Chapter 225 Rainy Night

  【Sunshine Hospital】

   Even if there is a sample of the patient that Yi Chen captured alive, there are still problems in the analysis work, and it is impossible to determine what the pathogen is, and even the type of disease cannot be judged.

   still refers to the pathogenic source as the "death factor".

   Only know that this unknown pathogen in the form of black liquid is equivalent to a "connection medium", which can connect and beautify various dead objects, and can reproduce the appearance and memory of the suicide without the need for a corpse.

   also got a terrible idea,

  If all the inhabitants of Ravenholm died, the whole city would be replaced by such dead.

   Sunshine Hospital immediately contacted all makeshift morgues where bodies were stored,

   Let the gentlemen sort out the appearance and address of the deceased tonight. Tomorrow, we will conduct an investigation specifically on the residence of the deceased, in an attempt to capture more dead and sick people.

in addition,

   Mr. Helvoye also had further autopsy breakthroughs.

  According to the patients brought back by Yi Chen, samples were analyzed for this black liquid with connecting effect.

   It was soon discovered that this black liquid was only liquid when it was attached to the dead animal, and it had the relevant function of "connecting medium".

  Once the attachments are removed, the black liquid will immediately evaporate into a gaseous state, lose its color and become completely transparent, making it difficult to capture with the naked eye.

   Staring at the rapidly gasifying liquid, an aura flashed in Helvoye's mind.

   "Come with me Lotson, I seem to know how this gas is produced!"

   Back to the operating room.

   Mr. Helvoye pushed a shelter for the sick.

   First put a living dead person who has completed brain transplantation in it, and put blades, poisons and other props that can be used for suicide in the containment chamber.

  After everything was ready, the two exited the operating room and closed the doors and windows, creating a perfect suicide space for the living dead.

  Wait ten minutes to reopen the door.

   The living dead whose brains were transplanted had indeed committed suicide,

   Immediately extract the gas in the containment chamber for detection and analysis, and its composition is exactly the same as the gas obtained by evaporating the black liquid.

   "Sure enough!

   The 'last breath' exhaled by a suicide victim who sees the symbol is this pathogen.

  These gaseous substances carry the memory of the deceased before they were alive. After exhaling, they will temporarily attach themselves to the surrounding environmental substances, and slowly find opportunities to gather mice in the sewers, passing insects, or birds outside the house, or rotten meat in the kitchen.

  By connecting, transforming, and disguising foreign objects, you can gradually construct the [dead] itself and give it memory, making it real.

   As the number of dead increases, more and more dead will appear, eventually occupying the entire city of Levinholm.

   At present, the 'last breath' only plays a connecting role, and only takes effect on dead animals. The deceased are supposed to pretend to be citizens and live a normal life as much as possible.

  The real death threat may not yet come! When the dead reaches a certain number, death will come completely.

   Moreover, the source of the transmission of the [symbol] is still unclear, and the corresponding 'thing' behind this incident is definitely something that the organization has never encountered since its establishment.

  This matter must be reported, and if necessary, I am afraid that the city of Levinholm really needs to be abandoned. "

   Just as Helvoye was engrossed in the question of death,

   A large needle filled with blood was directly pierced into his neck, and red blood vessels quickly spread throughout his body, taking ownership of his body.

"Um!?"

   The gentleman's clothes on Helvoye responded immediately, wanting to protect the master and drain the blood from the body.

  However, clothing with more than 50% leather content has been invaded, a kind of containment from the skin level, making it unable to play any role.

  【Two hours passed】

After Dean   Diss drew up a city-wide Search Warrant for the Dead and distributed it to each site, he came to the operating room as soon as possible.

When    knocked on the iron door of the operating room,

  Hervoye and his assistant Lotson were still playing with the living dead.

   "Combined with the black fluid flowing out of the patient's body, did your autopsy have any new findings?"

   Helvoye, who was undergoing a craniotomy, turned his head, and a normal voice came from under the medical mask: "No relevant connection has been found for the time being."

   "Okay, it's not early tonight, so don't make it too late."

   With the departure of the dean.

   Helvoye's mask also seeped blood, his eyes became weird, and he muttered: "The body of the transcender is really difficult to control..."

   As 'Hervoye' led the assistant out of the operating room, it happened that a thunder light flashed in the sky, and the strong light penetrated the window and shone on his face.

   At this moment, another unfamiliar middle-aged face appeared.

   If anyone has seriously read the incident record of the Holy Grail Mountain disease, they will definitely recognize at this moment that the person corresponding to this face is the baron living in the Holy Grail Mountain, which is connected to the root of [septicemia].

   "It's a dangerous city, I have to finish my work and leave quickly, otherwise I'll be sucked into the whirlpool of death."

  …

  Sunshine Hotel-19th Floor Superior Room.

   Yi Chen, who was lying on the sofa, woke up from a thunderstorm, and a dark shadow appeared in the slightly blurred vision that he had just opened.

  As the field of vision became clear, the shadow on the window sill slowly saw the specific outline.

   A woman who hanged herself,

  The white dress was soaked by the heavy rain, and the bottom of the skirt was dripping continuously,

   Wet dark yellow curly hair slumped over the shoulders,

  The eyeballs almost burst out from the sockets, and the black tongue sticks out,

  The arms hanging from the sides of the body begin to spread to the left and right. Once the arms are in a horizontal line, the hanging woman will take on the shape of a cross, and the knot around the neck also happens to correspond to the circle.

   As soon as the arm is about to be stretched out,

  OM~ The moonlight flashed.

   Yi Chen, who was supposed to be lying on the sofa, knelt down in front of the woman on one knee, holding a hand axe in the shape of a full moon in his right hand, instantly completing the slashing action.

   The moonlight slash that took effect on the spirit body directly tore the woman in half, and a large amount of black water poured out of the body, which was devoured by the mice generated by the moonlight.

   "Huh? It's a bit too much to let the [Dead] attack me directly..."

  Yi Chen got up, pressed the axe handle button with his thumb, restored the axe and hung it on his waist.

   Hearing the sound, Barry immediately put on his armor and came to the windowsill, where there was nothing left.

"what's the situation?"

   "The dead appeared on the windowsill just now."

   "What!?" Barry, who was not sober at first, was instantly refreshed.

   "The rest of the night may have to take turns vigil, Barry you..."

   Dong Dong!

   A sudden knock at the door interrupted their conversation.

   Just when Barry put on his helmet and looked at the door with his shield in hand, Yi Chen's warning sound came from behind him: "Don't look at the cat's eye..."

  Unexpectedly, Barry took out the mithril hammer bearing the family crest and threw it with all his strength.

  The door was smashed to pieces, and the heavy hammer was completely embedded in the wall opposite the corridor.

  The smashed wall is still seeping black liquid, if you peek into the cat's eye just now, you will see the cross pattern on the wall.

  Barry was so frightened that he retreated to the bedroom and put the large shield as a temporary door frame at the door.

   "Crooked Sun! Why did he suddenly come to the door in the middle of the night and let no one sleep..."

   "Don't want to sleep tonight, let's go down to the first floor of the hotel and tell the gentleman on duty what happened here."

"OK."

  Barry retrieved the large shield and hung it on his back.

   However, the coat of arms on the surface of the big shield turned into a cross at some point, and happened to be seen by Yi Chen... bang, he immediately swung out the chain and shot the big shield away.

   "Barry, your shield?"

   "Huh? Did you just attack me?"

   Barry's voice changed,

   When he turned around, the bucket helmet on his head also had a cross-shaped opening, and a strange smile appeared inside, and the corners of his mouth continued to seep black liquid.

   "William, you might as well just kill me and then kill yourself!

   Stop struggling, no one can leave this city alive, everyone will die…”

   As soon as he finished speaking, Barry rushed towards him like crazy.

   At this time, Yi Chen had already noticed a trace of disobedience, and used the acupuncture chain in his palm to whip a whip on himself.

Snapped! Wake up with eyes open.

  Yi Chen sat up from the sofa, the back of his hand was pierced by the iron chain needle, and bursts of stabbing pain hit his heart.

   Barry's snoring chorused with the rain outside, and no death struck.

   "It's interesting... Has it somehow affected my spirit?"

  Yi Chen almost had enough sleep, so he just sat on the sofa and meditated until dawn.
