Chapter 257 Death Pool

 【Hippocrates Hospital】

 The origin of the clinic, the place where doctors are selected and the center where disease data is compiled, analyzed and stored. It is also the area where the highest level of medical care is organized.

 Even internal staff can only enter and exit the hospital within specified time periods.

  Outsiders who want to set foot in the hospital need various complicated procedures and layers of approvals.

However, Yi Chen, who was standing in front of the gate, just showed a special business card to the doorman and was immediately ushered into the hospital. There were even security guards to guide him.

“Vice Dean Vesalius has told us that if you come to visit and need to be taken to his office building immediately, we will handle the relevant procedures later.”

 “Trouble.”

  【Disease source center】

 A huge, sealed white square building, you can feel obvious magnetic shielding when you get close to it. This white building material itself has a strong shielding effect.

 Information on pathogenesis among organizations, different types of diseases, pathological studies conducted by gentleman doctors, important documents and reports, etc., are all included in the form of books.

It is rumored that most of the patients who were captured alive were imprisoned here, and were studied by the Death Doctor under the command of Vesalius.

This building has no obvious entrances and exits, only black door-like frames painted on some white walls.

At the security guard's signal, when Yi Chen approached one of the black frames, he immediately felt a special force field sweep across his body and a radio sound came out:

“Special visitor William Behrens, data has been backed up, green access!

Please follow the arrow directions on the ground to the office of Vice President Andrea Vesalius. Do not deviate from the directions on the way, otherwise you will be quarantined. "

The black door frame temporarily disappeared, and Yi Chen immediately stepped inside.

 In the same white passages, green arrow symbols appear on the ground, giving direction reminders through gradual changes.

 Walking around for a long time,

The passage gradually transitions from white to black, and finally reaches the so-called office, or more accurately, it should be called the "collection room", filled with the smell of death mixed with various creatures.

Ordinary gentlemen and even apprentices need to wear isolation suits and special masks in advance when they come here. Otherwise, the body will age faster if exposed to such an environment for a long time.

On the contrary, Yi Chen felt a sense of intimacy at home, and even felt that the air here was 'fresher' than anywhere else in Zion. He took a few big breaths, and wisps of black smoke of death appeared between his pupils.

“Is my office nice?

 After you break through the limits and obtain a medical license, you can set up an office with the same decoration style next door, and then connect it to mine through experimental equipment, and the death atmosphere will not be much different. "

Dr. Vesalius’s voice came from the side. He was still wearing a beak mask and was standing in front of the unique [corpse tank] in the office.

 Similar to a fish tank, except that it is more than ten times larger and almost covers the entire wall.

 It is filled with a transparent liquid that can effectively preserve the quality and contain the disease. The corpses of various rare disease objects are either sunk at the bottom, hung on the rockery, or floating on the water.

 In addition to the corpse vat, there are also various corpse specimens hanging on the wall.

There is a two-meter-long iron nail standing on the corner of the office in the center, with various heads on it. Although each head has a different shape, it still has an open mouth, constantly exuding the breath of death.

Yi Chen did not directly answer the question of whether he wanted to be a doctor, but said: "It's really good~ Vice President Vesalius, what is the door behind you?"

“The secret passage that leads directly to my studio. I spend most of my working time there. I need to deal with many dead people on weekdays and use their bodies to explore the essence of [death medicine].

 Are you interested in being a doctor? "

 Vesalius asked about the doctor for the second time, and Yi Chen could no longer muddle through.

"Well...I have promised the "First Gentleman" to be his candidate. If I can't be chosen, let's talk about it. "

Yi Chen's answer made Vesalius silent for a moment, and a different serious word than usual was squeezed out from under the beak mask: "Did you choose it subjectively, or did the first gentleman force you to do it?"

  “I wanted to do it myself.”

“Are you willing to contribute to the inheritance of human civilization?”

Yi Chen shook his head and said with an embarrassed look: "I don't have such great ambitions. I just want to use my status as [First Gentleman] to directly negotiate with the leather field and get more knowledge about leather.

 More for myself. "

"Are you serious? You should know what it takes to be the first gentleman, right?"

 “That’s right.”

The metal eye sockets on the bird's beak mask stared into Yi Chen's eyes. After getting the exact answer, Dr. Vesalius waved him over.

 “Have you brought anything?”

"I brought it, but I used two syringes before, so I don't know if it's enough." Yi Chen put 3/4 bottle of Twilight Silver Liquid on the desk.

“If you are sure you want to make a breakthrough here, I can make up for you even if the amount of secret medicine is insufficient... Anyway, I have a lot of secret medicine related to death in my private collection.

"Twilight Silver Liquid" I still have three bottles here, which are enough for you. "

"good."

“Come with me, I have prepared a special area suitable for you to break through. No one will disturb you.”

  【Studio of the Dead】

 Similar to a small workshop, various operating tables, hydraulic tanks and colorful solutions are placed aside. In addition, there are many death apprentices wearing beak-like masks here who perform the work of dissecting, transforming and even extracting juice from the dead.

　　When Vesalius arrived, they all stopped what they were doing and bowed.

He did not stop, but continued to go deeper into the laboratory, even requiring Vesalius to open a disc code lock himself.

 Hssssssssssssssss!

Three hydraulic doors with different structures were opened one after another. After continuing through a narrow and long passage that even required turning sideways, a pungent smell hit the face.

 What is presented in front of you is an ‘indoor swimming pool’.

It’s just that the water in the pool is completely black, bubbling, and even has some dark golden oil spots. You can even see some skin tissue, fingernails, and hair floating on the water.

 But Yi Chen didn't feel sick. Instead, drool overflowed from the corner of his mouth and he quickly wiped it away with his sleeve.

 He even couldn't wait to jump into the pool and **** the liquid inside.

“Thank you, Vice President! By the way, is this the death gathering point of the entire building?”

“Yes, I am used to collecting the essence that spilled out of the dead body and the remaining essence during the experiment... here is a full ten years’ worth.”

 “Can I really use it?”

“As long as you can use it, you can use it whatever you want. Anyway, I occasionally use it to make tea, take a bath, etc., and I can’t use it all by myself.

 Hurry in, and when you have completely entered the "diaphragm state", I will come in and inject you with the secret medicine. "

Yichen nodded and made a standard water entry action. By the time his head surfaced, Dr. Vesalius had temporarily left.

Yi Chen was not in a hurry. He first drank a sufficient amount of liquid using the fabric straw derived from the costume. When his whole body was filled with the aura of death, he took out the gold box when everything was ready.

 “Phew! Let’s begin…”

this moment,

Even Yi Chen can’t help but feel his heart beat faster.

 Open the golden box, pick up the biomass brain inside, and move it toward the center of your eyebrows in search of some mysterious feeling.

The solid epileptic brain actually created a layer of ripples when it touched the scalp, directly penetrating into the cranial cavity and combining with Yi Chen's own brain.

  【epilepsy】

 A dark ancient text arranged in a tube appeared in front of my eyes.

 In the blink of an eye, Yi Chen, who should have been soaked in death slime, was already floating in the air at a height of several hundred meters.

The surrounding environment has become an open world filled with tumors, overflowing with pus, and fluttering tentacles of disease. There are even a large number of grotesque infected people living a weird life here.

　　　　This is...the old world before the blockade? These sick people are the former inhabitants of the old world... They can't seem to see me. 』

Just when Yi Chen wanted to examine his condition, he discovered that he had no hands at all, not even a torso or a brain.

 He turned into a nanoscale shell-like virus, which should be called "epileptic shell" to be precise.
