Chapter 280 Gift

　　　Researcher-Erwan Pound》

It was the employee who had his whole face pressed into the recognition device,

 Yi Chen already has 26 identical identity cards in his pocket.

  【Cycle】

As long as you walk through the security door opened by the researcher, you will be back to the starting point in a while, and you will see another "wonderful performance" of employees bumping into each other. They are all the same person, and the cards that fall out are also the same.

Of course, there are no other options other than the safety door.

The circulation structure of the passage is in an 'L shape'. After passing through the security door, you only need to go through a corner to return to the original corridor.

 It is completely different from the exploration plan Yi Chen expected.

Not only can’t I get out of the institute, I can’t even get out of this L-shaped corridor.

With Yi Chen's current means, it is impossible to solve the problem. No matter whether it is the attack of death or the iron chain pulling out the wall, the damaged wall will not only be repaired quickly, but its thickness will also be immeasurable.

The deepest time, Yi Chen turned the black liquid into a drill bit and drilled a full ten meters, but the wall structure was still there.

If you choose to go back, you will be blocked by a blocked safety door, which is also indestructible.

 Looping down one after another,

 There was no threat from nightmares, nor any unnecessary changes. Little Grape even ran out for some air, and nothing was found visually.

Yi Chen had no choice but to sit next to the researcher whose face was smashed, and calm down to think about ways to break the situation.

“After the nightmare substance is destroyed, it will no longer appear. What is left here is only an endless cycle. Little Grape can’t detect anything even with my superposition of perceptions.

 Is it possible that there is no so-called ‘entrance/exit’ here?

 Or should I say that the corresponding nightmare area in the dream area I am currently in has been terminated by me? All I have to do is wait until the three hours in the outside world are up before I'm woken up? "

Yichen began to dig into his previous memories and recalled his nightmare experience while making clothes, and suddenly discovered the key to the problem.

"right!

At that time, I was waiting for clothing production in the lower area. I unconsciously entered a nightmare and failed to recognize myself at the first time.

Following the guidance of the dream, I was immediately attacked when I put on the costume disguised as nightmare material, and then woke up in a deeper dream.

Still unable to realize the problem of nightmares, I continue to be led by the nose, and I am once again invaded by the tentacles of nightmares. I continue to go to the depths of nightmares and wake up again.

This time I finally realized the problem and used various means to get myself out of the dream.

 If you think of each ‘waking up’ as ‘walking down one level on the dream ladder’.

 I was already on the [Third Level] at that time.

 It’s different now. Due to my preparation and personal breakthrough, I noticed the abnormality from Jin’s body and recognized myself from the beginning. I am currently only staying on the [first level].



The way to climb the stairs to the depths of the dream world is... to actively accept the invasion of nightmare substances. "

Little Putao was so frightened that she heard the conclusion Yi Chen came to.

"Hey! Don't mess around. This is just our first exploration, and it's enough to get here. Don't engage in such unknown and dangerous actions."

Yi Chen's expression was extra serious, and he was really excited.

“You can’t go back empty-handed, right? The institute has spent a lot of manpower and material resources on us.

 At least I need to verify the inference I drew. Since I was able to escape from the third floor last time, this time I only went deep into the second floor and left. Should it be okay?

Moreover, how can we try to understand and dispel such a mysterious pathogen that threatens organizations without taking any risks? "

 “Okay~ Anyway, I just provide visual help.”

 The mind has been decided,

　　哐婷啷~An iron chain with plant characteristics grew from the palm of his hand, got into the head of the employee whose face was smashed on the side, and absorbed the brain matter.

 However, as Little Putao observed, this employee’s nightmare content was very small, and there would be no reaction even if he took the initiative to absorb it.

Yichen had no choice but to get up and return to the original dressing room, looking at the decayed and broken tentacle fragments scattered on the ground.

Without hesitation, he picked up a piece and put it in his mouth to chew.

 “Huh? It’s surprisingly delicious.”

 The tentacle pieces taste a bit like burnt squid tentacles, but there is no burnt smell. Instead, there is a light pepper and ocean aroma, and the crispness is just right.

 The tentacles that were chewed and swallowed turned into rich ink-colored gas in Yichen's stomach.

 With all the tentacles swallowed...buzz!

There was a brief stagnation and darkness in consciousness. When his vision became clear, Yi Chen was suspended in the isolation room by fishing lines, as if he had just woken up from a dream.

It’s just that there is no Jin or Reagan beside him, and the surrounding environment is quite dark. At a glance, it is clear that he is still in a dream.

The radio sounded at this moment, and intermittent, electronic noise came from it. If you listen carefully, it seems that the voices of multiple women are blended together:

"You...you are the first "dreamer" who is willing to take the initiative to delve deeper. I have specially prepared a gift for you, go and get it. "

 The broadcast ends and the fishing line is lowered.

Yi Chen moved his body and couldn't help but smile.

“Sure enough, if you want to go to the deep nightmare, you need to ingest nightmare substances, whether passively or actively.

 Somewhat surprisingly, the guy behind the nightmare stopped pretending.

However, it’s better to be careful...』

As soon as Yi Chen walked into his private dressing room, an exquisitely packaged black and white gift box was prominently placed on the center seat, with a small white card attached to it.

William received it, please be sure to open it [with your own hands]≯

  The word "hands" is emphasized,

The smiling expression signed at the end is obviously very ordinary but seems very inconsistent here. It even reminds Yi Chen of the vaguely retained smile of the employee who smashed his face into pieces.

Just when Yi Chen reached out to unpack the package, Little Grape's voice immediately came:

"Hello! You don’t really want to solve it yourself, do you? What if it's a trap...it might drag you directly into a deeper nightmare, or even take the opportunity to invade your mind. 』

“My intuition tells me that since I’m here to explore information, it might be better to follow the instructions on the card. 』

"what ever! 』

Of course, Yi Chen couldn't be unguarded.

As he reached out to touch the gift box, the muscles in his arms were completely tense, and the brain cells hidden between the muscles were fully activated. You could even see the sulcus circuits slowly creeping on the surface of the tensed muscles.

 The reaction speed is increased to several times that of normal.

Once he detects an abnormality during the process of opening the gift box, Yi Chen will instantly switch to the dead man's makeup and let the needle **** fill his brain to avoid being suddenly invaded by nightmare substances.

˜Unlock the bow ribbon on the surface of the gift box and the black and white paper outer packaging,

When your finger first touches the gift box body inside, some kind of touch switch hidden between the gift boxes is activated.

Snapped!

 A burst of black shadow suddenly jumped out from between the gift boxes.

Ha ha ha ha! Weird laughter echoed in the locker room.

  There is no threat,

What was shaking in front of Yi Chen's eyes was a lifelike doll's head, with an extremely rigid spring connected to the lower end. The doll's head was even deliberately made to look like gold.

The colorful mask moved up slightly, just enough to reveal the mouth.

　　Compared to Jin’s mouth, the doll’s lips were painted ink and maintained an exaggerated smile. Some kind of sound-producing device was installed inside, constantly emitting weird laughter.

 The neck where the doll's head is connected to the spring is very realistic and even bleeds continuously.

Yi Chen was not frightened, nor did he switch to the dead man makeup.

I picked up the gift box and looked at it for a while, and finally found that there was a special ink-colored card in the box, which was exactly the gift mentioned on the radio.

As Yi Chen took out this strange-textured card, the gift box stopped laughing.

at this time.



Bursts of electricity surged along the side walls of the locker room, quickly converging and penetrating Yi Chen's brain.

Buzz!

The whole person woke up instantly and was suspended in a bright isolation room by a fishing line. King and Reagan woke up next to him at the same time.

the difference is,

Yi Chen’s clenched right hand kept emitting black smoke.

 Opening the palm of his hand, he saw a card that exuded the aura of nightmare was held in it.
