Chapter 32: The Ghastly Hospital

Page (1/3)
【Lihu Third People’s Hospital.】
【The best hospital in Lihu City.】
【For the past three months, this hospital has been shrouded in an eerie atmosphere.】
【Everyone who has entered this hospital has never come out.】
【Clearance Requirement: Kill the patient in Room 1136.】
【The narrator will provide you with necessary information about the instance at all times.】
【You can contact other Creators via your Stability Watch.】
【Number of survivors: 10/10】

The text before his eyes gradually dissipated.
A pristine white corridor appeared before Ron.
A faint scent of disinfectant lingered in the air, tickling his nose.
Ron glanced at the bottom left.
The Narrator gave the current prompt:
【Please do not be discovered by the security guards; they will expel all unauthorized personnel.】

Bai Lu once said that the purpose of sending Creators into recommended instances is to clear them, not to send them to their deaths.
Therefore, the World Consciousness provides narration to assist them.
The narrator will provide information on everything you come into contact with.
As the number of attempts increases, the information about the instance becomes more complete, making it easier to clear.
However, all this information is watered by the lives of the Creators.

Ron found a secluded spot and opened his watch to see how the others who had been sent in were faring.
【One Mouth Three Pigs: F*ck! What the hell are these guards! They won't stop chasing me, damn it!】
【Durian Coffee: Hehe, the nurse is so pretty.】
【One Mouth Three Pigs: Someone help me! I can't shake them off!】
【Durian Coffee: Hehehe, the doctor is pretty too.】
“……”
Ron was silent for a long moment, then stood up to survey his surroundings.
Perhaps because someone had lured away the vast majority of the guards, Ron encountered no obstacles along the way.
He quickly found the path to the inpatient building.
Then, just as he was about to go inside to investigate, the narrator popped up a prompt.
【Unauthorized personnel are not allowed to enter the inpatient building.】
The Demon Cat on his shoulder also let out an uneasy cry, as if warning him that it would be extremely dangerous to go any further.
It was not that simple after all.
Ron turned around silently.
He would leave this area for future exploration.

He was a man who knew when to listen to advice.
Just then, his watch vibrated slightly, indicating that someone had discovered important information.
【Durian Coffee: Brothers! I successfully made it into the inpatient building!】
【Thirteenth Lord: Holy crap! You’re a legend, man! How did you do it?!】
【Durian Coffee: I harassed a nurse and got hauled off as a mental patient.】
Seeing this, Ron couldn't help but crack a smile.
Damn it, what kind of people are these!
However, Durian Coffee’s words gave Ron a brand-new idea.
Since unauthorized personnel aren't allowed in, I’ll just make myself authorized!
With his mind made up, Ron headed straight for the registration desk.
【You cannot register without a health insurance card.】
This was the prompt given by the narrator.
Ron ignored it completely.
“Health insurance card.”
Through the window of the registration desk, Ron vaguely saw a woman wearing a white coat, but he could never quite make out her face.
No! It wasn't that he couldn't see clearly.
She simply had no ears or nose.
Ron glanced at the information provided by the Eye of the Demon King and learned that her ears and nose were currently undergoing treatment in the Otolaryngology Department.
Well, that was reasonable.
Ron took out his [Demon All-in-One Card] and handed it to her.
She didn't show the slightest doubt; she took the card and asked, “What department are you registering for?”
Since he hadn't been able to see which department was on the 11th floor, Ron randomly picked one:
“Cardiovascular Department.”
She lowered her head and began typing on the keyboard.
A moment later, she handed the registration slip along with the card back to Ron.
Ron glanced at the information on the slip and immediately headed to the Cardiovascular Department.
Now, he needed a certificate of admission so that he could legitimately stay in the cardiovascular ward.
The door to the office was open, and there was one patient ahead of Ron.
The bald doctor looked at the patient’s file and put on a kind expression: “I have a general understanding of your condition. Let me take a look at your heart first.”
With that, he pressed the patient down without further ado and thrust his right hand into the man’s chest.
When he pulled his hand out, a beating heart was pulsing slowly in his palm.
The doctor examined the heart in his hand and said quite seriously: “There’s a bit too much fat on the heart; the blood vessels might be clogged.”
“Are you listening to me?” He looked up, only to see the heartless patient collapse limply to the floor.
“Damn it!” the bald doctor cursed, “Is his constitution really that poor?”

No, with a treatment method like that, no one’s constitution could withstand it, right?
Ron’s mouth twitched, and he already felt like backing out.
Perhaps because no one had ever registered through the proper channels before, the narrator didn't provide any prompts this time.
“Number 26, Ron.” The bald doctor called out, looking up at him.
Ron, who had been ready to leave, stopped in his tracks immediately.
【Name: Bald Doctor】
【Occupation: Doctor】
【Gender: Male】
【Introduction: A doctor at the monster containment hospital, responsible for preparing food for the monsters. Only those with a powerful constitution can survive his treatment—of course, those with money can too.】
【Note: If you try to run, he will kill you instantly.】
Why is your name just "Bald Doctor"…
Ron was speechless, but he sat down across from the doctor as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
He took out his [Demon All-in-One Card] and pushed it toward the doctor: “Here’s fifty thousand. I want to be admitted.”
“Sir, this is a hospital.” The bald doctor wore an expression of disgust.
“Eighty thousand. I’ll give you eighty thousand.” Ron made a new offer.
“Sir, we are not allowed to accept bribes here.” The bald doctor said righteously.
“One hundred thousand…”
Before Ron could finish his sentence, the bald doctor’s hand was already pressed firmly on the card.
“But, some accommodations can be made.” The bald doctor put on his professional face.
Thanks to the bald doctor’s swift handling, Ron’s admission process was completed in no time.
“Sir, which hospital gown would you like to choose?” A stunning nurse smiled and placed three sets of gowns in front of Ron.
【Standard Gown】: A basic hospital gown with no special functions.
【Exquisite Gown】: A more beautiful gown with meticulously treated seams, the perfect choice for sensitive skin.
【Advanced Gown】: A specially treated gown that can resist some mental attacks. (Can be converted into an item card)
Looking at the three options, Ron touched the card in his hand and asked: “What’s the charge?”
“The Bald Doctor said you are a VIP guest, so there is no extra charge,” the nurse said, handing over a bottle of medicine. “This is an admission gift from the Bald Doctor personally.”
Damn… you actually call him the Bald Doctor.
Ron mused to himself as he used the Eye of the Demon King to see the information on the medicine.
【Sanity Supplement (100 tablets)】: Clears all current negative mental status effects. (Can be converted into an item card)
Holy crap!
It seems that one hundred thousand was well spent.
