The Last Gentleman

  Chapter 257 Death Pool

  【Hippocratic Hospital】

  The origin of the clinic, the place where doctors are selected, and the center for sorting, analyzing, and storing disease data. It is also the area with the highest medical level.

  Even internal staff can only enter and leave the hospital during specified time periods.

  For outsiders who want to set foot in the hospital, they need all kinds of cumbersome procedures and layers of approval.

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

   "Vice President Vesalius told us that if you need to take it to his office building immediately when you come to your door, we will follow up the relevant procedures."

   "Trouble."

  【Episode Center】

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

  Information on pathological changes between organizations, different types of diseases, pathological research conducted by gentleman doctors, important documents and reports, etc., are all stored in the form of books.

   It is rumored that most of the patients who have been captured alive are imprisoned here, and the death doctor under the command of Vesalius is in charge of the research.

  This building has no obvious entrance and exit, but black door-like picture frames are painted on some white walls.

  When Yi Chen approached one of the black picture frames under the signal of the security guard, he immediately felt a special force field sweeping across his body and a radio sound came out:

   "Special visitor William Behrens, the data has been backed up, green pass!

  Please go to the office of Vice President Andrei Vesalius according to the arrow on the ground. Do not deviate from the guidance on the way, otherwise you will be quarantined. "

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

  Among the same white passages, green arrow symbols appear on the ground, giving direction reminders in the form of gradual changes.

   circled around for a long time,

  The passage gradually transitioned from white to black, and finally came to the so-called office, more precisely, it should be called the "collection room", filled with the breath of death mixed with various creatures.

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

  Yi Chen, on the contrary, felt a kind of intimacy of going home, and even felt that the air here was 'fresh' than anywhere in Zion. He took a few big breaths one after another, and wisps of death black smoke appeared between his pupils.

   "Is my office okay?

   After you break through the limit and obtain a doctor's 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 atmosphere of death will not be much different. "

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

  It is similar to a fish tank, but the size is more than ten times larger, and it almost covers the entire wall.

  It is filled with a transparent liquid that can effectively preserve quality and curb disease. The corpses of various rare diseases either sink to the bottom, hang on rockery, or float on the water.

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

  In the corner of the office in the center, there is a two-meter-long iron nail with various heads on it. Although each head has a different shape, it still keeps its mouth open, constantly exhaling the breath of death.

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

   "The secret passage leading 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 doctors? "

   Vesalius asked about the doctor for the second time, and Yi Chen couldn't get away with it again.

   "That... I have already promised the "First Gentleman" to be his candidate, let's talk about it if I can't be elected. "

  Yi Chen’s answer caused Vesalius to be silent for a short while, and a different kind of serious words came out from under the bird’s beak mask: “Did you choose it subjectively, or did the first gentleman force you?”

   "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 embarrassment: "I don't have such a great ambition, but I just want to use my status as the [First Gentleman] to negotiate directly with Pichang to get more knowledge about Pichang.

   More for myself. "

   "Are you serious? You should be very clear about what it takes to become a first gentleman, right?"

   "Exactly."

  The metal eye sockets on the bird's beak mask watched Yi Chen's eyes. After getting the exact answer, Dr. Vesalius beckoned him to approach.

   "Have you brought anything?"

   "I brought it, but I used up two needles 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 determined to break through with me, even if the amount of the secret medicine is not enough, I can make up for you... Anyway, I have a lot of secret medicines related to death in my personal collection.

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

"it is good."

   "Come with me, I have prepared a special area for you to break through, and no one will disturb you."

  【Studio of the Dead】

  It is similar to a small workshop, with various operating tables, hydraulic tanks, and various colorful solutions placed aside. In addition, there are many death apprentices wearing masks similar to beaks, performing autopsy, transformation and even juice extraction of the dead.

  When Vesalius arrived, they all stopped their work and bowed as a gesture.

   Didn’t stop, but continued to go deeper into the laboratory, even requiring Vesalius to open a disk combination lock himself.

   Hiss hiss!

  Three hydraulic doors with different structures were opened one after another, and after continuing to pass through a narrow and lengthy passage that even required turning sideways, a pungent breath rushed over.

   What is presented in front of you is an 'indoor swimming pool',

   It's just that the pool water is completely black, bubbling, and even has a little dark golden oil spots, and some skin tissues, fingernails, and hair can even be seen floating on the water.

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

  He couldn't wait to jump in the pool and **** the liquid.

   "Thanks to the vice president! By the way, is this the death gathering point of the entire building?"

   "That's right, I'm used to collecting the essence that overflowed from the body of the dead, as well as the remaining essence during the experiment... here's an entire decade's worth."

   "Can I really use it?"

   "As long as you can use it, you can use it anyway. Anyway, I occasionally use it to make tea and take a bath on weekdays. I can't use it all by myself.

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

  Yi Chen nodded, and fell into a standard water entry action. When his head surfaced, Dr. Vesalius had temporarily left.

  Yi Chen is not in a hurry, first use the fabric straw derived from clothing to drink enough liquid, and when the whole body is filled with the breath of death, take out the gold box after everything is ready.

   "Phew! Let's go..."

this moment,

  Even Yi Chen's heartbeat would inevitably speed up.

  Open the gold box, hold up the biomass brain inside, and lean towards the center of the eyebrows looking for some kind of induction.

  The solid epileptic brain unexpectedly 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 tubes appeared in front of my eyes,

   In the blink of an eye, Yi Chen, who should have been soaked in the dead mucus, was already floating in the air at an altitude of several hundred meters.

  The surrounding environment becomes an open world full of tumors, overflowing with pus, and fluttering sick tentacles. There are even a large number of strangely shaped infected people living a strange life here.

  『This is... the old world before it was blocked? 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 state, he found that he had no hands at all, not even a torso and a brain.

  He turned into a nano-scale shell-shaped virus, to be precise, it should be called "epileptic shell".
