Deep in the Living

Chapter 193 Restless Night

[Pluto City-The Fifth Hospital]

Dean Hawkins stayed in the hospital tonight and had no intention of going home.

He now has many children and grandchildren and does not need to worry about family matters at all. Instead, his family members are often worried about his health.

Now that the old man is getting more energetic day by day, his family is relieved to let him stay in the hospital. They are not worried at all even if he doesn’t go home. They can just chat with him via video occasionally.

The office drawer was filled with iron wires that he had bent by hand, all bent into a standard hook structure.

After completing the temporary work added tonight, Dean Hawkins stood up as usual and performed a set of Tai Chi.

Suddenly, a strong addiction came.

Although he tried his best to restrain himself, the addiction was stronger than ever, forcing him to interrupt his Tai Chi exercise. He could not bear it any longer and came to his desk.

Take out a wire from inside, insert the curved hook into the skin on the back of your hand, and then hook it out from the other end.

It's not as simple as just running through.
The dean also pinched the tail of the hook, gently lifted the piece of skin forward, and even began to pull it slowly and hard, feeling that the skin was about to be torn off.

The pain brought by this action made him feel extremely comfortable, and he was full of energy even though it was late at night.

As he raised the hook higher and higher, when the pain reached a limit, a voice sounded in his ears.

"Hawkins..."

The moment he heard the voice, the dean's office seemed to turn into a dark preaching room, but he did not reject it and instead began to wander around here.

It seemed as if he had been here many times in his dreams and he was not afraid at all. Instead, he felt like he was going home.

It was during the time that Dean Hawkins was hanging out in the preaching room.

His real body,

The body in the office had its entire eyeball covered with a layer of black film in the blink of an eye, and it exuded an aura of pain that could make all the hooks in the drawers shake and give them life.

"call……"

Hawke's return to this world won't last long, just enough time for him to watch a movie.

Just when he was about to watch "Saw" which he hadn't finished watching last time.

hum~
A tingling sensation came from his left hand.

He realized something and took the elevator to the top floor of the hospital.

Standing on the edge of the rooftop and looking in the direction where the pain comes from, it seems that I can directly peek into the ocean outside the city and that special island shrouded in stars.

"Rodi, are you in real trouble?
Such a small world can actually accommodate such a troublesome thing... Although it is just an incarnation, it is too weird. Ah! This is the disciple I met with great difficulty, I can't let him be destroyed."

The dean jumped directly from the top floor, stepped firmly on the lawn on the first floor, and walked quickly towards the hospital gate.

The dozing security guard saw that it was the dean and quickly stood up to greet him: "Dean, you are working overtime so late, please take care of yourself~ Do you need me to take you home?"

The dean didn't even look at him and walked straight out the door.

But the foot that was about to step out of the door froze in the air, and finally he pulled it back.

"It's okay, you can continue on duty, I still have some things to deal with."

"Yes Dean."

Hawke can still only move around in this area of ​​the hospital which is highly similar to the torture chamber. Once he tries to leave, his consciousness projection will be bounced back to the original world.

"The spinemen in hell will continue to kill on the battlefield even after their death... Stay alive, you bastard."

……

【Ten minutes ago】

The eye sister, who was deeply integrated with Rody, was forcibly separated when passing through the hotel door, causing her eyeballs to be squeezed out separately.

It was as if this was the real purpose of the gate.

Bang!

A wet eyeball squeezed through the flesh and fell on the cold hotel floor.

Hair quickly grew on the surface of the eyeball. When the hair spread out to the size of a lotus leaf, the eye sister's body quickly stood up and turned into her usual appearance.

From what we could see, we seemed to have entered the body of a giant creature.

More than half of the floor tiles are covered with some kind of mucous membrane, and inside these mucous membranes are buried white blood vessels, exuding a white luster.

This color is more dangerous than the previous green.

More than ten eyes grew under the sister's black hair, opening up her global vision, but no matter how she observed, she could not find any trace of Rody, not even a trace of his breath.

Just then,
Three dark shadows quickly approached from one direction in the hall, but Sister Yan was not alert because she had already seen the faces of the dark shadows clearly.

The visitors were Hua Yuan, Xia and Isabella.

Hua Yuan looked puzzled, "Where is Mr. Di?"

"The man I came in with... is gone. It seems like we were separated... in the gap. Sister Hua Yuan, your guess is correct. There are subtle colors in Mr. Di's brain.

I followed your instructions and didn’t tell him about this. I was planning to wait until I could reunite with you guys, but…”

Sister Yan was also very worried about Rody's condition, and even her speech became much clearer.

Hua Yuan's eyes suddenly became silent, revealing a strong sense of violation. She tried to contact Luo Di by "thought transfer", just like the situation when she got lost in the cave before.

But now there is no way to get in touch with her no matter what. Something beyond "missing" has completely blocked Hua Yuan out.

However, Hua Yuan was not surprised.

She seemed to have anticipated the worst possible scenario.

"As expected, Mr. Di has been given special care since he entered the island. The thing behind this island, the hidden monster incarnation, seems to be very interested in Mr. Di.

Both the nightmare and the experience in the cave can prove this.

Perhaps the monster incarnation saw through Mr. Di's identity as a connector from the beginning and wanted to target him.

Or maybe Mr. Di has some special attraction to him.

Even they knew each other before.

This so-called experiment or game is essentially to attract Mr. Di.

Letting him walk from the cave back to the hotel is equivalent to crossing the entire island, and along the way he will be exposed to different kinds of starlight colors, allowing these colors to color his brain.

The pure white that permeates the hotel is the last piece of the color puzzle.

If my conjecture is correct, the reason why the monster incarnation here is lurking is because his essence when he came to the world is not perfect.

He wanted to use this island to conduct carefully planned experiments to select a container that was most suitable for carrying him, and a body that could complete his incomplete incarnation.

At first, he just wanted to attract those outstanding pseudo-people who took the "Corner Wanted Order", but he didn't expect that Mr. Di, a better connector container, would come to the island.

No more nonsense! Hurry up and find Mr. Di's location, and you will definitely find the monster incarnation."

"Sister Hua, why didn't you let me tell Di in advance..."

"It's useless. It's already too late since we landed on this island.

The evil has taken root in his brain, and to eradicate it, he must kill the monster incarnation!

Rather than alerting the enemy, it is better to use Mr. Di as an anchor to locate the monster incarnation. There may be a glimmer of hope.

I just never expected that we would be forcibly separated as soon as we entered the hotel. I thought it would happen only when we reached a certain floor..."

"Can he still survive?" Xiaoyan seemed very worried about this.

Hua Yuan's tone was completely cold. "Once it is confirmed that Mr. Di has been completely possessed by the monster incarnation and there is no possibility of separation, I will kill him personally."

The four sisters were about to take action.
The entire hotel lobby became restless.
Hotel staff and guests with tentacles wriggling on their faces and body structures that were out of the human realm began to appear, peeling off from the walls of flesh and blood, blocking the four people's way.

……

Same night.

On a night bus heading from Earth City to Pluto City.

A young man who was sleeping was suddenly awakened by something he dreamed about. He counted with his fingers and his face turned ugly.

He showed his ID to the driver and got off the bus.

And then, the passengers on the bus saw a scene they would never forget.

The young man took out a string of copper coins from his waistband and scattered them into the air.

A flash of golden light,
Copper coins become swords,

The young man even stepped onto the sword and disappeared into the night sky at a speed far exceeding that of a bus.
