Deep in the Living

Chapter 211 Freshmen
≮Fear Identity: Murderer≯

≮Horror tags: [Pursuit], [Beard], [Unknown], [Pressure]≯
≮Please replenish nutrients for your pituitary gland (seeds of fear) until it is full* by spreading fear and creating fear. ≯
*After becoming full, the body will reach its limit and it will be unable to develop further in the human world. It must go to a corner to proceed to the next step.

……

hum!
The lights went out and it was pitch black.

Rody's consciousness began to rise in the darkness, and began to leave this special, short-lived "space of fear", retreating to his body.

hum!
Consciousness returns.

The whole process is not a "projection" like going to the real hell, but a "sinking and floating".

It was as if the consciousness that resided in the body was separated and sank, sinking into the ground and heading towards the back of the earth.

Now it is time to return to the ground and get back into the body. It is a very intuitive process.

When Rody opened his eyes,

What was before him was not the dean's office, but a preaching room hung with hooks.

Obviously, Mr. Hawke, like him, was looking forward to the changes brought about by the pituitary union, or in other words, wanted to see what the system of Rody's world was like.

Ding Ding Ding!
The hooks hanging on the roof began to collide with each other, as if they were wary of Rody, the alien, just as if the monitor had come to the preaching room.

But as Hawke reached up and grabbed, all the hooks stopped moving.

Staring at the young man in front of him whose appearance remained unchanged, Hawke caught a glimpse of subtle gray, sometimes appearing between the pupils and sometimes between the skin.

"Oh? Your body seems to be the same as before, but also a little different... Even though you are still wearing the restraint ring, I can feel a subtle sense of danger."

"Mr. Hawke, I think I can remove the restraint ring."

"If you remove it, you may be sent to the Spinemen at any time...Are you ready to serve?"

Rody, who was thin and weak, slowly touched the restraint ring that ran through his cervical vertebrae and explained:
"Now, I can use my own abilities to restrain the connection between the spine and the real hell. I no longer need a restraining ring."

After all,

Rodina's right hand, which was touching the restraint ring, began to turn a dark gray, and then a tentacle emerged from the palm of his hand, easily removing the restraint ring.

While dismantling,

This small tentacle drills into the gap between the cervical vertebrae and can also block the uploading of consciousness.

When the tentacles show,

Mr. Hawke's eyes narrowed into slits, and an inexplicable smile appeared at the corners of his mouth.

"Interesting, really interesting... Your world can actually give you such a strange and dangerous system characteristic. If you can master this ability, I wonder how much fun it will be to serve the Spinemen.

You've made me want to disguise myself as a spine hunter and go take a look.

The dual world system, each system is top-notch and is truly God's choice.

It’s been a long time since I’ve met a creature as interesting as you.”

As Rody's restraint ring was replaced,

The tentacles can accurately block the uploading of consciousness and no longer have a restraining effect on the spine itself. Streams of warm currents from hell are being released from the spine, and a steady stream of hell power is being released throughout the body through the blood vessels.

The physical weakness caused by this month's confinement is recovering rapidly.

"Thank you Mr. Hawke."

"Bring me some more pituitary glands... When you are truly ready and plan to serve, remember to notify me. I can take a leave to see how you perform."

"Ok."

……

sizzle!
A large amount of steam filled the dean's office, and the high temperature even triggered the fire alarm.

The two middle-aged men who said they were going to practice Tai Chi were actually just standing outside the door waiting quietly. When they heard the fire alarm being activated, they rushed into the room immediately.

A large amount of white steam made visibility in the office extremely low.

Simultaneously,

They could also glimpse a strange gray among the white steam.

Open windows and doors and wait until the steam has completely dissipated.

Rody was sitting in his office chair, breathing heavily. His eyes were no longer dull as before, but full of luster.

The thin and shrunken body has recovered, exuding the deadly vitality of youth.

"Congratulations to my fellow countryman for completing the alien diet!"

Yu Ze was the first to stand up and congratulate, then he took out a document from the dressing room and threw it on the table: "The transfer documents have been prepared for you in advance. As long as your diet is smooth, you can complete the conversion from trainee investigator to regular investigator in advance, and you will also have the opportunity to interview at the Capital Investigation Bureau.

Sign it if you can.”

"Are there more cases in the capital?" As Rody spoke, hot sulfur air was still coming out of his mouth.

Yu Ze pinched his brows and laughed helplessly, "Hahaha~ I guess you're the only one in the world who still asks questions and hesitates when facing this document. I signed first and then asked questions.

What do you think, fellow countryman?

The center of the country, the place closest to the corner, even in the World Bureau there is a [gate] leading directly to the corner, do you think there won’t be many incidents there?”

"Row."

After Luo Di signed, the document with the internal chip took effect immediately. The personal archives of the Capital Investigation Bureau also immediately obtained the same file information and labeled Luo Di as [pending for interview].

"when are we leaving?"

"Why are you in such a hurry? You still need to go to the Pluto City Investigation Bureau to handle the relevant transfer procedures. You should have some important things in your residence, right? We will leave after you have everything settled.

Anyway, because of your incident, Yun and I got a whole week's vacation."

"Row."

at this time,

Yun suddenly came up and stared at Luo Di's body from a close distance.

"Temporary weakness, is this your body? It feels so hard... so good! If you can pass the interview and join our department,

The three of us can form a complete adventurer team.

You are a warrior, my senior is a mage, and I am an assassin! La la la, it’s time to defeat the devil!
Wait, that's not right~ The adventurer team should also have a priest who can help with healing and blood replenishment. Hey, it seems that we need to recruit another person."

Rody stared at the underage-looking girl in front of him, totally unaware of what she was talking about.

He stood up and walked towards the two middle-aged men standing at the door.

"Dean, Director Wang, thank you for your hard work."

The dean, however, looked melancholy. "Ah~ It's not hard! The longer you stay here, the happier I am... But you are about to go to the capital, so I guess you won't come here in the future, right?"

"I will come. The Fifth Hospital is very important to me."

After receiving such a reply, the dean immediately perked up, "That's good! Anyway, I'm always here. If you come, just call me in advance and I'll arrange the office for you.

And you just called the wrong person. This person is not Director Wang, but Deputy Director Wang."

Wang Shuokang didn't care. "It's okay, it's okay. You can call me whatever you want. Since there's nothing to do here, I'll go back first. There are still a lot of things waiting for me to deal with in Jupiter City."

Before leaving, Wang Shuokang also placed his hand on Luo Di's shoulder.
"The situation in the capital is far more complicated than you think. No matter where you are, you must do your best. If you have any questions that you can't solve, it may help you to go back to your hometown for a few days."

"Thank you, Director Wang."

Luo Di personally saw Wang Shuokang off from the hospital. He was sincerely grateful for his care and concern.

Luo Di also prepared to go directly to the single apartment to pack his luggage. The videos and diaries sent from Jupiter City last time should also arrive. He didn't expect that he would have to move again before he even settled down.

"My fellow countryman, do you want to have dinner together?" Yu Ze's voice came from behind.

"You guys go ahead, I'm not hungry for the time being."

Yu Ze did not force it this time. He could see that Luo Di needed to be alone. "Okay, send me a message when you've finished things here. Then we can go to the capital together."

"Ah."

……

【Youth Apartment-Room 1107】

Rody came back here for the last time holding the package sent from Jupiter City. In fact, there was not much that needed to be cleaned up. He just needed to take the things related to the investigator.

As he was cleaning the house,
The mountaineering backpack hanging in the closet brought Rody's thoughts back to more than a month ago, when he first came here and needed to use this backpack to carry a certain spherical object.

He reached out and grasped the zipper of his backpack, sliding it open gently.

Of course there wouldn't be any black hair or pale skin in it, nothing at all. The backpack had been emptied when the squad leader was reborn.

but,

There was an extra note inside the backpack that was obviously empty, just like the small notes passed between classes during school days.

"Rodi, remember to take care of yourself when you go to the capital.
——Wu Wen
