Deep in the Living

Chapter 287 Awakening
Deep sleep.

This time Rody did not have any dreams about his school days.

Instead, he had a very strange dream. He dreamed that he turned into a piece of beef.

It was thrown onto the chopping board and then hit back and forth by the chef with a stick.

The strange thing is that even though the fascia and flesh were broken apart, Roddy could only feel a little pain, and more of a sense of comfort and relaxation.

When he was completely beaten into a pulp, the dream began to fade away.

What was a little strange was that Rody seemed to have completely accepted the fact that he was beef, and even wanted to be further processed into beef balls and thrown into the boiling soup pot to be cooked.

The dream ended and the strange thoughts disappeared.

but,

When Rody opened his eyes, he was no longer sleeping on the back of the crow, nor was he thrown on the roadside. Instead, he was in a metal secret room with special incense burning.

He was lying on a hard round bed, his clothes had been completely removed, and his raven colt and Fiona were nowhere to be seen.

At this moment, the body is continuing the feeling of dreaming, with an inexplicable sense of comfort, a feeling of complete relaxation, and a feeling of relieving all pressure and burden.

Huh~ha~
A heavy breathing sound came from beside him, making Rody realize that there seemed to be someone next to him, and it seemed to be the chef who was pounding the beef in his dream.

When Luo Di subconsciously tried to turn over, he found that although his spine could move, his body did not respond. After carefully feeling it, he found that his body was being beaten into a pulp, and only his spine remained unchanged.

The so-called chef is Sister Iron Pillar Agatha.

We are currently inside the monastery.

Agatha's warning came:

"Rodi, don't move.

The Crow carried you who was in a deep coma to the monastery. Fortunately, I found Mr. Hawke's recommendation letter directly on you, and I happened to be on the periphery, so I took you in as soon as possible.

It was detected that your body had already reached its limit of activity. Moreover, because you had just arrived in the real hell, you had a certain aversion to the world, and your body had been in a semi-tight state.

After I consulted the teacher, I was allowed to give you a "physical beating".

Your body has been beaten into its most primitive state of minced meat. You need to go to the healing pool to recover. The pool is next door. Do not move during this process, otherwise it will cause irreversible damage to your body. "

"Ok."

Rody only felt his body, like mud, being carried on Agatha's shoulders and sent to the next room.

A smell wafts into my nose.
It's like a mixture of gasoline and floral scent.

Pfft!
The meat-like body was thrown directly into the pool, with the face just able to float above the water and breathe normally.

"Huh?! What is this?"

Roddy could clearly feel some liquid penetrating his flesh, every acupuncture point in his body was stimulated, and every cell was greedily sucking in nutrients.

When sucking nutrients, you can clearly feel the needles poking the surface of the cells, and this feeling will become stronger and stronger.

Not only was his body repaired, but Roddy also felt an unprecedented sense of relaxation throughout his body.

If the physical casting gave him a nearly perfect hell-like human form,

The beating and repairing before his eyes made this humanoid body purer and more suitable for the real hell.

An hour passed.

Rody stood up and looked up and down at the reconstructed body. Occasionally, he could see a flash of metallic luster on the surface of the muscles.

Just as he nodded in satisfaction with his current body, Agatha, who was also standing in the room, nodded and even gave some comments:
"The spine and metal can be perfectly combined on a body, and your repair speed is faster than that of ordinary monks... No wonder Master Hawke specially recruited you."

Feeling Agatha's gaze, although Rody wanted to adapt to the local customs, he still subconsciously turned his body to the side, and even had to turn a certain angle.

His costumes and props were folded and placed on the other side of the pool.

Luo Di quickly put on his clothes and hung the pig's head around his waist.

"Where are the Crow Pony and the Levies' Backbone?"

"The crow colt has been sent to the Grand Monastery's [Pasture]. There are many hell beasts there. Your crow colt has been tested and found to have the attribute of pain. There is no problem raising it there.

If you're worried, you can go and have a look later.

As for the consciousness of the Spine, it is not allowed to enter the monastery. Its mission has been completed and it has been sent back through the teleportation array. "

"Okay." Rody is more concerned about the crow colt now. As for Feiji, it is a good thing to send it back in advance. If it encounters danger, it may not survive.

"Where are we going now?" "Your baptism will be held tomorrow morning. There is nothing to do today. Just follow me back to the accommodation area. Since you are a monk who came here temporarily, there is no dormitory arranged for you yet."

Besides, it seems like you won't be here for long, so why not just live with me."

"Is this good?"

Agatha didn't seem to understand what Rody meant. "What's good about this? As a nun, I have my own bedroom. We just met in advance. Didn't you promise to tell me the rest of the story?
In return, I will give you a quick tour of the place."

"Okay, is it far from here to the dormitory?"

"Not far... The Great Monastery is a miracle building of the real hell. Unlike the Hive City, we don't need any means of transportation here. We can migrate across the entire area just by walking."

Say it.

A kind of metal floated up in Agatha's palm. It was not an iron pillar, but a very delicate metal Rubik's Cube (3×3).

Each piece has its own unique metal color and pattern engraving.

“The essence of the Great Monastery is a magic cube space, with a total of 27 divisions, and the [Sanatorium] we are currently in is one of the divisions.

The Rubik's Cube in my hand changes in complete sync with the Great Monastery. If I want to go to a certain zone, I just have to wait until the blocks of the two zones are close to each other.

The Rubik's Cube changes every ten minutes.

The dormitory area we are going to is right below the sanatorium. We will be changing locations in five minutes. Hurry and follow me."

Before Rody could be amazed at the wonderful structure of the monastery, he was pulled out of the room by the other party... It must be said that Agatha was really strong. The sudden acceleration and pulling almost dislocated his arm.

The structure of the sanatorium was equally huge, and they were currently on the seventeenth floor.

Go down the stairwell quickly.
When you reach the bottom, you will find a "metal door" whose material structure is exactly the same as the Rubik's Cube.

After Agatha opened the door with force, it was pitch black inside, as if there was a disturbance in the space.

"Jump!"

"OK".

The two jumped into the door together, and did not land directly in the dormitory building or another stairwell, but fell down from a height of hundreds of meters.

Just as Rody was ready to kneel down and fall at high speed,
A magnetic force came from the ground and acted on his metal spine. The repulsive force offset the speed of his fall, and he landed steadily at a [crossroads].

Dark, foggy, and quiet.

It was completely different from the bright sanatorium before.

The thick fog restricted the field of vision to within ten meters, and no dormitory buildings could be seen for the time being.

However, there was a metal signpost at the intersection where the two were, pointing in four directions.

【Front-dormitory】

[Left-Single Dormitory]

[Right-Ascetic Dormitory]

【Post-Sequence Group Residence】

"Members of the Prologue also live here?"

“They just have their residences here. People like the teacher usually control an area in a large monastery.

They spend a lot of time resting in their own area and rarely come back here.”

"What is the ascetic dormitory?"

"Some monks need to practice asceticism in their sleep to gain spiritual strength. The ascetic dormitory is specially designed for them. Even the most basic sleep needs to be done in a painful state.

I belong to the carnal party, and it has nothing to do with me.”

"Are you having trouble sleeping?"

"No... those guys just need pain to fall asleep. If we don't give them enough pain, they will suffer from insomnia.

Rody, you have to learn to enjoy the pain slowly. I believe you will gradually adapt to it during your time in the monastery."

"Ok."

Rody already had a bad feeling, always feeling that there might be something strange hidden in Agatha's dormitory.
