I am a demonic cultivator, not a capitalist with a conscience.

Chapter 322 I've Realized It (16)

Although Li Cheng was extremely dissatisfied with Zhang Yi's behavior of turning his adrenaline into a dream after it was so exciting, she decided to forgive him after he explained his reasons.

While fiddling with his phone, Zhang Yi said seriously, "Actually, I'm a complete newbie when it comes to dream games, the kind of person who's really bad at them."

"and then?"

"To be honest, I was able to get to level five of 'The Haunted Hospital' entirely thanks to Xiao Yi's guidance. I did whatever she told me to do. Without her guidance, I wouldn't know why the patients were dying so suddenly, and why I wasn't allowed to dissect their bodies to investigate the cause of death."

"Because you don't have a morgue, and patients' bodies need to be autopsied in the morgue. And the reason they died so quickly is probably because you gave out too much water and didn't build any toilets. Also, don't block the exits. If patients can't find the exits, they'll wander around the hospital and die from exhaustion."

"I see. I thought the fifth level was just about watching these little people die."

Seeing the serious-looking doctor Zhang Yi, Li Cheng gasped.

If you can't even play a dream game, what else can you do?
And you're a typical living devil, so you'd charge human lives at wholesale prices, right?

Thankfully, playing in the dream world doesn't deduct merit points, otherwise you'd be in the negative by now.

After confirming that Zhang Yi genuinely didn't know how to play Dreamscape, Li Cheng asked while setting up the environment, "Why don't you know how to play games?"

"It's probably innate. I can watch others play games, but I definitely have problems playing them myself."

"I see. So why did you suddenly decide to play competitive mode?"

"I read the update notes and found that the symptoms in the later updates actually exist in reality. Although the author is anonymous and stylizes it, the various treatment methods still hide some legitimate treatment methods. Therefore, I want to see more of the treatment methods in it."

Li Cheng suddenly realized: "I see. In the competition mode, as long as one side doesn't go bankrupt, you can keep playing. And the further you progress in the competition mode, the more patients appear, and the more treatments you can find, right?"

Zhang Yi smiled with relief: "You're so smart. I knew that college students aren't a different species. We can still communicate."

Resisting the urge to hurl insults at the other party, Li Cheng asked with a puzzled look, "If your view is correct, then why would the author choose to remain anonymous?"

"I don't know, but if my guess is true, then the other person is definitely a righteous and upright gentleman, a person of high moral character, who is constantly striving to ensure that everyone can see a doctor. This dream is his way of secretly promoting what he has learned. If such a person really exists, then I must follow him to the death!"

Li Cheng looked at Zhang Yi, who had become frenzied, with bewilderment, feeling that the other party had gone mad.

But since we're already here, it wouldn't be good to quit now, so she could only say, "In that case, let's choose the simplest competition mode, set all funds to the highest level, and then we can start researching all the diseases right away. This way, we can quickly move into the later stages, and you can see more of the diseases you want to see."

"Thank you."

Li Cheng thought this would allow Zhang Yi to smoothly enter the later stages of the game, but after switching to watch a short video for a while, she came back to find that Zhang Yi was already dead.

In the other hospital, vomit was everywhere and corpses were piled up like mountains, making even the cute style seem gruesome.

She even saw a mound of corpses erected in the other party's yard, where doctors and nurses who should have been working at the hospital were frantically working, treating the corpses like madmen; the scene looked extremely horrific.

After staring at it for a while, Li Cheng closed his eyes, feeling that Zhang Yi had to pay for the images he had seen.

After opening her eyes again, she asked in confusion, "Give me ten dollars, and tell me how you did it?"

"Why should I give you money?" "Because this scene has caused me emotional distress."

"I don't know either, it just inexplicably turned out like this," Zhang Yi said, puzzled. "I simply set the rest time for medical staff to zero, and if they were tired and wanted to rest, they could eat some ice-crystal gum to relieve the discomfort. All patients who needed to be admitted were admitted, and even if the hospital couldn't accommodate them all, they were placed in the hospital yard. That's how it was done in reality, so why doesn't it work in the dream? Do you think there's a loophole in this dream?"

"The flaw is in your brain! Sooner or later I'll crack it open and see how much water is inside! Don't try to fit reality into your dreams; the little people in dreams are much more delicate than those in reality."

Seeing Zhang Yi's still blank expression, Li Cheng said seriously, "Since you want to learn their medical skills, then you should first try to understand their thinking. The anonymous author believes that doctors and nurses need to rest well in order to work, so you should pay attention to arranging appropriate rest times for them, otherwise doctors will easily go crazy if they are exhausted."

"Can't I eat some ice-crystal gum? I know it's harmful, but isn't this a crucial moment?"

Li Cheng couldn't help but tap the other person on the head, then continued, "Learn from this! Look at how they set up hospitals! I know you think patients' lives are important, but what about the lives of doctors and nurses?"

"But we need something to squeeze out, right?"

"What's the point of building you a research institute? To spend money on research! In 'The Haunted Hospital,' many devices can be upgraded, otherwise why would I max out the budget at the start! And remember to train your staff too, otherwise why would I allow all buildings to be constructed at the beginning? Always remember to develop productivity and technology!"

"Oh. This dream is really difficult."

"Are you out of your mind? If I see you making your employees on call 24/7 again, turn off your phone and get out! You're so happy to berate your boss every day, but when you're a boss, you're ruthless than anyone else."

Under Li Cheng's supervision, Zhang Yi finally put aside his previous elite ideas and began to seriously study the various gameplay elements in "The Haunted Hospital".

After finally getting Zhang Yi back on the right track, Li Cheng could finally breathe a sigh of relief and continue watching short videos to recoup her losses.

She didn't really believe Zhang Yi's claim of "learning medicine through dreams."

Dreams that teach you something do exist, but that thing shouldn't cost 24 yuan, nor is it likely to be placed on a dream platform for people to learn from at will.

Surely no one would actually put something so important in a dream for people to learn?

No way?
After watching short videos for three hours straight, Li Cheng felt like he had barely recovered, but playing "Ghost Hospital" was still more enjoyable.

This dream is truly endlessly fascinating and incredibly addictive. Before you know it, you've spent a wonderful time in it, and your emotions are instantly restored.

Although it gets more difficult later on, that's part of the fun of dreams.

Just as she was about to call Zhang Yi to go out with her, she noticed that he was staring at her right hand and muttering something.

What are you saying to your girlfriend?

Zhang Yi didn't reply, but just frowned, stared at his right hand, and kept muttering something.

A few minutes later, he finally seemed to wake up from his daze, nodded and said, "I understand."

　We'll continue in the afternoon, starting at midnight.
