Strange things happen, and I drive the evil god mad by chasing debts.

Fang Yue's palms were sweating nervously as he watched other strange creatures that might emerge from the shadows.

Shen Qingchan did not stop. The unhealed wound on her waist throbbed with each movement. A cold glint flashed in her eyes, and she had no intention of negotiating at all.

"Hospital rules?" She chuckled lightly, her tone icy. "Forcibly binding living people to harvest organs, does that deserve to be called rules?"

Before she could finish speaking, the nurse, with her head tilted to the side, pounced on Shen Qingchan, her long hair stretching wildly as if it were alive, wrapping around her neck.

Shen Qingchan dodged to the side, her elbow slamming into the nurse's crooked jaw. A dull cracking sound was heard, and the nurse staggered backward uncontrollably, her head leaving a dark mark on the wall.

Seeing this, the remaining strange medical staff gathered around and stepped forward.

Just then, a clear male voice suddenly rang out.

"etc."

Bai Ke walked slowly to Shen Qingchan's side, the hem of her pure white coat swaying slightly with her movements.

With just two words, all the strange occurrences that rushed towards them seemed to have hit an invisible barrier, their movements freezing in mid-air, their limbs trembling uncontrollably, and a deep fear welling up in their eyes.

The doctor with the festering face, who had been so arrogant just moments before, made a strange hoarse sound in his throat and dared not take another step forward.

The rules of the instance instinctively warned it not to disobey the person before it.

Seizing the fleeting moment, Shen Qingchan rushed to the bedside, her fingertips finding the belt buckle. With a forceful tug, the straps binding Pei Wuwang's limbs snapped open.

Pei Wuwang's arm was suddenly freed. He weakly supported himself on the edge of the bed and struggled to sit up. His face was ashen, and his eyes were unfocused. When he saw Shen Qingchan, he managed a bitter smile: "I wasn't ready to go into surgery... I didn't expect to run into you here."

"Let's get out of here first." Shen Qingchan reached out to support the swaying Pei Wuwang.

The doctor with the festering sores finally broke through the oppressive atmosphere, roaring in exasperation, "You can't take the patient away! The surgery must go ahead! Wall Hospital won't tolerate anyone disrupting procedures!"

It tried to stop it again, but Bai Ke glanced at it indifferently.

There was no outward leakage of violent power, but the skin of those strange medical staff began to peel uncontrollably. The pain forced them to curl up on the ground, and they could no longer stop it.

Fang Yue rushed over and helped Pei Wuwang up, supporting his other arm: "Hurry, hurry! Once you go into the operating room, you might never come out again!"

The four retreated, moving away from the direction of the operating room.

[System notification: Successfully prevented Pei Wuwang's organ removal surgery!]

[Story unlock progress: 100%!]

A clear system notification simultaneously rang in Shen Qingchan's mind.

The last piece of the progress bar that had been hanging in the air was finally filled, and she felt a slight sense of relief. All that was left was to find the exit of the dungeon so that she could successfully complete the Vole Hospital dungeon.

Pei Wuwang gasped for breath, having regained some of his strength.

Shen Qingchan's gaze darkened as she looked at Bai Ke, who had been standing quietly to her side.

Thanks to his intervention that deterred the strange entity, the rescue was able to proceed so smoothly.

The fluorescent lights in the corridor flickered more and more intensely, and in the distance, the operating room doors slowly opened inward, with thick black mist overflowing from inside. The faint clanging of knives could be heard, as if the being inside had sensed its prey's escape and was becoming restless.

"We can't stay here any longer," Shen Qingchan said in a deep voice. "The progress has been fully unlocked. We need to find an exit from the hospital immediately."

Fang Yue immediately recalled the clues he had received earlier and hurriedly said, "The system told me that someone would take me out of the instance today! The progress bar is full now, and the exit should appear soon!"

Just as everyone was preparing to find a way out, heavy footsteps came from the end of the corridor.

The dean's distinctive, hoarse voice drifted over: "Breaking into offices, abducting patients awaiting surgery... It seems you all intend to stay at Wall Hospital forever."

The dean's furious voice, like a dull knife dipped in ice water, slammed into the deathly silent corridor.

Behind them, the dark operating room doorway was filled with billowing black mist, and faint, eerie roars echoed from within the mist, sending chills down one's spine.

Without daring to linger for even a moment, Shen Qingchan supported the weak Pei Wuwang and shouted, "Go! Find the exit!"

Fang Yue was so frightened that his heart stopped. He quickly followed, and the four of them turned and ran wildly into the depths of the corridor.

But after running only a few steps, everyone's hearts sank instantly.

The hospital corridor, which was once fairly tidy, has been completely transformed.

The familiar department signs were all upside down and misplaced, and the passageways on both sides stretched endlessly.

The stark white walls, the flickering fluorescent lights, the mottled brown stains on the ground, and even the stench of disinfectant in the air were exactly the same.

It's impossible to tell which way is the way we came from and which way is the way we're going.

The corridors are nested in layers and connected end to end.

"What happened?! Where's the stairwell?!" Fang Yue stared at the identical scene, completely panicked, and scratched his head. "I remember it being right here, how did it suddenly disappear? Something's wrong with this hospital!"

Pei Wuwang leaned against the wall, his face still pale. He was severely exhausted after being rescued from the operating table, and his breathing was unsteady: "When I was escorted here, the passage I passed through was not like this... The dungeon is altering the terrain."

Behind them, the dean's heavy footsteps grew closer and closer, each step crushing and pounding like a blow to the heart.

As he approached, the corridor lights went out one by one, and darkness spread rapidly like a tide, relentlessly pursuing the four's escape route.

"Escape? No one can escape on my turf."

A chilling laugh pierced the darkness, accompanied by the chirping of countless tiny insects, both jarring and eerie.

Fang Yue paced frantically, looking back and forth at the several identical passages, completely losing his composure: "We're doomed! They're all dead ends! This maze is completely confusing; running around blindly will only kill us! My progress bar is maxed out; I don't want to get stuck on the escape route!"

Bai Ke stood silently to the side, her gaze sweeping over the chaotic corridor around her, but she did not intervene. She simply stood quietly by, as if observing from the sidelines, or as if tacitly allowing everything to happen.

In the critical moment, Shen Qingchan suddenly raised her hand, stopping the panicked crowd.

"Don't panic, there are still clues."

Her voice was calm and steady, instantly quelling everyone's panic.

As early as when she was going through the files in the dean's office, she subconsciously memorized the core rules and architectural characteristics of the Wall Hospital—the hospital's labyrinthine illusion could only alter the visual appearance, but could not change the subtle traces left when the copy was first created.

Shen Qingchan raised her eyes and quickly scanned the entire maze passage, her gaze sharp as a knife.

"Look at the light tubes," she quickly instructed. "All the fake passages created by illusion have light tubes that flash at a uniform frequency. Only the real passages have unstable current and flicker erratically, consistent with the original building's traces."
