Rules of the Strange: Starting with the Weird Peppa Pig

Lucas pressed on with his questions.

"Is there any way we can help Parry regain control?"

Wuyin: "We have already injected 'blood and sweat money' into her body, which will help Palli enhance her soul power considerably."

However, the power of the strange core was indeed not to be underestimated. Even so, with the two forces locked in a stalemate, the body couldn't withstand it, and so the person fainted.

Lucas was somewhat puzzled.

"The bizarre core?"

Li Fan then walked over and briefly explained to Lucas what had happened after he fainted, before turning to look at Wuyin.

"How can we clear the 18th floor?"

Wuyin walked to the window and looked out. Li Fan followed her.

It was almost dawn.

His voice was flat, as if he were talking about something trivial.

"It all depends on whether Pali can wake up, but we don't have the chance to gamble."

If 001 were to wake up, we might be trapped in this hospital forever. We can't always pin our hopes on the other person inside you; after all, he was one of those who tried to kill us.

As Wuyin finished speaking, she conjured the scalpel that had fallen to the ground into her hand, gripped the handle tightly, and muttered to herself.

"Perhaps our only way to pass this level is to kill all the monsters on this floor."

The last four words were spoken so softly, as if they were blown away by the wind as soon as they were uttered.

Upon hearing these four words, Li Fan lowered his eyes and remained silent, his thoughts unknown.

Lucas, standing to the side, pursed his lips. He had heard Wuyin's words, but he pretended not to hear anything.

Chapter 200 Jack's Fatherly Love

He did agree with Wuyin's words, but seemingly influenced by Li Fan, a sense of sadness welled up in his heart for no apparent reason.

Li Fan suddenly spoke.

“I remember we got five IV bottles on the first floor. Lucas used one, you just used three, and there’s one left. Why don’t we give it to the little girl too?”

Wuyin glanced at the robot not far away and shook her head.

"Before saving others, you must ensure your own safety. I will keep this IV bottle in case of emergencies."

If that robot suddenly starts attacking us, it will be very difficult to deal with without the IV drip to fight back. Its strength is even more terrifying than that little girl.

The little girl's attack power would be diverted by external interference, but once the robot grabs someone, it will kill without hesitation.

Just then, a loud commotion came from behind.

Li Fan and Wu Yin turned their heads and saw that the little girl who had fainted on the ground was now being emanated from a violent black mist. The mist kept gushing out of her body and gathering towards her head.

The three IV bottles inserted into his body were completely empty, and his head and body began to show signs of mutation.

He was silent, expressionless, and spoke in a flat tone.

"It seems this bizarre core truly lives up to its name, it's incredibly resilient."

His face remained expressionless as he gripped the scalpel tightly and walked step by step toward the little girl, like the Grim Reaper.

A dark shadow suddenly lunged at his thigh. Wuyin frowned, about to raise his scalpel to slash the monster in front of him, when he realized it was Jack, who was next to the little girl.

Jack clung tightly to Wuyin's legs, kneeling on the ground and pleading desperately.

"I beg you, Pari is still inside her body, please don't hurt her."

Wuyin looked down at Jack's ugly face and sighed softly.

"You should know that your daughter's soul is no match for the strange core, so she will be trapped in this body forever. Killing her might be another form of salvation for your daughter."

Moreover, if she is not killed, this hospital will be forever shrouded in eeriness, and all the other patients in the hospital will be trapped here forever.

This hospital houses not only your daughter, but also other people's family and friends.

He knew that the father in front of him was in great pain, so he made an exception and said a lot of nonsense.

Jack's voice was choked with emotion, but he persisted.

“I know, so please give me a little more time. I will find a way to help my daughter’s soul recover.”

Wuyin looked up at 001, who had become slightly eerie, and was about to say something when Jack interrupted her.

"Please give me three minutes. If I cannot awaken my daughter's soul within three minutes, I will no longer stop you, and you may dispose of her as you see fit."

Jack's tone was almost humble to the point of being utterly humble.

Reason told Wuyin that he could not grant Jack's request.

Three IV drips have already been used to strengthen Pali's soul, but Pali is still suppressed by the strange core, and there is almost no possibility of waking her up.

Moreover, the longer they delay, the more dangerous their situation becomes. If the strange core fully awakens after three minutes, it will be difficult for them to defeat her.

But now, looking at his father's humble pleading, he felt a pang of inner conflict.

A father, desperate for his daughter's life, knelt humbly before a man much younger than himself, begging for just three more minutes.

Li Fan walked over to Wu Yin and glanced at him.

Wuyin also glanced at Li Fan. The two stared at each other for a moment, and Wuyin finally sighed, sheathed the tip of her knife, and compromised.

“If your daughter doesn’t return to normal in three minutes, I will take immediate action.”

Anyway, agonizing over it is a waste of time, so let's give the father and daughter three minutes to say goodbye.

Jack lay on the ground, his body trembling. Upon hearing this, he excitedly kowtowed three times to the ground, choking back tears as he spoke.

"Thank you, thank you so much."

He knew in his heart that every minute and every second was crucial, so he didn't say much and practically crawled to his daughter's side.

Jack gently picked up the little girl who was becoming increasingly bizarre. He reached out and carefully smoothed her messy hair, speaking softly.

“Pali, don’t be afraid, Daddy will always be here, Daddy will never leave.”

Strangely, when Jack said those words, the little girl's bizarre physical transformation seemed to regress slightly.

But this was just a drop in the ocean; the black mist continued to surge, eroding her body and accelerating the process of becoming increasingly bizarre.

Jack's eyes scanned his surroundings, and he saw three empty IV bottles on the ground next to him. He reached out with trembling hands and tightly gripped the three empty IV sets in his hand.

The next second, the IV set in his hand suddenly changed its appearance, becoming a special IV set with needles at both ends, connected to each other, which no one had ever seen before.

Wuyin raised an eyebrow slightly upon seeing this scene, somewhat surprised.

He did know that the hospital's rule regarding IV sets and fees was specifically set up because of Jack's case.

But he never imagined that Jack could change the shape of the IV set.

But given the shape of this IV set, could it be that he wanted to...?

The moment the thought of silence arose, Jack, without any hesitation, plunged the needle into his heart. Instantly, bright red blood gushed from the needle tip.

The blood was a different color from the liquid in the IV bottle; the blood flowing from Jack's heart was thicker and more vibrant.

Jack then slowly aimed the other end of the needle at the little girl's heart. His hand trembled slightly before he finally plunged the needle into her heart.

Blood rushed from Jack's heart into the little girl's heart as if being pumped out.

A miracle happened.

The little girl's bizarre speed miraculously stopped, and she even showed signs of reversing.

As Lucas looked at the scene before him, a faint, subtle pain welled up in his heart.

Other people's fathers can give up their lives for their children, but his parents left him when he was just old enough to understand, just for a ridiculous round-the-world trip.

He didn't get married or have children at thirty, all because of his childhood experiences.

In his mind, family affection has always been a ridiculous joke, the cheapest emotion in the world.

But at this moment, he suddenly felt that his obsession over the years might have been wrong from the very beginning.

Family ties didn't seem as bad as he had imagined.

Li Fan lowered his eyes, unable to bear looking at the scene before him any longer. The softest part of his heart felt like it was being tightly gripped, filled with bitterness and unease.

Suddenly, the eerie mist surrounding the little girl intensified dramatically.

They were howling and raging, moving so fast they seemed to carry a whistling sound, relentlessly forcing their way into the little girl's head.

Chapter 201 Hospital Ghost Stories End

Upon seeing this scene, Wuyin's expression suddenly turned serious.

Just as he was about to grit his teeth and kill the girl in Jack's arms, he saw Jack quickly connect another blood tube, and a second connecting IV line linked their hearts together.

In an instant, the black mist was suppressed again.

Wuyin paused for a moment, and Jack dared not delay any longer, continuing to connect the third infusion set to the hearts of the two men.

The black mist was now completely filled with the thick, bright red blood, leaving only Jack's increasingly emaciated body and the gradually calming black mist around the little girl.

Jack's brow furrowed, and his body trembled slightly.

His body seemed to be enduring extreme pain, but he didn't utter a sound. He simply rested his head on the little girl's hair, looking reluctant to let her go.

He looked at Wuyin and the others, a slight smile appearing on his lips.

"Although I know this request is unreasonable, I still want to ask you: if my daughter survives but I die, could you adopt my daughter until she turns 18? She's a very well-behaved girl..."

Before Wuyin and Li Fan could speak, they heard Lucas quickly reply from the side.

"Okay, I promise you."

After Lucas finished speaking, he realized he had been a bit impulsive, but he didn't regret it.

Perhaps... it's time to break free from the shackles that have bound me for so many years.

"Thank you."

Gratitude was evident in Jack's eyes. He thanked her softly and then looked down at his daughter, who seemed to be fast asleep in his arms.
