Chapter 20 New Monster

Translator: Doggotranslation

Chu Yunsheng sat on the floor while staring at the pig's brain and thinking about whether he should go to the nearby zoo to get some more animals' brains. Although he stored quite a lot of pork, he only had three pigs' brains. After all, he didn't expect that animals' brains could be this useful before.

Chu Yunsheng then checked his injuries. His right arm would still hurt greatly if he tried to move. His abdomen had been pinched tightly by the insect, so the injury in his abdomen was the most severe; he felt pain even when he was just breathing. Fortunately, he did not lose any body parts. He would be able to recover from the current injuries once Yuan Qi circulated inside his body for a complete cycle.

The remaining two units of Yuan Qi were more than enough to deal with the two dying red-shelled insects.

After Chu Yunsheng collected the three insects' bodies, he did not rush into the hospital. He held his right hand and found a quiet corner.

So far he had saved up two absorption Talismans, they were all filled up with flame patterns. Before he left the restaurant, he had used one of them to restore his Yuan Qi. Now he only had one and a half, a total of nine flame patterns left. It meant that he could still restore eighteen units of Yuan Qi.

So he decided to use the remaining half talisman to restore his Yuan Qi.

Looking at the used talisman making a sibilant sound and slowly burning out in the mid-air, Chu Yunsheng took out a cigarette and thought. In this battle, he killed three red-shelled insects, it cost him six units of Yuan Qi, which equaled the amount that he gathered from the three dead insects. But he collected more materials in the end. In short, the result was not too bad.

Chu Yunsheng didn't dare to take a break. Once he finished the cigarette, he started to move again!

This community hospital had two buildings, one big and one small, and both buildings were built using red bricks. There were bodies lying around on the ground next to the wall, some looked like doctors and others looked like patients, but they all had something similar, which were the empty skulls. It was definitely done by red-shelled insects.

The main building's glass door at the entrance was broken. The shattered glass pieces were scattered all around the floor, making cracking sounds when Chu Yunsheng walked on it.

There was a huge pool of blood in the reception area. Medical reports and newspapers with footprints on them were everywhere in the reception. But the headlines like The Sun Disappeared! in the newspapers were still clearly visible.

There was half an intestine hanging on the new patient registration window. The blood that had dripped from it was already frozen. There were a few banknotes whirling in the eddies of wind. The computers and furniture had all been knocked over. It seemed that a serious riot had happened here before.

There was a cabinet tightly blocking the security door. However, the security door had a big hole in it. In addition, there was an eyeball hanging on the rusty metal of the door, looking ferociously at the dark corridor behind the hall.

The notice board for introducing traditional Chinese medicine was broken into half. There were hairs that stained blood all over the broken glass.

Chu Yunsheng turned to the right and saw a counter. On the top of the counter, there was a sign that was about to fall down. It read "Drug collection". In front of the counter, the fallen chairs were all over the place, some of them were even broken into pieces.

Chu Yunsheng did not know what happened here, but it was so quiet that he could even hear his own footsteps!

Every step he made would echo back from deep inside the corridor as if he was stepping into hell. The heavy smell of blood was constantly blown to his face through the corridor.

Chu Yunsheng always felt something was amiss about this hospital. This place was very creepy and hair-raising, but he could not tell what exactly made him feel that way!

However, he had already gotten to this point. There was no way he would give up halfway. He just needed to hurry up and find the drugs so he could leave this place as soon as possible.

The counter window for drug collection was broken. As long as he carefully removed the debris, he would be able to climb over it. Behind the counter, the cabinet for the drugs had fallen onto each other one by one just like dominos. All the drugs had fallen on the ground and scattered everywhere in the room.

As Chu Yunsheng controlled the beam of the storage and scanned the whole room, all the drugs were sucked into the talisman. He didn't have time to differentiate which drug was useful, and which was not. Once he got to a safer place, he could take his time and check them one by one.

The drug collection counter did not have many drugs. The majority of the drugs were stored in the drug storage facility. According to the map drawn by that female teacher, if he wanted to go to the drug storage room, he had to go through that deep dark corridor!

Should I go or not?

Chu Yunsheng did not know why he would have a strange palpitation of fear when looking at the deep and dark corridor. The dark hospital was already creepy enough, but now there were also sounds of insects that came and went like ghosts, it made him even more afraid of this hospital.

Grabbing a counterfeit detector from the counter, he threw it down the corridor and immediately aimed the crossbow at the corridor.

"Clang... Clang ..." The counterfeit detector rolled very far.

But nothing happened. There were no insects jumping out, nor no ghosts appearing.

Chu Yunsheng was slightly relieved, Maybe I am too paranoid. If there are any insects, they should have come out already.

Turning on the infrared radiation device, the dark corridor instantly appeared in an eerier green color in the night vision goggles.

Chu Yunsheng tightly clenched the crossbow and slowly moved into the corridors along the wall.

Even though he was extremely careful, he could still clearly hear his footsteps echoing inside the corridor.

He was so nervous that his palms were sweating. But for the drugs, he had to take the risk. Even if the drugs were not for those kids, in the future, he would certainly need those life-saving drugs as well.

He did not even dare look at the doors on both sides of the corridor. He just kept telling himself that he just needed to go through the corridor as quickly as possible.

However, when passing another door, he suddenly noticed a white shadow flashing past by the window on the top of the door on his left!

Chu Yunsheng instantly leaned against the wall while holding his breath. His heart was jumping rapidly and his palms were sweating even harder. When he was hesitant about whether he should check it one more time, a crooning song came from the room he had just walked past. It was soft, cold, and intermittent.

"Who is it!" Chu Yunsheng hissed. This cold song was so eerie that it made his hair rise. But no one answered him. Instead, the song could still be heard clearly from the outside.

Gritting his teeth, Chu Yunsheng made up his mind, Fuck it, I do not believe that there are ghosts! I have already killed more than a dozen red-shelled insects. Why am I still scared of these things?

When he was about to kick open the door, the door unexpectedly "creaked" open by itself.

Chu Yunsheng immediately aimed the crossbow at the door. What he saw next was a woman slowing coming out of the door. The woman was naked, and her hair was messy, but it could not hide her pretty face. Her delicate curvy body was even emitting dim light.

The woman was looking at him, but her eyes appeared to be unfocused. Her small and delicate mouth opened and closed, humming a song emotionlessly.

"Who are you?" Chu Yunsheng was not intimidated. He had seen worse.

This woman was very strange. Everything about her was unusual. The temperature was freezing cold, but she didn't wear anything, and her skin was as pale as a ghost!

The woman did not answer but smiled at him strangely. She began to walk towards him slowly a step by step.

All of sudden, Chu Yunsheng felt that his energy shield was activated. He did not know what happened, but it seemed like the shield was trying to defend against something.

"Stop! Or I will shoot you!" He warned the woman.

However, the woman continued walking towards him and didn't respond to him, as if she didn't hear him. Her steps were so light as if she was a puppet that was being controlled by something.

Chu Yunsheng would not allow anyone to threaten his life, and he would not be deceived by a woman's appearance. He immediately pulled the trigger without any hesitation!

In such a close distance, the powerful frost arrow pierced through the woman's chest instantly, dragging her back and sticking her onto the wall!

"Ah!" The naked woman only had time to make a shrill scream.

But at the moment when she was about to be frozen, the woman seemed to smile at him again, but this time, her empty eyes flashed a glimmer of color. It seemed like she was finally relieved.

"...Coo... Coo..." A series of strange low grunting sounds suddenly came from the back of the hospital. The sounds seemed to contain a trace of anger.

What the hell?!

Chu Yunsheng was startled, but there was no time for him to think too much. He came all the way here to get drugs, he should quickly get the medicine and leave this place as soon as possible! He absolutely should not get close to the back of the hospital!

Not daring to stay any longer, he started to run fast. Following the map, he soon found the drug storage room. The door was locked, but it was not a problem for Chu Yunsheng.

The medicine storage room was very clean, there was no sign of someone breaking in before. Chu Yunsheng quickly collected everything he could, he even stored the entire refrigeration equipment as well.

Once he got everything, he immediately ran down the stairs. However, when he just came back to the corridor, he instinctively felt that something was staring at him.

This feeling of something watching him came directly from the corridor on the left, which was leading to the back of the hospital. Taking out the crossbow immediately, he clenched it tightly. To him, the scariest thing in this world was nothing but the insects.

But when he saw a slender pipe-shaped tentacle, it suddenly struck him that there was more than just one kind of monster out there in this world!

The tentacle appeared to have a giant eye at its tip, and it was heading toward him fast!
