From the remaining ashes, what Lin Yu found was certainly not relics.
What those two doctors burned into were two shiny tal keys.
Lin Yu brushed aside the debris and picked them up, discovering their texture was probably so kind of extrely smooth tal with a special material—which was why these two small keys sparkled so brightly in the ashes and firelight, imdiately catching Lin Yu's attention.
The style was quite plain, being ordinary single-groove double-row keys, and the two keys looked extrely similar, probably for opening the sa type of lock.
Lin Yu picked them up, triggering the item prompt.
【Key A: An ordinary key used to open so kind of lock.】
【Key B: An ordinary key used to open so kind of lock.】
Very simplistic item descriptions and naming conventions.
Like sothing you'd see in so old-school pixel puzzle gas—of course keys are ant to open locks.
However...
Having the blood-text 【Item】 prompt at least ant the ga officially certified these two things were actually useful, which wasn't completely useless for Lin Yu.
He stored these two keys properly, then stepped forward into the interior of this floor.
Having been intercepted by two doctors imdiately upon entering the fifth floor and getting into an encounter battle, Lin Yu hadn't had ti to thoroughly investigate yet!
Upon closer observation, just the corridor decoration of this fifth floor was different from the previous floors.
While not inconsistent in style, you could still see the corridor was quite impressive.
It maintained that sowhat dated style from the previous century, but compared to the minimalist style of cent floors and white plaster walls on the earlier floors, this level at least had tiles installed.
The overhead lighting also used soft light strips, without any flickering or power outage issues.
And the doors embedded one after another in the corridor walls also had relative craftsmanship—not only were simple grooves carved, but the door fras also had edge treatnts.
Lin Yu could even see directional signs posted on the walls!
"Your current location, leading to XXX"
But these signs, due to long-term neglect, had most of their text faded beyond recognition.
Lin Yu could only discern from the remaining text that although the entire fifth floor had seven corridors like other floors, it was divided into three areas.
"Special Examination Zone," "Senior Physicians On-Duty Zone," and "Intensive Care Zone."
His current location was naturally the "Senior Physicians On-Duty Zone."
Turning left down one corridor would lead into the "Special Examination Zone."
Since the 【Ancient Notebook】 contained no further records, Lin Yu reasonably speculated.
His previous exploration of the fifth floor might have been sowhat rushed and incomplete.
He might have even just cracked the entrance password...
But despite this, Lin Yu didn't think he should proceed cautiously or even stop moving forward.
The doors in this section of the corridor were all made of transparent glass sliding door material, with so walls even having glass windows.
Through these glasses, Lin Yu looked inside—and surprisingly, it was remarkably consistent with ordinary hospitals.
Various bulky, high-end, and precise instrunts were displayed under cool white lighting, with the entire room maintaining that plain white clean tone, giving off a reliable yet icy feeling, as if you could sll the disinfectant slowly evaporating from plastic surfaces.
Moreover, this examination zone seed to have no one on duty, at least Lin Yu didn't see any traces of living creatures.
As he strolled through this corridor, Lin Yu didn't deliberately conceal his presence either, just walking normally, yet still didn't trigger any unusual movents.
In this 【Escape from the Madhouse】 dungeon, the dical staff NPCs all held so aggressiveness toward players.
No NPCs attacking ant at least there were none of that type hiding in the shadows...
If there were patient NPCs hiding or similar.
Lin Yu would temporarily ignore them.
After all, he had no good thod to quickly find these strange, relatively withdrawn NPCs who chose to hide.
Moreover, just from common sense consideration, how could a hospital's "examination room" possibly have no doctors on duty but patients staying inside?
This was indeed a 『Death Ga』 dungeon, but as a 【dungeon】 built on a worldview foundation where facts and the world could reasonably exist, most things themselves needed to conform to "common sense."
Of course, a completely peaceful corridor was also good news, at least indicating nothing bad would happen in this corridor for a while.
Unless monster NPCs suddenly transferred here or simply creations without their own intelligence.
Lin Yu slowly observed the silent scenes on both sides of these corridors.
In this unmanned area, the only thing that could be considered sowhat changing was probably so instrunts automatically debugging and self-checking.
Indicator lights flickered on and off, chanical components operated then stopped.
But they weren't truly running or causing any consequences.
Although there was so activity, these movents weren't enough to attract Lin Yu's serious attention.
Machine self-tests were far too common, and these machines didn't show any style-inappropriate deviations.
After brief observation, Lin Yu decided to temporarily postpone detailed investigation of this area, lowering its priority—completely abandoning it was naturally impossible, since the fifth floor was so special with only three areas, and if this area as one of them contained absolutely nothing hidden, that would be impossible too.
There should at least be so extra rewards.
Of course...
The prerequisite was that Lin Yu would actually still have ti later.
After all, Lin Yu currently wasn't in a leisurely single-player exploration dungeon.
Robin and Max had already gone to the first floor to "find clues," and although Lin Yu couldn't completely trust these two, he also didn't think they were in a completely opposing state.
Before direct evidence showed they were in a zero-sum ga within this dungeon, Lin Yu would maintain friendly relations with them.
The main reason was because Robin was truly difficult to deal with.
So...
If Max and Robin really found so more crucial clues and actively invited Lin Yu, then Lin Yu might even choose to put aside his exploration of the fifth floor and act together with them!
Moreover, Lin Yu developed so speculations...
His previous exploration of the fifth floor not being too thorough might also have reasons related to those two mbers from the 『Night Watchn』.
As for the option of inviting them to explore the fifth floor together...
Lin Yu had an intuition telling him it was better not to do this.
And now Lin Yu clearly understood that so-called "intuition" in this dungeon was actually likely residual mories from before that had been erased but still existed, hinting to himself.
Therefore, Lin Yu decided to follow his intuition.
"Before they find , I'd better quickly investigate the fifth floor's 'Intensive Care Zone' first."
