"Actually, besides healing, there’s another way to solve the tallized... patients here, isn’t there?"
Veronia saw that Feng Yuan and the others began trying to find a way to reverse the tallization and smiled slightly. Feng Yuan glanced at Veronia and shook his head, saying,
"Perhaps eliminating them all is an option, but... I always feel it’s not that simple. Maybe the only solution in this place is to cure the disease."
"But if there really is such a thod, then there’s a question, why did the Mad Doctor abandon such a laboratory in the first place?"
Although convinced by Feng Yuan, Veronia still raised this biggest doubt. Of course, maybe it’s just needed for the script, but she always felt things seemingly weren’t that simple. After all, without a reasonable explanation, it would always leave doubts in one’s mind.
"I don’t know, there are too many possibilities. Whether it was an accident midway or other reasons, current circumstances might have arisen. Of course, if healing the tallization disease is the solution, then there should definitely be corresponding potion products or semi-finished products with information."
Feng Yuan spread his hands and said, although he didn’t find anything similar in the previous corridor, this didn’t an it didn’t exist. Unless the solution here involves forcefully eliminating those tallized monsters, there must be potions to use at any ti.
Otherwise, they couldn’t just research on the spot, could they? That’s unreliable too. After all, in such a chaotic world, concocting an effective potion is not easy, let alone researching to solve sothing fictitious like tallization disease with their knowledge.
"If not, it ans we guessed wrong then～"
"There’s no other way, better than clearing all the patients and finding out we’re wrong in the end, right?"
Speaking helplessly, Feng Yuan and Yang Hongzhi began searching for potentially useful clues.
Unfortunately, the corridor holding the tallized patients didn’t have valuable clues. After a lap, they still didn’t find a treatnt plan. If that’s the case, could all they do be to clear out all those patients?
"The room at the end is empty, aning we only have one choice now."
Veronia looked at Feng Yuan with a smile, pinching her chin. Feng Yuan felt like he was overlooking sothing. After so thought, he walked back to the lobby to flip through the service desk, rembering they collected the radio transceiver there.
Wait, if we temporarily disregard the radio transceiver’s use as a pass item, what’s the special aning of it being placed here?
Although generally used for patrols, Feng Yuan didn’t find other patrol-related items here. If not that, could the radio transceiver have so unique use?
Looking at the initial corridor they entered, Feng Yuan frowned and said,
"Maybe, the answer still needs to be found here."
Opening the previously entered room’s door, Feng Yuan found that the narrow path was now directly leading into a warehouse. That familiar feeling of being watched made Xiao Ji lean closer to Feng Yuan.
Casually picking up Xiao Ji, Feng Yuan’s gaze swept over the rows of bottles and cans on the shelf. These items...
"Didn’t expect it to be so easy this ti, no need to walk that long corridor～"
Following Feng Yuan inside, Veronia spoke, looking at the entrance to the room with part of the Prison City data. Feng Yuan touched his chin and said,
"This place, sothing feels wrong..."
"Are you talking about the Faceless tal Man?"
Yang Hongzhi asked casually. The problematic feature of this area was probably the Faceless tal Man that appeared when they turned around.
With Yang Hongzhi’s ntion, Feng Yuan imdiately thought of sothing and said,
"Exactly! If the Mad Doctor’s goal was healing, then what was the situation with the Faceless tal Man we encountered?"
He didn’t think it was part of the institute’s security asures, and since the right corridor was the cage for patients, how did the Faceless tal Man appear here? He didn’t believe it escaped from the jail.
This implies the Faceless tal Man’s presence might have a special aning. However, now that the passages in all four rooms have disappeared, finding that thing might not be easy.
Thinking about this, Feng Yuan suddenly rembered this corridor had more rooms than just the few they entered. Strictly speaking, there were many doors in this corridor. They entered marked rooms at first, t the tal Rhinoceros, and ended up in another corridor, aning there were many areas they hadn’t explored thoroughly on this side.
"You guys check here; I’ll look for other rooms to see if there are any other clues."
With this in mind, Feng Yuan turned around holding Xiao Ji. At this mont, Veronia’s face in a dress showed a cold smile.
Veronia: "Earlier, I thought the hint was telling us the unlock sequence of rooms, but it turned out to be about which rooms were safe."
Yang Hongzhi: "What do you an? Huh? Veronia, why did you purposely use the radio transceiver for this?"
Najia: "Veronia, you’re not with us now?"
Veronia: "What? Didn’t you even realize I wasn’t following? That’s really hurtful～"
Yang Hongzhi: "Then... who’s the Veronia following us now?"
Feng Yuan: "An impostor, because there’s a Veronia with too."
Veronia: "Oh～ that’s interesting, soone daring to impersonate ?"
Without hanging up the radio transceiver, Feng Yuan turned around and faced the gradually tallized Veronia. He didn’t expect such a twist, and the tal Veronia behind him no longer hid its true form. Unfortunately, it didn’t know who it was facing.
Easily dealing with the impostor, Feng Yuan watched as it turned into liquid and rged back into the ground. He frowned and picked up the radio.
Feng Yuan: "Hongzhi, are you alright?"
Yang Hongzhi: "We’re okay, Najia acted in ti, so there were no mishaps. But... the way the impostor vanished was like the tal man."
Veronia: "How annoying, using my guise to act. Strange, why wasn’t there this facade on my side?"
Feng Yuan: "Maybe it’s related to your actions? Hongzhi, did you not enter other rooms?"
Najia: "We were checking the tal Rhinoceros’s remains, hoping to find missed clues, but ended up facing this situation."
Veronia: "So, aside from the four rooms related to chanisms, other rooms have issues?"
Feng Yuan: "Maybe not limited to that. Let’s gather later, then I’ll enter a room to see. By the way, what did you an earlier about a dangerous chanism in other rooms?"
Veronia: "Not really, but the room I entered earlier had unstable internal space. Unsure if it’s by design or an Abnormal Space issue."
Yang Hongzhi: "Could it be... the source of the tallization disease is from a Different Space?"
Feng Yuan: "Quite possible, but does that an a direct boss fight?"
Veronia: "Do you think we can force a breakthrough to find the enemy’s location?"
Feng Yuan: "Perhaps there are clues about the disease’s source in those rooms?"
Putting away the radio transceiver, Feng Yuan returned to the corridor. By now, Veronia and Yang Hongzhi were already waiting, with a mirror, imbued with the Divine Beasts’ aura, floating beside Veronia to prove her identity, and a constellation floating beside Yang Hongzhi, created by Najia.
Behind Feng Yuan, the black robe phantom also served as proof of his identity. Just like Najia’s ultimate move, the black robe phantom behind Feng Yuan wasn’t sothing Abnormal Space could imitate.
Once everyone gathered, Feng Yuan opened a door and said,
"Should we move together, or... leave a few people to deal with those impostors?"
"Are you planning to fish them out?"
Veronia looked at Feng Yuan in surprise and asked, wondering if he intended to repeatedly lure those strange tal creatures out to eliminate them all.
"Not really, it’s hard to say if that thing can infinitely regenerate or not."
Shaking his head, Feng Yuan said, considering for Abnormal Space, creatures it creates could disassemble and reassemble anyti, truly eliminating them might be impossible.
