Terror is resurging, but only I am.

Will they win in Chapter 27? Yes, they will.

"Quickly, move the collectibles first."

Yan Ming glanced at the collection that had already been mostly moved, and without the slightest hesitation, immediately issued the task.

The old woman glanced at the remaining containers, which were mostly small items, and didn't bother to check if there would be any problems if they were too close together. She simply picked up two in each hand and ran towards the evacuation point, returning empty-handed in just a few minutes.

"Let's go, get out of this lab, don't let Dr. Zhang block us in the lab."

Yan Ming glanced at Li Jiahao and said, "You can continue hiding here if you want."

Li Jiahao looked back at the ward of the critically ill patients, and could faintly hear strange noises coming from the ghosts inside.

"No need, I'll go with you."

In comparison, he still felt safer with Yan Ming and Grandma, since his teachers died because of a ghost breaking out of prison.

So Yan Ming and the others turned and left, with the Ghost Eye corpse at the very back. It dismantled the Huarong Road again, releasing the fork-road ghosts to block their way.

Their group was about to leave the underground experimental area, so releasing the sidewalk ghosts now was naturally not a problem.

"What a strong smell of blood."

As soon as she stepped out of the basement, the old woman twitched her nose twice and couldn't help but frown and make a sound.

The entire hospital is now permeated with a foul, bloody smell, as if it had just been pulled out of a sea of ​​blood.

Li Jiahao pushed open the iron gate of the emergency exit and felt something sticky on his hand. He hurriedly shook it off and found it was a pool of scarlet blood.

"Huh?" He subconsciously felt strange, because he clearly hadn't seen any blood on the iron gate just now.

what happened?

He wanted to ask, but looking at Yan Ming and the old woman in front of him, he couldn't bring himself to say it.

"It seems that Dr. Zhang has turned the entire hospital into his own domain." Yan Ming opened his Ghost Eyes, and when the visions of the two Ghost Eyes overlapped, the world he saw changed.

In a normal field of vision, the first floor appears completely normal, but in the world seen through the ghost's eyes, the entire first floor is covered with spiderweb-like blood vessels and thick blood plasma.

Yan Ming noticed that the tables, chairs, computers, and lamps covered in blood all showed faint signs of corrosion.

This is a hospital that is turning into a "blood nest".

Will the pool of ghostly blood that Dr. Zhang chose actually transform its environment and establish a home-field advantage?
This is basically the result of him using a "touch" marble once, right?
However, Ghost Blood Pool's appearance brought a home-field advantage, putting Yan Ming on the defensive.

Am I supposed to use a single marble to establish my home-field advantage through "bumping into" the opponent's territory?
Yan Ming mentally simulated the scenario where the Spying Ghost would use "Touch the Realm." The Doctor Ghost had given a "preview," and the most likely outcome would be that a large number of cracks would appear in the surrounding environment, through which the Ghost Eye could pass and spy on the enemy from different directions.

Previously, Dr. Zhang threw himself into a pool of blood, resetting the hatred from the Ghost Eye on his body. Therefore, he is not currently being targeted by the Spying Ghost, and Yan Ming cannot open the Ghost Eye next to him.

Should we use the "encounter" of the spy ghost to create an opportunity to lock onto Dr. Zhang?
I feel they can't play a key role.

Yan Ming silently shook his head. Using this method at most puts him on the same starting line as Dr. Zhang, and cannot be considered as gaining an advantage.

There will definitely be a better time to use it.

"What should we do now? Go see Dr. Zhang? Or leave the hospital first?" the old woman asked Yan Ming about his next steps.

She had just learned from Yan Ming what happened after her death. At least the Slender Man, the Fierce Ghost, and Dr. Zhang were still wandering around the hospital.

The evil spirit kills anyone it sees, but it follows Slender Man. Slender Man is only interested in killing everyone who knows he has contained the artifact, especially Dr. Zhang. Dr. Zhang is most likely targeting Yan Ming and her, so it's probably a fight to the death.

A very clear three-way battle.

"You're leaving the hospital? Isn't it more dangerous outside?" Li Jiahao trembled immediately upon hearing this choice.

For any resident of Wangcheng, being on the streets at night is an extremely terrifying thing.

Yan Ming glanced at the old woman, who nodded solemnly.

He didn't know what was on the street that could frighten the people of Wangcheng so much, but wasn't that brain-damaged patient transferred to another hospital overnight and left in an ambulance?

Forget it, leaving the hospital now is useless. There's no escaping it. Dr. Zhang has been operating in Wangcheng for over twenty years. If I miss tonight's opportunity, he'll come back to his senses and bring all the ghosts in the hospital to get me...

Then it's all over.

“Don’t leave. Go help. At least find out what Dr. Zhang’s current capabilities are.”

Yan Ming made a judgment while glancing at the time on his phone.

It's past 3:30 now; they've just spent a long time in the underground experimental area.

Although the harvest was considerable, the wake-up time for the person in the mirror was drawing ever closer. "Find a place to hide yourself. We might not be able to help you from now on. Stay as far away from here as possible," Yan Ming said, turning to look at Li Jiahao.

However, when he saw Li Jiahao, he immediately felt something was off.

Li Jiahao lowered his head deeply, his bangs falling down to cover his eyes, his skin color was noticeably lighter, and his whole body was swollen.

This is……

A very apt idea popped into Yan Ming's mind.

balloon!

"He's about to explode!"

As soon as the thought crossed Yan Ming's mind, the nurse ghost at the feet of the ghost-eyed corpse immediately reached out and grabbed the railing in the distance, using the movement of the shadow to move the corpse.

At the same time, the ghost eye opened beside the corpse, and the male corpse grabbed the hand that reached out from the crack and pulled Yan Ming out.

The operation seemed complex, but it was completed in the blink of an eye, and they successfully hid behind a sofa in the lobby.

After being reminded by Yan Ming, the old woman made very few moves and jumped into the hospital reception area.

"boom!"

Li Jiahao's body exploded with a bang, and countless drops of blood splattered out, covering the entire first-floor lobby.

Without bones or flesh, the other tissues inside his body gradually turned into a belly full of pus and blood at some unknown time.

"coming."

Yan Ming didn't expect the ghost blood's attack to come faster than he had imagined. Fortunately, he noticed it in time and avoided getting his hands dirty with the pus and blood.

Something vaguely swam in the blood in the hall, darting into the emergency exit like a swordfish.

Without a word, without any mockery or greetings, the thing simply rushed headlong into the underground experimental area.

"It's Dr. Zhang." Yan Ming realized this. Dr. Zhang had obviously used Li Jiahao's corpse explosion to force them to leave the vicinity of the passage so that he could enter the underground experimental area more safely.

Just as he guessed, those collectibles were indeed very important to Dr. Zhang.

Ghost Blood, the Tailor Ghost Hand, and twelve precious Ghost Weapons.

If Dr. Zhang can really use all of these things at the same time, his strength is truly despair-inducing.

Fortunately, he and Slender Man had prepared for this in advance, in case there was a fork in the road guarding the door...

It's unlikely that Dr. Zhang will easily obtain the collectibles hidden at the evacuation point.

When he finally gets to the collection room after overcoming all the obstacles from the ghosts at the crossroads, he finds that the collection room has already been emptied. He must be feeling quite desperate.
"Grandma, please keep an eye on the underground experimental area for me," Yan Ming instructed, and then began adjusting the lighting in the lobby on the first floor.

Now that Dr. Zhang has entered the experimental area, things are much easier; we can just wait at the exit.

And he happens to have a high-burst skill specifically designed for this situation.

Nurse flying kick.

At this moment, Yan Ming noticed something and turned to look at the main entrance of the hospital lobby.

A gaunt, ghostly figure was perched on the ceiling, and directly below it was a gigantic creature that resembled a monster.

The ferocious demon was three meters tall, with a head that reached the ceiling. It was the size of an ape, covered in bone spurs, and had exceptionally thick forearms, bearing a resemblance to the monsters commonly seen in science fiction films.

Yan Ming knew that this thing was not a completely solid ghost; it had at least one ability to become ethereal, making it difficult to deal with in a real battle.

The slender ghost stared at Yan Ming for a long time, then looked at the scythe held in the ghostly hand behind Yan Ming, revealed a human-like smile, pointed to the underground experimental area, and slowly slipped in from above.

The evil spirit's gaze remained fixed on Yan Ming and the old woman, its ferocity suggesting a predatory intent to devour them, causing the elderly woman to gasp repeatedly.

However, the Slender Man only extended a tail-like shadow from afar, hooking the evil spirit into the underground experimental area.

"He's in there."

Yan Ming said loudly.
