Infinite: Dawn Game

The dean was so angry he almost laughed.

He stared coldly at Yu Shijiu, whose entire body was almost entirely surrounded by blood snakes, and grinned:

"Then let's gamble,"

"If you don't die, I'll let you know."

Since Yu Shijiu is going to die anyway, let's just satisfy his dying fantasy, considering he had a pleasant conversation with Xuexue.

Yu Shijiu, who was defined as a dead man, laughed even more happily.

He looked down and pulled a thin, cicada-wing-like human skin from his pocket, sticking it to his face before the dean realized something was wrong.

At the same time, the dean's face twisted in agony. He contorted as if he wanted the blood snake to devour Yu Shijiu completely, but he found himself uncontrollably smiling, and his tone became timid and aggrieved:

"mom."

When the word was uttered, the players outside the screen were completely stunned.

"Holy crap," one player whispered, "This actually works?!"

"..."

"Item: 'Mother's Love' has been activated. Item duration: 10 minutes."

--------

Elevator on the second floor.

After the elevator doors opened, He Lingling and Xu Han stepped out of the elevator. When they peeked out and saw two nurses with tongues on their faces walking back and forth, they quickly retreated back into the elevator.

"How do we get across?"

When Xu Han peeked out just now, he saw that there was nothing strange in the depths of the corridor not far away, but the problem now is, what to do with these two nurses walking back and forth?

He Lingling: "..."

Her eyes are still a little sore, and the side effects of the early warning are quite serious. For example, she can't see people very clearly now, even though Xu Han is so close to her.

She rubbed her eyes. "Do you have any props?"

Xu Han: "..." He hesitated for a few seconds, then rubbed his fingers together: "Um, aren't you ranked 342nd on the leaderboard—"

He was interrupted by He Lingling before he could finish speaking: "Don't be such a tightwad, you almost died just now."

Trying to take advantage of her? No way! What kind of shameless man would you be?!

Xu Han: "..."

Knowing he was in the wrong, he was now racking his brains trying to choose from the pile of miscellaneous props that Anjie and Chen Yi had given him.

A few seconds later, Xu Han's eyes lit up. He pulled out something that looked like a Gatling gun firework tube and whispered:

"This should be good. There are two bullets left. They say the fireworks from the bullets can attract monsters for five minutes, and each bullet can attract one monster, so we can use them twice."

He Lingling nodded after hearing this, pressed the button to open the elevator door, and gestured with her hand:

"Go."

Xu Han: "..."

"Well, I'm still a little scared," Xu Han said hesitantly.

"roll!"

Xu Han was kicked out of the elevator by He Lingling and ran into two strange nurses.

The nurse was clearly startled as well. After she came to her senses, her eyes lit up, and her tongue twitched wildly as she ran towards Xu Han.

Xu Han: "!!!"

He quickly pressed the button on his Gatling gun, and as two colorful firework bullets flew out, the two strange nurses visibly froze for a few seconds before turning and walking towards the burning fireworks at the end of the corridor.

Xu Han finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the two strange nurses watching the fireworks.

He wiped his sweat and waved to He Lingling inside the elevator.

"Let's go! Hurry up!! We need to find a room that's empty... and free of ghosts!"

He Lingling blinked hard, and only stepped out of the elevator after confirming that she felt better.

Unfortunately, after searching for many wards, the two finally stopped with grim expressions at the door of the only ward without a transparent glass window—the director's office.

"They all have them, they all have strange things..."

Xu Han felt a chill run down his spine and his sanity plummeted whenever he thought about patients whose tongues grew in various parts of their bodies. He felt as if tongues were about to grow on his face.

"Why are they all turning into bizarrely shaped tongues?" Xu Han wondered.

Some are twisted, some are wide, some are forked, some are long and densely packed with green bubbles... and so on.

Not to mention the possibility of being licked by those tongues, their foul-smelling saliva mixing with your own...

Xu Han admitted that he felt like vomiting whenever he saw those tongues.

If it weren't for the need to escape, he probably would have already run to the bathroom and vomited.

"It's possible he was fond of gossiping during his lifetime."

He Lingling gave a casual reply, then fell into a dilemma once again.

Based on the typical nature of games, the dean's office is likely to be a more terrifying place than other wards, but it could also be the safest.

"How many more minutes?"

Xu Han, still carrying the now-useless Gatling gun sparkler, glanced at the timer on the Gatling gun and said, "Three minutes left."

"If we still can't find a room without any strange occurrences in two minutes, we'll go into the dean's office."

“But,” Xu Han was still a little worried, “what if the dean looks even more disgusting?”

Generally speaking, the more disgusting someone looks, the stronger their abilities seem to be...

He Lingling rolled her eyes: "...What can we do! We can't just stand there and wait to die, can we? It's because you're not an offensive player!"

The reason they are in this predicament is because they don't have any aggressive players in their team. Otherwise, with healers and backup, they would never have been forced into this situation.

He Lingling now regrets it. She should have invited a few familiar aggressive players to join the game, which would have been better than being forced to team up with a healing player.

Xu Han fell silent. In truth, he would talk to distract himself from his fear when he was scared, but he knew that in the end, he would have no choice but to go to the dean's office.

"……it is good."

-

The dean, who called Yu Shijiu "Mom," had a contorted face. The tiny blood snakes on the wounds writhed and twisted with their owner's emotions, almost turning into red pretzel-like strands.

"Hey."

Yu Shijiu accepted the title without any burden. When he looked up again, all the players saw a face that was completely different from before.

It was the gentle face of a girl in her early twenties, with fair skin, watery eyes, and features that bore a striking resemblance to the dean's face.

—He looks ten or twenty years younger than the dean.

It's estimated that the age of this face is determined by the age of its owner.

“My dear son,” Yu Shijiu slowly severed the blood snake that was biting him, bit by bit, and the dean’s face grew paler and paler.

"These things of yours make me a little uneasy. Can't you take them all back?"

What appears to be a question is actually a command.

The dean had no choice but to reluctantly retract the blood snake, and his pale, cracked face began to slowly return to normal.

Even though he hated Yu Shijiu so much he wanted to skin him alive, the dean's eyes held a coy yet loving expression, giving off a strange sense of pretense.

"How about this?" The dean carefully patted his wrinkled white coat, putting his hands behind his back like a child who had done something wrong.

Yu Shijiu nodded in satisfaction, "That's acceptable."

Dean: "..."
