Infinite Flow: Becoming a God in a Nightmare Game

However, he couldn't guarantee that other players would be as unaffected by assimilation as he was.

Jiang Qi is not too affected yet; everything is still under his control.

As the farce came to an end, other astute players began to analyze it.

Lin Wanchu and Lu Xue also mentioned that they had entered an illusion. As expected, only the illusion experienced by Jiang Qi featured a female nurse.

They didn't encounter any nurses coming to their ward to change their dressings.

Jiang Qi's luck turned negative, making things even worse.

This isn't too bad news, and Jiang Qi is still able to handle it calmly.

An hour later, after the meal, the nurse came over and gave each patient a breakfast pill.

Jiang Qi and the other three held a pill in their hands, which looked no different from ordinary medicine.

Jiang Qi held the capsule, looking at it from left to right.

Based on the packaging alone, it would be difficult for players to know what kind of medicine it is.

Immediately, in front of the nurse, Jiang Qi put it in his mouth without hesitation and made a swallowing motion.

The nurse watched with satisfaction as the patient obediently took her medicine. Lin Wanchu and Lu Xue, who were left behind, were still struggling with how to take their medicine without the nurse noticing that they hadn't actually taken it.

After hesitating for a while, the nurse began to have doubts.

Lin Wanchu and Lu Xue did not possess Jiang Qi's convincing fake medicine-taking skills.

The nurses' eyes grew increasingly terrifying, and they had no choice but to take the medication.

Lu Zhi didn't think too much about it; after all, what this monster ate didn't affect his body or mind.

The moment the medicine touched my lips, a bitter taste spread through my mouth.

Seeing that the patients were taking their medicine, the nurses organized them to go out for recreational activities.

The plates were cleared away by the cafeteria staff, and the mess on the table was instantly cleaned up.

However, the way the cafeteria caregivers looked at the patients while cleaning up was strange.

They acted as if they were some kind of delicious food.

Jiang Qi and his three companions couldn't wait to leave the cafeteria.

Fortunately, the cafeteria didn't have strict requirements for them to save food; otherwise, they would definitely be held accountable for leaving so much food uneaten.

The group of patients were led to the playground they had passed on their way there. The sun was shining brightly, but it still couldn't dispel the chilly feeling that lingered in the hospital.

The nurse straightened her expression, her face becoming serious, and gave instructions to the new patients in front of her.

"Since it's only your first day at the hospital, please don't go to the back hill area on your own during recreational activities."

"Otherwise, you will bear the consequences."

Then, the nurse waved her hand, letting the patient move around freely.

Recreational activities included both outdoor and indoor activities; some patients sunbathed, while others chose to follow the nurses to the indoor recreation room.

This includes Lin Wanchu and Lu Xue; the four of them have already started to act separately.

Time is of the essence; we cannot afford to be careless.

The loudspeaker on the playground also played music at the right time, which was soothing and calming.

While the new patients were enjoying their leisure time, the older patients were already being organized to eat in the cafeteria.

Some patients looked over there curiously; the number of long-term patients seemed to far outnumber the new patients in their line of work.

Jiang Qi squinted at the elderly patients. They walked slowly, their eyes were vacant, and they moved like zombies.

It seems the situation is far from serious.

Leading them was a doctor.

He wore gold-rimmed glasses, a white lab coat, and black leather shoes, giving him a refined and scholarly appearance.

Jiang Qi raised his arm and nudged Lu Zhi beside him, asking, "Do you think it could be Zhang Yongzhi?"

Lu Zhi crossed his arms, stared in the direction of the doctor, and shook his head to indicate that he didn't know.

"Although I don't know if he is Zhang Yongzhi, I sensed a sense of sadness from him."

"Brother, you can feel it too, right?"

"The other doctors and nurses we saw were almost all mechanically repeating the same behavior of caring for patients."

"Their expressions didn't change much either; they seemed more like..."

Lu Zhi didn't finish his sentence.

He believed that his brother felt the same way.

Lu Zhi stopped speaking, and Jiang Qi looked at him in surprise. It was rare for him to talk so much, so he analyzed the situation with him.

Jiang Qi didn't see Lu Zhi's cold profile; instead, he met Lu Zhi's dark eyes directly.

A few seconds later, Lu Zhi looked away. He just wanted to walk alongside his brother to make up for the regret of only daring to secretly follow Jiang Qi in his previous life.

Lu Zhi was naturally very happy that his brother was willing to ask him questions and rely on him.

Seeing his brother's vivid expression, Lu Zhi was afraid that the desire in his eyes would frighten Jiang Qi, so he was the first to look away.

The patient's movements are unrestricted during recreational activities.

Aside from the taboo of the back mountain, even when the nurse mentioned it, her eyes couldn't hide the fear, as if there were some terrifying ghosts or monsters in the back mountain.

Among the patients in this group, there was no Li Zhaodi, whom they were looking for.

Jiang Qi decided to head to the hospital lobby area first, hoping to find the information he needed.

Upon reaching the entrance to the hospital lobby, a layout map of the hospital is displayed on the right.

Upon seeing the arrangement of the wards, Jiang Qi's pupils involuntarily contracted slightly, and his eyes darkened.

Surprisingly, room 404 is not shown on this layout.

As soon as he entered the instance, the nightmare game threw him into the non-existent ward 404.

Nightmare Game really knows how to play its cards.

This building has ten floors.

The top floor is the dean's office, and next to it is the archives room.

The basement level is the hospital's morgue.

The hospital's layout was also very strange; a lush banyan tree was planted in the open space in front of the lobby.

The tree branches completely blocked out the sunlight, the hospital gate was rusty, and there was an iron padlock on it, wrapped with chains several times.

Jiang Qi had some knowledge of feng shui; banyan trees are plants that attract yin energy and are a favorite of ghosts.

Logically speaking, a reputable hospital wouldn't make such a basic mistake and violate feng shui taboos.

Looking at the black aura emanating from the banyan tree, Lu Zhi deliberately asked Jiang Qi to stay away.

He then approached the banyan tree and looked at the thick trunk, where several things that looked like human figures but weren't, like tumors, had grown on it.

Lu Zhi recognized this thing—a human-faced tumor.

If you look at it for a long time, you might even get the illusion that the tumor is slowly opening its eyes.
