Chapter 216: The Instinct of Death

Lewinholm, on the banks of the river in the city.

A group of gentlemen, mainly in light-colored coats, are searching for the supposed 'Death Factor', all wearing sun badges, exactly the same as the sign of the Sunshine Hospital, but reduced in size.

The man at the head is none other than the current director of Sunshine Hospital, the founder of Sun Secret Medicine. Campbell.

His influence coefficient as a doctor is in the top 10 among tin safety doctors.

dark-skinned bald head,

The anamorphic structure of the costume (71% leather), the white tapered robe, the surface is covered with wavy golden sun lines, and the back even derives an exaggerated sun disc (a peculiarity of the gentleman's skin), which even resembles the structure of his wings.

If you take off your coat, you will find that his black skin has been partially flared, and the lines of his skin that shine with gold spots just happen to draw a sun pattern on his back.

Everywhere he went, the fog of the nearby streets would be dispelled.

The output of each bottle of Sun Elixir will go through his 'Sunlight Fermentation'.

Now, what happened to Lewinholm has completely paralyzed the hospital and the secret medicine system, and even he, the famous dean of the sun, has been unable to find the root cause.

Yesterday he even received a personal letter from the top of Zion,

Zion's top brass has decided that if Lewinholm's death toll continues to grow and exceeds the rated number, it will be necessary to abandon the entire city, including the hospital he has worked so hard to run to this day.

Therefore, he immediately brought six reserve doctors carefully trained by him in the hospital to search for the pathogen in every corner of the city in the name of the [Church of the Sun], determined to find the pathogen before the organization gave the order to completely evacuate.

however

The impatience in his heart was gradually amplified with the passage of time, and when Dis ordered to rely on their own senses, self-thoughts, and abilities to search separately, [impatience] evolved into [gap].

Two hours later, when the team regrouped.

One of the reserve doctors in the team who was valued by Diess did not return to the team, and even if he radiated the sun out at the first time, he still did not get any sense.

Missing!

At this moment, even Dies's heart gave birth to a sense of retreat, a fear of the unknown, and the sun wheel on his back dimmed a lot.

【Sunshine Hospital-General Ward】

Yi Chen's four-person squad was slightly sluggish.

Mr. Helvoye found nothing by the most conventional autopsy methods, all three fresh corpses were craniopsied, and all brain tissues that could have been invaded by pathogens were dissected and dissolved with the detection agent.

Even the white-robed Lotson, who had always been optimistic and squinting, frowned slightly, and he controlled the blood to flow through every corner of the corpse's brain, and he also found nothing.

Everything is normal, there is no illness at all, this is the only conclusion that can be drawn at the moment.

So what is the cause of such large-scale, ever-increasing deaths?

Yi Chen was naturally not idle,

He stared at the still fresh brain between the skulls, his vision wandering between the sulci in an attempt to figure out what was wrong.

In the process,

Unconsciously, a drop of saliva actually slipped down the corner of his mouth.

As a characteristic skill of the [student], the central taste, it is passively activated by the brains of the deceased, who are not polluted or diseased.

Yi Chen hurriedly wiped it away with his palm.

At this time, the voice of the little grape came:

"That's right! Isn't it possible for you kid to get memory fragments directly by absorbing cerebral medullary fluid? You eat all these corpses at once, and you can figure it out with a healthy memory of death.'"

"Little Grape, did you ever think that I might die because of this?"

"It's okay~ In case you die, I'll pack it for you and send it back to the Seven Days Cemetery immediately. With your current physical condition, you will be able to climb out again after fermenting in the cemetery for a hundred days at most."

"No kidding, unless you have to do so, don't consider ingesting cerebrospinal fluid for the time being. Mr. Helvoye, as a veteran autopsy, must have his own unique method, so let's take a look."

"Cowardly!"

No matter what Xiao Grape said, Yi Chen would definitely not take this risk.

At this moment,

Mr. Helvoye's breath changed, and the smell of rotten wood mixed with corpses emanated from his body, and he decided to resort to some unconventional autopsy methods.

His 'tactics' have also been reported by the organization, which is one of the reasons why he has been an autopsy from beginning to end without promotion.

Take off your coat,

Rubber-like gloves and rain boots are removed together, too,

The exposed hands and feet are covered with tiny holes, which make people's scalp tingle when they look at it.

A closer look reveals that these holes are enlarged pores that seem to be hiding something.

"What I'm going to do next will be contrary to gentlemanly character and personality ethics to a certain extent, but the original intention is to find the root cause of death, and if this method still doesn't work, I will voluntarily abandon this mission.

You guys step back a little. ”

At Helvoye's signal, Yi Chen and the others and the clinic apprentices retreated to the door of the ward

He leaned over and propped his palms on the ground, drops of thick liquid spilling out of the honeycomb-like pores, drawing strange formations on the ground.

Zizizi~ The light bulb in the sick room began to flicker.

As he pulled his hands up, a handmade brown coffin rose to the ground.

Ga~

The erected coffin disintegrated on its own, and a 'corpse' with a line of proportions drawn on the human body stood in place.

Yi Chen could detect that the corpse summoned by the old gentleman was alive, and its whole body organs were functioning normally, but the brain was empty.

His eyes were tightly closed, exuding yin qi, like a living dead.

Helvoye immediately disembowels the living dead,

Then, through a perfect 'human brain grafting', the brain of a cadaver that has been dead for less than half an hour is transferred to the skull of the living dead.

After sewing up his skull, Mr. Helvoye immediately exited the ward to join the team, considering the possibility of death spreading.

Click! Close the door and leave only a small hole to peek into the room.

The living dead summoned by Helvoye will take in foreign organs, and the nerves and blood vessels will quickly connect and begin to pump the freshest blood to the brain.

Ha...... Take a deep breath

The confused eyes slowly became attentive,

Spread out his arms and quickly inspect this new body, and then twisted his head to observe the surrounding scene,

Suddenly, he ran towards the window,

Even if he is fully adapted to the new body, he still bursts out with a running speed beyond his instinct, and a strong will stimulates the crazy secretion of adrenal hormones.

Bang!

Crashing through the glass window of the ward, he fell vertically from the height of a seven-story building, and perfectly touched the ground with his head.

Smack!

Everyone also went downstairs to the outside of the hall for the first time.

The brain and blood are spreading outward,

The corpse with a broken cervical vertebra and a sunken head could barely see the exact appearance, and the man was filled with a smile of great happiness, as if his dream had been realized, and it had been fulfilled twice.

Seeing this, Helvoye got a preliminary guess.

"Instinct, like human beings are born to breathe, to take in oxygen from the air, and to seek food when they are hungry.

As living beings, we will instinctively avoid death, and we will avoid the risk of death as much as possible in our daily life, and when we encounter death events that can threaten our lives, the body will even secrete hormones to let us burst out of our body functions beyond the usual level for a period of time, so as to avoid danger and escape from death.

however

This man's death-averse instinct has been completely reversed.

He does not avoid death, but actively seeks it...... Moreover, the instinct for the pursuit of [death] ranks first, and it is even possible to fall into a state of excitement during the pursuit, and do everything in its power to accomplish all this.

A concept of 'death' has been implanted in their consciousness in a way that cannot be identified by conventional autopsies.

This is just my guess, I need more fresh corpse samples! Confinement of the living dead who attempted suicide and vivisection of the brain during the suicidal impulse may be able to identify the problem. ”

Then

The white-haired Lotson in the team looked at the living dead who had committed suicide by jumping off the building in front of him, and at Mr. Helvoye, who was excited by the breakthrough in the investigation, and the corners of his mouth overflowed with a grotesque smile.
