Xia Xiu's soles of his feet were ravaged by Heard a few times before he let it go, and by this time Hilde's pale face had already left a clear trace of shoe prints.

"Ahem~"

When Xia Xiu's soles were removed, Hilde couldn't help but start coughing loudly, his nose was frantically agitating, he was breathing in fresh air, the pain in his mind like being chopped by a knife and axe was still stirring his cranial nerves, and he couldn't rest for a moment.

Bang Dong –

Hilde heard the sound of the bench moving in front of him, and his heart was instantly filled with fear, and he raised his head in panic and looked ahead.

In front, the blonde young man pulled the bench next to him, and then sat down straight, he looked condescendingly at Hilde, who looked like a lost dog, and Hilde couldn't help but start sweating under the gaze of the other party's golden eyes.

"Don't be so nervous, take it easy, it's more convenient for us to talk later." Xia Xiu said in a warm tone to Hilde, who was so nervous that he was trembling.

“······ You're right. Heard replied with a reluctant smile.

Looking at Hilde who was smiling reluctantly, Xia Xiu didn't care much, he needed to take some more information from this guy before the other party was repaired by the dream.

Xia Xiu glanced up and down at the other party's clothes, and then asked:

"What's your name and what is your profession now?"

"Hilde, my lord, my name is Hilde." Hilde hurriedly replied, and then he continued to say to Xia Xiu:

"My current profession is a [Correctional Security Officer] at the [Truth House], and my role is to correct patients who disagree with the [Truth House's] system and are dissatisfied with the management of the head nurse."

Truth House, Thought Corrector, Head Nurse·······

It seems that Atliff's dream is really a mental hospital. Xia Xiu said secretly in his heart.

"Go on, I'm very interested in what you're talking about [the House of Truth]."

The blonde young man folded his hands together, his chin resting on top of the crossed hands, his golden eyes silently staring at Hilde.

Hilde became even more nervous under the watchful eye of the other man, and he raised his head and began to tell the other party what [the House of Truth] was.

Xia Xiu sat on the bench and listened quietly to Hilde's description, and soon he determined the core structure of the [House of Truth].

In this psychiatric hospital, the head nurse is the absolute power, and her words are almost equivalent to orders. Patients must comply with hospital rules or face punishment, which may include injections of exemplary drugs, electric shocks, or even forced confinement.

The head nurse has full monitoring and control, and can even punish one patient out of the blue, while the others obediently watch it.

In this psychiatric hospital, there is a special institution of violence, the thought corrector.

Their task is to maintain the order of treatment and correct the patient's ideological problems, even any behavior that shows abnormal behavior, they will often carry out violent acts to suppress the patient, such as forced electroconvulsive therapy, use abusive methods, etc., and even beat the patient to death, so that other patients know who is the ultimate truth.

The class division [of the House of Truth] is obvious, the head nurse is the master of the entire psychiatric hospital and has absolute power, while other staff such as doctors and nurses are in a lower position, and the head nurse can decide the treatment and treatment of patients at will, and can even punish and deprive patients of their liberty.

As for why there is such an absurd power structure, it is of course because this is a dream, or a dream that Atliff specifically maintains, but sometimes reality is more ridiculous than dreams, and this kind of thing has not never happened in this world.

In addition to the head nurse, it is a violent institution that maintains the stability of the hospital.,Corrector.。

There are two main types of correctors: one is the ordinary correctors who are responsible for investigating and apprehending "thorns", who wear blue uniforms, also known as "blue robes", and usually do this job by other caregivers in the hospital; The other category is the higher level of correctors, known as the "black robes", who wear black uniforms and have higher privileges and powers, and are responsible for monitoring and suppressing dissent in the courtyard.

"With such a high-pressure structural system, it seems that [hidden] relies on this to maintain the rule of this dream." Xia Xiumo rubbed his chin and said secretly in his heart.

[Fantasy Dream] is a parallel space composed of the subconscious and the imagination, in which the physical laws are very different from reality, in which the dream is real, and [Fantasy Dream] except for the main four continent regions, the other fantasy film segments are custom rules, set the rules by the dream maker, and maintain the rules.

The creators and maintainers of the illusion film will gain power from it, after all, dreams are also part of the [Aether Ocean], and drawing power from dreams is equivalent to drawing power from [Aether Ocean], but its way of drawing is a bit deviant and dangerous compared to regular thaumaturgists.

"Are you going to report my situation to the head nurse later?" Xia Xiu squinted slightly at Hilde.

In this dream, each new "patient" is to stay in Room 101 and be tested by the black robes, who will rate the patients according to their reactions, from high to low: [Good], [Normal], [Controlled], and [Dangerous].

[Danger]: Patients with severe illness need to be corrected in 101 for a long time, and only then will the patients become more rational.

[Control]: Relatively dangerous patients, who need to be assisted by drugs and admonishment, patients of this level are in a semi-confused and semi-conscious state, and they always think that they are some kind of awakened person, which is a sign of terminal illness.

[Normal]: Normal patients need to take their medicine on time, as long as they take their medicine on time, I believe that the patient will recover soon.

[Good]: Patients in good condition, they will consciously take their medication on time, will consciously help the correctors to "cure" other patients, and have the right to enjoy the electric frequency room 24 hours a day.

Oh, the radio room is a room with TV bottles on all sides, and the TV in the room will play a steady stream of programs that can make you laugh and forget the time, and listen to Hilde, even the advertisements in it are very vivid and interesting.

“··· Yes, we all need to report the situation of the new patient to the head nurse, it is necessary, reasonable, and correct..." When he heard Xia Xiu's question, Heard naturally replied to him.

In his mind, the head nurse is the absolute authority, a rule that cannot be disobeyed.

"So what's my rating?"

The blonde young man looked at Hild with interest, his eyes filled with playfulness.

"Think from your point of view, objectively, and ideally, answer me, what level of patient am I."

Hilde looked at the blonde young man tremblingly, he didn't know whether he should lie or not, no matter how he looked at the person in front of him, he was a terminally ill and hopeless madman, he was no longer a [dangerous] existence.

"Aha, of course you are good, you can only be good like this."

Hilde finally chose to answer "honestly", and his honesty made Xia Xiu feel very satisfied.

"Well, that's good, I like honest people."

Xia Xiu got up and walked to the kneeling Hilde, he next had to ask the other party to honestly tell the head nurse the report, otherwise he would not be able to integrate into the dream she created.

"I need you to tell the head nurse my report, in order to prevent the head nurse from seeing the abnormality, I need you to cooperate with me to do a small thing."

"You... What do you need from me. Hilde looked up at Xia Xiu with a puzzled expression.

Xia Xiu looked at Hilde with a smile, and he said to Hilde:

"Have you ever heard of [Reset]?"

"Reset??"

Hilde repeated the words put forward by Xia Xiu in confusion, looking at Xia Xiu with a smile on his face, a strong uneasiness surged in his heart, and he felt that something bad was going to happen next.

Soon, his inspiration was validated.

"Dreams are actually very exclusive to people who have lucid dreams, you are more or less awake now, if nothing else, you should be [personality reset] by this dream, but you have to reset anyway, instead of letting this dream reset you, I might as well help you."

Soft and magnetic, as if a magical voice reached Hilde's ears.

Hilde, who fell to the ground, looked at the blonde youth a little blankly, obviously the distance between the two was so close, but he felt that the distance between him and the other party was an abyss, the gentle eyes of the blonde youth looked at him quietly, and at the same time raised his own steps and slowly approached him.

Under Hilde's gaze, a right hand similar to an artist approached him, and the light was projected on the ground through the gap between his fingers, forming some soft spots of light, and the slender five fingers were already clasped on the door of his head before he could react.

"Heard, I'll see you later."

Xia Xiu's [Absurd Manipulation] that entered the reading mode in advance had already finished reading the strip at this time, and the [Concrete Materialization Process] was launched in an instant at this time.

[Ridiculous Pollution: Message Bombing]

Xia Xiu's previously customized information began to superimpose in Hilde's consciousness frantically, and under such a powerful Mimu pollution, Hilde's body began to become distorted, and at this time, his body and the environment around him were like a distorted mosaic, with small squares of different colors constantly flickering alternately, gorgeous and colorful.

Puff –

With a peculiar fever sound, a new Hilde appeared in place.

The newly appeared Hilde's missing teeth and bruised face were all gone, and he looked the same as Xia Xiu had seen before he first entered Room 101, but his expression seemed to be a little dazed now.

"Mr. Heard, are you alright?"

A magnetic voice rang in Hilde's ear, and he looked up at the person who spoke.

In front of him was a young and handsome young man.

A golden mane gently hangs down in front of his forehead, shining gently in the light of the room light, his eyes are clear and bright, like two stars, exuding a kind and warm light, the slightly upturned nose bridge and tightly closed lips give people a sense of calmness, the whole face is well-defined, the facial features are exquisite, without a trace of flaws, exuding a charming handsome temperament.

Well, it's the wound on the forehead that makes people pay more attention, and this wound looks like it's new.

"The wound on your forehead?" Hilde asked the blonde young man his doubts.

"Oh, I was mixed with a dog when I came in, and I knocked it out."

"That dog should really be beaten!"

"Don't worry, it's already been hit." The blonde youth replied with a warm smile.

I don't know why, looking at the warm smile of the blonde youth, Hilde always felt very relieved and warm, and the blonde youth in front of him had an indescribable affinity for him.

"By the way, who are you?" Hielde's head was still dizzy at this point.

"I, I'm a new patient." Xia Xiu pretended to be puzzled and looked at Hilde and said.

"Yes, yes, you're a new patient, and as is customary, you need to come to me for a test first." Hilde clutched his somewhat dazed head, he always felt as if he had forgotten something important.

"Yes, we were just testing, and you have already rated me personally, it is good."

The soft tone of the blonde young man reached Hilde's ears again, and his dizzy head seemed to really remember about the test, and by the way, he had already finished it.

The friendly and friendly young man in front of him was a patient in good condition.

"Yes, you're in good shape."

"Wait, I'll give you the [good] numbered plate."

A dazed Hilde nodded, and then he went to a safe in room 101 as usual, entered the code, opened the safe, and took out a sign engraved with [Good] and handed it to Xia Xiu.

Xia Xiu naturally took the number plate, and then he asked Hilde:

"When will I see the head nurse?"

"You can see the head nurse during the weekly patient survey, and now I have to report to the head nurse at this point, you go out with the number plate first, the number plate is the pass, and with him you can act in the [House of Truth]." Hilde replied to Xia Xiu.

"Yes." Xia Xiu threw the number plate in his hand and said with interest.

··········

Inside the mental hospital, an eerie atmosphere envelops the entire building.

Along the long corridors, the walls are deliberately painted a dull gray, as if to absorb all the light, leaving no room for it. The people in the hospital, whether they are patients or staff, are dressed in uniform white clothing, giving people a monotonous and boring feeling.

And today, a new patient has been welcomed here.

The door of the passage in Room 101 was opened, and a handsome young man with blond hair and golden eyes walked out of the passage with a leisurely face.
