“This hospital is not right!”
Chen Bugu stood in front of the display board for a long time, repeatedly recalling the time he had just seen, and still felt it was a bit strange.
He walked to the door of the Director's Office, gently pushed it open, wanting to confirm with Lin Ye again.
As soon as Chen Bugu pushed the door open, he was about to speak when he suddenly noticed that Lin Ye's state was off.
Lin Ye was standing in front of the desk at this moment, breathing rapidly, veins bulging on his forehead, his whole body trembling, and his eyes, looking at Chen Bugu, were bloodshot.
Those eyes were filled with violence, hatred, and rage.
“Teacher Lin, you…”
Before he could finish speaking, a wooden stick spun rapidly, flying straight towards his face.
Chen Bugu quickly retreated a step, raising his hands to block his head.
The wooden stick hit Chen Bugu's arms squarely, and he felt a tingling sensation in both arms.
As soon as Chen Bugu lowered his hands, he saw the two antlers of a Savage Beast appear before his eyes.
After throwing the flying stick, Lin Ye immediately activated the Sheep Attribute, and the Savage Beast appeared faster than Chen Bugu had anticipated, catching him off guard.
Savage Beast!?
Lin Ye is serious!?
While Chen Bugu was surprised, he activated “Bullet Time” and retreated continuously down the corridor behind him, his mind racing.
“Clang~”
After the Savage Beast crashed through the door frame, it still stared intently at Chen Bugu.
Amidst the swirling smoke, Lin Ye slowly walked out of the Director's Office, leaning against the wall.
“Teacher Lin, what are you doing?!”
Chen Bugu shouted, but received no reply from Lin Ye.
All that responded to him was the Savage Beast's charge.
A nearly 200-kilogram Savage Beast, running down the corridor, was practically a land armored vehicle.
And those already exaggeratedly huge antlers covered the entire narrow space of the corridor with their attack range.
In a head-on confrontation, Chen Bugu simply could not dodge those antlers.
Helpless, he continuously retreated, all the way back to the hall on the sixth floor.
The Savage Beast and Chen Bugu faced each other from a distance, while Lin Ye, riding a Snow Mystic Antelope, slowly emerged from the corridor behind.
At this moment, even the most obtuse Chen Bugu finally realized.
Lin Ye must have encountered some problem.
He sat on the Snow Mystic Antelope's back, his whole body still trembling uncontrollably, his eyes filled with rage, hatred, and fury, having completely lost his sanity.
Moreover, Lin Ye's strength had inexplicably increased, whether it was the speed of summoning by activating the Sheep Attribute or the number of magical beasts that could be summoned at once, he had already reached the level of Black Iron Three Stars.
Chen Bugu did not know what Lin Ye had experienced in the Director's Office, but what he did know was that if he didn't sober up soon, he would be in big trouble.
Sitting on the Snow Mystic Antelope's back, Lin Ye picked up the wooden stick he had thrown earlier.
The Snow Mystic Antelope's hind hooves bent, a signal that it was preparing to charge.
The next second, Lin Ye, riding the Snow Mystic Antelope, rapidly approached, and the Savage Beast also began to run again.
Chen Bugu cursed under his breath, turned, and rushed down the stairs.
Can't fight!
Lin Ye's state was as if he had been hypnotized, every move he made was with the intention of taking Chen Bugu's life.
Chen Bugu could neither make Lin Ye sober up nor directly kill Lin Ye.
To constantly fight with a Black Iron Three Stars summoning-type Awakened while being constrained, he might as well just run away and find others for help first.
Chen Bugu rushed down to the first floor lobby in one breath, then sprinted at full speed towards the main entrance of the Outpatient Building, for which he did not hesitate to activate “Bullet Time” for 1 second.
No choice, the Snow Mystic Antelope is a magical beast known for its speed; without “Bullet Time,” Chen Bugu had no way to disappear from under Lin Ye's nose.
Just as he was about to leave the Outpatient Building, Chen Bugu suddenly had a premonition; he felt something was wrong.
The moment his front foot stepped out the main door, Chen Bugu hurriedly activated “Bullet Time” again, only to see the scene before his eyes shatter completely, and a wooden stick came smashing towards him.
Chen Bugu quickly steadied himself, ducking down and rolling forward in the nick of time.
A gust of wind brushed past his scalp, and Chen Bugu narrowly avoided the blow.
He looked back and saw Lin Ye's eyes bloodshot, a wooden stick in his hand, staring intently at Chen Bugu, muttering something about “Director” and “blood for blood.”
Looking past Lin Ye, there was no Outpatient Lobby at all; this was clearly still on the sixth floor, in the corridor outside the Director's Office.
What's going on?
Wasted 3 seconds of “Bullet Time,” and didn't even escape the sixth floor?
What was the situation when he was escaping just now?
…
Hallucination!
Chen Bugu suddenly understood!
He had just fallen into a hallucination!
When?
Thinking this way, everything made sense, even Lin Ye's state seemed to be within a hallucination.
A purple light flashed in Chen Bugu's eyes, and Breaking was activated!
Indeed, the world before his eyes was like a calm water surface struck by a pebble, with ripples appearing out of nowhere.
Looking again, the sixth floor at this moment seemed no different from the sixth floor just now, but Chen Bugu still found two differences.
One was the environment; the surrounding environment instantly became completely dark, and the visibility dropped so quickly that Chen Bugu felt a moment of discomfort.
The reason for the change in brightness was the flashlight Chen Bugu had been biting in his mouth since the battle began; at this moment, that flashlight had turned into a bone.
Judging by its shape, it was most likely a human bone.
The thought of having been biting a bone just now made Chen Bugu instantly nauseous, and he quickly spit it aside.
The other difference was the display board in front of the stairwell.
What Jiang Yutang, what signing time…
There was no display board there at all!
It was all a hallucination!
Chen Bugu was already drenched in a cold sweat.
When did he and Lin Ye fall victim?
He hadn't noticed at all.
Without the slightest hesitation, Chen Bugu turned and rushed directly into the stairwell, “Bullet Time” activated again, and relying on his memory, he quickly descended the stairs in the darkness, instantly rushing to the first-floor Outpatient Lobby.
As Chen Bugu rushed towards the main entrance, he observed the environment of the first-floor Outpatient Lobby.
The dust on the ground, the rusty chairs, nothing seemed different.
The moment he rushed out the main door, this time the scenery before him did not change again, and only then did Chen Bugu finally dare to stop and catch his breath.
He looked back and found that Lin Ye had not pursued him downstairs at all.
The Outpatient Building was quiet, seemingly unchanged from before.
But in Chen Bugu's eyes, the Outpatient Building before him was full of strangeness everywhere.
Chen Bugu had seen illusion-type skills in his previous life, and some mental-type Awakeneds even had the ability to cause others to hallucinate.
However, this was the first time Chen Bugu had encountered a situation where the caster was nowhere to be seen from beginning to end, and he had no idea when he started seeing the illusions.
Moreover, Lin Ye's strength had genuinely increased, indicating that the caster could not only create illusions but also temporarily boost the strength of those affected. Although such boosts often came with a “price,” this did not affect its status as a powerful auxiliary ability in the slightest.
Having no other choice, Chen Bugu decided to meet up with others first.
Meanwhile, Yan Kuan, Wang Bin, and Lin Lin were sitting in the cafeteria on the first floor of the Ciyun Building, enjoying a rare “delicacy.”
