Chapter 1729 You Can Call Me… Dr. Lin
The moment he saw that face clearly, [Chaos]’s pupils suddenly contracted!
“It’s you?!” [Chaos] spoke in confusion, “This is impossible… how can you be here?!”
Lin Qiye stood in the corridor in front of the second-floor ward, calmly looking down at [Chaos] below, and slowly said:
“You seem to have forgotten that originally, I was its master… There exists a causal connection between it and me, and as long as there is a causal link, I can enter.”
[Chaos] stared intently at Lin Qiye. Above him, a progress bar appeared:
“Lin Qiye Treatment Progress: 83%”
[Chaos] was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter: “So what if you came in? You came from the ward, which means you’re a patient here. As a patient, you can’t harm me… Your return only means you’ll die along with the others.”
As the words fell, [Chaos] raised his palm, and the light and shadows around him rapidly collapsed, transforming into a beam of light filled with destructive energy, thunderously shooting toward the second-floor corridor!
The Primordial Heavenly Lord frowned, his figure darting forward!
Boom——!!
A golden flower bloomed in the void, tearing that light beam apart in nothingness. The Primordial Heavenly Lord, wearing a blood-stained Taoist robe, stood weakly in front of Lin Qiye and spoke hoarsely:
“Lin Qiye, this is not a place you should come to… leave quickly.”
Lin Qiye shook his head. He stepped past the Primordial Heavenly Lord and instead stood in front of him.
Looking at the straight, deep red figure before him, the Primordial Heavenly Lord was slightly stunned.
“Heavenly Lord, for the past thousand years, humanity has been under the care of the Heavenly Court… This time, let us handle it.” Lin Qiye’s voice slowly came from in front.
The Primordial Heavenly Lord frowned, about to say something more, but realized that the Lin Qiye before him seemed somewhat different from the one he had met before… Though his aura and body were that of Lin Qiye, he seemed like a different person, mysterious and unfamiliar.
“You…” confusion appeared on the Primordial Heavenly Lord’s face.
“Lin Qiye, you’re being too confident,” [Chaos] raised his eyebrows slightly. “Last time, right here, I took your hospital from you, stole your physical body… Why are you still so slow to learn? How much courage has a Hongmeng Spirit Embryo given you?
Don’t forget, I am now the master of this hospital. What can you use to fight me?”
“This hospital has never had a master… That’s what you told me when you took it.” Lin Qiye calmly replied. “I wasn’t before, and you… are even less so now. You’ve merely put on this garment, crowned yourself with the title of director, and plundered some of its abilities.
This hospital, like you, comes from beyond this world, and it has its own consciousness. Do you think it would willingly allow itself to be continuously plundered by you, reduced to a tool of slaughter?”
“What if it’s unwilling? What can it do?” [Chaos] snorted coldly. “The consciousness of this hospital has been completely worn away by me. Now, my will is the will of this hospital! I am its only master.”
“Is it worn away completely, or… did it actively hide itself away?”
Hearing these words, [Chaos]’s brows slightly furrowed.
“Hide? Where could it hide? On you?”
“When you took this hospital, you expelled me out. It certainly couldn’t hide on me. But don’t forget, besides me… there are other beings existing in this hospital.” Lin Qiye extended his hand, pointing at the ground beneath his feet,
“For example, the orderlies?”
[Chaos], as if remembering something, looked somewhat gloomy. “Those low-level ‘mysteries’ that don’t even qualify as myths? Do you think the consciousness of this hospital from beyond the domain would choose them?”
Lin Qiye stared at [Chaos] for a long time, not answering His question, but instead asked:
“Do you know what your greatest weakness is?”
[Chaos] frowned silently.
“You’re too arrogant,” Lin Qiye slowly said.
“You are one of the three pillar gods of theGram system, and the strongest one… To you, humans are merely a low-level species. You enjoy observing them, imitating them, toying with them, just as humans enjoy watching ants move house. You relish the pleasure and satisfaction that comes from understanding the thoughts and actions of lower beings.
And in your eyes, ‘mysteries’ and humans alike are insignificant races, as trivial as ants. But you’ve overlooked one thing…
In every race, there are some special existences.”
[Chaos] looked at Lin Qiye, seemingly not understanding why he would say these things at this moment… Just as He was about to take action to resolve this trouble, the sound of a door opening came from behind.
Creak——
Another one?
Hearing the door open, [Chaos]’s heart skipped a beat. He turned to look, but found that this time it wasn’t any ward door that had opened… but the door to the director’s office.
A figure wearing a deep green orderly uniform slowly walked out.
In his palm, a white chess piece was emitting a faint light!
Seeing that long-absent face, Lin Qiye’s lips curved slightly upward. “Long time no see… Li Yifei.”
“Hehe.” Li Yifei looked at the chess piece in his hand and laughed, “Uncle Merlin was right. Even I have an irreplaceable role… I’ve waited for so many years, and this day has finally fucking arrived!”
He gripped the chess piece in his hand and threw it forcefully toward Lin Qiye. A beam of light crossed the void, landing precisely in Lin Qiye’s palm!
“Locking us in the dungeon, huh?! Not seeing us as human, huh?! Old [Chaos]! Your Master Li has been tolerating you for a long time!” Li Yifei waved his hand grandly and shouted with great vigor, “Qiye! Take Him down!!!”
A brilliant light burst forth from the chess piece in Lin Qiye’s palm. The hospital consciousness that had been dormant in Li Yifei’s body for so long finally reappeared in this moment!
The shattered ground began to rapidly repair itself, the desolate grassland burned out and regenerated. A mysterious gaze converged on Lin Qiye, and all the rules of this hospital were frantically gathering toward him!
That was the anger of all the orderlies trapped in the dungeon, suffering endless torment!
That was the hostility and unwillingness born from the hospital’s consciousness under [Chaos]’s corruption!
That was the first move in a chess game spanning two thousand years, and the winning move that would overturn the world situation. His name… was Li Yifei!
At this moment, the white coat draped over [Chaos] suddenly self-ignited, instantly turning to ash and disappearing without a trace. He looked at his own hands in astonishment as a virtual panel lit up above His head…
“Nyarlathotep Treatment Progress: 95%”
At the same time, on the door plate of the sixth ward in the hospital, the original mark gradually faded away, transforming back into a surging darkness.
Patient and doctor, their identities instantly switched!
Lin Qiye’s hand grasped in the void, and a brand-new white coat appeared draped over his shoulders. He took out a pair of black-framed glasses from the coat pocket and gently placed them on the bridge of his nose.
With a warm smile, he walked toward the astonished [Chaos],
“Hello, my patient number six, Nyarlathotep.
My name is Lin Qiye. I am your attending physician, and also the director here. You can call me… Doctor Lin.”
