Chapter 268: Chapter 266 I’ve Been Here Before

PS: Chapter 265 has been blocked and is unlikely to be released any time soon. The revised manuscript has already been posted in the related works section at the very beginning of the directory.

...

The nurse lay on the ground, her body still twitching like a freshly landed fish. Wen Wen, with disgust, kicked her and sent her flying.

Seeing how frail the nurse was, Wen Wen was about to kill them one by one when he noticed the nurses scream, cover their eyes, and run away in all directions.

"Tsk, I didn’t ’molest’ you guys, why are you running?" Wen Wen complained habitually, then his expression turned ugly.

He was a person with a very active mind, and just by saying the word ’molest’, he thought of himself molesting the nurses here...

"You all deserve to die!"

He snapped his fingers, and a flame appeared out of thin air, ready to be unleashed, when suddenly a hand grabbed his trouser leg—it was the blood-drenched Zhu Haiyang.

Wen Wen pondered for a moment, then dispersed the flame.

"Don’t go, save me, I’m about to die," Zhu Haiyang let out a hoarse wail.

Wen Wen looked at Zhu Haiyang’s face, then at a trail of bloody footprints left by a fleeing nurse, as if he understood something.

Then squatting in front of him, he smiled and said, "You must have been tortured horribly by them, your hoarse voice even sounds somewhat like theirs."

The howling of Zhu Haiyang immediately became much softer, and he looked at Wen Wen with a bit of fear.

Wen Wen’s smile became more sincere, "I mean no harm, how long have you been here, and how much do you know about this place?"

"I was caught by those nurses as soon as I woke up, I know nothing... I’ve lost a lot of blood, I’m about to die, there’s medicine in that room that can save my life," Zhu Haiyang said, tremblingly pointing at a room without a sign.

Wen Wen narrowed his eyes, pushed his hand away, then went to look through the window of that room, and indeed found a medicine shelf in the corner. However, the shelf was filled with psychiatric drugs.

Then, Wen Wen noticed that the medicine shelf wasn’t placed against the wall, there seemed to be something behind it.

Wen Wen was stunned for a moment, then looked carefully at the entire layout of the room, and murmured, "It seems like my own handiwork... could it be I’ve been here before?"

He stood still for a full minute, then walked over to Zhu Haiyang, now with even more doubts.

"I have a question, how did you know there was medicine in that room?"

"I... I..."

Zhu Haiyang’s eyes flickered, trying to explain, but Wen Wen didn’t give him the chance, simply picked up the naked man, kicked open the door, and threw him inside.

Whether it was the triggering of some mechanism, several ropes instantly bound Zhu Haiyang, then a steel bar pierced through his body, impaling him completely.

While Wen Wen cautiously surveyed the room from the doorway before finally entering with ease.

"What... what are you doing? If I die, it’s on you!"

Zhu Haiyang became furious, and even while impaled, he struggled vigorously, far from the weakness he had previously shown.

"Enough, cut it out, there were too many holes in your story, you must be one of the female nurses," Wen Wen said as he approached him, grabbed his hair, and brutally tore off a large portion of his skin, revealing the blood-soaked, fresh red muscles, just like those of the nurses!

"I don’t understand what’s going on with you all, but it’s probably that after capturing a living person, you skin them, and then replace them, right? The skinned victims become one of you."

"If those nurses maintain that state for too long, they will become dry and even die. Only by finding new skin can you maintain your appearance..."

"The nurse with the most blood on her was the owner of this skin on your body, wasn’t she?"

The flesh nurse stopped her movements, since Wen Wen had already seen through her, any excuse was meaningless.

Wen Wen used the stick to lift her chin and asked, "Now I want to hear the truth, where is this place?"

The nurse smiled eerily and said, "This place is Hell... You are indeed more powerful than we are, but we are just the lowest creatures here. No human can survive in this place, the more powerful you are, the more miserable your death will be..."

Wen Wen raised an eyebrow, "Inner World?"

After wandering around for so long, Wen Wen had also discovered that this place was definitely more than just a space constructed by Supernatural Power.

But the nurse just kept smiling eerily, with no intention of responding to Wen Wen’s question.

Continuing to ask was pointless, Wen Wen suspected she did not know what this place was, so he decided to ask about something he cared about more.

Wen Wen removed the fake beard he used for disguise, wiped off the drawn-on wrinkles, and brought his face close to hers, asking, "Have you seen me in this place before?"

"Ah... Ah..."

The nurse let out a wail like that of a slaughtered pig, looking at Wen Wen in terror and saying, "I didn’t do anything, I don’t know anything!"

She struggled violently, even though the wounds were being enlarged by the rebar without stopping.

Seeing Wen Wen’s real face had already deranged her mentally.

From her reaction, Wen Wen had already gotten the answer he wanted, he had indeed been here before!

But strangely, Wen Wen had no memory of this place. He had indeed been unconscious for a while, but that period of time shouldn’t have been enough to leave such a deep impression on this creature.

"When did you see me, and what was I doing when you saw me?"

Wen Wen continued to press, meanwhile grabbing her shoulder and releasing Cold Qi to prevent her from tearing the wound further and dying from the excessive movements.

"You were... you were..."

She hadn’t finished speaking when black, tadpole-like patterns spread from the wounds, quickly enveloping her entire body.

Then, her body completely collapsed, flesh scattering all over the place!

Wen Wen’s pupils dilated slightly as he stared intently at the piece of rebar.

This rebar was faintly emitting a black luster, those lusters moving like tadpoles...

"There’s poison... or something else on it."

Wen Wen looked warily at the rebar. If he had set the trap, he would never have used such a lethal thing!

He went to the corridor, picked up Zhu Haiyang’s clothes, tore off a piece of fabric, and carefully wrapped it around a section of the rebar, observing for a while to make sure the toxin didn’t seep through before he felt safe handling the rebar.

His sword and some equipment were all left in the Sanctuary, so this poisonous piece of rebar was perfect as a weapon.

After preparing his weapon, Wen Wen pondered, "If it were me, under what circumstances would I use such a good thing to set up this meaningless trap..."

"Unless... I had lost control at the time, and the purpose of setting up this trap was just for fun..."

Wen Wen came up with an answer that scared him a little, but soon he was excited again.

Although there were more questions, it was more challenging, and even more interesting.
