SCP Corporation: Contain Bonfire
Chapter 750 - 750 535 Dont Come Near Me_2

Chapter 750: Chapter 535 “Don’t Come Near Me!”_2 Chapter 750: Chapter 535 “Don’t Come Near Me!”_2 Colin’s expression remained unchanged as he clasped the man’s neck, Bonfire energy surged over his body, burning away that blood-red mist with ease, and he suppressed that power ahead of everyone else.

With the suppression taking effect, all anomalies on the man dissipated at that moment.

“Ah, ah, I don’t want to go back…” the “Psychotic” frantically flailed his limbs, attempting a final struggle.

For some reason Colin thought of, he actually felt the neck in his grasp begin to soften, a viscous secretion appeared, and the man’s entire body began to soften and shrivel as if an invisible shell was forming…

If he did not put a stop to this, it was very likely the man would shrink back into some shell-like thing and become a “snail person.”

“It’s hard to say whether this place is defying the heavens, or if this ‘madman’ himself is defying the heavens.”

Colin clicked his tongue, he probably understood what “Psychotic” meant…

Most likely, it was someone who became mad after coming into contact with some unknowable entities and learning knowledge they shouldn’t have known.

Moreover, given the special nature of this hospital, such a person was extremely dangerous.

However, without dwelling too much on the matter, Colin pinched “Time Reversal” with his left hand, directly reversing time in front of him, returning the “Psychotic” to his state a few seconds prior.

Following that, seizing the opportunity before he turned into a “snail person,” “Bonfire” power completely enveloped him, melting away that mental influence.

He forced the guy who might have been imagining himself shrinking back into a snail, back into his original form.

Gradually, the “Psychotic” stopped struggling, passing out…

“Here comes the problem, how should I draw blood?”

Colin pondered for a moment, it wasn’t that he didn’t know how to draw blood, but it seemed he lacked the proper tools?

But as he thought about it, Colin suddenly gave a self-deprecating chuckle, how could he forget Little Maid?

Right away, he summoned Little Maid, allowing her to transform out syringes and other tools, beginning to extract blood from the man…

Before long, a thousand milliliters of blood were collected, and a confirmation for blood submission to complete the task appeared.

After Colin confirmed, within less than ten seconds from the settlement, he acquired a well-encased syringe of “Madman Blood Extract”…

“Suddenly, I have a feeling this is not particularly good.”

Upon seeing the syringe containing faintly pink transparent extract, Colin fell silent.

He wondered if they were going to make him inject this stuff soon?

At that moment, a new task event appeared…

[Event Two: Take the “Psychotic” to any bed in room 701 on the third floor of the “Psychiatric Ward” on the fourth floor. After setting up protection in the room, with at least one employee, descend through dreams to the ‘Non-existent Hospital’ seventh floor and return to the ‘Outpatient Department’ lobby, observing the regulations…]

“Note”: During the dream state, certain high-risk memories will be treated, please do not panic.

…

“Phew, lucky, I don’t have to inject it, but… descending through dreams to… straight to the seventh floor?”

Upon scanning the contents of the task, Colin was taken aback, not expecting “Lady Rabbit” to provide a method to skip floors so quickly.

In doing do…

The two employees he paid for had been hired for no reason?

“That’s not right, it can’t be considered a waste, after all, they played some role on the earlier floors, avoiding many pitfalls, and later on, when I bring them up to the higher floors, they should be more familiar than those who are here for the first time.”

Without dwelling too much, Colin glanced again at the “Psychotic” lying on the stairs with a tranquil face.

He became somewhat curious about where this guy had come from?

According to “Innate Ashen Holy Body” and “Orange Cat,” it seemed that this “Infinite Staircase” shouldn’t have had this guy in it…

Besides, although this guy had issues, his whole body was contaminated, and he was mentally deranged, he was indeed human…

Amidst his doubts, Colin couldn’t help but recall some of the things the guy had been madly shouting earlier.

“He seemed to have said he hadn’t helped someone? Who is that referring to? And who is after him?”

After thinking it over, Colin guessed that it might have something to do with the later floors, potentially with some anomalies, or maybe even heretics…

Unfortunately, he didn’t have enough information at present.

At this moment, noticing the man’s pallid and listless complexion due to the blood drawn, to prevent him from possibly dying on the spot, Colin considerately injected a “Colorless Crystal” to sustain his body without issues.

After finishing all that, Colin quickly returned and met the two people waiting above a few minutes later.

“Did you just go down there?” Colin asked.

He had chased downstairs for more than half an hour, but going back up, it only took a few minutes, which was obviously not right.

“No.” The two shook their heads simultaneously.

“You must have wanted me to come back quickly, right?”

“Uh…a little.” Orange Cat said, somewhat embarrassed.

‘It seems that because they wanted me back, some kind of “mutual rush” was actualized.’

Colin roughly understood the reason.

This haunted hospital was not only “believe and it exists, doubt and it does not,” but even the people who entered it were affected by this situation.

“Is this anomaly a deep-seated contamination leak, or is the ‘hospital’ itself just like this, only becoming out of control because the ‘Bonfire Company’ has weakened?”

Colin couldn’t help but be curious, but remembering the peculiar nature of this place, he quickly reined in his thoughts.

Avoid bringing forth something that shouldn’t appear because of reckless “imagination”…

Before long, the group exited the Infinite Staircase on the fourth floor…

After coming out, they were still in the hospital ward, but now on the fourth floor.

At this moment, despite the lights being on, the ambiance was darker, and the air carried a strong stench of a mix between formaldehyde and rotting corpses.

And faintly, from somewhere, screams of women and men could be heard…

Colin’s gaze turned to the “patches” densely spread all around, which were no longer purely black but had a dark red hue, and from them some tumor-like things twitched and writhed.

If there had been just one or two, it wouldn’t be much, but they were everywhere.

He had the feeling that the building was on the verge of coming to life…

“No, an illusion! It can’t come to life!”

Colin quickly stopped his dangerous train of thought, just in case it really did come to life, which would be more than troublesome.

The two employees by his side, upon those thoughts, became “moved by the scene” and their originally fuzzy memories became clear all at once:

“The patches on the ground are still the same; don’t touch them, and you’ll be fine. Besides that, there might be some human figures, but they’re not common now. Also, don’t pay attention to those screams; the more you focus on it, the closer it gets, and eventually a ghost-like creature will cling onto you. You can’t kill it, and it’s particularly frightening, but it’s manageable, just shift your attention elsewhere…”

Orange Cat quickly spoke out what was on his mind.

“Yeah, that’s more or less it; apart from that, there are some rooms with people that you can’t enter, and that’s about it,” said the Innate Ashen Holy Body, after finishing his sentence.

“The way to go down to the next floor is to find an abnormal ‘nurse’ dressed in pink, tell her we are seriously ill, with a very severe disease, and let her take us to a certain floor. Follow for a while and naturally we will go deeper into it…”

Find a nurse? This method seems different from “Lady Rabbit’s” suggestion… Colin raised his hand to interrupt him:

“No need, I have another method that can take us directly to the seventh floor.”

Compared to their “primitive ways,” Colin trusted the method given by “Lady Rabbit” more.

Then, without waiting for the two to ask, Colin continued, “Do you know where the ‘Psychiatric Ward’ is?”

“The Psychiatric Ward?!”

One of the employees’ expressions changed drastically upon hearing that name.

“What? Is there a problem?” Colin looked over curiously, not understanding why the reaction was so strong.

The employee opened his mouth as if to say something but found nothing other than fear in his recollection.

“There shouldn’t be a problem on the fourth floor, but it’s hard to say about the levels beyond; anyway, it’s very dangerous. I think we had an incident over there from our previous exploration…” The employee, filled with aversion, mentioned that place.

“It should be fine, do you know where it is?”

“I do.”

“Then let’s go there.”

Colin decisively made the decision, leaving no room for refusal.
