Eyeball
The Fifth Hospital is now the largest Mental Hospital in Pluto City, and four more buildings are currently under construction for expansion.
There have even been people from the World Bureau who have met with the Dean and expressed their willingness to let him establish a branch in the capital, without having to worry about any funding issues.
certainly,
The proposal was politely rejected by the dean. Neither the dean nor Hawke wanted to leave the Fifth Hospital, at least not until the constraints of the World Anchor Point were broken.
Dean's Office
Luo Di no longer communicated with the dean one-on-one as before, but instead faced three opponents.
The dean sat at his desk.
The young man with glasses stood in front of the bookshelf, flipping through a book about vision medicine.
The fat, greasy outsourced doctor took off his shoes, sat on the sofa, picked at his toes while eating potato chips, and even had a large pile of wasabi-flavored potato chips next to the sofa.
This scene looks very strange.
But as long as these three people are present, the Fifth Hospital, and even Pluto City, can be said to be the safest place in the country outside of the capital.
After some conversation, Hawke also learned about the so-called Corner Experience.
"... So that's how it is."
It's really unreasonable for a monster from a deeper level to come looking for trouble in Corner shallow layer. It's a pity we can't leave for now, otherwise we could also do something unreasonable to it.
Based on your description, the other party's abilities have violated the "rules".
Simply by 'observing', you can shift your consciousness to await death amidst a severed head.
Furthermore, if you experience even the slightest fear during your contact with the monster, a fleshy egg-like structure resembling a balloon Guild Leader inside your body.
A very dangerous monster, and it hasn't even used its full strength yet.
If you want to kill this monster, you will have to go to his lair, and with your current level, Luo Di, you are far from being able to do so.
Such a monster would be considered a Great Demon even in Hell, and an extremely rare existence.
Luo Di responded frankly, "I know my abilities are not yet sufficient, so I will formulate a plan after the door is opened."
Hawke gently fiddled with the hooked earring pendant with his fingers. "Now that thing has locked onto you, it will come looking for you once you head to the corner, right? Your subsequent exploration of the corner will be extremely risky."
"Mr. Hook, there's no need to worry. The Investigation Bureau will definitely be paying attention to this matter."
Hawke shook his finger. "It's cowardly and pathetic to entrust your safety to others. If you can't even guarantee your own safety, you might as well go back to hell and wait for the gates to open before returning."
You have many options for opening the door; you don't necessarily have to choose the current one.
Hawke's words carried a coercive tone, and it even felt like hooks were poking into Luo Di's ear.
He was well aware of the severity of Luo Di's injuries and the danger involved. If he encountered such a monster again in a corner, escaping unscathed would be virtually impossible.
Snap!
Oculos, who was reading, suddenly closed his book. "Hawk, why are you being so forceful? Since Luo Di's Gate of Demon Ascension has been confirmed and we need to use their resources, let him go."
Since he can avoid danger once, he can avoid it a second time.
As for anything targeting you, while we can't directly help, we can offer some indirect assistance.
Luo Di turned to look at Oculos, who was speaking up for him, and said, "I've reached saturation in both the Corner System and the Hell System, and I can't continue to improve my strength before the gate opens."
"Simple... Luo Di, didn't you just say that the main danger of this guy lies in 'observation'? You and your partner were forced to separate because you couldn't detect the monster's existence, and you almost died because of observation."
Don't rely on that strange tongue for now; you need to improve your own perception.
Of course, it's impossible to achieve a major visual breakthrough in a short period of time. However, I can give you something faster.
Hawke frowned upon hearing this. "Hey! Don't splatter your eyeballs everywhere. Not everyone can handle your eyeballs... Luo Di's self-structure is already perfect. Stuffing your eyeballs in will damage his spinal system and affect his development."
"Who said I was going to shove my eyeballs into his mouth?"
Oculus pushed up his glasses, and then, as if by Sleight of Hand, conjured a tiny, black eyeball the size of a soybean in his palm.
In stark contrast to his own eyes, which were steaming and gleaming with burnt-spot luster.
This eyeball has no temperature and is not the size of a human eye.
"During the time I spent in the Hell's Dark Side, I managed to rub out an eyeball, which should be able to be grafted into your raven colt."
The crow has changed somewhat after spending time with you; it has become very adaptable and should be able to accept you.
This eyeball might help you spot danger in advance, detect the traces left by the monster, and avoid falling into danger unknowingly.
"As long as we can detect danger in advance, I believe that with your skills and the help of your teammates, you can at least protect yourself, right?"
"Thank you, Lord Eye."
The crow, which had been protected within its body, had already sensed the dark side of the eyeball and flew over to it when Luo Di lifted his clothes.
Instead of removing the crow's original eyeballs, they directly embedded the balloon eyeballs into the crow's forehead.
After all, it was an eyeball created by the Lord Eye, and its level and rank were far superior to those of Hell Creature like the Crow Colt. The Crow Colt, which had just been lively and jumping around, convulsed and instantly died.
Luo Di quickly stepped forward and took the body.
Gray tentacles emerged from the fingertips and burrowed into the crow's body to massage its heart.
He could also feel that the eyeball was frantically draining the crow's life force, while at the same time forming an internal whole.
Luo Di needs to do is input an equal amount of life force.
Slowly, the raven's heart resumed beating, and its wings began to move again. But Luo Di noticed a problem, a very strange situation.
The eye inside the crow's body is not just a simple prosthetic eye implant; it's more like a Hell Object, something akin to a spine.
The crow has become centered around this eyeball, and can even grow by using it, just like the Devil from hell.
Oculos explained simply, "If you observe anything unusual during subsequent corner explorations, the crow should alert you, and you can share the view through your connection."
Furthermore, Luo Di, your raven colt has become unlike any other Hell Creature. I can sense it's being influenced by the corner, and unexpected changes may occur later.
"Okay, thank you, seniors! Is there anything I can help you with?"
"Yes... David was called here this time because Luo Di happens to be here too."
Five minutes later.
The main entrance of the Fifth Hospital.
Luo Di, the dean, and two doctors arrived here.
"Quickly open the automatic door completely."
"Yes, Dean!"
The security guard, who was slacking off and watching TV, was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. He quickly pressed the switch and secretly prayed that he wouldn't lose his job because of this.
But what happened next was beyond his comprehension as a security guard.
The hospital director and two new doctors were holding hands, standing right on the line where the automatic door was retracting.
Luo Di stood alone outside.
Following that, Luo Di also reached out and gently pulled the three people inside, moving them slowly and cautiously outwards.
When the three of them had completely stepped out of the hospital gate,
"Good!"
The dean roared, his body trembling slightly, extremely excited.
Following that, the three of them continued walking forward under Luo Di's guidance. Every step they took seemed to be under tremendous pressure, and they had to pause for a while every three steps.
The security guard rubbed his eyes, seemingly catching a glimpse of something strange.
He seemed to see the doctor, with his pointed head and protruding belly, who appeared to have no eyes, but instead had two hands growing out of his eye sockets.
The two slender arms also gripped Luo Di, and the surrounding space was subtly disturbed.
They stopped after walking about a hundred meters, as if they had reached the limit of what they could do. Both the dean and the doctor were covered in sweat.
Without Luo Di leading them, the three cautiously returned to the courtyard.
As if they had achieved an important goal, the three of them gave each other a high five to celebrate, while also noticing the security guards' prying eyes.
Immediately afterwards, the young doctor with glasses suddenly gave him a look.
The security guard felt a burst of light, and his eyes were filled with addictive short videos. It seemed as if something had just happened, and there was nothing outside anymore.
