Chapter 1145 – Two Fierce Gods
”Friends?” Eat Ren looked at Chen Ge, then his gaze moved uncontrollably to the two red clothes, cold sweat slid down his forehead, “I …… am not qualified to be friends with you guys, we are people of two worlds.”
”All brothers within the four seas, I can get to where I am today by having many friends, you are Dr. Fang’s friend, I am also Dr. Fang’s friend, we have the same goal and the same friends, that’s enough.” Chen Ge was too lazy to talk nonsense on this issue, “Don’t waste time, tell us everything you know about Dr. Fang now.”
”You can’t save him, he’s already been chosen.” Eatenren shook his head, “It’s true that you’re very powerful when you can order the Red Clothes, but you’re still far from them.”
”They mean?”
”A hospital, Dr. Fang is the one who was chosen by that hospital, they want Dr. Fang to become their day shift doctor there, I’m not sure of the exact reason, it seems like it’s because a lot of doctors have disappeared from that hospital lately, and there’s a shortage of manpower right now.” Eating Jen’s words surprised Chen Ge, these extremely secretive things, Eating Jen actually knew all of them.
”What is your relationship with that hospital? Don’t worry, no one can hear what you say here except us.” In order to ensure Eating Jen’s safety, Chen Ge even released his red high heels.
”I can’t say it, if these things are said, I might die immediately.” Eat Ren unzipped the opening of his shirt, there was a deep black blood vessel there in his heart, it was as if a thin black line was embedded in his flesh: “All those who are related to that hospital will be cursed, and when the curse is triggered, this black blood vessel will grow and grow, and finally take root into the brain.”
”What will happen if the curse is broken?” Chen Ge stared at the black blood vessel, and there seemed to be a crying sound coming out from amongst the veins.
”No one can break the curse, not even the most powerful Redcoat.” Eatren shook his head.
Almost as soon as his words fell, the temperature of the entire room suddenly dropped so much, and a bandaged hand pressed onto his chest.
The black vein faded in color and stopped growing.
”You’re right, it’s true that no one can break this curse, but this friend of mine can make it temporarily ineffective and it won’t attract the attention of the person who cast the spell.”
The temperature in the room slowly rose, and Eatren was dumbfounded in place, the hand that had just appeared on his chest seemed like an illusion.
”Now you can feel free to speak boldly.” Chen Ge signaled for Eat Ren to continue.
After hesitating for a moment, Eat Ren took a deep breath as if he was plugging his life, and said in a very hurried tone, “There is a monster in that hospital that all the red coats are afraid of, it also has the surname Eat, and the curses on us are all related to it.”
After saying the first sentence, Eaten’s face turned pale, and he looked dead at the black vein in his chest.
After waiting for half a day, there was no mutation in that blood vessel.
”The curse has been suppressed!” Eat Ren obviously felt much more relaxed, as if the time bomb that had been installed on his body had been defused.
Wiping away the cold sweat on his face, Eat Ren’s tone slowly returned to normal: “The living people in the cursed hospital are divided into four categories: patients with numbers other than one hundred, the day shift doctors, people surnamed Eat, and No Smile, of which No Smile is the dean’s flesh and blood closest relative, and people surnamed Eat are the family members made by that monster.”
The information that Eatren revealed to Chen Ge was very important, excluding the Thousand-faced Fierce God that was swallowed by Zhang Ya, there were at least two other Fierce Gods in the cursed hospital.
One was the dean and the other was surnamed Eat.
”Are you family members who were made?” Chen Ge used his Yin pupil to survey Eat Ren, this was a very ordinary uncle, there was nothing attractive about him, Chen Ge couldn’t figure out why the Fierce God would fancy him.
”It started fifteen years ago, when I first came to live in Xinhai, I was young and bold, and my relatives who lived in Xinhai found me a job guarding the morgue. It wasn’t tiring, just more night shifts.” Eatenren talked about his past.
”I didn’t go to school and I’m not particularly good at anything, so I was happy that my relatives were willing to introduce me to a job, and besides, the salary was paid a lot.”
”The hospital leadership told me to inspect three times a day at twelve o’clock in the evening, one o’clock in the morning, and two o’clock in the morning, focusing on checking the several doors on the lowest level of the morgue, and once I found the door locks to be loose, no matter how late it was immediately report to him.”
”But if you think about it, who would run into the morgue to pick the locks at night? This is a morgue, nothing valuable, just corpses, what thief with a donkey’s brain would come to this place to steal?”
”I thought it was strange, but I didn’t dare ask. Everything was normal for the first week.”
”There were no cell phones at that time, and it was boring to be on duty alone. Plus it was very cool in the morgue at night, not even a mosquito, so I thought of a lazy way to do it.”
”Just one inspection a day, then I hid inside and slept, it was especially cool in that room, just like turning on the air conditioner, sometimes I had to cover myself with a blanket.”
”It was about two weeks later that I started having nightmares, the kind that are very real.”
”I dreamed that when I fell asleep, there was a circle of people standing around my bed watching me; I also dreamed that I was being pushed into an incinerator as a corpse; these dreams were fine until the third week, when I dreamed about a child.”
”The child had no eyes or nose on his face, just a mouth, and he stood by my bedside and asked me to tell him a story.”
”I was scared, but I didn’t dare to refuse, so I told him about the strange things that happened in my old village.”
”He seemed to be addicted to hearing it, and it appeared in my dreams every day, and then I really ran out of stories, and that child with only one mouth still wasn’t ready to let me go.”
”Not only did he show up in my dreams, he started showing up in reality too.”
”I was at the end of my rope and completely broken when a monster whose entire face was taken up by a mouth appeared, holding that child.”
”He asked me if I would like to become his family, and I didn’t dare to refuse.” Eatenren’s expression was pained, “It seemed like he had been searching for his family, but didn’t find them.”
”After becoming that monster’s family, he left, and then I found a black vein growing from my heart, and I had to do something as he asked. No matter how unwilling, if I went against his wishes, I would die.”
Eat Ren finished his experience and then looked at Chen Ge, “You’re still the first person I’ve met that has the ability to suppress his curse.”
It was very difficult to suppress the Fierce God’s curse, and the red high heels possessed an extremely rare curse-related talent, plus she had swallowed and inherited everything from the Fierce God’s Plutonic Fetus, and was already a top-tier Red Clothes herself.
At the same time, she fulfilled all kinds of harsh conditions, which was why she was able to suppress the curse of the monster with the surname Eat.
”How is the relationship between that monster surnamed Eat and the dean?” Chen Ge wanted to try to see if he could divide them, after all, Zhang Ya could only hold back one Fierce God, and the other Fierce God could completely take advantage of this time to abuse all the haunted house employees.
”It’s very good, sometimes people even think that they are like one person.” With the curse under control, Eatren slowly grew bold, these words had been held in his heart for too long, and now he was finally able to say them.
”Everyone?”
”I’m not the only one with the surname Eaten in Xinhai, the owner of Ten Mile Xiang also has the surname Eaten, all of us are victims of the cursed hospital, we can only live under the shadow of the curse for the rest of our lives, not daring to spit out any of our secrets, and still have to satisfy some of their demands.” Eat Ren’s teeth were clenched, he seemed to have thought of something very painful, “Some of those demands were very excessive, the owner of Ten Mile Xiang had been punished for one thing, and then forced to eat a kind of meat. There was also a man who entered the hospital in search of his daughter, but in the end, not only did he fail to find his daughter, he also had his memories modified and became a pitiful puppet.”
With bruises popping out on his cheeks, Eatren was remorseful, “Yes, we are all monsters.”
”As long as you retain your humanity, you are still human.” Chen Ge comforted Eat Ren while he was thinking about something else in his mind.
The Dean and the Fierce God of Eating Surname were very close, just like one person, and it was very difficult to divide them, so if Chen Ge wanted to fight against them, he would have to get the help of the two Fierce Gods to do so.
And that’s just having the qualifications for a head-on confrontation, the Cursed Hospital existed twenty years ago, and how many Fierce Gods they have, no one can even say.
Even a relatively peripheral victim like Eaten Ren knew that two Fierce Gods existed, so the actual number of Fierce Gods in the Cursed Hospital would probably be even more than Chen Ge had previously expected.
”Zhang Ya is a Fierce God, Red Heels is a Top Redcoat, and Boo was also able to exert the strength of a Top Redcoat in Liwan Town, but the world behind the doors of the others is still a bit short of a Top Redcoat.” These three were the top combatants of Chen Ge’s House of Horrors, and Red High Heels and Boo were also the red clothes that were most likely to become Fierce Gods in a short period of time.
”The difference in strength is too great, it’s still necessary to borrow strength.” Three names surfaced in Chen Ge’s mind-Dr. Gao, Painter, and Chang Wenyu.
”Dr. Gao destroyed the door to the Living Coffin Village, and he can move freely in the Scarlet City, so he might have become a Fierce God. The relationship between him and I is very complicated, belonging to the same Weird Tales Association, and with Ruxue Gao’s affection in place, I should be able to convince him.”
”The painter himself possesses a strength close to that of a Fierce God, and is followed by a number of Red Clothes, because of Fan Yu, he and I are not considered enemies.”
”Although Chang Wenyu has utilized me, she is now relying on me to repair her obsession, and of the three ‘people’, she is instead the easiest to become my friend.”
Chen Ge knew that it would be difficult to pose a threat to the Cursed Hospital with his own power alone, so he decided to contact all forces.
”Thinking about it this way, I still have a chance of winning.”
After communicating with Eat Ren, Chen Ge decided to settle the matter of Chang Wenyu today, and it would be beneficial for him to help Chang Wenyu recover as soon as possible.
”With the current power comparison, if the Cursed Hospital comes to hunt me with all its might, I’m not really sure I can escape.”
Many of the employees of the House of Horrors were in red, but he, Chen Ge, was just an ordinary person, and it was really too easy for that hospital to kill an ordinary person.
”That’s why the plans are all going ahead, we can’t give that hospital more time.” Chen Ge redirected his attention to Eat Ren, “During the time you’ve been a family member of the monster with the surname Eat, have you ever encountered any doctors or patients who have gone out?”
”There have been.”
”Going out on a mission will definitely encounter danger, is it possible that they could have asked you for help? After all, you guys are considered to be related to the Cursed Hospital, and you all carry curses on your bodies.” Chen Ge patiently inquired.
”We ordinary people with the Eaten surname scattered in the corners of the city are the hospital’s pawns one by one, no matter if we’re patients, or doctors, as long as they sense the curse on our bodies, they’ll ask us to do something, and we’ll usually agree to do it unconditionally.” Eatren had a bitter face, “We are not qualified to refuse.”
”That means that people with the surname Eatren belong to the lowest class of status in the hospital?” Chen Ge developed a bold idea.
”You could say that.”
”You stay in this house for now, and I can assure you that as long as you don’t leave this house, you won’t be in danger.” Chen Ge hadn’t slept all night, but he wasn’t sleepy at all now, and his eyes were filled with excitement.
”Are you leaving? By the way, I still don’t know what to call you?” Eat Ren was still in a daze, the Cursed Hospital and Chen Ge were both existences he couldn’t afford to offend, and in comparison, Chen Ge seemed a bit more reliable and cordial.
”There’s cooked food and beer on the table that I bought yesterday, the bathroom is next door, so sleep well if you’re sleepy, and don’t leave the building until I come back.” Chen Ge left the two red clothes behind as he ran to a certain scene on the first floor to summon Little Sun out.
”How’s the learning going?” Chen Ge looked at Little Sun with anticipation.
”I was really not expecting that I was dead and had to receive a filler education ……,” Xiao Sun felt as if he had lost a lot of weight, and his body was also transparent: “What I should have learned, what I should have memorized, and now it’s the 101st Patient Resurrection is also not as much as I play like.”
”Very well, prepare yourself, I’ll send you to the Cursed Hospital in the next few days.”
”So soon?” Xiao Sun’s face turned white instantly.
”You listen to my plan first.”
Chen Ge prepared to use the surname eater to send Little Sun to the Cursed Hospital, he first communicated with Little Sun and then took Little Sun out to step on the spot.
After spending a morning, they locked on to an Eater of Fame in the suburbs of Xinhai.
”Let’s familiarize ourselves with the environment first, then we’ll make our move tonight.”
When Chen Ge returned to Nightmare Academy after 1:00 pm, he found that Zhang Jingjiu and Qu Changlin had already arrived.
”From now on, Zhang Jingjiu will be the acting store manager, Qu Changlin will be the chief designer of props and scenes, and you, Xiaodie, will be the foreman.” There were a total of three living employees in the haunted house, and Chen Ge assigned each of them awesome-sounding jobs, “Everyone, let’s organize the useless props and old scenes in the haunted house first, and we’ll see what happens three days later when we start business.”
After assigning the jobs, Chen Ge asked Xiao Die some more about her brother, then he rushed to Xinhai First High School with his backpack.
The Xinhai No. 1 High School that Xiao Die’s brother attended happened to also be the school where Chang Wenyu’s residual soul host was located.
