Chapter 329 Ontology
Cables of hardened nerves are strung over the city,

A panoramic cable car was departing from the Grand Theater, carrying Rody and David to a distant restoration center.

The cable car is suspended a hundred meters in the air, but the bottom is not a town street, but a bottomless hell rift.

In other words, in this synaptic city, the capital of the evil play, there is no concept of “streets”. It is a special city composed only of important buildings.

The evil play deliberately chose a location and built the city in the Hell Rift Zone.

Each important building is isolated on a towering rock peak.
All transfers rely on “neural cables” installed on the top of the building.

Insects will not waste time on the streets, especially things like shopping are what they hate the most.

Either work in important buildings,

Or leave the city and do something else.

Judging from this city structure, Rody became more and more interested in pranks, because he himself did not like to waste time on unimportant things, and efficiency came first.

The curtain on David’s eye socket opened again, and the tiny arm inside actually took out an arrow sign, pointing precisely to a certain location in the city.

“We’ll be at the repair center soon. This is the most important medical structure in our play. Most of those who can receive medical services here are above the level of demon upgrade.

Naturally, strict security measures are implemented inside.

Stay with me later, we can only go to your ward floor for now.”

“it is good.”

Luo Di looked in the direction of the arrow sign.

The so-called repair center was also built alone on a solitary rock protruding from the Hell Rift, and its altitude was lower than other surrounding buildings.

The building itself does not have any strange style. It is just a square building with more than 40 floors high.

All cable car lines converge on the rooftop of the hospital, and all visitors will land on the rooftop.

What is strange is that although there are more than ten elevators on the rooftop, there is no security, and it seems that anyone who comes can enter the hospital at will.

However, Rody’s idea was soon shattered.

When he followed David into one of the elevators, he knew the first reason why there was no need to set up security.

There are no metal buttons in the car, and the operating panel is just a smooth brain protruding outward.

When David touched it with his palm, his brain immediately verified the identity of the passenger and connected his thoughts to the hospital center.

The hospital will open corresponding elevator permissions based on the identity of the visitor.

Just tell the elevator which floor you want to go to, and the elevator brain will receive it.

Once it is determined that the rider is eligible to go to that floor, the elevator will start to operate.

The destination they were about to go to was the [Intensive Care Unit (E)] where Rody’s real body was located. It was a high-level area of ​​the hospital and few people had direct access.

The elevator moves.

Luo Di unexpectedly discovered that the energy that supports the operation of the elevator is indeed electricity, including the previous cable car, which is also powered by electricity. However, the electricity here is quite different from that in the human world.

The bioelectricity that circulates throughout the city comes from the brain.
Earlier, Rody had seen a special building area filled with brains while on the cable car. All the neural pathways carrying electrical energy radiated from there.

Ding!
≮We have arrived at the Intensive Care Unit (E). Please proceed to the nurses’ desk to register.≯
The elevator door opens.

There is only one red carpeted corridor outside, with long white lights on the top. There is no peculiar smell in the air, and it feels like being in a sterile space.

There is only one ward on this floor, which is located at the end of the corridor. If you go past the elevator, you will inevitably pass by the nurses’ station.

When Luo Di arrived at the nurses’ station, he also learned the second reason why this hospital did not need security.

The nurses here are very different from those in the human world.

They were “piled and hung” in the nurses’ station, some were resting with their eyes closed, while others had their eyes open and were staring at the visitors who came here.

They have no bodies, but heads, about fifty or sixty in number, glued together to form a spherical structure.

They are suspended in the air by thick nerves that descend from the top.

Rody couldn’t tell whether it was a whole or each head was an independent individual.

One of the young nurse heads smiled and said, “Good evening, Mr. David! Please register your visit information.”

After David Dai wrote down the information that he needed to check Roddy’s real body in the intensive care unit, and might even need to touch the real body.

Gajigaji~
Deep within the cluster of heads, something began to wriggle and crawl out.

Crash~ As a large amount of cerebrospinal fluid poured out to the ground,
The most senior head nurse here was separated from the others.
When the head nurse’s head fell off, nerve structures immediately grew out from her neck area, quickly constructing a pure white body. It looked like she was wearing clothes, but also like she wasn’t wearing any.

There were IV tubes all over her eye sockets, and syringes replaced teeth between her open lips, which was enough to show her professionalism.

“Mr. David, there are still 74% of the ancestral residues in the patient Rody’s body, and he is currently in the early stages of restoration. This floor and his ward are both in level lockdown, and the restoration center does not recommend any contact now.

Moreover, if we allow Mr. Luo Di’s temporary consciousness carrier to approach the main body now, it may affect the subsequent repair work.”

David waved his hand, “Special situation, special treatment. If it was any other person of the same level, Rody’s injuries would have killed him long ago. The fact that he’s still alive is because the ancestors wanted him to live.

There might be unexpected benefits to letting the “doppelganger” who has obtained the drama brain meet the original person in advance.

I will be responsible for any problems that arise.”

“Please Mr. David sign the letter of responsibility here.”

When David signed, Rody, who was standing by, felt very uncomfortable. They were clearly discussing matters concerning his body, but the decision was made by the hospital and David.

The head nurse put away the responsibility letter and walked in front of the passage to lead the way. “Please put on protective clothing before entering the intensive care unit. The ancestral residues on the patients may affect the surrounding environment.”

In front of the ward.

Luo Di, who was changing into protective clothing, suddenly felt someone was watching him from behind.

Turning around, I saw that the cluster of heads that were previously hanging in the nurses’ station were actually moving short distances via the nerves that came down from the ceiling.

At this moment, the head cluster arrived at the corridor. All the nurses opened their eyes and looked over here… and a sense of vigilance could be seen between their eye sockets which were filled with infusion tubes.

This scene made Luo Di wonder: “Are all the nurses on this floor only responsible for repairing my body?”

The head nurse responded immediately:
“It’s not just the repair work, all patients who have been injured by their ancestors are at potential risk, they may experience ‘reversion’ during the repair process and become a kind of ancestral creature.

Once this happens, it will be very dangerous for the entire hospital.

Because our nursing team will also be responsible for the killing work. Once your body undergoes a reversion mutation, we will completely erase it.

However, your original body has not shown any tendency to regress since it was sent to the ward, and all the monitoring indexes are currently above the safe value, so you can rest assured.”

“Ok.”

Luo Di also understood why the medical expenses here were so high.

When he followed the head nurse into the ward and saw the scene inside the intensive care unit, he even felt that the money was well spent.

“I’m actually injured to this extent?!”

In the intensive care unit,

Dense nerves suspended Rodina’s broken body in the air, and each nerve was connected to an important part of the body.

Monitors the physiological conditions of every part of the body and maintains the most basic life characteristics.

Even the most important metal spine had suffered extensive erosion, with parts turning black and having corrosion grooves of varying depths.

The skull was basically penetrated, and the brain, especially the most important pituitary structure, was protected only by the extra built-in skull.

The lower body is completely gone.
Only a few strips of flesh and blood remained on the right arm.

The left arm was just a bone covered with rotten flesh.

current,

The nerves connecting the entire body are absorbing the ancestral residues bit by bit. Once these nerves are absorbed by the ancestral residues, the entire nerve will be discarded and sent to the incinerator to be burned.

Rody stared at his almost unrecognizable body.

Suddenly, something strange happened.

Body face,

The right eye that had accidentally survived suddenly turned to the side, and its gray pupils stared at Rody who came in from the door.

The two looked at each other.
The gray association between the pituitary glands is quickly established.
For a moment, Rody could clearly feel the current state of the body and could feel some kind of demand from the body.

“Wait! Can you suspend all medical services and return all the ancestral residues extracted previously to me?”

When Rody made this request,

Both the head nurse and David looked at him strangely.
