Chapter 133 The final choice
In front of the hospital gate.
Chen Qiang gave Xiaoxue a brief hug.
"Look!" Xiaoxue pointed at the hospital building in surprise.
In Kadu at dusk, the sky was covered with clouds and most rooms in the hospital were on lights in advance.
But just now... all the lights completely went out in an instant.
There was a dead silence.
...
In the cinema, Su Yingliu and Qin Yixian were discussing in a low voice.
"Only by offering a part of your body to the unnamed person can you avoid death," Qin Yixian asked, "Uncle Su, what would you do?"
"I will cut off my little finger," Su Yingliu said expressionlessly. "I can still bear the price of a little finger."
This tough and old agent has faced countless desperate situations. In order to save his teammates and his own lives, he doesn't mind making sacrifices.
"Do you understand the 'part of the body' in this way..." Qin Yixian sneered twice.
Return the yellow seal and part of the body to the guardian—
...
Sesinlu grabbed the jade pendant in her hand.
Sinking into the dark hospital corridor, silent. Someone was shouting "There is a power outage!" across several corridors, but the sound was like coming from a distance.
It must be as soon as possible - otherwise, you will be in danger when you meet Uncle Xia and even other patients...!
【Sesilu Listening Check Success 12/26】
Even though the sound was almost inaudible, Sessilu still heard it. As he approached, the footsteps of the pursuers were getting closer and closer.
Sesinlu held a military flashlight in one hand and a pendant in the other.
"bring it on……"
Then she saw it.
A burly man in a shabby gray coat and pale face, like a worm, appeared at the end of the corridor. His steps seemed to be staggering, but he had approached in a few breaths, and Sessil could smell a disgusting stinking corpse on him.
Under the light of the flashlight, Sesinlu saw the other person's face clearly. His emerald-colored eyes were deeply trapped in the thick, scaled flesh, and his limbs were twisted, like an octopus' appendage, and his whole body was like a distorted caricature.

【Sesi Lu Reason Check 38/70 Success, Current Reason 69】
【Cessilu Cthulhu Mythical Check Failed 66/10】
"cut."
Sessilu didn't know and didn't care whether it was a monster transformed into a "covenant" between humans and old dominators, or a creature traveling from a distant planet to the earth.
But even though I handed over the pendant without any resistance, I was still a little unwilling to accept it.
【Sesi Lu Pistol Shooting Check 15/45 Success】
The monster has no intention of dodging.
The bullet penetrated straight through the monster's body.
I saw that the monster's half-liquid body stagnated for a while, and then continued to move forward as if nothing had happened.
"...It turns out that bullets are useless. If it is Xiaoxue, you will find a way to ambush things with liquid nitrogen. Forget it, it's not my style to be slaughtered."
She pulled out her Gurkha recurve knife.
"Do you want this thing?" She shook the jade pendant in her hand.
The monster let out a twisted howl and rushed towards Sessian.
[Hasta's Contractor Arm Flail 78/85 Success]
【Sesilu Fighting Blocking Check 22/92 Successful】
The monster waved its tentacle-like arm, but the sharp-eyed Sessilu cut off the tip with a saber. The huge force made Sessilu's right hand hurt severely, but she still barely rolled and flashed to another direction. The monster's fluid touching limbs hit the concrete floor, leaving a shallow dent, and the damaged part was quickly repaired at a speed visible to the naked eye.
What a terrifying power, Sesinlu thought. Without more powerful weapons, the human flesh and blood body wants to stop this creature is like a mantis armed in a car. Even under heavy protection, the illusion that appears and disappears from time to time still gives the monster a chance to take away the lives of the victim.
If you face this monster alone... No, if it was your past self, you would either fight to the death to the end, or you would just hand over one of your arms like the young man in the report.
Thinking of this, Sai Shi really gestured on her upper arm with a reversal knife.
But now it's different, Saisi thought.
I have to protect Uncle Yoo Xia, as well as Chen Qiang and Xiaoxue.
Just let yourself bet on your life to complete this experiment!
The Russian girl raised the Gurkha knife in her hand high, and instead of looking towards her arms or fingers, she tied up a strand of her hair and waved it decisively.
A piece of brown hair broke in Sesinlu's hand. She took out another short black hair from her pocket, which belonged to Uncle Ye Xia.
"Ah. That's all."
"Hasta's contractor" stayed there without moving. It just watched Sessilu's movements quietly.
"Give it back to you," Saixi tangled two pieces of hair and the jade pendant and threw it to the contractor, "There are more."
"Sai Qian!" In the distance, Chen Qiang and Qin Lingxue, who were pushing a trolley, were rushing to come.

[Chen Qiang's rational check failed 79/42, 1d8=7]
[The cumulative sanity lost by investigator "Chen Qiang" in the past has been 4 points. The maximum loss of rationality value caused by "Chen Qiang" is 8. Chen Qiang is used to this fear and will not lose more than 4 points of rationality value due to "Chen Qiang". Currently, rationality is 40]
[Chen Qiang's current rationality 38]
[Qin Lingxue's sanity check failed 82/29, 1d8=8]
[The Investigator "Qin Lingxue" lost sanity because of "Hasta's Contractor" in the past was 1 point. The maximum loss of rational value caused by "Hasta's Contractor" was 8. Qin Lingxue was used to this fear and would not lose more than 7 points of rational value because of "Hasta's Contractor". Currently, rational value is 22]
【Qin Lingxue's current rationality 22】
"It was the kind of monster that Wei Yuanshan became at that time." Qin Lingxue whispered. She recalled the fearful memories brought by "The King of Yellow Clothes in the Board Game Club" a few months ago, and couldn't help but kneel on one knee and retching.
"You ran away directly at that time," Chen Qiang said, "but I still came up with a solution. Hey, can't I be super swim when I say that?"
Could it be that this "Hasta's Contractor" has become a monster for too long and can no longer understand human words?
"Oh, you just can't understand Chinese." Chen Qiang suddenly realized.
"Hasta's contractor" did not mean to continue attacking. He held the jade pendant and two bundles of hair firmly in his arms, and then silently turned to Chen Qiang and Qin Lingxue.
"Success!" Sesinlu looked excited, "Sure enough, the so-called part of the body does not necessarily contain bones and flesh and blood..."
"God doesn't care, God doesn't mind, God doesn't care," Chen Qiang said, as if he was the high priest of Hasta. "Mortals would think that flesh and blood would be more valuable than nails or hair, but it was just an illusion of self-righteousness."
For the old dominant, part of the body is just a part.
"Hasta's contractor" let out a urge tone.
"Do we need it too... OK." Chen Qiang shrugged.
This "Hasta's contractor" seems to be different from Wei Yuanshan, and is not a reluctant and impatient person.
He took out the knife from his bag, slowly cut off his hair, threw it to the monster, and then squatted down to take off a strand of her hair before coming to Xiaoxue, who was still retching.
Chapter completed!
