Chapter 324 Investigation of the 5th Floor
Of course, what Lin Yu found in the remaining ashes could not be the relics.
What the two doctors cooked up were two shiny metal keys.
Lin Yu picked it up after digging it, and found that the texture was probably some kind of extremely smooth metal. The material was very special - that's why the two small keys were shining so brightly in the ashes and firelight, and they immediately attracted Lin Yu's attention.
The style is quite simple, it is an ordinary straight-line double-row key, and the two keys look extremely similar, probably for the same type of lock.
Lin Yu picked them up and a prop prompt popped up.
[Key A: An ordinary key, used to open some locks.]
[Key B: An ordinary key, used to open some locks.]
Very simple prop description and naming method.
It's like the style that appears in some old-fashioned pixel-style puzzle games - the function of the key is of course to open the lock.
but……
There is a blood-written prompt with the word "Props", which at least means that the official game has certified that these two things are indeed useful. For Lin Yu, they are not completely useless.
He put away the two keys and then walked towards the interior of this floor.
As soon as he entered the fifth floor, he was intercepted by two doctors and had a battle with them. Lin Yu didn't have time to conduct a detailed investigation!
If you look closely, you will see that the decoration of the corridor on the fifth floor is different from that on the previous floors.
Although the painting style is not inconsistent, it can be seen that the corridor is very grand.
They are all old-fashioned styles from the last century, but compared to the minimalist style of the previous floors with cement floors and white putty walls, this floor at least has tiles.
The overhead lighting is also soft light strips, without any flickering or power outages.
The doors embedded in the corridor walls are all of relatively fine workmanship - not only are there some simple grooves carved out, but the door frames are also edge-wrapped.
Lin Yu could even see the signposts on the wall!
"Your current location leads to XXX"
However, this road sign has been in disrepair for many years, and most of the words are faded and unrecognizable.
Lin Yu could only identify through the rough remaining text that although the entire fifth floor had seven corridors like the other floors, it was divided into three areas.
"Special examination area", "senior physician duty area" and "intensive care area".
The place where he was now was naturally the "senior physician duty area".
Turn left and follow a corridor to enter the "Special Inspection Area".
Because there are no further records in the [Ancient Notes], Lin Yu made a reasonable guess.
My previous exploration of the fifth floor may have been a bit anticlimactic.
Maybe even just crack the code to the door...
But despite this, Lin Yu didn't think he should move forward cautiously or even stop.
The doors in this part of the corridor are all sliding doors made of transparent glass, and there are even glass windows on some walls.
Through the glass, Lin Yu looked at the scene inside - it was surprisingly the same as that of an ordinary hospital.
Various bulky, high-end and sophisticated instruments are displayed under cold white lighting. The whole room is also in a plain white and clean tone. It looks reliable and cool, as if you can smell the disinfectant slowly evaporating on the plastic surface.
Moreover, there seemed to be no one on duty in this inspection area. At least Lin Yu did not see any trace of living creatures.
At the same time, when he strolled through the corridor, Lin Yu did not deliberately conceal his figure, but just walked through it normally, but still did not cause any unusual movement.
In this [One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest] dungeon, the medical staff NPCs are all somewhat aggressive towards the players.
No NPCs came to attack, which at least meant that there were no such NPCs hiding in the dark...
If there is a hidden patient NPC or something like that.
Lin Yu ignored it for the time being.
Anyway, he had no good way to quickly find these weird, autistic NPCs who chose to hide.
Moreover, just from common sense, how could there be patients in a place like the "examination room" of a hospital without a doctor on duty?
It's true that this is a copy of the "Death Game", but as a copy based on facts and a worldview that allows the world to exist reasonably, most things must conform to "common sense".
Of course, it is a good thing that a corridor is quiet. At least it means that nothing bad will happen in this corridor in the short term.
Unless it is a monster NPC that suddenly moved here or a creature without its own intelligence.
Lin Yu slowly observed the silent scenes on both sides of the corridor.
In this uninhabited area, the only thing that can be said to have changed is that some instruments are undergoing automatic debugging and self-maintenance.
The indicator light turns on and off, and the mechanical parts start and then stop.
But it didn't actually work or cause any consequences.
Although there was some movement, it was not enough to attract Li Linyu's attention.
Machine self-checks are all too common, and these machines don't exhibit any deviations that would indicate a problem.
After a brief observation, Lin Yu decided to temporarily give up the detailed investigation of this area and put it at a lower priority - it was naturally impossible to give up completely. After all, the fifth floor was so special and there were only three areas. It was impossible for one of the areas here to have nothing hidden.
At least there should be some extra reward.
of course……
The prerequisite is that Lin Yu really has time by then.
After all, Lin Yu is not in a leisurely adventure solo dungeon now.
Zhi Geng and Max have gone to the first floor to "look for clues". Although Lin Yu cannot fully trust these two people, he does not think that they are really in a completely opposite state.
Until there is direct evidence that they are engaging in a zero-sum game in this copy, Lin Yu will maintain friendly relations with them.
The main reason is that robins are really difficult to deal with.
and so……
If Max and Zhigeng really found some more crucial clues and came to invite Lin Yu, then Lin Yu might even choose to give up the exploration of the fifth floor and instead act with them!
Even Lin Yu had some speculations...
We haven't explored the fifth floor in too deep before, perhaps because of those two members from the Night's Watch.
As for the option of inviting them to explore the fifth floor together...
Lin Yu had an intuition telling him that it was better not to do this.
And now Lin Yu is very clear that the so-called "intuition" in this copy is actually probably a reminder from the residual memory that was previously erased.
So, Lin Yu decided to follow his intuition.
"Before they find me, I'd better investigate the 'Intensive Care Unit' on the fifth floor as soon as possible."
