On the way home, Cheng Shen repaired the damaged parts of his body a little bit. He didn't need to be miserable to win Margot's sympathy. On the contrary, if he showed serious injuries, it might affect his actions in the next few days.

It is impossible for him to hide in this house all the time, and the system will not always issue survival tasks to him.

Subsequent tasks will only get more demanding.

He still doesn't know the purpose of the system for letting him come here.

When she got home, Marge had recovered. There were still purple bruises on her neck, and her hair was messy. When she saw Cheng Shen, her eyes were dim, but she didn't ask what happened after he left home.

"mom……"

Cheng Shen tried to speak.

"Go back to the room." Margo interrupted in a cold tone, and then she picked up the oil lamp and went back to the bedroom and closed the door.

Cheng Shen stood there for a while and returned to his room with his head down. He dodged before, and the huge crack cut by Coyne on the ground was gradually returning to its original shape under the thick darkness.

"The characteristics of the nightmare world..."

Thoughts flashed.

Cheng Shen was thinking more about another thing: I might have been exposed...

Margot's reaction made him feel uneasy. The family has been together for so long, even if he pretends to be like Karl, when faced with some key choices, he will subconsciously make a decision to follow his heart.

For example, if the accident happened tonight, if it was Karl, it might not dare to stand up...

No, if it was Carl, what happened tonight would not have happened.

After closing the door, Cheng Shen groped to the corner to pick up a few broken puppet limbs and stuffed them into the closet.

Not long after, I heard creaking and chewing sounds from the closet.

He lay quietly on the bed.

boom……

There was a faint roar from the street outside the house, but the thick darkness seemed to be able to block even the sound, making the sound extremely weak.

Coyne must have had a great fight with that spider...

Cheng Shen thought to himself.

He was worried that Coyne would not be able to beat the spider before, and wanted the Faceless Angel to stay and assist secretly, but after thinking about it carefully, the bodies controlled by the spider were only at the level of third- and fourth-tier professionals.

And Coin definitely has the strength of the top four.

The only thing he needs to worry about is that the people from the Salvation House will take the opportunity to attack Coyne after hearing that the battle is coming...

It's just that he can't stop this kind of thing just by thinking about it.

Thinking.

Cheng Shen's consciousness gradually fell into silence.

……

call.

The cold wind rolled the windbreaker, and the underside of the large clothes was bulging, making it look very bloated, and a terrifying mask was revealed from the collar that was blown open. There was a long and pointed beak on the mask, and the holes in the eyes glowed with purple light.

After using the crow doctor's license, Cheng Shen obtained such a mask directly.

Similarly, he automatically became a working crow doctor without going through the interview process.

He can see more detailed properties in the panel unlocked by the system.

【Cheng Shen (Camouflage name: Faceless)】

[Occupation: Crow Doctor]

[Position: Gray Crow]

【Resume: None】

【Performance: None】

[Evaluation: 0 (Who would want an unknown new doctor to treat him? Unless it is absolutely necessary.)]

……

gray crow,

black crow,

Blood Raven.

From low to high, this is the position division of crow doctors, and it also symbolizes the status of each crow doctor.

If you want to improve your job rating, you can only get performance rewards by treating patients.However, it is not that he can cure people if he wants to help people after he becomes Doctor Crow. This still needs the recommendation of the clinic and the approval of the patients.

to be honest.

That is, as a newcomer, before his reputation is established, he can only accept the job through the arrangement of the clinic.

Otherwise, he would have to search for patients from house to house by himself.

Not only do they fail to earn performance, but they are also easily reported to the city guards as unscrupulous quacks practicing medicine illegally.

——Because blood therapy was once very popular and the threshold for using it was extremely low, the supervision of illegal medical practice in the old city was very strong.

At least on the surface...

But the good news is that there are eighteen crow clinics in the midtown and outer suburbs.

Cheng Shen can choose a job at will without worrying about being exposed.

the sick,
There are also many.

"There are six crow clinics in Midtown, but those who can work here are basically senior doctors.

There are dozens of patients who have been put to death under his command...

I can't get my head around here. "

Cheng Shen thought.

Doctor Crow's performance can be understood literally, which means that he can make more money and less money.

But at present, he has no status and status, and the highest social class he can contact is the civilians in the central city.

His ideal place to earn performance should also be here.

However, the reality reminded him that if he stayed at the clinic in Midtown, he might not be able to assign a single patient until the end of the year.In the old city with a clear class management system, not many people can afford to see a doctor.

Only go downtown.

The lower city is poor, and although he earns little, at his level, as long as he can get in touch with patients, he can quickly make a name for himself.

——The doctors in the old city still basically kept the way of practicing medicine in the middle ages, bloodletting, opening holes, cutting wherever it hurts... If he can't get his head around such a group of quack doctors, he won't have to live...

At that time.

He would earn more when he returned to Midtown.

clatter,
clatter……

The hard heel stepped on the floor tiles to make a crisp sound, but it couldn't be heard too far in the dense fog.Cheng Shen raised his head and looked around, a golden-red halo appeared in his eyes, covering up the pulsating purple in his eyes.

His vision broke through the thick fog.

Cheng Shen saw buildings standing silently in the darkness like tombs.

"There are horrible nightmares in Nightmare Town at night, so what will happen in this town?
Margot told me to go home at night, because my father was going to work...

Coyne's job is a butcher in a slaughterhouse, meaning his job is to slaughter people who wander in the night?

But who would be wandering in such a dark night..."

wow...

A faint sound suddenly reached Cheng Shen's ears, and he stepped lightly, approaching the street where the sound came from.

Perceived creep.

He saw an extremely horrifying scene through the divergent soul power.

The street paved with tidy floor tiles cracked, and countless blood vessel-like veins gushed out. The ground bulged and was scarlet like a fountain, surrounded by a body of blood-red bugs crawling densely and crawling out of the ground.

Blood poison!
Or it could be said to be a polluted body that has been heavily infected with blood poison!
In Carl's memory, didn't it mean that all the blood poisoning patients had been burned and buried together with the old city?
How would it appear here! ?
Cheng Shen couldn't figure it out.

This polluting body is much more terrifying than the breath emitted by Seaman.

The blood poison in Ximan's body had already been suppressed by its means, and this corpse had completely become a carrier for the propagation and spread of the blood poison. The degree of threat directly made Cheng Shen's alarm ring loudly.

"Is this the kind of thing that threatens the night...?"

Cheng Shen backed away slowly.

click...

Suddenly there was a fine cracking sound from under his feet, and Cheng Shen dodged to the side without thinking.

Bang!
The solid floor tiles were suddenly shattered, and a blood-red tentacle chased his body, wrapping around his arm at lightning speed!
"broken!"

Cheng Shen's eyes shook.

Snapped!
The tentacle immediately shattered into countless tiny flying insects and rushed towards his face, but before it got close, layers of ripples appeared all over Cheng Shen's body, reflecting the space around him like a broken mirror.

The red flying insects immediately lost their strength and fell to the ground.

Cheng Shen didn't dare to stay.

The place where he was standing before was still collapsing downwards, and blood shot out from the pit, dragging a bloody figure with only the upper body.

"Belief……"

"God..."

"eternal life……"

Indescribable chaotic ravings came out of its mouth, like heavy hammers hitting Cheng Shen's solid soul barrier.Fortunately, he attached great importance to this identity, and separated half of his soul power into it.

Half of his soul power.

It is almost equivalent to an ordinary Tier [-] professional!

Moreover, the most important point is that the faceless angel is an experimental body transformed from the third generation of deified metal, without a single bit of flesh and blood tissue!The most terrifying infectivity of the blood poisonous host has no effect on him!
Cheng Shen ran wildly on the street with constant mental shock.

Tear!

Wide metal wings tore his windbreaker and grew out of his back.Cheng Shen's speed soared even more instantly like a god's help!

call!
The sharp bird's beak mask broke through the airflow and let out bursts of screams, just like a crow's warning when it encounters danger.

"These pollutants are very strong...and they seem to be reincarnation monsters derived from nightmares...you can't fight them hard!"

Cheng Shen thought quickly.

In the blink of an eye, he got rid of the blood-poisoned body that attacked him, but as the night deepened, the horror of the city gradually woke up.

Bloody, twisted corpses crawled out from the ground; deserted alleys turned into bloody intestines; eyeballs emerged from the stone carvings on the buildings along the street; darkness surged like weeds in the corners of the city!
"The old city of day and night are two worlds..."

Cheng Shen suddenly woke up.

The city also maintains the line between reality and nightmare during the day, allowing everything to function as usual.

But at night, they completely fell into a nightmare, and all the horrible things that happened in the city will be awakened!

Cheng Shen suspected that the old city during the day and the night were two completely different spaces!
"space……"

He also has one more chance to retrieve an item from his backpack.

In the first two times, he was given licenses to Faceless Angel and Dr. Crow respectively. If he takes out the space compass now but still cannot return to the normal space, this important opportunity to choose will be completely wasted!

"The night has just begun, and my main task two will end in more than nine hours..."

This means that a deadly threat may come at any time!
Cheng Shen was confused.

Waking up the Faceless Angel is equivalent to giving him an extra escape route.

But it turns out that even if he has two lives now, this city can still kill him easily!

The degree now has to face a choice, whether to choose to protect the identity of Dr. Crow to survive, or to protect the identity of Karl.Because he was very suspicious that there was still terror in that family that could threaten him!
He has dealt with two dangerous people, Marge and Coyne, safely. Who else in the family can pose a danger to him?

Cheng Shen could only think of one answer.

younger sister!

To deal with his sister, Cheng Shen had to leave one last permission for Karl's identity to prepare a cursed object.

otherwise.

Facing the weirdness with his body will undoubtedly lead to death!
bang bang...

When Cheng Shen was running at high speed, he suddenly heard some different voices. His perception spread outwards, and his heart moved. He immediately turned around and ran to another street next to him.

boom!
The deafening loud noise let him know that he had found the right place. In the street, blood splattered and poisonous insects flew.The revived blood-poisoned bodies are besieging a burly strange man in a black windbreaker.

The windbreaker it was wearing had its long sleeves removed, and it looked like a modified vest with a very high neckline. The muscles on the exposed strong arms were crowded like fist-sized tree tumors, as strong as a bull. !
boom! !

It swung a huge ax and smashed a blood-poisoned body into mud. The splashed juice fell on it, but it couldn't penetrate its blue-gray stiff body at all.

Butcher?

hunter?

Executioner?
Cheng Shen thought of a series of words that Margo used to describe Coyne.

He finally knew who the slaughterhouse Coyne was working for and what it was there to clean up!
These hunters who are only dispatched at night are actually to clean up the terror that wakes up from the nightmare? !

Cheng Shen didn't have time to think too much, and immediately rushed in the direction of the hunter, and even pulled a group of blood-poisoned bodies that he had attracted to the street where the hunter was!

"These ghosts will trouble you!"

Cheng Shen was very grateful.

He could tell that the hunter was already a corpse-like existence like Coyne, and corpses were not afraid of blood poisoning. They were probably a batch of tools specially made by the city's managers.

As such.

It is not difficult to understand what Margo cursed Coyne...

boom!
Cheng Shen felt the threat of death from hundreds of meters away from the airflow from the giant axe.

The metal wings behind him made a clanging sound, and they vibrated at a high speed, dragging his body to one side to hide.

The targets of these hunters are all creatures that move at night, including him of course!
But compared to those blood-poisoned bodies, his moving speed is much faster.

As the saying goes, when facing danger, you don't need to run fast by yourself, as long as you run faster than the people around you is enough!

Whoosh!
Cheng Shen passed through the street like a shadow, leaving the hunter behind in an instant. It seemed to sense Cheng Shen's provocation and wanted to chase after him, but it was immediately overwhelmed by the blood poisonous host that also did not distinguish between friend and foe!
boom……!
After Cheng Shen ran a long way, he still heard the roar coming from that street.

After silently praying for the hunter who helped him take the blame, he continued to flee.

Cheng Shen was going to flee to the lower city in one breath, looking for a clinic, and the city would return to normal after dawn.

He strayed into the nightmare side of the old city, and now even if he hides in the house, he can no longer avoid these terrible monsters.

The only thing to do is escape.

but.

Cheng Shen's escape route also had a target at this moment.

He released his perception, and he could find a hunter struggling to fight against the blood-poisoned body almost every not far away. The number of horrors awakened in this city at night was extremely large, but there were also many hunters.
