Let me live [Quick Transmigration]

----

Running up the stairs in a hurry, the figure at the top of the stairs turned out to be Eric.Seeing that the few people in the room were safe and sound, he was obviously relieved. He was about to open his mouth to say something, but his eyes fell on the diary that was being held in his hand by the pig iron boiling water at the moment, and his whole person obviously froze.

When looking for clues in the game, no one felt that something was wrong. When the NPC himself was caught holding his personal belongings, the scene suddenly became awkward.The pig iron boiled in a guilty conscience, and Ke Menghui saw that the situation was not good, so he hurried to question Eric before he got angry. "We...were looking for you." He tried to pretend to be angry, "Didn't you say that the passage leads to the second floor? Why are we on the third floor after we came out?"

"You have even been to the archives... the danger on the third floor is nothing to you, right?" Eric said bluntly, and walked into the room slowly, staring straight at the pig iron boiling water, " That's mine."

The pig iron boiled water silently passed the things over.Ke Menghui hesitated for a moment, but he still didn't have the nerve to stop him. He watched as Eric snatched the diary, which might be an important prop, and stuffed it into his pocket indiscriminately.Eric's body trembled a little. He seemed to have just noticed the monster's corpse in the corner of the room, and took another step back involuntarily.Unexpectedly, when he opened his mouth again, he apologized.

"The passage... I made a mistake, I'm sorry..." He whispered, and then it seemed that he finally mustered up the courage, and moved his eyes to the road to the underworld, which was standing quietly by the side, and the person who was hugged by him. The mermaid in his arms, "But, I... I thought you would leave immediately, so I asked you to take him away... If you don't want to leave, please return him to me..."

"Give it back to you?" Road to Hades asked coldly, "Shall you put him in that dirty and small glass jar and keep him in an underground room?" When Eric was at a loss for words, he Then he added: "That's all right... I'm more worried that you'll kill him, like Jude."

When he said the first half of the sentence, Eric had already dropped his gaze to the floor because of nervousness; when he heard the second half of the sentence, he suddenly raised his head, his pale face flushed suddenly, his lips were trembling, but he couldn't refute for a long time . "You can't say that..." The pig iron boiling water couldn't help but say, "We don't know what happened..."

"Didn't Frieda tell you everything?" Road to Hades put on an impatient face, "Jude regarded him as a friend, and was tricked by him into the magic circle, where he became a sacrifice for the devil..."

The pig iron boiling water showed a puzzled expression, and before he could speak, Ke Menghui stomped on him calmly, making him swallow back the "I didn't know Frieda said this" that he almost said.After being taken aback for a moment, Eric suddenly became agitated, "She's talking nonsense!" He said loudly, "I didn't lie to him...he just..." His voice became choked, "It's my fault..."

Using Eric's confusing narration, a story with a very simple plot can be pieced together: when Jude came to the nursing home to work as a nurse three years ago, it was when Vera's condition began to improve.Anthony was in a good mood, and the restrictions on Eric were relaxed. Jude was about his age and had a cheerful and sunny personality. He took the initiative to express kindness to "the doctor's sickly, lonely and introverted son", and the two quickly became friends. .Eric was lonely for too long, and soon he became very dependent on this friend. The pain he had endured for a long time needed to be told, so he told some secrets that could not be known to outsiders.

Jude is not the kind of person who is full of passion and jealous of evil. After he knew what was going on in this nursing home, his first thought was not to expose the crime to the outside world, but to persuade Eric to leave this twisted family. run away.It's just that Eric has lived under his father's oppression for so many years, and he has long since dared not make any resistance. His mother's condition has improved recently... Even with the encouragement of his friends, he couldn't muster up the courage for a while.

Jude alone made ready to escape.One night, he sneaked into the nursing home to find Eric... I don't know if he went to the wrong place by accident, or because he shouldn't be curious, he entered the third floor, which was closed to the outside world and claimed to house patients with serious infectious diseases. Just that night, a synthetic beast escaped from its cage... Jude was attacked in the corridor, his body was torn apart by teeth and claws, and he just died.

There was a moment of silence after the voice fell.After that, Ke Menghui was the first to speak, "How was Jude's body...how?" He asked.

Eric grimaced. "The magic circle..." he said intermittently, "it accepts living things, and it also accepts the dead... By the time I know it, my father has already..."

"Is that what your father said?" Road to Hades suddenly said, "Accept living things as well as newly dead ones?"

Eric wanted to nod subconsciously, but halfway through the movement, he slowly stopped. "You..." he whispered, "What do you mean?"

"The traditional demon circle will only accept sacrifices that are in the circle or that are taken away by the circle itself." No matter what the road to the underworld is saying, the tone is always so calm, "However, your father reformed I don’t know if the magic circle in the future will relax the conditions in this regard... Oh, you don’t seem to know about the transformation? When you first saw me, you thought I was a demon who came to receive sacrifices , it seems that you don't know much about what your father did..."

Eric just stared at him.His previously flushed face was now pale again. "What do you mean?" he asked again, as if the tape had stuck.

"You threw the diary into the archive room, but you didn't look carefully at the contents..." Road to Hades said softly, with a slight sarcasm in his tone.He motioned for the pig iron to boil the water and handed the medical records to Eric. Eric took it and squeezed it tightly with his thin, bruised fingers, crumpling the pages and still not opening them. .Road to Hades stared at him for a while, then looked away.

"Let's continue." He said to his two companions, "The flesh and blood of the sacrifice will be digested quickly, and the bones will be digested a bit slower. The power of the magic circle here is not strong. It has been less than three years, and there should be some remaining parts... …Find Vera, figure out the structure of the magic circle that receives the power, destroy the two magic circles, take out the remains, and 'Jude's whereabouts' can be confirmed."

"Are you going to fight?" Pig iron boiled water and said, "Can you fight? I've thought about it for a long time..." He glanced at Eric and didn't say any more.Ke Menghui hesitated to speak, and saw that the road to the underworld started to go outside the door, so he followed.They passed by Eric one after another, and the pig iron boiling water couldn't hold back a soft "hum".Eric swayed slightly, then turned around.

"I..." he stammered, "You want...you can't..." He chased after a few steps, took a deep breath, quickened his pace to catch up, and spoke a little more fluently, "I and You go together..."

"Why, you want to stop us?" The pig iron boiled water said angrily, "How many people has your father killed, and you are still going to be an accomplice? Believe it or not, I will fight you together..." Ke Menghui tugged him, He reluctantly stopped.Eric didn't say a word, he followed the players out the door, and stopped in surprise when he found that the stairs suddenly disappeared.

The number plate on the door of the room changed to "307".After the black blood manipulated by Road to Hades pushed the door and closed it, the space inside the room also changed: a faint sound that seemed to be whining and crying, together with a strange smell like rotten flesh and blood mixed with honey. The fresh and sweet breath overflowed from the crack in the door.

"So it's the next one..." Road to Hades whispered, "It should be behind this." He half turned around, and Lu You felt his arm lift up slightly, realizing what he was going to do , let go of the hand that hugged his shoulder and neck.Eric, who was the first to react, immediately took a step forward, but Road to Hades ruthlessly ignored him, and handed Lu You into the arms of Ke Menghui, who followed and stretched out his hand.

Ke Menghui probably has a lot of experience in caring for others, so he adjusted his posture smoothly, and even lowered his head and gave him a comforting smile.Lu You looked at his face similar to his own, feeling a little weird, hesitated for a moment before reaching out to hold his shoulder to maintain balance.

Eric's expression darkened, and he turned his eyes away. "You..." He looked at the road to the underworld, and spoke very hard, "What are you going to...do?" He swallowed a bit, and asked in a very small voice, "Will you... kill him?"

"Do you want him to die?" Road to Hades, who was about to push the door, paused, then turned to look at him, "The people who died here, including Jude, need revenge; you, and you Mother, the torture can end after he dies. Do you want him to die?" He repeated, "You should be able to see that... unlike the intruders who died here before, I can do this A little."

On Eric's thin cheekbones, the flesh twitched slightly.He clenched his fingers tightly, and veins appeared on the back of his hand.After struggling for a while, he finally murmured in a weak voice: "I don't know..."

"Then," said Hades Road, "I have another plan."

----

Anthony heard footsteps.

Not the flustered, confused footsteps of the fugitive, nor the reformed Frieda, or his cringeworthy good-for-nothing son.The sound of footsteps approaching steadily step by step gave him a chill in his heart for no reason.

He opened his eyes, half of his field of vision was the dirty ground, and half was the ugly, disgusting mass of bloody flesh in the middle of the room that had been stripped of its skin.Every few seconds, the piece of meat pulsates, as if it is a huge heart. On the surface of the central part of the piece of meat, a female silhouette is faintly highlighted. The face with closed eyes is the clearest, covered with a layer and a half Transparent light red meat film.

"Vera..." he murmured, propped his hands on the ground, and straightened up unsteadily.The hangover gave him a splitting headache.Who came in... What about those synthetic beasts he arranged outside?What about the traps on the floor and walls of the room?why so quiet...

The footsteps stopped behind him.Anthony turned his head slowly, because kneeling on the ground, the first thing he saw was the man's hand hanging by his side.The pitch-black blood slowly flowed down the slender fingers, congealing into a dull dagger, and in the other hand, was holding a scroll emitting a faint white light.

He looked up, and saw the cold face, and the pair of curved horns that looked like molten liquid. The "devil" looked at him, neither smiling mockingly nor getting angry with disgust, looking at him as if he had already died.

"Hehe..." Anthony laughed lowly, "Has it been discovered yet? The sacrifice was taken away..." He tried a few times before standing up, staggering to his feet, and opened his arms, "Come on, kill me, punish me, take my soul away...I'm tired anyway..."

The demon took a step closer.He didn't dodge, let the black blade of the dagger penetrate his heart - which is what he thought would happen.The actual situation is that his ankle was jerked by something, and he fell down. When he was about to touch the ground, he was supported a bit to prevent him from falling too hard.The thing that tripped him entangled his hands and feet, making him unable to move. The demon cut two very shallow wounds on his throat and heart with a dagger, and then walked towards the protruding flesh. The woman on the surface, repeated the same thing.

Anthony suddenly felt panicked.

"What are you going to..." he murmured, "What are you going to...don't touch her!" His murmur turned into a shout, then a howl, "Don't touch my Vera—I Let her live, I managed to keep her alive! She has recovered, and she will be back to health soon!" He seemed to have forgotten that he had readily expressed his willingness to accept death a few minutes ago, writhing desperately on the ground, "We'll be together - we can always..."

The demon remained silent throughout.He stood between the man struggling in vain on the ground and the twisted piece of flesh, unfolded the scroll in his hand, and smeared the blood from both sides on the dagger.White light emanated from the parchment, engulfing everything in sight in an instant.Anthony felt that he was pulled hard, as if a red-hot iron hook pierced his soul and pulled him out of his body. He continued to wail miserably, but his own voice could not be heard in his ears... Tumbled, dragged, torn, squeezed...

After an extremely long moment, the world regained its stability.Anthony opened his eyes, his vision was blurry, as if covered by something... everything he saw was tinged with red.He wanted to move, but he couldn't move at all, his body seemed to be completely stuck in the mud... No, his body was bigger than he thought, full of inexhaustible vitality... It was beating like a huge heart with...

He tried his best to open his eyes wide, and vaguely saw a figure on the ground in front of him helping the collapsed person up.That man... that man... Anthony grew his mouth, which was the only moving part of his body other than the eyes, and he felt the flesh covering his face shrink towards the inside of his mouth, and he let out a long cry , hearing the familiar screams in my ears——

----

The few people waiting in the meat-red corridor behind door 307, which looked like the inside of the digestive tract, were startled by the sudden scream that pierced the air.The woman's voice was sharp and desperate, and after a few seconds, it turned into a screeching sound like fingernails scratching glass, and then cut off abruptly after a few seconds.The pig iron boiled water had just covered his ears with his hands, so he had to put them down again.

"I seem to have heard this voice before..." He muttered, "When I first came to the third floor..."

Eric paced back and forth uneasily, and when he saw a figure at the end of the corridor, he hurried over.Except for the more blood stains on his body, the road to the underworld looks no different from before he went in to single out the synthetic herd, and he didn't even show the slightest tiredness.Dr. Anthony's body hung limply on his shoulders, as if he was in a coma.Eric ran over, wanted to help but didn't dare, and walked out beside him.

"How...how?" He stammered again, "Successful...?"

Road to Hades put the man on his shoulders down and made him lie flat on the ground. "Anthony" was actually awake, his eyes half-opened, his expression dull and dull.He rolled his eyes slightly, his eyes touched Eric with a tense face, and paused on his face, as if he recognized him.

Eric knelt down beside him, and "Anthony" turned his gaze accordingly.Eric hesitated, and after a while, he called softly: "...Mom?"

The soul of Vera, who had been transformed into Anthony's body, just stared at him blankly.After a while, she seemed to feel tired, closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.Eric stared unblinkingly, slowly getting wet.

"Vera was sober when she was in that body before, but she has been in a state of mental breakdown since then, and it will take a while for her to recover." Road to Hades stood beside Eric, "Sorry, I couldn't directly let your mother There is no way to restore health, and it is impossible to find another healthy person to perform this soul exchange ceremony..."

"This is already good." Eric's tears fell, "This is already..."

Road to Hades paused for a while, and then said: "You can take good care of her...until she regains consciousness. After that, whether she wants to live in this body or die, she can do whatever she wants. A choice has been made." He turned his head and glanced at the end of the corridor, and from the deep darkness, faint, maddened whines were still heard intermittently, "As for the thing inside... since he feels that what he chose is through Let him enjoy the road to the happiness of the two of them. The vitality in that body has already overflowed, and he will be able to live for a long time without sacrifice or further transformation..."

"What if..." Eric whispered, "what if Mom wants to destroy that...?"

Road to Hades shrugged slightly, as if feeling helpless at his attitude of asking everything. "This is your family business." He said not very politely.Startled, Eric lowered his head again and began wiping his eyes with his sleeve.

"Is the next thing left to do is to destroy the magic circle?" Pig Iron Boiled Water asked.He failed to fight, and returned to the sleepy state when he just met.
