The potion shop.
The backyard.
Bloodsaw gazed seriously at Lynn beside him and said, "So, have you really made your decision? Are you sure you want to walk the path of the Night Doctors?"
Lynn seriously clenched his fist over his chest and said, "Love the job you do, and besides, didn't you say it yourself, teacher? Although the Night Doctors are stubborn and perverted, they are the most skilled doctors in the Dark World. If I'm going to learn, of course I should learn from the best!"
Bloodsaw's face was full of exasperation.
Although that was true.
He really didn't have even the slightest bit of fondness for that profession.
After all, as someone with status and reputation, he genuinely didn't want to have to carry a bottle of pesticide with him when going out just to deal with those Night Doctors.
And if his disciple were to become perverted along with that group.
He really didn't want someone around him at all times who would stare at him with an investigative gaze, always trying to find some illness in him!"Although you have the ambition to become a Night Doctor, and your teacher isn't unsupportive, but..."
Bloodsaw looked at him seriously and said:
"The Night Doctors aren't something you can become just because you want to, because no one knows where their headquarters are, and even if you're unlucky enough to encounter a wandering Night Doctor."
"I'm afraid before you can even ask for a referral, that Night Doctor would have already dissected you!"
Lynn smiled slightly, flipped his finger, and gave a thumbs up, saying:
"Don't worry, teacher, I have a special channel that can help me find the Night Doctors' headquarters."
Because he had the special job change quest book given to him by the System.
Looking at Lynn's confident appearance.
Bloodsaw shook his head.
Forget it.
Since it was the path he chose himself, there was nothing he could do to interfere.
After all, newborn calves aren't afraid of tigers; without experiencing the harsh realities of this world, one could never truly understand the hardships of the future.
Bloodsaw lowered his head, gazing deeply at him, and said:
"Since this is the path you've chosen yourself, your teacher respects your decision. However, you need to prepare yourself these next few days. I won't be staying here much longer, so I'll be putting you through an intensive training period."
"Let's strive to significantly improve your medical skills and survival abilities during this time!"
Lynn said in astonishment, "In... intensive training?"
Bloodsaw stood up with a crack, his face completely indifferent, grabbed the chainsaw beside him, and pulled it open with a single motion.
"Although your teacher isn't a professional doctor, over these ten years, I've more or less developed some unique techniques."
"Today, your teacher will first teach you [Chainsaw Laparotomy], teaching you how to use a chainsaw to quickly and precisely perform abdominal surgery on patients. This is truly a skilled craft."
Lynn said with surprise and delight, "Teacher is so awesome! Then what will we use for training? Little Treasure?"
And just as his words finished.
Knock knock knock—
A knocking sound came from the front hall.
Followed immediately by a hoarse shout.
"Is there a doctor here? Just passing through, my stomach has been having some abnormal fluctuations recently, can someone help diagnose it?"
"Yes!"
Lynn and Bloodsaw turned around in unison, their movements perfectly synchronized.
...
Black mist filled the air, the sky pitch black.
Soul-Severance Street.
On the dark street, gusts of yin wind swept through, the heavy night like an iron curtain, making this place appear exceptionally eerie.
At this very moment, a young man with a pale face was scrambling along the street, running forward in terror.
From the darkness behind him.
Occasional bursts of mysterious laughter could be heard, inexplicably making one feel creeped out.
"What... what the hell kind of place is this?! I was clearly... I was clearly just on the road moments ago, how could..."
Bai Yi trembled, continuously running forward.
He knew.
He might have encountered a supernatural incident.
Because just half an hour ago, he had just left school and was preparing to go to a bar for a gathering organized by some friends. To take a shortcut, he followed the Didi navigation through the nearest alley...
But he truly never expected.
This navigation would directly guide him to such a ghostly place!
He could one hundred percent confirm that he was definitely not in Shanghai right now, because whether it was the surrounding buildings or the environment, it completely wasn't modern in style.
"Didi, you bastard!"
His eyes trembled with anxiety.
Could it be that he had really encountered a supernatural world?
Or accidentally stepped into some alternate dimension?
Because in various horror movies, he often saw similar scenarios—a brainless and innocent young man inexplicably steps into some remote place, and then appears in some terrifying realm...
Were they really just randomly selecting a lucky audience member?
He gasped for breath, not daring to stop, quickly running forward along the road.
And then in the next moment.
In the billowing black mist ahead by the roadside, he saw a woman with long hair, wearing a red dress, standing there with her back to him, as if waiting for someone.
Her back looked very elegant, with long hair cascading over her shoulders, giving off a sorrowful beauty.
A living person?
Bai Yi panted, his face full of astonishment.
Because this was the first living being he had encountered along this road during his entire run.
He couldn't care less now; the most important thing was to quickly figure out where he was.
"Miss, hello, could you tell me what place this is? It's my first time here, I'm a bit lost."
He stopped behind the woman, panting as he asked.
Black mist steamed.
A gentle breeze swept through.
The woman seemed not to have heard his words, standing there motionless like a statue.
"Hello?"
Bai Yi asked again in astonishment.
But he still received no reply.
He swallowed, instinctively feeling a chilling sensation rising from the back of his neck.
"Um... excuse me... is this place..."
He reached out and patted the woman's shoulder.
Thud—
Before he could finish his words.
The woman's head instantly rotated three hundred sixty degrees, revealing a face that looked like a pure white mask, with large amounts of blood gushing down from the woman's neck.
Buzz—
Bai Yi's gaze instantly went blank.
"Welcome to—Soul-Severance Street."
That mask-like pure white face slowly revealed a mysterious smile.
"Ah!!!"
Bai Yi instantly trembled and let out a terrified scream.
He fell to the ground, then immediately scrambled up frantically, stumbling and crawling as he ran wildly into the distance.
A ghost!
It's a ghost!
At this moment, his face was deathly pale, his palms icy cold. No longer caring about anything else, he trembled as he ran wildly further ahead.
He didn't dare look back.
He was deeply afraid the female ghost behind him would chase after him, running wildly the entire way.
But this road seemed to have no end.
In the distance, he saw two tall, thin men standing by the wall ahead holding umbrellas, but as he gradually closed the distance, he saw that they weren't two people at all.
But two "people" whose half-bodies were connected together!
Squeak—
The sound of a saw pulling through flesh and blood.
With just one glance, Bai Yi was immediately scared to the point of trembling all over, losing his soul and composure.
Because that "person" was using a saw to cut through the connection point of their two connected bodies, with large amounts of minced flesh and blood splattering out everywhere.
