Chapter 4 - Chapter 4: I Went Crazy and Got Stronger

Baiyu is a very decisive person.

Once he made up his mind, he no longer hesitated and began climbing up the mountain rope. The distance of two floors wasn't far, especially given the urgency of time, and he quickly returned to his room.

The surroundings fell into silent darkness.

The abomination was slaughtering in another building, a very good piece of news for Baiyu.

He tightly gripped the magic elixir with his left hand and, following his memory, felt around under the coffee table with his right hand to find a flashlight.

"Tape, rope."

"Have to be quick, who knows if that monster will come back."

Baiyu quickly found tape and a short rope in the utility room and stuffed them into his backpack.

He needed to ensure that once he went mad later, he wouldn't move around and cause a big commotion. The tape was to stick over his mouth, the rope to bind his feet.

Everything was ready.

Baiyu hesitated for a moment, then picked up the nearly twenty-pound Great Guan Blade.

In this cold and eerie world, only the hard handle of the blade could give him a bit of warmth.

The door of the room next door was open.

Actually, it couldn't be called open; half of the iron door had been destroyed, with numerous dense tooth marks on it, as if bitten off.

Baiyu stood at the door, opened the reagent cap, and drank the potion in one gulp.

Gulp.

The rich taste of green tea emerged at the corners of his mouth.

Suddenly, a strange heat rose from below his belly, radiating scorching warmth throughout his body, turning his skin into a hot, pale red.

"Damn, could this magic elixir be fake?"

Baiyu felt that this magic elixir had other negative effects.

But now time was pressing, he couldn't think too much, and he darted into the room.

The dark environment emitted a bloody smell.

The walls and floor were covered with various strange symbols painted in red, from which halos flowed, exuding waves of evil, decadent aura.

Countless maddening whispers lingered in his ears, driving one insane, loosening flesh.

Baiyu clearly felt that without the mad potion, the moment he stepped into the room, he would instantly transform abnormally.

Despite this, his flesh was constantly trembling, and soon blood spurted from his palm, splitting open with a mouth full of dense teeth.

"An ordinary person would go insane seeing themselves suddenly turn into this appearance, good thing I'm already nearly mad."

Ignoring the abnormality in his hand, Baiyu walked into the living room.

Soon he discovered something unusual, after all, the room was only so big, and the red light in the darkness was extremely conspicuous.

It was a piece of paper full of text written in blood, about the size of an A4 sheet.

"Could it be this coincidental, a demon contract or something..."

Baiyu walked forward.

Next to the paper was a box, currently in an open state, obviously the container for the paper.

"I want to achieve beauty beyond all beings..."

There was only this one sentence on the paper, the handwriting was from the female streamer, it seemed she turned into her current form because of this paper.

The aesthetic view of these strange items is fundamentally different from humans.

Perhaps they consider pink little tentacles cute, aren't you making trouble now.

Baiyu glanced at the time on his phone.

He had already been inside for three minutes, less than two minutes of normal time left.

Without hesitation, he put the paper back into the box and then firmly slammed the lid shut.

The murmuring sounds in his ear gradually weakened.

The strange, twisted, and decadent feeling in the entire room quickly dissipated, the writing on the walls stopped radiating red light, and the surroundings returned to silence.

"As expected, the power of the abomination alone is insufficient to create the Simulation Realm; it is influenced by this creepy thing."

Baiyu thought to himself.

But at this time, a change suddenly occurred.

The box made of unknown material in his hand instantly disappeared, appearing in the white space within his mind.

Baiyu's expression changed repeatedly.

This thing, outside, can drive people insane and transform abnormally, and now it's directly in his mind?

Yet he had no time to think much now.

The time had reached five minutes!

The mad melody dropped his intelligence by fifty points.

His thinking quickly slowed down, problems he could normally figure out with his pinky now required a long time to ponder. Soon he would cease thinking altogether.

In another minute, he would be completely turned into a moron!

Time is urgent!

Baiyu hurriedly squatted behind the sofa, taking out tape and rope from the backpack, preparing to restrain himself to avoid making too much noise in the few minutes after he was completely mad, attracting the abomination to come back.

Most abominations act on instinct.

Which means killing randomly.

But unexpected movements, sounds, or even glances could attract the abomination.

Once the source is resolved, the Simulation Realm diminishes visibly. Surely they will soon abandon the decision for cold handling outside and enter the community for rescue.

He just needed to endure these few minutes.

As he acted, his left palm cracked open again, sprouting a monstrous mouth full of sharp teeth.

"Hey hey, enough is enough, I'm nearly mad, and you still come."

Baiyu only felt his scalp tingling, sanity value dropping madly.

After this mouth grew, the tumultuous sensation in his flesh finally slowly faded, but Baiyu's mind was unable to think of anything else.

The time had exceeded six minutes!

His intelligence had sharply reduced to seventy points, in a few dozen seconds, he would really turn into an idiot.

He could barely think of anything in his mind now, it was almost going to crash.

"Damn, this magic elixir is really problematic, how could I think of such a degenerate scene."

Baiyu was somewhat unable to control his body.

His hands and feet trembled uncontrollably at this moment, let alone sealing his mouth with tape, even a simple movement like picking up the tape took his brain ten seconds to react and issue a command.

Failed!

Though he successfully contained the source of the extraordinary event pollution.

But now he was completely out of control.

The subsequent impact of the magic elixir far exceeded his expectations, he didn't know what he would do after completely going mad.

Time had reached seven minutes!

Baiyu stopped struggling, his mouth curled into a bizarre smile, he slowly stood up from the darkness, swaying as he approached the wall, like a gecko, crawling up the wall.

Eight minutes!

The sharp teeth in the palms of his hands bit tightly onto the wall, he had entirely transformed into a reptile, swiftly moving along the wall, if this scene was seen, it would surely scare someone half to death.

The madness brought by the magic elixir wasn't the insanity in the ordinary sense.

It was madness from behavior to thought, utterly crazy.

Bang!

At this time, the half-closed iron door Baiyu had shut was violently opened.

A slim figure walked in.

"The Simulation Realm is disappearing, is it because the abomination was killed by me, or due to other reasons?"

"The twisted aura emitted here just now was the most severe."

"The source should be in this place."

Lin Shan coldly surveyed the surroundings, equipped with thermal night vision goggles, her actions weren't hindered even in the darkness.

"There's heat; something biological moved here, less than five minutes ago. Is it human? Or is there another abomination hiding here?" Lin Shan's beautiful eyes flickered.

As a seasoned investigator, she wouldn't lower her guard at any time.

"Heat moved from the living room towards the window, then remained on the wall, it jumped out from the window? No, the remaining heat on the wall is abnormal, it's on the wall, it's above my head!!"

Lin Shan swiftly raised her head.

Only to see Baiyu pounce down like an octopus, crashing violently onto her.
