Gu Jun had no idea how long he had been asleep and whether he had been resuscitated or not.
When he regained consciousness, he opened the new menu in his mind to check whether the autopsy mission had been completed or not …
After reading through the few pieces of information that had yet to be confirmed, Gu Jun relaxed. The mission had been completed. His liver had won again.
"Fifteen days in a row, I've really set a new record."
Even though Gu Jun was in a hurry to claim this extremely difficult mission reward, he still wanted to understand the situation first. He tried to open his eyes but realized he could not. Then he realized that he could not feel the muscles in his body, and his physical presence was extremely weak.
His heart sank. This state … was similar to the nightmare man, but not exactly the same. In fact, it was worse than that. He could not even feel his eyeballs.
Furthermore, he could not hear any movement around him. Other than his consciousness, he could not feel anything.
"Have I fallen into a coma? Vegetative state? "
This possibility made Gu Jun panic. He tried to struggle and scream for help, but he was still surrounded by darkness.
'This is bad … Have I overworked myself? '
As a medical student, Gu Jun naturally knew how much trouble he had been in for the past fifteen days. It was already a miracle that he did not die next to the autopsy table. Even if he had really turned into a vegetative state, he had no right to complain. But now was not the time for him to collapse.
Every day, there were more than fifty thousand abnormal babies being born in both worlds.
Even though the number had decreased compared to the peak, the congenital defects of the negative selection babies were showing up more and more. Most of them were direct physical abnormalities.
Every day, there were more than ten new murder cases at the Eastern State and it was on the rise.
The total number of 'negative selection' criminals who had disappeared was more than one hundred.
Phecda could not find them, and neither could the Zoogs. Therefore, the investigation team had a hypothesis. Could it be that these suspects had exploded into powder like the black goat cub and been blown away by the wind? Or could it be that they dissolved into liquid and flowed away like the lamb leg? That seemed to be the only possible explanation for their complete disappearance.
It had been less than a month since the apparition of Shub-Niggurath's power appeared, and hundreds of thousands of families had already suffered misfortune.
The situation was getting worse every day.
How could he collapse at a time like this …
Gu Jun cleared his mind of distracting thoughts and focused his attention on a new message from the System.
[Click to receive your mission reward: 1 contact with the City of Dusk; 1 medical skill; unknown]
Just by looking at the words of the mission reward, Gu Jun's heart was pounding. The harder the mission, the better the reward. He was eager to get the first two rewards, but he was also looking forward to the meaning of "unknown".
"I hope this reward can help me get out of my coma …"
But don't let your mind turn into a cat, he thought.
Unlike Dirty-minded Yu, he did not feel safe as a cat. After all, in horror movies, cats represented bad luck …
With this thought in mind, Gu Jun focused and clicked "Receive". Suddenly, there seemed to be a buzzing sound, and a faint golden light of the setting sun surged up in the darkness. It was as if dawn had dispersed the long night, and the setting sun resisted the darkness. The darkness was quickly illuminated.
At the same time, he also felt a comfortable warmth. The sun shone on his body, as if it had shone into every cell, bringing him new life.
"Ah …"
Gu Jun felt like he was being reinvigorated. The exhaustion that he had accumulated over the past 15 days was being washed away like the spring rain washing away the dust.
He was reminded of the Statue of Life fountain at Carlott College. It was pure, clear, and bright.
The power of the City of Dusk was similar, perhaps it was due to the power of light.
At that moment, he was like a baby receiving a baptism of light, receiving a new life. He could feel the power of the Son of Misfortune that had yet to fully dissipate in his heart melting away. This caused his body and his spirit to break free from some kind of restraint, becoming more free and penetrating.
'Is this also a mission reward, or is this the actual state when I receive the mission reward …'
Gu Jun started to understand. He was not in a coma, he was in a dream and he was ready to receive the mission reward.
This way, when faced with the large amount of energy from the City of Dusk, his body would be able to absorb it better and faster, and undergo new changes.
'This is the baptism brought by the anatomy mission …' Gu Jun thought to himself. If he wanted the best effect, he should use his understanding of anatomy. With that in mind, he no longer suppressed the memories of dissecting the black goat cub …
Epidermis, bone, regeneration fluid, heterogenous tube, suprapodia gland …
The various organs, layers, and structures of the goat leg surged like waves. It was not as violent as a tsunami, but it covered his mind.
To gain power from dissection, to discover the truth of life from dissection.
The first time Gu Jun had this feeling was when he was in the underground tunnel in the foreign world. That was how Doctor Carlop became a superhuman. But before his autopsy ability reached level 2, before he received this baptism, he was stuck at a stage and could not break through.
But now, some new things and new understandings had opened up.
As indescribable as it was, it was in his heart.
This baptism … could it be the baptism caused by the fountain of the Goddess of Life?
Once Gu Jun had this realization, his surroundings changed. In the dim light, the fountain of the Goddess of Life that he had obtained from the illusion appeared. But when he got a clearer look, he realized that the buildings around the fountain were not Carlott College -style buildings.
The buildings were as grand and beautiful as they were familiar to him … They were the City of Dusk.
The fountain of the Goddess of Life of Carlott College is at the City of Dusk?
A thought surfaced in Gu Jun's mind. 'There are members of the foreign civilization in the Randolph Carter Foundation?
Or … Spirit Children from other worlds? '
He knew that there was more than one world that had summoned the Son of Misfortune and was destroyed by the Malformed Banyan Disease.
While his mind was in a mess, the scenery around him became more real. Gu Jun gained a deeper understanding of his body, but it was different from reality. Soon, he understood that this was the feeling of a dream. It felt real, but at the same time, it felt like he was floating …
'I'm entering a dream … a mental dream.'
Speaking of which, Gu Jun had not tried to enter Dreamlands through mental dream before. Before this, his physical body had to travel through physical channels.
But now, he was entering a mental dream, and he appeared to be heading to the City of Dusk.
'The City of Dusk is in Dreamlands?'
