It's just that the horror trainee competition has only just begun, and the survivors, who are used to teamwork, can't change their mindset that all humans are on the same side so quickly. So it's normal that everyone can't shift their thinking right away.

Messiah not mentioning it can't really be considered intentional concealment. Some veterans realized it, but still chose to cooperate as a team and kept silent. After all, if this news were spoken out loud, it would only make the already unsettled people even more anxious and uneasy. Not saying it might not be a bad thing.

Henry Clark was thinking as he walked down the first-floor corridor with the trainees who hadn't taken their medicine.

The lighting in this corridor was much brighter than in the basement, and the walls on both sides had clearly been renovated. Even the dirt and moss hidden in the corners were rarely seen.

After dinner, the time of the original host's death in the original story was getting closer.

Henry Clark couldn't pinpoint the exact minute and second of the original host's death, but he remembered the process clearly.

The plot was generally the same; in the original, it was Holy Son who suggested cooperation, dividing the trainees into two groups: one to investigate and one to sleep. The original host followed the sleeping group downstairs, suddenly felt the urge to pee while moving bedding, asked a newcomer to go to the bathroom together, and thus perfectly achieved the first kill.

Avoiding the original host's death was extremely simple—just don't go to the basement bathroom during this period.

After finishing his thoughts, Henry Clark focused on the task at hand.

They were standing in the reading room. There were piles of old newspapers here, making it very troublesome to look things up.

Although it was hard work, it wasn't entirely fruitless.

Soon, the trainees in the reading room found several feature reports.

The old newspapers mentioned very cryptically that the site of this psychiatric hospital was a military base decades ago. Later, a terrifying incident occurred during the war, and it was abandoned. For a time, it was even rumored to be haunted and left uninhabited. Unexpectedly, decades later, it was bought by an unknown businessman, hastily painted over, and converted into the current psychiatric hospital, now open to the public.

All the veterans breathed a sigh of relief.

They had all been frightened by Messiah's words and were on high alert. Fortunately, it wasn't too difficult to obtain information in this instance.

According to horror movie tropes, the events from decades ago are probably the origin of this scenario. Although the main system's mission didn't require them to uncover the cause of the horror, if they wanted to survive, the secret was likely closely related to the origin. If they were lucky enough to figure out what really happened back then, they might even be able to avoid danger and survive the three days safely.

But is it really that simple?

Henry Clark stroked his chin and suddenly heard Holy Son's gentle voice beside him.

"Sorry to ask, but is your hand...?"

The white-haired youth was flawless in every way; he was undoubtedly an almost perfect existence.

Against such perfection, even the slightest flaw became extremely noticeable.

Messiah only noticed the abnormal stiffness in Henry Clark's hands when he lowered his head to look through the newspapers.

Or rather, the person in question deliberately let him notice.

Henry Clark's back stiffened. "Yes."

He didn't try to hide the problem with his hands. Instead, using some effort, he pulled out a newspaper. "It's a comminuted fracture."

【Damn, no wonder I felt his hand posture was a bit odd before—turns out it's a comminuted fracture!】

【Oh my god... If your hand has a comminuted fracture, even if you recover well after getting steel pins, there will definitely be sequelae. It will surely affect daily life.】

【It depends on the severity, right? Even with a comminuted fracture, if it's too serious, the hand is basically useless. If it's a simple break, with proper rest, it can still recover.】

【What, someone above actually noticed? I didn't realize at all. Cat-dumb.jpg】

"I'm very sorry." Holy Son looked a bit stunned and hesitated. "Would you mind if I take a look?"

The white-haired youth extended his hand.

The next moment, a faint golden light appeared at the fingertips of the blond Holy Son, but it disappeared after a moment, warm and gentle.

Henry Clark guessed this must be the special item mentioned in the original story.

In other words, this was the key that made Messiah become no.7, admired by all, and granted the title of Holy Son.

"Sorry... at this level, I can't do anything either."

Messiah shook his head, his deep blue eyes falling on the pair of long, beautiful hands in front of him, comforting, "Although the infinite loop isn't a good place, I have to admit, many miracles can happen here."

"You mean... my hand could recover?"

"Yes," Messiah said patiently. "As long as you have enough survival points, the main system will be more than happy to heal you. Once, half my heart was pierced in a scenario, and the main system restored me to normal in just three seconds—I was as lively as ever."

The original only described that courting death could increase your score, but didn't mention how to obtain survival points.

"Then how do you get survival points?" Henry Clark asked.
