My Monster Fuses Everything

Chapter 105: Chapter 99: Hospital Survivors

Su Han was still possessing the Black Armor, holding a Pu knife in his hand, and following Zhao Yimin as they quickly made their way towards the direction of the cafeteria building.

South City First Hospital was the best third-class hospital within South City. On a regular day, the number of patients it catered to was countless, therefore, even with the outpatient building, inpatient building, administration building, and other constructions being crammed together, the hospital still covered an extensive area.

Following the direction of the extending vines, Su Han and Zhao Yimin quickly arrived at the southwest corner of the hospital, where a small building suddenly appeared before them.

"Be careful not to get ambushed by monsters."

In front of the cafeteria building, a tall Giant Macrophage Dog was confronting Zhu Xiong's Glutton, surrounded by the remnants of about thirty Crawlers and Meat Zombies.

They looked on hungrily, but Zhu Xiong and the others were not the least bit panicked; in fact, the team members had only taken defensive positions and had not yet made a move.

"Roar"

The Giant Macrophage Dog let out a fierce growl and rapidly charged toward the invading enemy, but the Glutton was clearly faster.

Your adventure continues at mvl

It rushed into the group of monsters, holding the axe-hammer from before, and swept across, severing the foremost few monsters at the waist.

The Giant Macrophage Dog attempted to rush forward, but the Glutton's right arm suddenly extended, shooting out like a giant python toward the Giant Macrophage Dog.

Hardening!

Spiritual Energy surged into the Glutton's right arm, causing the flesh-hammer-like limb to become even harder. Its giant maw split open almost to a fan-shaped angle and then slammed into the body of the Giant Macrophage Dog, biting down viciously.

Large chunks of flesh along with bone were bitten off, leaving a large gap where the Giant Macrophage Dog's scapula had been, with blood continuously spouting out, and the Giant Macrophage Dog staggered to the ground.

Drops of blood fell from the Giant Maw on the right arm, which chewed on the flesh in its mouth before swallowing it down into the Glutton's body.

Eerie, bloody, and extremely brutal.

The Meat Zombies and Crawlers quickly charged forward, but the Glutton's right arm, like a chain mace, swept over, knocking them to the ground with a clatter, one mouthful taking a head, another gouging out a heart.

It bathed in blood as it slaughtered through the group of monsters, its axe-hammer mercilessly pounding on the 'survivors' that the right arm had missed.

"Glug"

The onlooking Zhao Yimin and others swallowed hard. The formerly ordinary Angel Envoy Meat Zombies had now become so brutal.

The sparse retaliatory attacks of the Meat Zombies on the Glutton's body were futile; their Claw Strikes could not breach its keratinized skin, and the slaughter concluded within a few minutes.

"Click"

The faint sound of a closing window caught Su Han's attention. With just a glance, he noticed someone was checking the situation outside.

"Zhao Yimin, go and ask them to open the door."

"Yes"

Zhao Yimin strode towards the main entrance of the cafeteria building; the metal iron door was tightly shut, covered with impact dents and bloodstains, which made it look somewhat terrifying.

However, the door was still tightly closed, with no signs of forced entry.

"Bang bang bang"

Zhao Yimin knocked on the door; the sound was muffled, as if something was blocking behind the door, suppressing the vibrations.

"Looks like there are still quite a few people in there."

Brother Zhu stood beside Su Han, his Glutton following closely behind, and also guarded Su Han on both sides.

He was a bold yet careful guy and noticed that the Ancient Worm Tree and the Scorpion Spider Demon were not currently by Su Han's side.

"Having people is a good thing, but this door doesn't look easy to open."

While speaking, Zhao Yimin knocked on the door again, raising his voice, "Open the door, we are survivors, not monsters. If you don't open it, we'll have to open it ourselves."

His tone was not at all polite, but in such an apocalyptic world, it was indeed much more pleasant than the roar of monsters.

Inside the door, there was a rustling noise followed by a long silence, after which a steady, aged voice came through, "Don't be rash; the door is blocked. It will take some time to open it."

Zhao Yimin looked back at Su Han and Zhu Xiong, seeking guidance with his eyes.

Su Han nodded slightly and said, "Give them some time."

Zhao Yimin no longer urged them, and soon, noise from inside indicated that objects were being moved. After about ten minutes, a click echoed as the door slowly opened, revealing the inside situation to Su Han and the others.

Several pairs of vigilant eyes met with theirs; there were many people, all holding weapons—kitchen knives, cleavers, metal rods, legs of stools, all sorts of things.

A few Meat Zombies were called out to stand at the forefront, separating the survivors from Su Han and his group.

Su Han noticed that among the Angel Envoys, one was particularly tall, with a hunchback, likely a First-level Intermediate Crawler.

"Move your Angel Envoys aside, and stand in the cafeteria dining area; don't block the door."

With a calm voice, Su Han's gaze swept over the Angel Envoy monsters and landed on the survivors behind them, especially on a white-haired old man.

He thought to himself in astonishment: So it was this old man who was in charge here.

The old man had white hair, a straight back, broad shoulders, with eyebrows slightly drooping, kind yet stern.

"Folks, call your Meat Zombies to the side; do as he says. We're all kin, not monsters," he said with a steady voice, like a calming anchor. Several young doctors and young men promptly summoned their Angel Envoys aside, and then the crowd moved back toward the dining area, opening up a path.

Su Han took the lead and walked in, with Zhu Xiong closely following behind. The tall Glutton stayed close. Fortunately, the floor of the dining area was high, so after entering, there was no sense of constriction.

The massive dining area was about the size of four or five classrooms, with metal tables piled up in disorder. It was clearly these objects that had blocked the door just now, and it was these objects that had saved their lives.

Although both groups were in the hall, there were several meters between them, and the wariness in their eyes did not fade much.

"Hello," the old leader's gaze fell on Su Han, and from his previous actions, it was clear that Su Han was the decision-maker of the team.

He looked surprised, wondering what the face under the Black Armor was like.

"I am Cao Yubao, the deputy dean of South City First Hospital. I am very grateful to you for clearing the monsters outside and saving us."

Cao Yubao started by expressing his gratitude. Su Han nodded slightly, and the helmet of the Black Armor receded a little, revealing his face.

"How many doctors do you have inside?"

Cao Yubao was taken aback, hesitated, and then said, "Seven doctors, fourteen nurses, ten support staff, thirty-two patients and their family members, with two in critical condition..."

He informed them of the survivors inside the dining hall, pausing, then asked with uncertainty, "Are you official rescue personnel?"

Although Su Han and his team were not in uniform, their coordinated actions and decisive manner made him feel as if he was facing the Armed Forces or the security guard.

Although there were differences, they did not seem like ordinary people.

"We are not," Su Han shook his head and then said, "Dean Cao, start packing up. Everyone here will follow me in a while."

Su Han's voice was decisive, but such an attitude made people even more hesitant because they did not know what his real purpose was.

Cao Yubao asked in a deep voice, "Sir, we need to know where you plan to take us and what we are going to do?"

Zhu Xiong grinned and interjected, "Dean Cao, don't worry, our camp needs doctors, which is why we came here."

Zhu Xiong's words made Cao Yubao startled, and he could not help but feel relieved.

"Are there any patients?"

"Yes, some need surgery."

Zhu Xiong glanced around and said, "Our camp is very safe and strong, as you've seen. It is better to follow us than to cringe here. We welcome capable doctors and nurses, and others can earn safety and food by working hard. It's much better than here."

Zhu Xiong's words shook many people. Although there was plenty of food in the dining hall, it had already been almost exhausted over the course of more than a month.

If it weren't for the rationing of food from the beginning, it would probably have already run out.

"Zhao Yimin, take a headcount and then start packing up."

"Yes, Brother Zhu."

Cao Yubao nodded and didn't stop Zhao Yimin's actions. As Zhu Xiong said, going to a safe camp was a good thing.

"Xiao Zhou, cooperate with them."

"Yes, teacher."

A middle-aged doctor stood up and began directing the survivors to assist Zhao Yimin with the headcount and call down the other survivors from the upper floors.

Su Han watched everyone's movements without interrupting, but suddenly noticed several children with pale faces in the crowd, the youngest not more than eight years old and the eldest only about thirteen or fourteen. It was quite a surprise.

"Are they patients?"

He turned to Cao Yubao and asked suddenly.

Cao Yubao was initially startled, then he nodded and said, "The majority of the children are patients. They are small and easier to carry... all saved by their parents' lives."

He paused, his tone turning somewhat somber.

The hospital had many patients, and the sudden apocalypse caught everyone by surprise.

Especially those in the inpatient department; very few managed to escape.

But it was a bit different for the children who were sick. Their parents were mostly with them, and if they hadn't turned into Meat Mountain Demons, the parents did everything they could to secure a chance at life for their children.

Therefore, there ended up being quite a few child patients here. Some still had their parents, some had become orphans.

"Are you the leader of the camp?"

Cao Yubao's gaze was fixed on the young man before him. Even after hearing about the children, he maintained a calm demeanor, which was somewhat perplexing.

"Yes, just call me Su Han," said Su Han,

He glanced at the crowd and then added, "It must have taken a lot of effort to save so many people, right?"

Cao Yubao said bitterly, "A lot of people died—my colleagues, my students, several of them."

He was able to become a central figure not just because he was slightly stronger but because he had saved many patients and taught many students, and he had prestige in the hospital.

"Moreover, the survival of the dining hall isn't just due to that reason."

Su Han was taken aback, then asked, "How so?"

Cao Yubao said, "There must be other monsters nearby that occasionally attack those outside. Their disturbances diverted the attention of the monsters, which is how we were able to survive until now."

He spoke earnestly, "If possible, we should leave here as soon as we can, or it will be troublesome if the monsters come."

Cao Yubao was genuinely offering advice with everyone's best interest in mind, but Su Han's gaze flickered with a different thought.

"How often do those monsters come, and do they fight with the Meat Mountain Demons that have a split in their chest? Who wins, who loses?"
