There was nothing else that was useful in these records, so Lin Fan stopped looking through them and began moving through the hospital once again.

He knew where he had to go, but the place that he had to go was also the place that was filled with the most ghosts. There were only two ways for him to make his way to his destination.

One was by using force and destroying all the ghosts in his way as he made his way there.

The other was by using something to lure the ghosts away from his destination, clearing a path for him to reach it.

But of course there were problems with both of these methods.

If he used force, he would have to fight his way through all the various ghosts and that would force him to consume all his life energy. He was certain that he would have to fight this Faust and some of the patients that were mentioned at the front desk before getting the doll that he needed.

Not to mention the fact that Lin Fan wasn't certain if he could keep the ghosts down. After all, back at the school, there had been an array that had been healing the ghosts that Lin Fan beat, so he couldn't clear out the waves chasing after them. If there was something similar here, that meant that there was no chance to use this force method.

As for luring them away, this was clearly the better of the two options since it was a method that was tried and tested, as well it would save Lin Fan quite a bit of trouble.

The only problem was that Lin Fan wasn't certain how strong the special patients that would be blocking his way would be. These people would definitely be stronger than normal ghosts if they were specifically mentioned by the trial.

Just ghosts that were in the peak Embryo Soul Realm would be fast enough to catch the rat puppets and if they were even stronger, there was a chance that they would be able to outrun the rabbit puppet. If that was the case, that would be bad since that was a special puppet that Lin Fan had worked hard to find and he wouldn't want to lose it like this.

But after debating it, Lin Fan decided that he would do a mix of both strategies.

Lin Fan released even more rat puppets to start luring all the ghosts that were in this wing away while started to move to the center of the hospital. As he continued along, he noticed that there were more and more ghosts that were wandering the halls, but they were still manageable since he had released more rats.

Unlike the school where a single rat was enough for several dozen kid ghosts, these ghosts all wandered around by themselves, so Brainy had to use more rats to lure them in before putting them into packs that it had created.

Doing this naturally meant that more time was taken since they had to lure in all the stragglers and put them into a pack, but this was definitely safer than leaving them behind.

Along the way, they also noticed that the ghosts they met were slowly becoming stronger.

The ones that they had encountered in the left wing were mainly in the low Embryo Soul Realm, with a few of them actually being in the peak Fragmented Soul Realm. Now that they had made their way into the center part of the hospital, the ghosts here were now in the low to mid Embryo Soul Realm.

While there hadn't been a high or peak Embryo Soul Realm ghost that had shown up yet, Lin Fan knew that it was only a matter of time.

He wasn't worried if they were high or peak Embryo Soul Realm since he would be able to deal with them. The only thing he had to worry about were the ghosts that were in the Child Soul Realm. Those were the ones that could pose a threat to him.

But then Lin Fan suddenly remembered what had happened in the principal's office back at the school and he couldn't help suddenly stopping.

Mo Ze Chen who had been following Lin Fan suddenly saw Lin Fan stop and he couldn't help asking, "Boss, what is it?"

Lin Fan was in thought for a bit, so he didn't say anything, but once he finished thinking, he waved his hand at Mo Ze Chen and said, "Follow me."

Mo Ze Chen was confused why Lin Fan had suddenly stopped and was now telling him to follow him, even though Mo Ze Chen had been following him the entire time. However, Mo Ze Chen was also slowly getting used to Lin Fan's quirks since he had been dealing with them the entire time. He knew that Lin Fan suddenly had these ideas from time to time, so the only thing he had to do was follow Lin Fan since most of the time those ideas were very good.

It was too bad that this time, that idea involved him and it wasn't involving him in a good way.

Lin Fan made his way through the center of the hospital, moving closer to the right wing, but he didn't get too close.

He combed the various halls like he was searching for something, but as they continued along, he wasn't able to find a single thing. That was until they came to this one department that was near the right wing.

This department was for electrotherapy, so it was a place that the mental patients were likely to have been brought to be treated.

Since that was the case, the ghosts here were actually stronger than the ones outside.

Most of the ghosts here were in the mid Embryo Soul Realm and there were a few ghosts that were in the high Embryo Soul Realm.

Lin Fan had Brainy use the rats to lead the mid Embryo Soul Realm ghosts away while also bringing the high Embryo Soul Realm ghosts towards them.

Mo Ze Chen was confused why Lin Fan had suddenly stopped moving after they reached this room, but then he heard the sounds around him and how they were getting closer and he couldn't help revealing a nervous look.

Then when there was a rat that suddenly appeared around the corner of the hall before a ghost followed it over to where they were, Mo Ze Chen couldn't help asking, "Boss, what is going on? Weren't you leading them all away from us? Why did it come here?"

Lin Fan didn't say anything, he just turned his wrist and made a white sword appear which he immediately threw to Mo Ze Chen.

Mo Ze Chen was surprised to have this white sword thrown at him, but he was still an expert in the Embryo Soul Realm, so he was able to smoothly catch this sword.

Even though he was able to catch it, he was still confused as to why Lin Fan had thrown it to him.

When Mo Ze Chen was about to look back at Lin Fan, he suddenly felt a push from behind him and he was pushed towards the ghost.

Mo Ze Chen turned to see Lin Fan pushing him and he immediately revealed a confused look, but he still wielded the sword that Lin Fan gave him as he charged forward at the ghost that the rat puppet was leading at them since he couldn't stop himself.

With a single slash, the sword cut right through the arm of the ghost and sent it flying.

It was by no means that the ghost was weak, since it was a ghost in the high Embryo Soul Realm with two different laws that it could combine and Mo Ze Chen was only in the low Embryo Soul Realm. It was just that the slash from Mo Ze Chen was too strong that the ghost couldn't resist at all.

Mo Ze Chen knew that he wasn't this strong, so he couldn't help looking down at the sword that Lin Fan gave him. When he looked closely, he found that the laws surrounding this weapon weren't normal. At the very least, they were far beyond what he could release at his realm, which meant that this weapon…

Mo Ze Chen looked back at Lin Fan with a look of gratitude, but Lin Fan didn't look back at him at all. Rather, Lin Fan had been watching the ghost the entire time.

Even though it had its arm cut off, the ghost still wasn't dissipating just yet and it was still twitching on the ground.

With Lin Fan watching it, the arm of the ghost suddenly moved back to where it had been cut off and almost as if there were tentacles coming out, the flesh slowly reconnected the arm until it was a part of the body once again.

After a few more seconds, the arm was completely reattached and the ghost used it to push itself up again.

Once it was up, it looked right at Mo Ze Chen with a glare that was filled with hatred before charging out at Mo Ze Chen again.

Mo Ze Chen also suddenly noticed that something was off, but he reacted too late since the ghost was already charging right at him.

When Mo Ze Chen had turned around, the ghost was almost in front of him with its hand out in the form of a claw, flying towards Mo Ze Chen.
