"No, and she is my friend." Marne replied.

"Aren't you used to treating the weak as a product?" She shrugged, "That's right, you've just arrived here, but since you don't want to hand you or her to me..."

Instead of directly asking the price code, Marx asked:

"Before this, I want to understand the specific situation of the underground nine floors and what exactly is the test?"

She nodded openly, without any intention of concealing it.

"Of course, then I'll just talk about the situation you're facing.

"Let's go further, when Victor Sanatorium was just established, it was about a hundred years ago, but for us, it was already a thousand years ago.

"The sanitary center has various mysterious forces that are difficult to understand, including the thirty-two rules set by Victor, of which twenty-one of them seem to have no power, nine will bring violators here, and the cost of the remaining two is unknown.

"And all prisoners brought here will suffer torture called beastization.

"When any harm to prisoners—both physically and mentally, will cause their bodies and spirits to be torn off, and the hospital will then stuff it into its original position with something worse.

“In this process, prisoners not only suffer from continuous destruction of their rationality, but then the dark side of these personalities is excavated, but they are also 'gived' power to harm others.

"The first beast may have been born in loneliness, but the next step is to fight each other endlessly. Each prisoner who just entered here faces the most chaotic wilderness, full of bloodthirsty monsters, and their ultimate fate is also added.

“Until hundreds of years ago, the emergence of pioneers.

"No one remembers his name now, but the pioneers drove the crazy beasts to the ninth level and proposed ways to eat carnivorous rituals, self-torture, and balance controllable madness and beastization.

"Even if you are not injured, the beast will take advantage of your strong sorrow or pain, so if he did not find the method, the current gathering place would not be able to maintain.

"Similarly, he declared that only the purest beasts without any beastization and the purest beasts can return to the real world through the underground layer, but he himself is no longer the pure one.

"The pioneers therefore finally decided to look for other ways to leave and left the gathering place of humans he built. No one has ever seen him again, maybe he really left, or maybe he has become a crazy beast."

This is where the method of leaving comes from a powerful prisoner, and he also created order here, and obviously the current scene was not what Victor wanted to create here.

But if you think about it carefully, their way of fighting beastization seems to be another kind of madness.

She continued:

"The next gathering place fell apart and became several different forces, and as time evolved, it gradually became the current situation.

"The ninth floor is the territory of the mad beasts. Here only wild beasts and pure ones can reproduce. Therefore, the former was difficult to be completely eliminated hundreds of years ago. The pioneers drove them all to the ninth floor, allowing these monsters to fight each other and reduce the number of them."

"The eighth floor is full of scavengers. They used to be the weakest group in the entire underground, so they were driven to the closest place to the ninth floor and were attacked by crazy beasts that flowed out from time to time, but this is a hospital and there is no garbage for them to pick up.

"They are the beasts they pick up. As time goes by, they are all good at fighting and have become a force that cannot be underestimated under the leadership of their chief.

"When the pioneers were still alive, the sixth level cannibalism created a secret ritual that could directly eat people into crazy beasts. Normally, because the more damage is, the stronger the power is, we can only stop the carnivorous ritual before a certain stage.

“When I first came, they were on their territory, and they ate my hands, so I had some holidays with their rulers.

"The sixth floor is the territory of the Crazy Gang. They are a group of complete madmen who pursue the most disgusting and dirty lifestyle. Almost no newcomers who fall into their hands are adults. I am not referring to beastly transformation.

"But thirty years ago, I didn't know why the sixth floor could be entered again, and no one knew the fate of the Crazy Gang, but think about it, this is Victor's sanatorium, and nothing happened.

"The fifth level of asceticism is the most peaceful force. They do not advocate any harmful ways, but fight against the beastly nature of their hearts through self-harm. They also firmly believe that the pioneers will eventually return here, and it is said that they have some inside information.

"But I want to say that they are just using this lie to comfort themselves.

"The fourth floor is the territory of the Guards. When the pioneers left hundreds of years ago, a group of soldiers loyal to him were stationed on the fourth floor and waiting for their leaders to return, but it was obvious that they did not wait.

"After hundreds of years, the current Guards no longer believed in the delusions of the past, but the skills of fighting were passed down by them, and discipline and loyalty were their main ways to maintain themselves.

"And the second layer also has its own origins. After the small kingdom of the pioneers collapsed, the most important members under him quickly occupied the place, and only the tested strong men were allowed to join them. The purpose of this group of bastards was also very simple - that is, the place closest to the passage.

"And as for the third floor, it's a bit special..."

She said confidently:

"A hundred years ago, the subordinates of the second-level members were controlled, but they were accidentally destroyed. By chance, I became the ruler of the tribe and advocated the use of blood and honor to fight against animality. Since I was unexpectedly promoted, I was actually the weakest of the rulers.

"After the other rulers eliminated some defects, they were all legendary Ⅲ-level powerhouses on the ground, and I was the only one with Ⅱ-level powerhouses.

"And this is what I want to tell you, the other rulers who have given the test are much more dangerous than me. Even if you can pass, you will not be able to keep your body pure. Then you will not be able to leave after going to the second floor of the underground.

"How about you stay with me?"

After saying so much, the tribe queen's purpose is to convince him to stay here.

Maren shook his head:

"Sorry, but I have a reason to go to the second floor."

The other party didn't know that he actually didn't need to remain pure, because there was a second exit on the second floor of the underground - an employee passage that only he could find.
