Chapter 12 – Goddess of the Night


Only the first door of the six wards can be opened.

Is it only this one that is set to “can be opened”, or is it like the door that has been knocked for five years, and his current power can only open the first door?

After knocking on the door for five years, Lin Qiye opened his eyes and his spiritual perception enhanced, allowing him to open the door and enter the hospital.

For the second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth wards, does he need to enhance his own strength before he can open them?

Lin Qiye is not sure, and he doesn’t have time to worry about these things now.

Because in front of him, the ward door that was once covered in seals is slowly opening.

The space in the ward is not large, and the lighting is dim. In the center of the ward, there is a chair with a woman wearing a black dress made of stardust sitting on it, staring blankly ahead.

Apart from this person and the chair, there is nothing else in the dim room.

Lin Qiye cautiously walks to the door, thinks for a moment, and a very official smile appears on his face as he waves to the woman inside.

“Hello, I am Lin Qiye.”

No matter who she is, it’s always polite to be polite. As the saying goes, don’t bite the hand that feeds you. Even if she is a deity, she shouldn’t give him a hard time if he is polite.

However, Lin Qiye’s smile froze outside. The woman in black clothes remained motionless like a statue.

Lin Qiye grits his teeth and walks directly into the room.

Just as he enters the room, rows of text suddenly appear on the wall behind the woman in black.

Ward No. 1.

Patient: Nyx

Mission: Help Nyx treat her mental illness. After the treatment progress reaches the specified values (1%, 50%, 100%), you can randomly obtain some of Nyx’s abilities.

Current treatment progress: 0%

“Nyx?” Lin Qiye takes a deep breath after reading the text on the wall!

Although he doesn’t understand mythology very well, he has heard of Nyx, the Goddess of the Night, as one of the five primordial gods in ancient Greek mythology.

She is one of the top gods in the mythological system!

So, the woman in front of him, who looks dull, is the famous Goddess of the Night?

With a cold and elegant temperament, perfect facial features, smooth black hair flowing down her back like a waterfall, and a black stardust dress as deep as the night, her fair skin is as delicate as snow on a mountain, ready to be broken with a gentle touch.

Although her eyes are lifeless, the aura she exudes is far beyond what humans can possess.

Even the empresses in history cannot be compared to her.

Nyx, she is a deity and an empress.

The empress of the night!

Lin Qiye touches his chin and carefully observes Nyx up close. He has seen gods with his own eyes, and compared to the Seraph on the moon, he always feels that Nyx is missing something.

Divinity? Power? Authority?

Or all of them?

Lin Qiye doesn’t know, but he can guess that Nyx’s current condition is related to her illness.

But you have to know, she is a deity!

One of the top gods in mythology!

How could she be sick?

Is her illness natural or… caused by someone?

If it is natural, Lin Qiye doesn’t quite believe it, but if it is caused by someone… he doesn’t know what kind of existence can make the Goddess of the Night sick.

And it’s a mental illness.

According to the text on the wall, Lin Qiye now needs to try to help Nyx with her illness, but what kind of illness does she have?

As a former “mental patient,” Lin Qiye knows a little about mental illnesses. Generally speaking, they can be divided into depression, OCD, schizophrenia, delusion, and so on.

To treat Nyx, he first needs to determine what illness she has.

Lin Qiye ponders for a moment, squats in front of Nyx, and waves his hand in front of her eyes.

“Can you hear me?” Lin Qiye whispers in Nyx’s ear.

Suddenly, Nyx’s body trembles, startling Lin Qiye, who instinctively takes a few steps back!

Then, Nyx’s head stiffly turns towards Lin Qiye, and her blank eyes stare straight at him!

Lin Qiye swallows nervously and doesn’t dare to move.

One second, two seconds, three seconds…

Just when Lin Qiye’s scalp starts to tingle from Nyx’s stare, her gaze changes.

From blank to puzzled,

From puzzled to shocked,

From shocked to teary-eyed!

Nyx’s body trembles slightly, tears swirling in her eyes, and her lips struggle to open.

After choking for a long time, she hoarsely says:

“I finally found you… my child!!”

At this moment, Lin Qiye feels an electric current rushing from his feet to his brain, leaving his mind blank!

Her?

Me?

Child?

Huh??Lin Qiye truly couldn’t remember what his parents looked like, after all, they disappeared somewhere after giving birth to him and entrusting him to his aunt.

But…

His mother should, possibly, probably be a human.

Not the Goddess of the Night.

No, what if…

Wait a minute! How come this foreign Goddess of the Night speaks fluent Chinese?!

Oh right, this is my dream, it’s not strange that I can understand the language of the gods… Maybe this is brainwave signal transmission?

Just as Lin Qiye was lost in his thoughts, Nyx stood up. She spread her arms and staggered towards Lin Qiye!

She ran faster and faster, her expression becoming more and more excited!

At this moment, Lin Qiye’s mind was a complete mess. He subconsciously opened his arms, ready to embrace the Goddess of the Night!

However,

The Goddess of the Night ran past Lin Qiye,

And hugged the small vase on the windowsill behind Lin Qiye.

Nyx held the vase tightly, tears streaming down her face, “My child… you’re still alive, I finally found you!”

Lin Qiye: …???

Then, Nyx’s gaze fell on the chair she had been sitting on for who knows how long.

After a moment of shock,

She rushed forward, hugging the chair and the vase, crying again!

“Hypnos! My child, so you’re here too!!”

A bewildered Lin Qiye stood there like a statue, watching as Nyx claimed the vase, chair, wall, and air as her children, crying her heart out.

Lin Qiye: I think, I probably know what’s wrong with her…

It’s quite serious…

In the early morning, Lin Qiye woke up from his dream, looking at the bare ceiling, he sighed helplessly.

After spending a night with Nyx, Lin Qiye felt that he was not okay.

Just as he was about to get up, he suddenly gasped.

In his mind, The Deities’ Mental Hospital shrouded in mist was floating, and there seemed to be a close connection between him and the hospital.

Now he didn’t need to sleep, he could project his consciousness into the mental hospital at any time.

Is this the benefit of opening the door?… Lin Qiye tried to connect his consciousness to the mental hospital, and he could immediately sense everything happening in the hospital.

Of course, he still couldn’t probe into the five sealed wards.

At this moment, Nyx was in the yard, holding the vase and chair, talking to the air next to her, not knowing what she was saying.

Lin Qiye sat on the bed, rubbing his eyes in frustration:

“Cure, cure… I’m not a doctor, how can I help her…”

Suddenly, Lin Qiye’s eyes lit up, as if he had thought of something.

Lin Qiye’s eyes narrowed slightly, a smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.
