After closing the hole to the sewers, Nick walked over to Wyntor.
At this moment, Wyntor was standing near the edge of the warehouse below something that looked like a shower.
The shower head was spewing Cleansing Liquid onto Wyntor, getting rid of all the impurities and the stench.
Such a cleansing shower cost a couple thousand credits, and taking a shower cost around 50 credits, which made the shower quite expensive for normal people.
But as a Zephyx Manufacturer, Dark Dream easily had enough funds for something like this.
A cleansing shower counted amongst the most basic equipment for a Zephyx Manufacturer since it was relatively cheap while also dealing with many risks.
A clean environment was important.
Wyntor deactivated the shower and walked out. Fortunately, one didn't need to take off their clothing for the cleansing shower.
Nick walked past Wyntor and went under the shower himself.
About two minutes later, Nick came out again, and he quickly saw Wyntor dumping a tank of Cleansing Liquid onto the ground.
In an instant, everything began to sizzle, but about 20 seconds later, it stopped.
All the impurities of the ground had been cleaned, but there was still Cleansing Liquid left.
"I'll deal with this," Wyntor said as he grabbed a broom, pushing the remaining Cleansing Liquid towards dirty spots on the ground. "You go deal with the Screaming Coffin."
"Sure," Nick answered, not surprised that Wyntor was essentially cleaning the floor of the warehouse as the CEO.
Usually, this would be Pator's job, but since nobody was allowed to know about what was going on, Wyntor did it himself.
Nick walked over to the corpse he had retrieved and lifted it.
The corpse was leaving some trails of blood and grime, but Nick didn't mind.
Wyntor would deal with it.
A moment later, Nick opened the door to the Screaming Coffin's Containment Unit and walked in with the corpse.
After entering, Nick saw the Screaming Coffin shaking a bit while tiny pieces of white bandages came out of its edges.
'It has already started recovering,' Nick thought as he looked at the Screaming Coffin.
Nick slowly walked up to the Screaming Coffin and dumped the corpse beside it.
'Now, time to wait,' Nick thought as he looked at the Screaming Coffin.
The next moment, Nick sat down at the far corner, watching.
Nick wanted to see how the Screaming Coffin would consume the corpse.
Additionally, Nick wanted to know how long it would take for the Screaming Coffin to digest the corpse and become active again.
Time passed.
Over the next hour, the bandages grew by about ten centimeters, and the Screaming Coffin was almost able to move again.
An hour later, the Screaming Coffin could finally move again, but it was very slow.
It moved using its bandage-like legs.
In the water, it would probably just slide across the ground, but on land, it had to be careful.
The first thing the Screaming Coffin did was to look around the Containment Unit.
It was almost like an ant under a small glass, trying to climb up all the walls but failing.
Nick was just watching.
Based on what he was seeing, the Screaming Coffin didn't have any kind of perception since it was slowly crawling towards him while also trying to climb the walls.
When the Screaming Coffin's bandage touched Nick's hand, it retreated relatively quickly.
Quickly for the Screaming Coffin, which wasn't very fast by human standards.
While retreating, it still tried to climb the walls, and eventually, it ran around the entire room, reaching Nick's other side.
This time, it didn't immediately retreat.
Its bandages slowly touched Nick's hand and flowed over them.
The next moment, the Screaming Coffin used its white bandages to do something surprising.
With a lot of difficulties, it managed to actually stand up.
At that moment, Nick noticed that the Screaming Coffin was actually quite huge.
It was over two meters tall and over 80 centimeters wide.
The next moment…
AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!
The lid slowly slid open and fell to the side as the screams of the damned filled the Containment Unit.
Since it wasn't underwater this time, the screams were many times louder.
Nick actually felt pressure appear in his head due to the extremely loud screams.
Then, the coffin fell forward.
BANG!
And hit the ground.
Nick simply stepped to the side.
Obviously, the Screaming Coffin had tried to eat Nick just now, but since it didn't have its long bandages, it just tried to fall on top of him with its open maw.
When the opening of the coffin hit the ground, the screams immediately vanished.
The next moment, the Screaming Coffin pushed itself onto its back, and the loud screams returned.
Surprisingly, the first thing the Screaming Coffin did after that was to very quickly go to its lid to put it back on.
'Interesting,' Nick thought. 'It went faster to its lid than when it fled from me the first time it touched me in here. I guess the lid is extremely important to it.'
'Maybe it uses up a considerable amount of Zephyx while its lid is off?' Nick thought as he scratched his chin in thought.
The Screaming Coffin quickly put the lid back on, after which it slowed down considerably.
Then, it started to slowly crawl around the Containment Unit again.
When Nick saw that, he sighed in annoyance and stood up.
Nick walked over to the corpse in the middle of the Containment Unit and grabbed the corpse.
Then, he dumped the corpse into the Screaming Coffin's path.
After a bit, the Screaming Coffin touched the corpse.
Its white bandages touched it in many places, and eventually, the Screaming Coffin's lid opened again.
'It's not standing up this time,' Nick thought. 'That probably means it can tell that this human is actually dead.'
Sure enough, its short white bandages wound around the corpse as best as they could, and a couple of seconds later, the corpse was pulled into the open coffin.
With interest, Nick saw the corpse completely vanish.
It was like the corpse had entered a completely separate, dark dimension.
Another surprising thing was that the screams became very distant and quiet with the corpse inside.
The Screaming Coffin quickly put its lid back on.
And then…
Nothing.
It just lay there.
Doing nothing.
