Chapter 629: Chapter 629: Treatment in the Isolation Ward

They cleared it?!

Upon descending, Zheng Liang and the others were stunned for a moment, but seeing the swarm of "zombies" coming towards them, they immediately realized that climbing upstairs was no longer an option. It didn’t matter whether these people had been cannibal players before, now they might all resort to cannibalism!

"Let’s fight for it!" Zheng Liang launched a kick, flipping over the cannibal player biting Gu Yu, and then he dashed to the door and frantically rubbed it with his sleeve, "God bless!"

Wen Xuelin and Guan Zuhong were behind him. Seeing his desperate act, they couldn’t help but feel despondent, but then they watched him disappear from where he was standing. They were dumbstruck for a moment, then hurriedly joined in, wishing they could use their own bodies to clean off the glass door!

The two of them successfully cleared the level.

"We cleared it! We really cleared it!" Once outside, Wen Xuelin rushed to embrace Gu Yu, "Sister Gu Yu, you are so amazing!"

Gu Yu patted her back and then turned to Zheng Liang, who was sitting on the ground, "Are you okay?"

Zheng Liang shook his head as he got up, patted his butt, and laughed, "I really didn’t expect the way to clear the level would be so simple."

"It’s just luck." Gu Yu’s face was full of relief as she looked into the dense fog ahead and said, "Move back to the station; we don’t know when this instance will end."

"I never want to go back to that hellish place again," Zheng Liang said, taking out a prop gun. "Let’s go find the Special Defense Department!"

The members of the Special Defense Department were nearby, and they surrounded them before they could walk out, "Hands up!"

"We are from the Chun Yu Association, we have something to say to your chief. Is Chief Wu here?" Zheng Liang shouted.

Nie Xuan was waiting for them, so he instructed someone to take them to the temporary command post.

Once there, Zheng Liang eagerly narrated the situation within the instance and added, "This is a rare opportunity. I estimate not many of the players who went in there will come out alive, and even if they do, they’re likely to have mental issues."

Nie Xuan smiled, "The Special Defense Department has been waiting near the instance for a long time. So far, apart from a brother and sister, only a few of you have come out alive. Where’s Xu Huo?"

"Brother Xu hasn’t come out yet?" Guan Zuhong said in surprise. "We didn’t see him at the hospital today; we thought he had cleared the level last night."

"It’s been less than three hours since the instance appeared," Nie Xuan said.

"I actually cleared it before Xu Huo?" Zheng Liang was pleasantly surprised. "I thought he was all talk."

Gu Yu gave him a glare and said to Nie Xuan, "He was indeed in the instance. We are not sure if he came out or not. It’s also possible that he went deep into the hospital. His game score has always been very high, probably exploring the instance."

Nie Xuan did not comment but asked, "Why did you dress up like Xu Huo and lure people into the instance?"

"That wasn’t our original plan," Gu Yu said. "The planned area of our operation wasn’t in this part of the instance. It was because Xu Huo accidentally ran into the instance that we went there, and we didn’t anticipate it would be this fierce."

Nie Xuan asked a few more questions, all of which Gu Yu answered. They were no longer needed, and he offered to send them off in a car.

Gu Yu refused, and after they left the temporary command center, she whispered to Zheng Liang and a few others, "If the Special Defense Department asks again, all of you have to say that Xu Huo’s tracking signal disappeared at the entrance to the instance, and that we accidentally entered the instance while rushing to his aid."

In fact, they went there because they had received a clear signal. Xu Huo definitely sent out the signal before entering the instance. This posed a question—if he had accidentally stumbled into the instance, it would have been very difficult to send out the signal in an instant, especially since one doesn’t feel anything upon just entering a random instance; however, if he had discovered the instance beforehand, he could have lured the players in without having to enter the instance himself.

Therefore, whether he had somehow found out about this instance in advance, or had some other purpose for entering the instance, they all had to keep it a secret.

"I think that Chief Nie’s wording was a bit off," Zheng Liang was not dull; compared to the instance, Nie Xuan seemed to be more concerned about Xu Huo.

"I’ve heard of this Nie Xuan." Guan Zuhong said, "He’s quite a figure. He’s one of the earliest players in the Special Defense Department to be promoted to Level D. He could probably rank in the top few in Zone 014."

The few of them didn’t know much about the inside story, but they also felt that Xu Huo had come prepared and that the Special Defense Department must be very interested in his secrets.

"Why don’t we just go and wait near the instance?" Wen Xuelin suggested. "When he comes out, we’ll inform him of this right away."

"You guys go." Gu Yu said, "I’m going to find Li Chun. Xu Huo has been in the game for so long and has never teamed up with any player. Li Chun has always been by his side and is certainly smarter than us. I’ll get her to help."

When they took separate actions, Xu Huo had already confined those ten foreign players in the isolation ward of Building 3.

Those who could lurk in another country for years or even decades were not simple characters, and it was more difficult for such people to succumb to hallucinations, so he had to resort to some methods to bring them over.

The first one he chose was the youngest among them, a brown-haired player.

Inside the old and mottled sickroom, the player tied to a standing bed stared with bloodshot eyes at the person sitting in front of him. He didn’t have anything stuffed in his mouth, but his lips were tightly shut, seemingly unwilling to communicate with anyone.

Xu Huo tapped on the medical record, "You haven’t slept for three days and nights. Do you feel tired?"

The brown-haired player showed no reaction. Xu Huo waited for three seconds before standing up, picking up a syringe and a bottle of potion from the adjacent surgical table, "If you keep this up, your body won’t be able to take it. I’ll give you an injection of nutritive substance."

The brown-haired player’s eyes trembled as he watched the object in Xu Huo’s hand, because the glass vial was labeled "Muscle Relaxant."

Xu Huo filled the syringe in front of him, then approached and injected it directly into the player’s arm through his clothes, "The hospital has strict rules about the use of drugs. Aside from the most basic medications, I can’t get you anything else. Rest assured, although this medicine is newly developed, it is harmless to the body and doesn’t damage nerves."

The brown-haired player was not listening to what he was saying at all, his eyes were just slanted towards the syringe, and as the potion was fully injected, his body involuntarily relaxed.

Xu Huo casually threw the syringe into the trash can and returned to his seat, tapping the medical record again. When he regained the player’s attention, he said, "I am your treating physician. You can tell me anything you want. It helps your condition to express your feelings."

Then he changed the subject abruptly. "When you were admitted, you said you were from Country Y, but according to the records, your parents have never left Jing City. You grew up here, and you went to university here. Do you remember your own name? Is it Hao Zheng?"

"I am not Hao Zheng; my name is David Pierce," the brown-haired player began to speak slowly.

Xu Huo placed a mirror in front of him, "Take a look at the color of your hair and pupils."

The brown-haired player stared at the black-haired, black-eyed person in the mirror for a few seconds, then let out a hysterical scream, "That’s not me!!!"
