Chapter 425: 425: C-level (Big Chapter for Monthly Tickets)

Bright red blood flowed down the clean floor to everyone’s feet.

All eyes were blankly fixed on He Ao, as everything that had just happened was too fast for them to react.

"Murder!"

Someone shouted, though it wasn’t clear who.

The original doctors and nurses instantly panicked and rushed toward the exit.

"According to Federation law, this is illegal detention and attempted murder, I have the right to self-defense..."

He Ao looked at the people and began to explain, but no one was listening.

The doctors and nurses were frantically jostling each other to squeeze through the narrow door.

It seemed they were indeed real doctors and nurses...

Just now, the few that made a move were merely armed personnel dressed in nurse uniforms.

He Ao thought for a moment and marked the doctor using his Super Memory ability.

So what is this place, an underground organ trade location?

No, that can’t be right.

In Pete’s memories, he had seen many ordinary-appearing ’volunteers’ leave the Research Institute safe and sound, and although there were no smiles on their faces, there was no panic either, as if the institute was secure and had no problems.

Moreover, some of them had clearly been there many times before and were very familiar with the security and staff members.

If they had truly been forced to have their organs taken, they wouldn’t have been so composed.

This was also one of the reasons that prompted Pete to sign the agreement.

Of course, it’s possible that those people were all ’plants.’

He Ao casually pulled off his coat, took a shirt from the rack to put on, and then draped his coat back on.

His movements were quick, and he continued to move forward rapidly while dressing.

As he walked by, the people ahead pushed even more desperately to get out, and in no time, they had all squeezed through.

Someone had triggered the alarm, and the entire operating room was instantly filled with the ringing of the alarm bell.

The piercing alarm resounded in He Ao’s ears.

He Ao did not immediately follow them out but instead turned off Super Memory and went back to the vicinity of the operating table.

The operating room had been sterilized to some extent, but it was clear that the sterilization was not thorough, indicating that the person ’initiating’ the operation didn’t care much about the life of those being operated on.

Next to the operating table were two silver metal boxes, now spotted with blood.

One of the boxes was open, neatly packed with electronic syringes.

He Ao picked up one, his gaze scanning the simple annotation on it: ’General Anesthesia Injection,’ no brand identification, no introduction to the medication, looking as though it had been pulled from a pharmaceutical factory, hastily labeled, and brought over.

General anesthesia is a very dangerous procedure, and even though the medication in Copy World is exceptionally advanced and the operation greatly simplified, there are still many cases of death due to general anesthesia.

Thus, the anesthetist is crucially important.

In private hospitals, the cost of an anesthetist often accounts for one of the most expensive charges on the bill.

And this ’operating room’ had someone who looked like a thug serving as the anesthetist.

This ’Research Institute’ really didn’t care about the lives of those lying on the operating table at all.

He Ao opened the other box.

This box was a cold storage container, and as soon as He Ao opened it, a chill rushed out, exposing the contents inside to his view.

It was an oval-shaped silver metal container box, about eight centimeters long, four centimeters wide, and three to four centimeters thick.

He Ao picked up the container box and discovered that the silver metal it was made from was soft, easily deformed by a slight force, yet it could retain its shape fairly well after being altered.

The box had no lock.

He Ao reached out and opened the box, and inside lay a mini ’kidney’ only about half the size of a palm.

He Ao subconsciously touched his waist and abdomen.

There were no scars.

The kidney was still there.

It shouldn’t be his kidney.

He Ao quickly closed the box and put it back, the whole process exceptionally fast.

This box only contained this one case; it seemed like it was prepared specifically for him.

Or rather, it was prepared for the ’volunteer’ who would ’come’ to this operating room.

But inside the box was a carefully concealed kidney that clearly didn’t belong to He Ao.

Either the kidney came from the person before and wasn’t taken away, left behind here,

or this didn’t match the rigorous procedures of the Research Institute since Pete had come in. A fresh kidney had a very short window of viability and needed to be transferred quickly.

Moreover, if the Research Institute wanted He Ao’s, or rather ’Pete’s,’ kidney, they should have prepared another case to hold the kidney, but in reality, there was only one case here.

So there was another possibility...

The content of this box was meant for ’Pete.’

The purpose of this surgery wasn’t to remove a kidney, but to give the ’volunteer’ an extra kidney?

...

The situation was becoming more and more abnormal.

Originally He Ao thought this was just an organ trafficking organization disguised as a research institute, but now it seemed to be much more complicated.

He Ao looked around for new clues and, finding none, took out his smart wristband from his coat and put it on.

However, there was no signal for this smart wristband here.

It was at this moment that several fully armed security personnel wearing light exoskeleton mechanical armors rushed in.

Each of them was holding a small laser gun, and upon seeing He Ao, they shot at him without saying a word.

But as their fingers pulled the triggers, a phantom flashed past them.

Following that, the security officer standing farthest in heard a sharp metallic sound of a short dagger being drawn from its metal sheath at his waist.

He saw the shadow pull out his standard-issue short dagger in an instant, followed by a flash of the silver blade.

He heard a sharp cutting noise as a metal neck guard on his throat was sliced open.

The next second, his vision rapidly receded, and he saw his own body, along with the man in a black coat standing next to him.

Bright red blood sprayed out from the gaping knife wound.

Then, the other security personnel met the same fate, their heads enclosed in metal helmets falling on the metal floor with a crisp sound.

Pff——

One by one, the bodies thudded to the ground.

And at this moment, He Ao had already walked past them, crossing over their bodies.

Bright red blood splattered on his seemingly honest and naive face, creating a disturbing contrast.

By now, the silver corridor outside the door was filled with fully armed security personnel.

Laser guns, Gauss Pistols, light exoskeleton mechanical armor

The gear of these security personnel was even better than that of some Federal Bureau of Investigation agents.

They stood tall and proud, blocking the corridor naturally, cutting off He Ao’s path.

They looked like some kind of mercenaries.

These mercenaries, once equipped, could fight toe-to-toe with a C-level Transcendent.

He Ao stared at the fully armed mercenaries in front of him.

Streams of fresh blood trickled down the blade of the short dagger in his hand

This mission, was it so thrilling from the start?

He Ao activated his Super Memory and calmly watched the mercenaries opposite him as he twirled the blade of his short knife in his hand, turning the blade to point backwards.

Drip-drop

That was the sound of fresh blood hitting the floor.

Those mercenaries didn’t hesitate for a moment, they instantly retreated and opened fire.

Obviously, they weren’t greenhorns who’d never seen blood before, and they might even have fought against Transcendents or exotic beasts.

But they were still too slow.

Gleaming laser cannons struck the corridor, melting the sturdy metal into a fiery red liquid.

And in that instant, a silver flash of the knife passed through everyone in the blink of an eye, followed by the splatter of blood onto everyone’s cheeks.

Bang, bang, bang...

Those were the sounds of mechanical armors falling and hitting the ground.

The mercenary standing at the back with his laser gun aimed at the sky, responsible for firing blanks, widened his eyes in shock at the sight before him.

His half-cheek was splattered with bright red blood, and a hazy black shadow covered the other half of his face.

In the pitch-black pupil, the shadow grew larger and larger, getting closer.

He tried hard to lower the muzzle, but it was all too late.

The short knife with the curled blade was thrust in from his left side, under the ribs, severing his lung lobe and piercing his heart.

He Ao released the knife handle and reached to the waist of the mercenary, pulling off his short knife.

At that moment, he started to miss the silver short sword of Regit.

Bang—

The heavy body fell to the ground, making a crisp sound.

This was the last mercenary of the group. Their bodies were strewn haphazardly behind him, in the spread-out corridor, piled into steps.

He Ao lifted his head and glanced ahead.

New mercenaries were gathering at the end of the hallway.

At the very front was a young-looking man who glanced at the bodies behind He Ao and swallowed saliva.

"I’ll say it again,"

He Ao turned off his Super Memory, lowered his head, took a half-smoked pack of cigarettes from his coat pocket, and flicked it lightly, bouncing a brand-new cigarette out.

He brought the cigarette to his lips, slowly biting down, then put the pack back, and pulled out an electronic lighter from another pocket, slid the protective cover open, and a fiery red glow appeared,

"This is illegal detention."

His actions were slow; the heating filament of the lighter ignited faint flickering sparks, and the rising smoke hovered in front of his cheeks.

The fully armed mercenaries watched his every move in terror and trembling, not daring to shift in the slightest.

He Ao put away the lighter, the other hand holding the short knife, and walked step by step forward.

And as he moved, the mercenaries slowly retreated, trembling as they watched him.

The elevator to which Pete descended was located inside the corridor, not too far from the ’surgical room’.

He Ao quickly reached the elevator.

He slowly pressed the button in front of the elevator.

No response.

He closely inspected the area around the button and noticed a card swipe icon next to it, with a small display beside the icon.

His gaze swept the mercenaries around, "Could someone please swipe their card for me?"

Everyone looked at him, they dared not attack, but at this moment, they also dared not step forward either.

He Ao’s gaze settled on the young mercenary closest to him.

Under the oppressive stare, the young mercenary trembled and stood out, swiping his card in front of the elevator.

Then, under He Ao’s gaze, he chose the first floor from the hidden floor options that popped up after the card swipe.

Drip—

The elevator doors began to open.

"Thank you."

He Ao politely expressed his gratitude and stepped into the elevator.

The mercenary wanted to subconsciously wave his bracelet to indicate it was unnecessary, but then felt something was off; his motion froze mid-air.

The elevator doors slowly closed.

He Ao felt as though he was in a state of increased gravity, indicating that the elevator was ascending.

Clamping a cigarette between his lips, he glanced at the hidden surveillance camera in the corner of the elevator and remained silent.

A strong sense of weakness was enveloping him, almost causing him to collapse, but he stood motionless, unaffected by any disruptions.

When Super Memory was still D-level, using it had no side effects, but after entering C-level, the moment Super Memory shut off, he could clearly feel his body’s energy was significantly weaker than before.

Perhaps this was one of the reasons why the Copy World divided the Transcendent realms between D and C into lower three grades and upper three grades.

After reaching C-level, one becomes a true Transcendent life form in a certain sense, beginning to possess some mystical properties, and their power is not easily bearable by ordinary people.

He needed to find a way to enhance his physical fitness.

Drip—

With a soft sound, the elevator stopped, and the doors slowly opened.

What appeared before He Ao was not the lobby on the first floor but an expansive balcony.

He Ao looked up and could see the sky concealed by neon lights.

As long as it was going up, there was no problem.

It saved him the time it would take to dismantle the elevator and then climb up the elevator shaft.

He glanced at the smart bracelet on his wrist – still no signal.

It must be some kind of signal jamming device.

He shook his head and walked out of the elevator.

This seemed to be the rooftop of the Research Institute; looking up, he could see the tall buildings around him.

However, there were not many of these buildings, scattered unevenly in the vicinity.

Limen City was not large, but it was also not densely populated; there was no shortage of land resources like in Dawn City, and most of the towering skyscrapers were commercial office buildings.

The most dazzling building in the city was located at the very center—the Stars Pharma Medical Building.

It was the branch office of Stars Pharma in Limen City and also the tallest building in the city.

"Who sent you?"

While He Ao leisurely enjoyed the scenery around him, a tall man emerged from the darkness.

Naturally, He Ao had not reached the top floor on his own, but had been ’delivered’ here.

The man watched He Ao with a cold gaze, "If you speak truthfully, I might consider letting you die less painfully."

He Ao’s gaze returned to the man before him.

Divine Sense gathered in his eyes.

Streams of energy flowing through the man’s body appeared in He Ao’s field of vision.

This level of energy...

C-level.

"Alright, since you’re not willing to talk, I won’t force you," the man opposite him cracked his neck, "I’ll make you want to speak."

He started to walk towards He Ao step by step,

"Your aura is weak, I don’t know how you came into contact with a bit of the Transcendent world, but don’t think that just because you have a hint of Transcendent power, you’re invincible. Let me show you what the real mystic world is like."

In a flash, his figure turned into a streak of light,
