Beep, beep——!!

A shrill warning sound echoed in the Medical Research Institute. Red lights flashed. Everyone in the institute was stunned, and the institute immediately became busy and noisy.

"Abnormal brain waves detected in the patient!"

"Abnormal heart rate and blood pressure detected in the patient!"

"The energy index of the Forbidden Ruins has been detected to be rising sharply!"

"A large amount of mental fluctuations detected!"

"...He's waking up!"

Doctor Li walked quickly to the central screen and stared at the young man who was tied to the chair. His eyelids trembled at a high frequency and his brows were slightly wrinkled, as if he was about to open his eyes in the next moment.

"Is he finally waking up..." A look of surprise appeared in Doctor Li's eyes.

The alarm was turned off, the flashing lights stabilized, and all the researchers gathered in front of the screen, watching the picture nervously.

In the picture, the boy's head on the chair was slightly raised, and his eyelids, which had been trembling at a high frequency, suddenly became quiet.

The next moment, a pair of golden eyes slowly opened...

Buzz——!

The image on the screen began to fluctuate, like an old TV with signal interference. After flickering for a moment, it returned to normal.

"It was able to barely break through the suppression of the ruins-suppressing monument and allow the [Mortal God Realm] to affect the outside world... Is this the extremely dangerous ruins of Sequence 003?"

Doctor Li turned to look at the researcher beside him, "How is his condition?"

"Heart rate, blood pressure, brain waves, and mental fluctuations have all returned to normal. The state is stable and there is no abnormality, except..."

"Except what?"

"His mental strength is much stronger than before. The moment he woke up just now, he should have stepped from the Chi Realm into the Chuan Realm in one step."

Doctor Li nodded. "He has been maintaining the [Mortal God Realm] in his mind for the past year. After such long-term training, it is not surprising that he broke through the bottleneck of the realm in one go."

In the picture, Lin Qiye's eyes swept around calmly, and when he saw the restraints on his body, his brows frowned slightly.

Doctor Li straightened his clothes and walked towards the door to the room. "Open the door. I'll go in and talk to him."

…

Is this... a hospital?

Lin Qiye's eyes moved away from the restraints on his body, and when he saw the dazzling medical equipment around him, a hint of doubt emerged between his brows.

Moreover, this restraint looks so familiar...isn't this something only found in mental hospitals?

Was he taken to a mental hospital?

Lin Qiye put aside the doubts in his mind for the moment, a hint of night appeared in his eyes, and he wanted to open the Dark God Ruins and tear off the restraints on his body.

But his divine power seemed to be suppressed by something and could not be released from his body at all.

Lin Qiye was not unfamiliar with this feeling.

When he was training in the training camp, it was the same feeling when the instructors used forbidden objects to suppress their Forbidden Ruins. The difference was that in the training camp, Lin Qiye's Dark God Ruins could barely withstand the force of suppression and release it out of his body, but here he couldn't do it at all.

The suppression here and the suppression in the training camp are not at the same level at all.

Lin Qiye tried Merlin's [Phantom Demon Ruins] again, but was still unable to release it. Only [Mortal God Realm] could be slightly released from the body, surrounded by a little golden light.

Lin Qiye snapped his fingers, a faint golden light flashed, and the two restraints on his body were automatically untied.

He stood up from his seat, staggered and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, he grabbed the wall beside him in time to stabilize his body. He looked down at his legs, with a look of doubt in his eyes.

His legs had become atrophied and weak due to not exercising for a long time, and this body was much weaker than he remembered.

How long had he been asleep?

Just as Lin Qiye was puzzled, a light sound came from outside the door. The silver metal door slowly opened, and a familiar figure walked in.

Lin Qiye was slightly stunned when he saw that face, "Are you... Doctor Li?"

Doctor Li was surprised to see Lin Qiye untied his restraints by himself and stood up from the chair. He reached out to support Lin Qiye and said with a smile:

"It's me, sit down and talk."

Doctor Li helped Lin Qiye back to his chair, and Lin Qiye couldn't help but ask, "Where is this?"

"This is deep inside the fasting center, a mental hospital codenamed Sunshine." Doctor Li said truthfully.

"Fasting House..." Lin Qiye muttered these two words. He vaguely remembered Cao Yuan mentioned to him that this was a prison used to detain the owners of the Forbidden Ruins. How could he be here...

etc!

Lin Qiye raised his head and said in surprise: "Mental hospital?!"

"That's right."

"Why am I here?"

Doctor Li gave him a strange look and said, "You are in a mental hospital because you are mentally ill!"

Lin Qiye: ...

"I didn't..."

"I know you're going to say you're not sick. All mentally ill people say that." Doctor Li spoke seriously, took out a medical record from his pocket, and read it out in front of Lin Qiye:

"The patient, Lin Qiye, has been in a state of mental dissociation for a long time. His eyes are dull and his pupils are dilated. He is unable to respond to any external influences. He often talks to himself in the air and subconsciously opens the [Mortal God Realm] to change the surrounding environment. During the treatment, the Forbidden Ruins went berserk and destroyed medical equipment worth more than half a million...

Due to his severe delusional disorder and self-isolation, as well as the possible adverse impact on the outside world, he was classified as an extremely dangerous severe mental patient and received long-term treatment in our hospital.

Doctor Li read for two minutes, put away the case in his hand, looked at Lin Qiye's dull eyes and said:

"So, mentally ill Lin Qiye, do you have anything else to say?"

Lin Qiye was speechless.

He seemed to be telling the truth...

"Even if it was like this before... I'm fine now!" Lin Qiye said with a stiff upper lip.

"All mentally ill people say so." Doctor Li said calmly, "Whether you are well or not is not up to you. Severe mental illness can rarely be cured all of a sudden. It takes a process. You have just come out of the state of self-isolation, which does not mean that your mental problems are completely gone."

Lin Qiye: ...

"Then I..."

"You still need to be hospitalized for isolated observation until we confirm that your mental state has completely returned to normal, without any sequelae, and will not cause damage to the outside world while unconscious, then you can be discharged."

Lin Qiye had a vague ominous premonition in his heart, and he asked tentatively: "How long do we need to observe?"

Doctor Li glanced at him and replied calmly, "About a year or so."

Lin Qiye: ...
