"ah--"
The man lying on the metal bed let out a beast-like roar, his limbs, which were firmly fixed in place, were taut to the extreme, harder than rocks.
His forehead and neck were covered with menacing blue veins, and his eyes were bloodshot, making him look extremely frightening.
One roar after another rang out, but not a single sound came from the well-insulated injection room.
The researchers nearby observed the changes in the man's body and skillfully recorded something on the virtual computer.
Xia Linyin stood outside the glass wall of the injection room, quietly watching the scene inside.
Ada tapped the glass wall, shifting her gaze from the man undergoing the X-virus treatment and enduring excruciating pain to Charlene, and asked, "You'll be able to receive the X-virus injection in a couple of days. Are you scared?"
Xia Linyin shook her head, her gaze sweeping silently over the helmet in front of the quantum computer and the green syringe on the lab table.
Ada turned around, flicked a strand of blonde hair, twirled it with her fingers, and looked at the man who was roaring and howling, saying, "It'll hurt a lot."
Xia Linyin did not speak; her expression was calm.
Ada brought the ends of her hair to her nose, gently inhaled the fragrance, and then fell silent.
Two days later—
Xia Linyin lay on the metal bed, her gaze calm as she looked upwards, as the icy blue liquid slowly entered her body.
Half a minute later, a sharp pain shot through her body. Xia Linyin jerked her body, but the metal bracelets and anklets had already firmly bound her limbs, and the veins on her neck, which was tilted upwards, bulged out in a menacing manner.
The red veins spread rapidly in the pupils, like cracks in a glass wall.
Xia Linyin gritted her teeth, and blood trickled out. The X virus was taking effect in her body, and it felt like all the bones in her body were being shattered and reassembled. The pain was so intense that it drove her crazy and made her lose her mind!
My body temperature was soaring, my skin was red from the high body temperature, and my heart was pounding powerfully in my chest.
"Thump! Thump! Thump!"
Each strike was like the beating of a drum!
My heart is beating faster and faster!
It's so fast it's terrifying; it could explode in the next second!
Xia Linyin couldn't help but let out a roar, her features contorted in extreme pain, her eyes bloodshot like a trapped beast ready to devour its prey.
Finally, the extreme pain gradually subsided.
Xia Linyin lay there breathing heavily, her whole body drenched in sweat as if she had just been pulled out of the water.
Once Xia Linyin's rapid heartbeat subsided, the researchers removed the heavy bracelets and anklets from her body.
After drawing a vial of blood from Xia Linyin's body, the two researchers left the injection room with the box containing Xia Linyin's blood.
The remaining three researchers, one of whom processed the data that had just been recorded, and the other two who took Xia Linyin down to clean her body, tested her physical fitness, strength, speed, reaction time, and so on.
After being injected with the X virus, Xia Linyin clearly felt that her eyesight was better, her hearing was more acute, and her body seemed to be full of inexhaustible energy.
As it turned out, she was many times stronger than before she was injected with the X virus; she even dented a thick metal plate with a single punch.
The researchers made a small incision on her arm, and the wound healed within minutes.
After completing the test, the two researchers took Xia Linyin and her test results back to the injection room.
Just as the researchers were handing over the data, Xia Linyin suddenly knocked over the green injection on the table that could induce a deep sleep, and collapsed to the ground, convulsing.
The three researchers' expressions changed immediately. Just as they were about to approach Xia Linyin, Xia Linyin, who was lying on the ground, suddenly sprang up and injected the syringes she was holding into the bodies of the two researchers.
All of this happened in the blink of an eye. By the time the remaining experimenter reacted and prepared to pull the alarm, Xia Linyin had already grabbed his neck from behind with her arm.
"Don't do anything, or I'll kill you!"
The experimenter, almost suffocating from Xia Linyin's choking, nodded with a flushed face.
Xia Linyin pushed the lab technician forward, "Seal off the injection room first!"
The lab technicians sealed off the injection room from the inside as instructed, so that it would take some time for anyone outside to force their way in.
"Connect this computer to the main system, enter the X Project game, and find the game world with the strongest NPCs, which is also the one with the largest amount of character data!"
The experimenter placed his hand on the blue LED keyboard on the table, but hesitated and did not move.
Xia Linyin seemed to read his mind and softened her tone, saying, "Don't worry, I won't let you do anything to the game. I just want to try it out."
Her gentle voice carried a hint of comfort, like a spring breeze softly brushing against the lab technician's ear; yet her slender white fingers were gripping his neck, silently conveying a threat.
The experimenter typed rapidly on the keyboard. When the virtual computer in front of him connected to the game world requested by Xia Linyin, he hadn't even had time to breathe a sigh of relief when he felt a sharp pain in his neck and fainted.
Xia Linyin pushed the experimenter aside, sat down in front of the quantum computer, and eagerly put on the helmet that was constantly flashing blue light.
...
Blood……
Blood was everywhere...
The air was filled with the strong, pungent smell of blood and disinfectant.
The corridor was littered with corpses, doctors in white coats, nurses in nurse uniforms, and patients in blue and white striped suits.
Hospital……
She's in a hospital!
Blood flowed in streams, and the ground was already stained blackish-red with thick blood. Long streaks of blood could be seen when you lifted your foot.
The walls were covered in bloodstains, with sprayed blood and bloody handprints.
The bloody handprint left a long trail from top to bottom, revealing the struggle of its owner before death.
Screams and screams could be faintly heard coming from elsewhere.
Xia Linyin stepped over the corpse on the ground, and suddenly, she stepped on something sharp. At the same time—
"Hiss~"
"Hiss~"
She heard the sound of a snake flicking its tongue and the sound of its scales scraping against the ground.
A gigantic python, its body thicker than a water bucket, appeared in front of the corridor, its belly bulging high, making its body appear even larger and more terrifying.
It's obvious that they just ate.
However, upon seeing Xia Linyin, the giant python excitedly raised its head, hissed, and flicked its scarlet tongue, assuming an attack posture.
The two stared at each other. Xia Linyin caught a glimpse out of the corner of her eye that what she had just stepped on was a fang, as long as an adult's hand and as thick as a wrist at the base, stained with half-dried blood.
Xia Linyin stared at the fangs faintly visible in the giant python's mouth and thought of the game in the cabin in the woods.
The next second, the man and the python moved at the same time!
