Chapter 56: Sea Empire Pisces City 04



In the emergency room, fully armed doctors began the operation after strict disinfection.

They scanned the patient's body and found strange parasitic species.

The parasitic species took root deep within the patient's heart organs and grew visibly.

The patient who was over-absorbed of nutrients lost a lot of weight in just one night. His shoulder blades protruded from his back and his rapid breathing made him look like an old man on his deathbed.

A high-tech robotic clamp assisted the surgeon on one side, and the atmosphere gradually became tense and tense.

A thin layer of sweat oozed out of his forehead. The sharp scalpel cut through his flesh and gushed out blood.

The surgeon's eyes were fixed on the round embryo clamped by the blood-stained robotic forceps. Before he could even breathe a sigh of relief, red lights began to flash around him.

The patient developed uncontrollable massive bleeding.

His frail body was like a spent force. After he exhaled the breath he had gathered, there was no rise and fall again. The gushing red blood splashed onto the smooth and clean floor.

Until the heart-pounding dripping sound completely turned into a straight line.

...

...

The operation failed, the light sign in the operating room went out, and red replaced green.

The family members’ curses and cries of grief continued to hover over the hospital.

......

Lu Zhi was wandering aimlessly on the street. Just as he stopped at the traffic light, a car stopped in front of him.

The car window was slowly rolled down, revealing the man's clear and handsome profile.

"Get in the car."

With bony fingers gripping the steering wheel, Yuan Shuo had a perfect smile on his lips, and his drooping eyes gave off a sense of innocence and harmlessness.

Obviously not expecting to meet again, Lu Zhi was stunned for a second, and then wanted to go to the back seat, but Yuan Shuo stopped him with a chuckle: "Co-pilot, it's convenient to exchange clues."

Can we talk in the back seat?

Lu Zhi muttered to himself, then obediently opened the car door and sat in the passenger seat.

Upon learning that Yuan Shuo bought a small courtyard in Shuangyu City, Lu Zhi sighed that comparison is the thief of frustrating.

The man who heard her muttering had a hint of amusement in his eyes, and touched the bridge of his nose guiltily.

He is not restricted by the infinite flow game, so he naturally has countless gold coins and boundless space.

Due to the transformation of identity, the space is now only a hundred cubic meters in size, but there is not a single gold coin missing.

Naturally, these things cannot be told to Lu Zhi.

Besides, he was able to catch up now, partly because of the gift he gave in the last instance. Who would have thought that the God of Infinite Flow would also be restricted by it, and the rules and regulations gave him a headache.

On the way, Yuan Shuo consciously or unconsciously wanted Lu Zhi to move in with him. The small courtyard had two bedrooms and a living room, so there would be no awkward situation of men and women sleeping in the same bed.

He listed a lot of benefits, and Lu Zhi's eyes curved into crescents because of his amusements.

She thought about it for a moment and then agreed.

Perhaps because of the game they had played before, she was very happy to work with Yuan Shuo again.

We drove to the Apple Hotel to pick up the bottles of purified water piled in the corner, and Yuan Shuo busied himself carrying them to the trunk.

After checking out of the hotel, Lu Zhi got into the car with ease.

The exhaust fumes from the car dissipated. In front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the Apple Hotel, a man in a suit stood up in surprise and squinted his eyes to try to see more clearly, but the car had already disappeared from his sight.

"Brother Haoyu?"

The woman sitting opposite him looked at him shyly, and her delicate voice gave goosebumps to everyone behind Li Haoyu.

The affection and complexity in Li Haoyu's eyes made Lu Yao's heart skip a beat. She followed his gaze and saw that everything on the street was normal.

Women's intuition is very accurate, and Lu Yao suddenly felt a sense of crisis.

The man in front of her is her fiancé. To be more precise, Li Haoyu is the future son-in-law of the Lu family and the ex-fiancé of Lu Zhi who was kicked out of the Lu family.

Taking a closer look at Li Haoyu's handsome features, anyone with a discerning eye could tell that Lu Yao loved him.

Qiao Bo, who was standing behind her, also noticed the boss's strangeness. He glanced at the petite and lovely woman in front of him calmly: "Brother Li, what's wrong?"

Li Haoyu said nothing and withdrew his infatuated gaze. He sat down leisurely and took a sip of the steaming tea.

After a long while, he sighed and said, "Maybe I saw it wrong."

Lu Zhi had no idea that her old acquaintances had been selected by the infinite flow game and were in the same copy as her.

Following Yuan Shuo out of the car and standing in the exquisite and warm little house, Lu Zhi was filled with emotion again.

After a quick tidy up, the two sat on the sofa and organized their conversation.

Yuan Shuo: "Giant squid, you know everything, right?"

Lu Zhi nodded: "It's all available online."

Yuan Shuo: "I am an intern doctoral student at the underground research institute. It seems that the giant squid has been caught by them again. The place where it is detained is heavily guarded. I did not rush in."

Giant squid caught?!

Lu Zhi was so surprised that she opened her mouth slightly and said, "Isn't the giant squid the guardian beast that protects Pisces City? How could it be?"

Yuan Shuo rubbed the edge of his clothes with his fingertips and smiled: "It's not surprising that they are so ambitious to do such a thing."

Lu Zhi also told Yuan Shuo about his experiences and speculations.

The two looked at each other and said in unison: "The mutation is related to the giant squid's experiment!"

Since Yuan Shuo was only a PhD trainee, he had no access to more in-depth experiments and equipment, let alone the giant squid experiment.

They couldn't be 100% sure what the people at the research institute did, they could only ensure that the imported food was clean.

The night of the third day of the game was very uneasy.

Lu Zhi, who was sleeping in the guest bedroom, tossed and turned in bed. The little bit of sleepiness that had just emerged was quickly scared away by the painful screams from the street.

The sleepiness disappeared, Lu Zhili sat up from the bed and walked to the windowsill in a few steps.

She lifted a corner of the curtain and looked out.

The streets were very quiet at night, and a sharp and shrill scream broke the silence and sounded the alarm.

It's like a flood that breaks through a dam; once the drain is opened, it's difficult to close it again.

Screams came one after another from all directions, and then the sounds gradually weakened, until only heavy breathing and low howls as weak as a cat's meow remained.

The depression in my chest is getting heavier.

After returning to bed, Lu Zhi was filled with thoughts and fell asleep unconsciously.

She was awakened by the cold in a half-asleep state and rubbed her sleepy eyes.

I opened my phone and glanced at the time - five fifty in the morning.

With his head cleared from the cold, Lu Zhi unlocked the screen and saw a message pop up:

[Attention, Pisces! The cold wave is coming early, please keep warm! There are many people who are sick recently, please pay attention to your diet! I wish you a wonderful day! ]

The cold wave came early, no wonder she was woken up by the cold.

Lu Zhi took out a down jacket to keep warm from the space, put it on, and curled up in the still warm quilt. Only then did he feel his frozen limbs gradually relax and warm.

When I opened the door, Yuan Shuo was sitting on the sofa.

Seeing her wrapped up like a little penguin, he laughed out loud without any sincerity: "Hey, is it really that cold?"

He was only wearing a high-necked plush sweater and a white down jacket. Upon closer inspection, the style was not much different from the one Lu Zhi was wearing.

Lu Zhi ignored his teasing and joking.

She took the breakfast he pushed to her, thanked him and ate it in small bites without any hesitation.

"The real game is about to begin."

Yuan Shuo smoothed his sleeves and spoke in a normal tone.

After swallowing the warm quail egg, Lu Zhi nodded thoughtfully.

On the fourth day of the game, more and more people in Pisces City fell ill.

All major hospitals are overcrowded, inpatient departments are overwhelmed, and procedures have even been streamlined.

People covering their mouths and coughing violently can be seen everywhere on the streets. They look haggard as if they have been sick for a long time.

After really understanding them, we found out that they started to have coughing symptoms yesterday, and the symptoms were worse when they woke up in the morning, and sometimes they even coughed up blood.

After going to the hospital for a check-up, they only found that there were parasites in their bodies that were sucking their life and nutrients.

People who don’t have money are unwilling to pay high fees for a surgery with a success rate of less than 10%. They would rather bear it and not care if they die.

There have been many speculations online:

[Did you eat something you shouldn’t have? My relative was rushed to the operating room within half a day of being hospitalized, and he died of severe bleeding and could not be saved]
