Chapter 71 Lord Amo
The doctor on duty watched the four people and the cat walk out.
He breathed a sigh of relief only when the door was completely closed.
We must report this matter to our superiors immediately.
**
An Zhi was walking in the corridor, playing with the kitten in her arms.
Gu Changfeng and Gavin were two steps behind, chatting idly.
There's something really wrong with the snow this year; it hasn't stopped yet.
It was only a few kilometers away, and it took them two hours to drive here.
Fortunately, there are people coming and going inside the hospital.
Despite the blizzard outside, everything here is still in good order.
"Watson Pharmaceuticals?"
"We've made several achievements, and we've made some observations in psychiatric research. Apart from the bottom three floors, all the floors above this building have different psychiatric departments."
"Can you improve the taste of the psychotropics? They always taste like a sip of bubbly vinegar."
"Isn't it to avoid over-dependence? You must be especially careful. You can't rely on fighting to survive. You should rest more."
Gu Changfeng shook his head helplessly. It was easy to say so, but for them, how could they not use their mental power at all?
As mental strength grows, the perception of all human senses will be enhanced, and they will passively and actively receive information from the outside.
This excessive amount of information is fed back and puts pressure on the mental strength, forming a burden.
For example, now, Gu Changfeng squinted his eyes and looked not far ahead.
Some auras were too obvious in his perception even if he wanted to ignore them.
At the corner of the corridor not far away, a man in a black robe was standing with his back to them. He was tall and his entire body was wrapped in a wide black cloak. The brim of his hat was pulled down so low that his face could not be seen clearly.
He was holding a glowing tablet in his hands and looking down at something.
His entire aura was cold and powerful, completely out of tune with the warm, healing atmosphere created by the hospital.
Gu Changfeng and Gavin Gray's expressions became solemn in an instant, and the same surprise and vigilance flashed in their eyes.
"Lord Amo?"
Gavin Gray spoke first, his voice filled with uncertainty and tentativeness.
He obviously didn't expect to meet him here.
The black-robed man slowly turned around and raised his head. Beneath the brim of his hat was another black mask, which almost obscured his facial expression.
His exposed skin was covered with circles of pale bandages, but he didn't seem to show any emotion.
Gu Changfeng's eyes became more complicated. He whispered, "This is a member of the Imperial Guards. He's quite special. He doesn't hold a position, but his power is comparable to that of a commander."
Gavin Gray took a few steps forward and asked anxiously, "Lord Amer, what's the situation in the palace? Has the power system failure been identified? His Majesty..."
The man in black robe just listened quietly without making any sound.
His eyes swept across Gu Changfeng and Gavin Gray's faces, then he shook his head and said nothing.
Gu Jinyan noticed that a black display on his throat flashed a red light, like some kind of physiological assistance device, or some kind of identity mark.
A'mo then made a few gestures.
But Gu Changfeng and Gavin's expressions became more solemn, and it was obvious that the content conveyed by these gestures was not optimistic.
Just as A'mo lowered his head and was about to put the tablet away, his eyes inadvertently met An Zhi, who was holding the little black cat in Gu Jinyan's arms.
An Zhi was originally looking at this special uncle in black robe curiously. Her little head was slightly tilted, and her eyes were full of confusion.
When A'mo's eyes met hers, An Zhi did not feel scared. Instead, she felt an indescribable discomfort from him.
She thought, maybe it was like the kitten she had just held, who caught a cold in the snow and had a sore throat, so it didn't speak?
An Zhi stretched out her chubby little white hand, tightly clutching a throat lozenge that the nurse had just given her in the outpatient hall. She stood on tiptoe and struggled to pass the lozenge to Ah Mo, saying, "Is your throat uncomfortable? Just take some throat lozenges!"
A'Mo's movements froze instantly.
He seemed not to have expected that the little child would suddenly do such a thing.
He looked down at the throat lozenge wrapped in candy paper, then looked at An Zhi's bright dark eyes, and the black display in his throat flashed again.
He seemed to want to say something, but only vague syllables came out of his throat, a little hoarse, as if he had not made a sound for a long time.
However, just as A'mo was about to react or say something, the little black cat in An Zhi's arms suddenly stood up!
It suddenly jumped out of An Zhi's arms, and with a few nimble leaps, it disappeared in the crowd at the end of the corridor!
"Xiao Hei!"
An Zhi exclaimed and subconsciously wanted to chase after him.
But she had just taken a step when she stopped.
An Zhi's gaze fell on the fluorescent tube behind A'mo.
The light tube suddenly flickered violently, making a slight "sizzling" sound.
The next second, a chain reaction occurred.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!
All the fluorescent lights around here exploded, and the dazzling white light was accompanied by glass fragments that splashed all over the ground.
The corridor instantly fell into darkness, and only the red light of the emergency light began to flicker, dyeing everything bloody.
"Warning, warning!" an electronic voice rang out over the loudspeaker. "There's a patient on the sixth floor of the symptom ward who's mentally unstable. Urgent evacuation! Urgent evacuation!"
In the sudden chaos, screams rang out and the crowd fled in all directions like a flock of frightened birds.
A force from the front pushed An Zhi hard and pushed her into Gu Jinyan's arms.
An Zhi was so frightened by the sudden change that she grabbed Gu Jinyan's clothes tightly.
From Gu Jinyan's arms, she could only see the lifted black robe and a pair of dark eyes through the gap in the mask.
With a quick glance, A'mo's eyes swept across the chaotic scene of broken light tubes and frightened crowds, and he turned around and walked towards the center of the chaos.
Alarms, screams, a figure turning away... An Zhi subconsciously stretched out his hand to grab it, but as expected, he missed.
She stared blankly at the empty air in her hands.
However, at the moment when she felt lost, the cold figure in black robe turned back towards her!
A'mo's tall figure appeared in front of her again.
He stretched out his bandaged hand and gently touched An Zhixu's clenched fist.
Then, A'mo said to Gu Changfeng: "I'll take care of it. Protect her."
This time, A'mo really left.
His figure quickly disappeared in the flashing red light and the chaotic crowd.
An Zhi saw that the adults didn't seem very nervous.
Although Gu Changfeng and Gavin Gray looked a little serious, they were not in a hurry.
She just caught a few words: "Mental power out of control."
An Zhi knew this term; it was mentioned in the study materials she was cramming.
Mental power out of control means that when mental power exceeds the brain's ability to bear, the person will briefly fall into a state of violent chaos.
An Zhi thought about it and according to the book, it was very unsafe and he should stay away from the person who was out of control as soon as possible.
"Would that be dangerous?"
