Two days later, Lu Ning, Li Yihang, and others came to visit Qinglan Saint and the others again.
Nan Yu and Gina have recovered, and Steve and Yang Yin have also almost fully recovered.
An Lan's condition seems to have improved slightly, but she is still in a state of dementia.
Just as Lu Ning and Qinglan Saint were about to visit Jerry, a doctor ran over quickly.
He said, slightly out of breath, "Your Holiness, the patient has shown abnormalities."
Upon hearing this, Saint Qinglan and the others felt a chill in their hearts.
Steve immediately asked, "What's wrong?! Is Jerry alright?!"
The others were also staring intently at the doctor.
The doctor was just an ordinary person, and he immediately felt immense pressure under the gaze of several high-level awakened individuals.
He wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with a wry smile, "I don't know either. I'm just here to inform the officers."
Upon hearing this, everyone realized that asking the doctor was pointless.
The group immediately ran towards Jerry's hospital room.
Soon, the group arrived outside Jerry's ward.
Jerry's hospital room door was closed, and two doctors were guarding the door.
Upon seeing Lu Ning and his group arrive, they all came forward to greet them.
"Your Excellency, the Holy One, you have arrived."
Saint Qinglan glanced at the window, whose curtains were also drawn, and asked, "What's going on?"
One of the doctors spoke up: "It's like this, during the routine check-up this morning, we found a new kind of discharge on Commander Jerry's pillow, which has never appeared before."
"Secretions?" Saint Qinglan frowned.
"You should go in and have a look; I can't explain this clearly either," the doctor said.
He then looked at Lu Ning and the others and said, "There are too many people. Should we reduce the number of people going in?"
Saint Qinglan nodded, then looked at Lu Ning and the others and said, "How about this, Lu Ning, Nan Yu, Gina, let's go in. Steve and Yang Yin, you haven't fully recovered yet, so please wait outside for a while to avoid being affected by mental pollution."
Steve and Yang Yin nodded.
The doctor opened the ward door; the lights were already on.
Lu Ning glanced at the window outside and found that the curtains were already drawn.
After the four entered the ward, they saw two doctors in white coats standing by the bedside.
Upon seeing the four members of the Azure Mist Saint enter, the two nodded and greeted them.
One of the doctors had short, gray hair as thin as steel needles, a face full of wrinkles, and was quite old.
This is the hospital's director, who is also a fourth-level Awakened One named Bai Jingming.
Lu Ning wasn't very familiar with this dean, but Colin had told him that the dean seemed to have a tragic past.
It is said that many years ago, his daughter was attacked by cult members at her wedding, and his daughter died in the attack.
It is said that his hair turned mostly white that night, and his personality changed considerably afterward.
According to Colin, Bai Jingming, who was originally a very gentle old man, has now become much more violent and even somewhat cold.
It was even later revealed that Bai Jingming had privately arrested several cult members on the verge of death and conducted live experiments on them.
However, Bai Jingming's abilities are well-suited for healing, and he has saved many people over the years.
Therefore, Bai Jingming is quite famous in the entire Awakened community of the base city.
"Dean Bai, what's wrong with Jerry?" Saint Qinglan asked.
Bai Jingming pointed to Jerry's pillow and said, "Take a look at this first."
Everyone looked over and then saw strange silvery fluffy things on the white pillowcase next to Jerry.
These flocculent substances are intertwined and few in number.
It's almost invisible on the white pillowcase.
However, everyone present was an Awakened One. As their strength increased and their physical bodies became stronger, their eyesight also improved, so they could see each other at a glance.
"What is this?" Gina asked, frowning.
Bai Jingming shook his head, pointed to the instrument in his assistant's hand, and said, "I'm not sure what it is, but my assistant checked it and found that there is mental pollution, but the level of pollution is not very high."
Saint Qinglan nodded slightly, then looked at Lu Ning.
Nan Yu and Gina did the same.
Seeing everyone's actions, Bai Jingming and his assistant also looked over.
Bai Jingming sized up Lu Ning, a smile appearing on his usually indifferent face: "Lu Ning, do you remember me? We met at headquarters during the Happy Paradise incident."
Lu Ning nodded: "Yes, I remember."
When Joyful Heaven used the Fallen Incense Burner to corrupt the base city, Bai Jingming was one of the awakened ones who volunteered to participate in the operation.
Because Bai Jingming's strength had reached the fourth level, Lu Ning had some impression of him.
"I heard you can spot mental pollution? Come and take a look."
Lu Ning calmly looked at the clump of fluffy material and said, "It does have a bit of mental pollution, but... the mental pollution from this thing is very strange."
Upon hearing this, everyone was taken aback and looked at Lu Ning with some confusion.
"What's so strange?" Saint Qinglan asked, frowning.
Lu Ning stared intently at the silvery, fluffy substance. In his vision, although the substance was only a small clump, it spread in all directions like a spider web. Some tiny silver threads shot into Jerry's temples, while others seemed to disappear after spreading for less than a meter.
However, Lu Ning felt that it wasn't that the spider silk had broken, but rather that it had entered some space that Lu Ning couldn't see.
"In addition to the flocculent material itself, the pollution is also expanding outwards."
