Ten minutes later.

Downstairs at the Li Family Hotel, various luxury vehicles were gathered, and it seemed that an ambulance was driving away with a whirring sound.

One by one, the VIPs, still shaken and with disheveled hair, got into their cars and left, either crying or trembling.

The scene was extremely chaotic.

Li Song stood to one side with a mournful face, watching his distinguished guests flee.

Then he turned to look at Qi Xie beside him.

Qi Xie silently turned his head away, avoiding Li Song's gaze.

It all started with [the gaze of the shadow].

The power emanating from this level-two sealed artifact was far beyond his expectations.

He had only intended to casually test the power of the shadow tentacles, but to his surprise, they easily pierced through the wall and even disturbed the middle-aged noblewoman living in the next room.

The wealthy lady was sleeping soundly when she suddenly heard the wall collapse. When she woke up, she saw the room full of shadowy tentacles with blood-red vertical eyes, which gave her a shock.

At this point, Qi Xie was still able to control the situation.

Unexpectedly, the middle-aged lady thought there was a strange intrusion and immediately breathed on it.

She directly used a one-time level two sealing artifact to sever Qi Xie's shadow tentacles.

Then the evil god sensed the aura of the sealed artifact erupting.

It should be noted that, apart from the "Gift" sealed artifact in Qi Xie's possession, the sealed artifacts in the possession of others are all strange products under normal circumstances.

Such a level-two sealed artifact is essentially equivalent to a dangerous level of bizarre energy.

For a starving ghost who has just whetted his appetite with the "student ghost," the consequence of having another dangerous "delicacy" appear in front of him is...

Haki God also breathed out.

The tentacles went berserk on the spot, indiscriminately preying on everything in the vicinity, whether moving or immobile, that carried a strange aura.

Fortunately, the evil god had recovered somewhat during this period and regained some of its rationality. In addition, Qi Xie used the shadow tentacles to desperately snatch people away, and the evil god eventually returned to normal and shrank back on its own.

"Uh...you know, there's a chance of things going out of control when using calamity-grade materials to fuse and upgrade sealed artifacts, and obviously my luck has never been very good...cough cough..."

Qi Xie made up a reason and coughed lightly to ease the awkwardness.

Li Song: ……

Someone as experienced in the business world as him could tell at a glance that Qi Xie was lying!

Unfortunately, his family had just finalized their decision to side with Qi Xie, and he couldn't say anything about it!

Qi Xie didn't dare to meet Li Song's gaze. He took out his phone and said as he walked out:

"Um... I suddenly remembered, I booked a flight back tonight, and I'm going to miss it, so I have to go!"

Li Song's eye twitched:

"You...weren't you leaving tomorrow? When did you change your travel documents?"

"Now."

"???"

After leaving the mess to Li Song, Qi Xie decisively made his escape.

He was really bad at handling these kinds of situations, and now that he had finished his business in Yingchuan, he had no choice but to run away.

He found an area without surveillance cameras, circled around a few corners to make sure no one was following him.

Qi Xie once again used his disguise and fake ID to quietly return to Shenzhen by taking a different mode of transportation.

After finishing this busy period, it's almost time for the next dungeon matchmaking session.

Qi Xie simply relaxed, eating, drinking, and having fun while keeping an eye on the official developments as Li Song had instructed.

Time passed peacefully like flowing water, and in the blink of an eye, the cooldown for the next dungeon matchmaking session was about to end.

In the past few days, Qi Xie has not heard any news.

But it's not surprising; that's how it is with the authorities. The procedures are quite strict, and every decision has to be reported up and down the chain of command, so it might not be quick.

In addition, the day after he returned, Di'ao made a voice call to him through the system.

He didn't dare to answer.

I didn't dare ask.

All I could do in the message was, "Don't say anything. Consider it a favor that Master Qi owes you. If you ever need anything in the future, just let me know."

The other person replied with a crying cat emoji.

This matter is now considered closed.

Qi Xie also composed himself and prepared to enter the fourth instance.

It is night again.

Inside the villa in Da Shen City, Qi Xie sat on the sofa, staring at the familiar system panel in front of him, waiting for the countdown to pass.

[Time remaining until next dungeon match: 5 seconds]

As the ethereal broadcast ended, the familiar blue light and distorted sensation instantly enveloped Qi Xie.

[Dungeon matchmaking in progress...]

【Successful match! 】

Welcome to the "Tzu Chi People's Hospital" instance.

[Passage Requirements: Survive the night shift and remain alive until dawn]

Dear medical colleagues, welcome to Cixing People's Hospital. Upholding the noble virtues of benevolence and compassion, and to ensure patients have a warm and reassuring medical experience, please adhere to the service guidelines for medical staff.

The eerie live stream has begun.

Number of viewers in the live stream: [384763]

The blue light in front of me slowly dissipated.

The first thing you smell is the pungent odor of disinfectant.

Qi Xie opened his eyes and found himself sitting in an office.

No, it should be called a consultation room, which is no different from the consultation rooms in all modern large hospitals, with a table, a chair, and a desktop computer in front of it.

Qi Xie sat in front of the computer, but the screen was covered in dust and had a cracked corner; it looked broken no matter how you looked at it.

He turned his head and looked around again.

Behind me was a curtain, and behind the curtain was a small hospital bed, also covered in dust, with the blankets somewhat moldy.

There was a broken window next to the hospital bed, through which you could see a street-like scene nearby.

But looking further ahead, nothing could be seen—a layer of hazy fog obscured the view.

"Hospital? I'm a patient? No, I'm a doctor???"

Qi Xie looked down and saw that he was wearing a blood-stained white coat.

There was also a name tag on his chest.

Gynecologist: Qi Xie.

and many more?

Gynecology?

Qi Xie's lips twitched, but he didn't pay much attention and continued to look at the table.

On the dusty table sat a thermos containing half a cup of blackened, unidentified liquid, with a few goji berries soaking in it.

Qi Xie casually picked up the thermos and threw it into the shadows.

Only then did he begin to observe his own consultation room.

He soon noticed a prominent notice on the wall.
