015. Unremembered

Li Aozi had a comfortable night's sleep. He wasn't one to dawdle, and got up at six o'clock. Just as he was about to continue planning his upgrade route, the door to the isolation ward was suddenly kicked open. He looked up to see Nurse Nordri's gloomy face.

"Recovered quickly." Li Aozi glanced at her and commented lightly.

"You're no longer in poor health, come exercise." Before Nordri finished speaking, Li Aozi immediately jumped out of bed, dragging his restraint suit casually as he walked over.

Nordri was somewhat surprised; she hadn't explained anything yet.

'Could it be that a level five infected is no different from an ordinary person when not going crazy? The difference between this and level three or four infected is too great...'

"What do we need to do?"

Li Aozi didn't think much about it and asked casually, interrupting Nordri's thoughts.

"Follow me."

She said sullenly, leading Li Aozi to the training ground almost as if escorting a prisoner.

Li Aozi observed the surrounding environment with great interest and silently memorized the layout. His isolation ward was at the deepest part of the first floor, and along the way, he could see various sections and departments of the shelter.

As soon as they left the isolation ward area, the number of people increased. Various patients in hospital gowns walked back and forth. Li Aozi's gaze swept over their figures, and he clearly noticed that this batch of patients had a high degree of freedom, with some missing and deformed body parts.

Even though he wasn't in combat mode, his keen eyesight allowed him to judge that these seemingly harmless deformed and disabled patients had at least level 10 to 15 strength. Some were agile and strong, and could even keenly sense Li Aozi's scrutiny.

【No wonder people said this mission was hard to speedrun in the previous life... Even the patients here have such high average levels, which is quite difficult for players in the first two versions.】

Li Aozi recalled that the level cap for players in version 1.0 was 30, and in version 2.0, it was 60. One could imagine how frustrated players felt when encountering this mission at the beginning of the open beta.

They couldn't escape, and couldn't even beat the patients here, so they had to obediently cooperate with experiments and complete tasks.

"Don't look around." Nordri snorted coldly. "They are patients who have basically achieved self-suppression of Esha. Whether in physical fitness or combat power, they are stronger than you people from the four nations."

"Oh."

Li Aozi responded casually, then pointed to several cells adjacent to the isolation ward:

"Do you also detain prisoners here?"

"None of your business."

"I'm also a patient, not more dangerous than prisoners, right?" Li Aozi shrugged. "I think room ZX-102 is quite nice. Can I move there?"

"No."

"Why not? ZX-101 is also fine. Both locations are good, with a view of the cafeteria—"

Bang!

Before Li Aozi finished speaking, a sonic boom erupted in his ear, causing ringing and faint pain in his eardrums. He turned to look at Nordri, a fierce glint flashing in her grey eyes, before she put on an innocent smile.
