Chapter 11 Something big has happened!
God!
Luo Feng stared in shock at the values displayed on the testing instrument, his voice stammering, "W-am I seeing things?"
Otherwise, how could his mental strength have... decreased so much?!
It dropped by more than 10,000!
"You read that right..."
The team doctor was also quite shocked by the result. He thought that Luo Feng's pale face was due to pain caused by his mental strength exceeding the threshold again—this often happened, which was why Luo Feng and his team, who were only "exiled" here to patrol, were accompanied by a team doctor.
As a result, Luo Feng's mental strength value not only did not exceed the standard, but was even healthier and more normal than his value on the battlefield.
"Could the instrument be broken?" Luo Feng offered another possible explanation. The values had dropped so drastically this time that he was more inclined to believe the instrument was malfunctioning.
"How about we test it again?" The team doctor also felt a little unsure and pulled out another testing device.
“Ding Di—”
A few seconds later, the new testing instrument displayed the same value.
"It's true!" The team doctor excitedly patted Luo Feng on the shoulder. "The equipment isn't malfunctioning! Your mental strength has indeed decreased that much!"
"Vice-Commander, how did you do that?!"
How did he do that? Luo Feng subconsciously began to recall what he had done that day.
Training, patrolling, eating, and then playing games because I was so bored... It seems like nothing's different from usual.
"Slap!" He slapped his thigh hard.
He remembered!
"I played a game today!"
"A game?" The team doctor was somewhat skeptical. Could playing a game really have such a good effect? Luo Feng had used games before to release excess mental energy, but the effect was... it would have been better to let Luo Feng go out and fight Ji Shu.
"No, no, no!" Luo Feng shook his finger, his face displaying a profound "you wouldn't understand" expression: "This game is different!"
"What? You found a new game?"
"No, not at all..." Luo Feng said, "The game is the same one I played before, the one that won first place in the horror holographic game competition, but this time I seem to have entered a new map..."
"Let me tell you, there's a really, really scary house on that new map..."
Luo Feng described his experience in the game to the team doctor in great detail.
The team doctor was also surprised to learn that their vice-captain had a talent for storytelling—just listening to Luo Feng's description gave him goosebumps.
"Alright, alright, I believe you!" The team doctor shrugged. "If this game is really as you described, then mental strength can indeed decrease that much..."
"Right..." Luo Feng said with lingering fear and a sigh, "When I watched the wooden planks close little by little, I really thought I was going to die."
"This is the first time I've ever played such a terrifying game! It's so exciting!"
"This game definitely deserves to be number one in this competition!"
"Okay, okay..." Seeing that Luo Feng was about to launch into another long-winded discussion about that terrifying game, the team medic quickly changed the subject: "By the way, Vice-Captain, didn't you just say that the survivor on that pirate ship woke up?"
Reminded by the team doctor, Luo Feng finally remembered the purpose of his trip.
He slapped his forehead: "Right, right! Come with me right now and check her out..."
……
Inside the medical pod.
The woman in crimson robes is listening to the system's report:
"drop--"
"Energy collected: 13542".
"Current remaining energy: 15924".
"Hmm?" Jiang Yi's eyes widened slightly, clearly surprised by the number. "So many?"
She had deliberately chosen the least terrifying memory from all her previous owners' memories for Luo Feng to experience, yet he still gained so much fear?
Humans are really hard to raise...
Jiang Yi recalled hearing from other dungeon bosses in horror games that sometimes, even though they were just staying in their own dungeons and doing nothing, some players would be scared to death just by seeing them.
Jiang Yi didn't have this experience, because the players who could enter her instance were mostly of a high level, so such a ridiculous situation was unlikely to occur.
This led to a rather erroneous assessment of the level of terror that humans could endure.
It seems she needs to lower the level of fear a bit more...
After all, humans are really too fragile.
While he was thinking, Luo Feng, the "fragile human," walked in with another, even more fragile human.
"She really woke up... and seems to be in pretty good spirits..."
The team doctor walked over to the medical pod with a look of delight, checked the data on the woman in red, and nodded in satisfaction, "Her recovery is going very well...the data is all very good."
"She can leave the medical pod now..."
How could it not be good?
Jiang Yi thought expressionlessly.
All the data recorded in the medical pod was extracted bit by bit by that idiotic system, precisely at the maximum limit, perfectly aligning with the data line that the human body can achieve.
However, Jiang Yi was quite happy to be able to leave the medical ward.
She's practically turned to mush from lying in there all these days.
The medical pod door slowly opened, letting in a rush of cold air. Jiang Yi slowly sat up inside.
"How are you feeling?" The team doctor asked, recording data while observing Jiang Yi's reaction.
Jiang Yi nodded without saying a word.
The team doctor didn't seem to care, nodded, and continued to ask, "Is there anything that's bothering you? Your previous injury was very serious; we practically pulled you back from the brink of death, so there might be some areas we missed. If you feel uncomfortable anywhere, be sure to tell me."
Jiang Yi shook her head to answer the first question, then nodded to indicate that she knew.
Even Luo Feng, who was watching from the sidelines, could see that something was wrong.
"You...you can't speak?"
Jiang Yi... it's not that she can't speak. Her body was originally dead; it could only shatter, not break. In addition, with the "nourishment" of the space pirate's flesh and blood, she and this body have merged well, and even her speaking speed has returned to normal.
She just found it troublesome.
Human beings have an insatiable curiosity.
During her feigned unconsciousness, she listened to their conversation. She knew they were waiting for her to wake up, waiting to ask her questions.
So once she opened the floodgates, countless problems would come her way.
Jiang Yi simply pretended to be mute.
Anyway, she's just a piece of clothing, and a piece of clothing can't talk... isn't that normal?
"Hiss... What's going on?" Luo Feng asked the team doctor.
"Hmm, it could be post-traumatic stress, or it could be that he hit his head when the spaceship crashed, causing a problem with the brain's language module."
"What should we do then?" Luo Feng asked anxiously. He had been waiting for the person to wake up so he could investigate the situation on the spaceship.
"A thorough examination is needed to determine this. However, we don't have the necessary equipment right now; we'll have to go back to get the necessary tests done."
"Is it that troublesome?"
"There's something even more troublesome..." The team doctor suddenly turned to look at Jiang Yi, and asked softly, "Do you remember what happened on the spaceship?"
The woman in crimson robes remained silent.
Upon seeing this, Luo Feng suddenly had a bad feeling.
The next second, he heard the team doctor cautiously change the question: "Do you remember who you are?"
Jiang Yi remained silent.
Because she got inspiration from the team doctor's words—
Amnesia... seems more cost-effective than pretending to be mute.
"It's all over, it's all over..." Luo Feng clutched his head in anguish.
The worst thing still happened—
The only person who knew what happened on the spaceship had lost her memory! She didn't even remember who she was!
"No!" Luo Feng turned and headed towards the door. "I need to make a phone call (to report)."
He can't handle this situation!
Let's leave the problem to someone who can solve it!
The video call was made quickly.
He was lucky; the other end quickly connected to the video call.
However, the person on the other end of the video call didn't seem very happy.
"Luo Feng".
The deep male voice was casual, yet contained a subtle warning: "You'd better have something important to tell me right now."
"Boss!"
Luo Feng shouted, "Something terrible has happened!"
