This strike was Zhao Yi's fastest move!
The surgical knife accurately hit the dean who was lost in his own world.
After the tip of the knife pierced the dean's forehead, an unknown change occurred!
The dean, whose power had not completely faded, suddenly stared with bloodshot eyes the size of copper bells.
Threads of blood vessels floated in his eyes.
Like a centipede crawling.
The pale claws that gripped Zhao Yi's neck drained all their strength in that moment of near-death weakness.
Zhao Yi fell to the ground in a sorry state, lifting up his newspaper mask and coughing a few times. There were already several bruise marks on his neck!
The dean was still hanging on a rope, but his head had drooped.

[Item: Bloodstained Surgical Knife]
[Quality: Unique]
[Description: Your soul weapon has awakened slightly due to absorbing the resentment of a vengeful spirit, granting it weak chaotic damage.]
[Note: Chaotic damage ignores resistance, evasion, and damage reduction, inflicting full damage on all units.]
[Effect: -Data Error-]
...
"Chaotic damage... Is it some sort of advanced attribute?"
Zhao Yi secretly remembered this special attribute.
After killing the dean, Zhao Yi carefully examined the hanging corpse in front of him and pulled the surgical knife out from his forehead.
Blood continued to drip from the tip of the knife.
Zhao Yi entered the dean's office and, after searching for a while, found a letter and the dean's access card in a cabinet.
He took the access card with him and opened the letter to read it.
The previous crybaby's diary sparked some interest in Zhao Yi about this world.
Both the Giant Hospital and the small town had clearly suffered from the invasion of mysterious forces, resulting in their current state.
Although the novice copy did not give Zhao Yi the opportunity to explore the worldview, he still wanted to find some materials to delve into it.
It's hard to say that he won't enter this worldview copy again in the future.
The letter was sent from the outside world.
The paper was sparse with ink, and the handwriting was quite sloppy.
[Old Chen, I contacted the authorities and bribed the guards in the town for you!]
[Gu Xuan Town is no longer safe!]
[Pack up your things early. In these two or three days, go to the station at the South Town Gate. There's a black Deca truck waiting for you.]
[If you're late... something unexpected might happen!]
Just four lines.
There wasn't even a signature on the envelope.
The other party clearly knew what had happened in Gu Xuan Town.
But things still didn't go as he expected.
This dean named 'Old Chen' ultimately died in the hospital!
A gruesome death!
Zhao Yi squinted, folded the letter and put it back in another drawer.
He left the dean's office, making sure to lock the door. With his access card in hand, he cautiously navigated past some extremely dangerous unknown shadows and finally arrived at the hospital's entrance.
The security guard's body lay shattered into pieces, scattered across the ground.
In a sudden moment, Zhao Yi felt something amiss and locked eyes on a distorted figure within the shadow.
"??? : Extremely dangerous!"
"Note: Do not let him leave your line of sight, otherwise something terrifying will happen!"
Seeing the ominous warning, Zhao Yi's hairs stood on end. He couldn't make out the eerie figure, but both the data warning and his instincts told him that this was something he couldn't afford to provoke.
Keeping his composure, Zhao Yi reached the entrance and swiped his access card.
Drip—
The black iron gate emitted a grating sound as it slowly creaked open, revealing a world obscured by thick fog.
Clearly, this beginner's instance was not keen on revealing more information to Zhao Yi.
Zhao Yi fixed his gaze on the twisted figure in the darkness, slowly retreating until he vanished into the mist...
As the fog completely concealed Zhao Yi's body, a white light appeared before him, and his body abruptly disappeared within the dense fog.
After Zhao Yi vanished, the twisted figure in the shadow suddenly turned around, freezing in place like a puppet, coldly staring at the spot where Zhao Yi had disappeared...

Inside the live broadcast room, there was an uproar. A newcomer had achieved an S+ rating in the hell-level instance "Giant Hospital," and many witnessed it firsthand, exhilarated as if they had conquered the instance themselves!
Upon returning to the safe zone, Zhao Yi received over 99 friend requests!
"Evernight Camp is a safe zone where players can interact with each other.
In fact, it is not a traditional real geographical location, but rather a virtual platform.
Inside, there are live streams of all the players in the area, as well as opportunities for item trading.
Within the camp, there is a forum for players in a specific area to exchange experiences in dungeons and share their knowledge about overcoming challenges in their respective territories.
As Zhao Yi looked around, he realized that he was in a unique environment.
In front of him was a white circle with two different options inside:
[1 Choose the guild you want to join—]
[2 Do you want to create a guild on your own?]
One option was to join a guild, and the other was to create one.
Zhao Yi opened his system panel and found many friend requests marked with an esteemed golden color.
These people held special and distinguished positions in major guilds.
Without any extra effort, they wanted to recruit Zhao Yi into their guilds and openly promised to provide resources to significantly improve his survival rate in both dungeon missions and world tasks!
Among them were members from top guilds such as "Five Tigers," "Echoing Horn Battalion," and "Skyward View," among others.
These major guilds have strict recruiting policies and almost never accept new members!
Their invitation to Zhao Yi was truly exceptional!
It's important to note that even ordinary players find it extremely difficult to transfer to these top guilds in the game, no matter how hard they try.
A good guild possesses various abundant resources and can rapidly advance in large-scale world missions, expand the guild's size, and gain more benefits!"
