That day passed quickly.
At midnight, Liu Yuan stood punctually in the middle between room 399 and 400 on the -3rd floor.
Around 2 AM, a hazy firelight lit up from the dark corridor in front of Liu Yuan.
This time, the one holding the lantern was Lu Yuan himself.
There were a few holes in his white coat, and he looked somewhat tired.
Liu Yuan stepped forward to take the lantern from Lu Yuan's hand, glanced at the prop box tucked into his coat pocket, and said, "Huh? Half of the scalpels weren't used this time?"
Lu Yuan nodded. "Yeah, the abstainers inside didn't resist as fiercely as before."
Liu Yuan: "Anyway, they're all powerless to resist, so why not just lie down and enjoy it? As long as you don't kill anyone, do whatever you want."
Lu Yuan picked up a broken scalpel handle in his hand and looked at it.
He said slowly, "I hope so..."
The two slowly walked back the way they came from.
On the way, they met Xiao Yi.
This tall zombie infection was happily eating a corpse that Lu Yuan had disposed of. As soon as it saw Lu Yuan coming over, it got scared and immediately turned around with its back facing Lu Yuan and raised its claws to cover its eyes.
Lu Yuan just smiled at it, then restrained his aura and quietly walked past behind it.
Only when Lu Yuan had walked far away did the zombie infection slowly lower its claws...
On the mezzanine of the -2nd floor.
When they got here, looking at the cold door in front of them, Lu Yuan asked Liu Yuan, "When was the last time I went in?"
Liu Yuan: "Two months ago."
Lu Yuan turned to go upstairs. "Then I won't go in this time. Next time."
"Go get some rest."
"Alright."
Going back to the 1st floor, slowly walking through the corridor on the 1st floor, passing through the central reception hall, Lu Yuan stood under the eaves and took a few deep breaths of the night air.
He saw that under the flag raising platform in front of the clinic building, a man was sitting.
It was that big guy, the unknown beastified infection.
Lu Yuan walked quietly up to him and said lightly, "I told you to stay away, why did you come back? You want me to take you apart to make specimens, don't you?"
The big guy who was dozing off under the flag platform was startled. He got up and looked at Lu Yuan, "Dr. Lu..."
Looking into the big guy's eyes, suddenly, a hint of excitement appeared in Lu Yuan's eyes.
Because he discovered that in just the past two days since he last saw him, there was now something in the big guy's eyes that hadn't been there before.
It was a hint of madness lurking deep in his eyes.
Not just the kind of madness for devouring flesh and blood, but also including destruction, slaughter, bloodthirst, ruin, mania and other elements.
A decent, honest man, yet as a result...
It could only be said that what happened with Qiu Ying was no small stimulus for this big guy.
A few minutes later, in Lu Yuan's office.
Looking at the big guy sitting across from him, Lu Yuan asked, "How do you feel now?"
The big guy looked somewhat low. He shook his head. "Dr. Lu, I ate people. Lock me back up."
Lu Yuan took a sip of water and said slowly, "What I want to cut off is your habit of eating people and your instinctive desire for human flesh and blood."
"You never had the former to begin with, and as for the latter, when I saw you the day before yesterday, you still had a little left, but now..."
"It's also completely gone."
The big guy Niu Ben was stunned. He didn't expect Lu Yuan to say this. He was at a loss for words, not knowing what to say.
Lu Yuan blinked. Instead of telling this big guy about what he had just seen in his eyes, he asked, "What was your infection gene again?"
At this moment, a metallic color suddenly emerged on the big guy's body!
His already burly muscles instantly turned into chunks of hard iron lumps!
Lu Yuan remembered.
The big guy's name was Niu Ben. He was infected with the Heterogeneous Armored Rhinoceros gene.
His ability allowed him to metalize his own body, more of a defensive type.
Lu Yuan also had this ability, he just rarely used it, because he rarely defended.
Lu Yuan stroked his chin in thought for a moment, then asked again, "You're free now. You really don't want to go see what this world is like?"
The big guy Niu Ben shook his head listlessly. "Dr. Lu, whether it's my hometown that has become an infection zone, or what happened with Qiu Ying, they have made me very disappointed with this world..."
Lu Yuan: "So you have no unfinished wishes left?"
Niu Ben looked at Lu Yuan very seriously and said, "Dr. Lu, I want to become stronger. This world is too dirty. I want to purify it!"
"Hmm..."
Lu Yuan rubbed his own face and put on a self-professed very warm smile. "Niu Ben, I can make you stronger. I have two plans here."
"One is paid, the other is free. How do you choose?"
The big guy Niu Ben was startled. "Dr. Lu, isn't this obvious? Is there still anyone who would choose the paid one? That would be silly!"
At this moment, there was a two second struggle in Lu Yuan's heart. Just two seconds, not a millisecond more.
"Of course! How are there so many fools in this world? Even when I do surgery for free no one comes!"
"Humph!"
Bang!
Niu Ben smashed Lu Yuan's desk with a punch. "Dr. Lu! It must be that those people don't believe in your skills!"
"Don't worry! From now on I'll help you get customers!"
Lu Yuan stared at where Niu Ben had punched for a long time to make sure there was no problem before waving his hand. "No need, no need! But Niu Ben, there are some things I have to make clear to you in advance!"
"With this kind of surgery, especially ability-related ones, some strange benign reactions often occur. You have to be mentally prepared!"
"I'm ready!"
Bang!
Niu Ben smashed down again with another punch. "Dr. Lu, don't worry! Since I, Niu Ben, trust you, then I'll hand over all 300 pounds of meat on this body to you!"
"Even if you get me killed, if I become a ghost I won't come looking for you!"
Clap!
Lu Yuan slapped his thigh excitedly. Look at this! Look at this!
What is called an enlightened man?!
"Good! Niu Ben, starting today, room 93 will be your room!"
"Hahaha! Great!"
Bang!
Niu Ben smashed Lu Yuan's desk again with another punch. "Thank you, Dr. Lu!"
Lu Yuan stared at where Niu Ben had punched for a while again, waved his hand and said, "If there's nothing else, let's end here for today..."
This was a very obvious dismissal from Lu Yuan, but Niu Ben didn't leave directly.
He looked at Lu Yuan with a hesitant expression on his face, as if he had something more to say.
"Niu Ben, if you've got something to say, just say it. But I warn you, this desk can't withstand another punch from you!"
"I can do the surgery for free, but if you break this desk, you'll have to pay for it!"
As soon as Niu Ben heard this, he hurriedly removed his hands from Lu Yuan's desk.
"Dr. Lu, I... I want to use the bathroom..."
Lu Yuan looked up in confusion. "Then just go. There are public restrooms outside, private bathrooms in the rooms. What, you have to specifically use my room? What kind of fetish is this? Fine, if you want to go then go!"
Niu Ben still didn't move. "Dr. Lu, it's number two..."
Lu Yuan was suddenly shocked. "Don't tell me you're worried—"
Niu Ben nodded. "Dr. Lu, if I go, then won't she...?"
"I want to be with her forever..."
Lu Yuan: "..."
"So what have you been doing these past two days?"
Niu Ben: "Holding it in the whole time."
"Just waiting to come out and ask you..."
It took Lu Yuan a few seconds to forcefully restrain the discomfort in his heart. He said, "Don't worry, the essence has already been absorbed by you. What gets excreted is just the dregs."
"You two will be together forever."
"Of course, if you really care, you can also consider putting back what you pulled out—"
"To replenish it."
Hmm, Lu Yuan used a very tactful way of putting it, the meaning was conveyed and there was no need to state it so bluntly.
In that instant, Niu Ben felt extremely relieved.
The next second, bang!
He smashed his fist on Lu Yuan's desk again, turned around and rushed out without another word!
He looked as if he was in a desperate hurry to reincarnate!
Lu Yuan: "..."
After adjusting his spectacles on the bridge of his nose, Lu Yuan was very conflicted now.
Should he observe whether this guy actually went to replenish his energy?
If he did...
Hmm, this lad cannot be allowed to remain.
ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.

nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
