Inside the Qingcheng Clinic, the group of foreigners finally managed, with great difficulty, to diagnose and operate on all the patients before them.
But after this arduous process of diagnosis and surgery, these foreigners were simply unable to withstand such intense mental pressure; after the surgery, one by one, they collapsed on the floor, unable to rise again.
Seeing this, Doctor Piero approached and said to the foreigners in a reproving tone, "The younger generation is getting worse and worse. Back when I didn't have your level of medical skill and technology, the diagnoses and surgeries were much more troublesome than what you have now."
"How many patients have you even seen? And you're already giving up? You should know that back in my day…"
Doctor Piero's incessant nagging was too much for the already mentally stressed foreigners to bear, and they all cast pleading glances at Pei Wenyu.
One of the foreigners even blurted out in Chinese, "Female benefactor, goddess, please make this big brother shut up, I really can't take it anymore!"
The players who had been eager for Pei Wenyu to step into all the traps in the instance just a moment ago were now kneeling before her, practically kowtowing in front of everyone, "Please help us, we really can't stand it!"
Hearing this, Pei Wenyu said calmly, "This isn't something I can decide. You've all heard that this NPC in the instance is willing to take care of me because of someone else's words. My speaking up won't work; the person above me has to speak up."
The blond man wore a mournful expression, "Then I beg you to use your divine powers and get the person above you to say something."
Pei Wenyu's expression remained unchanged.
"But the problem is, I don't even know who's protecting me, so I don't know what to do."
Hearing Pei Wenyu's words, everyone immediately realized the implication.
In an instant, the team that had been united against outsiders fell into infighting.
"Damn it, who was the first to provoke this beautiful lady? Go apologize right now!"
"No, who could have known she had someone backing her? And according to this instance NPC, the person protecting her isn't simple. Who the hell could have seen that coming?"
"Couldn't you have been a little more friendly from the start? That's why you'll never amount to anything, I'm telling you!"
"Damn it, weren't you trying to send others to their deaths too? How dare you say that to me?"
Watching the infighting among the foreigners, Doctor Piero shook his head helplessly and began to arrange his new task.
"Next, I need a few of you to go to the morgue and bring something back for me."
Doctor Piero handed each of the foreigners a photograph.
"Find these items in the photos from the morgue, and safely return them to my office and hand them to me. If you do that, I'll consider you to have passed and you can become official contract workers at Qingcheng Clinic."
In this Qingcheng Clinic instance, the goal of the main quest is to become an official contract worker at Qingcheng Clinic.
In other words, as long as they can complete Doctor Piero's task, they will have cleared this instance!
The group of foreigners, as if injected with chicken blood, jumped up from the ground and started running towards the elevator, afraid of falling behind.
Seeing this, Pei Wenyu wanted to ask Doctor Piero for a photo as well, but the latter shook his head.
"You don't need a photo. Just come to my office with me."
Seeing the puzzled expression on Pei Wenyu's face, Doctor Piero explained, "I can directly sign the official contract with you. You can directly clear this instance and then gain the qualification to go to the Chaos Boundary."
Nodding to show that she understood, Pei Wenyu then looked in the direction of the elevator, "Don't they need to wait a bit? What if they complete your request?"
To this question, Doctor Piero only revealed a chilling smile.
"Let me tell you a secret, Qingcheng Clinic… or perhaps I should say Qingcheng Hospital… for as long as it has been established, how many people do you think have been able to find the correct items from the morgue and return safely to the elevator, arriving at my office…"
Pei Wenyu shook her head, giving an honest answer, "I don't know."
Doctor Piero smiled.
"Only one person has done this.
"And this person is now the only one in Qingcheng Clinic, besides me, who is officially recognized and qualified to serve as an attending physician.
"This person is also the one protecting you."
After saying this, Doctor Piero glanced in the direction of the elevator.
"Perhaps now, those people should be about done."
Inside the morgue, the corpses that had fallen due to extreme cold had become extremely stiff.
The foreigners who had been lively and eager to go to the morgue to find the designated items just moments ago.
In less than a few tens of seconds.
Had already been frozen to death in the morgue.
——
Hearing the sound of chips falling, Shen Yu felt around in his bag but couldn't find his spear, which he found somewhat difficult to accept.
Standing in the middle of the road in the Michael Casino, Shen Yu furrowed his brow and looked at a man in a suit walking towards him, revealing a determined look.
"Mr. Shen Yu, is it? Michael Casino has been waiting for you for a long time. Please come with me to the gambling room."
Shen Yu said coldly, "I don't gamble. Give up."
Michael chuckled, "You're… so resistant to gambling?"
Shen Yu: "Because I'm not smart. If I gamble, I'll definitely lose, so I absolutely won't gamble."
Michael: … What a simple and easy-to-understand reason.
"Please rest assured," Michael still maintained a business-like smile, "I will not ask you to engage in any gambling behavior, because someone has already given instructions to directly let you complete the task you need to perform. As for other things, I will not interfere."
Hearing this, Shen Yu's expression became even more puzzled.
"Someone gave instructions? Who is it?"
Michael cleared his throat, "I'm sorry, for such extremely distinguished SVIP-level users, there are confidentiality agreements, and we cannot easily reveal the other party's identity. However, I can only tell you that this person… has extremely high gambling skills, so much so that even I, going all out, cannot cope with them."
Hearing this, Shen Yu immediately reacted.
"Could it be Yan Yichen?"
Michael: "It seems your brain really doesn't work well."
