The atmosphere in the room suddenly became eerily quiet. No one expected that in the absence of any progress in the task, something akin to internal strife would occur.
Jiu Tian was silent for a few seconds, his brain struggling to process this information.
What do you mean he ate it all by himself?
So he took the initiative to ease the tension, "Mr. Kirk, what do you mean by that?"
"Exactly what it sounds like," Kirk replied stiffly. "I never thought someone could gain the ability to eat from the game!"
"I just feel this is completely obstructing our game progress."
Kirk's expression was very annoyed, lacking much of his previous rationality and arrogance.
If you looked closely, you could see a blood mark on his face.
That was because he failed to bring back the "fish-flavored shredded pork," causing the patient Long Liu in the room to dig out rubble from the ground and throw it at him.
Jiu Tian looked back and forth between the two, still not quite understanding.
Then, he chose to directly seek help from external staff in his live stream, as they had always been watching.
[Jiu Tian Agent, it is indeed literal. This red-masked player ate all the delivery products in this hospital by himself.]
[Not just medicine, but food too! All the food!]
[After counting, we found a total of 112 portions! It's absolutely impossible for a human to do this; the volume of food far exceeds the world record for competitive eating.]
[We speculate that this should be the opponent's Transcendent skill, extremely bizarre in level and specialty, but... currently seems somewhat useless.]
Huh?
Jiu Tian looked at the response from his team on the screen, his brain struggling to keep up. His reaction was particularly similar to Kirk's expression when he first saw Lu Ce.
Brain cramp technique!
No, is he crazy? What's he eating? Is that stuff even edible?
Isn't he afraid of eating himself to death? Is he trying to experience his superpower?
"What's the cause and effect here? Why did he eat? And why eat it all?"
"Was there no trigger?"
[Regrettably, Jiu Tian Agent, there is no cause and effect, nor any reason.]
[If there must be something, it's that he said he was hungry from the start, hungry, and just wanted to eat, so he ate everything, very... absurd.]
[Our behavior analysts have been working, but can't find the purpose of his actions, suspecting he might be mentally very unstable.]
[Compared to him, the patients in the same ward are much more normal. It's worth mentioning that the patients in his ward have had two instances of rational conversation with him, something none of your players have achieved.]
[It's just a pity that the patients are rational, but he is not, so no further effective dialogue occurred....]
Jiu Tian's brow furrowed deeper, unsure of what was going on.
No reason, no motive, yet the result obtained was relatively good...
Fing Hell, the patient is more rational than him?!
The patient can actually have rational exchanges with him?
Is there really no meaning in this?
After all, after being selected by the game and becoming a special agent, he had a long period of grassroots work experience, knowing that many things aren't as simple as they appear on the surface.
Following the rules, step by step, often doesn't get things done.
In grassroots life, it's often those who seem unruly, who don't follow procedures, that end up with relatively good results.
He didn't know what was going on with Lu Ce, nor could he think of a reasonable explanation.
[Additionally, there's one thing that needs to be very noted.]
[No matter what, do not offend him! Do not offend that person!]
[The opponent's combat power is extremely terrifying.]
Hmm? Jiu Tian frowned, this was the first time he saw a description of combat power as extremely terrifying...
At this moment, Lu Ce, who had been lying down, finally spoke, interrupting Jiu Tian's thoughts.
"Ah, it's you, the begging brother."
"What, you still haven't gotten any food?"
Lu Ce spoke words only two people could understand, lying comfortably on the ground.
Big Guy and the woman stood aside, bewildered by the situation, not knowing what they were up to.
Kirk, no longer arrogant, gritted his teeth and said:
"Those medicines are for mental patients, not for you!"
"You ate too much, and now your mind is completely abnormal, right? If you're abnormal, just quit, this game isn't for you."
"You didn't get any food, you can't blame me, getting food is my skill..." Lu Ce continued to ramble nonsensically.
"Enough!" Kirk exploded, always high and mighty in life, he had never felt such powerlessness as if talking to an idiot.
"Do you know, if I had that medicine this time, I would have made great progress, I was just a step away from complete control!"
"This hell game itself has no danger, you forcibly created danger!"
"Chinese man, I don't know if you're pretending to be crazy or if you've really gone mad."
"Those medicines are tools to clear the game, you're obstructing the game's progress, obstructing the game in the difficulty of the hell game! This will send us all to hell!"
"You either behave yourself, or get out! Get out of this game."
Suddenly, Lu Ce, lying on the ground, slightly raised his head and glanced at him.
From the red mask, it seemed as if sharp light shot out, making Kirk feel like he was suddenly targeted by a predator in the wild, his mind instantly cleared for a moment.
Lu Ce slowly spoke:
"How do you know those medicines are tools to clear the game? Who told you?"
!!
Everyone's eyes turned in unison, looking at Lu Ce lying on the ground.
He spoke human language?!
This was the first time Lu Ce uttered meaningful words, starting to converse like a normal player.
Kirk's mind also froze for a moment, and Jiu Tian was reflecting too.
It seemed that in the game's description, there was never any mention of medicines!
The medicines could alleviate the patient's condition, as written on the tray, placed together with that shit-like food, essentially considered part of the game.
What the medicines actually do, what principle, corresponding to what illness, they had no idea!
Even Kirk himself initially had doubts, wanting to use his ability without the medicines!
But in the end, they all took it for granted.
Lu Ce's voice continued, this time, he spoke with certainty.
"Those medicines are not so-called tools to clear the game."
As soon as these words came out, it was like a thunderclap, everyone fell silent, even Tom the Tin Robot, who had been motionless in the corner, turned his head to look over.
Kirk frowned, deep in thought, everyone was pondering.
This novel is available on "pawread.com".
Jiu Tian spoke:
"You mean to say?......"
"They're not game tools...." Lu Ce said, lying back down.
"That's my breakfast, ah, I'm a bit hungry again, when does lunch start?"
