“Shall we go to my dorm first?” 9993 lowered her head and asked softly.
“…To the Rest Room…” Yun Ruoxi answered haltingly, her body still trembling like a leaf.
“All right.” After a moment’s thought, 9993 nodded in agreement.
The Rest Room was safe as well, and the field therapy machine inside might even be able to heal Sister 2195’s mental trauma.
She cradled the light-as-air Yun Ruoxi in her arms and broke into a light jog.
As they reached the end of the corridor, the sounds of fighting behind them gradually faded, and Yun Ruoxi’s trembling lessened.
Her right eye slowly moved, and her neck strained to turn to the right, as if wanting to look back once more at Lin Zhen and the others who had fought for her.
But before she could see clearly, 9993 had already turned the corner with her.
The blue-haired girl gently pursed her lips, turned her head back, and snuggled into 9993’s embrace like a little kitten seeking warmth—far from the dignified “Sister” demeanor she usually displayed around her, more like a neglected child, a little sister in need of affection.
But even this version of Sister was adorable…
Watching her, 9993 felt her heart begin to melt.
But soon after, a heavy guilt weighed on her.
Right now, it was clearly Sister 2195 who was injured and vulnerable, yet here she was, lost in idle thoughts.
The Rest Room wasn’t far from the Training Room, and the Therapy Room was close to the Physical Training Grounds, allowing trainees to receive treatment promptly after training.
The overall layout was very reasonable.
From this, it was clear the Battle Camp could actually treat people like humans—but unfortunately, they chose not to.
A few minutes later.
With a muffled thud!
9993 knocked the Rest Room door open with her back.
The large room was empty. She carefully placed Yun Ruoxi into the nearest field therapy machine.
“Mental trauma detected. Initiating Therapy Program!” A gentle female voice issued from the device.
9993 squatted by the machine, forcing a smile. “Sister, sleep now. When you wake up, everything will be fine.”
“Mm!” Yun Ruoxi weakly nodded.
Buzzing!
The field therapy machine slowly powered up, a soft energy field draping over the blue-haired girl like a delicate veil.
She closed her eyes, her breathing gradually steadying, the panic and helplessness on her face replaced by peace.
Only then did 9993 finally breathe a sigh of relief, turning to close the Rest Room door and leaning against the machine to sit down slowly.
Tilting her head, she watched the girl’s serene sleeping face and suddenly laughed softly.
Hehe… I really didn’t expect it.
That I could actually help Sister 2195!
“Keep it up!” A fighting spirit ignited in her eyes as she clenched her fist tightly. “Next target: break into the Five Thousand!”
9993 continued to keep watch over Yun Ruoxi.
But before long,
Her little head slowly drooped, and soft, faint snores emerged.
After so many rounds of virtual battles and dying several times, she was actually quite tired……
One group after another passed through the Rest Room.
As dusk fell, Yun Ruoxi stirred awake, earlier than she herself had expected.
She slowly opened her eyes; the missing field of vision had returned, and her stiff right eye moved freely again.
The best performances were always seventy percent truth and thirty percent deception.
A master-level actress could fake being sick, but she couldn’t fool the Battle Camp’s precise instruments…
So to ensure the plan went smoothly, her previous blindness and pain were not acting but real psychosomatic responses caused by mental trauma.
During the torture, she had even turned off the pain-blocking function, relying solely on her stubborn Willpower to endure.
“Still, waking up this early is a bit surprising…..”
Yun Ruoxi stretched inside the machine; her shirt lifted slightly, outlining a slender waist.
Before executing this plan, she had made an educated guess based on what she had learned.
Mental trauma of this degree would most likely cause at least a full day and night of unconsciousness.
Yet here she was, awake in less than six hours.
Thinking it over, she decided to spend a hundred popularity points to ask the system about this.
【Willpower Attribute can increase mental resilience and accelerate recovery from mental trauma】
“I see, so my S-level Willpower isn’t useless after all.”
Yun Ruoxi nodded knowingly and naturally turned her gaze to the Anime Screen in the upper right corner.
At some point, the conflict between 0001 and the main group had come to an end. The screen now showed a scene where the main group and 0001 were being punished together.
They all wore gray weighted vests, sweating heavily as they ran laps around the training ground.
Behind them trailed the Punishment Robot spraying jets of water bubbles.
It seemed they had completed one lap.
The black-haired Fatty had already collapsed at the starting point, rolling left and right under the bubble spray, gasping for breath on the ground, unable to get up.
At the front of the group, 0001 was still contending with Lin Zhen and the others, the five of them chasing and challenging each other.
Even though they were all at their limits.
In the distance, Instructor Xiaguang and Instructor Bimeng stood together, watching them coldly.
“Wait, being punished? What’s going on here?” Curious, she dragged the progress bar back to the time right after she left.
After enjoying a round of intense cursing between 0001 and Lin Zhen, Yun Ruoxi relished the well-produced fight scenes—mainly watching 0001 getting beaten up.
Tsk.
In the extremely spacious corridor, with no obstacles dividing the battlefield, facing five opponents skilled in martial arts simultaneously—even for someone as strong as 0001 before mastering supernatural powers—he was already barely managing to cope.
The mighty 0001 being chased and beaten by Lin Zhen and the four others showed no trace of the confident flair he had on the arena.
Trainees leaving the Training Room stopped in stunned silence at the scene.
They hadn’t expected, after witnessing Sister 2195’s misery, that anyone would dare directly confront 0001 head-on.
Although they didn’t dare offend 0001, they still dared to hide in the crowd and make a few scoffing, mocking sounds while watching.
These scoffs mixed disdain for 0001’s bullying of 2195 and excitement at seeing a genius humiliated.
“Good job, beat him hard!”
“The latter half of this episode is all budget-burning fight scenes; the production team really went all out.”
“Why does it feel like Lin Zhen’s strikes are getting harsher?”
“Bro, if it were your wife being bullied, I bet you’d hit even harder.”
The crowd in the corridor grew as more trainees were drawn in by the commotion.
The fight between 0001 and Lin Zhen’s group grew more intense, their moves visibly vicious.
Yun Ruoxi narrowed her eyes, suddenly noticing something very peculiar.
Just as the barrage of comments said.
During the fight, Lin Zhen was the one hitting harder and harder, every move aimed at killing or maiming, steadily increasing the battle’s intensity.
But 0001 was the exact opposite, striking with restraint. There were several chances where he could have dealt fatal blows but held back, maintaining control over the fight’s ferocity.
Lin Zhen was always calm and rational. Even if angry, he wouldn’t lose his head…
Could it be that he was deliberately trying to escalate things?
