Capítulo 8: Chapter 8 The Unoccupied Ward_1
Translator: 549690339
Teacher Yan hurried to the window and looked around. After a while, she said with a heavy expression to the two people,
"It seems like it's the Ghost Domain. We're in trouble now."
"Ghost Domain?"
Orlina walked curiously to the window and looked at the pitch-black sky outside. She had just thought that it was some Spirit Beast using its ultimate skill to conjure up the dark clouds but now, upon a careful observation, she noticed that patches of black mist rose intermittently around her, and the inky cloud clusters in the sky were churning as if brewing something.
"This is trouble. The range of this Ghost Domain seems to include the entire Maomu City."
With a headache, Orlina said, and after pondering for a moment, Teacher Yan spoke,
"For now, we can only stay here. It's too dangerous outside, and we don't know what might happen. Qi Chen, release your Moomoo Spirit. Xiao Ji, you protect Feng Yuan well!"
Upon hearing Teacher Yan's words, Xiao Ji straightened up and let out a loud call.
Teacher Yan summoned the Meditation Child and the Myriad Sound Parrot, and after contemplating, Orlina summoned the Snow Rabbit Warrior. The small hospital room suddenly became crowded with a number of Spirit Beasts and it felt somewhat cramped. The Meditation Child was arranged to guard the window against attacks from outside, and the Snow Rabbit Warrior was stationed at the door to guard the entrance,
Looking at Ah Mu standing on guard by his feet and Xiao Ji who was looking around nervously beside the hospital bed, Qi Chen said anxiously,
"It won't be too dangerous, will it?"
"If we're not the target of the Ghost Domain's attack, there won't be much danger."
As Orlina was explaining, she took out a hair tie and tied up her shoulder-length hair, saying,
"If we are the target of the Ghost Domain's attack, then it will be a tough battle!"
"Um... is this the school infirmary?"
After a while, Feng Yuan woke up drowsily, rubbed his eyes, and sat up,
Realizing that Feng Yuan had awoken, Xiao Ji, while keeping a watchful eye around her, retreated to the right side of Feng Yuan who was propped up on the bed and rubbed Feng Yuan's arm.
"Xiao Ji? What are you guys doing?"
Feng Yuan became a bit clearer-headed and found it strange to see Xiao Ji and everyone else in a vigilant state. Without turning her head from the window, Teacher Yan said,
"We are now inside the Ghost Domain."
"Eh?"
Feng Yuan felt strange as he rolled off the bed and nearly collapsed as he tried to stand, his legs giving out. Luckily, Qi Chen was by his side in time to support him. Orlina glanced at Feng Yuan and said while keeping a watchful eye outside the hospital room door,
"You should just lie back down on the bed. Although there are no lingering issues, you probably won't have any strength for the next few days."
"Help me over there to take a look."
Feng Yuan said to Qi Chen with a smile, seeing Feng Yuan's stubborn look, Qi Chen had no choice but to help him closer to the window. Under Teacher Yan's watchful eye, Qi Chen didn't dare to bring Feng Yuan too close to the edge.
"Such a huge Ghost Domain? It's probably engulfed the entire Maomu City by now, right?" The one who has this capability must be quite strong. Wait... Aren't we at the school right now?"
Feng Yuan, having realized the situation after looking outside, was a bit astonished and looked at Teacher Yan accusingly. Glaring at Feng Yuan, Teacher Yan reprimanded,
"The school! Do you think your condition could be treated at the school?"
"Saying that would hurt my feelings, though you're telling the truth,"
Orlina chuckled lightly, teasing. Suddenly remembering something unsettling, Feng Yuan looked at Teacher Yan and said,
"How long have I been unconscious?"
Teacher Yan glanced at Feng Yuan, not quite understanding what he was getting at, and Feng Yuan said urgently,
"Hospital rooms are expensive, right? I feel fine now, let's hurry and leave!"
"It's very dangerous outside right now!"
"But staying here any longer is going to be dangerous for my wallet!"
"Alright already. You were brought here not long ago; it won't cost you a fortune."
Seeing Feng Yuan's eagerness to leave, Orlina said somewhat helplessly. Feng Yuan looked out the window dissatisfied, then suddenly pointed at something in the distance, surprised,
"Isn't that the direction of our school?"
"What!"
"Let me see."
Upon hearing Feng Yuan's words, Teacher Yan stared intensely in the direction Feng Yuan was pointing, while Orlina pushed Feng Yuan and Qi Chen aside to squeeze to the window and said while looking towards the direction where the dark clouds were gathering,
"It does seem so..."
"No! I have to go back and check, Orlina, they're in your hands now!"
As Teacher Yan said this, she rushed out of the ward with the Meditative Apprentice, and the Myriad Sound Parrot fluttered its wings and flew out after her. Seeing Teacher Yan rush out, Orlina placed her hands on her hips in a helpless posture.
"Oh boy, honestly, you're grown up but still so impulsive."
"Forget it, you guys follow me. I'll take you to a safer place. I can't defend this ward on my own."
Orlina first had the Snow Rabbit Warrior scout around the corridor before signaling for the two to follow, and they left the ward directly. Qi Chen carefully supported Feng Yuan as they left the ward.
"Let's go to the discharge office～"
Feng Yuan pleaded with Orlina as she led the way, continuously observing the surroundings as she spoke.
"Who are you going to find to process your discharge at this time? Everyone must be hiding, right?"
"Let's just check the service desk～"
"There's no danger right now, and since the center of the Ghost Domain isn't here, it's not that dangerous～"
As Feng Yuan was speaking, a ghost suddenly rushed out from the walls of the corridor and got to Feng Yuan's face before Xiao Ji could react. Ah Mu instantly released a Magic Leaf Blade, shattering the ghost that was close at hand. Xiao Ji, failing to stop the ghost, felt somewhat dejected.
"Ah Mu's reflexes are not bad, Xiao Ji. You just haven't undergone battle training yet. Don't make that face～"
Although Feng Yuan offered some comfort, Xiao Ji still seemed a bit downcast.
"Stick close to us!"
Orlina, with the Snow Rabbit Warrior, glanced around and moved back to join the two, this time constantly looking back to make sure they were still behind her. Xiao Cai stayed alert at the rear, closely observing the situation around everyone, while the Snow Rabbit Warrior held its long blade at the front, leading the way.
"Eh? The service station really is empty?"
As they passed the service station, Feng Yuan was surprised to discover that it indeed was unattended, and Qi Chen said irritatedly,
"Of course it is! Can't you see the situation we're in?"
"Then let's check the lobby～"
"Stop dreaming! I told you there's not going to be anyone."
"No, maybe we really need to go check the lobby."
Orlina, having allowed Xiao Cai to perform a life scan, looked rather somber. Qi Chen, puzzled, asked,
"What did you find?"
"There's nobody in the ward area!"
"How can that be?"
Feng Yuan ignored the surprised Qi Chen and looked out at the darkening skies through the corridor's glass windows, asking,
"What time is it now?"
"Hold on, let me check. Ah Mu, get my phone for me."
Ah Mu cheerfully responded and used its vines on the backpack Qi Chen was carrying. Qi Chen took the phone that Ah Mu fetched from his backpack and glanced at it, saying,
"Five thirteen in the afternoon, what about it?"
"Take a look at the sky."
"Is there a problem?"
Qi Chen looked perplexed as he gazed at the increasingly dark sky outside the window; soon after, the street lights began to light up one by one. Orlina's face turned grave as she watched the view outside the window.
"Has it really come to this?"
"Seems like it... but why? There shouldn't be a need to go this far, right?"
"The G Organization wouldn't go to the trouble of doing something so unrewarding. This is really strange."
"What happened?"
Qi Chen looked at Feng Yuan, unable to hide his confusion, while Feng Yuan smiled at Orlina and said,
"Looks like we can't stay at the hospital any longer～"
"Explain, please!"
Qi Chen said, somewhat annoyed, raising his voice a bit. Feng Yuan turned and smiled as he looked at Qi Chen.
