Chapter 6: Poor Ouyang
This is a spacious observation room with three people inside.
Two girls, both in their early twenties and very pretty, sat in front of some precision computer equipment, carefully observing the changing curves on the screen.
A man in his sixties, with half of his hair gone, looking somewhat comical; but between his square face and broad eyebrows, there was a pair of eagle-like eyes that looked extremely stern; his physique was also exceptionally strong, with a straight waist; it seemed that this person had been a soldier before, so he looked very much like a military man, getting stronger with age!
Through the thick and transparent observation window of the observation room, it is a large medical room inside. However, the surroundings are empty, with only a medical bed placed in the center, surrounded by strange instruments.
Ouyang Xuan, this little white mouse who always causes headaches, is quietly lying on the bed, sleeping soundly!
Suddenly, the bald old man said in a low voice: "How is it? Has the patient's condition changed!? What did you find out!?"
A slightly plump woman on the left turned her head and said in surprise, "Captain, the situation is getting stranger and stranger. The patient's body temperature has risen to 105 degrees, but his heart rate and pulse are still normal!"
A slightly taller woman on the right turned her head and said, "Team leader, all of the patient's physical functions are normal, but the energy meter detected that there seems to be a huge amount of energy stored in the patient's body, estimated to be no less than five!"
The bald old man was stunned, his face full of surprise: "It really was said by Old Ginger, this person's body has more than five times the energy of an ordinary person, and with such a high body temperature, it must have undergone a mutation!"
"Then, team leader, should we inform the special action group outside to be on standby in case of any unexpected situation?" the woman on the left said.
The bald old man thought for a moment and asked the woman on his right, "Yingwu, is the patient's energy value stable?"
The woman named Yingwu on the right looked at the screen in front of her, her face turned solemn: "No, the energy meter shows that the patient's energy is still rising rapidly and has now reached 5.5!"
The bald old man's face changed slightly, he raised his left hand and pressed a button on the watch on his wrist, then said in a low voice: "Lao An, there is some trouble here, bring your people to wait for orders!"
Suddenly, this watch turned out to be a communicator as well! Immediately, a loud voice came from the watch: "Leader, understood, we'll be there right away!"
But in just about a minute, the password door of the observation room suddenly opened, and five young men wearing black suits followed a middle-aged man to walk in!
These five young men were all tall and sturdy, with fierce complexions, wearing cool shades, looking like they were from the underworld, extremely cool!
The middle-aged man, however, had a slightly awkward build, an ordinary face, and wore clothes that were similar to those of ordinary people. He looked just like a typical middle-aged uncle you might often see in a street corner or alleyway.
"Squad leader, An Qi reporting for duty with the special task force!" The middle-aged man gave a military salute to the bald old man. At that moment, his slightly hunched figure suddenly straightened up!
The bald old man nodded and said, "Lao An, the situation is a bit troublesome! This young man's body temperature has exceeded 100 degrees, and the energy value contained in his body has already exceeded 5.5, and it's still rising rapidly, it's possible that a mutation has occurred! Later on, if there's any unusual movement, we can't let him escape, lest he harm society!"
"Yes, Captain!" An Qi's warm eyes suddenly turned sharp!
Just then, a woman on the left suddenly shouted: "Team leader, something's wrong! The patient's temperature is rising rapidly, 101, 113, 115..."
"Captain, the patient's energy levels are also rising rapidly, 6.3, 6.6, 7..."
"Be careful!" The bald old man's face turned serious.
An Qi and the five cool young men behind him also immediately became alert, their faces full of tiger-like gazes, with sharp lights flashing in their eyes!
Suddenly, the various instruments surrounding the bed in the medical room emitted a crackling sound, spewing out countless sparks, and plumes of white smoke also rose rapidly inside the room. This eerie scene caused the faces of the people in the observation room to turn pale!
"Reporting team leader: The patient's body temperature continues to rise, one hundred twenty-five, one hundred thirty..."
"Reporting team leader: The patient's energy value is rising rapidly, 8.3, 9, 9.5...!"
A sudden report rang out in the observation room, and the bald old man's forehead involuntarily broke out in a fine layer of sweat, his fists clenched tightly together.
"Boom... Boom..." Suddenly, a violent explosion occurred in the medical room. Amidst the deafening roar, various medical devices surrounding the bed burst into pieces!
For a moment, fragments flew everywhere, fierce flames raged, and the entire medical room was surrounded by thick smoke and raging fire!
Immediately afterwards, the instruments in the observation room also emitted sparks, and suddenly, "Boom... Boom..." several explosions sounded, and they all spewed out blue smoke and fell to the ground!
"Squad leader, the instrument is finished!" The two women were completely stunned!
"Squad leader, what should we do? Should we go into the medical room and take a look at the situation?" An Qi said with a serious expression.
"No, wait a minute, let's see how things go! Even if there's an emergency, the medical room is made of special alloy steel, and patients can't get out for the time being!" The bald old man's eyes shone with sharp light.
"Yes!" An Qi nodded and quietly watched the medical room shrouded in smoke and raging flames, but couldn't see any situation inside at all!
"Dong---dong---" The fire alarm signal lamp on the wall lit up, emitting a loud sound and a piercing flash.
Soon, the fire emergency system in the medical room began to work automatically. Dozens of small holes opened on the ceiling and sprayed out countless dense water columns!
Water is the natural nemesis of fire, and in the dense water column, the big fire in the medical room was quickly extinguished one by one. The thick smoke also gradually dissipated, and visibility quickly recovered clarity!
However, in the gradually clearing medical room, a stunning incident occurred that left everyone speechless:
Ouyang Xuan's bed had been burned to ashes by the raging fire, and Ouyang Xuan himself was now lying on the floor, his entire body engulfed in fierce flames. No matter how fiercely the dense water jets struck, the flames showed no signs of extinguishing, instead causing the ultra-hard alloy floor to emit waves of thick smoke and gradually melt!
The fire given by Zhu Rong to Ouyang Xuan is the 'Samadhi True Fire', which absorbs the spiritual energy between heaven and earth, and ordinary water cannot extinguish it!
The bald old man's face was somewhat shocked, and he muttered: "Heavens, what kind of freak is this guy? His body temperature is abnormally high, his strength is abnormally high, and he can even sleep soundly in the fire!?"
The others in the room were also shocked and frightened, although they had seen many secrets that ordinary people could not see, but at this moment, they couldn't help feeling a little unbelievable!
Suddenly, the fierce flames burning on Ouyang Xuan's body gradually subsided and weakened, and in an instant, like a golden light, they suddenly all plunged into Ouyang Xuan's body!
"Whoosh——" The fire emergency system in the medical room did not detect any flames and the water column stopped immediately!
For a moment, the entire medical room was like being swept by an 18-level typhoon, with broken and dilapidated instrument wreckage everywhere, and dripping water puddles everywhere, chaotic and messy!
"If I'm not mistaken, this person should be awake by now!" The bald old man suddenly said.
While everyone was puzzled, suddenly, Ouyang Xuan, who was lying in the infirmary, woke up!
"Ah, what kind of place is this? Why does my whole body ache?" Ouyang Xuan slowly came to, painfully rubbing his temples and struggling to sit up.
Suddenly, Ouyang Xuan saw the 'disaster' in the infirmary and was frightened. He looked down at his body again, and it was smooth and shiny, without even a single piece of clothing (everything had been burned off)!
"Ah, mom!" Ouyang Xuan's face changed drastically, and he hastily covered his crotch with his hands, standing up in shock and looking around in all directions!
The glass windows between the observation room and the medical room are one-way, meaning that the observation room can see into the medical room but not vice versa. So, completely unaware of the commotion he was causing outside, Ouyang Xuan wandered around the medical room with a puzzled expression on his face, searching for an exit, totally oblivious to the fact that just a window away, many people were staring at him intently.
In the observation room!
"Team leader, this..." The two women had never seen a man's naked body before, and their faces suddenly turned red like ripe apples. They both turned away, not daring to look again!
"Haha...!" The bald old man suddenly laughed, his eyes full of joy!
"Team leader, you..." An Qi was somewhat perplexed!
"Lao An, this young man is a treasure! It seems that his transformation has already been completed, and what's even more precious is that his mind should still be very clear! If he can be used for the country, it will definitely be of great help to us!" The bald old man's majestic eagle eyes couldn't help but reveal a hint of 'greed'!
Anqi couldn't help but laugh as he looked at Ouyang Xuan in the medical room, who was comically covering his vitals and rolling around in circles. "The captain is right, I think this guy has had a breakthrough in fire and strength, and there doesn't seem to be any aftereffects. He's indeed a treasure!"
"What a white butt!" The five young people wearing cool sunglasses looked at each other, couldn't help but burst out laughing.
If Ouyang Xuan knew that someone was very interested in his butt at this time, I don't know if he would hit his head to death.
"Come on, let's go see this shy young man!" The bald old man suddenly showed a teasing smile!
"Haha!" Seeing that Ouyang Xuan didn't seem to pose any threat, everyone else burst out laughing too!
Then, the bald old man, An Qi, and those five cool young men walked out of the observation room and headed towards the medical room. Only the two slightly shy young women slipped away like they were escaping!
"Hello? Is anyone there?! Oyama Kaito stomped his foot in the infirmary, shouting loudly: "If someone is breathing, please come out and tell me what on earth happened!"
He shouted several times, but in the empty and desolate medical room, there was only an echo, still just an echo!
"Damn, I'm so dead!" Ouyang Xuan cried with a gloomy face, thinking to himself: "Could it be that the Fire God's powers have been unused for too long and have become rusty, sending me to some alien planet!? Otherwise, how could this place be so desolate, not even a ghostly shadow in sight!?"
