“No, I’m not. ” Lucia pulled a corner of Fang Heng’s shirt and rested her head on his shoulder. “When I was young, I had a special ability. After that accident, I was brought to my grandparents’ house. Not long after, a psychiatric treatment center came to my grandparents’ house. They told my grandparents that they had the ability to cure my illness and were willing to provide free treatment… ”

She continued, “At the beginning, we didn’t know that it was actually the secret research institute of Meteorite Company. Like other children with special abilities, I was a research subject of Meteorite Company. They think that children like us who have some kind of special ability are extremely special. They call us spiritual energy users. Spiritual energy users usually awaken their strength gradually from the age of three. After that, they will enter a period of trainable growth. When they reach the age of 30, their strength will completely stop growing. From the age of 3 to the age of 12, this period is the best time to train their special abilities. ”

Lucia then uttered, “Actually, it wasn’t as bad as you imagined at the beginning. I met many friends of the same age there, and they encountered all kinds of problems in their lives just like me. In that place, we didn’t have to endure the strange gazes of others like the outside world, and we didn’t have to worry about our own strength being unable to be controlled and causing damage to others. We were actually very happy during that time. ”

Fang Heng mused, “Children’s psychiatric treatment center! That’s right! That should be a place similar to the orphanage in District 7! ”

He felt that he was getting closer and closer to the truth. He asked, “What happened after that? ”

“After that… ” Lucia shook her head. “After that, we were separated, and Plan Scorpio was terminated. It was only after a long period of time that I understood. Meteorite Company discovered that after spiritual energy users came into contact with the G-virus, they were able to have a stronger mutation reaction, and they were able to control the zombie virus more freely. At that time, we were considered by Meteorite Company as the best people for carrying out research projects. ”

“We were sent to Meteorite Company’s research rooms around the world for research on virus fusion. And after that… ” Lucia’s eyes showed resolution. “I found an opportunity and escaped from there. ”

Fang Heng’s eyes narrowed.

He had guessed more than half of it correctly!

Next, as long as they found the orphanage, they would be able to find District 8’s Hila tissues and the few spiritual energy users who had stayed in the orphanage.

From those users, they would be able to obtain the next clue to uncovering the hidden mission line!

“It’s all right, ” Fang Heng comforted Lucia and patted her back gently. “Do you still remember where the psychiatric treatment center was built at that time? ”

“Hmm, I don’t remember most events from my childhood. I don’t know the specific address either. I only know that it’s in the Western region’s ice field area. I can go there with you to look for it. I remember the route there. We’ll definitely be able to find it. ”

“Let’s go and check it out together. ” Fang Heng looked at Lucia. “Are you feeling better? ”

“Yes, I’m fine. We can set off now. ”

“Really? ”

Lucia raised her head, met Fang Heng’s gaze, and gently pecked forward.

Instantly, Fang Heng’s face flushed red.

“Damn it! I’ve been teased by an NPC! ” he mused.

…

According to the information obtained from Colonel Barker, the orphanage where Lucia and the others were experimented on had been purchased by a relevant member of Meteorite Company and converted into a private manor.

Through the teleportation gates left by the Dark Knights, Fang Heng and Lucia teleported to the ice field area of the Western region, specifically a Dark Knights’ contact point that was the closest to the manor.

The two of them asked for a military truck and followed Lucia’s memories to find the former children’s psychiatric treatment center.

This time, Fang Heng was prepared.

The trailer behind the truck was loaded with a truckload of vine zombies and a few Lickers.

The two of them drove around for a long time until the next morning and stopped outside a manor located halfway up the mountain.

After getting out of the truck, Lucia looked up at the building in front of her. Memories of the past gradually surfaced in her mind.

“Fang Heng, this is the place. I’m very sure that I lived here for a few years when I was young. ”

“It might be dangerous inside. ”

Fang Heng also sized up the manor building in front of him, secretly making plans in his heart.

The previous time, he accidentally destroyed the research data in District 7, causing the follow-up mission to fail. This time, he had to change his plan.

“Lucia, there’s a lot of important information in the secret research room under the manor. Later, I’ll think of a way to lure out the people hidden inside. They should have the information we need. It’s best if we can capture them alive. ”

Fang Heng explained the next step of the battle plan to Lucia, “These people might have been modified by Meteorite Company’s virus and possess extraordinary spiritual energy, but their physical strength is not high. ”

Fang Heng stretched his wrists and arranged the mission tactics, “You stand guard at the door and listen to my instructions. We will try to capture them alive. ”

“Okay, you have to be careful too. ” Lucia set up the sniper rifle and aimed the muzzle at the door.

Fang Heng walked to the door, raised his shotgun with one hand, and fired at the door lock.

Bang!

The door lock was destroyed.

Fang Heng turned back to look at Lucia, then pushed the door open.

This time, Fang Heng deliberately made a lot of noise, trying to attract the people hiding in the manor.

The vine zombies got off the trailer behind the truck, moved their feet, and walked into the building to search.

Fang Heng stood at the entrance of the building and waited quietly.

A row of game hints began to refresh.

“Hint: you have given instructions to the zombie clones to search the building. ”

“Hint: your zombie clone has begun to search the first basement. ”

“Hint: your zombie clone has killed a common mutated zombie (agility) . ”

“Hint: your zombie clone has obtained 1 wheelchair… ”

After waiting for more than ten minutes, Fang Heng raised his eyebrows.

“Hint: your vine zombie is dead. ”

They were coming!

Common Tier 1 and Tier 2 mutated zombies could not defeat a vine parasite zombie.

Therefore, the spiritual energy users hiding in the building must have taken action.

Fang Heng strode into the hall and walked in the direction of the mutated zombie’s death.

Soon, Fang Heng saw a familiar figure in the corridor leading to the underground storage room.

It was a young man with long hair.

Swoosh!

The man realized that there was something behind him and turned his head to look at Fang Heng.

Fang Heng was also staring at him.

“Wallace! ”

It was confirmed! Wallace must be a character who had a great influence on the plot, so he existed in both District 7 and District 8!

Wallace was stunned for a moment, obviously very curious as to why the stranger in front of him was able to call out his name.

In the next moment, Wallace’s eyes were filled with killing intent.

“So you guys are just unwilling to let me go, is that it? ! ”
