"Where was this?" Zhu Ping froze, his peripheral vision swiftly sweeping over the surroundings. He found himself in a small medical room.

Zhu Ping quickly caught his reflection in the polished floor tiles beside him and saw that he still wore the face of the Federation soldier he had disguised himself as.
He immediately calmed down and analyzed his current situation.
"It's very likely that when I inscribed Origin Nine Lives, it clashed with that evil god and caused its descent to fail."

Until it was confirmed that Zhu Ping was normal, his freedom would not be guaranteed.
