"Drip..."
"..."
The curve on the instrument gradually zeroed out.
Zeroing out, meant death.
This curve was the hope of Hong Zhong's recovery... everyone saw this scene.
As the curve zeroed out, hope was shattered.
The mental examiner in the hospital room stared blankly at the scene in front of him, unable to fathom how this man, who had escaped the "Old World" through countless dangers, could fall here... just minutes before, this man's vital signs were all stable.
The appraiser looked at the face that had turned pale from death.
He licked his chapped lips.
The room was so silent that one could hear a pin drop, and his extremely strained voice made this silence even more oppressive.
"Hong Zhong..."
"Confirming death."
...
...
Observation room.
Lin Lin silently watched this scene, fully aware of what the death of Hong Zhong implied... He was the only survivor of the labyrinth mission and the "Returning Hero" watched by tens of millions of eyes in North Continent.
