All players: I can choose my own dungeon rewards.

"No, he should still be saved. Let me go in and try."

As soon as the expert finished introducing Captain Li's situation, Wang Zhifan answered decisively.

As a result, the expert immediately shook his head and said in a very helpless tone:
"Mr. Wang, it's not that I don't trust you top players in the country, it's just that Captain Li's condition is too strange. In the past half month, many people have claimed that they have the ability or high-level props to save Captain Li, but in the end, none of them really worked..."

Without waiting for the forty-something expert in front of him to finish complaining, Wang Zhifan waved his hand and said decisively:
"Please let me try! What if it works? As long as we can save Captain Li, the risk is not worth it!"

For a moment, the relatively young expert was impressed by the aura emanating from Wang Zhifan. He thought for a moment, then turned around and walked towards the next door to Captain Li's room, leaving a message:

"Well, you can only go in for ten minutes at most. If you exceed ten minutes, we are not sure if we can restrain the guy inside who is not sure if he is still Captain Li."

"Thank you, ten minutes is more than enough."

Seeing this, Wang Zhifan knew that the other party agreed to let him go in and try, and immediately thanked him.

So after a series of preparations in the special ward, Wang Zhifan, who had been waiting for nearly twenty minutes, was finally allowed to enter.

He was asked to put on a full-body protective suit and entered the special ward where Captain Li was through a special gate. Captain Li was no longer paralyzed on the hospital bed as before. His bed had turned into a complex octopus-like machine that bound his entire body tightly, including all his limbs that had become strange and inhuman, and he could no longer move at all.

When Wang Zhifan got closer, he discovered that this restraint device was not limited to the physical level. It actually contained extremely powerful supernatural energy, which meant that even if the target it bound was a powerful being on the mysterious side, it would have to drink a pot of water.

Walking slowly to the bedside of Captain Li who was completely restrained, Wang Zhifan further observed Captain Li's condition through the fully enclosed protective goggles in front of him. It was difficult to tell whether he was a human or a ghost. He had actually come to some conclusions just now outside the transparent glass. Now that he was closer, he could perceive more clearly and basically determine the reason for Captain Li's current condition.

What the experts outside said was correct. Captain Li was indeed cursed by a powerful and strange thing, and it seemed that his body was gradually taken over, turning from a human into more like a shadow monster, but these were actually just appearances.

Wang Zhifan's extremely powerful perception told him that neither the human-shaped head on the hospital bed nor the monster-like black shadows were actually the real Captain Li. They were essentially monsters that looked very much like Captain Li. The real Captain Li was being tied up in another place, and there was a weak but tenacious extraordinary connection with this strange thing in the outside world, which was the only hope for Captain Li to be rescued.

"I'm going to start trying treatment, and there may be some unpredictable abnormalities in the process."

After observing closely for a few seconds, Wang Zhifan spoke to the outside world through the microphone built into the protective suit helmet.

The person who met him outside was the middle-aged expert in charge of this place. The expert thought for a moment and answered:

"You can treat it however you want, as long as it doesn't damage our restraints. It will ensure that no major abnormalities occur within ten minutes."

From his words, we can know that the expert is full of confidence in the equipment of the special ward and believes that as long as Wang Zhifan does not mess around, nothing bad will happen.

But after listening to this, Wang Zhifan just wanted to say that the expert’s thinking was too simple, and then he started to operate.

First, he stretched out his arms and palms, which were completely covered by protective clothing, and approached the "monster" on the bed. Then he twisted his fingers, and a thin line suddenly appeared in the center of the monster's body, connecting all the way to the air near the wall and disappearing.

The expert who was observing outside suddenly changed his expression when he saw this, and immediately said in surprise:
"What is this string? A special item?"

It can be seen that he thought that the line was created by Wang Zhifan, but he didn't know that the line had always been there, and what Wang Zhifan did was just to make it visible.

Wang Zhifan was very focused at this moment. He mobilized his own strength to extend along the thin line and followed it into the unknown area.

Soon he felt an almost infinite darkness, and beyond the darkness was a chaotic blood-red color. Breaking through the deep blood-red color, he could find a young man holding a Han sword in the innermost part, fighting tirelessly against the scarlet weirdness that kept attacking from all around.

"Captain Li!"

When Wang Zhifan saw the figure, he immediately exerted his power to make a sound, but the man who was fighting with the sword did not have any special reaction. He was still tirelessly and meticulously dealing with the enemies attacking from all around.

"Did he mistake my voice for an illusion to confuse him? As expected of Captain Li, he doesn't leave any room for error for his opponent."

After thinking about it, Wang Zhifan stopped shouting in vain. Instead, he concentrated the power he had transmitted into it and suddenly exploded, causing all the scarlet weirdness in a large area around Captain Li to shatter.

As a result, Captain Li, no matter how cautious he was, knew that something was wrong. He looked around in surprise. Wang Zhifan took the opportunity to make a sound and called out to him:
"Captain Li! I'm here to save you!"

"who are you?"

Captain Li remained wary after hearing this and did not show any surprise, but this also reflected that his memory was not very good and he did not recognize it was Wang Zhifan.

"It's me! Wang Zhifan! You were in the Guodu training camp when we last talked on the phone! I also told you that a player named Huang Neng asked me to thank you for saving his life. Do you remember?"

"It's you?! Why are you here?!"

In an instant, Captain Li basically believed what Wang Zhifan said, because only the two of them knew what Wang Zhifan said.

But Wang Zhifan couldn't give him a long explanation, so he immediately replied:
"Don't say so much! I can feel that your body is close to the limit. I will show you the way now. You rush out along the route! When you reach the end, I will use my strength to pull you out!" Captain Li hesitated for a moment and responded loudly:
"Okay! I believe you! I'm really almost at my limit. Even if you are a monster in disguise, I won't admit defeat! I'm going to die anyway!"

From his response, we can know that even though Wang Zhifan produced verbal evidence to prove his identity, he did not completely believe it. But he had no choice. If he continued to stay here, he would soon be exhausted to death. He might as well give it a try.

Wang Zhifan also acted decisively. He immediately mobilized his power to break a path in the chaotic blood color, guiding Captain Li to escape outside. Then he mobilized his power to create a bright path in the boundless darkness, leading Captain Li to the connection of the thin line.

This method of rescue may seem a bit slow, but it is a safe choice, because Wang Zhifan had long discovered that if he exerted all his strength, he would indeed have hope of bringing Captain Li out directly, but in that case, the buildings outside could basically not be saved, and Captain Li would likely suffer great harm.

The fundamental reason is that this strange space is not a pure alien world, but a very idealistic existence. It is a combination of unknown alien objects and Captain Li's essential soul. It is not very meaningful to break it by relying on the laws of space. If the movement is too loud, it will be fed back to Captain Li. That is, if this strange space is completely destroyed, Captain Li will die immediately.

Therefore, after comprehensive consideration, Wang Zhifan could only be gentle, causing little damage to help Captain Li reach Wei Xin's border, and then he would make a all-out effort to rescue him.

The two cooperated well throughout the whole process, as if they were partners who had worked together for many years. When Captain Li finally reached the idealistic boundary, Wang Zhifan's palm instantly burst out with powerful force of laws, forcibly pulling him out. At this moment, Captain Li would suffer some injuries, but it would definitely not be very serious.

So the expert who was observing through the glass wall outside the ward soon saw a scene that shocked him extremely. He saw the monster "Captain Li" lying on the hospital bed motionless, but Wang Zhifan pulled out a person out of thin air, and this person was still alive, and looked exactly like Captain Li!
"Finally you got out! Brother Wang, I owe you my life!"

As soon as his feet touched the floor of the ward, Captain Li looked at Wang Zhifan in front of him with a tired and happy face and said that his body was very close to the limit at the moment, but the joy of escaping death gave him new strength in his limbs and his spirits were lifted.

Wang Zhifan glanced at him and confirmed that he did not need any additional help, then responded:
"Captain Li, you need to rest now. We'll talk again after you've recovered."

"Okay, but what's on this?"

The tired Captain Li had the same idea, but he noticed the thing tied to the bed and couldn't help feeling very confused.

"Some kind of monster trying to replace you."

Wang Zhifan tried to organize his words to express his understanding.

"This monster originally wanted to completely replace you, so it sunk you into an alienated spiritual world, intending to completely devour everything about you. But it didn't expect you to be so difficult to deal with and persisted until now, so you slowly tortured it to death..."

All of these are Wang Zhifan's speculations based on the current information. There will be deviations in details, but it is almost correct. After all, there is an extremely special connection between Captain Li and this thing outside, which is undeniable. It is also thanks to this connection that Wang Zhifan was able to rescue Captain Li.

After hearing the explanation, Captain Li wanted to say something, but soon several management bureau personnel wearing full protective clothing came into the closed ward, took Wang Zhifan and Captain Li away separately, and entered the special investigation process.

Wang Zhifan didn't have much to worry about. He just needed to talk about how he rescued Captain Li and what situation Captain Li encountered. It wouldn't take long for him to regain his freedom.

Captain Li's situation is more complicated. He has to fully prove his identity and confirm that he is not some kind of fake. He may have to go through some special identification methods, which is estimated to take more than one or two days.

The expert who received Wang Zhifan participated in the subsequent questioning of Wang Zhifan. He was very surprised that Wang Zhifan could "fish out" another Captain Li out of thin air. Wang Zhifan then told all his speculations to prevent these experts from taking detours.

In fact, it is not because the experts are not smart enough that they have not been able to rescue Captain Li. What they lack is mainly strong enough perception or means of detection. Otherwise, normal people would not be able to imagine that Captain Li would be sealed in an idealistic space.

Then, even if the management bureau has sufficient detection capabilities, it may not be able to pull Captain Li out of the idealistic space. This requires very complicated things, requiring both super-high power essence and demanding fine control. Basically, only Wang Zhifan can easily meet the requirements.

After the entire inquiry process was over, the expert immediately invited Wang Zhifan to stay in Guodu to help. Although it has not yet been confirmed that the person rescued was Captain Li, the expert's intuition told him that he was definitely correct.

Wang Zhifan naturally would not agree to work here forever. He came to rescue Captain Li for a necessary purpose. Considering that Captain Li would still be investigated for a few days, he quickly said goodbye and left, and returned to Dongjiang City on a flying saucer.

If it were an ordinary person, he would definitely be asked to stay and cooperate with the investigation at this stage, but Wang Zhifan has cooperated with the Administration many times. The Administration will not forcibly stop him if he wants to go back. After all, Dongjiang City is also in China.

On the way back in the flying saucer, Wang Zhifan discovered that the flying saucer would pick up passengers from time to time. Upon asking, he found out that they were basically players preparing to participate in the Second World War. This indirectly proved that Xia Guo was preparing for this disappointing event and had never chosen to give up.

But this made Wang Zhifan think of a question. Xia Country was preparing intensively, but what about other countries besides Xia Country? Are they ready to contribute to the world war? If only Xia Country and a few other countries in the entire Earth were to bear the risk, it would be too unfair. He didn't know how to solve this problem.

Wang Zhifan himself is almost certain to participate. If the intensity of the World War is not too outrageous, he can help Earth Star win. But if the World War is really as said on the forum, and the reward is only a trophy with no practical use, he will basically not participate in the second round. At that time, the fate of Earth Star can no longer rely on him.

Being a free babysitter for the whole planet is impossible for him. He is a person who does not accept moral kidnapping. It is okay for him to do good deeds occasionally, but it is absolutely wishful thinking to ask him to always be selfless.

In extreme cases, his plan is similar to that of the Administration. He plans to move his base to other worlds and help the few people he cares about.

After returning to Dongjiang City, as it was still early, Wang Zhifan started his upgrade plan and selected a special book to start his strategy.

He currently has a batch of black special books in his hands, and has also posted a new black special book purchase post on the forum, so the copy resource reserves are quite abundant.

Considering that he had gained myth points in the last special dungeon, he mainly chose mysterious dungeons during the selection process, especially those that might contain powerful opponents, hoping to have a chance to gain more myth points after entering. (End of this chapter)
