Chapter 125: The Last Resort
“Where are the patient’s family members?!”
Inside the emergency room, a doctor in a white coat hurried out.
Luo Ji, who was sitting on a bench in the hallway, looked stunned.
He still hadn’t seen Ye Qingxuan’s parents.
Perhaps they hadn’t returned to the country together.
Helplessly, Luo Ji could only steel himself and speak.
“I’m her friend.”
“Her family isn’t here right now.”
Upon hearing this, the doctor looked at him for a few moments, then quickly said.
“The patient’s condition is very serious.”
“Her head suffered a severe blow, causing a blood clot in her brain.”
“It must be surgically removed, but the location is very dangerous, and the surgery carries significant risk.”
“If possible, we need your signature here.”
The doctor’s meaning was obvious, if no one signed, they wouldn’t dare to perform the surgery.
But once he signed, if the surgery failed, Ye Qingxuan’s life would directly rest on his shoulders!
His heart fiercely clenched.
“Doctor, tell me, is she going to make it?”
“I can only say we’ll do our best.”
That sentence already explained a lot.
Luo Ji gritted his teeth.
At this point, he could only think of one solution.
He quickly opened his system interface, then clicked into the ‘Social’ interface.
“Invite Friend!”
[System Notification: Each player has only one invitation slot. Once consumed, it cannot be recovered. Are you sure you want to use it?]
“Confirm!”
[System Notification: Please enter the other party’s name…]
“Ye Qingxuan.”
[System Notification: Many duplicate names found. Please refine your search]
“Within a 50-meter radius of myself!!”
In his ears, the doctor’s voice urging him to sign kept ringing, almost merging with the system’s voice in his mind, making Luo Ji’s emotions exceptionally agitated.
He almost roared out loud.
[System Notification: Target ‘Ye Qingxuan’ confirmed]
[System Notification: Detecting that the target is in a ‘dying’ state. Do you wish to continue the invitation?]
“Invite! Just freaking invite her quickly!!”
[System Notification: Invitation sent. Awaiting the target’s reply…]
At this moment, the only way Luo Ji could think of to save her life was to have the severely injured, dying ‘Ye Qingxuan’ character log off from the real world while she still had her last breath!
That way, as a logged-off character, her real-world state would be fixed, and she would live in the otherworld.
He didn’t have time to consider what would happen afterward.
Even if she was separated from the real world, living was always better than dying!
That was probably the only thought in his mind at that moment.
Meanwhile, as the invitation was sent, in the emergency room at the end of the hallway, the severely injured and unconscious Ye Qingxuan’s consciousness was completely blurry.
Faintly, a sound seemed to emerge.
She didn’t know what the sound was saying, but she unconsciously responded.
From this moment on, the trajectory of her life was completely changed…
[System Notification: The target has accepted your invitation]
[System Notification: Congratulations to player ‘Luo Ji’ for receiving an Invitation Gift Pack]
The continuous system notifications in his mind made Luo Ji let out a huge sigh of relief.
The Invitation Gift Pack he received was an unexpected bonus.
He had originally thought that after inviting a player, there were only growth gift packs at various stages.
However, since the system was already installed, it meant Ye Qingxuan had been pulled into the otherworld, and her real-world character had logged off.
Her life was paused, and thus, her life was saved.
Without time to think, Luo Ji also logged into the game.
In the emergency room and the corridor outside, two figures, having logged off from their original positions, simply vanished into thin air before everyone’s eyes.
The chief surgeon, who had been standing by, constantly urging him, clearly froze when Luo Ji disappeared, then showed a look of unconcealed bewilderment.
“Huh? What am I doing standing here?”
“Oh, I remember, I have two more surgeries this afternoon.”
“I need to prepare early…”
Back in the otherworld, Luo Ji immediately pulled up his friends list and sent Ye Qingxuan a friend request.
The friend request was quickly accepted, but Luo Ji knew that Ye Qingxuan, who didn’t yet have civilization points, couldn’t send him messages.
To prevent her from getting confused by suddenly appearing in an unfamiliar world, Luo Ji quickly sent the pre-typed message.
The message content was similar to what Gao Su had sent him, but with a difference.
Luo Ji also briefly explained the car accident she had suffered in the real world and repeatedly emphasized that she must not log off!
The real-world Ye Qingxuan’s severely injured and dying state would not change.
Once she logged off, she might die instantly.
Therefore, if Ye Qingxuan wanted to live, the dying character had to remain logged off indefinitely!
After thoroughly reminding her of all the important things to note, Luo Ji let out a heavy breath.
He didn’t know what Ye Qingxuan’s state was like at the moment, nor if she could persevere.
His mood was heavy, having never expected things to develop to this point.
However, continuing to feel this heavy wasn’t going to help.
Luo Ji forcefully slapped his face to cheer himself up, then opened the system’s backpack.
Sure enough, there was an extra gift pack in the empty slot.
This should be the invitation gift pack he received for inviting a player.
He clicked to view the item description.
“Grants three hundred thousand civilization points and one Gold Treasure Chest upon use!?”
“That’s great?!”
The contents of this invitation gift pack pleasantly surprised Luo Ji.
But then he thought, each player only gets one invitation chance.
In other words, a player only gets this gift pack once in their lifetime.
When thought of as something exchanged for a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, the system didn’t seem particularly generous after all…
There was no hesitation.
He decisively opened it.
Compared to the Gold Treasure Chest, three hundred thousand civilization points were just a bonus.
Even if he randomly opened a silver-grade item, it would be worth more than that.
No sooner had this thought crossed his mind than Luo Ji quickly shook his head.
“Bad luck, bad luck!”
“What’s this about opening a Silver-grade item?”
“Bah! I’m so lucky, I’ll definitely open a Gold-grade item!”
With this thought, Luo Ji decisively washed his face with water from a pottery jar.
He rubbed his face with so much force that it turned completely red.
With a bright red face, he decisively tapped the screen.
“Come on, Gold-grade item!”
The crazy overflow of light from the treasure chest, no matter how many times he saw it, still made his eyes squint, yet he couldn’t help but strain to look.
As the item in the light and shadow gradually appeared before his eyes, accompanied by the system notification in his ear, Luo Ji’s pupils constricted, and his breathing hitched.
“This… this is…”
