Chapter 549 Phantom VS Purple Eyes
Before he finished speaking, wisps of pink mist began to rise from the Phantom's body.
Then--
The oppressive force descended, like a mountain crashing down on you.
The fluorescent lights on the ceiling began to flicker, and the buzzing sound became high and low, like some kind of ominous warning.
The water glass on the bedside table trembled slightly, creating dense ripples on the surface, and the bottom of the glass collided with the table, making a soft "clicking" sound.
Lin Feng pressed his back against the wall, his breathing becoming rapid.
The oppressive aura didn't fall directly on him—the phantom deliberately avoided his position, and pink mist flowed past him on both sides, like a river winding around a reef.
Zi Tong stood at the door, motionless.
The pink mist surged to within an arm's length of hers, then stopped as if it had hit an invisible wall.
Because Zi Tong also began to release another kind of aura.
Dark green.
The two forces silently tore at each other, entangled, and remained locked in a stalemate.
A few seconds later, Zi Tong suddenly exerted force in her wrist and pushed forward sharply—
"boom!"
A muffled bang exploded in the ward, and the pink and dark green auras dissipated simultaneously, vanishing like smoke blown away by the wind.
"Who exactly are you?" Phantom frowned.
Zi Tong stood at the doorway, a dark green aura slowly circulating around her, creating an eerie and bewitching beauty with her silver-gray hair and dark purple vertical pupils.
She tilted her head slightly, and a smile curved her lips.
"I am... a patient's family member."
"Of course," Zi Tong's gaze fell on Lin Feng, "she also has another identity—she is Lin Feng's friend."
"Lin Feng is a nurse on duty at the hospital," Zi Tong's voice suddenly rose an octave, "fulfilling her job duties, not a plaything for your amusement."
The Phantom's eyes narrowed.
Zi Tong didn't give her a chance to interrupt.
"Post-operative patients unreasonably harass and coerce medical staff—you're capable of doing things like that."
"I advise you to either stay home and rest."
She paused for a moment.
"Or, I'll have the hospital handle it directly!"
As the last word was uttered, the ward fell silent.
Lin Feng looked at Zi Tong's profile—an oatmeal-colored sweater, a khaki skirt, a silver-gray low ponytail, and a dark red velvet hairband swaying gently on her shoulder.
He couldn't help but silently give Zi Tong a thumbs up in his heart.
It must be said that these words were indeed spoken with force and conviction.
He almost clapped.
But he didn't.
Because the Phantom's face had turned black.
"Which eye of yours saw me coercing Nurse Lin?"
Zi Tong tilted her head slightly, her voice returning to its unhurried tone:
"As soon as I came in, I heard him call my name..."
"His tone was like he was grasping at a straw."
"It's not just like it," she corrected herself, "it is."
The phantom's gaze passed over the purple eyes and landed on Lin Feng's face.
Lin Feng quickly changed his expression to an innocent one.
Phantom withdrew her gaze and looked back at Purple Eyes.
"I was just asking Lin Feng to do his job." Her tone became more assertive. "What's the problem with that?"
Zi Tong raised her eyebrows.
"What is your main job?"
"I... have a bit of pain in my right chest, can he massage it for me?"
Purple Eyes looked at the phantom and suddenly smiled.
"I used that little trick yesterday. We're all seasoned foxes; what are you trying to pull off with this ghost story?!"
Lin Feng leaned against the wall, almost bursting out laughing.
Phantom clenched her fist tightly, her knuckles turning white, but quickly relaxed it again.
She smiled.
"Hehehe..."
"Yo—"
She dragged out the last syllable, her eyes gleaming with a mocking light.
"So it was because you were defeated yesterday—"
She paused deliberately, her gaze slowly sweeping over Zi Tong's face.
"I've been there."
The Phantom's tone became lighter.
"Looks like they're still not satisfied, so they've come all this way again to snatch him away, haven't they?"
Her fingers slowly drew circles on the blanket.
"Unlike you, I don't just resort to brute force, which only annoys people."
Her gaze shifted from Zi Tong to Lin Feng's face.
"I just gently asked Lin Feng for help, and he agreed just now. He's already washed his hands and was about to give me a massage."
She leaned back on the pillow, and the pink mist gently swirled around her, making her look like a painting.
"It's not your place to tell others what to do here."
Her voice suddenly turned cold.
"Get out of here!"
She spoke slowly and deliberately.
"Otherwise, I'll ring the call button!"
Purple eyes moved.
One second ago, she was standing at the door, a dark green aura slowly flowing around her, like a statue.
The next second—
Her hand was already raised.
An ice cone materialized at his fingertip, and he flicked it lightly.
"call out--"
The sound of something cutting through the air was sharp and short, followed by a "crack".
A crisp sound, like plastic shattering.
The red button on the call bell exploded, scattering fragments everywhere.
A black hole the size of a finger was left on the call bell panel, with jagged edges, like a screaming mouth.
The image of a cat whose tail had been stepped on seemed to say, "How dare you!"
She threw off the covers and jumped up.
"Since you enjoy meddling in other people's business so much—"
She raised her hand.
A faint, unnatural pink glow began to emanate from my fingertips.
"Then I'll show you what happens when you meddle in other people's business."
The Phantom drew an arc in the air with its hand, leaving a faint, pink heart-shaped trail in the air.
Purple Eyes' pupils suddenly contracted; she recognized the move—
[Intoxicating allure]
It is an ability that directly affects consciousness and causes people to temporarily lose themselves.
The person hit will forget who they are, where they are, and what they are supposed to do for those few seconds.
Only one thought remained in my mind—
Get closer to her.
Obey her.
The purple pupils did not fade.
Her hands were clasped in front of her, and a dark green aura emanated from her palms, condensing into a form before her—
shield.
A pink heart collided with a dark green shield.
A silent, intense confrontation, like two wild beasts tearing at each other in the dark.
Both of them swayed slightly.
At this moment, the two S-class anomalies reached a delicate balance of power.
No one benefited.
And at the edge of this equilibrium point—
Lin Feng pressed himself against the wall, silently taking one step, then another, towards the door.
Phantom and Purple Eyes stopped their attacks almost simultaneously, their peripheral vision locking onto the moving figure.
Zi Tong smiled.
"See that?" She tilted her head to look at Phantom, a hint of mockery in her voice. "The person you claim is willing to help you... turns around and tries to abandon you and run away!"
Lin Feng's hand froze on the doorknob, and he looked like a sculpture that had been paused.
Then, he slowly turned his head and looked at Zi Tong's face, which had a half-smile.
He glanced again at Phantom's face, which was visibly darkening.
He twitched his lips, forcing out an unnatural smile:
"...Your eerie aura is too powerful; I'm afraid I'll get accidentally injured."
