However, Calista didn’t stop. Instead, she led him to a corner of the warehouse. From what seemed like seamless wall, she suddenly pushed open a door.
“Here?”

Kallum quickly realized something. Calista was studying the K virus, so when Quintus asked, Kallum about it, he told Quintus to build an underground space. However, he hadn’t had the chance to inquire about the underground space, so Kallum wondered how Calista knew about it
They descended in the elevator, and the moment the elevator doors slid open, Calista turned to him with a smile and spoke. “Welcome to the underground space. Trust me, it’s even more thrilling than the world above.”
All the equipment had been set up, all in preparation for studying the K virus, so there wasn’t much difference from what Calista remembered. If anything had to be pointed out, it was that this batch of equipment was even better and more advanced. NôvelDrama.Org content rights.
From the moment they stepped in, the entire underground space was suddenly bathed in light. Calista pointed upward. The first thing I want to introduce you to is part of the voice control system. Did you know…” She paused briefly, curving her lips into a slight smile. “To prevent the people below from being kept in the dark from any unexpected incidents happening above, this audio system is designed in a particularly intriguing manner. If someone speaks from above, those below can hear every word crystal clear. However, if there’s chaos down below, those above wouldn’t hear a thing. Therefore, when I first arrived, I heard noises from above and initially thought it was due to poor sound insulation. Once, during a routine inspection by a prosecutor, I broke my silence and started shouting. However, the people outside continued to talk as if nothing had happened. The researchers around me watched me with amusement, not even attempting to stop me. They let me yell for half an hour. That was the first time I felt despair.
When Calista started speaking, Kallum listened intently. However, she suddenly interjected with a story that clearly wasn’t hers, leaving him utterly bewildered.
Kallum didn’t hastily interrupt her. Instead, he listened attentively. He suspected that Calista’s psychological issue was likely a form of delusion and hallucination. However, that didn’t explain how she was so familiar with that place.
As Kallum ruminated, his thoughts deeply unsettled him. However, Calista didn’t grant him the time to dwell on them. Instead, she swiftly led him to another location.
“Check this out,” Calista said, pressing something nearby. Suddenly, a small passage appeared. This passage served as an emergency exit. I once saw someone use it and managed to remember how it worked. They brought me here for an experiment once, and in the middle of the night, I seized the opportunity to bite through my restraints. I ran toward this place like a madman. I was so, so close to escaping through here.” She chuckled lightly before continuing, “However, needless to say, I failed in the end. Subsequently, they sealed off this place. The price I paid was that they broke my leg so I could no longer escape.”
Though she was laughing, her smile appeared so rigid under the bright lights. This gave Kallum an eerie sense of reality, as if all of this had truly happened before. But how could it be possible? There’s no way Calista could have gone through all this!!
“And also here…” Calista led Kallum further in.

virus, it became dormant due to my unique physiology. This made it difficult to study without my cooperation. However, if I ingested this type of fungal powder, the virus inside me would surge to its peak activity. Therefore, even without my cooperation, they could still obtain the data they wanted.”
Upon saying that, she paused, and her smile widened further. “Of course, it does have a minor side effect. It intensifies my pain, causes muscle atrophy, and severe dehydration. So, even though they spared no expense on my nutrition, I still ended up looking skin and bones in a very short time.”
She touched her own face, grinning softly. “Do you think I’m beautiful now?”
Kallum was initially unsettled by her previous statement. Upon hearing her question, he looked at her in bewilderment for a moment before he finally responded seriously, “Beautiful. You’re very beautiful.”
He found her so beautiful that there were times when he didn’t want to take Calista out simply because he didn’t want to share her beauty with anyone else.
Calista pursed her lips and patted her own face in slight embarrassment. “You probably can’t picture me, all skin and bones, covered in frightening shades of blue and purple, almost like a zombic.”
“That’s enough!” The very thought was unbearable to Kallum. How could someone I cherish with all my heart be formented to such a state by others? Gaunt, withered muscles, broken legs! How could such things have possibly happened to Calista? I would make sure anyone who dared to do this paid a horrendous price a hundred times over!
“Why aren’t you speaking?” Calista tilted her head. “Didn’t you want to know the truth?”
“All of this isn’t real!” Kallum urgently grasped her hand, only to find it icy cold, which made him hold on even tighter.
He wasn’t sure if he was trying to convince himself or others, but he repeated himself once more. “All of this isn’t real! Callie, you’re just ill. It’s all in your imagination. You must have seen the design plans at Quintus‘ place, and then you imagined all these terrifying illusions. None of it is true.”
