Morning sunlight poured through the windows of the hospital, but the atmosphere was tense.
Every staff member, from nurses to senior doctors, had heard of Lin Chen's deeds the previous night.
He walked through the main corridor, calm as ever, Authority Token glowing faintly.
Everyone instinctively gave way.
Even Vice Director Chen, standing at the end of the hall, felt the pressure and took a step back.
---
Lin Chen stopped in the central atrium.
He raised his hand slightly.
The Authority Token pulsed, sending a faint wave through the hospital.
"All staff of this hospital," Lin Chen's voice rang out, clear and commanding,
"from today onward, all medical treatment follows one rule: Patients live under my supervision.
Anyone obstructing treatment, or engaging in corruption, will be held accountable."
The hospital fell silent.
No one dared speak.
[System Notification:]
[Hospital-wide Authority Activated.]
[Influence: Entire Hospital.]
---
Vice Director Chen's face twisted in fury.
"You… you're overstepping your bounds!" he shouted.
Lin Chen's gaze swept over him.
"Bounds?"
He smiled faintly.
"I have no bounds. I only have responsibility—for life."
The Authority Token pulsed again, subtly pushing Vice Director Chen's influence back.
He felt powerless.
For the first time, he realized Lin Chen wasn't just an intern.

System City-Level Task
At that moment, Lin Chen's mind buzzed with the system's notification:
[City-Level Task Issued: Investigate Hospital Networks Across the City.]
[Difficulty: Extreme]
[Reward: Ultimate Medical Skill + City-Wide Authority Expansion.]
Lin Chen's eyes glinted with excitement.
"So, it's not just this hospital… the city itself is full of corruption hiding in the shadows."
He clenched his fists.
"Time to expand my influence. Time to show the world the true power of the Supreme Medical Sovereign."
---
Staff who were hesitant now bowed slightly, some even approaching him.
"N… Doctor Lin, we'll follow your lead."
Lin Chen nodded.
"Good. From today onward, this hospital is a fortress of life and justice.
All corruption ends here."
---
Vice Director Chen retreated silently, already plotting his next move.
He muttered under his breath,
"Lin Chen… you've gone too far. I will destroy you… even if it costs everything."
Lin Chen didn't respond.
He walked to the top floor, looking out over the city skyline.
Authority Token glowing, system activated, Divine Needle Mastery at peak—
he felt unstoppable.
[System Notification:]
[Task Progress: City-Level Investigation Ready.]
[Next Objective: Identify and Neutralize Corrupt Medical Networks Across the City.]
Lin Chen's lips curled into a faint smile.
"The game has just begun… and this city will bow to the Supreme Medical Sovereign."
