Chapter 147 Guests
The female robot called him Doctor.
Could it be that...
Su Xia immediately reached into her pocket and found a thin, palm-sized notebook.
When I opened the notebook, I saw familiar words.
"Agar!"
Su Xia confirmed.
This hallucination actually made him become Dr. Aigal directly, but he did not inherit the doctor's memories.
The doctor was still very young at this time, and seemed to have just started his journey through the universe. There was no mention of evil research in his notes, only his understanding and insights gained along the way.
He also recorded the existence of some civilizations and seemed to be very satisfied with the journey.
【Today, I decided to embark on an unknown journey】
[My good friend, Ino Hastings of the ancient Hastings family, gave me the battleship he used to travel the universe when he was young]
[This battleship is very old, but it is still a priceless treasure. With my salary, I have to work from the primitive times to now to be able to afford it...]
This young doctor actually has a sense of humor and likes to make fun of himself in his records.
Perhaps it's because he's just too inexperienced.
Although he has the title of PhD, he does not earn much money and his life is not much better than that of ordinary people.
In this booklet, he expressed the voices of countless ordinary people:
[Alas, it is so hard to make money]
Su Xia deeply agreed with this statement.
He waved to the female robot beside him and asked her to control the spacecraft to land slowly while he continued to watch.
[There are many actors in the empire. They are stupid and ignorant, but they can easily make money. Why is that? ]
[Ino told me that the empire needs those actors to create cheap entertainment...]
[This kind of entertainment product is full of sensory and spiritual stimulation, which can make people on the margins of the empire addicted to it, diverting their dissatisfaction with their daily hard life, and making them unconsciously lose the ability to think about real problems in happiness...]
【……】
Before leaving, the doctor wrote down a lot of ideas in bits and pieces.
He seems to be just a young man who is full of expectations for the future and occasionally has some small complaints.
The first planet he went to was very close to his starting point and had been visited by many people.
[These people are really unreasonable. Why would they leave a trace of "I was here" on this planet? Some people even carved their names on the rocks of this planet...]
[This place is full of garbage brought by deep space travelers. There is no beauty described in the documentary at all. I was deceived by the documentary...]
[I was so angry that I ate two more energy bars...]
【……】
Seeing this, Su Xia was happy.
Aliens actually like to litter everywhere?
The quality needs to be improved and I need to reflect on this.
[…On the 206th day, I discovered a desolate planet that no one had ever set foot on. The creatures on this planet were still very primitive and were undergoing the evolution from prokaryotes to eukaryotes…]
[…On the 419th day, I came to a planet that was experiencing a big explosion of life. Trilobites dominated this planet…]
[…Day 508. I feel a little lonely, but deep space is still endless and vast…]
[…Day 724, maybe I was too sleepy, I actually started to hear voices…]
[…On the 811th day, I heard a few more auditory hallucinations. They were not dreams…]
[…Day 815. I have been suffering from insomnia for four days. I am in a very bad state. My eyes are full of bloodshot…]
【……】
"Doctor? Doctor?" The female robot suddenly called Su Xia, "Are you asleep again?"
"Um?"
Su Xia raised her head and looked at the female robot.
The female robot said: "Doctor, you have been in a very bad condition recently. Do you need a comprehensive physical examination?"
"Do you have any ideas?" Su Xia was curious about the auditory hallucinations mentioned in the notes, so she asked the assistant.
"Doctor, I suspect you may have a brain lesion."
"Lesion? Causing auditory hallucinations?"
Su Xia thought for a while, and it seemed to make sense.
At this moment, a feeling of tiredness and sleepiness suddenly came over him, but this sleepiness was quickly suppressed by another severe pain.
Su Xia closed her eyes and pressed her forehead hard. Her head ached unbearably, as if some bloody monster was about to come out of her brain...
He could even hear the monster's sharp roar in his mind.
"hiss……"
Everything happened so suddenly.
Su Xia opened her eyes and was about to ask the female robot assistant next to her how to check her brain, but the surrounding environment had changed.
He was already in the warehouse, out of the hallucination and back to reality.
The headache gradually subsided.
On the ground next to the sofa, there were more than a dozen empty doses of medicine scattered around.
It was already one o'clock in the afternoon. He had been in the illusion for more than three hours, and his psychic power level had increased to 4.4.
The experimental subject No. 27 also had level 4.4 psychic power and caused unexpected damage to Yu Tuo.
And Subject No. 28, who was pretending to be asleep, was even more powerful.
This level of strength is not enough for Su Xia to survive in Coral City, let alone go to Dragon City. He needs to become stronger as soon as possible.
[It is detected that "Daddy" is calling you on the second floor of the pharmacy. Do you want to return to Coral City immediately? ]
Before Su Xia could get used to this strength, he received a prompt.
【yes】
Su Xia's eyes blurred and she instantly arrived at her clone in Coral City.
The clone had previously refined various second-level potions under the control of the bracelet, and there were a bunch of finished second-level potions on the operating table.
The father's voice came from the second floor: "Su Xia, go and deliver some medicine!"
“Here it comes!”
Su Xia immediately put down the reagent bottle in her hand and hurried to the second floor.
Upstairs, Dad's door was closed.
But at the door, there was a box of prepared medicine.
There was a piece of paper under the box. Su Xia bent down to pick it up and saw an address on it, located in the wealthy area in the center of Coral City.
After so many days, a big customer finally placed an order in the store.
Dad's voice came from inside the door: "Go early and come back early, don't delay!"
"yes!"
Su Xia immediately picked up the medicine box and went downstairs.
In the corner of the first floor, Hong Bafu and Lan Bafu both cast envious glances at Su Xia.
The two of them also wanted to go out to deliver medicine, walk around and relax, but Dad seemed to think they were too lazy and didn't give them any chance.
The incident yesterday evening was already an exception.
After Su Xia left, Hong Bafu sighed, "Brother Su is really too hardworking, like a medicine-making machine, he never stops. Even the teacher has to find a way to get him out for a walk to combine work and rest."
"Yes, he only has 0.1 level psychic power, and his recovery ability is poor. He keeps refining medicine. Won't his hands get sore?"
Lan Bafu also looked up in confusion, and looked at Su Xia's receding back through the glass window.
After becoming an apprentice, Su Xia's performance was even more robotic than a machine.
He spends every day in self-destructive training and doesn't need his father to urge him.
Of course, there is no comparison for this kind of thing.
after all……
Su Xia is cheating.
With his current physical strength, his hands would not feel sore even if he practiced for several days and nights in a row.
After going out, Su Xia followed the instructions and took the bus directly to the city center without taking a detour.
Now, most people in Coral City think that the masked man is dead.
Many people in the wealthy areas felt relieved, stopped providing various subsidies to the refugee camps, stopped being cowardly, and started to continue enjoying their lives as before.
When Su Xia delivered the medicine, the rich man was in a good mood and gave him a red envelope of six hundred and sixty yuan as a fee for his errand.
"Thank you for your hard work, young master." The man had a gentle smile on his face, asked the servants to prepare the best tea for Su Xia, and patiently asked about the precautions of various medicines. His attitude was very good.
As a disciple of the master, Su Xia is the future master, so his status is naturally beyond doubt.
Many wealthy people who want to prolong their lives will try to establish good relationships with pharmacists in the city.
The rich people in this city will do anything to live longer; some even regularly replace their own blood with that of young people.
If this continues, young people will become the organ and blood suppliers of these rich people. I don't know how many shady underground industries will be spawned.
After Su Xia finished explaining the precautions, he looked at the time and said, "Master has asked me not to stay outside for too long, so I will go back first."
"Okay, little master, take care."
The man smiled and sent Su Xia out the door.
Su Xia put the red envelope in her pocket and walked away.
This wealthy area is peaceful and harmonious, with beautiful scenery and luxurious buildings. It is really hard to associate it with the ruins outside.
After leaving the area, Su Xia walked along the street towards the bus stop.
Many traces of the war can be seen on both sides of the street.
At the corner of an intersection, Su Xia suddenly ran into a mechanical soldier walking from the other side.
wrong……
Not an ordinary mechanical soldier, but Yu Tuo!
Why is this guy wandering around the streets using a small account instead of staying in the mechanical clan base ?
Yu Tuo also noticed Su Xia and said calmly, "It's you, the apprentice from the pharmacy."
"Hello, Lord... Lord Mayor..."
Su Xia showed panic at the right moment, lowered his head, and let his body tremble.
In terms of acting skills, he is no worse than other players!
Yu Tuo's eyes glowed blue, and he asked, "Do you want to deliver medicine?"
"Yes, that's right..."
"Who wants it?"
"Yes... Mr. Wang from No. 213 in the wealthy area ahead..."
"Oh, that fat pig."
Yu Tuo looked in that direction and spoke sharply.
But even if the rich man heard it, he would not dare to do anything. He would only force a smile and say that the city lord scolded well.
Su Xia didn't say anything on her own initiative, intending to just say a few words and leave.
But at this time, what he didn't expect was that he actually triggered a mission about Yu Tuo.
[You triggered the mission "Guest"]
[Task Description: The player "Four Seasons Rice" holds a grudge against you and is about to use his power to seal up his father's pharmacy]
[Task requirements: Please bring Yu Tuo back to the pharmacy as a guest to resolve the crisis in the pharmacy]
[Mission Reward: Pharmacist Experience Book x1; Level 3 Random Poison Formula x3]
When Su Xia saw the task requirements, she was confused.
Bring Yu Tuo back as a guest?
This request is really a bit unreasonable.
Su Xia had not expected that Sijidao had been promoted. He had previously believed that Coral City would not begin to fully believe in the Undead so early.
But now that Sijidao can use his power to seal off the pharmacy, it means that his status is not low.
Seeing that Su Xia kept her head down, Yu Tuo thought that Su Xia was afraid of him, so he asked indifferently: "What level of potion can you refine now?"
"Your Excellency, it is... it is the second level."
"Not bad, specializing in poisons?"
"Yes, it is."
Su Xia's tone was very unstable, even a little stuttering, and it was obvious that she was very scared.
Yu Tuo said, "The fourth-level potion last time was good and could hurt me. Let's try to refine that kind of potion as soon as possible."
"This... the city lord thinks highly of me..."
"Don't sell yourself short, be bold."
Yu Tuo actually encouraged him, his voice still calm: "Grow up soon, Coral City needs talents like you."
Su Xia nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, I will definitely live up to the expectations of the city lord."
"Are you ready to go back?"
"Yes, the teacher has asked me not to stay outside for too long."
"Well, time is precious." Yu Tuo nodded slightly. "I think refining medicine is also very hard. The process is complicated and requires caution at every step. It requires years of practice."
Hearing this, Su Xia's heart moved.
This Yu Tuo doesn't seem to be very familiar with the process of refining medicine.
He seized the opportunity and immediately said, "Thank you for your favor, Lord City Lord. Sir... Sir, would you like to come to the pharmacy for a cup of tea? I will show you the results of my recent studies."
"oh?"
Yu Tuo smiled indifferently, seeming to be a little interested.
He didn't think too much about it and thought that Su Xia wanted to take this opportunity to get in touch with him.
"Let's go and take a look." Yu Tuo agreed to Su Xia's request in a casual tone.
"My Lord, please follow me!"
Su Xia still lowered her head and looked a little uneasy, but there was a hint of joy in her tone and she controlled her emotions very well.
…
The atmosphere in the pharmacy was ordinary.
The two brothers put their minds at ease and focused on refining the medicine, trying to refine a fourth-level potion within the time limit set by their father.
If they fail to complete it, their training will have to be doubled, and they will not be able to survive.
After a long time, the door of the pharmacy was suddenly pushed open.
"jingle……"
The doorbell rang.
Hong Bafu was trying a fourth-level potion. At this critical moment, he couldn't relax, so he simply asked, "Brother Su is back?"
Su Xia nodded: "Yes, the medicine has been delivered, and the payment has been made."
"Were you stopped by those damn patrolmen from the Mechanical Clan on the way?"
"Emm..."
Su Xia thought of Yu Tuo behind him, opened his mouth, and hesitated to speak.
Lan Bafu, who was standing by, put down the potion in his hand and looked back.
Just one glance and he shuddered all over, and suddenly froze.
Hong Bafu felt strange.
"Why aren't you talking?"
