Back in the room, Huang Shengjie couldn’t wait to tear off the seal at the bottle’s mouth and take out the dication to check it.
It was still the sa tiny white pills as the Class I painkillers, with no difference whatsoever.
There were five pills inside, and Huang Shengjie poured one into his hand.
Then, he began to wait sowhat anxiously.
The sharp pain ca again!
Almost instinctively, Huang Shengjie quickly threw the pill into his mouth and swallowed it.
Soon, he felt a strange warmth spread throughout his body, and he instantly relaxed, even feeling almost euphoric.
It was as if his whole being suddenly beca transparent, understanding the rules of the World, much like entering a state of ditation or flow.
At this mont, Huang Shengjie seed to forget that he was still in the survival ga of the Walkway, suddenly filled with hope for the future, with all problems and worries dissipating.
All the pain had also vanished without a trace.
Of course, perhaps because the pain disappeared too completely, Huang Shengjie seed to vaguely experience phantom pain, even feeling like his hands and feet no longer belonged to him.
However, these minor drawbacks were soon dispelled by the wonderful sensation.
"Phew... so I just need to survive three more rounds of the ga like this, and I’m safe.
"I was originally worried it might be difficult, but now it doesn’t seem like much.
"After all, one bottle contains five pills.
"I initially thought that if one pill couldn’t ensure complete pain relief, I’d have to take a second one, which would an five might not be enough.
"Now it seems I was overthinking it."
The ga rules stated that players must achieve ’complete pain relief’ in three consecutive rounds of the ga to be considered fully cured, rather than in any three rounds within an hour.
In other words, any interruption or failure to achieve complete pain relief would result in failure, which could an the difference between life and death.
As for whether complete pain relief has been achieved, the ga provides no indication, leaving players to rely on their own feelings.
This subtle phantom pain might cause so players to believe the pain hasn’t entirely disappeared, prompting them to take a second pill just to be safe.
And that’s possibly why Zhang Yuan emphasized the need for two pills to achieve complete pain relief.
Of course, it could also be that the dication Zhang Yuan possesses is slightly less effective, necessitating two pills.
In any case, Huang Shengjie dismissed this idea, judging from his bodily condition that there was no need for a second pill.
Although he did really want to take another.
"This is a special dication, very valuable, can’t take more.
"If the price remains this way, I could consider buying another bottle just in case.
"Using it to relieve ordinary pain should work, and it’s cheaper than what can be bought in the rest area."
Temporarily removed from the risk of death, Huang Shengjie’s mind settled considerably, and the painkillers themselves also have a calming effect.
However, Huang Shengjie began to ponder another issue.
"So, this ga doesn’t actually provide ordinary players with a way to earn visa ti?
"Currently, I simply have no channel to earn dical points, at best using the 5,000 points exchanged before entering the ga to buy dicine and then safely exiting the ga.
"Perhaps sales, doctors, and representatives like Qian Li can profit from the entire dication distribution channel, but it doesn’t seem possible for .
"In hindsight, I should’ve invested dical points earlier to et with a doctor!
"As long as I could obtain dication from a doctor, I might also play the role of soone like Qian Li. Even if selling special painkillers to other players at a relatively low price, I’d earn sothing, at least recouping the 5,000 dical points spent entering the ga."
Huang Shengjie felt quite regretful, realizing it too late.
But there’s nothing he can do; after all, being a new player participating in the selection-type ga for the first ti, he wasn’t sensitive enough to many rules, making it easy for veteran players to gain an advantage. Falling behind once ans falling behind at every step.
As long as he can safely return to the Community, it already counts as a great result.
...
Zheng Chunhua waited in the review room.
Soon, three of the four doors lit up their indicators: except for the doctor Qin Cheng, whom he had t last round, all the others had sent applications to him.
Zheng Chunhua deliberately waited for a mont before accepting the application from the sales room on the left.
That is, from the other sales agent besides Chen Guangming.
Although he didn’t know Chen Guangming well, from the previous eting, this seed to be a player hard to handle.
Getting all the specific prices for dications from Chen Guangming would probably be difficult.
So Qin Cheng’s suggestion was to et with the other sales agent first.
By comparing the statents of the two sales agents, the reliability of the information obtained would increase significantly.
Soon, the other sales agent entered the review room, the one located in the upper left corner of the room’s layout, facing Zone A and Zone D respectively.
Zheng Chunhua promptly looked at her na: [Community 11 - Bai Zilan].
She appeared to be a very young girl, only wearing simple light makeup, and her hair was tied in a simple ponytail. If she wore a school uniform, she might even be mistaken for a high school student.
She looked even younger than the new player Lu Qi in the Community.
She politely bowed: "Hello, sir!"
Zheng Chunhua asked, "Did you bring the special dication?"
Bai Zilan hurriedly nodded: "Yes, I brought them all."
She also placed four different special dications on the table.
Having already understood these dications’ details, Zheng Chunhua only briefly checked the labels and seals before directly asking, "What are the specific prices for these four dications?"
However, Bai Zilan was stumped by the question.
"Uh... the specific price of each one... I couldn’t completely rember..."
Seeing Zheng Chunhua frown, Bai Zilan quickly explained, "It’s not that I didn’t rember at all. Sir, please let explain, I wasn’t intentionally withholding information from you...
"You see, there are four types of dications here, and each one looks exactly the sa except for the label.
"In the vending machine, each dication has a purchase price and a ’suggested retail range.’ The maximum and minimum prices in this suggested retail range are two quite different numbers.
"Which ans I need to rember 12 different numbers altogether.
"My mory isn’t great, and if I mix them up or confuse them, I’ll lose money when exiting the ga.
"So I simply rembered a price for each dication that ’falls within the suggested retail range,’ offers ’so profit,’ and is ’easy to rember.’
"I’m sorry, sir, I didn’t expect you’d ask in such detail.
"If you’re particularly interested in a certain dication, I can look it up and give you the detailed numbers next ti we et, is that okay?"
Bai Zilan’s attitude was very sincere, and she seed quite embarrassed by her words.
Zheng Chunhua frowned and asked, "Isn’t there paper and pen in the room?"
Bai Zilan quickly gestured: "No, there is nothing in the room to aid mory, it’s all about morization.
"Sir, if you don’t believe , you can ask the other sales agents, I’m telling the truth."
Zheng Chunhua was slightly surprised; this little mishap slightly disrupted his plans.
But he couldn’t be too demanding on her; after all, everyone has different mory capacities, and it’s unrealistic to expect all players to rember so many numbers in a short ti.
"Then tell the prices you rembered," Zheng Chunhua said, trying not to show any emotional fluctuation.
Bai Zilan nodded: "Alright sir, please wait a mont, I need to think."
She picked up the four bottles of dication from the table one by one, slightly frowning as she began to recall.
