[Thank you for your patronage. Would you like to exchange another 600 points for learning the arts of basic alchemy?]
Ruan Chanchan ignored the additional pop-up and waited for the test to finish running. However, as soon as the report appeared in front of her, she pinched the space between her nose. This damned, dumb idiot!
{Patient: Idiotic r, Yuan Ni. Species: Homo Lovestupidus.
Date: 8th moon, third year of the year of the dumb mouse.
Reason for test: The Patient discovered foaming from his mouth after being manipulated by a certain female into eating a poisonous mushroom. On further investigation, the system has detected that this r has ingested Purple Death Mushrooms. A Species of mushroom that was clearly labelled as dangerous by the host. In clear words, it could be said that the host had strictly asked this moron not to eat it.}
{The thought process of this r is heavily affected by the dangerously low level of logic and critical thinking, as they have been replaced by excessive infatuation hormones.}
{Antidote of this poison: Three drops of Moonlit Dew, found near the grove of the sobbing snakes. One petal of the rose of regrets, which slls like rotten cabbage, grows near the ground where the beasts go to pull. Five grams of the roasted fire salamander tail and a pinch of the tears of the patient himself.}
{Use the alchemy kit to learn how to make this antidote, and make sure to slap the patient when awake. It would help reset his mind for good.}
[PS: The patient has lived this long due to his own idiotic luck, as idiots have their own luck. Recomnded therapy after recovery: Ask him to stay isolated for a week and learn the lesson on how not to die for love and daily doses of common sense. Both of the scrolls are available in your greatest supermarket system.}
Ruan Chanchan looked at the report in front of her for a good two seconds; for a while, she was certain that this system was pulling her leg, but then she took a look at the system that was smiling at her innocently and knew that Xiao Xi was not joking! This was really the antidote, and this was really the report. Who the hell made this report? She wanted to talk with this person. Who was he, and why was he ruining her little innocent Xiao Xi?
She sucked in a breath and turned to look at Chief Xie before saying to her, "I need soone to bring so moonlit dew, the petal of the rose of regrets and the tail of the fire salamander."
When Chief Xie heard her request, she ignored the look of outrage on the faces of the elders and turned to look at the scouts before saying to them, "Go and bring these things right away. Make sure that you don’t waste any ti; a life is at stake."
The scout warriors nodded and then turned to rush out of the territory.
"Chief–"
"Silence," snapped Chief Xie. "I will listen to whatever you have to say once Ruan Chanchan is done treating Yuan Ni, and just as priestess Yuan said, she is his grandmother. She has the right to make the decisions regarding Yuan Ni’s life and death when he is incapable of making them. So you better stay put for ." Chief Xie was a smart woman, and she had seen a lot of things in her life. Shao Xia might believe that she was really sneaky with her actions, and no one noticed anything. But she did and she didn’t like them. Not even the slightest bit.
She pursed her lips and looked at Shao Xia with an assessing gaze, which made Shao Xia stiffen. Sothing about the look that Chief Xie gave her made her feel that she knew that she was the one behind what happened to Yuan Ni. She clenched her fingers tightly, hoping against all odds that Yuan Ni would die before Ruan Chanchan could make that antidote.
If Ruan Chanchan knew that Shao Xia was waiting for her to fail, she would have rolled her eyes and scoffed at her. With her here, it was impossible for Yuan Ni to die. As long as the r even had one breath left, she would bring him back to life. Unless he himself had given up.
Inhaling sharply, she said to Xiao Xi, "Unlock the alchemy pack."
"Sure thing, darling. Exchanging 600 points for the alchemy pack!"
Ruan Chanchan gritted her teeth when she heard the notification; her heart felt like it was going to bleed. However, for the sake of doing sothing good, she held on. Anyway, as long as this r’s life was saved, the goodwill points would only double.
[Unlocked.]
[Alchemy pack.]
[Downloading Data.]
[In the first year, you learned how to make poison.]
[In the tenth year, you learned how to make their antidotes.]
[In the twentieth year, you learned how to make irreversible poisons.]
[In the thirtieth year, you learned...]
Shao Xia clenched her fists unwillingly. She looked at Ruan Chanchan, whose eyes were closed as if she were asleep and gritted her teeth.
This damned woman!
Her plan was flawless, and yet Ruan Chanchan sohow found a way to ruin it all.
Now she could only hope that either this woman would fail in saving Yuan Ni or this stupid r would take the bla on his head rather than telling the truth to everyone.
"We got them!"
It took the scout team a good half an hour before they could find the things that Ruan Chanchan had asked for and return to the tribe. Fortunately, Nan Wu went with them and took the scout team to the different regions by using her large bear form.
"Just in ti," said Ruan Chanchan as she opened her eyes and looked at the materials that the scout team had gathered. She nodded to herself after she confird that all the materials were in order before turning to look at Yuan Ni and smirked. "Looks like soone is awake."
