"Hey, you know, I owe my life to this armor for being able to see you alive." Li Zheng moved his hand, and the armor disappeared from his body, being stowed away into a capsule ho.
You have to admit, this Earth Dragon Armor made by Li Chun ca at just the right ti, and with perfect timing!
If it weren’t for the Earth Dragon Armor’s exceptional defense, even if Li Zheng only took part of the blast, it would’ve been a near-death experience, and it wouldn’t have been as simple as a couple of broken ribs.
"Alright, it’s just a piece of armor, and you’re already putting on airs." Xiao Siyuan grumpily pressed on so of the broken ribs, assessing the injury: "Not bad, just broken, no bone displacent, you got lucky."
"Xiao Lin, drag him to the dical bed, and I’ll check his internal organs again."
"Okay, Doctor Xiao."
Lin Fengjiao was visibly relieved upon hearing Li Zheng was okay, careful as she helped him up and led him to the living quarters.
Li Zheng grimaced, saying, "Why check? My status bar already shows it, broken ribs, lung damage, heart hit hard."
"Status bar? What status bar?" Lin Fengjiao, not paying attention initially, suddenly realized and asked curiously.
Li Zheng knew he had slipped. The status bar was a convenience brought by Prelis’ Eye, and other than a few others with the Old Prel physique, no one else had such a feature.
His mind spun as Li Zheng replied, "Oh, it’s a special genetic ability I developed, which lets display my status on a data panel, kind of like in an online ga."
"So that’s it, Brother Li even has such an ability, amazing!" Lin Fengjiao didn’t think much of it. Given the oddities in the Matrix’s genetic abilities and Li Zheng’s higher-than-average strength, she wasn’t surprised he got such a thing.
"A good thing or two, and you’re already swaggering." Xiao Siyuan walked ahead to open the door, letting them in with a jerk of his head: "Lie down there."
With Lin Fengjiao supporting him, Li Zheng went and lay on the dical bed, while a few chanical arms transford into various tools under Xiao Siyuan’s manipulation, comncing treatnt.
"To be honest, whenever I see these chanical arms, I always think of Doctor Octopus, and feel like I’m Spiderman getting dissected and studied by him." Li Zheng gritted his teeth, enduring the pain from the "bone-setting."
Xiao Siyuan stood at the console, not lifting his head as he said, "Spiderman can’t compare to you. That series is at most prefixed with ’extraordinary,’ but today you even killed an extraordinary life form."
"Yet I’m still lying here, aren’t I?"
Xiao Siyuan finally looked up, pensively saying, "You’re right. By the sa reasoning, I’m better than you."
"..." Li Zheng was silent for two seconds: "Haven’t seen you for a night, you’ve gotten humorous."
"I’ve always been humorous, it’s just that you didn’t notice before." Xiao Siyuan manipulated the controls, with one chanical arm’s tip turning into a hollow needle tool.
"You ca just in ti today. I’ve developed a new drug with good healing effects on internal injuries, but there are still so unknown effects I haven’t figured out. Your physique is quite strong, help test the drug."
Saying this, Xiao Siyuan waved, summoning a syringe filled with blue liquid.
[APX-1
Tier: Unknown
Type: dical Equipnt
Effect: Extrely strong healing effects on internal organ damage.
Description: A new drug created by Xiao Siyuan using his ability mixed with certain dications.
Note: The product still has unknown effects, use with caution.]
Weird.
Li Zheng wore a peculiar expression; even soone as omnipotent as Old Prel couldn’t ascertain the so-called "unknown effects"?
"Hey, old Xiao." Li Zheng felt so reluctance. He wasn’t too keen on injecting sothing with unknown effects into his body: "I haven’t offended you recently, right?"
"Nope."
"Then why are you bent on harming ?"
"Harm you? How did I harm you?"
"Haven’t hard ?" Li Zheng struggled, held down by a chanical arm and limited in movent, "Damn, you’re using as a guinea pig for your drug test, isn’t that harm?"
"It’s just one dose, no risk of death, what’s there to fear?" Xiao Siyuan raised the syringe, saying calmly.
"No risk of death?" Li Zheng shouted: "You’re saying it so easily, how do you know it’s non-toxic and won’t be life-threatening?"
"Of course I know."
"How do you know?"
"I injected myself."
"..."
"Twice."
"..."
"Otherwise, where did you think the definitive effect in the description ca from?"
"..." Li Zheng looked at Xiao Siyuan with a shocked expression, "Are you crazy? The new drug’s effects are unknown, and you dared inject it into yourself?"
"Soone’s got to do it." Xiao Siyuan seed nonchalant about it.
"Since you’ve injected yourself, why don’t you simply inject yourself again and figure out the drug efficacy?"
"Didn’t I just say?" Xiao Siyuan said calmly: "I’ve injected two doses into myself."
"...!" Li Zheng recalled it was indeed the case.
"This drug has tolerance; the sa target can only be injected once in a short period, with no effect from multiple injections." Xiao Siyuan installed the syringe onto a chanical arm: "Neither injection hard the body, so I have confidence in persuading you to help test the drug."
"Are you sure there won’t be any weird side effects?" Li Zheng remained suspicious.
"Relax, would I harm you?" Xiao Siyuan grinned, showing his white teeth.
"Well..." Li Zheng wanted to say more, but Xiao Siyuan’s expression changed, pressing a button on the console.
The chanical arm with the new drug suddenly plunged, injecting the new drug into the vein without leaving a drop.
"Damn, you...!" Li Zheng saw this, his eyes widening in rage, about to curse.
However, as the drug entered his body, nothing unusual happened.
On the contrary, his previously burning lungs and heart, under the treatnt of the new drug, began to rapidly recover, proving to be much more effective than the specialized internals-healing nanobots!
Moreover, Li Zheng’s heightened Spiritual Power sharply noticed so of the dication flowing into an unspeakable area along the blood vessels.
After a while...
"Damn! This drug’s amazing, old Xiao, give another shot!" Li Zheng sensed a secondary developnt in a certain area, his face lighting up with joy, and he imdiately changed his tune, eagerly asking for another shot from old Xiao.
"In your dreams." Xiao Siyuan seed to ponder, nodding: "Looks like the other effect is indeed correct. I’ll ask Chu Xiao later, see if he’s willing to try a shot."
"Don’t be stingy! Such a great thing, give another shot!" Li Zheng shouted.
Xiao Siyuan rolled his eyes: "Didn’t I say already? Only the first shot is effective, even if you get injected a hundred more tis, it won’t have that effect."
"Ah? That’s such a pity!" Li Zheng smacked his lips with lingering interest.
Just one shot, and a secondary developnt increased by about a quarter, truly a divine artifact for n!
