Member System X Thoughts on Syringes
At night.
Men Qi and Xiahara displayed their superb culinary skills, preparing a sumptuous feast for everyone.
It must be said that the taste of this meal was absolutely superb.
Especially for people like Light and Kurapika who had never tasted the Gourmet Hunter before, the ultimate deliciousness rushed into their minds like a tidal wave.
During the meal, both of them were somewhat dazed, devouring the food without reservation, constantly exclaiming, "Delicious! Delicious!"
Biscuit and Qiduo were clearly people who had tasted the food of Gourmet Hunter before, so they were mentally prepared and ate with elegance and composure.
After a lavish feast...
Kevin returned to his room, sat at his desk, and fell into deep thought.
The conversation between Baitian and Biscuit was still vivid in his mind, and many thoughts continued to emerge from his mind.
He needs to carefully plan his "business".
While pondering, he wrote down the words "[Member]" and "[Supplier]" on the paper.
That's right, he thought of a [membership] system.
For a shop like his that mainly sells high-quality goods, this system is undoubtedly the most suitable and perfect. As for non-member customers, it's not that he won't sell potions, but he will set very strict restrictions.
The simplest approach is to sell a very limited quantity of the potion, and it must be Nen user.
As he pondered this, a good set of rules and regulations gradually took shape in his mind.
First, the store's target customers are clearly defined as Nen user and Hunter x Hunter. As for politicians and wealthy businessmen, Kevin plans to entrust Light with the business dealings related to them.
Politicians and wealthy businessmen certainly count as connections and resources.
Kevin could easily hand over these connections to Light, because maintaining these kinds of connections requires effort.
Banquets, gift-giving, dinner invitations, and exchanges of favors are all ways for these wealthy and powerful individuals to maintain their networks.
Although Kevin is now involved in some business, he doesn't want to put all his energy into it, so he'll leave these ordinary business dealings to others.
These people are different from Hunter x Hunter and Nen user, and the way they interact with each other is also different.
He and Light had a close working relationship, almost inseparable.
Both sides can leverage each other's networks and resources, and interacting with and maintaining relationships with these non- Nen user is also beneficial.
Light is better at it.
He would be delighted even if such a task were entrusted to him.
Only when each person performs their respective duties can they obtain what they desire.
Kevin believes this would be a good choice for Red Stone Pharmaceuticals.
Therefore, Kevin plans to give Light a batch of potions he has concocted at that time, so that he can handle the distribution.
As for which potion is most suitable for these wealthy and powerful people, that's up to Light to choose.
Kevin would grant this right to close partners.
His own shop will operate on a membership system. Ordinary Nen user users will be registered and allowed to purchase one potion only every quarter, six months, or a year.
Memberships are divided into different tiers, each with a specified number of potions that can be purchased.
Kevin even planned to make some of the more complicated and difficult-to-prepare potions specifically available to high-level members.
These types of medicines have limited production capacity and take a long time to manufacture, so the quantity supplied to customers is naturally not large.
Therefore, it is necessary to set up different membership tiers. For some high-end members who are worth befriending, customized services can even be provided.
For example, Biscuit, Qiduo, and King— Kevin naturally plans to give these guys the highest-level membership treatment. Next up are the [suppliers], which is the core part that Kevin needs to focus on.
This group is directly related to Kevin's access to materials and is the foundation for his shop to sell potions.
[Suppliers] must be found and selected by Kevin himself, without any room for carelessness.
Suppliers must be offered generous benefits; simply providing internal discounts is far from sufficient.
He plans to design a Member Card specifically for [suppliers]. The materials provided by these partners will be converted into [currency].
This [currency] can be exchanged for money, and also for potions at a lower price.
Kevin even planned to specially formulate several highly practical potions, stipulating that they could only be purchased with [currency].
This privilege must be higher than that of ordinary members; even the highest-level members must use [currency] to purchase these potions.
As for how to obtain the [currency], that's up to the members to figure out.
You can earn currency by trading with [suppliers], or by having them provide expensive and special [materials].
Therefore, [suppliers] will become a stable source of material supply.
[Members] are those who provide connections, wealth, and the occasional material.
Or perhaps they are simply there to highlight the [supplier].
The entire system revolves around the interaction of materials and reagents.
Currently, the overall framework is basically fine. The next step is to handle some details and then fully flesh out the framework.
The most crucial element is the medicine itself.
To gain acceptance for their system, they must provide a convincing solution.
More advanced and more useful potions—the kind of things you'd want to have once you knew about them.
To be honest, his busy schedule lately has left him little time to create New Potion, and he hasn't had a chance to put some of his ideas into practice.
As luck would have it, there was Qiduo, Three-star Hunter with medical expertise, present.
By exchanging ideas and learning from her, or even collaborating with her, we might be able to create an even more perfect potion.
With Biscuit providing a guarantee, Kevin had considerable trust in this Three-star Hunter.
He was one of the Hunter Association's administrators and also a friend of his master.
Early the next morning.
After everyone finished breakfast, they got busy with their own tasks.
Kevin and Qiduo led Pairo to the Infirmary on the Manor.
"Now, let me explain how my Nen ability works. Don't interrupt me yet."
"I have basic trust in you, whether it's because you're Biscuit's friend or because of your status, I believe you won't go around publicizing my Nen ability."
"Besides, there's nothing particularly I need to hide about my Nen ability; the more people interact with me, the easier it is for them to analyze and discover it."
Kevin got straight to the point.
Qiduo initially wanted to interrupt, but upon hearing this, she nodded in agreement.
Since that's what they said, there's no need to be coy.
Kevin then gave a general explanation of how he used and how his Nen ability worked.
As expected, after listening, Qiduo's eyes gleamed with excitement. "A very interesting Nen ability!"
That's really interesting!
Clearly, Qiduo is very interested in Kevin's Nen ability, just as Biscuit had said before.
"May I ask, in your own estimation, what level of Nen ability do you think you can reach?"
Qiduo wanted a more precise scope so that he could better formulate his treatment plan.
"To put it simply, based on my own feeling, if I had enough perfect materials and enough energy, I think I might even be able to create a potion that can bring the dead back to life and reverse aging."
Kevin's words sounded exaggerated, but he genuinely believed that his Nen ability had that potential.
However, it is currently unclear how much mental energy or what materials are needed to achieve this.
After all, this is just the upper limit; naturally, we should aim higher. It's not that it's completely unattainable, but the conditions for achieving it are quite stringent.
"Give me twenty years to focus on my training, and provide me with enough materials, and I'm sure I can do it," Kevin thought to himself.
As a Three-star Hunter, Qiduo was well-informed and simply nodded at Kevin's words without showing any surprise.
Such Nen ability are not unheard of, but the conditions for achieving them are extremely demanding.
As Kevin said, this is just the upper limit of his Nen ability, and the upper limit is not something that can be reached easily.
"If that's the case, then this treatment will be much easier."
"I will give you a list of materials. Purchase everything listed on it. These materials may help you make the medicine to treat the patient."
"If all else fails, we can gradually fine-tune your Nen ability, which should achieve the therapeutic goal."
Kevin nodded, indicating that it was no problem.
The type, quantity, and processing method of the materials all affect the potion's effectiveness, which has always been the most time-consuming part of his potion-making process.
The two then engaged in an in-depth exchange and discussion about Pairo's condition.
It must be said that both of them possess medical knowledge and are academic high-achievers.
Although Kevin's knowledge base wasn't as extensive as Qiduo's, he could still follow her train of thought, so communication was seamless.
Kevin was learning with an insatiable thirst for knowledge.
Then we purchased materials through Light, but through Qiduo's channels.
This allows materials to be delivered quickly by air, while ensuring excellent quality and affordable prices – all are top-quality products.
"If you don't mind, could I see for myself how your Nen ability works? Especially the potion-making process."
When Qiduo made this request, she was extremely cautious, knowing that her idea might be somewhat presumptuous.
But she was simply too curious about Kevin's Nen ability, and a deeper understanding would be helpful for the subsequent treatment.
This is no joke.
Kevin pondered for a moment, then nodded.
Anyway, he wanted to use Qiduo's knowledge and abilities to help him create New Potion.
Soon, Qiduo brought Biscuit over, because she felt that Kevin trusted Biscuit more than herself.
Having Biscuit stand next to him is a statement.
After understanding the situation, Biscuit nodded and said, "Alright then, I've never seen it before either, so I'll take this opportunity to see it for myself."
In front of the two of them, Kevin materialized his Alchemy Table.
Biscuit had seen it before and found it nothing new, but Qiduo looked at it with great interest, even reaching out to touch it gently.
Kevin discovers that, on the surface, Qiduo is a serious and wise strong woman, and in reality, she truly is.
However, when they encounter something that interests them, they will show a side of themselves that is inconsistent with their personality.
Kevin placed the materials he had prepared beforehand on the weighing pan.
"You process each material differently. Does that affect the efficacy of the medicine?" Qiduo asked curiously.
Kevin nodded and explained simply, "The freshness of the materials, whether they are dried, and their powdered form all affect the potion's effectiveness."
Qiduo nodded slightly, it seemed that Kevin's Nen ability followed a certain scientific logic.
This is not pure fantasy, but based on reality, and it can indeed make the medicine more effective.
As the production process unfolded, the two quickly realized the limitations of this Nen ability.
Without a doubt, Kevin was in the most vulnerable state during the drug manufacturing process.
If Kevin were caught at this point, he wouldn't even be able to fight back, which would be extremely dangerous.
Once the potion was ready, Kevin pulled out the Medicine Tube filled with liquid from below and handed it to Qiduo, letting her study it on her own.
Biscuit looked at Kevin with a serious expression and said, "When making medicine, you'd better not have a fixed schedule; try to be as free as possible."
"If necessary, the best location for manufacturing drugs is a safe and secluded area. Of course, it's even better to have trustworthy and capable people protect you."
The moment when one uses their Nen ability is the most dangerous for every Nen user.
At that time, they were almost no different from ordinary people, and perhaps even more vulnerable.
Kevin nodded, indicating that he understood.
Because Qiduo was very interested in his Nen ability, the two quickly got together and started talking.
Their conversation revolved around medical information, which made Biscuit dizzy, so she simply opened a magazine, sat down, and pretended not to hear anything.
Since the materials hadn't arrived yet, and Qiduo was very interested in Kevin's Nen ability, Kevin decided to take her along to research the new drug.
Kevin has recently stockpiled a large amount of materials, many of which are fresh, and he hasn't had time to fully understand their properties yet.
However, based on the descriptions provided by Men Qi and others, he made annotations for each type of material.
There is a certain connection between the material and its source; this subtle connection can be utilized when making medicines.
Find suitable materials to combine in order to achieve the desired effect.
Their conversation grew increasingly lively.
"This is the lung of a bird that can dive underwater for extended periods of time; this bird is called—"
"Following your line of thinking, using it as the main ingredient, wouldn't the potion allow people to breathe freely underwater?"
"That's true, but it also requires the use of suitable auxiliary materials and Fusion Agent."
"Then you can use Bubble Algae, which is a special plant, and its effects can—"
The two of them chatted away, their conversation flowing freely and enthusiastically.
Kevin has a thorough understanding of various biological information and is familiar with the special habits and abilities of various organisms.
Qiduo is extremely knowledgeable about various herbs and their medicinal properties, even some obscure and unusual herbs.
She could even readily describe the extraction and condensation methods of different herbs, and the different medicines made from them.
In this respect, she far surpasses Kevin. Kevin humbly learns from her while collaborating and exchanging ideas with her.
With Qiduo's help, some of the medicines that were originally just rough ideas quickly became a possibility for realization.
The most tedious part of material processing was also completed quickly with Qiduo's help.
Compared to Kevin's previous tedious method of experimenting one by one, Qiduo, who understood the properties of medicines better, could always accurately point out how to process materials to achieve the desired effect.
Soon, a new medicine was developed.
[Diving Potion]: Consumes very little Nen Aura, allowing the user to breathe freely underwater and enhancing swimming speed and agility.
Kevin also had good ideas and approaches for the other types of medicine; given more time...
It should be possible to make it.
"Your medication is available for both topical and oral administration. Have you considered other methods of administration?"
Qiduo suddenly asked.
"Other uses?" Kevin, somewhat puzzled.
Qiduo Duo nodded and said, "For example, injections. Many drugs are more effective and work faster when administered via injection."
These words seemed to open the Gate to a new world for Kevin, but after a moment's thought, he shook his head.
"No, although this is a product of Nen ability, injecting the drug directly into the body probably won't work."
This was an intuition he derived from his understanding of his Nen ability.
Qiduo nodded with some regret. "Is that so? That's a bit of a shame."
However, her suggestion gave Kevin a new idea.
Although the medicine cannot be injected directly, this is Nen ability, and there are many unique abilities in the world.
Now, [Moment's Dream] has been completely transformed into his Nen ability because the Resentment has been removed.
He could feel himself gradually merging with this Nen ability, just like [Blank Meteor], which would change as he grew.
The two seemed to grow up together.
Inspired by what Qiduo had just said, he came up with a solution.
Injection.
That's right, his Nen ability leans towards Conjuration.
This is knowledge I learned from Biscuit: the classification of Nen ability is not absolutely fixed and may shift in a certain direction.
For example, he is essentially Enhancement Type, but actually leans slightly towards Emission Type.
His Specialization Type leans towards Materialization Type.
After all, his Alchemy Table was a materialized reality.
So, he could try to materialize a [Syringe].
The medication is injected into the body using Syringe to achieve a better effect and a longer duration of action.
For others, this might just be a simple idea, but for Kevin, it was a giant leap forward.
Because compared to oral administration, the effects of injections are more easily absorbed and remembered by the body.
For him, this is undoubtedly a great improvement.
This idea is entirely feasible.
