Dreaming Big

The probability of encountering abnormal creatures had greatly increased. Zheng Yichen immediately realized that his untreated wounds were attracting them with blood.

This made him perk up and accelerate his departure. He didn't even return to the temporary camp. Upon reaching the city, he found a shared bicycle. The journey back was incredibly difficult. As the hunter Arno had advised him when he left, a hunter should have reliable transportation.

Traveling by vehicle within the city is convenient, and one doesn't need to search for parking when going out. However, this is only true within the city limits. Once you go to the outskirts or similar places, it becomes very troublesome.

Now he was experiencing that feeling.

Fortunately, the Twilight Chapel was much closer to the Southern Forest than his home. After arriving here by a winding route, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. While he was attacked by some abnormal creatures in the suburbs, upon returning to the city, he also attracted some giant rats and wild cats.

Those things had added quite a few new small wounds to his body.

"I need treatment," Zheng Yichen said to a familiar nun at the entrance of the Twilight Chapel.

The nun with milk-white hair glanced at Zheng Yichen's body and nodded, "Follow me."

In a room resembling a medical bay, the nun examined Zheng Yichen's condition and skillfully cleaned his wounds. Larger wounds were treated and closed with suture strips.

Zheng Yichen noticed that the nun had great strength. She corrected his fractured bones by herself. The entire process inevitably made him wince in pain.

"Are you choosing where to get the shot, or should I?" After treating Zheng Yichen's fractures and surface wounds, the nun took out a syringe and looked at him expressionlessly.

"Can't we skip this?"

"You can, as long as you don't worry about infection." The nun didn't insist. Zheng Yichen thought about it and decided to get the shot. He had been attacked by many small abnormal creatures on the way, accumulating new injuries. Although the wounds were small, the scratches from those abnormal creatures might have carried dangerous bacteria.

On Earth, he might have been able to ignore it with his physique, but in this world where abnormal creatures exist, it's normal for abnormal bacteria to appear, right?

"Can I get it in the arm?"

The consultation fee was twelve thousand. There was no bill, just the nun's words and the payment QR code she presented.

"..." Zheng Yichen somewhat dejectedly scanned the code and paid the consultation fee. He hadn't been this seriously injured since he transmigrated to this world. He wondered about the prices for other things. One thing the nun said made sense: some medical expenses could be covered by insurance.

However, injuries sustained by a hunter definitely wouldn't be covered by insurance.

The nun's treatment ability was quite good. Apart from the pain when correcting his bones, the rest was quite stable. There were no errors throughout the process; it was professional and efficient.

"My name is Changqing, and you are..."

"Tia."

And then there was no "then." He was kicked out of the medical bay. All treatable wounds were handled, the injection was given, and the bill was settled. As long as he didn't engage in strenuous activity, he would be fine. Nun Tia wouldn't let Zheng Yichen stay in the medical bay overnight; his presence there would interfere with her cleaning.

Sitting on a chair in the chapel, he looked at the information on his phone. The pending task had been confirmed as completed, and the commission payment had been transferred. The amount indicated on the commission was neither more nor less. The tax had already been paid by the client, which Zheng Yichen found quite good.

With the extra income, the money spent on treatment didn't hurt as much anymore. Now, all he wanted was to buy a car quickly. If a car was inconvenient, he could buy a more powerful motorcycle.

Daybreak arrived. Zheng Yichen didn't check the time on his phone. Inside the Twilight Chapel, he still thought it was evening. Every time he visited, the lighting here 'misled' him.

Yawning, Zheng Yichen picked up the tools borrowed from the Nun and started cleaning. The reason was that he had dealt with the Unicorn Mule's head here. Looking at the Unicorn Mule's head, Zheng Yichen felt a little regretful. At that time, he was a bit carried away by the pain. After taking the guy down, he was a bit too ruthless with the finishing blow, directly piercing its skull.

Now there was a hole in it, and he wondered if it would reduce its value.

This unicorn horn was quite good. Zheng Yichen tested it; it was very sturdy and seemed like it could be made into a short sword or dagger.

At the same time, its tongue was also not bad in terms of strength. The fact that it could cause his arm muscles to be strained and his bones to crack showed the strength of this thing.

When Zheng Yichen pulled, it was like stretching a rubber band. Even though the Unicorn Mule was dead, it still maintained its original strength.

As for the rest... there didn't seem to be anything else. He couldn't exactly make a charcoal-roasted mule head out of this thing, could he?

A few hours later, Zheng Yichen arrived at the Night Banquet Bar. After the Bartender informed him about his general working hours at the bar, Zheng Yichen decided not to go in early in the morning.

"Oh~ Look who's here." Seeing Zheng Yichen arrive, the Bartender smiled and brought him a glass of water: "You actually completed that commission."

"Just lucky, I almost got killed." Zheng Yichen gestured to his still somewhat immobile left arm. Besides that, he had many suture strips on him; those things avoided stitches. He lowered his voice: "The related news won't spread, right?"

"Hahaha, you wish." Zheng Yichen's words made the Bartender chuckle. He looked at the young man in front of him, who was at least a dozen years younger than him: "It's just a relatively rare and intelligent Abnormal Creature. Not many people are paying attention to it."

"Alright..." Zheng Yichen picked up the glass of water and drank it: "I need to rest for a while. Also, I want to buy a car."

"It seems your experience last night was not good." Catching the hint of regret on Zheng Yichen's face, the Bartender smiled gently: "I can recommend a few good places for you. Remember to mention my name when you go to buy the car; you might get about a 1% discount."

"Then I've also made a profit." The Bartender took out a piece of paper, wrote down a few addresses on it, and then went back to his work.

He went home to change his clothes and then returned to the Twilight Chapel. He planned to ask the Hunter Arno to take a look for him and appraise the mule's head.

However, when he arrived, Hunter Arno had still not appeared at the chapel. Zheng Yichen didn't just sit around. He took out some prepared tools and got busy, working on a piece of good-quality wood. He planned to carve out a set of Mahjong by hand.

"What are you doing?" Arno's voice came. The Hunter held a Mahjong tile in his hand and asked Zheng Yichen with a hint of curiosity. His intuition told him that this was something he would be very interested in.
