Left with Nothing but People

"Hey, what do you want?"

Ying Yingying was startled by Russell's gaze. Recalling what she had said, she realized there was nothing wrong with it; it was all common sense information for Reincarnator.

"Do you know how to make this medicine?"

"What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

"Don't interrupt, answer my question!" Russell grabbed Ying Yingying by the collar and lifted her into the air.

"The prescription is available in the Main God Space. Although it's a bit pricey, all the decent teams have exchanged for it. It's not a secret, so why are you so excited?" Ying Yingying kicked off the ground, Cairo's hand, and jumped to the ground, completely bewildered by his sudden action.

"Stop talking nonsense and write down the prescription. I can send you a package of the photos I just took. If you can't write it down, I'll make a special photo album for you, the kind where you're only wearing Band-Aid." Russell pressed down on Ying Yingying's head and said fiercely.

"Hey, you don't even know this kind of common sense..." Ying Yingying said suspiciously, but seeing Russell's increasingly unfriendly look, she quickly changed her tune. "It's not that I don't want to give it to you, it's not a secret, you can exchange it with Reward Points when you return to the Main God Space. The truth is that the prescription is too long, and I didn't memorize it, so it's impossible for me to write it out on the spot."

Russell narrowed his eyes slightly. "Two Band-Aid off, which do you choose?"

"Alright, alright, I'm really scared of you. You always use Band-Aid- Aids to scare me." Ying Yingying said angrily, "The prescription is in my Space Ring. You can decide for yourself. Don't mention Band-Aid- Aids. Even if you reduce the dosage, it won't help. If you can't write it, you just can't write it."

Russell stroked the two rings, considering whether it was worthwhile to return them to Ying Yingying. As a mage with a severe imbalance in his specializations, his desire for the two major attributes of 'physical' and 'strength' was almost becoming an obsession.

"Regarding the prescription, I really don't know much about it..."

"Impossible, you don't understand, your teammates... Okay, I'll shut up, you go on."

"To what extent can this prescription strengthen one's physique?" Russell wasn't overwhelmed by the unexpected windfall. He rationally asked the key question: it certainly couldn't be an unlimited strengthening, otherwise Reincarnator would be Superman.

"The prescription is for one-time use. The 'one-time use' here refers to the medicinal guide. For example, this Skull Crawler, once made into an enhancement drug and taken, will not be effective the next time it is used," Ying Yingying said. "Moreover, the medicinal guide is limited to powerful beasts. Ordinary lions and tigers will not have an enhancement effect."

Russell nodded, agreeing that made sense, and continued, "According to you, encountering Reincarnator from a fantasy world would mean you could use a cheat code?"

"You're overthinking it. Enhancement pills aren't that powerful. If it were a fantasy world, digging up rare herbs that have been around for thousands of years would be more cost-effective than making pills. That would be a real tonic."

"Are enhancement drugs common?" Russell frowned.

"It's indeed quite ordinary for advanced Reincarnator. This path is getting narrower and narrower. Instead of spending time capturing ferocious beasts to refine medicine, it's better to think of ways to farm Reward Points. After all, Reward Points are the real currency; with money, you can buy whatever you want." Ying Yingying said matter-of-factly, "For an expert like you, using Reward Points to strengthen your physique is directly effective. Besides, if you really have any dissatisfaction, there's always the option of a bloodline that's perfect from the start!"

Under Ying Yingying's explanation, Russell gradually understood that the use of medicinal formulas to refine enhancement drugs was common in various teams, and was generally applicable to Reincarnator with low strength, serving as a benefit for newcomers.

After all, there are many ways to enhance one's strength in the Main God Space, and no one would deliberately pursue alchemy for enhancement, as it is time-consuming and affects score. It's like Team Battle; eliminating one enemy Reincarnator yields a large amount of Reward Points, so only a fool would bother with alchemy.

Moreover, the stronger the Reincarnator, the less effective the enhancement drugs become. Wasting the team's resources hunting ferocious beasts during missions results in a severe imbalance between expenditure and reward, a case of penny-wise and pound-foolish, a completely misguided approach.

Ying Yingying's words made a lot of sense, but she didn't understand Russell's situation. Outsiders couldn't enter the Main God Space at all. For Reincarnator, it was a waste of the team's strength, but he didn't have this restriction. As the leader of Hydra, he was so poor that all he had left were people.

As for the one-time use of the drug, it's ineffective when used again... no big deal. With the Marvel Universe behind him, this path is wide open for him!

"I see. Now that you mention it, the prescription is practically useless to me. Alright, you can continue with your work!" Russell said disappointedly, turning to leave.

"Wait a minute!"

Ying Yingying grabbed Russell's black robe. "Where are the photos? Is there no room for negotiation?"

"What photos? Your photos? Are you taking them now?"

"It's a picture of Loki. Give me the ring; there's a notebook and a data cable inside. Don't go, honey, there are also many prescriptions in the ring..."

With fifteen huskies capable of transforming into berserk Husky, the soldiers regained their courage to venture deeper into the island, reducing the two-day journey to half a day.

Having safely crossed the grassland, the most dangerous forest of giant trees appeared ahead. Colonel Packard, seeing that dusk was approaching, dared not risk the lives of his soldiers and ordered them to set up camp and rest for the night before continuing their journey the next day.

At night, several tents were pitched around a campfire, and the Five Colors borealis lit up the distant sky, like a curtain of light swaying in the sky, extremely dreamlike and breathtaking.

Nighttime is the most dangerous time, as nocturnal predators begin to move. Colonel Packard arranged for soldiers to be divided into two shifts to guard against any potential dangers.

Russell was resting with his eyes closed in the tent when he was suddenly awakened by the contract. Jason had arrived near the camp and discovered the humans on the island.

It wasn't these soldiers, but the natives living on the island, who could reach their village by crossing the giant jungle.

Apart from that, Jason did not find Reincarnator, not a single one.

Jason trusted Russell's ability to find people; if he said no, then he definitely didn't. However, the island was vast, and Jason hadn't yet explored several areas, one of which was the very center of the island, where the Skull Crawler were most active.

The center of the island is a must-go destination. Russell suspects that the Reincarnator have already gathered there, but judging from Ying Yingying's unhurried demeanor, the Team Battle doesn't seem to have already begun.

The Reincarnator have gathered together; are they going to fight to the death, or are they going to organize an open-air mahjong tournament? Or have they all been wiped out?

Russell, his mind filled with confusion, slowly closed his eyes, then silently opened them again a moment later. It was a little noisy in the next tent; if he remembered correctly, Ms. Weaver was sleeping there, but just now, someone had tiptoed in.

"Should we take a couple of pictures of Captain Marvel and Loki on their ship...?" Russell was a little conflicted. The fate of Asgard rested on his shoulders. If he took the pictures, Hela would be out of the picture, Ragnarok might come sooner than expected.

"No need to even think about it, we absolutely have to get two!"
