The white mist dissipated, signaling that for the first time, the system had not consumed Raw Material.
Song Xiaozhu was not discouraged. She took off the lump, replaced it with a new one, and continued clicking on the [ Medicinal Raw Material ] recipe.
Prompt: "... To synthesize?"
It paused, it absolutely paused!
Song Xiaozhu's mood inexplicably improved, and she continued, "Yes."
"Synthesis failed."
Song Xiaozhu changed the stomach sac again, muttering to herself as she did so, "Luckily, the stomach sac held enough. It's fine. I can also cut open the Black Pig Beast and try them one by one..."
Before the thought could even finish, a notification sounded, "Synthesis successful. Obtained [ Medicinal Raw Material ]*1."
Song Xiaozhu was overjoyed. She looked closely and saw a small yellow capsule lying on the right side of the Workbench!
Chapter 65
"Just one..." Song Xiaozhu thought about the amount needed for the antidote formula and decided not to be greedy, "That's enough."
She put away the yellow [ Medicinal Raw Material ] and glanced at the clean Bai Jing Workbench.
Ever since she learned that the Awakening Stone was "alive," she subconsciously began to test the Synthesizer.
Is he alive?
Looking at it now, the probability is not small.
What does it mean to be alive?
Biologically, this has a strict definition. Of course, given Song Xiaozhu's current mysterious worldview, having self-awareness is probably more representative than energy metabolism.
Song Xiaozhu didn't want to think too much about it; when their hearts were in sync, the more they thought about it, the more they would reveal.
Of course, she can't control whether she wants to or not, but she can distract herself by doing other things, which will allow her to temporarily stop thinking about it.
She has so much to do. The most urgent task is to get an "antidote" and quickly finish the second Repair Quest.
Once you have the yellow [ Medicinal Raw Material ], the antidote isn't difficult to obtain; it only costs one Quantum Coin...
Song Xiaozhu's Quantum Coin has now fallen below 100 again. She spent 20 Quantum Coins each on Tian Man and Luo Liuzi, which is quite a loss.
After selecting the "antidote" formula, Song Xiaozhu glanced at the success rate: 60%.
Her heart skipped a beat. There was only one yellow [ Medicinal Raw Material ]. What if her Unlucky Player constitution suddenly flared up and she failed...? Hmm, no worries, there's also a Black Pig Beast's stomach. Presumably, it contains quite a few "any medicinal ingredients."
Synthesis successful, obtained 10 'Antidotes';
Evaluation: A medicine that causes gastrointestinal discomfort;
"Effectiveness: After ingestion, there is a certain probability that it will neutralize the toxicity in the body."
Song Xiaozhu's lips curled up slightly; she was no longer afraid that the Synthesizer could sense her thoughts.
She seems to have grasped a little bit of the method to "change one's fate from Unlucky Player ".
Of course, the Synthesizer can also choose not to respond to her provocation.
But not responding is also a form of response.
The notification sound remained monotonous, "Quest progress updated, all level 2 recipes unlocked, Repair Quest: 2/3."
Song Xiaozhu's spirits lifted; all she needed now was to replenish her Repair Points.
To gather 200 Repair Points, she would have to go to the front lines herself and hunt down ten Polluted Beast.
Song Xiaozhu examined the antidote. The evaluation of this medicine stated that after taking it...
Does it come at the cost of diarrhea?
Its performance is really good; it seems that as long as Quantum Coin are used, the synthesized items become ridiculously powerful.
Even though it's said to have a probability of neutralizing toxicity, even with a low probability, this indiscriminate neutralization is still beyond the scope of current human medicine.
Song Xiaozhu's use of a stomach bag to torment the Workbench was seen as self-harm by Qiu Shuyu, Tian Man, and Luo Liuzi.
Good heavens, what kind of horrific experiment is this? What can they possibly discover from those lumps of unidentified matter?
Even if there are plants and animals from outside the isolation zone inside, can they still be "extracted" from them?
Their initial disbelief gradually turned into admiration.
You have to admit it.
Song Xiaozhu's "scientific research" spirit left everyone present feeling ashamed of their own!
Qiu Shuyu covered her mouth and nose and asked, " Xiaozhu, the other stomach..."
Song Xiaozhu snapped out of her daze and exclaimed, "No need to cut it open!"
If she hadn't been in such a hurry to obtain the yellow [ Medicinal Raw Material ], she wouldn't have resorted to this tactic that would kill a thousand enemies while harming eight hundred of her own.
Even the Workbench couldn't take it anymore, and she wasn't much better off.
Hearing her say that, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Qiu Shuyu then asked, "Is there anything else we need to do?"
The two Polluted Beast before me were completely mangled; their hides had been used to make helmets, armor, and gloves; their hearts had been ripped out, and the Awakening Stone Fragment inside had been collected; their internal organs were scattered all over the ground, and there was even an open stomach...
Anyone who accidentally stumbles into the backyard of this Taobao Shop will suffer from insomnia for three days and three nights, and will vow never to buy a light meal from here again!
This psychological trauma is no different from watching a horror movie.
Song Xiaozhu cleared her throat. "Um... let's leave the meat, and clean up the rest quickly."
The scene was such a mess that she wasn't in the mood to synthesize "fresh meat."
Qiu Shuyu and the other two didn't ask any further questions and quickly began cleaning up the battlefield.
Fortunately, the blood turned milky white later on, and this milky white color, thanks to the power of the Awakening Stone, masked some of the unpleasant smell, making the cleanup much easier.
After everything was cleaned up, the large pieces of lean meat that had been cut up were placed on the cutting board.
Everyone took a shower and came back feeling refreshed. Luckily, they had all worn gloves, otherwise their hands would have been covered in the smell of blood, which they couldn't wash off no matter how much they rinsed.
Luo Liuzi changed into clean clothes and curiously peered around. "Is this animal meat poisonous? What's the use of keeping it?"
Song Xiaozhu summoned the Workbench, placed several pieces of meat on it, and then took out an antidote.
The antidote requires Quantum Coin and is extremely effective, so it shouldn't be wasted right now, as there are likely wounded soldiers on the front lines who need it.
However, Song Xiaozhu still planned to use some, mainly because yellow [ Medicinal Raw Material ] were not scarce. Of course, she wouldn't keep using unknown substances; that would be killing the goose that lays the golden eggs, and if she angered the Synthesizer, it would be a losing proposition.
