63 Genetic Strengthening Potion!
“Brother, why are you here? Aren’t you preparing for the technology competition in school?”
In a corner of a ward in the hospital, a thin girl looked at Lin Bei, who had appeared in front of her, and her eyes revealed a hint of joy.
“Little sister, I’m here to see you. Now that I’ve earned money in Second World, I’m here to treat you!”
Lin Bei looked at his skinny sister and his thoughts drifted, as if he had returned to his previous life.
Lin Jing was a strong girl. Although she was plagued by illness, she had always been extremely optimistic and insisted on fighting it.
However, the sudden death of their parents in her previous life had dealt a huge blow to her. In the end, she still passed away.
“Brother! Don’t lie to me! I heard from them that they can only maintain my vitality through continuous blood transfusion and exchange. Otherwise, I’ll die quickly.”
Lin Jing blinked, as if she was not afraid of death.
“Silly girl, what do you know? I’m not lying to you! I’m here to treat your illness!”
As Lin Bei spoke, he took out his phone and showed Lin Jing his account balance. “Look for yourself. Isn’t this much money enough for your treatment?”
“Ah! Brother, where… where did you get so much money?”
Lin Jing exclaimed and pulled Lin Bei to her side. She leaned forward and whispered, “Brother, did you do something illegal? Do Mom and Dad know? You can’t do this. Although I’m sick, you shouldn’t…”
“Don’t worry, little sister. Your brother earned this money through legitimate means. Didn’t I tell you that I earned it from Second World?!”
Lin Bei smiled and said, “Alright, don’t worry. I know my limits. I definitely won’t do anything illegal! Dad and Mom will be here tomorrow. If you don’t believe me, you can ask them!”
“Is that true?”
“Absolutely!”
“Then… is Second World fun? I always hear others discussing this game, but the doctor said that I’m too weak to play games.”
Lin Jing asked curiously.
“It’s fun! Do you want to play?”
Lin Bei smiled and nodded.
“Of course I do! But I—”
“Don’t worry. When I cure you later, I’ll buy you a gaming pod. At that time, you can play however you want. If you encounter anything you don’t know or don’t understand, I’ll help you!”
Lin Bei smiled.
“Brother, you’re the best.”
Tears welled up in Lin Jing’s eyes. She originally thought that she would be like this for the rest of her life. She even thought that as a burden to her parents and brother, she shouldn’t continue living in this world.
However, every time she saw her parents and brother running around worried about her strange illness, she could not bear it.
She felt that she had to be strong.
Just like that, she endured for a full five years.
For the past five years, she had been staying in the hospital and had not even left once.
However, she did not regret it. Every time she saw her parents and brother’s smiles, she would feel that it was all worth it.
She did not want to leave them.
Never!
Her parents and brother were her only concern. They were her motivation to persevere!
“Hey, you’re my biological sister. If I don’t treat you well, who should I treat well? Alright, stay here for now. I’ll pay the money and reserve a private room for you for treatment.”
Lin Bei patted Lin Jing’s shoulder and left the ward.
Soon, he completed all kinds of procedures and spent 100 million Ocean Blue coins to buy something called a genetic strengthening potion.
He did not know about this in his previous life.
He only knew that it would cost 100 million Ocean Blue coins to treat Lin Jing’s illness. At that time, he had asked, but the hospital did not tell him how to treat it.
However, in this life, when he showed enough money, the hospital gave an answer.
It was very simple to treat Lin Jing’s illness completely. He only needed a bottle of genetic strengthening potion!
However, the price was also high. 100 million Ocean Blue coins!
“Doctor Du, what is this Genetic Strengthening Potion? Will there be side effects if my sister uses it?”
Lin Bei asked his sister’s attending doctor worriedly.
“Hehe, don’t worry about that. There are no side effects.”
Doctor Du smiled and replied, “Speaking of this Genetic Strengthening Potion, it’s actually something that our Dragon Country spent a lot of effort to obtain. You know about the ruins of the alien ancient civilization, right? The technology of the Genetic Strengthening Potion was discovered from there. However, our Dragon Country only mastered this technology in the past two years.”
“It’s very difficult to make this Genetic Strengthening Potion. Even our huge Dragon Country doesn’t have much reserves.”
“Although it’s priced at 100 million yuan, this thing is actually still the target of many rich people! However, the Dragon Country has strict control over genetic strengthening potions. Unless necessary, it won’t easily enter the market.”
Doctor Du explained patiently, “Your sister’s illness is very rare. I once discussed the treatment with many experts in the world, but in the end, we only came to a conclusion. With our Dragon Country’s current medical technology, it can’t be cured completely. Fortunately, the genetic strengthening potion has appeared in the past two years. It can repair a person’s genetic defects and strengthen them.”
“Your sister’s strange illness is caused by genetic defects, but with this Genetic Strengthening Potion, she will recover quickly. However, she has been bedridden in the hospital for so many years. She still needs some recuperation training to fully recover.”
“Thank you, Doctor Du!”
“You’re welcome. This Genetic Strengthening Potion was obtained by your family through hard work. I’m just doing my duty as a doctor. However, it’s better not to say anything about the Genetic Strengthening Potion lest it causes unnecessary trouble. Do you understand?”
“Doctor Du, don’t worry! I won’t say anything!”
Lin Bei nodded with a serious expression.
However, his heart was in turmoil!
Genetic Strengthening Potion!
A special potion from the ruins of an alien civilization!
It had the effect of strengthening the human genes!
To be honest, it was fine if he did not know. Now that he knew about this, as a normal person, how could he not be tempted?
In fact, he only knew that Second World’s system mainframe came from the ruins. He did not know anything else.
However, from the looks of it, there was more than just a Second World system in the ruins of the alien civilization!
Was there anything else besides the Genetic Strengthening Potion?
Lin Bei felt that his mind was in a mess.
Second World… was it really just a simple virtual game?
Lin Bei suddenly had this thought.
He could not help but think of Alina, his professional mentor, and Bobo, the Goblin merchant he had interacted with. Lin Bei felt they were like living beings!
“Sigh… I won’t think about it anymore!”
Lin Bei shook his head hard and left the room with the shopping list in his hand.
The Genetic Strengthening Potion would only arrive in two days. Now, he had to tell his sister this good news.
As for everything else, it was just his guess.
Highly-intelligent NPCs was something even advanced AI could do, right?
Not to mention the system mainframe of an alien civilization ruin.
He was just scaring himself!
As for the Genetic Strengthening Potion, if possible, he had to think of a way to get a bottle!
No matter how powerful he was in the game, that was only in the game. If he could obtain the Genetic Strengthening Potion, his strength in the real world would increase greatly. At that time, he would have some strength to protect himself.
Although this was a lawful society, it was never wrong to become stronger.
However… this thing was not easy to obtain.
Lin Bei frowned and had a headache.
