Ch 100: TGCIR

Watching a fight for just a dollar, Shen Cheng naturally found it very worthwhile.

In reality, Li Weilan stirred up trouble with Shen Cheng’s uncles and jumped into the trap, showcasing his wealth of tens of millions. In the game, this goal was effortlessly achieved with an appearance bought for just a dollar.

Shen Cheng couldn’t help but chuckle as she looked at the dollar she had just recharged. This was also her experience from playing games before. In the old online games, there were plenty of people who spent countless hours grinding a dungeon just to get a mount or a nice piece of clothing. Regardless of gender, everyone had their own collection obsession. And she was sure that a girl like Bai Su, who insisted on wearing a white robe and long hair like a little fairy in the apocalypse, would definitely not be able to resist a gorgeous appearance that exuded ethereal charm, even if its practicality was almost zero.

Especially if you added a few words like “unique in the world” and “once it’s sold, it’s gone,” that shopping desire would skyrocket to infinity. Under such stimulation, she could do anything.

As expected, Bai Su ended up arguing with Tang Lu over the price.

Tang Lu had to admit that the dress they just saw was indeed beautiful, with its own soft light effect, even better than the highest-quality custom-made dresses from before the apocalypse.

But that price, he hadn’t missed that. It was definitely a rip-off.

Li Weilan’s eyes were smiling, but hidden within that smile was nothing but a slaughter. He presented one priced at 4,000 and then pulled out another at 10,000. Even if it was discounted to 8,000, it was just to make Bai Su feel like she was getting a huge bargain.

They had come here to mend some previously strained relationships, not to indulge Bai Su’s shopping spree.

So when Bai Su initially tried to reason with him and said a few more words, in Tang Lu’s eyes, she became unreasonable.

Tang Lu was annoyed by her nagging.

But Bai Su persisted. All she could think about was how stunning she would look in that outfit, how many people’s eyes she could attract, especially how many people would envy her. And most importantly, this outfit was one of a kind. If she missed it this time, she would never come across it again.

If another woman bought it, firstly, she couldn’t possibly wear someone else’s old clothes, and secondly, how could they possibly sell it again?

After calculating the materials and cores she had saved up and seeing Tang Lu’s expression, knowing he wouldn’t help her, she bit her lip, gently tugged on the man’s sleeve beside her, and whispered, “Tang ge, how about this? Since we’re here to mend relationships with those people who came seeking medical help, and they must have brought some good things to auction off for us, let’s visit them one by one. I’ll treat those I can treat, take some medical fees, and use them to buy the dress.”

Her ability couldn’t revive limbs, but she did have something she could offer.

She just had to be extremely careful when using it.

Bai Su clearly understood the principle of harboring a snake in one’s bosom. She also knew that Tang Lu wasn’t omnipotent in the J City base. At least, he was under the shadow of the Academy, although Tang Lu never admitted it. But she could tell that he was extremely wary of the Academy in his daily life. So she never dared to reveal the fact that she possessed a spiritual spring in the J City base.

“You can treat?” Tang Lu looked at her with a hint of doubt.

Bai Su often emphasized the huge consumption of her ability. She wouldn’t intervene in trivial matters. She could only save a life at most once a day, so she couldn’t even handle the queue of VIPs in the base, let alone people outside.

This time he brought her to see the situation at the auction, partly to curb her increasingly arrogant and haughty temper, and partly because he wanted to see if there was anything else that could replace her abilities.

Bai Su’s eyes flickered for a moment, but in the end, she nodded. “Hmm.”

“Alright then.”

Translated on ho lo lo novels dot com.

Tang Lu nodded. “I’ll have someone contact you first to take a look.”

However, Bai Su didn’t expect to be shut out.

And it was shut out by four families in a row.

Those families had previously begged her and held her in high regard, but now, when she offered to help them medically, all she received was cold mockery and merciless ridicule. “Miss Bai, it’s not that we don’t want treatment, but your demands for treatment are too much. Your price may be higher than the auction price, and people suffer. Now that there is medicine available, let’s just try to buy medicine as much as possible.”

They had one attitude when they begged her before, and now they had a completely different one.

Bai Su never imagined that the families that ranked higher on her list would actually find fault with her prices now.

When they begged her, they had one attitude, and now, they had completely changed. She couldn’t bear this humiliation and left in a huff.

But after hitting a wall four times like this, she also knew that it was probably because her prices were too high. But she wouldn’t lower them. After all, the outfit would cost 8,000 credit points to exchange. If she couldn’t even gather enough money for the dress, why bother?

Since she couldn’t lower the price, she could only lower something else.

Finally, when they reached the fifth family, it was a father and son. The father was buying medicine for his son.

The money they brought with them was not very abundant, and they weren’t as confident about getting auction items as the previous four families. At this point, Bai Su decided to lower her requirements and no longer insisted on exclusive treatment without onlookers, as she did before.

The father was somewhat skeptical. “You mean, there’s no need to cut open flesh?”

The son’s right arm was empty, with nothing in the sleeve.

That was shortly after the apocalypse had occurred, and he had been bitten by his girlfriend on the sleeve.

At that time, the father and son were fleeing together with his girlfriend. Although his girlfriend’s face had turned pale, he was stubborn and refused to leave his girlfriend behind no matter what. On the way, his girlfriend turned into a zombie.

The good girl instantly turned into a zombie that bit anyone she saw. If it weren’t for the quick thinking of the father, who pushed the zombie girl out of the car with a backpack and then ruthlessly cut off his son’s arm, they might not have survived.

Although the person survived, his son became a silent statue, feeling like a useless burden to the family.

Fortunately, the father awakened an earth-based ability. He had reached the fourth rank now, so he had some good things in his hands.

Back then, they had sought medical help at the J City base, but firstly, they weren’t from the J City base, and secondly, the things they had weren’t very tempting to Bai Su, so they couldn’t reach an agreement.

Now, the father never expected Bai Su to come to him voluntarily. When he heard Bai Su say that her ability had progressed and no longer required cutting open flesh and allowing bones and muscles to regrow and heal, he was somewhat shaken. He turned to his son, who was bowing his head gloomily. “Xiaohao, what do you think?”

Wang Hao naturally knew that his father wanted to save money.

It was not easy to save up a little capital during the apocalypse, so if he could save a little, that would be great.

Those things weren’t earned by him. He was already an adult man, still relying on his father for support. Although he felt uneasy, he didn’t have the right to say anything. After a moment of silence, he asked Bai Su, “Can my father watch by the side during the treatment?”

Bai Su immediately shook her head. “The consumption of my treatment is extremely high. I’ll have to clear the scene at that time, otherwise, I can’t guarantee my safety.”

“Is it really just 2,000 credit points?” Wang Hao remained silent for a moment and confirmed again.

Bai Su’s heart was bleeding. 2,000 points!

That was practically a sky-high price!

But as long as she could get two suckers, her little dress would be enough.

Thinking about it, it wasn’t too much of a loss.

Wang Hao remained silent for a moment, contemplating the base’s potions.

The starting price was 1000, but no one knew what the final price would be, and all they saw were comparison videos and images. Moreover, they were on someone else’s territory, so if the medicine turned out to be ineffective in the end, they couldn’t do anything to the other base.

In terms of cost-effectiveness, it was probably higher on Bai Su’s side.

For Wang Hao, there wasn’t much room for choice.

Moreover, in Wang Hao’s view, at most, her treatment process might be a bit painful, and he would suffer a bit, but saving some resources was more important to him.

Wang Hao hesitated for a moment, calculated the prices on both sides, and quickly made a decision. He said to his father, “Dad, let’s go for the treatment.”

The rooms were all ready, clean and tidy.

Bai Su closed the door, let Wang Hao lie down on the bed, pulled up his sleeve, and saw the damaged part under the clothes. Bai Su couldn’t help but show a disgusted, nauseated, and nauseous expression.

Although the part that looked like it had been gnawed by a dog had already healed, the damaged limb looked different from a normal person’s at a glance. Bai Su couldn’t help but turn her head away, reached out her hand to the man’s head, and slowly emitted a white light from her fingertips. Wang Hao heard her soft voice still carrying a hint of disgust, like a needle piercing the heart. “Sleep, when you wake up, everything will be fine.”

Wang Hao fell asleep.

Bai Su looked around and then slowly reached for her jade pendant, taking out a small bottle of potion from inside.

She cherished the still unfilled small bottle, opened it, poured out a drop, and slowly dripped it onto the man’s arm.

In just one second, the arm began to undergo very obvious changes.

New tissue slowly grew under the skin, and the skin stretched out. But at this moment when Wang Hao should have been asleep, he suddenly opened his eyes and grabbed Bai Su’s hand with his intact hand. “Miss Bai, what did you drip on me?”

Bai Su was shocked, about to resist, but heard a “bang,” and the door was kicked open from outside.

Tang Lu had just stood up and saw the man walking in from outside.

He wore silver-rimmed glasses, with a gentle expression on his face and a tone of voice that was always smiling. “Miss Bai, what is the water in your hand? Is it your healing ability?”

Bai Su’s face gradually sweated.

She suddenly thought of something and said to Xia Jinshi, “Dean, don’t overdo it. We are all guests in someone else’s base. If you do this, aren’t you afraid of Noah’s base turning against you?”

“Miss Bai is eloquent,” Xia Jinshi smiled slightly, “but you should know that every citizen has an obligation to cooperate with us in research. Miss Bai, you are no exception now. But rest assured, we won’t do anything to you.”

Before Bai Su could say anything else, Xia Jinshi had already reached out and taken the small bottle of water from Wang Hao’s hand, shaking it at her with a smile that didn’t quite reach his eyes. “Miss Bai, don’t panic too much. Perhaps, this amount is already sufficient.”
