Chapter 296: Chapter 286 Eternal Friends (Third Update) Chapter 296: Chapter 286 Eternal Friends (Third Update) At 7 AM, the Spirit’s Fuss Group was still very lively, its mbership having reached a whopping 2000 people.
It included guild leaders from major guilds, elites of these guilds, and a number of accomplished players from among the Spirit.
Seven hours ago, the players were discussing how to take down the Apocalypse Dragon, but now the discussion had shifted to…
‘Yin Hui: Plan to rescue the most evil rchant in Spirit, who’s in Jiangcheng?’
‘Bubble: What kind of rchant? Aren’t you the biggest rchant in Spirit, Caral Little Prince?’
‘Yin Hui: I’ve never sold anything in Spirit! Can’t you stick to the matter at hand? You all know about “Milk Added No Extra Charge,” right?’
‘Blade Swordsman: What’s up with Milk Added No Extra Charge? I bought a bunch of furniture from her not long ago.’
‘Caral: That priest girl? I rember now! When the Apocalypse Dragon was first released, she suddenly fainted in the ga. Guild Leader, a few of our mbers are quite worried about her. Yin Boss, do you know the inside story? @Yin Hui.’
Suddenly the ssages in the Spirit’s Fuss Group slowed down, and Yin Boss sent a screenshot to the group, titled “Comatose Vegetable for Two Years Awakens.”
Initially, not many people noticed this report, but as soon as Yin Boss posted a screenshot of the patient’s photo, a bunch of players popped into the Spirit’s Fuss Group.
‘Silver Bullet Loaded: Damn! It really is the rchant!’
‘Starlight Scribe Team: How did it suddenly go to rchant? Didn’t Milk Added No Extra Charge help you beat the low-level instances when you were a low level?’
‘Hu Hai: She did! But it was freakin’ expensive. Although I coasted through, now Milk Added No Extra Charge doesn’t take people to instances anymore, just focuses on her trades.’
A lot of people in the Spirit’s Fuss Group knew Milk Added No Extra Charge. Even if they weren’t friends with her, they definitely recognized this milk maid.
Because Milk Added No Extra Charge’s presence in Spirit was just too strong. She was the only chargeable nurse in Spirit, and during the first and second trials of Spirit, there were rumors that any insurmountable instance could be overco if this nurse was part of the team.
Blade Swordsman had a lot of respect for Milk Added No Extra Charge’s skills. Although she no longer took people on runs, the various items she sold were of enormous help to players, although… a bit pricey.
‘Bubble: Damn! Isn’t this the nurse who sold to the Dragon Speaker sisters? What… What exactly happened to her?’
‘Black-Haired Chang Qing: Milk Added No Extra Charge participated in a clinical trial called Life dical. The project initially aid to test a next-gen VR device called a ‘landing pod,’ which could also serve as a treatnt pod and nutrient provider. I checked out the cost of participating in the project and it’s very expensive…’
Xia Shan and Milk Added No Extra Charge were both mbers of the Naless Guild. Although they rarely had the chance to chat, they could roughly be considered friends. Back in the day, Milk Added No Extra Charge heavily promoted to Xia Shan to sell her mining machines.
And Xia Shan’s small alchemy machines were also sold through Milk Added No Extra Charge; the money they made together was enough for Xia Shan to consider quitting her job!
Of course, she hadn’t done so because working at the Sky Palace ga platform provided her with a lot of information.
‘Daydrear: Chang Qing sis seems to know a lot, huh? But the priest girl looks just as pretty in ga as she does in real life.’
‘Black-Haired Chang Qing: Job perks.’
‘Bubble: I know who that nurse is in reality, but hasn’t she already been cured and woke up? Caral Little Prince, you’re not suggesting the players in the group crowd-fund her treatnt, are you? @Yin Hui.’
Yin Boss didn’t respond but sent another ssage to Bubble, a simple screenshot showing the titles of various dia reports about Milk Added No Extra Charge.
The news of a vegetable waking up was big, especially since she had awakened through an all-new dical device!
Journalists from major news agencies sward like hyenas drawn by the sll of fresh at.
‘Front-line Reporter: I already knew about this, initially wanted to interview as it involved Spirit players, but gave up because she had just awakened and was still too frail, but… other journalists don’t seem to think so?’
‘Starlight Scribe Team: What about Milk Added No Extra Charge’s family?’
Yin Boss uploaded another screenshot, an article from a year ago.
“Tycoon from Jiangcheng Entangled in Financial Scam? Owes Two Billion and Jailed.”
‘Yin Hui: I knew so insider details about this at the ti, and couldn’t discuss them, but I can confirm that this person, whom you’re calling a rchant… both her parents are in prison now, and even if she has family, it’s likely they won’t dare to claim her, so now… who’s in Jiangcheng? @All mbers.’
‘Black-Haired Chang Qing: I am. I was just planning to visit Milk Added No Extra Charge at the hospital.’
‘Happy Gaming: Go together?’
‘Daydrear: Damn damn damn damn! Smile bro, you finally ca back to life! You’ve been playing dead for so long! Ahem, now’s not the ti to say this. Going there won’t attract more reporters?’
‘Happy Gaming: Can’t we just drive them out?’
‘Daydrear: This is real life, not a ga!!!’
‘Can Xin: We from Abyss Temple just happen to be in your Supre Overlord’s venue for a match. How about we go together to lend a hand? After all, this nurse has sold us quite a few good things.’
‘Today No Updates: Instance — “First Hospital Milk Added No Extra Charge Defense Battle” opened, Difficulty: Unknown, Participants: Unlimited, Currently Participating Players: Black-Haired Chang Qing, Happy Gaming, Daydrear, Can Xin, Today No Updates… anyone else want to go? Front row, looking to group!’
‘Mocha Coffee: Pig-headed nurse? I’m also in Jiangcheng… where is it exactly?’
‘Whispers: Boo hoo hoo so many big nas, too bad I’m in Nancheng, so far! Can I still get a plane ticket now?’
‘Buy plane ticket 1’
‘Buy plane ticket 233’
A torrent of repetitive ssages suddenly flooded the Spirit’s Fuss Group, but everyone was highly concerned about Milk Added No Extra Charge’s health condition.
Finally, under the coordination of Yin Boss, a group of Spirit players in Jiangcheng got into Vo IP together, completing an impromptu team formation that didn’t actually exist, and headed for the First Hospital!
……
Milk Added No Extra Charge sat on the hospital bed, staring blankly at the wall in the distance.
Everything around her felt so unfamiliar and unreal.
She subconsciously waved her fingertips, trying to bring up the Holy Spirit system interface, but it wasn’t there…
There was no health bar or MP, and the comforting backpack with its contents and Gold Coin values were all missing.
The only things that continued to assail her were the flashing cara lights and those reporters trying to squeeze into her hospital room for an interview.
Caral really wanted to release an awakening, using Holy Light to obliterate all those reporters.
But she simply couldn’t… In this world, she was just a weak patient, who couldn’t even get out of bed.
Caral didn’t like this world; she despised the feeling of powerlessness that pervaded her body, hated not feeling the weight of a backpack on her back.
She hated not seeing IDs over people’s heads, not seeing their health bars… and the feeling that a dialogue box didn’t pop up when talking to them.
All of it made her feel anxious and very alien.
Caral bit her lip tightly; she had wanted multiple tis to ask the doctor to send her back to the world where she truly belonged.
But she couldn’t… In the realm of the Holy Spirit, she was the eloquent swindler and the healer.
But in this world… she found that her ability to speak had faded, she dared not communicate with anyone, and there were no familiar faces. The only visitors were one unfamiliar reporter after another.
Just when Caral was being shrouded in despair, a noisy commotion suddenly erupted outside the hospital room, then the door was abruptly pushed open.
Her mouth opened slightly, wanting to shout, “All of you damn reporters, if you don’t get lost, I’ll smash you with my Epic Cross.”
But where was her Epic Cross?
Caral hung her head low, staring at her empty hands, and did not pay attention to the figure entering through the door.
“Are you Xu Nai?” asked the female voice.
Caral was slightly puzzled; she hadn’t heard this na in a long ti, but the girl reached out her hand toward Caral.
“Hello, I’m Xia Shan!”
Xia Shan—now who was that?
Caral didn’t want to think about it, but the next second…
“But the na you’re familiar with must be Chang Qing, right?”
This sentence made Caral suddenly lift her head, looking at the girl in front of her with her hair tied in buns. If she were wearing a pair of steampunk-style goggles, a familiar figure that Caral knew began to overlap slowly.
“It’s finally a face-to-face eting in real life, is this an unexpected offline etup? Big Sis Caral?” Xia Shan said with a smile.
Caral didn’t say anything but excitedly reached out to hug Xia Shan. Her strength was very weak, but Xia Shan did not pull away and gently patted Caral’s back.
In the midst of emotion, Caral whispered into Xia Shan’s ear…
“Chang Qing, little sister…”
“I’m listening.”
“When are you going to sell that mining rig?”
Xia Shan was taken aback, and finally, Caral let go of her embrace, putting her hands on Xia Shan’s shoulders and said,
“Trust , just selling one will make you a fortune!”
“Now is not the ti to talk about that,” Xia Shan said sowhat awkwardly. “I don’t have a ga backpack or a mining rig now.”
“No backpack?”
Caral was puzzled when the reporters outside saw Xia Shan breaking in, they too wanted to barge in… but one of the most aggressive reporters was tripped and controlled on the floor by a figure wearing a mask and sunglasses.
Down the corridor, there was a bunch of similarly dressed figures, and the nurses and doctors, as if inford of sothing, were telling the reporters continuously that these people were the patient’s family and friends.
“I suggest you rest well during these three days of your suspension,” a figure with sunglasses and a mask walked in and said.
“President?” Caral recognized Jiang Qiao just by his voice, “That one outside couldn’t be… haha… Laughing Lord?”
“Shush! Don’t say it out loud. He’s even more popular than you!” Jiang Qiao said as Lin Xi followed behind; if news of Zhao Mingwei’s appearance here leaked, the number of reporters surrounding Caral’s hospital room would probably increase tenfold.
“Who are you?” Caral couldn’t guess Lin Xi’s identity.
“mber No. 5 of the Naless Guild, at least rember , huh!”
“Ah? And that one behind is… Can Xin, the president? And Caral Coffee?”
Caral didn’t have a deep impression of Lin Xi but recognized the other figures entering the hospital room, gradually filling the originally empty hospital room with a bunch of… strangers to Caral in real life.
“Pigheaded Healer! When are you going to sell the wind-dried at you promised?” Caral Coffee, also wearing a mask, though her popularity among these legends was the lowest.
“I’ve been damn suspended by the dog planner! A full three days!” Caral said, suddenly energized, but her heart rate soared rapidly.
“Alright, alright, it’s just three days,” Jiang Qiao consoled.
“But it seems like they are going to update to a new version soon,” Caral Coffee casually ntioned.
This statent caused Caral’s heart rate to skyrocket! A new version ant endless treasures of Gold Coins! The prerequisite was… she had to be completely prepared very early.
“Quick, call the healer! I an, call the doctor! Is the doctor here?” Jiang Qiao, seeing Caral’s rapidly ascending heartbeat and blood pressure, imdiately yelled out the door.
