To resurrect a dead lover?
It's perfectly normal to want to obtain precious treasures.
Holy crap, what the heck is this about borrowing a toilet?!
At this moment, Luo Zhen's feelings were very complicated, but considering that Skadi was from the continent of Terra, he felt relieved.
This is what our continent of Terra looks like.
[Request: Terra is far behind in terms of civilian technology; even flush toilets are rare on land, which makes her, who is from Agor, very uncomfortable. Please provide her with clean sanitation.]
[Reward for Commission: 100 Commission Crystals]
What else could Luo Zhen say?
"Of course, please come in."
He led Skadi into the bathroom, closed the door, and heard the clear sound of running water and the notification sound indicating the completion of the task. He felt a little guilty for earning those 100 task crystals; who could charge so much for using the toilet?
Skadi didn't contribute? That's alright then.
Skadi seemed to relax in this long-lost, advanced environment. She was humming a song while washing her hands, but as soon as she stepped out of the bathroom, she stopped singing and reverted to her aloof demeanor.
"Thank you."
Skadi politely inquired, "How many LMD?"
"It's just going to the toilet, there's no need for that."
Luo Zhen said, "Besides that, don't you have any other requests?"
Skadi hesitated for a moment, then said, "I have a friend who had a large amount of liquid Originium injected into her spinal cord, which ravaged her body and mind. She keeps switching between different degrees of delirium and madness, and only regains her senses on rare occasions. Do you have any way to help her regain her sanity?"
She didn't expect to be cured of Oripathy. In Terra, Oripathy was an incurable disease, which had become a consensus. Even in such a magical place, she didn't have any hope of curing it.
[Request: Skadi hopes to restore Specter's sanity]
[Commission Fee: 3,000 Commission Crystals]
Ghost Shark, Luo Zhen knows her. Like Skadi, she is a Deepsea Hunter. After being captured by the Deepsea Church, she was injected with liquid Originium that could pollute a city into her spinal cord. She is still alive, but she is mostly insane.
All of this is thanks to the Sea Child tissue within her body. Sea Child possesses extremely high resistance to Oripathy, but also has severe Originium Arts defects, making it impossible for her to use Originium Arts.
"I can give it a try, but I need to prepare some things beforehand."
Luo Zhen left for a while and came back with a bottle filled with a clear, somewhat viscous liquid. His face and arms were covered with teeth marks.
Skadi was somewhat surprised: "What's this?"
Luo Zhen took a few oranges from Doro and said, "It's okay that you got scratched, let's go."
He followed Skadi out of the hut and arrived at a base. People passed by from time to time, curiously looking at Rōzō.
"This is Rhodes Island, and these are all Rhodes Island operators."
Skadi explained to Rhodes Island, "The shark was rescued from Rhodes Island and is recuperating here."
Upon reaching the medical department, Luo Zhen was stopped because he didn't have a pass. Skadi then belatedly realized, "Do I need to report in advance?"
"Of course, you need to report it in advance."
Hibiscus looked slightly exasperated. "How did you get into Rhodes Island without reporting it? You couldn't have sneaked in, could you?"
"They came in directly."
Skadi was very sincere, and the naive girl hadn't realized how serious a security incident it would be if what she said was true, and outsiders could enter Rhodes Island directly without registration.
Furong was already considering whether to press the alarm, but having spent so much time in the medical room, her vigilance wasn't as strong, and since Luo Zhen hadn't resorted to force, she felt a little embarrassed to press it.
"Call Kal'tsit here."
Luo Zhen said, "Just say that the prophet's friend f岄/.亿亦柒一（八）斯覇 came to visit."
Although Furong didn't understand who the prophet was, she still reported the news. Immediately afterward, she heard something break on the other end of the phone.
She rarely heard anxiety in Kal'tsit's voice: "I'm coming right away."
Before long, hurried footsteps approached rapidly from afar.
Kal'tsit immediately looked at the only stranger, Ryoujin.
There are no obvious racial characteristics.
Her heart stopped. That name was not one that an ordinary person would know. Could it be that, besides the prophet and Precyth, someone else had survived?
As a creation of a previous civilization, Kal'tsit was well aware of the former civilization's strength, and she cautiously probed Rōjin:
"Excuse me, who are you?"
"My name is Luo Zhen. Where is the prophet?"
Luo Zhen looked at Kal'tsit and, to avoid her saying any difficult riddles, directly called on her, "Ama-10, answer me."
ha!!!!
Upon hearing the name, Kal'tsit instinctively arched her back, transforming into a spiny dragon, and looked at Ryoujin warily, appearing hesitant and unsure of what to do.
Luo Zhen wasn't surprised. Kal'tsit dared to breathe on Prisus, who had access to Originium, and ended up being locked in a dark room and brutally violated by him. She didn't even know if she would come out alive.
It's perfectly normal to breathe on a stranger like him.
“You’re becoming a bit unfriendly, Ama-10. This isn’t how a good cat should behave.”
I'm not a cat, I'm a person!
Kal'tsit in her Spinosaurus form wanted to say that, but she didn't dare.
Hibiscus, standing to the side, was so surprised that her mouth could fit a goose egg. As one of the founders of Rhodes Island and its current leader, Kal'tsit, who was always calm and strong, was actually showing fear. This was unimaginable to Hibiscus.
Since there were outsiders present, Kal'tsit didn't lose her composure too much, but her tone softened considerably: "You came to Rhodes Island to find the Prophet?"
"He's in Chernobog, why would I come to Rhode Island to find him?"
Kal'tsit dared not speak. After Theresa was assassinated and the Tower of Babel collapsed, Kal'tsit sent the severely injured and amnesiac Doctor to sleep in the Chernobog sarcophagus.
Even few people on Rhodes Island knew about this news. She hadn't expected that Luo Zhen seemed to have been watching her every move, with everything under his control.
Kal'tsit was afraid.
Now that the doctor is asleep and Priscilla is nowhere to be found, she doesn't dare to breathe on this human who seems to be from a pre-civilization era.
Who knows if he has access to some powerful weapons?
No one understood the horrors of the pre-civilization better than her.
Her tone became respectful: "What do you require?"
"Don't be nervous, I'm just here to help Skadi rescue her friend Specter."
Kal'tsit asked cautiously, "Have you conquered Oripathy?"
"No, if you really want to cure Oripathy, you'll have to go find Precyth now."
Precyth, who controls the Originium, should be able to do it.
Luo Zhen said, "I'm just helping her relieve some mental stress. Let's start the surgery. Didn't she have a large amount of liquid Originium injected into her spinal cord? Let's operate to drain that Originium."
"Spinal surgery?"
Furong immediately objected, "If it were that easy to operate, we would have done it long ago. These are critical areas; a slight mistake could lead to paralysis or even death."
"Of course I have my own way."
Luo Zhen glanced at Skadi, "I'm absolutely confident, it just depends on whether you're willing to try."
Skadi remembered the magical information indoctrination technology of the commission cabin and decided to trust Rōjin.
Others may not know, but she comes from Agor, which possesses some of the technology of the pre-civilization. Skadi is also a science student and an electrical engineer. She is the best technician in the management office and can maintain the underwater light array of an entire city all by herself.
She understood the value of contactless information transmission and the rather casual spatial transfer technology better than most people present. Even if Luo Zhen said he wanted to perform craniotomy on Ghost Shark, remove his brain and replace it with a new body, she would still think it was technically feasible.
Therefore, she chose to believe Luo Zhen.
Hibiscus wanted to say something more, but Kal'tsit interrupted her: "If it were anyone else, I wouldn't agree to the surgery; that would be murder. But if it's him, the chances of success are very high."
Furong immediately shut up. Could this be some big shot in the medical field? Well, someone who can make even Dr. Kal'tsit wary must be at the very top of the industry. Maybe Dr. Kal'tsit even studied under him.
Oh no, I'm worried that someone as important as him might be targeted and punished after his name is remembered.
Hibiscus was a little scared, but she still prepared for Ghost Shark's surgery in a decisive and efficient manner.
The most difficult part now is getting Ghost Shark to cooperate with the surgery. She's currently in a berserk, bloodthirsty state. We've given her a sedative to calm her down, but judging by the time, the sedative's effects are almost worn off.
"Hehe, hahaha..."
A maniacal laugh echoed in the ward, and a girl dressed in a nun's habit rushed out, her scarlet eyes filled with madness.
Skadi raised her greatsword: "Shark, this is for your own good."
No!
Hibiscus was wailing. Even though she had never been on a field mission with Skadi, she knew that Skadi's fighting style was extremely wild. When carrying out missions, she often destroyed local buildings, tore apart the metal protective walls of the target's defenses, and caused valleys to collapse when she attacked the target fortress alone.
If a fight breaks out, the entire medical department will need to be renovated.
The next moment, her greatsword was pressed down and she was unable to move. Skadi was very surprised, as this was the first time she had encountered a human whose power was greater than hers.
"Don't worry, leave it to me. Now that I've accepted the commission, I'll do my best."
The next moment, Luo Zhen's figure appeared behind Ghost Shark.
Black Mamba Elbow Strike!
Ghost Shark was knocked off balance, and Luo Zhen was a little troubled. He only wanted to knock Ghost Shark unconscious, not kill him. It was really hard to control the force.
Then I'll just have to hit it a few more times.
Elbow strike! Elbow strike! Elbow strike!
Skadi was dazzled by what she saw. Kal'tsit noticed that Rozen's physical abilities were even superior to those of the Deepsea Hunters, while the Doctor's body was extremely weak. She couldn't help but wonder if Rozen had used genetic modifications on her.
Finally, after a series of elbow strikes, Ghost Shark peacefully fell asleep.
"Let's begin the surgery."
Luo Zhen said, "If I wake up during the procedure, I will be responsible for administering the anesthesia."
Is this considered anesthesia?
