CHAPTER 869: CHAPTER 581: THE POWER OF THREE TURDS

"Do we really have to do it like this?"

Liu Zheng looked at the thing in Doctor Nile’s hand, his mouth twitching.

In terms of shape, it actually looks more like an ice cream cone without the cone.

But with that yellow-brown color and the deep, subtle stench it exudes...

Alright, it’s basically a pile of poop.

"Weren’t those two crystals green and blue? How did they end up this color?"

He couldn’t help but ask.

"I’m the pharmacist. Once it’s in my hands, I can make it whatever color I want. If I wanted, I could even make a kaleidoscopic black. If you don’t believe me, I can reforge it for you right now."

Doctor Nile said proudly.

"I believe you, I believe you, it’s fine just like this."

Liu Zheng hurriedly took the poop.

Frankly, although it looks like a splat, the actual texture is closer to that of a bead, and the scarab that dragged it out really went through a lot.

"Name: Power of Three Poops (One-Time Use)"

"Type: Item"

"Quality: Perfect"

"Effect: Creates a large poisonous fog after use, all targets within the range having excretion capabilities will be attacked by resentment."

"Note: It must be special resentful poop that can poison an entire family along the way~"

"Can it be taken out of the instance: Yes"

"Power of Three Poops..."

Liu Zheng wanted to make a comment but held back.

Normally, Doctor Nile is the most normal and reliable person he knows.

But every time it involves his expertise, Doctor Nile becomes the hardest for him to handle.

"Doctor, do you know anything about Ethereal Alley?"

Liu Zheng chose to change the subject.

"I’ve heard of it, never been. Why, you delivering takeout there?"

"That’s right."

He nodded.

"Then I’ll go with you. That place isn’t just about brute force."

Doctor Nile volunteered.

"Thanks, Doctor, but I’ve already found someone to go with me. I’ll need your help with the Ten Thousand Great Mountains later, so for now, you should rest up."

Liu Zheng said with a smile.

You can’t just exploit one person continuously. Doctor Nile’s home has fools and patients; forcing him to be an enforcer all the time wouldn’t be fair.

"Alright. Remember, once you’re in, don’t eat, drink, or touch anything."

Doctor Nile warned.

"Got it. See you, Doc."

Upon leaving the clinic, Liu Zheng’s expression changed as he noticed the Sphinx pretending to sleep.

"Xiao An."

He called out in a high-pitched voice.

"Human, what did you just call me?"

Sure enough, the Sphinx opened its eyes, glaring at him.

"The great Lord Androsphinx."

Liu Zheng immediately corrected himself.

"Hmph, call me wrong again, and your tongue won’t be yours anymore."

The Sphinx threatened.

"If Lord An likes it, I can give you a tongue."

He said generously.

It’s just a tongue, it can regrow after being cut off.

"Who wants your tongue, that’s disgusting."

The Sphinx said disdainfully.

"And you never know who doesn’t brush their teeth, the tongue coating’s thicker than plaster."

Liu Zheng thought to himself.

"Lord An, I’m going to deliver takeout to a place filled with wizards, can you help me?"

He put on a pitiful look.

"No."

The Sphinx replied without hesitation.

"Don’t think you can drag me into trouble again, damn human!"

It swayed its big butt and disappeared into the clinic.

"Fine, don’t help. Why hide from me? I’m not here to collect debts."

Liu Zheng rolled his eyes.

"Let’s go to Medical Bee’s Big Pharmacy."

He told the driver after getting on the carriage.

Upon arrival, Liu Zheng directly knocked on the wood plaque of Medical Bee’s Big Pharmacy.

"Who?"

The deep voice of Medical Bee echoed from inside.

"It’s me."

He replied loudly.

"What are you here for again? Used up the last batch so quickly?"

Medical Bee asked in confusion.

Though its ’Di Yega’ concoction wasn’t that potent, the amount wasn’t one to finish in just two days.

"Two things. First, give me back my medicine jar."

Liu Zheng said.

"That’s just an ordinary medicine jar, why do you want it?"

"Even if it’s a pile of poop, it’s no reason for you to take it without saying a word."

He retorted.

"I can pay for it."

Medical Bee offered.

"I could sell it, but first, you must return it to me. It’s a matter of principle."

Liu Zheng insisted.

"Never seen such a stubborn human before."

Medical Bee grumbled.

The door opened, and the medicine jar rolled out through the crack.

"Great, now you can name your price."

He said, picking up the jar.

"Ten thousand."

Medical Bee quoted.

Liu Zheng shook his head.

"It’s truly just a common medicine jar, maybe with some collectible value. You could ask around elsewhere; ten thousand is pretty high. I could possibly add another five thousand at most."

Medical Bee said through gritted teeth.

"My point is, your offer is too high; a hundred bucks would suffice."

He said.

"Hmm? Human, what scheme are you plotting?"

Medical Bee asked suspiciously.

"No scheme. Whether it’s ten thousand or a hundred, neither amount is important to me, but your respect is."

Liu Zheng said calmly.

"A hundred bucks and an apology, and the jar is yours."

"And if I don’t apologize?"

Medical Bee asked.

"Since you’ve returned it to me, we can drop it here, but I assure you, you won’t want to know what you’re missing."

He said.

"..."

Medical Bee fell into silence.

"Time’s up, goodbye."

Liu Zheng checked his phone and waved goodbye.
