After the doctor inputted a few commands, the Jia Luo’s, which had been placed flat in the treatment cabin, slowly rose and was tilted at a 45-degree angle. Then, the nutrient fluid in the treatment cabin poured out of the drainage pipe at the end of Jia Luo’s feet.
After the nutrient fluid was drained, dozens of water holes in the treatment cabin sprayed warm water and cleansing liquid onto Jia Luo, washing Jia Luo clean. This cleansing process lasted for nearly 20 minutes.
Finally, the ventilation device inside the treatment cabin dried the water on the surface of his body. Then, the entire treatment process ended.
After that, the lid of the biological treatment cabin opened. The doctor handed Jia Luo a towel and clothes. Jia Luo wiped the water stains from his body and hair. After getting dressed, Jia Luo looked brand new. He no longer seemed like a slave.
Jia Luo was then taken to the restaurant, where he ate some food. Of course, it was mainly liquid food. After all, he had not eaten normally for a long time and needed to slowly recover his gastrointestinal function.
Furthermore, he had been malnourished for a long time and needed proper nutrition.
After eating his fill, Jia Luo was taken to a luxurious conference suite. Then, he met the young man who had previously asked him a question in the reception room of the suite.
This young man handed the service staff a few point cards. After the two service staff received the money, they left happily. Soon after, a very beautiful young girl brought a pot of hot tea and left. Then, she closed the door to the conference suite.
Upon seeing Jia Luo enter, Peter made an inviting gesture.
“Please have some tea.”
Jia Luo sat down carefully and looked at Peter very warily. His eyes were filled with vigilance and mistrust. However, to hide his uneasiness, he took a sip of his tea and then looked coldly at Peter.
“You’re free. You’re no longer a slave. You can go anywhere you want and I won’t stop you.”
Peter’s words stunned Jia Luo.
“What exactly is your goal?”
“I don’t have any goal. I was just looking for a mysterious warrior when I met you. It doesn’t matter if you don’t want to help me. However, I didn’t think it was appropriate to see a Genetic Warrior die there in such a cowardly manner. Thus, I saved you.”
“Thank you, then. Farewell.”
Jia Luo got up and prepared to leave.
“Don’t be anxious. You’re penniless now. After all, this is the northern region. How are you going to leave and live? Are you going to be captured and sold as a slave after eating a free meal?”
No. 0 looked at Jia Luo, who was preparing to leave, in a teasing manner.
“I’ll work. I believe that I can still earn a living.”
“Haha…”
No. 0 laughed loudly after hearing his words.
“This is the northern area, and slaves are everywhere. They are the cheapest labor in the area. Where will you find a job? Can you compete with them? Besides, what will you do besides being a Genetic Warrior?”
No’s 0’s words pierced through Jia Luo’s heart like an awl poking a balloon.
He stopped and sat back dejectedly. He had to admit that Peter was telling the truth, a bloody truth.
At this moment, Peter spoke to calm Jia Luo’s unstable emotions.
“Don’t be in such a hurry to leave. Sit down and drink some tea. We can have a good chat. However, I spent over 10,000 points on treating you in the treatment cabin over the past five days. It doesn’t matter where you go, but don’t get captured by the slave traders soon. Otherwise, my points would have been wasted.”
Jia Luo calmed himself down, picked up his glass, and drank a large mouthful of wine.
“My name is Jia Luo.”
