Chapter 5 - Deformation Pill (1/2)
Deformation Pill
An Xian registered an account in this forum under the name of “Huahua League Master”, created a virtual room for her small store, and posted a promotion for the new medicine that would soon come.
[Want to know what latent capacity your genes hide? The magical “Deformation Pill” will make you more gorgeous as you transform— Huahua World will randomly select five flower friends and give them a free “Deformation Pill” each.]
A few minutes hadn’t passed, when it was soon followed by someone after the post was released.
1st floor: [Deformation Pill? What’s that?]
2nd floor: [This sounds very suspicious and awkward. I want to try it.]
3rd floor: [It’s actually from Huahua World? Support it. Owner, I am your loyal buyer.]
4th floor: [Owner, dare you to introduce the medicinal effect of Deformation Pill in detail?]
5th floor: [I came here for “free.”]
6th floor: [Owner, pick me ah. I’ll make a live broadcast for you.]
7th floor: [The upstairs really do lack common sense. Who couldn’t make a live broadcast nowadays?]

These kinds of forums astounded An Xian for its popularity among the netizens. Her post had quickly built up into a high-rise building, even though most of the floors were only there for the free quota.
During the heated discussion for a lot of matters, with some including other off-topic things, An Xian announced the names of the five lucky ones: naked crested myna, doubled eggplant, daomei, quizhang¹, and Fenghuaxueyue².
A moment of silence rolled from the floors, and then instantly replaced by an uproar.
47th floor: [Your cow, Host, do you want to shoot so quickly?! I haven’t even finished taking my pants off, yet you’ve already finished?!]
48th floor: [The host is really something of a stunner ah. He doesn’t play the cards at all in their usual rules. Others have to have an appetite for at least a few days before picking, yet the host can do it in less than ten minutes? It is definitely the great shot king of the fast gunners.]
49th floor: [Hahaha, I really am a king of luck and I was the first to win. Don’t worry, Owner, I’ll give you s live broadcast as I take the medicine.]
50th floor: [I wasn’t careful to regard that as “eat as we fly.”]
51st floor: [Will likely watched that live broadcast.]

An Xian did not continue to pay attention to the lively comments of the floors, and left the forum with the sentence “Deformation Pill will be sent in three days.”
Put the finished products of the first refining session in the furnace away and cleaned the furnace of any medicinal residue. An Xian busied herself in refining the new medicine that would be delivered to the winners later on. Placing the new material in, fetching it out, and continuing to make more. Although the other orders of the customers had not been completed, there was still time to refine the five Deformation Pills, which would take about a day to start doing so since some additional materials needed to be ordered elsewhere.
One of the reasons why An Xian chose the Deformation Pill was that the materials for refining the pill were easier to find. Moreover, the prices of them were not expensive, although the quality may not be as good as those she cultivated herself. Fortunately, the junior Deformation Pill was just kind of an entertaining medicine and only required low spiritual energy to consume.
Two days later, An Xian refined 15 Deformation Pills, and its quality was tested as 2-star middle-grade. Despite the similarities, her 2-star middle-grade was not in the same class as the Zongyun Pill she had encountered days ago.
According to the addresses left by the five people. An Xian mailed the Deformation Pills one by one, and just waited for the live broadcast of the testers. In order to let them take the initiative to make a live broadcast on their own, An Xian specifically stated the effect of Deformation Pill in the email and promised that there would be new drugs in the future, and they would have the first priority for a free trial.
The postal speed in this era was as fast as that of a rocket. Even if the recipient’s location was distanced by half of the planet, it still could be delivered on the same day as it was shipped.
Mi Duo was a student of Azure University. When the courier arrived, she was chatting with her roommates in their dormitory.
“Mi Duo, what did you buy again this time?” roommate 1 asked curiously.
Mi Duo casually said, “This was drawn randomly in the forum lottery, and I don’t know what it is.”
“Open it up and let’s take a look.” Roommate 2 urged her with interest.
Mi Duo unpacked the package, and what appeared in front of several people was a glittering and translucent, simple and unadorned small bottle.
“Wow, what a beautiful bottle. Is this what you got?”
The semi-transparent bottled was sleek to touch and cold. Mi Duo caressed it lovingly for a while as if entranced by it, then shook her head and said, “It’s not the bottle, but the contents of the bottle.”
Opening the bottle’s lid, an elegant and sweet fragrance immediately assailed their nostrils, like a fresh dew of the morning light scent, invigorating the people’s spirits awake and relaxed.
Mi Duo was itching to get on with the pill’s instructions. After reading it, her face was full of excitement.
“Quick, quick, quick! I’m going to take the medicine and make a live broadcast right away!” Mi Duo searched for her favorite clothes in her closet and got dressed, and sent a post on the Internet with enthusiasm. Posts could be set to text mode or converted into virtual live broadcast mode.
[Just received the Deformation Pill from the Leader of Huahua World. The live broadcast of Daomei will begin!]
Mi Duo’s online username was “Daomei”, which was quite popular in this forum. Not long after it was dispatched, the post swiftly gained a number of followers.
Daomei: “Let’s show the refined packaging of the Deformation Pill first. It’s absolutely high-end and impressive in quality.”
The camera revolved 360-degrees only encasing the small bottle as its primary subject. With the lighting cast upon it, the crystal luster of the bottle was plainly visible.
56th floor: [This bottle alone is worth thousands of points! Luxurious, it is indeed extravagant ah!]
74th floor: [Classical-styles small container, very exquisitely made.]
77th floor: [I have seen similar imitations, but none of them have this extraordinary gloss.]
81st floor: [With just the bottle being gorgeous, I started to look forward to the efficacy of the Deformation Pill.]
This comment was followed by a long list of + + + +.
“Deformation Pill, 2-star middle-grade, lasting effect for 3-5 hours, According to personal genes, the body will undergo different wonderful changes,” Mi Duo gave a brief introduction of the Pill, and then shyly added, “I’m so nervous. I don’t know what I will become. If I become ugly, please, don’t despise me.”
112th floor: [Daomei, worry not. No matter what you change into, I will love you.]
