Chapter 10 (1/2)
“Lord He, the list of Yawa country’s ambassadors, was confirmed. There are 42 people altogether. Please take a look at it.” Fei Ta handed a document to He Lin.
He Lin received the document, and as expected, the name “Tikaman” stood on the list.
“The diplomat will arrive in our country on the 27th of this month. The Secretary-General has already begun preparations for the reception. Your Highness, you….”
He Lin knew what Fei Ta was worried about. The Secretary-General would hands down request an audience with him two days before the event to ask him whether to come out in person or find excuses to shirk. Either way, it would be enough for Tikaman to seal his conjecture that He Lin sustained injuries.
“What’s the progress on Zog’s side?” He Lin looked at his adjutant.
“The medical team has developed several psychotropic drugs, but the efficacy was unsatisfactory. Although the grade was high, they were unstable, ranging between 1 to 3 stars.”
He Lin retracted his gaze, a crease forming on his brow. The two-star Jump drug was no different than failure among the specialized medicines.
“Fei Tuo, ask Zog to send me the information on the several drugs and conduct a drug test for me as soon as possible. Choose the medications with the adaptability of over 75% and make relevant improvements to them. Be sure to complete it before the diplomats arrive.”
‘What?’ Fei Tuo almost shouted this to his superior. This was a dangerous game they were playing, and one wrong move could make things much worse. “No, this would only aggravate your mental damage. If we were to be a little incautious, it might lead to permanent damage.”
He Lin intertwined his fingers and sat on the sofa, his whole body taut, and a glimmer of light flashed in his deep, inky eyes.
“As a matter of fact, I’m curious to know whether Tikaman can maintain his usual mental power when facing an S-level enhancer whose mental power is on the verge of destruction.”
Fei Tuo: “…….”
“If possible, I would like to make a ‘friendly’ return visit to Yava with the most ‘active’ mental state.” He Lin’s usual low timbered voice seemed to fringe with regret. “It’s a pity that the chairman won’t probably give consent….”
Fei Tuo: ‘Don’t make it as if it’s the chairman’s fault for disagreeing. Yava will not let you enter their country at all!’
But his misery did not stop when He Lin, who looked composed as ever, turned his head at Fei Tuo with his back ramrod straight and said thoughtfully, “If I can’t restrain my chaotic mental power, then find a way to make it more ‘active.’”
Fei Tuo: ‘Lord He, your current thinking is dangerous, do you know? Please calm down!’
In contrast to his adjutant’s worry, He Lin did not even feel the slightest agitation. By ‘active,’ he referred to an active mental power only within a controllable range. It was much simpler to release power than to suppress it continuously forcibly. Rather than waiting for the opponent to make trouble, it was better to gain the initiative to strike the first blow. Only this approach was too perilous and bold, and he reckoned no one would agree.
In the evening, He Lin finished his routine treatment and returned to the bedroom.
As soon as he finished showering, he heard a mechanical beep in his intellectual brain. [Master, your account “Your Excellency H” received a message from the Huahua World Leader.]
He almost forgot that he had ordered medicine from a young man named “Roy” not too long ago.
“Receive.”
[Huahua World Leader: “Your Excellency H, hello. I am Huahua World’s shop owner. The customized specialized drugs you ordered have been made. The following texts contain information on the treatments. If you have any queries, please message me at any time.]
He Lin clicked on the screen. Dozens of holographic peripherals containing the information were unfolded one by one before him.
Huyuan Pill¹, Zhuqing Pill², Yunli Pill³, Nourishing Spirit Pill⁴ — the data was in three-dimensional texts and graphics, which presented a detailed introduction to the twelve pills.
At first glance, the spiritual nature of the pills instantly attracted him. There was no trace of modification, yet it resembled the highest quality by its simpleness and impressive atmosphere. Through only looking at the pictures, it gave people a sense of serenity and auspiciousness.
Following this was He Lin, noticing their level of quality: 4-star middle grade!
Twelve pills and all of them are 4-star middle grades!
They were specialized medicine to treat an A-level mental power enhancer. In ordinary times, it was a feat if it could reach 3-stars. But now, what emerged before his eyes were twelve 4-stars medium grades! And a complete set of a course of treatment.
If He Lin had not investigated Roy beforehand and had some understanding of his character to some extent, he surmised he would be skeptical that the man provided him with fraudulent drugs. It was indeed an arduous task to believe that a 21-year-old man could refine such a level of specialty medicine? Not to mention that his mental power was less than C.
In the beginning, he ordered medicine from Roy because of the intriguing, unique effects of the Ningxiang Pill. After investigating his identity, he felt the youngster had a moral character; hence, he thought of giving him a hand. But in fact, it did not cross his mind that the young man could make such high-grade specialized drugs.
However…
He Lin thumbed over and over the data, inwardly apprehensive by the curative effects of this combination of specialized drugs.
As he was in deep contemplation, the display profile belonging to Huahua World Leader took him by surprise as it bloomed on the screen, revealing a radiant, smiling face, swinging happily side to side: [Are you there?]
Your Excellency H: [En.]
Huahua Leader: [Have you received the information?]
Your Excellency H: [Hmm.]
Huahua Leader: [I have only conducted a basic evaluation of this set of drugs, and the specific effects need to be tested by you.]
Specialized drugs and therapeutic drugs differed from ordinary conventional drugs. They needed to undergo testing before releasing it into the market. Unless the medications were a systematic treatment performed in a professional institution, the drug’s safety without testing could be guaranteed.
Your Excellency H: [These medicines are all refined by you?]
Huahua Leader: [Yes. Is there any problem?]
Your Excellency H: [Nothing…]
Huahua Leader: [Then, it’s good if there is none. The price of this drug is relatively high, so you think about it more before deciding to purchase it.]
Your Excellency H: [How much is the cost?]
Huahua Leader: [Full price is 60W, minus the initial deposit, altogether you still have 53W to pay.]
