Chapter 88: Chapter 88: Bear with it
"Alright." After hearing its words, Xia Yue went to fetch herself a bottle of drink first, opened the lid, and placed it in front of her.
Then, she poured out a solid pill from the jade bottle, which was black but smelled fragrant, indicating it shouldn’t be too hard to consume.
Xia Yue placed the elixir in her mouth, and after entering her throat, it turned into a puddle of water and was swallowed.
Xia Yue almost threw up because of the taste of the elixir, and it was only after guzzling the drink in front of her that she was able to suppress the distasteful flavor.
"This is even more bitter than Chinese medicine, blech." Xia Yue said as she dry heaved a little.
[I’m glad I reminded you.] The system replied.
Remembering the taste, Xia Yue looked at the jade bottle and thought of the nine elixirs left inside, she felt a wave of nausea.
"Can I not eat the rest? They taste awful." Xia Yue frowned and asked the system.
[The unpleasant taste is temporary, but it can enhance your power], said the system, which saw, for the first time, a host who wanted to abandon power enhancement because the elixir tasted bad. The system felt ’tired’ as humans would say but thinking of her upcoming tasks, it continued to persuade her.
"But it tastes really bad, even worse than a stinky mandarin fish." Xia Yue frowned and said.
[You’ve tasted it before?] The system, aware of what it was, curiously asked her.
"No, but I’ve smelled it out of curiosity before and it was so unpleasant, it choked me more than gas does." Xia Yue shook her head and said.
[Bear with it and it will pass. Look at you now, you’re already fine, aren’t you? Just eat it nine more times and you’ll be fine. As long as you enhance your power, you won’t need to get up early for training. Isn’t that better?] Seeing her still reluctant, the system tried to persuade her by mentioning how much she hated getting up early.
"Alright then." Only after hearing that she didn’t need to get up early for training did Xia Yue reluctantly agree to continue eating.
At night, when Yan Mo finished his chores and returned home,
Xia Yue was waiting for him in the courtyard. Seeing him come in, she stood up and shouted, "Yan, you’re back. I was waiting for you."
Having heard what she said, Yan Mo looked at her curiously and asked, "What’s up?"
"I finished the lottery draw, got some stuff to research, and I’m giving it to you for submission. There’s this one thing that’s really cool." Xia Yue said with a smile.
"What good stuff? Seeing you this excited, is it a treatment cabin?" Yan Mo, seeing her state, asked with interest.
"No, it’s a high-level AI brain, you know, the communicator that can replace phones." Xia Yue shook her head and replied.
"Oh, I know about that, it’s really a good thing." Yan Mo’s eyes also lit up.
"Come into my room, I’ll tell you about what I got from the draw, as well as the rewards from that hotel." Xia Yue said with a smile.
"Okay," Yan Mo nodded and followed her into her room.
They sat down in the living room and Xia Yue, pointing to a few paper documents on the coffee table, started introducing them.
She pointed to the largest document and said, "This is the information on the high-level AI brain."
She then introduced one by one: "This is the information on how to configure the intermediate-level nutrient solution, a whitening ointment, and a rheumatism treatment ointment."
"I also drew 10 solid pills, 100 camellia saplings, 10 Thunderbolt Talismans, 1000 Blue-striped Sea Fish fry, a pack of quality rapeseed flower seeds, and a Nanny Robot. I asked the system about the solid pills and had one. It tasted awful."
Xia Yue told Yan Mo everything she got from the draw without any reservation.
Yan Mo listened to her attentively.
