Chapter 179: Chapter 178: Unstable Mind

Then Yuan Hewen got up from his armchair, mumbling as he walked, "I wonder who it is, who gives this sort of thing as a birthday present."

When Qu Tong saw the item, she was also a bit stunned.

If she wasn’t mistaken, this thing was a turret, which was a bit different from the ones she had seen in her previous life, but she could still tell from the main components.

Without much thought, she was certain about the person who had sent the gift.

Qu Tong took out Jun Li’s light computer from her space button, and sure enough, both Palace Commander and Fu Jin had sent her messages.

Neither of them knew her birthday, and their visit yesterday had been purely coincidental.

However, how did the Palace Commander know she needed a turret?

Qu Tong turned her suspicious gaze towards Old Yuan, "Do you have a star planet under your name?"

"It seems so, I bought a star planet before to plant medicinal materials, but after some issues arose, I stopped managing it. I’ve even forgotten where it is," Yuan Hewen vaguely said.

Qu Tong’s mouth twitched slightly, it seemed the old man used to be quite wealthy, and she made a mental note to check on that later.

Thinking about whether she should increase his meal allowance.

"This is from the Palace Commander, I’ll deal with it when I get back."

After speaking, Qu Tong ended the video call and, using Jun Li’s account, replied to Gong Yun expressing her gratitude, deciding to give them more potions next time.

Qu Tong was unaware that this idea played right into Gong Yun’s hands.

Gong Yun found that whenever he sent them something, Old Yuan and Miss Jun Li would give him extra potions.

So he decided that from time to time he would send them "local specialties," which was much easier than competing for potions from the Alchemist Association and also much more willingly given.

Qu Tong then replied to both the Empress and Butler Chi’s communications.

Meanwhile, Yuan Hewen had followed Qu Tong’s instructions and put up a link in the store for purchasing Moonlight Grass, pricing it at 5,000 Star Coins per plant.

Although it was not as high as the 8,000 Star Coins offered by the Alchemist Association, it was higher than the original market price of the Moonlight Grass at 3,500 Star Coins.

Ever since the Alchemist Association began to purchase Moonlight Grass across the entire network, many mercenary teams had specifically ventured into the dangerous Star Beast Zone to collect Moonlight Grass, indirectly increasing the pressure on the Legion.

Even the account of Potion Grandmaster Yuan, who hadn’t been heard from for over a decade, appeared online, openly seeking partnerships with Purified Moonlight Grass cultivators.

With these operations, many netizens speculated about the turbulent undercurrents behind the scenes.

#Moonlight Grass eagerly sought by two major potion merchants, value skyrockets#

#Teaming up to search for Moonlight Grass in the Star Beast Zone, only for those with A-rank constitution and above#

#Moonlight Grass shortage, potions face new trends#

#Suspected new potion on the horizon, requires large volume of Moonlight Grass#

#Will next month’s output share of Advanced Mind Stabilizing Potions decrease?#

Various related terms were hotly discussed by the vast number of netizens, and multiple forces were closely monitoring the latest movements of the Alchemist Association and Miss Ali’s God of Wealth Temple.

Si Yuting left for several days, and Qu Tong’s week-long internship period was almost over.

While taking online courses, Qu Tong used an alternate account to keep an eye on the Alchemist Association’s movements, watching as the situation developed just as she had imagined.

Qu Tong did not bother Si Yuting when there was nothing to do.

Over the past few days, however, she had managed to build a good relationship with the Logistics Department’s Chef Xiong.

Actually, Chef Xiong of the Logistics Department wasn’t bad at cooking, with a style reminiscent of a veteran from the Sichuan and Chongqing region.

Everyone usually opted for Energy Drinks to save trouble during training, and occasional improvements to the food were hindered by the ingredients, failing to meet everyone’s taste.

Qu Tong simply had Xiang Bin send over plenty of fresh ingredients, so those in the logistics department could enjoy delicious and spicy meals.

Even Jiang Zhou, who used to linger in the medical room, showed up on time for meals in the logistics department twice a day.

The meat was taken directly from the fridge in her Space Button; when she had time, she planned to buy a freezer to put into it.

Ke Jun was already in contact with a breeding farm to buy young animals, and it wouldn’t be long before they could do away with the pretense of using Purification Liquid.

When Qu Tong received a message from Xiong Lie and came out of her room, she only saw a soldier anxiously waiting at the door of the medical room.

She asked someone randomly and quickly understood the situation.

The rescue mission had been successful, but Si Yuting had become mentally unstable on the way back, showing signs of an outburst.

Qu Tong frowned; Yuting’s condition had clearly improved a great deal compared to the last time they went searching for the Kagura Flower.

Xiong Lie consoled Qu Tong, "Madam, don’t worry. Jiang Zhou has gone to get medicine. The chief is so strong, he will surely be fine."

Qu Tong nodded and said no more.

After a short while, Jiang Zhou returned briskly with the items, not even glancing at the crowd by the medical room, and went straight in.

The medical room door was equipped with an infrared recognition system which closed immediately after Jiang Zhou entered.

Everyone else was used to it and simply stood guard outside.

Qu Tong originally just wanted to walk up to the door to look through the glass, but to her surprise, the door opened directly.

Jiang Zhou inside turned his head, hesitated, and then said to Qu Tong, "Madam, if you are worried, come in."

Qu Tong entered upon hearing his words.

Qu Tong followed Jiang Zhou to the front of a windowless room.

As Jiang Zhou turned around, ready to tell Qu Tong not to come in yet, he found that Qu Tong had already stopped, so he said nothing more.

Jiang Zhou went in and out several times, his expression indicating the situation was quite tricky. Qu Tong couldn’t see inside, only faintly hearing repressed panting.

After a while, Jiang Zhou came out and said to Qu Tong, "Madam, you can go in now."

Qu Tong looked at the smart lock secured by Jiang Zhou and walked in.

Si Yuting was still in military uniform, the sharp-featured man now lay quietly in the medical chamber, his lips pale, some sweat at his temples, with black restraints on his arms, legs, waist, and neck.

Jiang Zhou explained that these were Strong Magnetic Controllers, which could reduce the intensity of the Special Abilities released by Yuting.

"The general’s condition is very bad; his outburst level has reached 90%. I’ve injected him with an enhanced version of a sedative from the research institute. The general is now unconscious and temporarily out of danger," Jiang Zhou explained the situation to Qu Tong with a worried look.

Qu Tong, not quite reassured by the lack of control, wondered, "Isn’t there any medication?"

Jiang Zhou hesitated, then decided to tell her.

After all, Yuting had entered Qu Tong’s information into the assistant robots, granting her significant authorization, which clearly indicated her special status in his heart.

"The Special Grade Potion from the Alchemist Association has little effect on the general now."

"Are there no other medications? Otherwise, how has Yuting made it through all these years?"

Jiang Zhou was taken aback, having misunderstood, not expecting that the general had already told his wife.

After his surprise, he readily accepted it; the general was such a man of principles, yet he made an exception for his wife to come to their base, giving her almost the same level of access as himself. They were husband and wife; what could they not share?

Jiang Zhou let out a sigh, expressing his regret, "The Silver Potion that was acquired at the auction last time, the general had already used it three months ago, and now we haven’t located that Pharmacist."
