Chapter 5 Yellow Needle_2

She was here to establish her authority and reward Chen Qi, but somehow, they ended up chatting.

And chatting quite excitedly!

This way, all her authority would be gone, and in a few days, they would call her Little Crow in secret... Little Crow handed him two pieces of bread:

"Eat some bread first, with dried fruit."

Chen Qi took the bread and took a bite. The slightly sweet taste of the dried fruit burst on his taste buds.

Refreshing!

Compared to modern bread, it was so hard it almost felt like a stone, but for Chen Qi, who had been starving all day, it was the ultimate delicacy.

Little Crow picked up her medical kit:

"Almost forgot, your reward."

According to their agreement, if he could complete more than ten tasks, he would get a special potion.

"Extraordinary Potion..."

Chen Qi swallowed his saliva. Being a master gamer, he knew the importance of potions.

If he wanted to fight monsters early on, Healing Potions or Strength Potions were essential tools!

Little Crow opened a hidden compartment in her medical kit, where several precious Extraordinary Potions were stored!

Chen Qi took another bite of bread, his eyes filled with anticipation.

Little Crow mumbled to herself as she rummaged through the compartment:

"This one... no, too strong, your body can't handle it. This one is for dogs, also no... this one is meant for women, no good either..."

Finally, she grasped a yellow syringe.

The golden liquid inside the syringe emitted a glow like gold!

Chen Qi's eyes lit up. That was very likely the best early-game Extraordinary Potion—the Yellow Needle!

"This one is too expensive, also no..."

She bit her lip and hesitated for a moment.

Although they had not been together long,

she had a good impression of Chen Qi. His performance was not like that of a slave; he worked diligently and had decent learning abilities.

Moreover, he was around her age, possessing limitless potential.

"This is a modified version..."

Little Crow felt slightly conflicted. Giving a newcomer this potion seemed overly generous.

Additionally, there was an unknown Sea Beast in his spine; who knew how long he could live.

Little Crow turned her head and glanced at Chen Qi again, her eyes filled with sympathy.

With this frail physique, he could not even make it back without some supplemental potions.

Besides, if she did not give it to him, greedy Black-eyed Captain would take it sooner or later.

"Never mind, I'll just take a loss!"

After all, as his superior, as long as he remained alive, she could extract greater value from him in the future.

Little Crow handed the special yellow potion to Chen Qi.

"Here is your reward, take it! Remember, this is from Raven, the doctor of the Black Whale Group's Sawshark, my modified masterpiece!"

"Thank you, Sister Raven! I will remember it forever!"

With bread in his mouth, Chen Qi took the precious yellow syringe with both hands.

Phantom text appeared before his eyes once again.

[Yellow Needle - Modified:

Nature Form: Cup

Description: A special potion from the fissure zone of the Golden Flower Bird Kingdom,

which significantly enhances a person's energy and endurance for twenty hours,

and slightly boosts a person's self-healing ability, capability value, and poison resistance, while permanently enhancing constitution and randomly changing attributes.

This potion is remixed with special deep-sea ingredients and possesses stronger effects than the original potion.

Note: Most permanently enhancing attribute potions do not have repeat effects.]

Yellow Needle! What a great item!

If he were not eating bread, Chen Qi would have exclaimed.

It not only could enhance combat abilities but also permanently increase attributes.

In early-game potions for ordinary players, those that permanently increased attributes were rare, and the Yellow Needle was one of the best.

Although it said it randomly changed attributes, data showed that the Yellow Needle's random attributes tended to be positive overall.

This rare import cost a lot of money.

If a handgun collector could buy five slaves like him, then the Yellow Needle could buy ten! Ten whole slaves!

Wait, why was he becoming a unit of measurement... Chen Qi mentally joked.

Little Crow made a gesture as if preparing to inject, and she gave a cold smile, a pirate's trademark:

"Do you know what this is?"

"I know, I heard about this potion in big cities, quite expensive. Thank you, Sister Raven."

Chen Qi said earnestly.

You know? Little Crow's mouth curled, her smile became more sinister:

"Hehehe~

This is my modified product, recombined with Sea Beast serum, refined through numerous experiments to produce a superior potion.

If I were at a medical college, I could patent this potion!"

Little Crow closed the medical kit, restraining her smile to maintain her superior's authority:

"Good things come at a cost. If you complete the extraction of nineteen cans of Sea Beast ingredients daily, only then will you earn the cost of this potion.

Right, my modified version takes time to take effect. Since we'll reach the fissure tomorrow morning, use it then.

In the fissure, you'll need the strength provided by the potion."

"Arriving at the fissure tomorrow morning!"

Chen Qi looked at the golden potion in his hand, analyzing the current situation in his mind.

Today, he spent some time understanding the status of the Sawshark and the fissure.

The Sawshark ranked low among the Black Whale Group's ships, with about sixty crew members.

Because of manpower issues, everyone had to go on the fissure exploration, including the ship's slaves, mostly used for the fissure.

To prepare for emergencies, they also had five steam-powered mini-boats with propellers.
