The world has turned into Hell's Game, why should I stay human?!-Chapter 1294: Hand No Longer Hurts That Much; Should Be Able to Update Normally Tomorrow, Sorry Everyone
"Can it be taken out of the instance: Yes"
"This is a transcendental item I’ve crafted from the sickness qi remnants of over a thousand patients recovering from serious illness. It can help you defend against disease attacks, but you might catch a small cold. You just need to take off the necklace when you exit."
Bai Tianshi introduced.
"Not bad, I’ll take it then."
Liu Zheng directly hung the necklace around his neck.
A wisp of sickness qi floated out from the black four-leaf clover and entered his nose.
"Ah Qiu!"
Liu Zheng sneezed loudly, and a stream of yellow-green snot dripped from his nostril.
"You’ve got rhinitis."
Bai Tianshi gave a professional diagnosis.
"Thank you, diagnostician, but there’s no consultation fee."
He rolled his eyes.
"Let’s go."
Liu Zheng rubbed his nose and entered the elevator with Bai Tianshi.
"Ding!"
The elevator reached the first floor, the doors opened, and someone in scrubs was standing outside.
"What are you..."
He looked at the two with an uncertain expression.
"Actually, I’m here because Bai Tianshi’s family asked me to save him."
Liu Zheng directly explained.
"I see."
The person in scrubs suddenly became relieved.
Though asking a delivery person from the Bloody Restaurant to save someone was absurd, it explained Liu Zheng’s previously outrageous behavior.
"Brother Liu, you’re putting me in a tough spot here."
The person in scrubs sighed.
"Doctor Qu, you don’t actually want Bai Tianshi to die, do you?"
Liu Zheng said.
Earlier, while smoking and chatting, the person in scrubs had already shown some inclinations.
"We’re colleagues. There’s no conflict of interest between us, why would I hope for his death?"
The person in scrubs said matter-of-factly.
"Then that’s easy."
Liu Zheng’s gaze moved past the person in scrubs to look behind him.
The White Coat also walked in from outside.
"You guys give it your all to defend, and I’ll try not to kill you."
Liu Zheng flashed a big white smile.
"Boom!"
The long-prepared artificial body instantly powered up fully.
The sky-high flames were too much even for Bai Tianshi nearby, forcing him to step back.
The Eternal Purgatory Shura Great Dharma Wheel spun once again, but this time it wasn’t just one lonely wheel, but eight virtual wheels surrounding one solid wheel.
Each turn drained Liu Zheng’s stamina at a frantic pace.
The dried fish he just ate to replenish his strength seemed to be running out in an instant.
"Looks like I’ll need to find something to massively replenish my stamina once I get out."
Liu Zheng thought while launching his attack.
The nine Dharma Wheels fired at full power, eight virtual wheels pinning the person in scrubs, one solid wheel pinning the White Coat.
""

"..."
These words caused both the White Coat and the person in scrubs to change their expressions simultaneously.
They only knew that signing for takeout wouldn’t necessarily result in death, but they weren’t sure if outsiders present would also be affected.
"If there’s no problem, I’ll let him sign for the takeout then."
Liu Zheng took out a food box from the Legendary Takeout Box.
"Wait!"
The person in scrubs quickly called out to stop.
"We should wait downstairs instead. As long as we guard the exit, they won’t be able to escape."
He didn’t care whether the White Coat agreed and dragged him into the elevator.
"Clinical people really are more clever than the ones doing research."
Liu Zheng smiled.
"How do you know who’s into clinical work and who’s into research?"
Bai Tianshi asked with interest.
"Just a few words, and you can tell."
He replied.
"Seems like you’re quite the conversationalist."
"Pretty good, people say I’m easy to get along with."
Liu Zheng shrugged and said.
"Can you do me a favor then?" 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮
Bai Tianshi asked.
"What kind of favor?"
"Help me deliver this letter to Bencao Hall and have them pass it to my father. If it’s inconvenient for you, you can also give it to the postman. Here’s a service fee."
He took out a letter and several gold bars from his pocket.
"As expected from the youngest associate chief physician, carrying gold bars around."
Liu Zheng teased.
"It’s just to seek life within certain death, too bad it can’t be delivered."
Bai Tianshi looked grim.
Faced with outsiders, he didn’t need to pretend to be calm.
"They’re afraid to take it, which works out well for me."
Liu Zheng received the letter and the gold bar.
"Please. If I somehow survive, I will definitely repay you in the future."
Bai Tianshi said solemnly.
"You can repay me now. Since I’m here, you won’t die."
He said.
"You are..."
Bai Tianshi vaguely sensed something, but he wasn’t sure.
"Old San, the bond between you two isn’t that strong, huh? Your son is so close yet didn’t notice you."
Liu Zheng took out the Ancestor Bowl and teased.
Inside the Ancestor Bowl, Bai San’s soul waved excitedly at Bai Tianshi and bowed repeatedly to Liu Zheng.
"Dad!"
Bai Tianshi took the Ancestor Bowl, and with a thud, he knelt down.
"Whoa, are you kneeling to me or to your dad?"
Liu Zheng quickly stepped aside.
"Since you’ve come to save me, you’re my reborn parent; it’s only right to kneel to you."
Bai Tianshi hurriedly said.
"Not bad, not bad, your emotional intelligence is starting to resemble mine."
He praised.
"May I ask your distinguished name, Uncle?"
Bai Tianshi asked.
"My name is Liu Zheng. Forget about ’Uncle,’ let’s keep it simple; I call your dad ’Brother,’ so you can just call me ’Brother’ as well."
Liu Zheng waved his hand.
"Alright then, Brother Liu, can you tell me what’s going on with my dad?"
Bai Tianshi asked.
"Your dad pleaded with your Family Head to put his soul in this bowl to sense your location."
He replied.
"So you were invited by my dad to save me?"
Bai Tianshi asked.
"That’s right. Want to hear the whole process?"
Liu Zheng asked.
"If it’s convenient for you."
"There’s still plenty of time, so I’ll give you a brief rundown."
He looked at his phone and then recapped the story.
After listening, Bai Tianshi fully trusted Liu Zheng’s identity.
Such a thrilling and messy experience, there aren’t any storytellers in the hospital good enough to invent that.
"Then I’ll sign for the delivery now."
Bai Tianshi said proactively.
"No rush, wait until we can escape first."
Liu Zheng shook his head.
Signing for the delivery means losing the Legendary Armor bonus.
After swapping for the Artificial Body, the Legendary Armor’s attribute bonus wasn’t as important, but the real damage bonus was still indispensable.
Based on previous experience, Bai Tianshi couldn’t leave the hospital before signing the delivery, but at least he could reach the hospital’s edge.
"By the way, have you seen a manhole cover near a fire hydrant?"
He asked.
"A manhole cover near a fire hydrant?"
Bai Tianshi racked his brains, and quickly recalled something.
"I remembered, there’s a fire hydrant next to the VIP inpatient department. Sometimes I’d smoke and chat there with some colleagues, but I don’t quite remember if there’s a manhole cover."
He said.
"Then let’s go take a look."
Liu Zheng said.
Whether there’s fruit or not, swing a stick regardless.
"Alright. But, those two directors are still guarding down there."
Bai Tianshi hesitated.
"Don’t worry, they’ll let us pass. Oh, here, take this."
He handed the exhausted "Five Directions Plague God Tablet" to Bai Tianshi.
The latter took the tablet, and the divine pattern on it immediately became colorful again.
"Is this the ’Five Directions Plague God Tablet’ from the Family Head?"
This tablet was usually kept in the ancestral hall, Bai Tianshi had seen it while paying tribute to ancestors.
"That’s right. I don’t need it temporarily, so you can use it for protection."
Liu Zheng said.
"Thank you, Brother Liu. Then you take this."
Bai Tianshi took off the black four-leaf clover necklace from his neck and handed it to him.
Upon closer inspection, the black color on the necklace was clearly oxidized blood.
Liu Zheng took the necklace, and its description popped up.
"Name: Black Four-leaf Clover Necklace"
"Type: Equipment"
"Quality: Excellent"
"Effect One: Players will randomly acquire a disease, which will lead to another random disease once cured."
"Effect Two: Reduces the severity of acquired diseases. If a disease is severe enough to be fatal, the item will automatically destroy itself and counteract the disease (effective only for diseases acquired after equipping this item)."
"Note: Never get seriously ill, always have minor ailments; hospitalization is just for fun~"
"Can be taken out of the instance: Yes"
