I opened a clinic in the Abyss World

Anderson looked at Diana thoughtfully.

Jenny's expression was somewhat complicated. Seeing Charlotte and Diana's close relationship for the first time, she was furious from the perspective of Elizabeth's best friend, wishing she could kill the two scoundrels.

But as their relationship deepened, she could no longer view it as simply as she had at the beginning.

Charlotte, who was rejected and banished from Calvart three years ago because of her worthless nature, regained her footing in the abyss with the help of Diana, and rose again in a shocking manner, stunning everyone. Diana was undoubtedly the woman behind her.

He silently supported Charlotte during her most desperate and vulnerable time, and can be considered Charlotte's benefactor in her resurgence.

If Charlotte were to turn around and go back to Elizabeth, who is now at the height of her power, then he would be a complete and utter scumbag.

Elizabeth, however, still couldn't forget him, and even worked hard to cultivate with the goal of clearing his name, just to become a divine knight who could change the rules.

She has just broken through to the Star Knight level, while Charlotte has been exonerated by Lord Anderson and pardoned from the expulsion list.

Charlotte and Diana are now exchanging glances and it seems that feelings have begun to blossom between them. How will Elizabeth react when she finds out?

She... she shouldn't be the kind of woman who could accept Charlotte marrying two wives, right?

The staff at the clinic looked at Charlotte and Diana with expressions of blessing, thinking they were a perfect match.

Roland looked at the two of them with a smile on his lips; he also felt that there was something going on between them.

  

Charlotte turned to the staff at the clinic and smiled, saying, "Secondly, I would like to thank my employees and students who have been with me all this time. Thank you for your trust and support. I hope we can continue to work hard to create a better Abyss Clinic and provide better treatment for our patients."

"We'll do our best!"

Led by Vivian, everyone shouted in unison.

This drew prolonged applause from the crowd.

Every smile and applause from the patients is genuine, because these lovely people are changing the abyss and changing the world.

Charlotte finished her opening speech, and then, under the guidance of the emcee, she and the guests who came to offer their congratulations cut the ribbon, officially announcing the opening of the Abyss Medical Clinic.

The deafening sound of gongs and drums echoed deep into the abyss.

Chiefs Dirk and Joseph rushed over to present Charlotte with a congratulatory gift, and only then did they manage to exchange a few words with Anderson, though they were quite excited.

Although Abyss and Kalva are very close, the difference in their strength is too great, and it is almost impossible for Abyss to see Anderson on a regular basis.

Anderson looked at Joseph and said, "Lord Joseph, your Abyss did a great job this Red Moon Night, zero casualties, a miraculous record."

Joseph smiled and said, "This is all thanks to Dr. Charlotte. If he hadn't brought back nettle seedlings and suggested that we plant them on the outskirts of the abyss, we wouldn't have been able to achieve such a miracle of zero casualties."

Anderson nodded slightly; the nettle seedlings from the abyss were indeed brought back by Charlotte.

"I heard that Kalva suffered heavy casualties on both of those nights of the Red Moon," Dirk casually remarked.

Anderson's face immediately darkened. This guy really knew how to bring up the most sensitive topics. Just seeing him made him angry, and hearing that he was Diana's father only fueled his anger.

Dirk immediately realized that his words were somewhat inappropriate, but seeing Anderson's dark face, he dared not make amends, fearing that he might say something wrong and anger the other party again, which would make things even more awkward.

The opening ceremony officially ended, the performance team left in order, and the movable platform was also pushed away.

Zoe began to maintain order, having patients and customers who came to buy medicine line up separately. Customers who came to buy medicine entered the medicine trading hall directly according to their queues, and she began to issue number tags to patients.

After seeing all the patients who had accumulated over the past few days yesterday, the number of patients queuing up today has decreased.

Charlotte insisted that Vivian and Lina begin seeing patients first, while he would first receive the distinguished guests who had come to offer their congratulations.

Lord Karva, Lord Abyss... these are all important guests, it's not appropriate to leave them standing here.

"It's a rare treat to be ashore, what are your plans?" Charlotte asked with a smile, first finding Louise, who was happily eating a fruit platter nearby.

Louise shook her head: "I'll do whatever you say."

Charlotte thought for a moment and said, "The Abyss is a small place with not much to do. Let's stay here tonight, and I'll take you to Calva tomorrow."

"Great! I've always wanted to go to Calva." Louise nodded, then whispered in Charlotte's ear, "Isn't the shepherd in Calva too? We can ask him to come out for drinks and have him treat us."

"Is it alright to meet so casually? Don't we need to maintain a bit of mystery?" Charlotte hesitated. He already knew that the shepherd was in Calva, but since they had never had any interaction, he had never thought of meeting him.

"Can't we just meet up casually?" Louise asked, puzzled. "I've come all this way to Calva, shouldn't I meet up with my group members, strengthen our relationships, and maybe even get a free meal?"

Charlotte looked at her and asked curiously, "How many people have you met in the Red Moon group?"

“I’ve met everyone except the Light Chaser and the Gatekeeper, including the Judge.” Louise looked at him. “And you?”

"I've never seen a doorman, shepherd, merchant, or craftsman," Charlotte replied quietly.

"You've seen quite a few, haven't you?" Louis's eyes lit up, and he asked curiously, "Is the Light Chaser a voluptuous young woman?"

Charlotte looked at her with a slightly strange expression: "Who told you that?"

"I guessed."

"Then you really guessed wrong. She's a very aloof woman, the kind of girl who's young and innocent, and has nothing to do with a voluptuous married woman."

"Oh...that's not what I expected." Louise looked disappointed.

"Why do you have this misconception?" Charlotte asked, looking at her with a puzzled expression.

"Hehe, I was just guessing." Louise grinned.

Charlotte nodded: "Okay, then sit for a while. I still have to see patients later. I'll have Diana arrange for you to take a trip to the Abyss, so it won't be a wasted trip."

Louise smiled and nodded: "You go ahead with your work, I'm very outgoing, don't worry, you won't be bored."

Charlotte then walked toward Roland.

"You don't need to entertain me. We can have drinks together when we have time. I'm also getting ready to head back. There are still two hundred patients waiting in line at the clinic," Roland said with a smile.

"Good bro." Charlotte patted him on the shoulder and then walked over to Billy and Jenny.

"I've consulted someone about auspicious days, and tomorrow is better than today, so the pharmaceutical trading center opens tomorrow. Do you want to come?" Jenny asked him directly.

"So soon?" Charlotte was a little surprised, but immediately nodded: "Of course I have to go."

"The hype has been great lately. The Abyss Medical Clinic's reputation for potions has already spread throughout the Adventurers' Guild in Kalva. I reckon there will be quite a few adventurers coming to join the fun tomorrow. Some of the potions we stockpiled have been used for sponsorship. Here's the new order. Can you deliver them to me before the opening tomorrow?"

Charlotte took the order form from Jenny: one thousand bottles of each of the following four types of potions: Intermediate First Aid Kit, Golden Stamina Potion, Healing Potion, and Deep Blue Magic Potion.

The cost of the goods alone reached an astonishing 3.36 million copper coins, and that was after a 30% discount on the purchase price.

Charlotte quickly calculated that there was still some stock in the apothecary warehouse and a batch of stock in the clinic warehouse that she wouldn't need for the next two days. If it really wasn't enough, she could work overtime tonight to refine more, and she should be able to gather enough stock for the orders by tomorrow morning.

"No problem, I'll bring it with me when I come to the opening ceremony tomorrow morning." Charlotte nodded.

Jenny smiled and said, "Okay, I like suppliers like you who can meet all order requirements."

"I love distributors like you who spend money without batting an eye," Charlotte said with a smile.

Billy looked at Charlotte and said, "Dr. Charlotte, I'm here to expedite the second batch of insulin. The first batch of insulin was distributed very smoothly and has been almost completely sold out. Once patients are using it, their needs will be met. Therefore, the second batch of insulin must be arranged as soon as possible so that I can distribute it to other cities."

"Okay, once I'm done with these next few days, I'll get the second batch of insulin ready for you as soon as possible." Charlotte nodded, showing Billy even more respect.

He wholesaled the coins to Billy for 100 copper coins each, and Billy resold them at the original price of 100 copper coins each, purely as a form of charity.

Of course, as the vice president of the Calva Chamber of Commerce, he does have that much financial strength.

However, the fact that insulin was able to be promoted so smoothly shows that he must have used the channels and resources of the Calva Chamber of Commerce and was quite concerned about this matter.

Three hundred thousand vials of insulin, that's three million copper coins in payment.

These two, uncle and nephew, are truly his godsend.

"Once the insulin is ready, I will personally deliver it to your residence," Charlotte said with a smile. "I have now been released from my exile and can come and go as I please."

"Okay, then I'll wait for you at home." Billy nodded with a smile.

Charlotte then walked toward Adolf, Vivian's master, who had never been very friendly to her, always feeling that he was the one who forced Vivian to work and was taking up her precious cultivation time.

For example, this time when they went to the Elf City, they stayed for five or six days, which made him so angry that he was furious and almost came up with a knife to kill him.

Today, he looked quite handsome, and when he saw him approaching, there was a hint of a smile in his eyes, which made him wary. He couldn't figure out what the old man was up to, but he still smiled and stepped forward.

"Now that you've been exonerated and the deportation list has been removed, when have you decided to return to Kalva?" Adolf asked with a smile.

Anderson, who was sitting to the side, perked up his ears and looked at Charlotte as well.

"Look at my new clinic, it's only just opened. What would I do back in Calva?" Charlotte shook her head with a smile. "Do you think anyone in Calva would give me such a large plot of land and build a clinic like this for free? Even if they did, I wouldn't go."

Adolf said meaningfully, "Kalva is Kalva after all, not the Abyss. You are also a native of Kalva, you can't be unaware of this."

"Kalvar is indeed different from the Abyss. There are too many monsters and demons there. If you're not careful, you could end up in jail because of a bunch of idiots' false accusations, and maybe even hanged." Charlotte nodded in deep agreement. "I really don't understand. Why would I go back to Kalvar? To torture myself?"

Adolf looked at him intently, but could no longer offer any advice. Anyone who had experienced what had happened to him would probably feel disgusted and fearful of Kalva.

"The Kalva Medical School will restore your reputation as soon as possible. If you'd like, you can even go back and take a teaching position," Adolf said.

"What, you're planning to establish a surgical specialty at the Calva Medical School?" Charlotte asked, somewhat surprised.

Adolf nodded: "If you're willing to teach, I can go and discuss it with the dean when I get back."

"I don't want to," Charlotte shook her head. "After all, I was once a disgrace to Calva Medical School. Any medical student would be ashamed of me, so why should I go back and suffer?"

Adolf frowned slightly: "Surgery is, after all, a relatively new medical procedure. If it could be made more widespread, it would be a great benefit to increasing the number of doctors."

"Such a good thing probably won't come to the Kalva Medical School," Charlotte smiled. "I'm already recruiting students. The first batch of students are already capable of working independently, and the second batch has begun learning the basics. If a suitable opportunity arises later, I will establish the Abyss Medical School, a medical school that specializes in teaching surgical treatments. I will be the dean, and my students and I will be the teachers."

Adolf opened his mouth slightly, but quickly smiled again and nodded slightly, saying, "That's fine. If we really went to the Calva Medical School, there would probably be endless arguments, and we don't know when we'll be able to train a batch of usable students."

"Thank you for understanding." Charlotte nodded, acknowledging Adolf's flexibility.

He wasn't the kind of stubborn old scholar after all; otherwise, he wouldn't have made a special trip to Calva every day to teach Vivian.

Charlotte finally approached Anderson and smiled, saying, "Lord, may I have a word with you in private?"

Anderson immediately stood up and followed Charlotte into the council chamber of the side hall of the medical clinic.

The crowd watched the two figures from behind, their expressions varied, wondering what they would talk about.

Charlotte closed the door, shutting out the noise as well.

Anderson pulled out a chair and sat down.

Charlotte sat down opposite him.

"I have received your sincerity and I am very satisfied." Charlotte nodded slightly, took out a roll of blueprints from her spatial ring, and pushed it across the table: "These are the design blueprints for the nettle extract cannon, an important part of the nettle defense system. Given the size of Kalva, at least five thousand cannons are needed. If production capacity is insufficient, we can order some from Eisen Iron Fortress as a supplement."

There are four types of nettle seedlings in total. Three of them can be found on the outskirts of the abyss. You can send someone to collect them. The cactus nettle seedlings used to produce the extract are here. After cultivating them, you can extract the juice to use as ammunition for the extract cannon.

Anderson looked at the parchment scroll and ten saplings in front of him, a smile of admiration appearing on his face: "Among young people, there are very few who live as clearly and decisively as you."

"After all, most young people don't have my kind of experiences," Charlotte smiled. "If they could live a carefree and comfortable life, who would want to be so clear-headed?"

"We have the four types of saplings, but how should they be arranged more rationally?" Anderson looked at Charlotte; "You should know that Kalva doesn't have as many plant-based magicians as the Elf City. I'd like to hear your suggestions."

"My first suggestion is to send someone with a large sum of money to the Elf City before going to other cities, and ask High Priest Benjamin to hire a group of plant-type mages. The Ironwood Nettle Wall of the Elf City was undamaged during this Red Moon Night. This was the most massive project, so we only need to replenish the outer nettle. We don't need that many plant-type mages. As long as the price is right, we can definitely hire a group of plant-type mages with both strength and experience." Charlotte looked at Anderson: "Of course, someone may have already thought of this method and is on their way, so the sooner the better. Prepare plenty of money."

Anderson's eyes lit up upon hearing this. He had been worried about plant-type mages these past few days, but his focus was limited to how to find more plant-type mages in Kalva, and he hadn't thought about hiring them in the Elf City.

Charlotte has just returned from the Elf City, so she must know the situation there very well. And as she said, the Elf City has a surplus of plant-type mages, and as long as the price is right, they can definitely be hired, which can solve their immediate problem.

"That's a good suggestion. I'll send someone to the Elf City to recruit plant-type mages as soon as I get back," Anderson nodded.

Charlotte continued, "My second suggestion is not to follow the Elf City's example and use most of their plant-based mages to build a 500-meter-high ironwood nettle wall. Otherwise, it would take the entire city two months to build just that wall. The catalysis of ironwood nettle slows down over time. Setting the height of the ironwood nettle wall at 150 meters will reduce the workload to one-fifth. The remaining plant-based mages can be used to plant a 40-kilometer-long nettle protective forest around Kalva, and within three kilometers outside the city wall, plant a 100-meter-high nettle ironwood forest as a last line of defense. This will be more effective than simply raising the city wall."

Kalva faces the sea, making its situation somewhat unique. I suggest establishing a seawater barrier three kilometers outward along the coastline using magical arrays, restricting only the flow of seawater to form a moat. On the eve of the Red Moon, inject a large amount of extract into the lake, concentrating the seawater to a level that will awaken the demonized sea beasts, thus effectively blocking the sea beast tide.

Anderson nodded repeatedly, feeling a sense of sudden enlightenment.

Kalva has indeed obtained several types of nettle grass from the outer edge of the abyss and has cultivated a large number of seedlings. However, the city lord's think tank has no idea how to arrange the planting and how to better block the beast tide.

Charlotte's words earlier were like a wake-up call, making him understand what a comprehensive nettle defense system truly meant.
