As time went by, the sky outside had completely darkened, and the summer evening still carried a faint trace of noise.

While Yin Hongxiao was eating her fried rice with a restrained air, Bai Chen looked at the secret manual that she had taken out.

"Internal energy gauge..."

Looking at the introduction in the booklet in his hand, Bai Chen stroked his chin, looking thoughtful.

In the player or chosen one system, item quality ranges from low to high as common, rare, elite, and perfect. If the other party can offer a perfect item, it can be considered a great show of sincerity.

His basic attributes were already terrible, but this "Orchid Heart in the Empty Valley" technique perfectly solved his shortcomings. Not only that, it also has a certain growth potential.

Keep in mind that players only gain one free attribute point for each level they gain, and the bonuses from this are already quite substantial.

As for the rest...

Turning his head, Bai Chen looked at the stack of gleaming gold bricks piled up beside the bed. Based on the current gold price, these gold bricks were estimated to be worth at least tens of millions.

—And this is only a small part of what the other party has in their inventory.

His only headache now is figuring out how to dispose of all those gold bars...

"So, what do you think, young master?"

Just as Bai was deep in thought, Yin Hongxiao's voice rang out from the side.

The girl was clearly starving; she ate the entire bowl of fried rice, leaving not a single grain.

"Yes, it's a fair transaction."

Bai Chen glanced at the other person, opened the food delivery app, and handed over his phone.

"Whatever you want to eat, just pick it up here, and someone will deliver it to you shortly. As for the poison in your body... give me half a month."

Although the money was in place, converting it into cash required methods. Not to mention that many of the poisons that Yin Hongxiao was ingested were specially prepared for the chosen one, at least for now, he had no time to focus on that aspect.

The player was only given 72 hours to prepare for the newbie assessment, and he has already slept for almost a day. He should deal with the immediate issues first, and then he can deal with this matter later.

Compared to her previous crippled attributes, she finally looks a bit better after receiving the bonus from the [Empty Valley Orchid Heart Technique]... although the negative sanity value still looks a bit strange.

Bai Chen had also asked Yin Hongxiao about the matter of [Rationality], but apart from learning that it was a special attribute that could not be enhanced with free attribute points, he did not get any useful information. He only knew that the rationality of an ordinary person was around 20 points.

Since he couldn't figure it out for the time being, and unwilling to expose his abnormal attributes, Bai Chen was too lazy to spend more time on such matters. While waiting for the takeout to arrive, under Yin Hongxiao's guidance, he began to study his newly acquired internal energy bar.

To him, this thing was somewhat like an attribute amplifier. Under the premise of calling internal energy, his physical qualities in all aspects would be greatly improved, and he could even make an effect like slapping a table with a palm and leaving a clear palm print on the table, like in martial arts novels... It's just that the consumption is a bit high.

Experiments have shown that fifty points of internal energy can increase one of his three attributes—physical constitution, strength, and agility—by five points within one minute. Although this number may seem like a small increase, the actual effect is extremely amazing.

This kind of boost can exceed the current attribute limit. With his current attributes, once he uses internal energy to enhance himself, he is basically equivalent to a mini-superman for one minute.

However, while internal energy is useful, it is extremely troublesome to recover. Under normal circumstances, it takes a full five minutes to recover even a little bit of internal energy. Even after Yin Hongxiao taught him a breathing technique and guided him through the basics, it still took a minute to recover even a little bit of internal energy.

After all, he wasn't someone who had practiced martial arts since childhood, and his meridians had long been solidified and stiffened. To be able to reach this level, in Yin Hongxiao's words, was already considered to have some talent.

For others, this limitation might mean they can only use internal energy as a means of surprise, but for Bai Chen, who possesses the [Pharmacopoeia], it doesn't matter.

His talent is so extraordinary that it is hard for ordinary people to imagine. With no shortage of funds, developing a medicine that can quickly restore internal energy is just a piece of cake for him.

—In fact, he originally planned to sell medicine if Yin Hongxiao had no money.

Just as Bai Chen was pondering whether he should try to start preparing medicines tomorrow, there was a sudden knock on the door.

After a slight pause, Bai Chen looked at his phone. After a brief moment of thought, he first looked at Yin Hongxiao, signaling her to put the gold away for the time being, and then went to the door and opened it.

"Hello, your takeout has been delivered. Remember to leave a comment... um? Bai Chen?"

Before the deliveryman at the door could finish his sentence, he paused for a moment when he saw Bai Chen, and then immediately swore.

"Holy crap, where the hell have you been?! You haven't come all day, and you haven't replied to my messages. I thought you'd accidentally overworked yourself to death, and I was even planning to find a medium to burn incense for you."

"Well……"

Looking at the excited Su Qun in front of him, Bai Chen quickly found the memories about the other person in his mind.

Su Qun, a classmate of his who worked part-time delivering food, was generous and loyal. However, unlike him, Su Qun came from a well-off family and was delivering food purely to experience life.

...Also, he's a goofball.
