"...Alright, that's enough for now."

Looking at the red-haired girl covered with a blanket on the bed, Bai Chen reached out and wiped the sweat from his forehead, letting out a breath.

Although he brought the person back, it took him a lot of effort to treat the injuries on the person's body. In addition to the dozens of kinds of strange poisons on the person's body, there were also many external injuries.

The most serious injury even revealed the white bone, so he had to go out again to a nearby pharmacy to buy some medicine and bandages.

It took him several hours to finish cleaning up the other person's injuries and bloodstains. However, since he didn't have any clean clothes for the other person, he could only leave it as it was.

Incidentally, perhaps because he is a martial artist, he has a surprisingly good build... it's just a pity he's too small.

As for the dozens of strange poisons still ravaging the other party's body, although he had the [Pharmacopoeia] and could prescribe the right medicine for each one, firstly, he lacked the materials to refine the antidote and needed to spend a lot of money to buy them, and secondly... he never did business at a loss.

"...Let's talk to her again when she wakes up."

After glancing at the girl who was still unconscious, Bai Chen sat down at the table and began studying his player panel.

Although he still couldn't quite figure out how he obtained his player status, he had roughly deduced something based on the previous situation.

Since the other party was able to reveal the talent [Pharmacopoeia], it's not surprising that they could also reveal player qualifications... probably.

Like most online game interfaces, his player system interface was generally similar, with all sorts of functions including [Player Information], [Attribute Bar], [Skill Bar], [Talent Bar], [Inventory], [System Shop], [Friends], etc., which made him dizzy for a moment.

However, perhaps because he had not yet passed the novice assessment task, many interfaces were grayed out, with only a few items available for viewing.

Of all these, what he was most curious about was undoubtedly his own talent—[Retrogression].

------------

[Soul Talent: Retrospection]

[Current Status: Potential for Growth]

【Effect ①: Containment. For things that have been understood and analyzed, or unclaimed objects that are about to disappear, they can be sealed and made into corresponding cards.】

【Effect ②: Encapsulation. Upon awakening this talent, a corresponding card album is automatically obtained. The card album can isolate external factors from affecting the cards contained within it.】

【Effect 3: Ownership. Cards can be called and released at any time. When the user's control over the cards is insufficient, the cards will automatically break and disappear.】

[Current number of cards that can be sealed: 2/10.]

[Note: This power originates from the essence of one's individual soul, possessing uniqueness and the potential for growth; it is one in a million.]

"A talent that can be developed...is one in a million?"

Looking at the panel in front of him, Bai Chen raised an eyebrow.

Based on this description, it seems that even players aren't guaranteed to awaken their talents. It appears the guy who obtained the [Pharmacopoeia] was quite gifted...

While pondering this in his mind, Bai Chen casually filled in "[Chen Bai]" in the player ID field for his still unnamed account.

His online name has always been this; he's used to it.

After doing this, Bai Chen opened the attribute panel. Like most online games, the player's individual physical attributes were all digitized and divided into seven categories: strength, constitution, agility, intelligence, perception, charm, and rationality.

Among these, the attribute points are based on the standard of a normal middle-aged male, with an average of five and a human limit of ten. Due to long-term malnutrition, his attributes are not considered very good.

Player ID: DustWhite

[Level: Lv 1 (0/100)]

【Strength: 3】

[Physical Fitness: 2]

[Agility: 3]

【Intelligence: 10】

【Perception: 7】

【Charm: 10】

[Sanity: -200]

"This attribute..."

Looking at the attribute panel in front of him, Bai Chen had a subtle expression on his face.

This attribute is extremely unbalanced, especially the first three main combat attributes, which are so low that they are not even at the average level.

The last three items looked a bit better, but the sanity score of -200 was something that really stumped him.

...Can reason be negative?

"What a pity, there's not much to talk to, and he only has a superficial understanding of everything... We can only wait for him to wake up."

Bai Chen glanced back at the red-haired girl on the bed and shook his head slightly.

While treating the other party's injuries, he used the [Pharmacopoeia] to examine the other party's condition. The dozens of strange poisons in the other party's body had one effect after another. Without his intervention, the other party would eventually become a puppet with self-awareness but completely unable to control its own actions, and would even be deprived of the ability to make decisions.

With this layer of protection, he didn't need to worry about the other party attacking him after waking up...

"Never mind, let's go to sleep first."

Bai Chen glanced at the sky outside, which was gradually brightening, yawned, and stood up from his chair.

He had been through so much that night, and even he felt exhausted. In addition, his physical condition was already terrible due to long-term sleep deprivation, so he naturally needed to rest as soon as possible.

But...

Looking at the red-haired girl who was still fast asleep and taking up most of his bed, Bai Chen thought for a moment and then pulled out a mat from under the bed... and then decisively carried the girl, along with the blanket, onto the mat.

"As expected, a soft bed is the most comfortable to sleep on..."

Lying in bed, Bai Chen looked on with a sense of感慨 (gǎnkǎi, a complex emotion encompassing feelings, thoughts, and reflection).

Because he was so tired, and because he had encountered so many unexpected things last night, Bai Chen slept very soundly.

When he opened his eyes again, it was already dark outside the window, and the room was dimly lit and eerily quiet.

After staring at the ceiling in bed for a while, Bai Chen belatedly remembered what had happened earlier.

"Tsk... So it wasn't a dream after all..."

With his hand pressed against his forehead, feeling his rumbling stomach, Bai Chen sat up from the bed.

Before he could even pick up his phone to check the time, he felt as if his foot had kicked something soft. After a slight pause, Bai Chen lowered his head.

Then, he happened to meet the gaze of a pair of cold, scarlet eyes in the darkness.

Holy crap!!

Because his memory was still a bit hazy from just waking up, Bai Chen was startled when he discovered there were other people in his room.
