Chapter 148 The Dust Settles
Of course, what happened in the Diamond Islands has nothing to do with Chen Qing. Instead of worrying about others, he should be more concerned about his own safety.
Having lost all five senses, Chen Qing is now like a child carrying gold in the middle of a bustling city—extremely dangerous.
However, Chen Qing's current situation means that not just anyone can kill her, not to mention those Fengying Jadeite.
The mechanical creature teams that accompanied Chen Qing alone—the Explosive Hunter Rabbit, the Water-Covered Healing Butterfly, the Super Shield Whale, and the Mini Rabbit Muscle Turtle—were enough to give the attackers a run for their money.
To kill Chen Qing, one would need to be at least at the level of Gao Yue and the others.
Don't underestimate Gao Yue's team. Although their strength is not top-notch, the team is composed entirely of people with extraordinary abilities.
Moreover, these extraordinary abilities are all extremely powerful and useful.
Among the survivors, they definitely belong to the top tier.
If they are determined to deal with Chen Qing, he might not be able to escape now.
The mechanical creations under Chen Qing's command are very powerful, but unfortunately they lack intelligence.
The most important thing for Chen Qing now is to leave the Gem Sea safely and find a doctor who can help her restore her five senses.
Being blind, deaf, and mute means losing the sense of taste and smell, which can easily lead to a loss of time and cause people to break down and go crazy.
However, Chen Qing remained relatively calm. Given the previous situation, he was already lucky to have survived.
With the Wind Shadow Emerald traveling at full speed, Chen Qing and his mechanical creations quickly arrived near the Sapphire Island waters.
She did not go to the island immediately, but instead let Windshadow Emerald continue to linger in the nearby waters.
Time ticked by, and as the countdown to the leaderboard reached zero drew ever closer, all the survivors participating in this carnival became increasingly tense.
With so many people dead, the final reward can't possibly go to the native inhabitants of this world, can it?
For this event, too many survivors died at the hands of outsiders, sea monsters, and even their own teammates.
A single purple-quality gemstone is enough to turn former best friends against each other, causing them to stab each other in the back.
The lower the survivor's level, the more likely they are to betray their allegiance for even a small amount of interest.
Everyone is both prey and hunter.
Chen Qing's foundation was too high, so she didn't have the opportunity to participate in this hunting frenzy.
Her opponents are basically at the level of Demon Dragon plus White Fairy Yuan Fei.
The competition between them is complicated by too many interests, and in many cases, a change in one thing can have far-reaching consequences.
The competition among ordinary survivors is brutally honest, more like that of wild beasts.
Those so-called superiors are just wearing an extra layer of human skin compared to them.
With so many lives lost, the survivors naturally don't want to see the indigenous people emerge as the final victors.
No matter what, Chen Qing is still a survivor from the same world as them.
The closer the countdown ends, the fiercer the competition becomes between the top-ranked survivor and the original inhabitants.
Everyone's points are soaring, including Chen Qing's.
However, Chen Qing himself seemed quite relaxed.
She was, after all, a doctor with C-level medical skills and D-level pharmaceutical abilities, so she had some knowledge.
Until she could find a suitable doctor, she had no choice but to try anything, even if it seemed hopeless.
Although she can't see or hear anything, her senses are still there. With the Water-Covered Healing Butterfly and the Explosive Battle Rabbit assisting her, Chen Qing can make some attempts.
While all the survivors and natives were preoccupied with the fluctuating leaderboard rankings, Chen Qing was conducting her 68th attempt at drug production.
Making potions was not difficult for Chen Qing; she was already used to this kind of meticulous work.
The most difficult part for Chen Qing was diagnosing her illness.
She only had a vague understanding of her own problems.
Chen Qing knew that her loss of all five senses was definitely not because of the explosion, but more likely because of the Sword Dance Mantis.
It must have done something.
Given the changes in the Mantis at that time, all the medicines Chen Qing prepared were aimed at purification.
In fact, if Chen Qing dared to try, Zuo Yun's extraordinary abilities would be more suitable for dealing with her current situation.
But Chen Qing couldn't gamble on that possibility.
At the temporary base in the Dragon Kingdom, even if both sides set off at the same time, they would meet close to the end of the rankings.
Who dares to say they wouldn't be tempted by the rewards on the leaderboard?
As long as Chen Qing is killed, those rewards can be easily obtained, and no one will know.
Fortunately, Chen Qing had improved his medical and pharmaceutical skills beforehand, especially his medical skills.
Furthermore, Chen Qing discovered that the sailors' odd jobs and the chefs' nutritional planning could both assist the doctor's medical skills and pharmaceutical skills.
With the assistance of Water-Covered Healing Butterfly and Explosive Battle Rabbit, Chen Qing, despite losing all five senses, did not encounter any difficulties.
Her life was not affected.
Using his existing knowledge, Chen Qing quickly assessed his current situation.
She was infected.
The Scyther was "contaminated" by something, and she was "infected" by the "contaminated" Scyther.
If nothing unexpected happens, both Molong Shangjia and Bai Xianyuanfei will be like her.
There probably won't be any problems with Shangjia, but it's hard to say about Yuanfei.
The contaminant was specifically designed for the mechanical creation, Scizor. That's why the contaminant manifests in their bodies the way it does now after Scizor infected them.
Different individuals, different behaviors.
Once you know the problem, it becomes easier to solve it.
Chen Qing immediately asked Qingxian to help her collect some potion materials, while she herself was also buying up a lot of items on the trading channel.
Even knowing where the problem lies, Chen Qing still needs to make multiple attempts to formulate a suitable antidote because of his unfamiliarity with medicine and pharmaceuticals.
Meanwhile, the competition on the leaderboard became even fiercer, with less than half an hour left before the end.
The two pirate crews, Demon Dragon and White Fairy, simultaneously ceased their competition for the rankings, and news spread that the two crews had gone to war.
They turned the Diamond Islands into a battlefield, causing chaos and upheaval.
With these two strong competitors gone, only Chen Qing remained at the front.
Most of the survivor factions on the leaderboard are frantically searching for Chen Qing, wanting to kill her.
Some survivor factions are quietly trying to catch up, but no matter what, they can't match Chen Qing's rate of score increase.
With the rankings about to end, the mechanical creations that Chen Qing had eliminated, including the Wind Shadow Jade, began a suicidal hunt!
All the extraordinary treasure-hunting fish that are targeted by them will only have one fate: death.
Chen Qing himself had obtained a large number of points from the deep-sea aquaculture farm, where there were many golden gems.
Now, with these mechanical creations recklessly accumulating points, how could the survivor forces possibly compare to Chen Qing's?
The countdown ended, and the name at the top of the leaderboard was none other than Chen Qing!
