Chapter 84 Slipped Away



Mrs. Eddy offered to cover the treatment station's meals, and Eryi welcomed it. She offered three meals a day for eight silver coins, with free use of the kitchen.

In reality, Eryi couldn't eat much, mainly because Fluffy was such a glutton. Since he could earn his own money with his magic, there was no way he could withhold his food.

Since Mrs. Eddy started working at the Healing Inn, she had canceled her private kitchen lunch service, leaving only dinner. Every morning, she would purchase the appropriate ingredients, transport them to the Healing Inn by donkey cart, and then prepare the ingredients for the evening private kitchen in the Healing Inn's kitchen.

"Priest, is the trash can in the kitchen connected to some mysterious place? It disappears every half a day. I thought you had Judy clean it every day, but she said no."

"This is automatic cleaning magic, a type of life magic." This time Eryi was not talking nonsense. She was reading the kitchen instructions on the building panel.

"That's great. I really want to install one at home." Mrs. Eddie did not ask where to find a magician to order this kind of magic. She believed that the price would be beyond her ability to afford.

Before I knew it, I had been in the magic plane for some time. I have to say that the speed of making money in the doomsday plane was very fast, and the system was upgraded again in the blink of an eye.

[Upgrade to a Level 6 Plane Healing Station? ]

【yes】

Increase the basic status recovery speed in the post station by 10%

Using healing skills in the post station will increase the skill effect by 10%

The system management range has been expanded to 50 meters around the treatment station.

The Mana Energy Storage Orb can be converted and developed into a superpowered version. Once successfully developed, it can be loaded onto the Doomsday Plane. Does this conversion cost 50,000 Energy Points? After successful development, each one can be purchased for 50,000 Energy Points. Note: The converted version will have reduced functionality, and the Doomsday Plane is a C-level plane. Side effects are highly likely to occur after conversion, so please choose carefully based on your needs.

"Zero Eight, do you know approximately how much it will weaken?"

[Replying to the host, this involves the original energy of this plane, and I can't answer it before the conversion. However, if something from a C-level plane is converted to a B-level plane, the function will definitely be significantly different.]

"They're both C-level planes, so why isn't there a notification to convert to the Wulin plane?"

[Replying to the host, the system has determined that no transformation is necessary.]

Eryi calculated the monetary value of the martial arts world. Indeed, even if he made something to replenish internal strength, he didn't know how much he could sell it for to make a profit.

Eryi hovered her hand over [Confirm R&D], hesitating for a moment. Unlike magic points, power values ​​don't display a value on the personal dashboard. Yu Xin was the only exception; after signing an employment contract with the Healing Station, her power value indicator appeared on her profile. Eryi, not possessing any powers herself, wasn't aware of the connection between power release and power values.

She opened the employee panel from her personal panel and checked Yu Xin's personal information.

Yu Xin [Level 5 Wood Psychic/Level 3 Healing Psychic]

HP 100%, Fatigue 58/100, Power 98/450

As a dual-system psychic, Yu Xin's total psychic value is higher than that of ordinary people.

Eryi opened his phone and sent a message to Yu Xin.

Eryi: If you release your wood-type ability at full power without interruption, how long can you use it?

Yu Xin: Are you doing some kind of statistical analysis? What specific information do you need? Combat and cultivation are different.

Eryi: Please give a brief description.

Yu Xin: If I'm in combat, I rarely use my superpowers at full capacity. By continuously moving and controlling my output, I can use them for four hours without interruption. If I use them continuously at full capacity, I can last about an hour. I can cultivate about 10 hectares of land.

Eryi: Okay, what about the healing ability?

Yu Xin: Because the only job I'm needed for right now at the Healing Station is reattaching severed limbs. My healing ability can sustain me for five consecutive limb reattaches, after which I need to rest for three hours to fully recover. Recently, healing psychics in other safe zones have discovered a way to use healing devices in combat. I tried it out, and it seems combat requires more energy than healing.

Eryi:ok.jpg

After chatting for a while, Eryi closed the chat app. After some thought, he asked the employee in charge of paperwork in the Doomsday Plane to do a market survey: If your power points could be sold or replenished, how much would you be willing to sell/replenish them for?

Putting the phone down, she continued to check the system messages.

Conditions for upgrading to a Level 7 Plane Healing Station:

Turnover:1500000/1500000

Number of patients treated: 20,000/20,000

Use the prayer room to gain 20,000 energy: 3860/20,000.

Upgrading to a Level 7 Plane Healing Station will give you special rewards: You can obtain the item [Skill Spreader]

[Skill Dispenser: A mobile, self-service version of the Skill Accumulator, with a maximum flight range of 5,000 km from the Healing Station. It can be invisible, and each device can only be loaded with one skill. Available in the store after activation, it requires 300,000 energy points. Skill storage capacity: 10,000 per device. It is only usable in the host's original plane.]

Eryi's eyes lit up, he must get this.

After Mrs. Eddie canceled her lunch business, the news of her frequent appearances at the healing station across from the Adventurer's Guild spread among the adventurers. They then realized that the culprit who caused them to lose their delicious lunch was so close to them.

At lunch time, a few adventurers smelled the aroma and sneaked over, just in time to see everyone having lunch.

"Master Priest, it's not good for you to monopolize Madam Eddie." The archer took a look at the bread in his hand and suddenly felt that the bread was not fragrant.

The young assassin put on a pitiful expression, pretending to get Eryi to look at him more. "Every time our team prepares to go on a big mission, we always spend silver coins to treat ourselves to a meal at Madam Eddy's the night before or at noon. Today at noon, I went to the restaurant to make a reservation for lunch tomorrow, but it was closed."

"I was going to get some of Mrs. Eddie's special takeout today, but now they're all gone," the swordsman hinted subtly, following behind his teammate.

"Then you're really out of luck! Mrs. Eddy's garlic bread is delicious with the clam chowder." Eryi remained unmoved as everyone watched. She spooned the clams onto the bread and devoured it in one gulp. She decided that after finishing her meal, she would use the laws of space to create a dining room behind the kitchen so they wouldn't have to watch her eat.

The adventurers all swallowed their saliva as they watched, and finally gave up their self-torture and went into the prayer room to sit and eat some dry bread.

"Which bastard introduced Mrs. Eddie to the High Priest?" The archer waved the loaf of bread in anger. He still remembered the rules of the prayer room, so even though he moved loudly, he kept his voice very low.

"Isn't it you?" The trap master beside him had lost his appetite and began to check whether his equipment was damaged.

“…” The archer held the bread and fell into deep thought.

The swordsman ignored his arguing teammates and suddenly stood up, leaning against the doorway of the prayer room to look out. The kitchen of the healing station was not far away, and Mrs. Eddy was pickling something inside.

Eryi clicked on the building page, preparing to clear out a space for a restaurant. He saw Mrs. Eddy apologetically offering some pickled cucumber slices to the adventurers as a way of comforting them for not being open for lunch.

"We miss your jam-filled bread. It's easy to carry, and you can just toast it over the fire at night for a different flavor." The swordsman said regretfully.

"If you need it, I can make some and you can pick it up from my shop tomorrow morning." Mrs. Eddy replied politely.

Eryi remembered the upgrade mission at the Healing Station and walked over to Mrs. Eddie. The swordsman glanced at her expression and chose to return to the prayer room to find his teammates.

"Mrs. Eddie, do you think my work here is busy?" Eryi picked up a piece of pickled cucumber and asked casually.

"It's an honor to work for you. Your kitchen makes work so easy and enjoyable." Mrs. Eddy had her staff clear the dishes and bowed gracefully. "I hope you won't be upset by the adventurers' words. This is my personal choice. I will find a way to appease them."

"Will the income be less than before?" Eryi asked tentatively. She had gone to buy ingredients before, and judging by the food she had eaten in the past few days, Mrs. Eddy had spent almost all her money on ingredients and didn't make much money.

Mrs. Eddy smiled and shook her head, "I've got what I need."

Eryi glanced at the prayer room door out of the corner of his eye and saw half a shoe peeking out from behind it. "No, they're right. I shouldn't monopolize you."

Mrs. Eddy frowned slightly after hearing Eryi's words, wanting to say something. She hadn't used this kitchen enough, and she didn't want to lose her job just yet. Then, following Eryi's gaze, she also noticed the shoes behind the prayer room door.

"Ahem." Mrs. Eddy felt that this kind of thing shouldn't be heard by the adventurers. "Shall we talk in the kitchen?"

"It's okay." Eryi saw that the shoes behind the prayer room door had been retracted, but a few strands of hair were floating by the door frame. "If you don't mind, you can use the kitchen here to cook for the adventurers. If they don't mind, they can eat in the prayer room."

"Really?" The owner of the shoes and hair ran out of the prayer room. "That's great!"

"May your gods bless you." They did not forget to perform a standard etiquette to Eryi.

"So, can we start ordering for tomorrow?" The adventurers gathered around Mrs. Eddy. This was a pleasant surprise.

Originally, Mrs. Eddy's private restaurant was located in a residential building, a half-hour walk from the Adventurer's Guild. It required a visit once for reservations and another for meals, which was somewhat inconvenient. But now, Mrs. Eddy was directly across from the Adventurer's Guild all day, making reservations easy. Breakfast and lunch, with the High Priest's permission, could be served in the prayer room.

As for the dining table? Adventurers never cared about that. They could just sit on the floor.

Eryi looked at his energy level, which steadily rose every lunchtime, and held his chin in his hand. "How about I use the prayer room as a base to open a shopping mall?"

[Host, if you continue to play by the rules, the prayer room function will be banned.]

"How do you make your judgment?" Why is it okay to eat, stay overnight and rest, but not to open a shopping mall?

[The prayer room will periodically detect the gratitude value provided by the creatures inside. This is a hidden value.]

"That……"

[Opening an inn isn't an option either, forget it. This feature is a starting benefit. If you play around with it too much, you'll end up only gaining energy when you recite prayers.]

“…”

She decided to continue reselling magic. This business had been booming recently, and she couldn't collect enough to sell. As soon as it was put on the shelves, it was sold out. She was considering expanding the scope of her magic acquisition.

"Why are there so many birds these days?" As the magic apprentice walked out of the wizard tower, a black feather floated down from above his head.

"Ugh, bird shit." He raised his wand, ready to give them a big blast.

A hat-wearing head opened the window above the wizard's tower, stuck its head out and shouted at him, "Remember to take the letter back after the fight, otherwise the instructor will put you in the confinement room." After saying that, it shrank back and closed the window.

A research project of the magician Amy, which had been stagnant, suddenly began to progress rapidly. The results he delivered surprised his friends, who all sent him messages using various birds on hand.

——How do you deal with this output stability issue?

——Last time you used the magic core, you blew up the entire layer.

—You bought out all the medicine at Clive's Pharmacy? Do you know how much I need medicine for the project I'm working on? Why didn't you send me some after reading the letter?

——I’ll give you 1 copper coin and give me a copy of the scroll you made.

—I heard you even tried adding holy elements. How did you trick those stubborn asses into serving you? Magic coins, right? How much did you give them?

Amy tore up the letter in her hand and threw it into the trash can: "You want me to tell you? Dream on!"

Finally, he accurately found a familiar signature from the pile of letters and pulled the letter out.

Dear Amy, I wonder if I would have the honor to have dinner with you tonight? This is a certain female magician who was very popular in school during his apprenticeship.

Amy quickly took the coordinates from the letter and replied:

You finally showed up. When will you return the one hundred magic coins and three level 4 magic scrolls you owe me?

The Baroness was also eagerly waiting for a reply. She asked her servants to send letters and flowers to Eryi many times, but received no response.

"Ma'am, maybe she just doesn't know she needs to reply."

The Baroness took a sip of her tea and gently placed the cup on the saucer. "Have you found everything I asked you to check?"

"I can't find everything." The butler took out a notebook and read from it. "He first appeared in Dragon Gorge Forest. This is recorded in the Adventurer's Guild. Everything else is unclear."

The Baroness folded her gloved hands over her abdomen, tapping a finger gently to the beat.

"No wonder. It's normal for new gods and new priests not to understand these things."

"Maybe she is a real divine guide?" The butler watched the Baroness's movements out of the corner of his eye.

"Wait a little longer."

"As long as she is a true divine guide, I am ready to offer everything I have to make Maria's name known throughout the empire."
