After reaching level 30, the [Master-Apprentice] function that Gu Qiongsheng had longed for was finally unlocked.
The system shows that she can have up to 10 apprentices at the same time. Each apprentice can freely inherit two of her skills, but the skill level will always be one level lower than hers.
In other words, if Gu Qiongsheng has an [Extraordinary] skill, other disciples can only inherit [Rare] level at most, but as Gu Qiongsheng's ability improves, the skills they inherit can also be further improved.
“Only 10…”
Gu Qiongsheng looked at the system panel and muttered quietly, "More please! A thousand, ten thousand, I wouldn't think it's too much."
【……】
The system is unresponsive.
Gu Qiongsheng shook his head and sighed: "Well, 10 is 10."
Just make do with it.
In fact, this number is roughly in line with her expectations.
After all, in the game, a player cannot recruit unlimited disciples, 10 is already a lot.
But for the vast interstellar world, 10 seems too little.
But...compared to before when there was only Gu Qiongsheng, it's at least increased ten times!
Besides that, there is another problem.
“If I’m not happy with the apprentice I received, can I change it?”
With her gifted vision, Gu Qiongsheng can make a preliminary judgment on a person's character, but people always change. She cannot guarantee that the apprentices she accepts will always be people of noble character and will never betray her and the Dawn Legion, so she still needs some power to protect them.
Fortunately, the system also displays: [After reaching the maximum intimacy level within 7 days, the master-disciple relationship is officially established and can be terminated at any time. After termination, the master has the right to revoke the skills inherited by the apprentice.]
"Uh-huh?!"
Gu Qiongsheng was stunned.
She stared blankly at the system panel in front of her. After a moment, she suddenly raised the corners of her lips in surprise, and her eyes were shining brightly.
Having the right to take it back, doesn't that mean...
Is it also possible not to take it back?
If she doesn't take it back, then wouldn't she be able to train 10 outstanding therapists every 7 days?
Skill inheritance also saves the trouble of training from scratch.
10 people a week, 40 people a month, 480 people a year...
It’s much better than having only 10 people in total!
If the Dawning Legion is eventually established with a membership of 3,000, there will be one healer for every six people on average. By then, the Dawning Legion will surely become the legion with the lowest casualty rate in the entire galaxy!
Silently reciting the motto “A man should be content with what he has”, Gu Qiongsheng was full of confidence and began the task of recruiting disciples.
Of course, the first spot to be accepted as a disciple must be given to Dr. Zou, with whom we had an agreement in advance.
Moreover, during this period, Dr. Zou ran around, collecting lists, and confirming the conditions of the soldiers, which helped Shuguang a lot. People including Chen Sheng were brought here by him, and Gu Qiongsheng was very grateful.
Dr. Zou was quite shocked when he received the message from Gu Qiongsheng.
"You can teach me now? So soon?" He clutched the terminal in disbelief. "What day is today? Isn't it April Fools' Day?"
Gu Qiongsheng chuckled on the other end of the phone: "Why would I lie to you? Of course it's true."
Doctor Zou was stunned for a long moment, his left fingertips nervously rubbing the corner of his clothes. When he spoke again, his voice was a little dry: "No, didn't you say last time that it can't be done now, and it will take a long time..."
"Yes, a long time later," Gu Qiongsheng said with a smile, "It's been more than three months, isn't it a long time?"
Doctor Zou: “……!”
Wow, is this considered long?
Ever since he got the news from the last inter-school league, he has been prepared to wait for ten or twenty years.
Only three months had passed, and he was already able to learn healing skills?
Dr. Zou still hadn't come to his senses until he caught the nearest spaceship, set foot on the land of the first planet, and smelled the fresh air with the scent of earth.
He walked into the military area in a daze, and was also pulled into a small room by Gu Qiongsheng. A list was slapped in front of him. Gu Qiongsheng winked at him and said, "Choose. Which treatment do you want?"
Dr. Zou froze again.
He almost bit his tongue: "Is this something I can choose?!"
Gu Qiongsheng smiled and said, "This is a special benefit for you. Thank you for helping me a lot during this period of time. As for the others, you will have to listen to my arrangements."
She currently has a total of 4 skills, each of which has its own unique uses. If each apprentice can only learn two, they must be distributed reasonably to ensure that the overall effect is not unbalanced.
However, Dr. Zou is the first one and an old acquaintance, so it is understandable to give him some priority benefits.
Gu Qiongsheng was vague about the specific effects of the skills, and they were roughly divided into single-target treatment, group treatment, damage increase, purification, acceleration... and so on.
But when these fell into Dr. Zou's ears, they seemed even more incredible.
He glanced at the list for a long time. Although there were not many items, he was still dazzled by the choices. Finally, he put the list down, raised his head in confusion, looked at Gu Qiongsheng eagerly, and asked in a low voice: "...Can I have them all?"
I can't really pick one, I'm so tempted by every one of them!
Gu Qiongsheng: "I can't..."
Before she finished speaking, a thought suddenly flashed through her mind.
——If I accept a disciple first, then release him, and then accept a disciple again, can I teach all four skills?
If this method works, then when she unlocks more skills in the future, can she also use this method to debug bugs?
"...Well, you pick the two you want the most first, and I'll try again later."
Gu Qiongsheng didn't say anything definite.
Although she didn't know whether the system allowed her to accept a second disciple, she could always give it a try.
After a difficult decision, Dr. Zou finally chose the single-target treatment and purification skills reluctantly.
That is Gu Qiongsheng’s first and second skills.
"Eh," Gu Qiongsheng was a little surprised, "I thought you would choose the third one."
It can heal a large group of enemies, can be used hands-free, and can be stored for a long time. It has a strong effect and high flexibility. Gu Qiongsheng saw that Dr. Zou's eyes lingered on it for a long time, and thought that he must have taken a fancy to this skill.
Doctor Zou stared at the list reluctantly. "No. Save this kind of large-scale healing technique for when your army is fighting. It's more effective."
"As for me, I'm more suited to one-on-one therapy. After all, I have many years of medical experience. If possible, I'd like to study the combination of therapy and medical skills..."
When talking about the areas he is good at and likes, Dr. Zou's eyes shine brightly and his whole body exudes joy.
Gu Qiongsheng nodded.
She placed her hand on Dr. Zou's shoulder and whispered quietly, "System, accept me as a disciple?"
[Beep, the apprenticeship application has been approved, and the master-apprentice function is being activated.]
[Please improve the intimacy between master and apprentice within 7 days——]
Gu Qiongsheng: “…?”
Damn, I almost forgot, there is also a word "intimacy" in the system prompt!
These are all settings in the original game, used to enhance player stickiness. The dog planner set up a gift mall specifically to sell a variety of flowers to increase the intimacy between the master and the apprentice.
Gu Qiongsheng really didn't expect that the system would inherit such a useless design.
She looked at the system prompt and was worried: "How do I increase intimacy?"
Could it be that I want to send flowers too?
【……】
The system fell silent again.
Gu Qiongsheng was gloomy, and finally had no choice but to look at Dr. Zou with a wry smile, his voice full of guilt: "Sorry, before teaching the treatment, can you... buy me a bouquet of flowers?"
Doctor Zou: “???”
…
Dr. Zou left in confusion.
To be honest, he really didn't understand what the connection was between "learning healing skills" and "sending a bouquet of flowers". If the person sitting in front of him was not Gu Qiongsheng, he would definitely think that the other party was playing a trick on him.
Gu Qiongsheng is also a capital embarrassment.
Asking people directly for money... Damn it, she has never done such a stupid thing in her two lifetimes!
"No, no, I have to think of a way." Gu Qiongsheng rubbed his cheeks and muttered softly, "Or... let's set some rules for our sect. Others offer tea, but if you want to learn healing from me, you must give flowers to the master first."
After several rounds of mental preparation, Gu Qiongsheng finally calmed down.
Just then, Zhou Feng knocked on the door and came in: "Xiao Qiongsheng, I brought the person to you. But I still don't understand, why do you need so many therapists?"
"People are coming?" Gu Qiongsheng's eyes lit up slightly, "Let them in quickly."
These healers will be the real backbone of the Dawn Legion in the future.
…
When Xia Weiyu stepped into the gate of the Dawn Legion, her palms were full of sweat.
She was a therapist at the First War College—or, until a day ago, she had been a therapist at the First War College.
And at this moment, she was just an ordinary student with nothing.
Or the kind that dropped out of school.
"Is this the Dawn's base?"
Standing at the gate, looking up at the newly built but extremely magnificent base, Xia Weiyu felt her heart pounding.
Because of her awakened healing qualities, she suffered for many years.
Xia Weiyu had already made up her mind that once the treatment department was abolished, she would quit and go home to help her parents mine.
But I didn't expect that when I reached the end of the road, a ray of hope suddenly emerged.
"...The Dawn Legion."
Xia Weiyu murmured softly, each word turning between her teeth, her emotions complex and tangled.
Is there really a healing technique that can be learned in this world?
Can they really join the official legion and become a soldier with their heads held high?
It all sounded so unbelievable, like a joke.
But all the students from the Department of Therapy came anyway.
Because they heard that the commander of the Dawn Legion was Gu Qiongsheng.
This name had been ringing in the ears of the students in the Department of Healing for some time. They knew her healing skills were unparalleled, capable of curing even the most severe illnesses doctors had declared fatal. She was also unstoppable on the battlefield, a legend in the hearts of countless soldiers.
If it was Gu Qiongsheng, maybe he could create a miracle?
Xia Weiyu crossed her hands, clenched them against her chest, and prayed softly in her heart.
At this time, the gate of the Dawn Station opened.
Gu Qiongsheng walked out of the door, smiled at them heartily, and said in a clear and pleasant voice: "Are you all here?"
"Everyone, come in quickly."
Xia Weiyu squeezed into a group of nervous and anxious classmates and walked into the gate cautiously.
Gu Qiongsheng explained the newly released "Master's Sect Rules" to them and then asked, "Can I feel your spiritual power?"
Xia Weiyu was the closest, and just happened to meet her curious eyes. She was stunned for a moment: "W-what?"
Gu Qiongsheng raised his hand and pointed: "That's your treatment method."
