Twelve hours had passed since the battle with the queen bee, and Jiang Yuan finally slowly woke up.
"Where did you run off to, you idiot? Why are you all swollen like this? I thought you weren't going to wake up!" Gu Anlei, who had been watching over him, was wide awake as soon as Jiang Yuan opened his eyes and immediately came over to ask him how he was doing.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuan looked down and realized that he had swollen into a large, fat man. He gave a wry smile, knowing that this was a side effect of the poisonous bee venom.
He originally possessed the ability to harmonize toxins due to his innate poisonous constitution, but after losing consciousness, this harmonization process also entered a dormant state. As a result, the venomous stinger bees that had not yet manifested began to wreak havoc again, leaving him covered in welts.
"Alright, I've brewed your medicine. Drink it while it's hot!" Gu Anlei took a pillow and put it behind Jiang Yuan's back, then turned around and went to the corner of the tent to prepare the medicine.
The search bar on the nearby smart device screen even had a search result for "what medicine should a comatose patient with edema take?" Although times have changed, Gu Anlei has mastered the essence of online medical consultation.
"And you call yourself a doctor!" Jiang Yuan smiled inexplicably upon seeing this.
"Who says doctors can't search for treatment plans on Tianqi!" Gu Anlei quickly put away her smart device, afraid that it would see her hasty treatment methods.
"No need for medicine, this is a soul injury, medicine won't work! As for the swelling, it will go down in a while." Jiang Yuan thanked her for her kindness, but even if it worked, there was no need for it.
"no!"
Gu Anlei had already prepared the medicine. She pulled up a chair and sat down next to Jiang Yuan's bed, saying in a serious tone, "These medicinal herbs cost me a lot of Holy Spirit Crystals. If you don't drink them, I'll just be feeding them to the dogs!"
"You're really good at talking. So feeding me is no different from feeding a dog, huh?" Jiang Yuan said speechlessly.
"Open your mouth!"
Gu Anlei picked up a spoon and shoved it into Jiang Yuan's mouth, catching him off guard and causing him to choke.
"Cough, cough, what kind of attitude is this? I'm a patient, after all..." Jiang Yuan was so frightened that he kept backing away.
"Doesn't it taste good?" Gu Anlei glanced at the delicious-looking medicine, then subconsciously scooped some into her mouth. After tasting it, she said, "No, I added sugar!"
"Fine, I'll drink it!"
Seeing Gu Anlei's actions, Jiang Yuan dared not touch the spoon again, picked up the bowl and drank the medicine she had prepared in one gulp.
"That's a good girl!" Gu Anlei smiled with satisfaction. Last time she got drunk, Jiang Yuan took care of her. Now that she finally had a chance to repay the favor, she certainly couldn't miss it.
"When you entered the East Third District just now, did you give the points to someone?" Although Jiang Yuan had been unconscious for twelve hours, he still remembered some basic things.
“If we don’t give them the points, we definitely won’t let you in. Besides, you said on the AI that you were hiding your identity, so I’m definitely afraid that others will recognize you. So it’s better to avoid trouble!” Gu Anlei didn’t care about the points. In fact, she came to Huasheng Academy more to supervise Jiang Yuan, and further studies were secondary.
Jiang Yuan glanced at his own school badge, then reached out to grab Gu Anlei's school badge.
"What are you doing!" Gu Anlei slapped Jiang Yuan's hand away quickly, and said in a panic, "At a time like this, you still dare to act like a hooligan?"
"Hey lady, what do you think I'm doing taking your school badge?"
Jiang Yuan was speechless when he realized that his loss of composure had caused Gu Anlei to misunderstand. It seemed that this time, the Ten Thousand Poison Needles had not only damaged his soul, but also his brain.
"School badge!" Gu Anlei looked down at the school badge on her chest, and her expression gradually became more and more interesting. She thought this guy had become incredibly lecherous and wanted to...
"Since we've been through thick and thin together, let's share the good times!" Jiang Yuan was also embarrassed and didn't want to explain. He took off his school badge and tossed it to Gu Anlei, saying, "Take as many as you want!"
Gu Anlei: "..."
"What, you look down on my school badge?" Jiang Yuan retorted. He had already raised his points to the Gold level just by killing the poisonous bees. You should know that only top students can raise their school badge to the Gold level in the ten-day freshman assessment. He only took one day and did not steal any other freshmen's points. It was a real achievement.
"Does this count as cheating?" Gu Anlei asked softly, as if there was an insurmountable hurdle in her mind when it came to cheating.
"Heh, is there any difference between what you get through charm and what you get through strength?" Jiang Yuan rolled his eyes. Gu Anlei had been in the army for quite some time, but she had learned the spirit of justice quite well.
"It seems not..." Gu Anlei's small hand swiftly took Jiang Yuan's school badge and divided the points equally. With just this one division, she found that her school badge level had been upgraded to the Radiant Gold level.
"What...what?"
Gu Anlei stared at the two school badges in shock, then asked in bewilderment, "Why are they both gold badges?"
"Surprised? Don't you know that the difference between each level of the school badge is tenfold? My Radiant Gold School Badge is worth at least six or seven Mithril School Badges," Jiang Yuan said casually.
"Wow, you're amazing!" Gu Anlei made no attempt to hide her admiration, but seeing Jiang Yuan's swollen body, she asked suspiciously, "You didn't go and poke the poisonous beehive in the flower sea, did you?"
Jiang Yuan's face twitched.
"real?"
Seeing that Jiang Yuan remained silent, Gu Anlei's expression became even stranger. She had seen many descriptions of the flower sea on the forum, and most freshmen considered it a forbidden place. But now, Jiang Yuan had destroyed the nest of the poisonous bees that everyone feared.
"It's fake, I picked up all these points on the street!" Jiang Yuan said calmly.
Gu Anlei immediately understood and chimed in, "That's right, we were all found, we didn't kill any spirit beasts!"
