The streets were dark, and empty glass bottles of low-grade nutrient solutions, along with various cans and garbage bags, could be seen everywhere.
Jiang Zheyu came here again to help the beastmen she had visited before with their mental purification, but she did not come in her own name; instead, she dressed up.
Jiang Zheyu, dressed in a black robe, hood, and cape, stood at the house she had just arrived at yesterday. However, as soon as she reached the door, she heard a heart-wrenching scream of pain coming from inside. She hesitated slightly as she raised her hand to knock. The orc inside was suffering from mental damage every day.
Inside the room, the space was cramped and low, and the dim yellow light flickered indistinctly.
"Father, kill me! I don't want to live anymore, I'm in so much pain!" The man, whose legs had lost all feeling and who was completely crippled, lay motionless on the bed. His eyes were bloodshot with pain, and his hands were tightly gripping his head. Due to the excessive force, blood spread down his head, flowing from his forehead to his eyes and finally to his chin. His once handsome face looked rotten and decayed because of his lifeless and listless appearance.
The old orc gripped the man's wrist tightly, afraid he would smash his head open, his cloudy eyes filled with tears: "Leica, just hold on, just hold on. Once the Imperial Capital Research Institute develops a medicine to treat mental injuries, you won't be in so much pain anymore."
Lyca was in excruciating pain, tears mixed with blood slowly streaming from her eyes: "Father, I'm in so much pain, please let me be free, and let you be free too..."
"Leica, I've already called a doctor to come and see you. Just hang in there, you'll be alright soon..." The old orc's voice choked with emotion without him even realizing it.
Just then, there was a knock at the door. He assumed it was the doctor. To prevent his son from committing suicide, the old orc tied Lyca up with even stronger ropes before rushing to open the door. When he suddenly saw the man in black robes outside, he immediately became wary.
“I can heal your son’s mental abilities.” Jiang Zheyu had the computer mimic a mechanical, gender-neutral voice for her.
One sentence made the old orc waver even more.
He knew perfectly well that the Imperial Research Institute had been researching for a century without finding a way to treat mental disorders, so what could this person possibly do at this point?
But perhaps it was Lyca's earlier desire to die that frightened him, and he wanted to take the risk.
But he still asked aloud, "What are the conditions?"
The man in black robes wouldn't help them without a reason; otherwise, he wouldn't have remained silent.
"It's simple, I just want star coins." Jiang Zheyu's mechanical, gender-neutral voice rang out. "Two million star coins. As far as I know, you received subsidies from the females, right? Providing this amount should be a piece of cake."
Jiang Zheyu also reminded the old orc that he could ask her for money.
The old orc hadn't expected that they would only ask for star coins, but then he realized that the black-robed man wouldn't have approached them for no reason; he probably knew that they had received long-term compensation from the females.
“Okay.” The old orc agreed. No matter what, she wanted to give it a try. He opened the door and let Jiang Zheyu in.
"I can treat you first, and then you can check if everything is correct before transferring the money to this account." Jiang Zheyu projected the virtual location account given by the system.
The old orc quickly wrote it down.
Jiang Zheyu went inside and came to the bedside where the injured orc was lying.
The orc lay on the bed, struggling desperately, as if the dilapidated bed was about to shatter from his violent struggles.
Jiang Zheyu used 100 star coins to exchange for an injection that would reduce his beastification value in the system shop. This was also a preparation to prevent his mental energy from being consumed too much without being able to completely purify himself.
She also did not attempt to provide emotional support multiple times in one day.
Previously, I only offered emotional support once a day in order to complete the task.
In fact, she had previously discovered that she only needed to rest for a few minutes after each emotional support session to recover, which indicates that she could actually perform emotional support every few minutes.
The beast transformation points gained in a day will no longer be just a dozen or so.
Previously, she only thought about completing the task and that was it, without any intention of trying to improve her mental strength. She was just in a very passive state. Now, she really wants to work hard to improve her mental strength.
The orc on the bed has a mental strength level of only A+, while Jiang Zheyu, as a female with an S-level mental strength, can easily control the orc.
The orc, who had been struggling wildly on the bed, stopped moving.
The orcs quieted down, making it easier for Jiang Zheyu to get started.
She reached out and grasped the orc's already beast-like form, slowly closed her eyes, and focused her mental energy to enter the orc's spiritual realm.
A pure white spiritual realm.
A giant spiritual sika deer lay in the middle.
The spirit deer had four limbs, but two of them drooped limply on the ground, as if it had lost its support. The black aura between its two hind legs was also exceptionally thick.
Jiang Zheyu, a stick figure in spirit form, walked over. The sika deer, lying on the ground, noticed someone coming in, but only opened its eyes weakly. Its dark brown eyes were lifeless and devoid of any light.
So even when Jiang Zheyu came in, he didn't react at all and just closed his eyes, as if waiting for his own death.
She paused for a moment, and soon the stick figure arrived beside the deer.
Jiang Zheyu mainly focused on grabbing the black energy around his legs.
Perhaps because she was too focused, she noticed that the black aura of the beast transformation value was slightly different from the black aura around the sika deer's legs.
The black markings around the sika deer's legs appear to be a darker shade.
After twelve breaths, she rested again. At this time, she raised her question to the system: "Aren't beast transformation value and healing value different?"
"Yes, host," the system slowly replied. "Ten of the twelve strands of black energy are numerical values for repairing the spiritual body, and these ten strands will be automatically converted into points."
Jiang Zheyu was surprised. Originally, the system's daily task only required 5 points of beast transformation value to evolve, and the corresponding reward would only be 5 points.
The amount of beast transformation points she purifies will be recorded in the promotion panel, without giving her any extra points or rewards.
However, repairing one's mental body can be converted into points.
Jiang Zheyu then continued to focus on catching the black energy.
More than half the time had passed, and Jiang Zheyu had been grabbing and stopping intermittently, catching a total of 187 wisps of black energy.
Its beastification value is 87 and its healing value is 100.
Jiang Zheyu realized that the reagents he bought to reduce beast transformation value were not needed, so he temporarily stored them in the system's inventory and would take them out when needed.
When she opened her eyes, she found that the doorway had become extremely dark; it was already night.
The advancement panel has also changed:
Name: Jiang Zheyu
Personality: Female
Current mental strength: S (182/3000)
Points: 138
