Chapter 180 Jishi Medical University 38
Sparkling lights flew from Yu Naixin's palm and landed on the fresh wound of the banyan tree.
The wound healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the fibers grew and remodeled. In just a few seconds, the huge gap that had made the whole tree obviously crooked was as if it had never existed, and it returned to its original flat and smooth appearance.
It was as if he were a doctor with miraculous healing skills.
Having witnessed Yu Naixin's actions firsthand, the viewers in the live stream were even more astonished than when they had previously seen her chop down a banyan tree with an ordinary axe.
[Holy crap?! Did "Yao Ling" use her spiritual power to restore the banyan tree to its original state?!]
γ?! I'm stunned! It seems like "Yao Ling" can heal trees more easily than she can chop them down!γ
[Theoretically speaking, it's impossible! Cutting down a tree requires infusing one's spiritual energy into another object, temporarily transforming it into a spiritual weapon. The only hard requirement is a sufficiently high spiritual energy coefficient; anyone can cut down a tree with a sharp weapon, right? But to use spiritual energy to repair a damaged object, besides having a high enough spiritual energy coefficient, you also need skill. It's like disassembling a sophisticated instrument is far easier than reassembling it! Moreover, anyone who has used spiritual energy knows that spiritual energy has no form; it can only be controlled by one's mental power. Getting it out of one's body is already incredibly difficult, let alone shaping it into a specific form and then meticulously covering specific areas for repair. I can't even imagine how terrifying that undertaking would be!]
[...What's even more terrifying is that the guests on the show only started learning how to use spiritual power from scratch on "Heartbeat 1000%". Compared to the dungeon guests who were born with the ability to manipulate spiritual power, they were already at a huge disadvantage. But even so, dungeon guests at the Domain Lord level might not be able to do what "Yao Ling" did. Just how strong is "Yao Ling's" talent?!]
The young banyan tree spirit was just as shocked as the audience.
The incident happened right under his nose, and he was the one most affected.
As its own "secondary home ground," the internal structure of this banyan tree is not only the original wood texture and the traces of spiritual power belonging to its owner, but also a complex network array formed by the program personally constructed by "that great one".
Yu Naixin, however, easily destroyed it, and then even more easily restored it to its original state.
The young banyan tree spirit's pupils trembled violently.
βIn other words, Yu Naixin possesses a spiritual understanding ability comparable to "that person"!
When this episode of the show first started, Yu Naixin was able to emerge unscathed from Professor Frankenstein's home turf. The young banyan tree spirit, who was secretly observing from inside the banyan tree, knew that this new guest was no ordinary person.
Later, Professor Frankenstein, despite having only one encounter with Yu Naixin that lasted less than four minutes, unusually showed no intention of harming her, further confirming the young man's suspicions.
Without considerable skill, this guest on the show wouldn't be able to keep the Frankenstein's monster in check.
The last time he saw the Frankenstein professor so wary of a guest on the show was when "Satisfied Medical University" only had an experimental building and a small open space around it.
A few days ago, Yu Naixin suddenly came to the lab again and left leisurely not long after. Only then did the young man from the banyan tree realize that his assessment of Yu Naixin was too conservative.
He didn't know what happened between Yu Naixin and the Stitched-together professor in the laboratory building, but the young banyan tree spirit probably heard the last few words the Stitched-together professor shouted.
To be able to win over her old rival to this extent, Yu Naixin's strength is already at a level that even the banyan tree spirit youth would avoid at all costs.
Even if it means violating the program's mandatory rules and facing considerable punishment, the young man from the banyan tree spirit is unwilling to have anything to do with Yu Naixin.
Who would have thought that Yu Naixin had so many tricks up her sleeve, forcing him to show himself?
He had only braced himself to deal with this great demon king, but he found that the opponent was even more terrifying than he had expected. The banyan tree spirit youth was truly filled with despair.
Despite knowing nothing about the live stream chat, the young man, nicknamed "Banyan Tree Spirit," effortlessly grasped the essence of Yu Naixin's widely recognized nickname among long-time viewers.
The young banyan tree spirit knew perfectly well that these guest characters in the instance had limited autonomy in terms of favorability ratings. Before reaching the maximum favorability rating, there were some scenes that would forcibly increase their favorability rating.
For example, Yu Naixin's actions right now.
When the "Heartbeat 1000%" program team attacked the young banyan tree spirit, the large banyan tree in the very center of the banyan forest that was the young banyan tree spirit was directly cut in half, forcibly capturing him in the simplest and most brutal way.
To outsiders, it simply appears as an old, frail banyan tree that has fallen over.
For the young banyan tree spirit, who has always had a smooth life since the birth of his intelligence, this encounter is the most terrifying and painful nightmare in his heart. Therefore, as long as the guests of the program can heal the trauma suffered by the banyan tree in the episode, they can gain a certain degree of favor from the young banyan tree spirit.
As for how the trauma occurred, all those involved and onlookers could see it clearly.
[Is "Yao Ling" producing and selling itself again? One trick is all it takes to make a living!]
[Repetitive moves don't matter, as long as they work!]
[Since "Yao Ling" did this, she must know that using this mechanism will increase the Banyan Tree Spirit's favorability. Since this mechanism exists, there must be corresponding fixed events arranged in "Ji Shi Medical University." Can any experienced viewers share their insights? This is only the third episode of "Ji Shi Medical University" I've watched. The guests from the first two episodes combined didn't even last a day; they were hunted down in the guest's territory after choosing their favorite male guest.]
Even viewers who watched many episodes wouldn't know for sure. Very few guests survived to the second half of the month, making the sample size too small to analyze any clear commonalities. I can only roughly estimate that it's related to the short-haired, bespectacled roommate NPC, triggering an event involving the banyan tree spirit youth, in which the banyan tree is likely to suffer physical damage.
[Wait a minute, can we really be sure that the mechanism repairs the banyan tree spirit's main body after it's damaged? The forced affection-boosting events arranged by "Heartbeat 1000%" are theoretically possible for all the show's guests, but the problem is, how could ordinary show guests possibly repair a powerful demon's secondary main body?!]
The number of viewers in the "Jishi Medical University" live stream was consistently high. After Yu Naixin made several unexpected moves, the popularity soared, attracting many seasoned viewers.
Even with such a tricky question, more than one viewer quickly provided an answer.
[Use healing potions from the system shop. The basic ones don't have this effect, but the intermediate ones can heal any living being with spiritual power. One costs 600 Sweet Coins; if one isn't enough, buy another. The only downside is the price. However, the effect is definitely not as miraculous as "Radiant Spirit." It's based on the system's mechanics; if it can heal even slightly, it's considered a success.]
[If it weren't for "Yao Ling's" destructive methods, the banyan tree wouldn't have been reduced to dust by the cut parts, making it so difficult to restore... Under normal circumstances, it would just be a broken branch, and restoring the branch would be simple; you could just use tape or strips of cloth to tie it back together.]
[The actions of "Yao Ling" may seem inexplicable, but they are not entirely without reason. She specifically used spiritual power for destruction and repair, which is no small cost. It's impossible to say there was no special cause. I have reason to speculate that she objectively increased the intensity of destruction and repair because this would deepen the "healing" of the banyan tree spirit youth, thereby gaining maximum favor within this event mechanism.]
The analysis in the comments section is correct.
No matter how much the banyan tree spirit youth resisted, his affection for Yu Naixin quickly increased.
Furthermore, due to Yu Naixin's deliberate actions and the bonus from "Purifying Harvester", the young man's favorability towards the banyan tree spirit was quite high, reaching 60%.
It's a bit lower than Professor Frankenstein's 70%, but at this level of affection, the young man from the banyan tree spirit couldn't help but develop softer feelings for Yu Naixin and wasn't as repulsed.
The banyan tree spirit youth pursed his lips, rarely taking the initiative to speak: "Yu..."
Before the banyan tree spirit youth could utter a second word, Yu Naixin interrupted him.
Yu Naixin withdrew her hand from the healing banyan tree and took two steps toward the banyan tree spirit youth, shortening the distance between them to a level far below normal social interaction.
Then, Yu Naixin raised her head and looked straight at the face of the banyan tree spirit youth.
Banyan Tree Spirit Youth: "...!"
This time, the banyan tree spirit youth did not back down.
He had never had a chance to look closely before, but now, at such a close distance, the young banyan tree spirit realized that this unfathomable female guest was actually... so beautiful and charming.
Even with the most discerning eye, one cannot find any flaws in this face.
It's hard not to be captivated by it.
The banyan tree spirit youth soon discovered that he only needed to move forward a little bit to... touch Yu Naixin.
At that moment, Yu Naixin said two words to him: "Lower your head."
Banyan Tree Spirit Youth: "...?!"
Although he knew that Yu Naixin could never have meant that, the young banyan tree spirit couldn't help but feel a flutter in his heart at the sight of this scene.
Unable to explain what was going on in his mind, the young banyan tree spirit obediently followed Yu Naixin's instructions, bending slightly and lowering his head a little.
The next second, a fair and slender hand appeared in the banyan tree spirit youth's downward vision. Without the aid of any tools, spiritual energy was released to form a blade, silently severing a strand of hair hanging down in front of the banyan tree spirit youth's chest.
Her long gray hair danced in the air, and for a fleeting moment, in the young banyan tree spirit's vision, it overlapped with Yu Naixin's long, black hair on her chest, as if... they were intertwined.
The young banyan tree spirit had only one sentence left in his mind.
"We became husband and wife, and our love and trust are unwavering."
