Chapter 166: Chapter 166: The System’s Useless Minor Update

"Really?!"

Ming Rang’s gaze was intense as he stared at Chen Qing, watching her closely for fear that Chen Qing would give a negative answer once more.

"Yes."

Chen Qing, with her eyes downcast, uttered a sound and took out some tools from her space.

Some words, she did not say in front of Meimei, Ming Rang probably knew as well.

Meimei’s legs were not congenitally problematic, but due to acquired reasons, she couldn’t walk normally.

This must have happened when she was very young, and with the level of modern medicine’s development, there actually was a chance to cure her, but...

There were some basic medical devices in Chen Qing’s space. With her spiritual power and Extraordinary Ability, she could conduct a more extensive examination on Meimei.

A targeted approach was necessary for treatment.

Chen Qing wanted to try using the methods of her Doctor profession to treat Meimei, although her medical skills were already at C level, she was still an apprentice doctor.

In this regard, the system did not let them take any shortcuts.

Chen Qing also did not want to waste Extraordinary Points in this area, it was unnecessary.

As Chen Qing examined Meimei, the children who were playing around nearby all quieted down, not daring to make a sound.

They were afraid to disturb Chen Qing, fearing that if Chen Qing became unhappy, she wouldn’t treat Meimei.

They had grown up with Ming Rang since they were young and knew just how heavy Ming Rang’s burden was. They also knew how worried she was about Meimei’s situation.

Previously, there was no chance, but now, in this new world filled with Transcendence and mystery, the chances of Meimei’s recovery greatly increased.

And now, they had met Chen Qing.

After finishing the examination for Meimei, Chen Qing and Ming Rang, the two "great grudge seeds," sat facing each other. Ming Rang looked expectantly at Chen Qing as she scribbled on a piece of paper.

Meimei, even more nervous, pinched her palm, leaving red marks on it.

An opportunity to recover and become a normal person was before her, and even though Meimei was usually a very quiet and reserved child, she couldn’t help but reveal some of her feelings now.

"Follow the instructions on here. I’ll prepare the main medication in a few days and give it to you, I’m off."

Chen Qing handed the prescription and instructions to Ming Rang and got up.

"I’m off."

In the distance, the Mini Rabbits had already taken the supplies prepared by Chen Qing onto the island.

The Mini Rabbits, short and plump, looked extremely cute. Each Mini Rabbit carried several times its own weight in supplies, creating a comically cute sight.

The children immediately took a liking to the Mini Rabbits, but they were all very good at restraining their desires.

Even though they liked them, they only watched with their eyes, without any other actions.

"I don’t have much money on me, so here, take this money first—"

Ming Rang took out a money pouch, inside of which was money they had saved up by scrimping and saving.

Chen Qing had helped them so much, and it would be really shameless if she did not show any gratitude.

However, before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Chen Qing’s indifferent voice.

"No need."

Ming Rang raised her head to look at Chen Qing, but could only see Chen Qing’s retreating figure.

On the island, the Mini Rabbits set down the supplies and took all the prepared plants and seedlings in the camp.

They balanced the potted plants on their heads, bouncing and following behind Chen Qing as they left together.

Chen Qing didn’t care about Ming Rang and the others’ reactions; she always centered her actions around herself.

Back on the ship, Chen Qing immediately noticed a tiny bit of residual blood on the cold deck, which soon disappeared from her sight.

The moon was as cool as water, and the atmosphere around was extremely silent and oppressive.

On the other side of the ship, a pirate ship with a pirate flag floated quietly along with the undulating seawater, devoid of any signs of life.

There were indeed more pirates in the Elemental Sea than in the Gem Sea.

This is the so-called "Possession of the Gem Is a Crime", huh.

Chen Qing withdrew her gaze and opened a private chat channel.

[Chen Qing: Selling a single-masted sailboat (with pictures).]

[Passerby A: Wow, which pirate has fallen into the boss’s hands now? I bid 10 goldfish.]

[Passerby B: I bid 15 goldfish, does the boss take on ship modification business?]

[Passerby C: Count me in, 20 goldfish, I’d like to ask the same.]

[Zhao Fuli: No, what are the names of the three people above???]

[Super Invincible Cute Prince: Didn’t you know that the system silently updated after the gem event?]

[68th Successor of Zhao Group: Thanks, I know now.]

After the gem event, the system had quietly introduced some new features, such as the option to change names in chat channels.

They were all harmless, fun updates suitable for those who enjoy a laugh, including popular chat topics and more.

[Chen Qing: I don’t take ship modification jobs; you could consult a shipyard.]

Upon seeing Chen Qing’s response, Passerby A, B, and C all felt a bit disappointed; they had heard that the survivor team that bought Chen Qing’s boat made a fortune.

The modifications Chen Qing made on the boat were really tailor-made for the survivor team from Dragon Country.

Especially the mechanical arm on the ship’s body, which could fight, assist, and rescue people.

According to the boasting of that team, they could salvage at least a thousand cargo boxes a day, not counting other materials.

They had asked several shipyards, but if they weren’t too small to handle the job, the price was too high.

So they had thought to ask Chen Qing, hoping to get a bargain.

If it were modified by Chen Qing, they would accept the high price since there was already a precedent.

Too bad.

[Zhao Fuli: Boss, are you okay?]

Right after Chen Qing had replied to messages on the private channel, she suddenly received a rather abrupt message from Zhao Fuli.

[Chen Qing: Something happened to Shang Jia?]

Although it was phrased as a question, Chen Qing was certain that something similar to her situation had happened to Shang Jia.

If that was the case, then Yuan Fei would be no exception.

[Zhao Fuli: Hehe, can’t hide it from you, boss. Yuan Fei also had an issue; I don’t know the details, but it’s pretty chaotic on the opposite ship, kind of like a dragon without a head.]

Zhao Fuli had been coerced onto the ship by Shang Jia and felt no burden about betraying the Demon Dragon Pirate Group.

Moreover, for that magnitude, the Demon Dragon Pirate Group wouldn’t care.

Zhao Fuli couldn’t access any useful information either.

[Chen Qing: It’s resolved now, thanks for your concern.]

An official and mechanical response—Zhao Fuli quietly complained in her mind and swiftly replied to Chen Qing.

"Zhao’er, what are we eating today? The boss has already flipped eight tables."

The kitchen door swung open just as she closed the chat channel. A Demon Dragon Pirate’s head stealthily poked in.

The pirates of Demon Dragon Pirate Group were all very tall, making his action seem rather comical.

But Zhao Fuli couldn’t laugh at all and rolled her eyes in annoyance.

"Eat, eat, eat, that’s all you know! Why don’t you just eat me too!!!"

Ever since she boarded this pirate ship, Zhao Fuli had not a single good day, and her temper had only gotten more irritable.

Really, are the stomachs of the people on this ship black holes? They eat way too much!!

Zhao Fuli spent her days just cooking, and Shang Jia was the worst—one could eat eighteen meals a day!!
