Chapter 87
Chen Hao had already made up his mind: he would refine the General Realm Pill himself.
In any case, he now knew the process for refining a General Realm Pill.
After saying goodbye to Old Bai, Chen Hao left the unfinished building complex.
At this moment, Bai Jie happened to be walking out of the infirmary.
She was eating a popsicle.
It was a Green Tongue.
She opened her small mouth, took the softened part into her mouth, and sucked on it gently.
"Xiao Hao?"
Bai Jie was a bit confused when she saw Chen Hao.
"Didn't you go find Old Bai?"
"I did."
"You did?"
Bai Jie looked at Chen Hao with a strange expression upon hearing this.
She discovered that Chen Hao was completely unharmed.
"Didn't he take you to refine pills with him?"
"Especially to show you his superb alchemy techniques."
Chen Hao's mouth twitched uncontrollably upon hearing this.
It turned out Bai Jie knew everything.
"He took me to see it; if I hadn't run fast, I would have been blown up."
"I don't think he should be an alchemist; he should be called a bomb genius."
"He's so good at blowing up furnaces."
"I think so too." Bai Jie laughed when she heard Chen Hao's words.
"Otherwise, why do you think an honorary alchemist like him would run off to those unfinished buildings?"
"It's not like he has a choice."
"I don't even know how many perfectly good laboratories he's blown up."
Chen Hao wasn't concerned about that.
He asked Bai Jie, "Sister Bai Jie, besides him, are there any other alchemists in our Ability Bureau?"
"No."
"None?"
"Yeah, you think alchemists are like rice, a dime a dozen?"
"There is one in the neighboring Shangchu City, but he has a grudge against our bureau."
"So it's impossible for him to help us refine anything."
"Actually, Old Bai is quite good, even though he only succeeds once every five portions of materials."
"But at least he can refine them, right?"
"And most importantly, he serves everyone for free."
"Free? Didn't he say it costs ten million to refine once?"
"Ten million? Who told you that?"
"Old Bai!"
Bai Jie's expression turned ugly instantly upon hearing this.
"That old guy, actually doing this behind my back—watch how I deal with him."
As she spoke, Bai Jie left quickly.
Watching Bai Jie's retreating back, Chen Hao seemed to have guessed most of it.
It was likely that Old Bai wanted to improve his alchemy skills.
But alchemy was a very expensive industry.
Whether it was the medicinal herbs needed for alchemy or the alchemy furnaces and other equipment, everything was extremely expensive.
That was why he was secretly collecting money.
Seeing Bai Jie leave, Chen Hao went to find Lu Fengfeng.
"What are you looking for this time?"
Seeing Chen Hao, Lu Fengfeng got straight to the point.
"An alchemist, or someone with an alchemy ability."
"An alchemist?"
Lu Fengfeng frowned.
However, she still began to search according to Chen Hao's request.
"Recently, a guy just awakened an alchemy ability."
"But the level is a bit low, only F-level."
"He's had some bad luck; he was kidnapped by the Scorpion Brigade."
"Kidnapped by the Scorpion Brigade?"
Chen Hao's expression turned ugly.
"The Scorpion Brigade really isn't picky!"
"They're even going after F-level ability users now."
Listening to Chen Hao's complaints, Lu Fengfeng said, "This ability user is a bit unusual."
"Unusual? How is he unusual?"
"His ability is [Lucky Alchemist]."
"Lucky Alchemist?"
"It is said that using this ability can increase the success rate of alchemy."
"At the same time, it can also improve the quality of the refined pills."
"Improve the quality of pills—do pills have quality too?"
When it came to alchemy, Chen Hao was a blank slate.
"Of course."
Lu Fengfeng took the pink lollipop out of her mouth.
"Good pills will have pill patterns on them; the best pills have five pill patterns."
"However, pills with five pill patterns belong to legends, because no one has ever truly seen one."
"Uh-huh."
Chen Hao nodded.
He said to Lu Fengfeng, "Fengfeng, please help me check and see where that guy is?"
"No problem."
Lu Fengfeng typed quickly.
After a search, Lu Fengfeng found the target's location.
"He is at sea."
As she spoke, Lu Fengfeng pointed to a cruise ship on the screen.
"Dragon King?"
"Uh-huh."
Lu Fengfeng nodded and typed a few more times.
Then she said to Chen Hao, "The next port of call for the Dragon King is Monkey Island."
"You can head to Monkey Island first."
"Good."
Chen Hao left the Ability Bureau, headed to the pier, and took a boat to Monkey Island.
After arriving at Monkey Island.
Chen Hao discovered that Monkey Island was actually a tourist destination.
Many beauties in bikinis were playing beach volleyball by the sea.
"If Xiaoji were here, he'd probably be happy to death."
It had to be said that watching beauties play with balls was a pleasing sight.
Just as Chen Hao was admiring the balls,
a huge cruise ship sailed in from the sea.
"It's here!"
Seeing the cruise ship, Chen Hao was extremely excited.
He stood up immediately and walked toward the Dragon King.
After the Dragon King docked, many tourists got off the ship.
Chen Hao ignored them.
Because he knew his target was still on the ship.
Chen Hao had bought a ticket for the Dragon King to the next island in advance.
After showing his ticket, he boarded the ship.
After getting on the Dragon King, Chen Hao began to wander around the ship.
His main purpose was to figure out the situation on the ship.
Before long, he had figured out most of the situation on the Dragon King.
Chen Hao knew it was time to act.
He walked toward a room on the Dragon King.
At this moment, inside that room,
several guys were looking at the man on the bed, their faces full of confusion.
"He's dead, this guy is actually dead!"
"Damn it, I went through so much trouble, and he's actually dead."
A lean man was full of anger.
He paced back and forth in the room.
"Boss, we didn't know this guy was seasick."
"We thought giving him some medicine would be fine."
"We didn't expect him to get worse and worse."
"If we had known, we would have taken the land route."
"Bang!"
Before that guy could react, the lean man punched him in the face, knocking him to the ground.
"If you had known? If I had known, would I need you to tell me?"
"What do we do now?"
Another man couldn't help but bite his lip.
"How would I know?!"
The lean man felt like he was going crazy.
He had planned for a long time to capture this guy.
He had finally succeeded and was preparing to take him back to claim credit.
He never expected this guy to get seasick and die from it.
The lean man was the boss of the three, so he quickly reacted.
"Let's go, find something to wrap this white pig up."
"Then throw him into the sea from the balcony."
A dead man had no value, because to plunder an ability pearl, it had to be dug out while the host was still alive to be effective.
The three of them used a bedsheet to wrap up the white, chubby man on the bed.
