17: Thunder Qi and Blood Pills

Technology Pharmacy!

As Liang City's largest chain pharmacy, it has an incredibly powerful background.

Standing behind it is the mysterious and powerful Technology Martial Hall!

In this world where both physical bodies and technology have reached their Peak, the entire High Martial Civilization's top three powers are:

First, the Limit Martial Hall, which confronts the Alien Civilization.

Second, the Technology Martial Hall, which enhances the overall strength of humanity.

Third, the Martial Artist Alliance, responsible for maintaining human public order.

These three major organizations collaborate, jointly safeguarding the future and hope of humanity.

Important supplies such as Qi and blood medicine, weapons, and armor, distributed across the nine ecological zones, all originate from the Technology Martial Hall.

This vast and mysterious organization, with its exceptional technological prowess and innovative spirit, leads the entire High Martial Civilization forward.

And the founder of the Technology Martial Hall is Durags, who is hailed as the second strongest in the Civilization!

Although his strength is not as great as Yan's, his immense contributions to the overall development of humanity cannot be ignored by anyone!

In this era of highly advanced artificial intelligence, almost anything can be purchased online.

However, some special medicines cannot be directly purchased through online shopping.

Chen Du slowly pushed open the door and walked into the store; this was his first time here.

If he didn't have 200,000 yuan in his card, he wouldn't dare to walk into such a large pharmacy.

Upon entering the store, Chen Du was immediately captivated by the sight before him.

The store was neatly arranged, with a dazzling array of medicines that made people's eyes blur.

The store was large, but there weren't many customers, only about a dozen.

At this moment, a beautiful female clerk with twin ponytails walked over:

"Welcome, it's a pleasure to serve you!"

To ensure employment rates, relatively easy jobs like those in pharmacies are all handled by humans.

Meanwhile, arduous and dangerous tasks are undertaken by robots, which both improves efficiency and guarantees safety.

This not only solves employment issues but also allows customers to experience more attentive service.

Chen Du smiled and replied, "Hello, I'd like to purchase three boxes of 'Thunder Qi and Blood Pill.'"

"Thunder Qi and Blood Pill?" The twin-tailed clerk was first taken aback, a hint of confusion on her face, seemingly unfamiliar with the name.

She then realized her lapse and quickly said,

"I apologize, this is my first day on the job, and I haven't learned all the names yet. I'll check for you; please wait a moment." After speaking, she turned and hurried towards a computer in the store.

She rapidly typed on the keyboard, producing a clattering sound, and the data on the screen continuously scrolled.

After a while, she turned around, a smile on her face, and said to Chen Du:

"Hello, there are nine boxes of Thunder Qi and Blood Pill left, but this medicine cannot be purchased directly; a 'Endurance Test' is required."

Chen Du nodded, remaining silent.

This was precisely why he couldn't buy it online.

The Thunder Qi and Blood Pill is a special medicine with remarkable efficacy, one of the best qi and blood medicine available to ordinary people before becoming a Martial Artist.

However, this medicine comes with certain risks.

Once taken, its medicinal properties will transform into thunder, flowing through the Meridians in the body.

The effects of the medicine last for about thirty minutes.

If the user fails to maintain a high level of Mental Energy concentration during this period,

the thunder within the body will become chaotic and disorderly, potentially even endangering his own safety.

Therefore, when purchasing this type of medicine, an Endurance Test must be performed.

This ensures that the purchaser possesses sufficient endurance and focus to avoid any accidental situations.

Once, a heartbreaking incident occurred.

A student died after taking the Thunder Qi and Blood Pill because he could not endure the pain.

This incident garnered widespread public attention and prompted relevant departments to formulate stricter regulations.

It requires passing an Endurance Test before purchasing such medicines.

This is to ensure consumer medication safety and prevent similar tragedies from happening again.

The Thunder Qi and Blood Pill also gained notoriety because of this, becoming a hot topic of discussion among many people.

With thousands of types of medicine in the store, the female clerk was just an ordinary person, without Chen Du's unforgettable Mental Energy, so it was understandable that she didn't know about this particular medicine.

This medicine did not appear in regular textbooks; Chen Du learned about it through other channels.

Subsequently, led by the female clerk, he entered a room about five square meters in size.

In the center of the room was a blue chair, and the female clerk pointed to the side of the chair:

"Please scan the QR code above first."

Chen Du did as he was told, and with a "beep," he immediately received an email.

The female clerk watched his actions and explained, "This is the Endurance Test consent form."

"After signing, we will conduct an Endurance Test on you at 50% intensity."

"During this period, we are not responsible for any harm to your body."

Chen Du nodded, scrolled directly to the bottom, and signed and submitted without hesitation.

He knew that these tests all had robust protection mechanisms.

Even if an accident did occur, it wouldn't be so painful as to be unbearable.

The actual purpose of this consent form is to protect the pharmacy, preventing issues of responsibility in case of an accident.

Under the guidance of the female clerk, Chen Du sat on the chair.

The female clerk walked behind the chair and skillfully operated the control panel.

With a "beep."

Over twenty small, suction-cup-like devices extended from all directions and quickly attached to Chen Du's torso.

"Mr. Chen, if you have no other questions, I'm about to press the start button now."

The female clerk smiled.

Chen Du nodded, indicating that everything was ready.

As the female clerk pressed the start button, Chen Du immediately felt a current spreading through his body.

These currents seemed in no hurry to advance, but rather slowly circled within his body, as if exploring every muscle and nerve.

The female clerk stood quietly to the side, looking at a palm-sized rectangular display screen on the side of the chair.

The number 100 was displayed on it.

This is a device for scoring the test subject; if the score does not reach 60 points after thirty minutes,

the purchase of Thunder Qi and Blood Pill is not allowed.

Ten minutes passed.

The score on the display screen was still 100 points, and Chen Du's expression showed no change.

It was the same as when he first sat down.

This...

The female clerk walked behind the equipment, saw the green light shining normally, and was a bit puzzled.

Twenty minutes, still the same.

Seeing this, she couldn't help but ask,

"Mr. Chen, do you feel an electric current in your body?"

"Yes, it's quite strong, moving back and forth on my nerves!"

Looking at Chen Du's calm expression, the female clerk was momentarily speechless.

After 30 minutes.

"Hello, the price for a single box of Thunder Qi and Blood Pill is 10,000 yuan. Since the unit price exceeds 5,000 yuan, a 20% tax needs to be paid."

"Three boxes total 36,000 yuan, of which 30,000 is for the medicine and 6,000 is for tax."

Although Chen Du had checked the price in advance, the moment the female clerk said it, he still found it very expensive!

One box of this stuff only has ten pills, and three boxes are only enough for a month, yet it costs as much as his qi and blood milk for half a year!

"Card!"

After Chen Du left, the female clerk took out her phone:

"Hello, is this the technical department?"

"Please send someone over; a piece of equipment might be broken!"
