“Eeek!” o( ▼ HH▼ / ;)o (Impossible!)
Rainbow was getting more and more upset, as she had agreed to become David Jones’s pet only because of his strengthening, but now, in just a few days, he wanted to cut down on her strengthening times.
She then recalled how touched she was last night, and felt as if she had been deceived, staring at David Jones with dead eyes.
“Okay, okay, it’s my fault, I shouldn’t have said that. I won’t skip the strengthening today, don’t worry.”
David Jones knew his actions were inappropriate, but he didn’t expect Rainbow’s reaction to be so strong.
He shook his head helplessly, not even in the mood to think about last night’s outburst of Dragon-Wielding power, and he spent a lot of effort to coax the angry Rainbow.
After all, he was the one at fault for not honoring the agreement, let alone the fact that Rainbow had just helped him earn several million Star Coins in battles a few days ago.
No, the more David Jones thought about it, the more guilty he felt, and couldn’t help but slap himself in the face.
“Can’t you be a little more responsible? You’re even going to break promises you made to children.”
After his reflection, he decided to immediately go out and make some purchases, buying some supplements to replenish his body.
Tonight, he really must not disappoint Rainbow’s expectations.
As for why David Jones didn’t choose to buy from the mobile app and instead dragged his tired body out to shop, it was simply because he was too broke at the moment and couldn’t bear the high delivery fee in the evening.
“Come on, go into the Star Ring to rest first, and I’ll help you strengthen later.” David Jones received Rainbow, who was acting proud, into the Star Ring.
David Jones would usually carry all his valuable items with him, and he wouldn’t even leave Rainbow alone when he went out to buy medicine.
Pharmacy culture was very popular on Blue Star, and on the bustling streets of Waterland City, there would be a pharmacy every few kilometers.
So, it didn’t take long for David Jones to find a pharmacy called “Elixir Cauldron Apothecary” after he went out.
As soon as he entered the Pharmacy Hall, David Jones smelled a mixture of medicinal fragrances, which he liked very much, feeling that it was very unique and not pungent, somewhat similar to the faint scent on Rainbow.
He glanced at the layout of the Pharmacy Hall, which was a bit different from the modern style he had imagined, and was a bit more simple.
There was an empty space in the middle of the room, with a medicine cabinet on three sides against the wall. The drawer on the cabinet was labeled with the names of the herbal ingredients. In front of the medicine cabinet was a wooden counter for the healers to prepare medicine.
“What can I help you with?”
As David Jones was looking for supplements, an elderly healer wearing a floral gown with white beard asked him.
“Is there any supplement to quickly restore physical strength, especially for Trainers?”
David Jones unconsciously averted his eyes, looking evasive and shy as he whispered the question.
“Just need something to restore physical strength? Looking at your pale complexion, you might need some elixirs to replenish psychic energy as well.”
Upon hearing David, the old healer’s eyes flashed, and he examined David Jones’s face closely, then spoke with a strange expression.
“Ah? No need, I just have too much physical exhaustion. Two doses of Vitality Powder will be enough.”
David Jones was taken aback for a moment, wondering if even pharmacies on Blue Star push sales like this, he declined directly.
Vitality Powder was a concentrated extract of medicinal herbs, with a small amount of consumption, strong and lasting medicine effects, mainly for activating blood circulation, strengthening the body, and enhancing physical constitution.
David Jones happened to have researched elixirs himself and had learned quite a bit of novice knowledge from online Pharmacists.
After all, a Trainer who doesn’t want to be a Pharmacist isn’t a good Trainer.
During the process of raising pets, Pet Resources are indispensable.
Unless you’re incredibly lucky and come across a genius treasure right away, or you’re a Pharmacist yourself, otherwise, you can only buy elixirs made by Pharmacists.
Elixirs made by Pharmacists by extracting Superior Herb Essences can quickly enhance the strength of pets.
Low-level elixirs are easy to come by, as most pharmacies carry them. However, high-level elixirs are not something the average person can easily purchase.
Without enough power and connections, one can only dream of acquiring high-level elixirs, which makes the status of a pharmacist in Blue Star exceptionally prestigious and distinguished.
David Jones naturally wanted to become a noble pharmacist as well.
Especially since his Second Talent consumes an endless amount of stamina. Without the help of elixirs, he might not even be able to meet the strengthening requirements of Rainbow in the future, let alone contract with other pets.
Thinking about the countless pets waiting to be nurtured in the future, David felt immense pressure. He was still young and didn’t want to run out of energy and die young.
“Two sets of Vitality Powder for a special price of 6,000 Star coins.”
“Hiss-!” After paying, David picked up the elixir powder and gasped in pain.
He hadn’t purchased any supplements before because they were too expensive and resource-consuming.
“Young man, do you not need any psychic medication?”
With a confident and serious expression, Cameron Booth stroked his snowy beard and continued to inquire.
“Is there something wrong with my psychic? ”
David felt something was off, but the old healer in front of him seemed strange, not like a scammer.
“Mind if I take your pulse?” After pondering for a moment, Cameron furrowed his brows.
After hesitating, David extended both his hands for the old healer to give a pulse diagnosis.
After a moment of consideration, Cameron looked at David strangely, as if he had encountered an extremely rare pulse pattern.
“The qi comes from the Kidneys and returns to the Kidneys. Therefore, when the Kidneys receive qi every day, their breath becomes deeper.”
“This shouldn’t be! At your young age, you have diminished blood and psychic, a somewhat damaged foundation. Judging from your pulse, your psychic has also suffered significant damage recently, as if you’ve been backlash from something. Odd, very odd!”
At these words, David’s eyes narrowed, and a sudden realization hit him. He remembered the accident that occurred while producing Dragon Crystals last night.
He didn’t expect to encounter a famed healer while buying medicine. The healer had seen the problem with him at a glance.
“Please enlighten me.”
David looked intently at the confident old healer in front of him.
“I can’t really advise you, but I can help treat minor illnesses.”
“This is the Rejuvenation Elixir, which can restore psychic energy. You can take it with Vitality Powder.”
“Avoid intense physical activities for the next half month. Cultivating with Calm Mind every day for a while will lead to a full recovery.”
After taking out a Jade Bottle from the front desk drawer and placing it in front of David, Cameron said gently.
“Thank you, Healer. How much is this Rejuvenation Elixir?” David asked curiously.
“Meeting is predestined. This Rejuvenation Elixir is only a Class I S-tier elixir, just 10,000 Star coins will do.”
“Remember to do less of that when you get home. It’s important for young people to know their limits.” Cameron gently reminded him.
Hearing this, David’s face turned red. After paying the bill and thanking the healer, he awkwardly and quickly left the Pharmacy Hall.
He didn’t want to argue with the healer about this issue in public, as Dragon-Wielding was his secret.
Watching David’s retreating figure, Cameron chuckled with satisfaction, having sold another Rejuvenation Elixir and added to his performance metrics.
The young man was so pale it was clear he was exhausted and depleted.
Even after purchasing the medicinal supplements late at night, my earnest advice to him should count as a good deed for the day..
