Chapter 255: Chapter 255
Qian Qi gave Sikong Wang a sidelong glance, "Wangwang classmate, don’t talk nonsense."
After saying this, she opened the camera function on her Light Brain, and after taking a 360° no-dead-angle photo of Nangong Yan’s private handkerchief on her travel bag, she felt that the background of the travel bag was too understated and simple, directly dragging down the value of the handkerchief.
The feeling was very much like a beautiful and noble rich heiress standing with a shabby and scheming river monster man, revealing an uncomfortable mismatch everywhere.
If this photo were to be posted, others would surely suspect it’s a knock-off, right?
Qian Qi couldn’t help but look around, and after a search, she finally fixed her gaze on Su Ang’s hand, raising her eyes expectantly, "Senior Su Ang, can I borrow your hand for a moment?" ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ nοvelfire.net
Su Ang lowered his gaze to the bright-eyed Qian Qi. Under his silver broken hair, those jet-black eyes made it hard to discern his expression. Just when Qian Qi thought there was no hope, he stretched out his hand and said lightly, "Okay."
Qian Qi immediately rejoiced, placing the private handkerchief into Su Ang’s flawless white palm. Instantly, it felt like the handkerchief’s value doubled again. After bending over to find a few beautiful angles for the photos, she immediately opened the second-hand market and posted the private handkerchief there.
[Urgent sale! Nangong Yan’s private handkerchief, personally touched by Nangong Yan himself, 30 million + 30 yuan packaging fee no haggling~ Straight shot, cash on delivery, not free shipping not free shipping not free shipping!!!]
Su Ang slightly turned his head, the corners of his lips curving into an irrepressible laugh.
Seeing this, Sikong Wang couldn’t suppress his curiosity, took a peek, and then: ...
Poor private handkerchief, it isn’t even worthy of free shipping, and only deserves a 30 yuan packaging fee.
He looked sympathetically at Nangong Yan.
"It’s getting late, I have to attend to my own affairs." After posting, Qian Qi put away the handkerchief, slung the travel bag on her back, and said, "You guys have fun, I’m leaving first!"
"Then make sure to be safe!" Sikong Wang really wanted to go with Qian Qi, but he feared it might not be convenient if she was dealing with personal matters, so like a worried parent he said, "The magical beasts here haven’t been completely cleared, be very careful."
"Don’t worry." Qian Qi climbed into her silver-skinned hovercar, waved at the two, "You also be careful with A-level magical beasts, though I’ve already cast a spell..."
Before Sikong Wang could ask in confusion, she closed the car door and drove the hovercar away.
Qian Qi did not go straight to the system-designated B-level instance; she circled above the sealed city once before finally stopping at a temporary rescue station.
This rescue station was still receiving the injured survivors from the magical beast disaster zone. Without even entering, she could hear the cries and weeping of many patients, as well as the muffled groans of those enduring pain. Outside the rescue station, many patients sat on the ground because the beds inside were not enough, so they had to give way to those more severely injured.
A middle-aged doctor was standing in a corner far from the rescue station talking on the phone, brow furrowed as if pleading for something. Next to him, a young doctor finally couldn’t hold back anymore, snatched the Light Brain from the middle-aged doctor, and cursed angrily, "Why haven’t the medicines arrived yet! Damn it, how many times do we have to say it, there’s a severe shortage of medicines here! Severe shortage! Do you even know what a severe shortage means, dammit!"
"Xiao Wu!" The middle-aged doctor quickly grabbed the Light Brain back, gave the young doctor a slight glare, and then spoke humbly to the person on the Light Brain, "Please don’t mind him, the young ones are just more hot-headed. Our rescue station really is in dire need of medicines, the number of survivors far exceeds our expectations, the medical kits distributed by the Gong Family are simply not enough."
Whatever the other side said, it made the middle-aged doctor’s expression tense, and then he silently hung up the phone.
"What did he say?" Xiao Wu asked angrily, "Did they give us that limited funding line again, telling us not to waste it?"
The middle-aged doctor sighed.
The doctors who had traveled from elsewhere to treat the survivors at this dangerous site were either volunteers or sent by their hospitals. While saving lives is a doctor’s duty, who could have guessed that the Gong Family would invest almost all the funds into finding an A-level instance instead of being more generous in medical aid for the disaster area rebuilding.
No one knew whether the policymakers were too indifferent and dismissive of ordinary people’s lives or if the funds after layers of exploitation were indeed insufficient to purchase more medical supplies, but watching the patients repeatedly wailing in pain, it was the doctors who felt the most heartache.
With skills in hand but without resources, watching the patients was like having a heart cut with a knife, making them feel helpless.
"Damn it, all the reports talk about how the S-level Awakened stopped the A-level Magic Beast Tide, but not a word about the shortage of medicine and food, nobody cares about the medical supply request I posted. They even think I’m a scammer, dammit, even the admin locked my help post for fear of it stirring up negative opinions against the Family!" Xiao Wu pulled at his hair angrily, "What do we do now? Damn!"
The middle-aged doctor sighed, "Tomorrow, we’ll try calling again."
"Will it help!" Xiao Wu said, nearly breaking down, "If they wanted to give, they would’ve given! At this rate, before the Magic Beast Tide hits, people will starve and die of disease themselves!"
"Keep your voice down! Don’t let the wounded hear!" The middle-aged doctor reprimanded softly.
Listening to the conversation between the two, Qian Qi raised her foot slightly and walked over.
"Hello." She asked, "Are you short on medicine?"
"And you are?" The middle-aged doctor looked Qian Qi up and down. She was wearing a Defense Helmet, so he couldn’t see her face, but from her voice, he could tell she was a girl.
His gaze fell on the "S" insignia on her Defense Armor, his eyes narrowing slightly.
She could afford an S-level Defense Armor; she must be someone from a Family?
Qian Qi shook her head without answering, placing her travel bag on the ground, and after unzipping the compartment with the largest capacity, she poured out all the Blood Stopping Magic Potions inside.
"These are Blood Stopping Magic Potions, use them for now. More medical supplies and other resources will be delivered later."
As if fearing disbelief, she pulled up her sleeve, lifted a dagger, and slashed her arm. Watching the blood from the wound drip to the ground, she then sprinkled the Blood Stopping Magic Potion on the wound.
The middle-aged doctor and the young doctor suddenly looked at Qian Qi in astonishment, "This..."
Seeing the wound heal instantly, the middle-aged doctor reacted first, immediately picking up the Blood Stopping Magic Potions from the ground excitedly, thanking her continuously, "Thank you, this is wonderful, many patients can be saved now!"
Qian Qi looked at Xiao Wu, who was kneeling beside her and was also excitedly gathering the potions, her voice slightly muted under the helmet, "I stumbled across your post on the forum, 027 Temporary Rescue Station, urgently lacking medical supplies, including those at other rescue stations."
Upon learning that the B-level instance was in the sealed city, she began scouring various forums for all the news about the sealed city, and eventually saw the help post Xiao Wu had sent on the Dungeon Association forum.
"You saw it?" Upon hearing this, Xiao Wu’s eyes couldn’t help but water, tears of grievance fell down as he fiercely wiped his eyes with his arm, "I thought nobody saw it, and I didn’t dare to hold out much hope. After all, who would risk coming to the sealed city when a Magic Beast Tide could erupt at any time here..."
"As long as you post, someone will eventually see it." Qian Qi glanced at the time, then looked up at the sky, saying lightly, "Ah, they’re here now."
With a roar from the sky, the middle-aged doctor and Xiao Wu looked up in confusion.
In the daylight of the blue sky, accompanied by a thundering roar, a dozen IKD-marked helicopters streaked across the sky like black guardians, leaving a long, never-ending shadow of clouds, each with a solid rope attached to several supply crates on their landing gear.
One helicopter hovered nearby, while the others flew off in different directions, clearly transporting supplies to other rescue stations.
"The terrain here isn’t suitable for landing helicopters, get the security team to untie the ropes and deliver the supplies to the rescue station." Qian Qi instructed while looking at the helicopter not far off, "For any further issues, directly contact the IKD support staff."
When she finished speaking, Xiao Wu and the middle-aged doctor found their throats constricting with emotion. Not knowing how else to express their gratitude, they could only bow deeply to Qian Qi, "Thank you, thank you so much!"
"Who are you really?" Xiao Wu stared at Qian Qi, unable to resist seeking an answer.
Qian Qi waved without speaking. She zipped up her backpack and turned towards her hovercar. Lifting her left wrist, she opened the Light Brain and messaged the Magic Plant Department group chat:
[I am your uncle]: The information on the sealed city is accurate. Disseminate news about the shortage of resources in the sealed city to increase grassroots attention. If anyone plans to supplies, remind them to stay safe and deliver them to the Guang City reception point, where the IKD aircraft will take over for delivery @All members
"Ding dong~ ding dong~" From the Light Brain, replies from the Magic Plant Department group chat flashed in.
