Early in the morning, I woke up and slept on the edge of my bed for the whole night. It was a terrible feeling, and I felt like my bones were about to fall apart. My other book friends looked at me normally:
"Achoo!"
I rubbed my nose. As expected, I was still a normal person even though my body had been strengthened by the virus. I was soaked in the rain last night, and I didn't even take a hot shower. My head still popped up.
Behind me, bell-like laughter rang out as He Yi and Murong Mingyue walked in side by side. Murong Mingyue held a cup of hot tea in her hand and said, "Lu Chen, this is cold medicine. Drink it. We're going to be busy again today …"
I accepted the hot tea and gave it a sniff. As expected, it smelled like medicinal herbs. This must be cold medicine. Fans loved to read it.
I downed it in one gulp. So comfortable!
"What are you guys busy with today?" I asked.
He Yi smiled. "I need to make a trip to Nanjing to take care of some paperwork. If I don't show up in person, the GGS branch in Nanjing won't buy it at all. Also, we'll get our company license this morning. Heehee, the Raincube Corporation officially begins its journey here!"
I nodded and smiled. "Mn. What can I do?"
He Yi giggled and put an arm around my shoulder. "Raincube's main business is to provide technical support to Blue Star and Eternal Moon Corporation in the China region. As for you, I'm going to build Raincube's virtual gaming center, and you're going to be the center's security manager. Hehe, you're going to be our ace fighter. You're going to provide the strongest protection for our virtual gaming center. Maybe after we sign with Lenovo, we'll sign with our own company."
“OK！
Um … an ace fighter? Is it similar to the martial scholar in Tang Bohu's Autumn Fragrance? "I asked tentatively. He Yi burst into laughter.
He Yi burst into laughter. "What? Do you want to be paired with Sister Pomegranate?"
"No need, I'm not that hardcore!"
"Hehe ~ ~"
… …
I looked at Murong Mingyue and said, "Sis, are you leaving the hospital today?
It's best for you to rest for two more days. You suffered a shock last night, so it's not good for you to go out … "
Murong Mingyue shot me a long look before replying, "What shocked me wasn't the crash, but … the moment I opened my eyes, I saw a silly boy digging the ground like a mole. He didn't know that my A8 is convertible, and the top can be opened with a button …"
"Damn it, how would I know? F * ck …"
I grumbled to express my dissatisfaction, but Murong Mingyue suddenly walked up to me and kissed me on the cheek. She smiled and said, "Alright, let's not talk so much. It's time for you, the martial scholar, to go back to watching over the house. I'll be accompanying Eve to Nanjing today. There's an experienced chauffeur driving, so don't worry too much.
"Well, okay. Do you want to go back in the morning?"
"Of course, change your clothes. The clothes I wore yesterday are all wet and sticky!"
"En!"
Admittedly, everyone was wet last night, but as long as they could go home, everything was worth it.
… …
After we found Beiming Xue who had bought us breakfast, we ate a bit and returned to the workshop. After washing up, Murong Mingyue and He Yi changed their clothes and left the workshop. Both girls had bloodshot eyes. The past few days had been hectic, but Beiming Xue and I couldn't do anything to help. We could only do what we could to protect Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls and Dark Moon City, and provide Raincube Corporation with the strongest military force in the virtual world!
At the same time, He Yi said that Raincube Corporation had just been established, and they were in dire need of funds. Therefore, I transferred 10 million RMB of the 12 million RMB in my card to He Yi. It wasn't a lot, but it was enough to support a branch employee's salary for three months. After that, I had to go online and earn more money. He Yi had created the company as a shareholding company, and she owned 50% of the shares. She gave me, Murong Mingyue, and Beiming Xue 10% each. The remaining 20% would be used to attract investors.
All in all, with GGS's foundation and He Yi's influence in China and Asia, Raincube Corporation would become an influential company in China in the future. Raincube's technology, in particular, was one of the best in Asia and the world. It was why Eternal Moon and Blue Star were willing to cooperate with He Yi and cooperate with Raincube.
After watching the two girls leave, Beiming Xue and I logged back into the game and started working hard!
… …
Swhoosh!
When I appeared on the plaza of Sky City, I quickly received notifications from a dozen or so auction houses. The pile of equipment I had consigned for sale had all been sold. The Bloody Dawn set was sold for more than 250,000 RMB, and the most expensive set was even sold for 470,000 RMB. I had to admit that there were a lot of rich people out there. As for the other pieces of equipment, the Earth Fiend War Boots, Earth Fiend Helmet, and Earth Fiend War Armor were all bought by the same player for a total of 3.75 million RMB. As for the very good Tempest Staff, it actually sold for the sky high price of 1.4 million RMB. As a result, I had earned nearly ten million RMB just from these pieces of equipment yesterday.
Of course, this was also due to good luck, and the equipment I got were all top-tier. If my luck was bad, I would only get Dark Gold or Purple Gold – grade equipment. Even if I did get Spirit-grade or Earth-grade equipment, they weren't Outstanding. Even then, I wouldn't be able to sell them for tens of thousands of RMB!
Mn, I transferred another 10 million RMB to He Yi's account. I owned 10% of Raincube Corporation's shares, and this was practically a dream of the Frost Cloud workshop. There was no reason for us not to help her. I heard that Beiming Xue had transferred 5 million RMB from her account to He Yi as well.
In reality, He Yi was just short of funds right now. The entire Raincube Corporation was estimated to be worth at least a billion RMB, and even 10% of the company was worth more than a billion RMB. This wasn't us giving charity to He Yi, it was He Yi giving us white buns with a smile on her face. All we did was buy some pickled vegetables.

I checked my level and saw that I was Level 142 at 77% EXP. Leveling speed was very limited without a quest, so I didn't bother looking for a leveling spot. My first priority was to raise my Spirit Cooking to Rank 8. After that, I would be able to craft Rank 8 Saint Spirit Potions and all sorts of stat-increasing potions.
I took out almost a hundred thousand gold and bought a bunch of Rank 7 ingredients and herbs. My fingers flew across the table as I concocted the Holy Spirit Potion — Holy Spirit Pill. Not long after, I heard a "ding" from the system. My Spirit Cooking had reached Rank 8 and a new potion recipe had appeared — [Agility Preparation LV-8]: Increases Agility by 400 points. Required ingredients: Agave, Green Pepper.
[Magic Preparation LV-8]: Increases Intelligence by 400. Required materials: Tiger Gall Grass, Green Pepper.
[Strength Preparation LV-8]: Increases Strength by 400. Required materials: Dragon Tongue Grass, Purple Cloud Gauze.
[Stamina Preparation LV-8]: Increases Stamina by 400. Required materials: Dragon Tongue Grass, Garlic.
[Fatal Poison LV-8]: Reduces the target's HP regeneration by 80% and causes the target to lose a certain amount of HP every second. The amount of HP lost depends on the user's stats. Required materials: Dragon Tongue Grass, Ghost Face Grass, Seven Star Grass.
[Blinding Poison LV-8]: Causes the target to lose vision for 1 second. Required materials: Dragon Tongue Grass, Purple Cloud Gauze.
[Silence Poison LV-8]: Prevents the target from chanting any spells. For 3 seconds, the target will not be able to use any magic. Required materials: Dragon Tongue Grass, Seven Star Grass, Tranquil Flower.
[Curse Poison LV-8]: Curses the target, greatly reducing their hit rate. There is a 30% chance that they will miss the target. Lasts for 12 seconds. Required materials: Dragon Tongue Grass, Poison Orchid, Lizard Venom.

The Rank 8 Spirit Cooking recipe caused my eyes to light up. The potions were all very powerful, especially the 400 Strength boost. What did this mean?
It meant that any warrior who obtained this potion could immediately consume it and gain 1400 Strength. Then, they could go to their instructor and learn Barrier Break. This was a qualitative change for a warrior!
Moreover, even if it wasn't for that, 400 Attribute Points was already very domineering. Imagine a player consuming a potion of four different Attributes, increasing all their Attributes by 400 points, for a total of 1,600 Attribute Points. What kind of concept was that? It was equivalent to a Level 320 system Attribute Point reward! It could completely transform a player, especially the Stamina Potion. With 400 Stamina Potions, it was equivalent to 4,000 points of maximum HP.
Furthermore, the Fatal Poison was best used to kill bosses. The Blind Poison, Silence Poison, and Curse Poison were all potions that were specially made for PvP. As long as they were used properly, they could completely crush any opponent in terms of combat power. Book buffs also loved to read:!
Goddammit, this feels great!
But here came the problem. The other ingredients were easy to obtain, but the Dragon Tongue Grass was extremely difficult to find. It wasn't an ordinary herb, and it wasn't included in the list of Rank 10 Health Potions!
… …
I was speechless. I'll just search the forums. I'll find it eventually.
I searched for a while and found that there was indeed information about the Dragon Tongue Grass. In the depths of Sky Forest, there was a map called Windmill Woodland. This map produced high-level mobs and a Rank 8 herb called the Dragon Tongue Grass. However, it didn't seem to be very popular, so no one was willing to go there.
Alright, I locked onto my target. Let's go! For the Dragon Tongue Grass!
I crossed Sky Forest and walked for almost half an hour. Finally, I arrived at a secluded area. I opened the world map and saw the words "Windmill Woodland".
From afar, I could see a huge, broken windmill swaying slightly in the middle of the forest. It had clearly been abandoned for a long time and had stopped working a long time ago.
Overjoyed, I sprinted forward and stepped on the fallen leaves in the forest. My mood was indescribably good. This Spirit Cooking was very powerful. It looked like I could sell Spirit Cuisines in Air Force One without restraint. Moreover, this was an exclusive ingredient that was unparalleled in the world. It would definitely make my store famous!
… …
While I was walking, a Level 122 warrior suddenly walked out of the forest in front of me. He raised his battle axe and shouted, "Halt! The Mad Dragon guild is hunting here! No one is allowed to enter Windmill Woodland!"
"Hunting?"
I raised my eyebrows. "What does that have to do with me? I'm here to pick herbs …"
