Chapter 126 Transplant Clinic, Black-hearted Profiteer

 [You slowly push open the heavy metal door...]

【Everything as far as the eye can see is a vast white fog.】

[The entire city of Sophia is shrouded in endless white fog, and the light of the setting sun shines through the white fog, but it still cannot dispel this fog called 'knowledge barrier'.]

[Your field of vision is also occupied by endless white mist. You open six eyes and look around, but you can only see the things around you clearly in the mist...]

[Looking at this fog, the memory in the body gradually revives...]

[...People are driven by the ever-expanding desire for knowledge, instinctively and blindly absorb knowledge, and gradually degenerate from people seeking knowledge into beasts lost in desire.]

[People are crazy about digging out other people’s eyes, just to obtain more knowledge, in order to satisfy their thirst for knowledge that can never be filled.]

[The great 'Almighty True Knowledge' lowers the 'knowledge barrier' to isolate and block people's desire for knowledge...]

[The fragmented memories come to an abrupt end.]

[You have acquired knowledge, and your knowledge amount has increased by 80! Current knowledge amount: 285/600]

Lin Xun touched his chin and thought.

It seems that the 'Almighty True Knowledge' wanted to protect his people, so he lowered the fog called 'Knowledge Obstacle'.

But judging from the current situation, such protection has probably failed.

[You noticed something in the white mist not far away.]

[You step forward to check...]

[This is a two-seater four-wheel carriage.]

[The horse seems to be made of brass, with a metallic luster all over its body. The gears and connecting rod arms are exposed in its belly, and a stream of hot water vapor spurts out from its nose from time to time.]

[The interior furnishings cannot be seen in the closed carriage, but from the appearance of the classical and gorgeous carriage, one can still think of the luxurious interior.]

【Are you going to step into the fog and explore, or board a carriage?】

This should be the carriage heading to the Bennett Transplant Clinic.

However, Lin Xun did not rush to board the carriage, but clicked 'Enter the Mist'.

[You step into the ‘knowledge barrier’ to explore the road ahead.]

[There is white fog in front of you, you can’t see anything clearly, and you can’t tell the direction...]

After waiting for a long time, the text is displayed.

【……】

[If you walk blindly, you will soon lose your way in the 'obstacle of knowledge'.]

【……】

【You stumble and stumble, but you can never get out of the fog.】

【……】

【You stumble and stumble, but you can never get out of the fog.】

The following text is always like this.

Lin Xun secretly discovered that it was indeed the case.

The 'knowledge barrier' directly blocks the follow-up path, and it is impossible to explore other areas according to normal exploration methods.

【You stumble and stumble, but you can never get out of the fog.】

Continue to wait for a long time before the underworld game is displayed.

[Knowing that you can no longer explore, do you want to commit suicide to return to the starting point of your journey?]

Switching back to the body of the scapegoat student, Lin Xun clicked 'Yes'.

[You lie on the ground and hit the ground hard with your head.]

【Boom!】

【You are dead!】

[An ordinary wandering soul is reborn in an ancient lecture hall...]

The mobs outside the corridor on the second floor have been refreshed and a new student body has been collected.

Lin Xun left the teaching building and chose to take a carriage.

[When you come to the carriage, the carriage door opens to the left and right by itself.]

[You step onto the brass steps extending from the bottom of the carriage and step inside...]

[As the carriage door closes, the carriage moves slowly in a certain direction.]

[You sit on the velvet cushion, unconsciously closing your eyes and gradually falling asleep...]

【……】

The game text is stuck here.

Lin waited silently.

It took half an hour for the game text to continue to be displayed.

[You suddenly wake up, the carriage has stopped without knowing when.]

[The carriage door opens by itself, and you get out of the car slowly...]

[In front of you is a building that is also shrouded in fog. You can only see the first and second floors of the building, and above that are the vague spires and flying buttresses.]

【Are you going to 'Bennett's Transplant Clinic'?】

[You walk into the clinic, and there is a figure wearing a black beak mask behind the counter, leaning against the counter and looking at the ink newspaper in his hand.]

[It senses your arrival, puts down the newspaper in its hand, and eagerly welcomes you.]

[‘Bennett’ recognized you as a former customer, and your second pair of eyes was transplanted by it.]

[It seems that it has not seen a living person for a long time, and it pulled you and talked a lot.]

[One moment I praise the beauty of your second pair of eyes, and the next I complain about the poor transplantation technique of your third pair of eyes.]

[As a repeat customer, if you want to buy new eyes, he will waive the cost of using the carriage this time.]

【Do you want to trade with ‘Bennett’?】

Lin Xun slowly typed three question marks.

Does it cost money to ride a carriage?

Could this ‘Bennett’ be a profiteer?

He was not in a hurry to trade, but opened the items.

Click on the ‘Bennett’s token badge’ you just obtained.

[You show ‘Bennett’s token badge’...]

[‘Bennett’ is very surprised and didn’t expect you to get this thing. He takes the badge and gives you two choices.]

[1. Opportunity to obtain a pair of eyeballs for free, but only eyeballs of rare grade or below.]

[2. In future transactions with ‘Bennett’, all goods and services will be discounted to 20% off.]

Lin Xun frowned slightly.

The first option looks very good, and you can get your eyeballs for free.

The second one looks pretty good too, with a permanent 20% discount.

But he didn't know the price of the eyeballs Bennett sold, so he couldn't judge.

['Bennett' seemed to notice your confusion, and he thoughtfully handed you the ink newspaper on the counter...]

[What is printed in ink on the newspaper is the price of eyeballs in the clinic.]

It seems that this NPC is quite easy to talk to, has good service, and knows how to think about customers.

Lin Xun looked at the text carefully.

[‘The Eyeball of an Unknown Creature’ (Excellent Grade), worth 3,000 points of spirituality.]

[‘Eyeballs of Unknown Creatures’ (Exquisite Grade), Worth 5,000 Spirituality Points.]

[‘The Eyeball of an Unknown Creature’ (rare grade), worth 10,000 spiritual points.]

[‘The Eyeball of an Unknown Creature’ (rare grade), worth 30,000 spiritual points.]

[‘The Eyeball of an Unknown Creature’ (epic level), worth 50,000 spiritual points.]

[‘The Eyeball of an Unknown Creature’ (epic level), worth 100,000 spiritual points.]

[‘The Eyeball of an Unknown Creature’ (legendary level), worth 500,000 spiritual points.]

[Except for special eyeballs, other eyeballs must be purchased in pairs, otherwise the eyeballs’ built-in functions cannot be triggered. The origin and function of the eyeballs will only be displayed after the transaction is completed.]

Lin Xun looked at the transaction list given by Bennett and counted the long series of zeros.

All eyeballs are ‘eyeballs of unknown creatures’, and their origins and functions are not shown.

This is really opening the door for gambling dogs. Gambling dogs are at home!

I take back the words I just praised Bennett for being considerate. Now I only have two words to comment: It’s so dark!

['Bennett' wagged his finger, indicating that there is still content on the back of the newspaper.]

[You flip through the newspaper, and it lists the cost of eye transplant surgery...]

[The cost of transplanting sophisticated eyeballs, a pair is worth 1,500 spiritual points.]

[The cost of transplanting sophisticated eyeballs, a pair is worth 2500 Spirit.]

……

[Epic eye transplant cost, a pair is worth 50,000 souls.]

[The cost of legendary eye transplantation, a pair is worth 250,000 souls.]

The cost of surgical transplantation alone is worth half of the value of the eyeball.

Lin Xun once again took back his two-word evaluation of Bennett.

Change it to a four-character evaluation, it’s so shameful!

[‘Bennett’ shakes his finger, gesturing for you to look at the corner of the newspaper again.]

[You look at the corner of the newspaper, where new content is clearly marked.]

[The outside world has been covered by the 'knowledge barrier'. If you want to leave the clinic, you must take a special carriage. Each time you use the carriage, you need to pay 1,000 spiritual points.]

Lin Xun saw that anger arose in his heart, and evil grew in his courage.

With a total of more than 30,000 spiritual beings, how can I withstand Bennett’s blackmail?

He wished he could possess the earth giant's body immediately and beat this black-hearted profiteer to death with a stick!
