Chapter 173 Am I wanted by the circus? ! (Three-in-one please vote!)
Mrs. Caroline's new home.
"How's it going, Maggie?"
Chen Lun stood beside the sofa in the living room and asked.
Mrs. Caroline was sitting on the sofa, looking a little nervous.
She trusted Chen Lun very much and accepted the examination of this "young female doctor", but she did not know that the plague was lurking in her and Mr. Taote's bodies.
Maggie had just come down from upstairs to check Mr. Totter. She moved a chair and sat in front of her, doing some checks on him... Of course, in the process, she quietly used her extraordinary power. .
After a while.
"No problem!"
Maggie gathered her things and stood up.
She turned around, lowered her head and came to Chen Lun's side and whispered:
"The disease has not yet taken shape. You only need to take the medicine I concocted to cure it..."
Chen Lun nodded.
"Mrs. Caroline, you are in excellent health."
He turned to Mrs. Caroline and smiled.
"I'm sorry that I brought Dr. Maggie to visit today. Because I really don't trust the hospitals in the outer city, where many accidents often occur due to the 'urine bath plan' and 'bloodletting therapy'."
Mrs. Caroline was very happy when she heard Chen Lun's words.
"Little Jack, it's nothing, it's all your concern...and I like the excitement very much. If you have time, you can bring more people here, and I will cook some delicious food for you."
She covered her mouth and chuckled twice, then enthusiastically pulled Chen Lun to sit down while she got up to make scented tea.
Although the flower shop at No. 7 Denton Street closed, she did not give up this hobby. Instead, she re-arranged flowers and potted plants in the courtyard of her new home.
Even the backyard plans to build a greenhouse to grow some special flowers.
"After these few months of observation and research, I have formulated medicines that can treat the Black Death and Yellow Fever...but there is no clue about the red dance disease. At present, the best we can do is suppress it."
Maggie took out two light blue potions and handed them to Chen Lun.
"I named this potion 'Plague Little Bane Bengbeng'. The cost will be relatively high, about ten gold pounds per pot..."
Chen Lun chose to ignore the name of the medicine given by Maggie, and encouraged him after taking it:
"Well done, I will add 100 gold pounds to your research funds when you return..."
He is happy because the circus has also mastered the treatment of this plague. Although the cost is not low, it is always good news.
Some things can be used, but they cannot be lived without.
Chen Lun suddenly thought of something again and smiled.
"Also, I have found the drug tester who promised you, and I believe you will hit it off."
"Oh yes! This is great! I have dozens of ideas, but there is no suitable opportunity to test the medicine... So when will we go back? I can't wait!"
Maggie was beyond excited.
"Be calm and don't be impatient."
Chen Lun comforted him.
At this time, Mrs. Caroline also came over carrying brewed scented tea.
Chen Lun took the tea cup and thanked him.
He drank tea and chatted with Mrs. Caroline for a while, then found an opportunity and took out the two "plague potions."
"Mrs. Caroline, this is the anti-epidemic drug developed by Dr. Maggie. It is similar to the previous candy bar, but this one is more effective..."
Chen Lun smiled and handed the potion to Mrs. Caroline.
"You and Mr. Taut each have one pill, please take it as soon as possible."
"Thank you so much, little Jack."
Mrs. Caroline looked grateful.
"I have experienced too much during this period, and I can feel the preciousness of kindness even more..."
She put down the tea cup, turned around and secretly wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief.
After a while.
Mrs. Caroline smiled sheepishly.
"Oh, by the way, little Jack, I have something for you."
She seemed to remember something and got up and went upstairs.
A few minutes later, she walked down holding a cardboard box with difficulty. Chen Lun stepped forward and helped put the carton down.
puff!
Some dust splashed up.
"Huh... these books were cleaned out when I was cleaning the attic. Although they are a bit old, they are all collections."
Mrs. Caroline patted the air gently with her handkerchief, as if this would make the dust obey.
"I know you like reading, little Jack, so I'm going to give you all these books."
"Yes, Mrs. Caroline, I didn't expect you to remember."
Chen Lun said with a smile.
"Thank you very much."
He flipped through the books in the cardboard box casually in his hand.
When his fingers touched a book that was not thick, Chen Lun was slightly startled.
I looked down and saw that the cover of the book had fallen off, revealing the yellowed title page inside. The original title and author information had been lost.
But in his mind, a prompt box popped up:
【Discover the mysterious book! Extraordinary insights "Dream Searching for the Town of Kazite" (complete)! 】
Chen Lun's eyes flashed in thought, but he quickly returned to normal, and then put the book into the blood poem ring.

Chen Lun said goodbye to Mrs. Caroline and left the apartment with Maggie.
He turned around and waved to the old woman standing at the door, and the two of them boarded the carriage.
After returning to Jack Manor.
The players waiting in the residential area came to the lobby on the first floor of the villa and found Chen Lun.
In addition to Polaris, Su Keying and Centaur, there is also a handsome young man with a beard, an iceberg woman and a lolita with twin tails.
The bearded young man is "Dongyang", the vice-president of the "Yingling Pavilion" guild brought by the centaur. The iceberg woman is "Chen Xi", the president of the "Chuxi" guild. The twin-tailed lolita has a very long ID, named " A joyful song that ends with a sad ending."
She is the number one rich woman in Su Keying's "Jack Support Group". She spends a lot of money to let Su Keying bring her to "meet" Jack and get up close and personal with the idol.
But because her ID was too long, everyone called her "Weiyin".
In the eyes of NPCs, it doesn't actually matter what the player's ID is. They will understand it in a unique way and justify it.
The three new players were not short of money. They directly exchanged gold pounds for a large amount of "Circus Contribution Points" in the form of "donation", thus obtaining the official member's token "Silver Snake Ring".
"Mr. Jack, we would like to buy something from you."
Dongyang, the vice president of Yingling Pavilion, said.
Chen Lun glanced at them and showed a charming smile.
"Of course."
bite!
The golden word [Exchange] suddenly appeared above his head.
The eyes of the six players lit up.
Among them, the ending of Lolita is simply because of Chen Lun’s smile and his eyes shining brightly.
"——Seeing him up close, he is indeed different from the one in the video. He is so handsome! (Drooling expression)"
In the chat room opened by several people alone, Wei Yin spoke.
The horseman and Dongyang looked at each other speechlessly.
"——If I spend enough, can I get Jack's personal belongings?"
The last voice continued to speak.
This time, even Polaris looked sideways.
The faces of other players were filled with question marks.
Su Keying coughed and asked Chen Lun:
"Mr. Jack, I remember you left a message in your letter saying that you would open a hidden redemption list to us official members."
"Yes."
Chen Lun smiled.
He secretly operated on the exchange panel.
In the eyes of the six players, at the end of the store catalog column, there were two more ink bottle-shaped bombs, a ticket and ten ordinary pages.
"!!!"
The players' breath froze.
Dongyang's eyes stared straight at these extraordinary knowledge, and his mouth opened slightly.
"——All paths?! All ten extraordinary sequences?! What is this? This is!"
"——When I heard Su Keying talk about it, I thought there was only one way. Unexpectedly... there are seven righteous god sequences, plus three hidden sequences, all of them!"
Chen Xi, the president of Chuxi Guild, looked surprised.
"——Too exaggerated!"
"——This means that even if you don't join the church or the official organization of extraordinary beings, you can still choose the path you want to take!"
The centaur spoke.
The players had another private exchange, because this was information that even Ma Ren, Polaris and Su Keying didn't know, which directly shocked the three new players.
They had greater doubts about Jack's identity and the circus organization. It seems that the man who is officially dubbed the "Guide of Destiny" has a more mysterious aura about him.
They set their sights back on the store list.
That ticket is called "Wonderland Admission Ticket" and the price is very high, 100 gold pounds plus 100 contribution points.
After exchanging information, the six players all knew clearly that this was the certificate to enter Jack's exclusive advanced copy "Wonderland".
"——I heard the centaurs say that the Fairyland dungeon is quite dangerous, and it is definitely not possible to fight alone... You and I are both elites of various guilds, or top individual players, so we try our best to prepare admission tickets. Then team up and write the book.”
Dongyang said in the chat room.
"——Well, the information description of the 'Wonderland Admission Ticket' clearly states that a maximum of ten people can enter, so we'd better gather ten trustworthy people, which will be safer."
the centaur added.
"——Kutoujin and Forgotten Wuji of the Divine Love Guild previously participated in the 'Operation Saving the Rotten Persimmons', but now their contribution is negative, and their favorability with the circus has dropped to disgust. I'm afraid they will have to pay a high price to participate in the dungeon. ”
Polaris spoke.
"——The fool also participated in the operation as a leader. It should be difficult to join the circus now."
Send a text message in the morning and evening.
Honey Jiubao accepted the employment of Shen Ai without consulting her, the president, which made her feel a little uncomfortable.
But after all, he is the internal beta cadre of his guild and the only transcendent player in the guild. Chen Xi still wants Honey Cheat to participate in the advanced copy.
"Mr. Jack, can Honey Cunt join the circus?"
Chen Xi turned to Chen Lun and asked.
Everyone also looked at it.
They immediately saw Mr. Jack's face turn cold.
"The four strangers, Honey Jihanbao, Gan Ziwen, Dog-headed Jin and Forgotten Wuji, were originally the warriors I valued, but they chose to disobey the circus's pursuit order and fight against the organization."
The black-haired young man leaned on the sofa and placed his hands gently on his knees.
"Must be severely punished!"
Chen Xi's hope was dashed and she couldn't help but frown slightly.
Others also sighed secretly.
This is the price. I don’t know if it’s stupid to give up such a good opportunity for a little money.
Chen Lun took their expressions into his eyes and smiled to himself.
As a veteran player, how could he not understand players' peeing habits. He never had the naive notion that players would be loyal to the circus.
What is the fourth natural disaster?
It is a group of players full of uncertainty. They are profit-driven creatures, strong-willed creatures, and destructive creatures bursting with curiosity, but they will never be loyal creatures.
All you need is to use them as tools for development and improvement.
He doesn't feel angry about players who break the rules, but is happy about them. Because this can justifiably be used as a "chicken" to establish rules and kill it to scare the monkeys!
On the premise that they have strong appeal, they cooperate with official means to deter them, and then increase their efforts to extract their value.
Such punishment is far more in line with one's own interests than kicking him away.
As long as the players still want something from themselves and the circus, no matter how "exploited" they are, they will regard this result as just punishment and be happy with it.
Even lucky, because they can still stay in the circus.
Everyone discussed in the chat room whether they should contact some reliable experts and invite them to come to Amber City to gather a team of ten people.
But because the journey is too long, this matter may take a long time and seriously delay their development.
At this moment, Jack spoke:
"You are the first batch of strangers accepted by the circus, so I choose to give Kotou Jin and Wang Wuji a chance. This is also the only mercy..."
He lowered the brim of his hat.
"Of course there is a price to pay. The two of them will be reduced to 'peripheral members', their income will be reduced, and the price of purchasing organizational services will be higher.
As for Gan Ziwen and Honey Juice, they will be included in the "Circus Hunt Order"! ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions changed again.
Chen Xi's pupils shrank.
She immediately sent a text message, asking the honey fool to leave Amber City immediately.
The idiot was a little confused after receiving the text message, and then saw the president telling him about the fatwa.
"——I'm wanted by the circus?! (crying emoticon)"
The sweet fool wants to cry but has no tears.
She let out a long sigh, and finally obeyed Chairman Chen Xi's warning and immediately headed to the train station.
"If I had known better, I wouldn't have accepted the offer from the God's Love Guild!"
She gritted her teeth and regretted it endlessly.
As for Gan Ziwen, he still doesn’t know that he has been put on the circus’s fatwa list.

"Mr. Jack, I need ten bombs, five each of red and blue... The contribution is not enough for the time being, so I choose to use gold pounds instead."
Vice President Dongyang said.
The price of both red and blue ink bombs is the same, priced at 30 gold pounds, plus 10 contribution points.
Their cost, currently under Connie's control, has been reduced to about 4 gold pounds.
"In addition, I need one hundred muskets and matching bullets, plus twenty pairs of mechanical gloves, ten each of three-color potions, and one hundred packets of anti-epidemic candy..."
Chen Lun nodded with a smile.
But he was muttering in his heart, Yingling Pavilion is indeed one of the three major guilds, and they have managed to collect so much money in such a short period of time.
The total items purchased by Dongyang cost more than 500 gold pounds.
Next, Chen Xi, the president of Chuxi Guild, also started her big purchase.
The needs were similar to those of Dongyang, but Chenxi bought more mechanical gloves and matching fuel blocks, and only six bombs, three red and blue each.
It also costs more than 500 gold pounds.
Including the number of gold pounds donated by the two in order to join the circus, Chen Lundan earned more than 1,500 gold pounds from them.
'The money from the consortium is easy to make...these days of hard work have finally paid off. ’
Chen Lun thought to himself.
In fact, Dongyang and Chenxi also sighed secretly. In order to raise these funds in a short period of time, the guild spent a huge amount of manpower and material resources.
Because the amount is too large, and in the early stages of public beta, running the map is very expensive, and the exchange ratio of the funds injected in reality is seriously distorted. It often takes more money to exchange for the original number of gold pounds.
Even so, the money in their hands is not enough to purchase extraordinary knowledge.
So they had no choice but to buy some circus specialties first to add strength to the guild. At the same time, he reported it to the consortium and urged to raise gold pounds to purchase extraordinary knowledge.
Jack had ten pieces of introductory sequence information, which were also submitted by them. I believe that the consortium behind it will increase investment and support all their activities in the circus.
"The items you purchased will be handed over to Connie, the housekeeper, and temporarily stored in the manor warehouse..."
Chen Lun said.
Because the two of them bought too many things, Chen Lun was willing to give this "big customer" a little convenience, allowing them to transport the goods in several batches.
"Thank you for taking care of me, Mr. Jack."
Dongyang and Chenxi saluted him.
One person took off his hat and caressed his chest, while another person lifted his skirt and bent his knees.
Guilds have detailed information on these etiquette, allowing them to better integrate into the game world.
Chen Lun responded with a smile.
It can be seen that both of them bought these things for the guild, so it is no wonder that they are so generous. After all, there are really very few mysterious merchants known to players, and none of them can compare to the circus.
Those weapons, bombs, potions and other items, no matter in terms of quality or quantity, this is the only one!
And Jack’s hidden store here is even more unique.
At this stage, apart from him, there is no other place where you can directly exchange money for extraordinary knowledge. There is no such store beyond this village.
Scorpion Baba is the only one.
The horseman did not choose to exchange. He seemed to have discussed it with Vice President Dongyang and made withdrawals from the items he had just purchased.
This is his benefit as a beta cadre.
As for Fu Loli Weiyin, she just casually looked at the items on the store page, and then bought a few copies of them all, and even bought one for Su Keying.
The deep love for Jimei can be seen from this.
The tail sound cost about 200 gold pounds.
As for Polaris, he only bought a little ammunition and fuel cubes, and then two packs of anti-epidemic candy bars.
The total consumption is 60 silver coins.
It's not that he doesn't want to buy the things on the exchange list, it's just that he can't afford them.
He restrained his strong desire and stared at the last page of the store list, the hidden path "Destiny Faction" among the ten pieces of extraordinary knowledge.
Polaris determined in his heart that Jack, the "Guide of Destiny", took this sequence path, so he believed that this sequence had a bright future!
He secretly gritted his teeth and told himself that he couldn't spend money randomly and had to save money to buy it!
Only in this way can we not fall behind and be on the same level as the elite players around us.
Only in this way can he go further and fulfill his dream.

Shortly after six players left.
Kotoujin and Forgotten Wuji returned to Jack Manor again.
The centaur informed them in advance, and the two of them were thankful that they were not kicked out of the circus.
"——Fortunately, we released the water at that time and didn't kill any of Jack's men... Otherwise, we would be wanted like Gan Ziwen and Honey Juice."
The dog-headed golden man said with lingering fear.
"——We haven't been reduced to 'peripheral members'... Now the hidden store is not open to us, let alone extraordinary knowledge, we can't even buy bombs and tickets to Wonderland."
Forgot to reply.
"..."
"..."
The two stood at the door of the manor and looked at each other.
"——But we sacrificed for the guild, the boss of the world submitted the application, and now we have money!"
"——Well, I still can't buy extraordinary knowledge, bombs and tickets to Wonderland."
Forgotten Wuji shrugged.
Goutou Jin was startled and let out a long sigh.
"——Let's see what Jack says. If it doesn't work, let's spend money to buy contribution points and try to see if we can regain the qualifications of 'official members'."
"——Yeah, but the circus' favorability rating is still disgusting."
"——Shut up! Don't mention the pot! Can't you be more optimistic?!"
When the two entered the gate, they were a little nervous.
Because they were no longer official members, they were afraid that the two circus servants who were guarding the door would kill them with one knife.
Fortunately, the janitor only gave them a cold glance.
Come to the lobby on the first floor of the villa.
Goudou Jin and Wang Wangwuji saw the familiar gentleman in black hat sitting on the sofa. Beside him, there was a woman with messy hair.
She seemed to be looking at herself with a fiery gaze. It's like a butcher, looking at a good piece of beef and preparing how to cut it.
After investigation, like other circus officials, all the horizontal lines were unknown, as well as the red "fatal" warning.
Above her head, the ID reads "Sick Doctor-Maggie".
"Two warriors from a foreign land, welcome back."
Jack's familiar voice came, but it had lost its previous enthusiasm.
Nugget Jin and Wang Wuji looked a little indifferent when they saw his eyes under his hat.
My heart skipped a beat, and I knew it was because of the previous incident that caused my favorability to be too low.
"The two men originally took over the mission of the 'Circus Fatal Order', but turned around and chose to fight against the Fatal Order midway. This made me very disappointed."
Chen Lun shook his head and sounded lonely.
Goutou Jin swallowed, and Wang Wangwuji on the side said:
"Mr. Jack, we are very sorry for this. Is there any way we can make up for it? We will do our best!"
Chen Lun looked at them quietly.
Both of them were stunned by the dull eyes.
At this time, Mr. Jack spoke:
"Because you didn't kill your own people, I give you the only chance..."
He paused for a moment and then said:
"Of course this is an extremely difficult thing. I wonder if you are willing?"
Their eyes lit up.
There's still a chance!
[Trigger D-level mission: Fresh Beef! 】
Task description: Maggie, the circus pharmacist and medical doctor, has recently reached a bottleneck in her research on pharmaceuticals and is in urgent need of assistance from drug testers.

The process may be a little painful, but once you get used to it, it will be very comfortable.

Mission reward: Official membership of the circus.
"Yes! Of course we are willing!"
The two of them chose to take on the task without any hesitation.
But they were completely unaware of the excitement in Maggie's eyes and the smile on Mr. Jack's lips.
