C7 So That's How It Is

Lu Shan was startled when he heard the notification. Previously, he had placed over a hundred types of medicinal herbs in the Upgrade Box. But he had never heard of such a prompt before! This time, however, he had placed an orange juice inside. Unexpectedly, a prompt had appeared.

Could it be that those over a hundred medicinal herbs could not be used to concoct medicine, and this orange juice could be used?

At this time, the siren had already arrived at the entrance of the night market. Lu Shan did not have time to think, and hurriedly went into an intersection by the side, quickly leaving this place.

After passing through two streets in a row, Lu Shan finally stopped a taxi. On the way back to the hotel, he suddenly opened his aperture.

It seemed that his previous thoughts were a bit mistaken!

After he received this task to make medicine, he had always thought that he had to use medicinal herbs to make medicine! However, he forgot that this Upgrade Box came from the game world.

And in the game world, there weren't that many medicinal herbs. The most basic medicines were usually only two types, red medicine and blue medicine.

Red medicine was also called Life Potion, and it could increase the number of health points players had. It could immediately heal a person's injuries.

The blue medicine was also called a psychotropic drug. It could increase a player's mental strength. Many of the big moves in the game required the player's mental strength to be consumed. If a person did not have mental strength, it would be the same as losing the ability to fight back.

Lu Shan still remembered that in the game of conquering the world, he could pick some wild fruits in many places in the wilderness. These wild fruits were placed in the players' backpacks. A person could directly consume them after being injured. They could recover health points in small amounts.

If a person accumulated a large amount of wild fruits, he could give them to 'Pharmacist Hee'. If he spent a small amount of silver, he would be able to exchange them for some Life Potion.

There was such a setting in the game. Because picking wild fruits was too troublesome, and these wild fruits could only be exchanged for the lowest level Life Potion, no one wasted any time.

Looking at it this way, the Life Potion in the game was actually made from wild fruits! The game did not specify what kind of wild fruit it was. But now it seemed that Lu Shan only needed to use fruits to experiment and he would definitely be able to find the correct formula!

After figuring this out, Lu Shan could not help but feel excited. He hurriedly called the driver to immediately turn around and look for a fresh supermarket that was not closed yet.

Unfortunately, it was almost midnight by now. Some small supermarket that sold cigarettes, wine, and groceries opened their doors, but the fresh supermarket that sold fruits and vegetables were all tightly shut.

Helpless, Lu Shan could only return to the small inn first and prepare to talk tomorrow. The time limit for this mission was 24 hours. As long as he could find the right direction, he would have time to study it tomorrow.

The night passed. Lu Shan checked out immediately after dawn. He carried his travel bag to a nearby morning market.

There were all kinds of vegetables, fruits, and snacks sold in the morning market. After Lu Shan ate randomly, he looked at the fruit stalls.

Because there were too many people on the morning market, it was naturally inconvenient for Lu Shan to put the fruits he bought into the Upgrade Box to experiment. He had to buy some first, then find a place with no one around and slowly explore.

It was currently summer, and it was also the time for tropical fruits to harvest. Thus, there were quite a number of varieties of fruits sold in the market. Even though Lu Shan only bought one or two fruits of each type, all the fruits were still filled with two big bags. Even so, there were still many types of fruits that he didn't buy at all!

Lu Shan estimated that if he bought all kinds of fruits, he would have to hire a car. So for the time being, he could only stop buying. Perhaps the fruits in his hands were enough for him to make that low level Life Potion!

Early in the morning, other than a lot of people in the morning market, the other streets were all very deserted. Lu Shan walked for a while with two big bags of fruits in his hands before stopping in a quiet corner.

Looking left and right and seeing that there was no one around, Lu Shan tried to take out the fruits one by one and place them into the Upgrade Box in turns.

Lu Shan put all the fruits into the Upgrade Box and tried them one by one. However, the system did not give a prompt. He was stunned!

Could it be that his luck was so bad?

Lu Shan estimated that if he wanted to make the Life Potion, he would need at least four to five fruits. Even if his luck was bad, he would not be unable to find a suitable fruit even after trying more than ten different fruits!

He looked again at the cup of orange juice that was still in the middle of the Upgrade Box and suddenly thought of something.

Could it be that these fruits were not squeezed into juice, so the system did not prompt him?

Thinking of this, Lu Shan first took out the cup of orange juice, and then put a whole orange inside.

This time, the system's prompt also didn't ring. When he put the glass of orange juice back in, the same notification sounded again.

So that's how it is!
