Chapter 401: Chapter 244: A Very Unique Thing (Second Update)_1
The power of [Stimulation] was stronger than imagined.
After consecutive devastation by Liuzi and Xiemen Waidao, Lubi successfully evolved into a Wooden Rabbit.
A pile of books was infused into his mind overnight, making him a walking medical spellbook, capable of diagnosing whether someone was ill or not after a set process of inspection, smelling. listening, and questioning.
Dumbfounded, Lubi was led to the kitten’s side, and after a quick diagnosis, he immediately said, “Shadow disease, one bottle of shadow spirit medicine per week can alleviate it.”
Shadow disease was unique to this place; patients contaminated by Shadows would develop various potential symptoms, and the only effective treatment was one bottle of shadow spirit medicine per week.
However, the price of this thing was expensive, beyond what an ordinary family could afford; even someone as influential as Gray Bear in the prison couldn’t manage it.
After the diagnosis, Lubi was sent to the side to recover his spirit, estimated to take about seven days, which would be just in time for him to go out and take the test.
Upon hearing this news, Gray Bear fell silent for a long while, then looked at Liuzi and Xiemen Waidao and said, “Thank you both. I’ve decided to do something big. If it works, I won’t have to worry about shadow spirit medicine for life. If I fail, don’t you all claim to know me.”
“Brother, don’t be so extreme!” Xiemen Waidao hurriedly shouted, “We can think about other methods. Making quick money doesn’t necessarily require committing a crime!”
“But this is the only skill I have. If I had others, would I still be in this situation?”
“That’s true…”
Bringing up Gray Bear’s information, Xiemen Waidao looked at the dark green template floating in mid-air, lamenting that the other man really was talented in this line of work.
His hobby was [Rebel], and being a mafia boss was really a waste of his talent.
He was naturally cut out for crime; if [Stimulation] was used to dig out his potential and develop his talents, it could only produce a crime superstar, and then it would be hard to say whether it was a success or a failure.
However, Lubi’s success still earned the two a decent amount of points; although they were still a bit away from the next Blessing, as long as they worked a little harder, they should be able to reach it.
Looking around at the inmates, they confirmed they had really struck it rich with the big gift package.
Due to the great lack of virtue among the Yifate Law Enforcers, many who had just come here without money were sent to prison and then became inmates here.
Once their last copper coin was squeezed out, they were sent to the bottom layers to mine and to spend their miserable lives in the sunless depths below.
Many of them had their own interests and talents. After all, those who made it to Yifate from the outside world were elites in various fields, most of them were talents, but it’s a pity they ended up in this place.
But no matter, now was the time to stimulate their potential.
Backed by the mafia, the two of them started to look constantly for an inmate whose interest was [Mining].
After a day’s hard work, this inmate immediately became a fanatical mining worker, excitedly rushing to the bottom layer to mine, doing the work of five people all alone.
There were also inmates who liked cooking; after one session of stimulation, this inmate took over the prison kitchen, then sneakily helped with skimming off the top to accumulate wealth.
After educating one inmate after another, Liuzi and Xiemen Waidao gained experience, Gray Bear acquired funds, the prison reaped benefits, and the inmates discovered hidden interests and strengths within themselves; everyone ended up very happy with the win-win situation.
The inmates began to look for Liuzi and Xiemen Waidao to make appointments; all of them wanted to know what their real talents were, and the two were mythologized with many wild rumors.
They were hailed as the greatest educators of the day, come to replace the Gods in rescuing the world’s people, with even the most stubborn criminals awakening to the “good” within themselves before them.
Just one week of hard work and upon waking up, they would find they had gained a new skill, and this skill was their most favored, leaving them unable to think of anything better.
Their prison cells became as busy as a marketplace, and Liuzi and Xiemen Waidao’s treatment in prison even surpassed Gray Bear’s, as even Gray Bear became their underling, looking up to them every day.
Although the situation was very good, the two also had their own troubles.
After registering the name of the next NPC, Liuzi said with difficulty, “Right now there are ten thousand people who want to be developed. We can only educate one person per day, which means it would take thirty years to complete the list.”
“It seems we need to do something about this… How about developing others?”
“Sounds feasible.”
Xiemen Waidao’s suggestion was based on the current situation.
The game “New World” hadn’t been out for very long, and most players were just meeting the requirements to unlock the Education System, still looking for strategies.
Apart from a few who were unbearably ugly, dragged outside town by monsters to serve as military advisors, this seemed to be the only strategy so far.
And besides Liuzi and Xiemen Waidao, no other players had thought about going to prison and then gaining experience by reforming the inmates there.
Elsewhere, [Stimulation], this proactive Blessing, would be suspected of utilizing mental magic, which is generally considered intentional harm, so many players who wanted to stimulate other NPCs had to do it sneakily. Once found out, it meant a fine and then being thrown into a special prison prepared just for them.
In there, each person was in solitary confinement, just to prevent them from mentally controlling others, likely meaning they would never get out in their lifetime, which is why it was also mockingly called Account Cancellation Prison.
