Vientiane Throne of Civilization

Chapter 2017 Well-fed and Sleeping Soundly
Meanwhile, in the rainforest region...

Stepping off the train's grappling hook, I couldn't help but marvel at the incredible rainforest environment before me.

He had seen the forests and green spaces outside the border of Saint Laurent, and had visited every oasis outpost of their Great Zhou in the desert, but compared to the rainforest before him, it was utterly insignificant; it was a completely different world.

The jackal's appearance was extremely conspicuous. As soon as he entered the herb garden, he was pulled in front of Ye Yan by the staff.

"Throwing grappling hook?"

Out of caution, Ye Yan confirmed the other party's identity.

Looking at the disheveled human in front of him, Claw felt a little nervous for some reason, and even stammered a bit when he spoke.

"Yes, it's me."

Are you feeling unwell anywhere?

As Ye Yan spoke, she glanced at the grappling hook.

Feizhua instinctively wanted to say "it's nothing," but before he could even utter a single word, Ye Yan's voice rang out again.

"Your condition is very likely to affect the absorption and adaptation of the medication, so please answer honestly."

"..."

The grappling hook paused for a moment.

"Um, a little bit."

Moving from a dry desert region to a rainforest region was such a drastic change in climate that he did feel a little uncomfortable.

This condition is collectively known as "acclimatization sickness," but orcs have always been highly adaptable, and Flying Claw didn't think it was a big deal.

But now that Ye Yan has said that, he obediently nodded and admitted it.

Upon hearing this, Ye Yan immediately understood what was going on.

"Rest for two days first, and then observe the situation before making any decisions."

After saying that, without waiting for the grappling hook's response, he waved his hand, signaling the staff next to him to take him away.

With the development of the times, there are more and more positions in the pharmaceutical industry. Ye Yan is now the president of the Da Zhou Pharmaceutical Research Institute.

He can be simply understood as the top figure in the pharmaceutical field of Da Zhou.

It's no exaggeration to say that 70% of Da Zhou Pharmaceutical's development relies on Ye Yan, while the remaining 30% is shared equally among researchers in the pharmaceutical field.

He's incredibly busy these days. Even if Zhou Xu contacts him, he has to get straight to the point and get to the point without any pleasantries. Sometimes, Zhou Xu even has to wait a while.

During the two days of rest, Ye Yan did not restrict the grappling hook's movements; the other party could wander around whenever they wanted.

Within the Great Zhou Dynasty, the lizard people population is actually quite large. However, due to the lizard people's specific requirements for the climate in which they live, there are fewer lizard people further north and more lizard people further south.

The rainforest region is where the most lizardmen gather within the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Even with the significant increase in the human population, lizard people still make up more than 60% of the local population in rainforest regions.

Within Ceylon City, everywhere you look, there are lizardmen. This gives Flying Claw a feeling that is truly different from other cities in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

In terms of population, the only place that could give him the same feeling was probably the new district, where goblins made up the vast majority of the population.

The grappling hook, which came from the desert, finds everything new and exciting in the rainforest.

As the only orc in this area, Flying Claw undoubtedly became a prominent figure in Ceylon City for the next two days.

Wherever I go, I get stared at.

But that's about it; it shouldn't cause any major trouble.

"How has the grappling hook been doing these past few days?"

Having just finished part of her research, Ye Yan took a moment to ask a question. Her assistant quickly provided an answer...

"He has a large appetite and doesn't have any problem eating. He's also in good spirits and should be sleeping well."

Simply put, they eat well and sleep soundly; the orcs' physical fitness and adaptability are truly remarkable.

Ye Yan nodded after understanding the situation.

"Take the grappling hook to the testing site first thing tomorrow morning."

"Yes!"

The next morning, before dawn, Flying Claw woke up, and he was incredibly excited at the thought of drinking the totem potion that day.

Ye Yan arrived almost right on time.

Instead of going directly to the grappling hook, he had his assistant take the totem potion over.

After all, even Flying Claw himself didn't know what would happen after drinking the totem potion.

What if he suddenly becomes uncontrollably aggressive and goes berserk?
Ye Yan is a national treasure to the Great Zhou Dynasty, and no mistakes can be tolerated.

So he stood outside the testing area, checking the grappling hook's condition through the barbed wire fence.

The place they are using now is the training ground of the Rainforest Military Region.

Therefore, a force was also transferred from the lizardman garrison to the site as a precaution.

They had already informed Feizhua about this deployment beforehand, and Feizhua itself didn't care.

Upon reaching the grappling hook, the assistant didn't waste any words and directly handed the totem potion to the other party.

"Drink it."

With an excited heart and trembling hands, he was even a little afraid that he might accidentally drop the totem potion. He took two deep breaths to calm himself down before taking the totem potion from his assistant.

Without hesitation, he tilted his head back and drank the totem potion in one gulp.

At that moment, it felt as if a fireball had slid down his throat and into his stomach.

The drug took effect unexpectedly quickly. Feizhua felt a burning sensation in his stomach, a sharp, intense pain from the inside out, which caused his face to contort rapidly. He even wondered if he had drunk some kind of poison.

"Well"

He was still able to endure it for a moment, and didn't scream out in pain.

However, the pain gradually spread from his stomach to his whole body. The pain made him grimace uncontrollably, his hair stood on end, and he gradually got down on all fours, his whole body arching exaggeratedly. From a distance, he looked like a ferocious wild beast!

This situation made the surrounding lizardman soldiers feel tense.

It should be noted that Flying Claw's current strength has reached the peak of the Hundred Refinements Realm. In addition, the physical attributes of orcs are stronger than those of ordinary human martial artists. Once it goes out of control and goes berserk, the threat will naturally be even greater.

During this process, Ye Yan directly activated his 'Eye of Insight' to observe the situation of the grappling hook.

Although not obvious due to the cover of body hair and clothing, it could not escape the detection of the 'eye of insight'.

Ye Yan clearly saw something wriggling and crawling rapidly under the grappling hook's skin, causing it excruciating pain while simultaneously covering its entire body in the blink of an eye.

At this point, the pain was so intense that the grappling hook couldn't help but let out a low growl, or even a howl.

This state lasted for nearly ten minutes.

Just then, accompanied by a long, suppressed howl, streaks of blood-red lines lit up on the skin of the grappling hook!
At this moment, no more words are needed; the totem potion is complete! The grappling hook is complete too!!

"Ouch - ow -"
