Poseidon in Arknights

Although there is a so-called storage time limit, in Yuuki's opinion, this problem can be completely solved by mass refining, which is what Yuuki has done before.

The reason is that it requires a lot of magic power. Basically, only legendary mages can master it in large quantities there. In that world, they have more important work and it's impossible for them to do such a thing.

As for Yuuki, she couldn't understand the feeling of consuming a lot of magic power.

Upon hearing Yuuki's words, Swire pondered for a moment before replying, "Some kind of special Originium Arts?"

"Pretty much. In short, for me, the only cost of this kind of thing is time; there's no need for it to be so expensive."

"Then let's base it on time cost and process cost..."

Before Swire could finish speaking, Yuuki gave a price: "1000 each is fine, there's no need to be so expensive, just consider it as supporting Lungmen's security cause."

Anyway, this kind of thing is just a matter of freeing up a hand for Xiyue. She can even study it later to see if she can use her water illusion body to make this thing and directly realize automated production.

"Hey, it's so cheap, is that okay?"

Xi Yue spread her hands: "When I was providing medical care in the slums, I got this for free."

"Oh, okay? Shall we exchange phone numbers?"

"Ok."

————Penguin Logistics————

"Alright, you two, stop nagging." Xi Yue tapped the two of them on the head speechlessly, and they both winced and stepped back in pain.

"The cost of this kind of thing is almost zero for me, it's not right to rip people off like this."

After hearing what Yuuki said, the two looked at each other and Croissant spoke first: "That's fifty thousand, and it's not fifty thousand for one time, but fifty thousand for one potion."

Exusiai chimed in, "Yeah, yeah, if we sell more, I can buy a gun."

"A gun?" Xi Yue's gaze shifted, she opened the system shop, browsed around for a while, and then nodded.

'It seems a bit pricey. I can give it to you as a gift later when we're closer, or for your birthday. Anyway, I can customize it for local tastes, so nothing bad will happen.'

"Money is just a number to me, and this thing is really cheap to make. I would feel guilty taking more."

If you really want to know the cost, it's roughly just tap water that you can get anywhere, a jar, and some test tubes. In Lungmen dollars, the total cost is no more than 20 yuan.

One jar of liquid can yield approximately 30 vials of potion. Even if we calculate based on the agreed price of 1000 LMD per vial, this jar would be worth 30,000 LMD, which is 1500 times the cost.

This level of profit is already outrageous. If we consider the price Swire initially proposed, which was 50,000 per potion, then that level of profit is already beyond outrageous.

Seeing that Xiyue had already said that, the two of them didn't say anything more. They shrugged at each other. They weren't really saying these things because they were greedy for money, although that was true at first.

The price of 50,000 for that potion did temporarily blind them, but only for a short time. Right now, Xiyue is just trying to understand the price of that potion.

Anyway, they had never heard of any potion that could regenerate flesh and blood, restore nerves, or even restore organs. Some magical spells might be able to do that, but the performers of those spells would also charge exorbitant fees.

Croissant stroked her chin: "Xiyue, you keep emphasizing that the cost is very low, I'd really like to know just how low?"

Xi Yue took a water jug ​​out of her clothes, and made a "two" gesture with her other hand.

"Twenty thousand Lungmen Dollars?" Croissant looked at the water jar and estimated that this jar could make about 30 test tubes, based on the test tubes shown earlier.

"A net profit of ten thousand? Considering the time cost, it does seem pretty good."

Then Croissant saw Yuuki shaking her head, paused for a moment, and realized that the cost might be lower than she had imagined: "2000 LMD? That's a huge profit!"

Yuzuki smiled and shook her head: "The actual cost is much lower than you think. Even including the cost of the test tubes and this water tank, it's only 20 Lungmen Dollars."

"What?!" Croissant was stunned when she heard Yuuki's price. "20 LMD! You mean that magical potion only costs 20 LMD to make a whole jar?!"

Yuzuki nodded. Seeing Yuzuki nod, Croissant was somewhat disillusioned. That kind of potion that would be snapped up outside was only 20 Lungmen Dollars!

"So, the profit of 1000 LMD per potion already makes me uneasy."

Yu Yue watched as the croissant lay on the ground, gesturing with its fingers as if calculating.

Exusiai, who was also somewhat disillusioned, sat on the ground with Croissant, fiddling with her fingers.

Texas, who was standing nearby, was somewhat surprised, but at least she didn't react like the two who were already lying on the ground.

"It's practically a risk-free business."

Xi Yue nodded: "Pretty much. If we didn't charge any money at all, there would be problems, but charging a high price with such low costs makes me feel uneasy."

"I see."

"Alright, you two, stop pretending to be tough guys. You're all pretty tired today. Even though we didn't fight, you've been up all night. You should get some sleep, or you won't be able to get up tomorrow."

Exusiai and Croissant, who were lying on the ground pretending to be shrimp, stopped pretending after hearing Yuuki's words. They stood up and went straight back to their room. It seemed that they still needed time to recover from the impact Yuuki had had on them.

Looking at the two of them, Xi Yue shook her head: "Should I not have said it?"

Texas bit off the Pocky stick in her mouth: "Ignore them. They're just temporarily overheated. They're all broke, money-grubbers, and quite sensitive to money."

"Ahhh~" Red, who was hugging Yuuki's legs, made a sleepy sound.

"Oh, it's already this late, Hong, go to sleep." Xu Yue rubbed Hong's head.

"Hong is very excited, so she doesn't want to sleep, but it's time to go to bed."

Yuuki nodded, seemingly excited about the hunt, but this conflicted with the biological clock that Yuuki had helped Hong develop.

So I've ended up in this state now, yawning and feeling sleepy, but unable to fall asleep.

"Go to sleep, Mom is also quite tired today."

Texas asked with concern, "I heard from them that you've been pinching the bridge of your nose all day. Is your eye sore?"

"Even if I were to keep an eye on ten people, I would get tired."

"Ten?" Texas paused for a moment, then seemed to realize something. "Yuzuki, have you been watching us the whole time?"

"After all, the other side is a dangerous individual carrying a bomb. As a doctor, I have to ensure everyone's safety, so I've been keeping an eye on things. However, watching ten people running around and changing rapidly at the same time is still a bit dizzying."

"Thanks for your hard work."

"You'll be fine after a rest. You're probably just not used to it yet. By the way, how much was your commission this time?"

Texas pulled out her phone from her pocket: "Red and I will take 100,000. You didn't participate in the battle directly, so you'll split the rest equally, which will be about 50,000 each."

"I was just slacking off, there's no need for me to split the profits equally."

"Medical support, backup support, uh, and the backup defenses you made, which others may not know about, are honestly not enough."

Xi Yue smiled and said, "If you don't even fulfill your responsibilities, then you're too cheap. I can't protect everyone, but at least I should take the ones I can protect seriously."

'I feel like your responsibilities include too many things that a medical operator shouldn't be doing.'

Yuuki noticed Texas's strange look, but couldn't figure out what she was thinking.

If you can't figure it out, then stop thinking about it. Yu Yue squatted down and picked up Hong: "I'm taking Hong to rest first. Go to sleep early, don't stay up too late, Texas."

Texas saw Yuuki's retreating figure and couldn't help but ask, "How did you feel about today's killing... mission?"

Xi Yue stopped and turned around with a smile: "I am a doctor, and I only show mercy to those I am responsible for."

"More importantly, I am not a saint. Even I have times when I pick up a bow and arrow."

After saying that, Yuuki carried Hong back to her room, helped Hong take off her blood-stained clothes, summoned a water ball next to her, and then threw it in.

"Mom, Hong, I can't sleep." Hong hugged Xiyue's arm and swayed back and forth.

"Close your eyes, and you'll fall asleep soon." Xi Yue patted Hong's head.

'Mmm~' Hong obediently closed her eyes.

"Goodnight, Hong." Xi Yue got up, opened the door, and prepared to leave. Just before leaving the room, she paused slightly, then gently closed the door.

In the dark room, a gentle breeze seemed to be blowing, and in the sound of the wind, it was as if the sound of ocean waves could be heard.

"Playing some lullaby might help, right? I used to use the sound of ocean waves to help me sleep; it should work here too."

Back in the corridor, Yuuki looked at the now darkened hall and said, "Texas is resting now, huh? Hmm~ I'm really tired today, I'll go rest too."

————Guards Bureau————

In contrast to Penguin Logistics, where everyone had gone to rest, the security bureau was brightly lit.

Hoshiguma, carrying his triangular shield, pushed open the office door and said, "Old Chen, those bombs have been safely stored and are properly secured."

Chen took a sip of coffee and nodded: "Thank you for your hard work, Hoshiguma."

"It's alright, we don't know who provided them with so many bombs anyway."

The office door was pushed open again, and Swire came in: "Regarding this, we can only wait for the brothers in the intelligence department to investigate more carefully."

“That makes sense…” Chen pinched the bridge of his nose and glanced at Swire who had come in. “What were you doing just now? I don’t think I saw you during the celebration.”

“I went to discuss some business and picked up a report while I was there.” Swire placed the report on the table. “A medical report.”

"Is someone injured?" Chen glanced at the medical report on the table. "I haven't received any relevant reports."

"It used to exist, but it doesn't anymore."

"What do you mean?"

"It would be better to let the person involved speak about this," Swire said, beckoning to the door. "Come in."

"Inspector Chen, this is Li Jian from the Covert Operations Team." The one who came in was the same officer who had drunk the drug during the battle.

He recounted in detail the changes that occurred after his previous injury and the medication, as well as the doctor's diagnosis.

"I'm sorry, the potion's effective period has expired, so I can't give a direct demonstration to the superintendent." Li Jian took out the completely ash-colored potion from his pocket.

"So, Swire, did you go to talk to that Yuuki about this?"

Swire nodded: "The effects of the medicine are very obvious, and there are no other side effects for the time being. In critical situations, its use will greatly reduce our casualty rate."

"Yes, indeed, it's a very magical and effective medicine, but it probably won't be cheap, given the bureau's limited funds." Chen nodded repeatedly upon hearing Swire's words, but then remembered the bureau's meager funds, making the matter somewhat difficult.

Although she understood Swire's financial resources, this was an internal matter and Swire shouldn't have to pay for it.

"The price is incredibly cheap, almost ridiculously cheap. This medicine only costs 1000 per vial, and it used to be distributed for free. No wonder that doctor believed in it!"

Chapter 33: Requiem Night (Part 1)

"Is this the place?" The silver-haired hunter stood on the wilderness, looking up at the enormous mobile city before him. "The smell of the sea."

"Is this what attracted me? Why does the smell of the sea almost permeate the entire city?" Skadi gazed at the brightly lit city before her.

Skadi frowned. Although the scent of the ocean was so faint as to be almost undetectable, it had been there ever since the hunt for the sea god.

Skadi was extremely sensitive to the smell of the sea. It was precisely because of this that Skadi was able to find several deep-sea churches that had ventured inland.
