The Dimensional Book of Collapse

After hearing what Daxier said, Sambo immediately pretended to be innocent.
However, Qin Mo didn't care about the conversation between the two and said, "Then do you know when the Starry Sky Train will come here?"
"Brother, you are embarrassing me, Old Sambo. At most, I am doing Beloberg's business and reselling some ancient relics. How can I know about things outside this planet?"
"But didn't Uncle Sambo know about the intergalactic star train?"
Xiao Xier at the side also asked.
"Miss Xi'er, Uncle Sambo only knows about this matter from old documents."
"literature?"
"correct."
Sambo nodded with a smile: "I have excavated so many ancient relics, so it is normal to find some ancient documents. Hundreds of years ago, this planet was often visited by aliens, and the Star Train must have been one of them."
"But now, the cold wave has blocked Beloberg, and we have completely lost the means of contact with the outside world."
"Really? Then there's nothing we can do. We can only wait for the Star Train to arrive here."
It’s not that Qin Mo has not thought about going into the universe to search for it himself, but on the one hand, he doesn’t have the ability to do so, and Beloberg probably doesn’t have that ability either. After all, they don’t even have the means to contact the outside world.
The system has placed itself here, just like the previous mission, which means that the way to complete the mission must be nearby.
"Are you done talking?"
At this time, Natasha walked over and looked at the pile of Winter City shields piled on the ground.
"It's better to collect these Winter City shields as soon as possible. This is a clinic, not an exchange."
"Okay, Dr. Natasha, I'll clean it up right away."
Sambo immediately squatted down and put the Winter City Shields on the ground one by one into the box he had just found.
"Qin Mo, what was that thing you just had? How did you fit so many things in it?"
Watching Sambo counting the money, Daxier couldn't suppress her curiosity and asked.
"Well, it's just a storage space that allows me to carry all my belongings with me."
Qin Mo chose to tell a half-truth. The storage space was true, but it was not about that small bag.
Qin Mo just projected a small bag and then opened the exit of the king's treasure in the bag.
"There are actually such things. Qin Mo, are you from another planet too?"
After having a general understanding of the worldview of this world, Qin Mo dared to say a little more.
"I guess so, but there's something wrong with the way I travel. I will randomly appear in any location on another planet."
"I see."
Having seen so many strange things, Daxier no longer doubted anything.
"Speak of it."
Qin Mo asked, "I wanted to ask just now, but I thought that Sangbo would raise the price, so I didn't ask. What is the pioneering star god you just mentioned?"
"I don't know either. It should be the Star God in charge of development."
"What is a Star God?"
"Hmm? Don't you know what a Star God is?"
Qin Mo shook his head.
"Even I know that it is the power of Klipper, the star god that Beloberg believes in, that has allowed Beloberg to survive in this cold wave until now. However... even the power of the Amber King cannot save the world."
Chapter 26: The Special Medicine in the Lower City
Unlike idle people like Qin Mo and Xiao Xier, Natasha, Da Xier and even Sambo all have their own work to do.
The pace of work in the Lower City is very fast, and Da Xier cannot spare much time to accompany Qin Mo and the others. The public security in the large mining area cannot be maintained without Da Xier.
"The Underworld Fire is responsible for maintaining law and order in the mining area in the Lower City and ensuring the safety of the miners. In recent years, the Rift has eroded many mineral veins, making it impossible to mine the ores there. Many people have become wanderers. Many of those wanderers have come to our mining area to cause trouble and come into conflict with the miners. Mining is the only source of income underground. If bloodshed occurs due to a conflict, it will be difficult to survive underground."
Daxier introduced her main job to the two of them.
After everyone else was busy, Qin Mo and Xiao Xier started to have nothing to do.
There is still no clue about the star core, and the Star Train can only wait.
"Mr. Qin Mo, are you busy now?"
After a while, Natasha came over.
"Nothing for now. After all, I have no idea about either of them."
Qin Mo shrugged.
"Can you do me a favor?"
"What help? If I can help."
Natasha took out a notebook and Qin Mo saw her open it. There were densely packed words on it. Relying on his excellent dynamic vision, Qin Mo saw that it recorded the patient's condition. Soon, Natasha turned to the page she was looking for.
"These patients are the ones that Daxier didn't tell the reason for when she asked them before. I would like to ask you to help ask them again."
"Why? Even Dashier can't ask, and no one knows us in this underground."
Natasha shook her head: "It is precisely because no one knows you that it is more likely to be asked, because those people know that they know Daxier."
"Um, Sister Natasha, won't it be exposed if I'm here?"
Xiao Xier at the side asked.
"Don't worry, Xiao Xi'er, although you look similar to Da Xi'er, your personalities are very different, so basically no one will pay attention to you."
What Natasha said was indeed right. Basically, everyone who met them now did not realize at first that the two Xiers were very similar. Most of them only reacted after hearing Xier’s self-introduction.
"In that case, we'll help you out. We're pretty free for now anyway."
"Thank you so much."
"You're very polite, Dr. Natasha. But I can't guarantee that I can find out why he didn't come."
Natasha shook her head. "If you really can't find out, then there's nothing you can do. I'm just a doctor after all. If the patient is reluctant to see a doctor, there's nothing I can do. I'm just doing my duty as a doctor."
"As for the reward..."
"No need for compensation. Just help us keep an eye out for news about the Star Core and the Star Train."
Natasha said with some embarrassment: "Is this enough? I also heard your previous conversation. To be honest, these are just ordinary patients here, and it is probably difficult to receive relevant news in the lower city."
"It's okay. Doctor Natasha is also from Dihuo, so she should have a lot of information channels."
"How did you tell?"
Natasha did not show any nervousness about Qin Mo's sudden exposure, but asked with some curiosity.
Qin Mo pointed at the red ribbon on Natasha's arm and said, "I noticed that Da Xier also had one on her arm. Then I noticed that this red ribbon seems to be more than just a decoration. In the mining area before, there were also people wearing red ribbons who seemed to be maintaining law and order."
Natasha looked at her ribbon and nodded: "I didn't expect you to be so observant. Yes, I am also a member of the Underground Fire, but my main responsibility is to take care of the wounded. I don't usually participate in the task of maintaining law and order."
"I'll keep an eye out for you, but don't get your hopes up."
"That's enough, thank you Doctor Natasha."
Qin Mo didn't think about getting rid of Dr. Natasha at first, but after realizing yesterday that this world might be a world above the Tree of Imaginary Numbers, he realized that Natasha and Xier must be very important characters.
As for the leader Oleg that Xier mentioned, it’s not that he is not important, but if this is a game of the Mi family, the favorability of these two well-known characters will definitely be very useful.
Moreover, although Natasha cannot be said to be a member of the protagonist group in the game of Honkai Impact 3rd, she is also an important character. And judging from the character positioning of Honkai Impact 3rd, although Natasha cannot be said to be a good person, she is definitely not a bad person either.
After accepting Natasha's commission, Qin Mo took Xier to the so-called patient's home.
Just as Natasha said, after the other party saw Qin Mo, he saw that Qin Mo was a stranger and told Qin Mo the reason why he did not go for treatment.
"I know. It was Dr. Natasha who asked you to come. After all, no one else would pay attention to us except her."
"But Dr. Natasha is too idealistic. We simply cannot wait for a long period of treatment in this underground place. If we cannot go back to work immediately after taking the medicine, then the only thing that awaits us is death in agony on the hospital bed."
This person does have a point, but...
"But wouldn't it be more painful if it wasn't treated?"
Xier couldn't help but ask.
“So, I still miss Dr. Wah.”
"Doctor Vahe?"
This is the second time I've heard this name. The last time was from Anna.
"You don't know Dr. Wah, he came down from the upper city just to give us free medicines for the poor people in the lower city."
"Dr. Vahe's medicine doesn't cost a penny and works quickly, but there's only a small risk."
Hearing this, Qin Mo felt something was wrong.
“Is it a side effect?”
"It's about the same. Some people took Dr. Wah's medicine and recovered quickly, which is much better than the slow treatment in the clinic. Some people's condition worsened after taking the medicine."
"But compared to this risk, it is better for us miners to die in one go than to suffer through treatment and slowly wait for death."
Not knowing whether this person really thought so or was just talking nonsense, Qin Mo did not want to distinguish: "But Dr. Wah is no longer here, is he?"
"Yes, but recently, the Mutual Aid Association found the prescriptions left by Dr. Wah and started selling those special medicines at low prices."
Chapter 27: The Collapse of the Mutual Aid Society
As for behaviors that disrespect one's own life and health, all Qin Mo and Xier can do is to give advice.
Even if they tie these people up and take them to the clinic, how are the doctors supposed to treat them if the patients don't cooperate?
Qin Mo does have a way to treat it quickly. The power of the horse talisman can cure diseases, and Orario's potion can heal injuries, and both are effective immediately.
But Qin Mo couldn't stay here forever.
Don't worry about scarcity, but worry about inequality.
He couldn't just treat some of them and ignore the lives of others.
"Brother Qin Mo, the special medicine and Doctor Wah that the patient mentioned, are they..."
Xier didn't say anything else. After all, this guess was a bit too cruel. Although Xier was kind, she was neither naive nor stupid.
"It's to conduct experiments on the people who took over the city."
Qin Mo said it without hesitation.
This kind of thing is actually not difficult to guess, and it is not uncommon. After all, pie falling from the sky is not something that can be found anywhere.
If so, then this pie must have been the bait thrown by the person who threw the pie.
What they are plotting is something bigger than the pie.
When Qin Mo and Xier told Natasha the news, Natasha sighed.
"Wah, he's my brother."
A shocking truth came out of Natasha's mouth.
"He thought that human fear of cold was a disease, so he was determined to make a drug called Snow and Wind Immunity, so that people could leave Beloberg and survive in new places. What he distributed was actually the drug he used for experiments. He used the name of free distribution to let patients test its efficacy, and many patients suffered severely because of it."
Natasha shook her head. "Therefore, Oleg, the leader of the Underworld, and I exiled him from the Lower City forever. We will not allow him to come to the Lower City again."
"If you don't believe it..."
Qin Mo shook his head: "Of course we believe you, Dr. Natasha. There is no such thing as a free lunch."
Natasha smiled with some relief.
"Thank you for your trust, Qin Mo. Can I get rid of you and do you another favor?"
"You said."
"I hope you can help me find the base of the mutual aid association and destroy the batch of drugs. I think they must have found Wach's former laboratory and started selling drugs again. As a doctor, I cannot forgive their behavior of stealing money and killing people."
Natasha, who had always spoken in a gentle tone, became a little angry at the end. It was obvious that these people's behavior had touched her bottom line.
