Ming Dynasty, New Rome, and Infinite Divine Machine

"I'm here for a return visit. I helped Victoria with her treatment yesterday."

"Ah! Thank you so much! Thank you so much!" Agatha knew that this person was Victoria's savior. Victoria had been in extremely good health since last night - she even started to sleep in.

In the past, Victoria almost regarded anxiety as a habit of life, and she was almost never not anxious. However, last night, she slept soundly all night. She did not have nightmares or sleepwalking, but slept until dawn and has not woken up yet. Because it was past the usual time to get up, Agatha decided to prepare a procedure for her to get up in advance, waiting for her to use it when she came down.

"Good morning, everyone!" Suddenly, Victoria poked her head out from the attic.

"Good morning!" Zhu Ling waved at her from below.

"Doctor, you're here too! I'm telling you, I slept really well last night! I dreamed about so many things! They were all normal dreams! I didn't dream about the four towers anymore! The people in my dreams no longer sang that song! That was great! Ah!"

She exclaimed: "Even the air has the fragrance of malt."

"That's breakfast." Shangluo pointed in front of him, "Want to eat?"

"Ah, come down to eat?"

"What else?" Shangluo asked in surprise.

"I usually stay in bed. Ah! Wait, I'll come down and eat. Wait a minute, I haven't sat at the table to eat breakfast yet."

New life, new people.

Victoria was in better shape than ever before. The vitality that belonged to her age returned to her. All the old age that she had experienced before was swept away - even death itself seemed to be rejected by her at this moment.

Without any examination, Shangluo knew that last night's treatment was indeed extremely successful, and the effect was better than he had expected. Moreover, after a night, Victoria's symptoms not only did not worsen, but actually improved steadily.

Looking at Victoria who was eating steamed buns in big mouthfuls in front of him, Shangluo could see that her face was full of joy and happiness.

"Your medicine is really strong, thank you." He whispered to Zhu Ling beside him.

"No, it's your medicine. You and my brother found it together, but it's just for making the medicine. If you want to thank someone, thank yourselves."

"Is this medicine easy to make?" Shangluo asked, "Because Victoria's lesions have not actually been cleared. Like the previous treatment, it may take several more times."

"Ah! That's easy." Zhu Ling suggested, "I owe you a meal, right? Why don't we go together next time? Whenever you need treatment, just come to me for a meal."

"Great!" Victoria said excitedly, "If this is treatment, I really want to have treatment every day! But what should we eat?"

"Eat eh?" Zhu Ling was stunned for a moment. Shang Luo noticed something was wrong before her.

"I say, Victoria," Shangluo asked, "Do you remember what we had for dinner last night?"

"Last night? Ah! Yes, I think I ate pig's trotters last night. But...but I clearly ate it, why do I feel like I didn't? I clearly remember that I ate it, but it seems like I didn't. Eh eh???" Victoria was suddenly stunned, "Something is wrong, why do I do everything this morning as if it were the first time. Even brushing my teeth just now felt very novel. Hey! Shangluo, why do I feel like we are meeting for the first time?"

“Hey, hey, hey!” Shangluo hurriedly asked Zhu Ling, “Isn’t the effect of this medicine wrong? What’s going on?!”

"Well, maybe."

"It turns out that you used too much veterinary medicine!"

"You can't blame me for this. That's what the manual said so it was. So it's possible that when I rejuvenated her, I restored all her experiences to factory settings."

"Wait, it won't reset the memory to factory settings as well?"

"Ah, this shouldn't happen."

"Have you ever experimented on a dog?!"

"I used pandas for the experiment, and everything is normal."

"Wait. Longlong, can you talk?"

"Yes, but I usually think he can't talk. From his behavior, Longlong is normal and very happy."

"Of course! If you don't talk to him, of course you can't tell anything. This is really exciting. Can this thing even refresh the brain? I want to drink Coke and then eat one, and then keep eating and feel good."

"Shangluo." Zhu Ling said seriously, "I think there seems to be something wrong. You said before that Victoria was 'dying'? But strictly speaking, if this is irreversible, her condition should not get better even if it does not worsen, but should only eliminate some of the symptoms. Is this drug too strong?"

"I think we need to experiment with its use on humans some more. Are you experimenting with it somewhere else now?"

"My brother is still doing pharmacology experiments. So, he asked me to do some animal experiments. Ah, I didn't say that yours were experimental animals, really not."

"Well, the experiment has been done anyway." Shangluo looked at Victoria next to him, "From the current point of view, it is probably fine. If it is confirmed that there is no problem, this treatment can continue. Victoria's condition is very serious. It has reached the point where we have to give it a try even if it means testing drugs."

"I agree." Ms. Agatha nodded. "If there are any more experiments like this, please let Lady Victoria participate."

"So, Victoria," Zhu Ling asked her, "are you willing? I still want to hear your own opinion."

"I do?"

Chapter 1268 The First Patient

Victoria became Zhu Ling's first human patient.

Shangluo didn't know whether this was something worth being happy about. If it were him, he would probably prefer Zhu Xianxun to personally prepare the medicine and treat the patient.

However, considering that Zhu Xianxun has been busy with work recently and is probably not free, there is no one more suitable to be responsible for the treatment plan except Zhu Ling.

"Ahaha~ Next time I'll add a little soda water and a little lemon juice."

"Is this in the recipe???" Shangluo asked in surprise, "I've seen the recipe, and I don't remember these small ingredients."

"Wouldn't a special edition like this be more palatable?"

"The normal one is fine, thank you! Please believe in human initiative. This stuff is not so bad that I need to add some toppings to drink it."

"Well, I will just trust in the courage of mankind. I believe that our people can solve the problem."

"Don't make it sound like you're starting a Wandering Earth plan. Just prepare the medicine normally and give it to her normally."

"Oh, by the way," she asked Victoria, "how long are you going to stay here?"

"It depends on when Shangluo goes to Rome."

"Shangluo! Please don't go to Rome in your life! She is my first patient."

"The patient needs to be discharged. Do you still want to keep her in the hospital to generate income? She is not a capybara in the zoo."

"Ah, I just..."

[She just couldn't bear to let go, but when she was excited, she always forgot that she was dealing with people, not animals. She is a good person.]

"The people of the Zhu family, I don't know why, and I don't know who they learned it from, but they are always so focused on these inexplicable things. They are so focused that they need to be marked with 'this is a person'."

[This is probably what a genius is. The kind of genius that is just one line away from being crazy. But I think Miss Zhu Ling has already crossed that line. She is only like this occasionally. Compared to her, your senior brother is much more abnormal.]

"is it?"

[I think it's because his moral sense is too high that you often ignore the fact that he is a Dan cultivator. Testing drugs on yourself is not something a normal person would do.]

"Ah," Shangluo sighed, "I don't know whether it is a blessing or a curse."

As he was talking, Phaethon came back from outside: "Okay, I'm back from my ride."

"Eh? What were you doing?" Zhu Ling asked, "You were still here when I came. I didn't even notice you went out."

"Nothing." Phaethon sat on the sofa. "It's just that Grani goes out for a walk at this time every day. In order to prevent people from noticing that there is no one in the car, I will sit in the driver's seat and pretend to drive."

"She's worthy of being our horse," Victoria said proudly. "She's such a good horse, no wonder she's such a self-disciplined horse!"

"By the way, Shangluo," Phaethon asked, "where will the meeting be held later? In the office? Or here?"

"There's no need to go out, just stay here."

There is a very important meeting this morning - or rather, it is a very important meeting that will determine the fate of a large number of people.

At the meeting, representatives from Syracuse and Lanfang will discuss a plan, a plan to launch the Vulcan device into space for full-state experiments.

This experiment is to test the limits of the Vulcan device. In a stable vacuum environment, the Vulcan device must show different performance ranges to find the safe zone of this technology.

Like many Roman technologies, the Vulcan device requires getting on board first and then paying for the ticket. It is to start with practical application, and then start to study the technology itself based on the phenomenon. In a way, this is more like alchemy than technology.

The Romans studied it not to find out the reason behind it, but just to figure out how to use it without destroying, drying out, freezing or tearing the earth apart.

Although this is outrageous, many people, including Shangluo, have gotten used to it. After all, there are actually many similar technologies, from bicycles to stock trading. Magic is everywhere, but no one has figured out how it works yet. But as long as it works, no one cares.

Although this is an important meeting, Shangluo no longer needs to go to the meeting in person. Thanks to the development of technology, Shangluo can now attend the meeting at home.

However, Shangluo was still considering whether it was necessary to arrange the surrounding space before the meeting so that this place would look more like a serious meeting room.

[Ah, you mean this.] Apollonia said, [No need, because our Beans are very smart, they will automatically help you transform the surrounding environment into a conference room.]

"They edited the video on the spot? Wouldn't it look fake?"

[No, the video looks much more credible than the image. You can totally trust the ability of the Beans, but there is a premise.]

"what?"

[We may need a piece of solid-colored cloth. Because if the environment is too complicated, it may cause unnecessary trouble, such as the surrounding images shaking like space compression. But as long as there is a piece of solid-colored cloth, Doudou can paint on white paper. ]

"Pure colored cloth. Ah, fortunately, there are curtains. Let's go there. I'll try it first."

At the same time, Zheng Shijie was sitting in his office, wearing formal clothes.

Today is the day of the meeting, the day that will decide the future of a large part of humanity, and one of the most important historical events in history that Lan Fang has participated in. In the past few events, Lan Fang has never been so important.

Because this time, Lan Fang stood at the center of the stage. It was the aerospace department of Lan Fang Administrative Services Co., Ltd. that was going to launch the machine into space.

"Lord Guoxing, someone is calling you. It's Lord Shang Tianjun."

"Oh, take it."

Four people brought in a huge TV from outside. This was the largest TV Shangluo had ever seen, big enough to be used as a window.

Not only does the TV have a large screen, but the back part is also very heavy, making the whole TV look as solid as a car.

Although it is large, the TV is quite clear and can receive a few TV programs currently available. However, the image transmission system behind the TV is not connected to the electrical signal, but to a tree trunk.

This is the trunk of a Jianmu tree. Not long ago, Shangluo sent a Jianmu tree to a place of his choice, and Pontianak was one of them. This place has now become one of the nodes of the spiritual network, and there will be no lag when watching 4K videos.

Chapter 1269 Video Conference

Shangluo appeared on Zheng Shijie's screen. At first, he was a little shaky, but soon, the handsome Shangluo sat firmly.

"Guoxing, do you think I look like a human?" Shangluo asked straight to the point.

"Why are you talking like a fake person? Are you not a human being?"

"No, I'm actually turning on the special effects now. I'm afraid I won't look human. Let me test it again."

Shangluo stood up and turned around: "How is it, is everything normal?"

"Why do you look like a funhouse mirror or a wandering spirit? I see you sitting behind a table, but when you move, there seems to be some problem with the masking relationship between you and the table. I always see something coming out of the model from time to time."

"Ah then I'll make do with it. Less movement is fine."

"Are you using Tianyi Guiren to help you generate images in real time? Good fellow, I mentioned this to Jinyiwei, but they didn't allow me to use it this way. But you can just change your clothes. I remember you have some very nice clothes, the ones you made with your senior brother."

“Actually it’s mainly for showing PPT.”

"What butt-kicking?"

"It's the slides. The slides I use for my presentations are not made by me, so the format is different."

“What’s the format?”

"The slides made by Apollonia cannot be transformed into actual images because they are preserved with phlogiston. We had to ask Tianyi Guiren to draw them on the spot. Only this can convey the non-existent images."

"That's a good idea. I'd like to try it. Do you think I can use it?"

"I don't think so. Unless you also have an Apollonia to generate the slides for you."

[Hmm~ I'll give you red beans. 】

"Tian Yi Guiren can only understand her words, not others. After all, birds of a feather flock together."

[Black beans! Big black beans! Why do you say that as if they and I are both stupid?]

"I didn't say a word. You said it all yourself."

[Eh? Ahhh! You’ve framed me! I’d better do my job properly, since you always frame me. Um, do you want to try playing the PPT now? ]

"Well, let's give Guoxing a trial broadcast."

[Ding ding ding——] Apollonia used onomatopoeia to simulate the loading, [It has been generated! ]

"Oh, good, I saw the title. It's really clearly written. The handwriting is very detailed and the pictures are very bright."
