Chapter 28 Daily Check-in
Chapter 28 Daily Check-in
Qin Chuan breathed a sigh of relief, almost collapsing to the ground. Just now, he had focused almost all his attention on a tiny point, afraid that even a millimeter's deviation would damage Yang Mimi's lung tissue.
Fortunately, Burning Heaven's accuracy was higher than he had imagined.
The moment the parasite was killed, Yang Mimi's body reacted instinctively.
She coughed violently.
"Cough cough cough!"
A mouthful of dark red blood gushed from her mouth, splattering onto the pillow. Mixed in with the blood were a few grayish-black fragments, the remains of the parasite that had been burned to death by the Heavenly Flame.
Liu Yifei was startled and rushed over to support Yang Mimi's shoulders, turning her head to the side to prevent her from choking on the blood.
"Mimi! Mimi, how are you?"
Yang Mimi coughed several more times, each cough causing her to arch her back. Blood and bits of food dripped from the corners of her mouth, staining the banana leaves on the pillow and bed frame red.
Lin Shishi was also awakened by the noise. She ran in, and the air was filled with the scent of photinia flowers.
But seeing this scene, he didn't care about anything else.
"What happened? Why is she coughing up blood?"
"It's alright." Qin Chuan stood up and stepped aside. "She had a parasite in her lung, which I killed using a skill given to me by the system. The bits of stuff she's coughing up now are the remains of that parasite."
Lin Shishi's eyes widened: "Parasitites? Skills?"
Qin Chuan gave a brief explanation.
Although Lin Shishi did not fully understand the principle behind "Burning Heaven," she was a medical professional and knew the seriousness of parasitic infections.
"If the fever is indeed caused by parasites, the inflammation should gradually subside after the parasites are killed. But she is very weak now and needs to replenish fluids and nutrients."
Liu Yifei quickly went to get the coconut water.
Yang Mimi's cough gradually subsided. She was panting heavily, her face and neck covered in sweat, as if she had been pulled out of the water.
But Qin Chuan noticed that her complexion was slowly changing. The unhealthy flush was fading, replaced by a normal rosy glow.
My breathing has become steady, not as rapid as before.
Liu Yifei ran back with a coconut water in her hand, sat on the edge of the bed, and fed Yang Mimi small sips of it.
Yang Mimi opened her eyes groggily, looked at Liu Yifei, then at Qin Chuan standing beside her, and moved her mouth slightly.
"Feifei... what's wrong with me...?"
Liu Yifei's tears welled up instantly, but the corners of her mouth were curved upwards.
"You're alright, you're alright. Brother Chuan saved you."
As Qin Chuan watched this scene, several thoughts raced through his mind.
Liu Yifei is genuinely good to Yang Mimi; she's a loyal and kind girl, and worth getting to know.
Qin Chuan's feelings were complicated; he didn't know how to evaluate his role in this matter. If he called himself a hero, he had taken advantage of Liu Yifei's anxiety and trust. If he called himself a scumbag, he had indeed saved Yang Mimi's life with the Burning Heaven technique.
But one thing is clear: the skill "Burning Heaven" is incredibly powerful.
It can precisely strike the biological tissue inside a target from a distance, without touching objects.
The system performs a depth scan to lock onto the target within a 3-meter range, then fires a powerful shot that directly damages the target's internal body.
What does this mean? It means that if he encounters a ferocious beast, he can use a depth scan within a 3-meter range to see the location of its internal organs, and then unleash the Heavenly Incineration Technique, which theoretically could directly burn away the beast's heart or brain.
Damage to the internal organs of wild beasts is often fatal!
Of course, 3 meters is too close and extremely dangerous when facing large predators. But as a trump card, this skill is powerful enough to overwhelm any opponent.
Therefore, the conclusion is: Burning Heaven is powerful, but its use is subject to harsh conditions, has a long cooldown, and requires a one-hit kill, so it cannot be used as a regular combat method.
Qin Chuan sorted through this information in his mind and put it aside for the time being.
After eating, Yang Mimi felt much better. She leaned against the headboard; although her face was still a little pale, her eyes were brighter and less lifeless than before.
"Brother Chuan, thank you." Yang Mimi looked at Qin Chuan, unusually serious for once.
Qin Chuan waved his hand: "No need to thank me, thank Liu Yifei instead."
Yang Mimi turned her head and looked at Liu Yifei beside her.
Qin Chuan and Lin Shishi exchanged a glance and silently left the room.
After the curtain fell, Qin Chuan and Lin Shishi stood in the corridor.
Lin Shishi asked softly, "Brother Chuan, can you kill the bugs through your body?"
"Yes, this is a reward from the system."
Lin Shishi nodded thoughtfully: "That's great, if that's the case. Then if someone gets sick in the future, will you be able to detect it?"
"They're usually sick, so it should be fine, right?"
Lin Shishi hummed in agreement and lowered her head to think for a while.
"Brother Chuan, you're getting stronger and stronger. It's so good to have you here."
After saying that, she turned and went into her room, the banana leaf curtain swaying gently behind her.
Qin Chuan stood in the corridor for a few seconds, stunned, before walking out of the wooden house.
The blue moon outside had already shifted to the west, and Qin Chuan estimated that it was probably around midnight.
He sat down by the campfire, added a few more pieces of firewood, and the flames blazed up again.
The orange flames and blue moonlight intertwined, casting Qin Chuan's shadow on the ground.
He leaned against the wooden stake, looking up at the two suns in the sky... no, the sun had already set, and only the blue moon remained.
Qin Chuan closed his eyes, replaying the events of the night in his mind.
Yang Mimi's illness is cured. Her pupil technique has been upgraded. The Burning Heaven skill trial was successful. As for Liu Yifei's matter... it can be considered resolved; she wasn't taken advantage of for nothing.
However, upgrading the Pupil Technique from LV2 to LV3 requires 50 proficiency points, which is still far from enough. It will probably take another 6 days to upgrade.
I wonder what kind of power the pupil technique will have when it reaches level 3.
.....
Inside Yang Mimi's room, Liu Yifei was chatting with her.
"Feifei, what exactly happened? Tell me clearly." Yang Mimi recovered her mental state quickly.
"Brother Chuan saved you; he's a very special person."
"Special? How so?"
"Listen to me, starting tomorrow, give him a kiss every morning at eight o'clock and every evening at eight o'clock."
"Huh? Kissing twice a day? Why?"
"Yes, we need to French kiss. It will do us good things, I'll tell you the details later."
Yang Mimi hesitated for a moment before asking, "Feifei, are you running a fever?"
"What are you saying! I'm serious."
"Seriously? You want me to kiss Brother Chuan twice a day?"
"Honey, listen to me. Brother Chuan just saved your life with his abilities. He's our biggest support for surviving on this island. It's just a kiss, it won't cost you anything."
Yang Mimi remained silent for a while.
"Okay, okay, but he has to brush his teeth every day."
.....
Late at night.
The sound of waves came from afar, one after another. The area around the camp was quiet; there was nothing unusual within a 300-meter range of the pupil technique.
Qin Chuan leaned against the wooden stake and slowly closed his eyes.
He has too much to do today and needs to rest.
But before falling completely asleep, one last thought crossed Qin Chuan's mind:
We have to go hunting in the forest tomorrow.
Five people have big appetites, and seafood and fruit won't last long. We've finished the wild boar meat, so we need to replenish our protein intake.
Moreover, Yang Mimi has just recovered from a serious illness and needs to eat well to nourish her body.
Thinking of this, Qin Chuan leaned against the wooden house and fell into a deep sleep.
The wood in the fire crackled and popped, sending sparks flying into the sky, only to be quickly dispersed by the night wind.
