But she tried hard to open her eyes a little bit and looked at Ryan carefully and attentively sewing up her body stitch by stitch. For no reason, it seemed that a warm current flowed through her body.
It seemed that the pain had also been relieved a lot.
Although he was a strange brother...
But unexpectedly, he made Alice feel cared for and protected, just like a long time ago when she was still alive, when her father, mother, and brother hadn't changed yet...
It made her feel at ease.
She closed her eyes gently again, and a small arc unconsciously appeared at the corner of her mouth.
Although it hurt, it was also very happy.
Could this be the feeling of being loved?
[Ding! Alice's favorability towards you +40, her trustworthiness in your eyes +30, and her hatred value decreased by 3%]
[Ding! You made Alice feel pain, Alice's hatred value -0.2%, and her favorability towards you +10]
Ryan (〃´ 皿 `) q said,"Damn system, shut up!"
...
After spending a few hours helping Alice sew up her body again and thus gaining a large amount of favorability.
Ryan knew that it was time for him to complete the job transfer task of Night Healer.
Then he opened the panel.
His eyes focused on his curse.
[Crying Clown].
This was the curse he got after drinking the soup of the Pig-headed Butcher.
It was shown as a negative state.
But like the other curses he had collected, there was no introduction at all. He still had no idea what kind of negative impact it would have on him.
But based on his speculation of these four words.
A clown who wore a smile during the day but cried alone behind the stage at night.
The clown brought smiles to people, but crying was the sadness contrary to smiles.
If it was in this Dark World, then he had to think in an extreme direction.
[Disorder]
Ryan narrowed his eyes and wrote those two words in his notebook.
Then.
After hesitating for a moment.
He wrote down a second word.
[Out of Control]
Of course, these were just his guesses. What exactly this curse was would have to wait until it took effect to make a conclusion.
And as long as he figured out its impact on him at that time, he could directly remove it temporarily at a critical moment to prevent it from causing major mistakes for him at certain times.
Putting down the pen.
Ryan sat on the counter and thought carefully.
But just at this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door.
"Welcome!"
Ryan immediately raised his head and showed a professional smile on his face.
This was something he had never expected.
Because it had been two whole days since no guest had visited the Wandering Soul Lane.
"It's so strange. In such a large area, there's not even a ghost in sight. For dozens of kilometers around, there's only your shop open?!"
A lizardman with a long neck, completely red all over, wearing tattered travel clothes, and carrying a package walked in. His eyes were like an eagle's, but his voice was like that of a chattering imp.
[War Lizard (Red)]
[Race]: Lizardman
[Level]: 49
[Attributes]: Neutral Evil
[Combat Ability]: Swift mobility and cunning attack methods.
[Introduction]: A humanoid race. In the Dark World, lizardmen are known for their cunning, ferocity, and greed. Although they occasionally trade with other races, as long as they think you're weak, even if it just seems that way, they will not hesitate to kill you and rob you of your property.
Then.
His eyes fell on Ryan, who was smiling, and his eyes rolled around. He quickly scanned the human in front of him and quickly made a basic evaluation.
Weak.
Delicate.
Easy to bully.
And a human.
"Guest, what can I do for you?" Ryan maintained his professional smile and adjusted his monocle.
The War Lizard immediately bared his sharp teeth, showing a cunning smile. He hooked his long nails on the dagger at his waist and quickly strode forward.
He didn't say a word.
Almost as soon as he took a step, he suddenly pulled out his sharp dagger and stuck out his greedy long tongue.
"Of course, I want all of your property!!"
Bang—
A gunshot rang out.
A bullet shot past his forehead.
The expression on the War Lizard's face froze on the spot.
Bang bang bang bang bang—
Another five bullets passed by his ears, between his fingers, by his head, and near his crotch respectively.
[Ding! The War Lizard's San value -20]
[Ding! The War Lizard's fear level towards you +10]
[Ding! The War Lizard's fear level towards you +20]
He could clearly feel that each shot was just one millimeter away from hitting him. He had only seen such miraculous marksmanship with that demon hunter.
This person's gun... was so accurate...
A drop of sweat.
It fell to the ground with a plop.
[The War Lizard's fear level towards you +30]
Ryan still had a kind smile on his face. The revolver in his hand spun around with a clatter and was then put back into his waistband.
"Guest, are you sure you want all of my property?"
Ryan's smile was so sincere and friendly.
It made people feel warm.
The War Lizard (;OдO), spread his ten fingers, and the two daggers in his hands clattered to the ground. He said,
"Just... just kidding... I can tell at a glance that you're a very friendly boss... Right?"
Ryan smiled and said, "I've found a kindred spirit."
...
A few minutes later.
[Ding! You've triggered a task: The Sick Lizardman. Task rewards: 100 Skull Coins, 100 basic experience points]
In front of the counter, the War Lizard sat in front of the counter like a civilized person with his legs crossed.
His long tail swayed back and forth. There was no sign of his previous ferocity at all. Instead, he looked more like a polite gentleman.
The War Lizard reached out and rubbed his stuffy nose and said politely,
"Well, dear doctor, my companions and I are travelers traveling around. We're not robbers, nor the kind of bad lizardmen who like to kill and rob. You know that."
Ryan indicated that he understood.
The War Lizard put his hands crossed on the counter, sneezed, and said,
"Because of the fatigue from traveling, I think I might have some symptoms of a cold. Could you diagnose it for me? It would be best if you could prescribe some cold medicine, the cheapest kind."
Ryan said calmly, "Don't worry. Customers are our gods. With me here, you'll surely recover soon."
Saying that.
Ryan reached out and put his hand on his wrist.
And at the moment when he was about to diagnose.
[Ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding—]
Dozens of prompts from the Random Diagnosis Skill suddenly rang in Ryan's ears.
Ryan was shocked and his brows immediately furrowed.
The War Lizard's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
The doctor's brows furrowed so suddenly that it made his heart feel a bit hairy! There were so many wrinkles!
He asked uneasily, "Doctor, is my cold very serious?"
Ryan raised his head, looked at him seriously, and said,
"No, the cold isn't serious."
"That's good."
"Eat whatever you want, eat more good food, go wherever you want to play, and don't be mean to yourself at this time..."
"Uh... Thank you for your advice, doctor."
"Spend more time with your family, leave some memories for them. If there's anything you didn't dare to do before, do it quickly now. Don't be sad, and take good care of yourself."
"..."
The War Lizard was confused.
Why did these words sound more and more creepy!
Isn't it just a little cold?
Why did it sound like I was terminally ill and about to die soon?
This wasn't right!
"Doctor!" The War Lizard widened his eyes and slapped the table, saying,
"Why do you make it sound like I'm going to die? Doctor, don't scare me like this, okay?"
Ryan took a deep breath, adjusted his monocle, and moved his gaze away from his face, saying,
"Sorry, the cold is really not serious."
"Of course it's not serious!" The War Lizard was anxious.
"But the other diseases I diagnosed... are one more serious than the other."
"..."
There was a brief silence.
The War Lizard was completely confused.
Ryan adjusted his glasses with a dark face and his expression became serious. He lowered his eyes and read one by one,
"Advanced tuberculosis, chronic muscle atrophy, intermittent psychosis, hemorrhoids, coronary heart disease, cerebrovascular blockage, osteoporosis, leukemia, cataracts, impotence..."
Every time he said the name of a disease.
The War Lizard's whole body trembled violently.
By the time he finished saying the last disease, the War Lizard was already (((;꒪ꈊ꒪;))).
"Doctor, don't joke around... I... I just have a cold. The way you put it, I feel like there's not a single good part in my whole body..."
Ryan's eyes were full of sympathy as he said, "Yes, you are indeed the first person I've ever seen who can still survive tenaciously with more than a dozen diseases..."
Ryan's eyes turned red.
