Chapter 43: Chapter 43: Anti-Fatigue Elixir
Upon seeing this, Wu Chen remained calm. Instead of immediately sorting through his memories, he opened the shop and manually refreshed the wish card usage.
[-$100,000]
Once the wish card was available for use, he inputted "a potion that can instantly relieve fatigue without any side effects."
[Anti-Fatigue Pills: Instantly relieves all fatigue accumulated during the day without any side effects. Exchange requires $1 million.]
Wu Chen: ???
Confidently, Wu Chen typed out a question mark.
"This is too expensive!"
No good, let's try another one.
"A potion that can relieve fatigue without any side effects."
[Anti-Fatigue Potion: Gradually relieves all fatigue accumulated during the day within the next few hours after consumption. Recommended to use before sleep. Exchange requires $1 million, can be consumed up to ten times.]
This one was slightly cheaper, but still, it cost $100,000 to relieve fatigue once. It felt like burning money!
Undeterred, Wu Chen tried inputting other fatigue-relieving potions but ultimately found that these two were the best. The cheaper options came with many side effects, like falling into a deep sleep or feeling overwhelming desires.
After much consideration, Wu Chen decided to purchase the Anti-Fatigue Potion.
[-$1 million]
After the exchange, a small blue bottle appeared in Wu Chen's palm. The bottle was beautiful, transparent, and multifaceted, shimmering under the light, making it look quite exquisite.
At the same time, a set of instructions appeared before Wu Chen as he touched the bottle.
[Attention: The potion must be consumed in one gulp for it to be effective. Otherwise, there is a chance of it not working! After consumption, the potion will automatically regenerate in twelve hours.]
"So, that's why the bottle is so small?"
Wu Chen opened the bottle and drank its contents in one go. The potion tasted sweet and refreshing, flowing smoothly down his throat and invigorating his body and mind. He immediately felt a cool sensation spreading throughout his body, leaving him feeling relaxed and refreshed.
After closing the bottle and putting it back in the drawer, Wu Chen checked the time, took a shower, turned off the lights, and lay down on his bed. As he prepared to rest, he began to organize the memories of his shadow clone, Wu Chen.
As for today with Minato Namikaze, it was nothing special. They simply completed a mission together with Black Widow as usual, earning $50,000 as a reward, which increased Wu Chen's balance from $2.35 million to $2.4 million. However, Minato Namikaze's progress in playing his role only increased by 0.1%.
This confirmed Wu Chen's previous speculation that the difficulty of obtaining progress in playing a role would significantly increase after reaching fifty percent.
Nevertheless, there was no need to worry. Now that Wu Chen knew playing a ninja involved more than just accepting and completing missions, but also following the character's trajectory and goals, there was much to explore. Minato Namikaze was a good example.
With everything settled, it was time for bed. Perhaps due to the anti-fatigue potion, Wu Chen slept particularly soundly, waking up refreshed the next morning.
Over the next two to three days, everything proceeded as Wu Chen had expected. Under the orders of villains like Killmonger, a few strange individuals appeared on the streets of New York, including thugs and men in black suits. These individuals would often stop and search around as if looking for something.
This abnormal situation immediately caught the attention of the New York government. They sent out police officers to detain several thugs and interrogate them.
One police officer coldly stared at the thug in front of him and asked, "Why are you wandering around the streets?"
"Why? Why not? Can't I wander around the streets?" The thug, who was white like the police officer, replied without fear.
If the thug had been black, he might have confessed everything already. It's not that black people are cowardly, but because white police officers often casually shoot black people. Didn't we see the news a few days ago? A U.S. police officer choked a black man to death in broad daylight without any resistance!
Therefore, generally speaking, black people tend to cooperate extremely well to stay alive.
The thugs remained silent, and the New York police had no choice but to give them a verbal warning and release them.
However, the abnormal situation continued to escalate, and eventually, all citizens of New York were swept up in what seemed like a treasure hunt frenzy.
At this point, S.H.I.E.L.D. and even higher levels of the U.S. government couldn't sit idly by.
If it was just the private actions of some thugs, it would be nothing. After all, there are always lunatics every year, it's just that there seems to be more this year.
However, with the entire New York City seemingly searching for something, this couldn't be ordinary.
It was obvious that someone was behind all this!
It was very likely the "hidden power" that Minato Namikaze mentioned.
Moreover, it's possible that what Minato Namikaze said about the Tailed Beasts was true!
At this point, Nick Fury reluctantly felt that what Minato Namikaze said seemed to be true.
So, after much consideration, he decided to send agents to investigate the matter.
