The world has turned into Hell's Game, why should I stay human?!

"Hehe, it's the kind of discomfort only females have."

Niu Daji said with a wink.

"Oh. Hasn't she already given birth? Why does she still have her period?"

Liu Zheng asked, puzzled.

"It only stops when you're pregnant, it comes back after. For women, it only completely stops after menopause. Boss, how do you not even know this?"

Niu Daji was even more puzzled than him.

"I've never given birth, isn't it normal not to know?"

Liu Zheng argued.

"But I haven't given birth either..."

"Are you good at talking? Want me to throw you into the Underwater River to talk slowly?"

He threatened.

"No, no, no, I won't say anything else, I won't."

Niu Daji shut his mouth, aggrieved.

Thrown into the Underwater River, how can one open their mouth?

Ah, being a lackey means having no rights.

"Anyone need help having a baby? I can help."

Doctor Nile walked out as he spoke.

"You have this business too?"

Liu Zheng was surprised.

"If there's money to be made, why not make it? The gender transformation and assisted pregnancy projects are quite profitable."

Doctor Nile said.

"Makes sense, but I don't have that thought. Niu Daji seems quite interested."

He deflected the blame.

"Oh?"

Doctor Nile looked at Niu Daji.

"I'm not, I'm not, I, I'll go make some tea."

Niu Daji quickly slipped away.

"Hmph, acting up because he hasn't been disciplined for three days."

Liu Zheng put on a bossy tone.

"Oh? Daring to defy authority?"

Doctor Nile asked curiously.

"Not really. Doctor, your outfit is quite grand today."

He changed the topic.

But Doctor Nile's outfit was indeed quite eye-catching today.

He was wearing a sleeveless bronze scale armor like a dress, with a blue hat with a golden cobra sticking out its tongue on the brim.

A golden necklace hung around Doctor Nile's neck with three pendants: a scorpion made of Black Gemstone, a Scarab made of blue gemstone, and a dragonfly made of green gemstones.

Looking at his feet, he was even wearing golden flip-flops.

It wasn't just the clothing; Doctor Nile's weapons were equally notable.

In his right hand, he held a half-human-high round-headed Scepter, his left the gem-encrusted waist saber seen last time, and a shimmering Triangular Bow strapped on his back.

He looked like a fusion of ostentation, authority, and nonchalance, making Liu Zheng a bit envious.

"But looking at him, he doesn't seem to be dressed like a Priest."

After the amazement, he felt something was off.

"That's because this is how Pharaohs dress for expeditions."

Doctor Nile stated frankly.

"Wow, Doctor, you must have quite a story before coming to Metropolis."

Liu Zheng teased.

"Don't talk nonsense, I'm very loyal to Pharaohs."

Doctor Nile quickly said.

Although the times have changed, he's now under the dual jurisdiction of City Hall and Sun God Ra, he's not prepared to bear the stigma of disloyalty.

"These things didn't just fall from the sky, did they?"

Liu Zheng gave him a look that said "we're all friends here, who are you pretending for?".

"They actually did fall from the sky. Don't you remember the Pyramid you gave me? These items were found in the secret treasure chamber of the Pyramid."

Doctor Nile replied.

"What? Damn, I lost big here."

He sighed.

If he had known this, he would at least have asked Doctor Nile for a couple of million as a storage fee.

"You're dreaming, a non-Priest can't even discover, let alone open the treasure chamber."

Doctor Nile said proudly.

"Besides, how could I take advantage of a junior? What's yours will always be yours."

He said meaningfully.

"No thanks, I prefer buffet style, I can't digest what others force-feed me."

Liu Zheng quickly replied.

"Be grateful you have food. You're being picky because everything's been a smooth ride for you."

Doctor Nile shook his head.

"Smooth? Well, maybe it has been pretty smooth."

But having a system, shouldn't things be smooth?

"By the way, I have a piece of good news and a piece of bad news, which do you want to hear first?"

Doctor Nile asked.

'Here we go, the classic scenario. The good news, please.'

Liu Zheng chose to honor the classic.

"The good news is, with these treasures, my power can increase by at least double."

Doctor Nile said confidently.

"That's really great news."

He responded with delight.

Doctor Nile was already strong, doubling his power might even surpass Niu Ma.

"The bad news is, though God La allows me to use these items, since I'm not a Pharaoh, I don't get their true approval. After using them once, I have to wait at least a month to use them again."

Doctor Nile shrugged.

"A Pyramid I toss out and can't get back, gear with a one-month cooldown period, you're not running a clinic, you're running a pawn shop, open for three years, eat profits for three years."

Liu Zheng said with squinted eyes.

"How dare you say that? You've touched more Extraordinary Items than I have, how many do you have left now? Plus, you gave these to me, so it's your problem, really."

Doctor Nile countered.

"Sigh, don't even mention it, it's all tears when I talk about it."

His sore spot struck, he could only sigh.

"Alright, I was just saying. Besides, you're still young, there'll be plenty of opportunities to gather Extraordinary Items in the future."

Doctor Nile patted his shoulder.

"True. Let me take this call, Doctor."

The phone rang, and Liu Zheng answered it in front of him.

"Found the car. Rent is a thousand a day, wear and tear, repair fees, and such will be calculated when you return it. To buy, it's a flat rate of 300,000, and it comes with almost fully repaired parts along with the gear."

Ace said rapid-fire.

"What does 'almost fully repaired' mean? And what are those gears?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"It's a test car; it's been tested with some heavy bashing, so it's impossible to fully fix, just get it running adequately. As for the gear, they're for testing, what's fixable will be mounted for you."

Ace replied.

"What was it tested for?"

He asked curiously.

"Defensive performance, wasn't it? Didn't you want something durable? This fits perfectly."

Ace replied back.

"Alright. I'll buy it then. Does it have a plate?"

"Probably not. No worries, I'll have them issue you a plate."

Ace said nonchalantly.

"Okay, let me know the cost when it's sorted."

Liu Zheng said.

"No biggie. I'll drive the car to the tabletop RPG place later, and we can finish the session we didn't complete last time."

Ace said.

"No, no, no!"

He hurriedly shouted.

"Damn, what happened to you, got shocked? You scared me."

Ace replied, speechless.

"If you really drive there, I would get shocked."

Liu Zheng said with a wry smile and told him about the issue with the Red Witch.

"Wow, I didn't know that statue could move. But since she values you so much, you must be a tabletop RPG genius. We should have more confidence in beating 'Land of Chaos' this time."

Ace said with joy.

"Since I agreed, I'll definitely help you conquer it, whether I'm the one playing with you or not. But for now, please drive the car to the Clinic."

Liu Zheng gave him the address of the Imhotep Clinic.

"Alright, can do."

Ace had no objections.

"Why not use the cars from your Bloody Restaurant? Wouldn't those be better value?"

Doctor Nile asked, confused.

"There's some problem. Doctor, how are your driving skills?"

Liu Zheng inquired.

"I do pretty well with two-wheeled vehicles, but for four wheels, I can only say I can drive them."

Doctor Nile shrugged.

He barely goes out except for work, and when he does, it's to fixed spots, so there's no need or chance to practice his driving skills.

"Alright, I'll ask President Yuan to send me an experienced driver then."

Liu Zheng said as he called Yuan Baoer.
