Chapter 29

Watching Sa Ze's figure gradually fade away from the challenge platform, Gu Ding felt a sense of exhaustion coming from his body.

Medicine King Valley was the same as the Virtual Arena in that it consumed a person's spirit. More than three hours of continuous high-intensity operation had almost exhausted Gu Ding's spirit.

Without even getting off the challenge platform, Gu Ding directly asked Neptune to disconnect his spiritual link with Medicine King Valley. In the cockpit seat, he fell into a deep sleep.

Parma waited a little anxiously. She had sent a message to Gu Ding for a day but had not received any reply. More than a dozen calls went straight to voicemail.

During this period, Modico also asked Parma twice if she had contacted Gu Ding.

"Could something have happened?" Parma's worries were not unfounded. Interstellar travel was generally accompanied by all kinds of dangers.

In Medicine King Valley, while Gu Ding was asleep, many people had seen Gu Ding's video. In particular, the video of Gu Ding and Sa Ze refining the speed enhancer had garnered more than 20 million views in one day.

Medicine King Valley's public video could be viewed even if one was not a temporary resident of Medicine King Valley. As long as there was the right link, one could click in.

Gu Ding's appearance was very clear in the video. However, in the video, the character's nickname was blank, and there was only a number on Gu Ding's body. That number was automatically assigned by the system. Everyone would be assigned one the first time they entered the Medicine King's Valley, and it was unique.

The popularity of the video had also attracted the attention of Hermean Alliance's Skyriver Sector branch.

The Skyriver Sector branch had always been in the middle and lower reaches of Hermean Alliance. Now that Gu Ding had suddenly appeared, they were vaguely looking forward to the new ranking.

As a member of the Skyriver Sector branch, Modico had a high status as an A-level pharmacologist, but in fact, he did not have much real power. He was only given the position of honorary president, and the actual president was someone else.

Looking at Gu Ding's pitiful registration information, Anthony, the president of the Skyriver Sector branch, frowned slightly, but he soon saw a line of keywords. "Joint referees: Modico and Parma."

He could not wait to dial Modico's number.

"Senior, that Gu Ding, is he someone you know? I saw your and Parma's names on his profile. "

Modico was stunned when he heard that. He immediately knew that Anthony must have seen Gu Ding's refining video. He rolled his eyes. "That kid is my disciple. What do you want?"

"Internally decided? In other words, it hasn't been decided yet? " Anthony grasped the key point, but he did not dare to say it out loud. Modico's bad temper and protective nature were well known. It was not a wise move to offend him.

"Senior, don't be anxious. I don't dare to snatch your disciple. I've just seen his refining video, and I can't teach a genius of that level at my level. I just want to know if he's from our Skyriver Sector. "

"You want him to participate in the newcomer ranking competition?" Modico knew what Anthony was planning as soon as he heard the question. Hermean Alliance had many branches in Dragon Soar Cosmic Nation, covering almost every star sector. Every year, there would be various sparring competitions between the various Star Fields to rank the corresponding Star Fields. The higher the ranking of the Star Fields, the more resources they would receive from Hermean Alliance.

There was also a limit to these sparring competitions. Only native pharmacologists could represent the Star Fields. Therefore, Anthony asked the question that concerned him the most.

"Gu Ding is from Planet Aquamarine. He's qualified to participate in the newcomer ranking competition." Modico had also heard a lot about Gu Ding from his disciple Parma. He also had some understanding of Gu Ding's background.

"I wonder if Senior can help me contact him?" Anthony asked. "He hasn't logged into Medicine King Valley since he went offline on the challenge platform. We've left him several messages, but he hasn't replied to them. "

Anthony was a swift and decisive person. Whatever he did, he would finish it in the first place without delay. That was why, after watching Gu Ding's video, he immediately collected all the information he could about Gu Ding to analyze whether he was suitable to participate in the newcomer ranking competition. It was around twelve o 'clock in the morning when he saw Gu Ding's video. By the time he finished watching the video, it was already past three o' clock in the morning. After reading Gu Ding's profile, he sent Gu Ding an invitation and had not slept since. Of course, he did not get the reply he wanted. His slight obsessive-compulsive disorder made him want to contact Gu Ding before he could rest assured.

"I haven't been able to contact him for more than twenty hours," Modico told the truth. "According to my estimation, he may have fallen into a deep sleep due to overexertion of his spirit. After all, he's only a Rank 1 Gene Body. The strength of his spirit is limited."

"I see." Anthony heard Modico's explanation and realized that a lack of spirit would indeed cause a person to fall into a deep sleep. It was normal that his message did not get any reply. Gu Ding did not see it at all. "Senior, if you can contact him, please make sure he logs into Medicine King Valley as soon as possible."

"I'll pass on the message. Don't worry." Modico nodded. "If he can get a good ranking, it'll be an honor for our entire division."

"Then I won't bother you anymore." Anthony hung up the call politely.

After sleeping for more than twenty hours, Gu Ding finally woke up.

"You've slept for twenty-three and a half hours this time. Your spirit has increased to 12 points," Neptune reminded Gu Ding when he woke up. "Other than that, there are many people who have been contacting you during this time."

"It should only be Parma, right?" Based on Gu Ding's understanding of his friends, Parma was probably the only one who would contact him. After all, Parma would find out sooner or later that he was refining medicine in Medicine King Valley. He just did not know that Parma would find out so soon.

He turned on his communicator and saw that Parma had left eleven voice messages and sent eight messages.

"What's with the urgency?" Gu Ding opened the messages one by one.

After listening to them for a few minutes, Gu Ding found out that both of his refining processes in Medicine King Valley had been secretly recorded. Parma's message also mentioned that Master Modico wanted to see him and wanted to set a time to meet.

"Modico probably wants to take you as his disciple. I just checked. That person has a good reputation and his refining skills are not bad. He's considered to be at the top of the A-level pharmacologists. It's up to you whether you agree to it or not. I think it's good to have someone to support you in the early stages of development. "Neptune shared the information he had found.

Gu Ding did not say anything. He looked at Parma's number and hesitated for a moment before pressing the call button.
