"Could my sister alleviate her current symptoms?"
Misaka Mikoto hesitated for a moment before asking, while the Misaka Sisters beside her, who had already fainted, also looked pained.
"Oh, of course, no problem."
Bai Zhi grasped Misaka's hand, and the Dragon Talisman activated instantly.
The abundant energy surged into Misaka Sisters' entire body in an instant.
Although the Dragon Talisman does not explicitly state any healing effects, its abundant energy can indeed invigorate the spirit and body to a certain extent, and even accelerate healing.
However, if the other party's body is really weak, so weak that the body's self-repair mechanism can no longer fully utilize these energies, then the Dragon Talisman can only provide a temporary boost.
Just like a bucket with a hole, it can still hold water, but as time goes by, the water will eventually run out.
With the divine power of the Dragon Talisman, Misaka's eyelashes fluttered slightly, and then she opened her eyes.
"woke up!!"
"It's only temporary, but there should be quite a few ways to treat her condition on the Immortal Ship."
"That's right, she's a clone, isn't she? I could tell at a glance. Many planets that have just left their home planet like to use this method to mass-produce population and expand their power. Then those clones often have short lifespans and end up seeking medical treatment everywhere after earning credits."
"The Dan Ding Division has long had a well-developed contingency plan for this situation, and the equipment over there can repair the body."
"If you want to cure her, have her lie down inside; the equipment can detect it automatically."
Bai Lu pointed to a device placed to the side that looked like a coffin.
"Is it... really that simple?"
Misaka Mikoto was shocked. She had done her research and knew that even in the most advanced hospitals on Earth, her sister's condition could only be given a limited extension of life.
Moreover, these treatments that appropriately prolong life require a lot of manpower and resources; without sufficient funds, it's very difficult to carry out.
But now, all you have to do is lie down in that coffin and it's all done automatically.
What kind of amazing technology is this?
"Hmph, this is Immortal Boat Technology. In the field of biological science, Immortal Boat is virtually unrivaled in the entire universe," Bai Lu said smugly, hands on her hips.
Bai Zhi nodded in agreement. Bai Lu wasn't exaggerating when she said that, because even the flying machines on the Immortal Ship were made using biotechnology, along with the Breath of Earth and various war beasts—a whole host of biotechnology.
In the past, in order to crack the Demon Yin Body, the Dan Ding Division also worked hard to research and produced a lot of byproducts.
In the end, however, no one was able to achieve this goal.
"Big sister, is Misaka going?"
Misaka Sisters looked at Misaka Mikoto.
"Go ahead..."
Misaka Mikoto answered, looking somewhat dazed.
She was conflicted. She didn't have much doubt about the technology of the Immortal Boat. What troubled her was how to bring her sisters here if that thing could really cure her sister's illness.
That's nearly 20,000 younger sisters.
"Do you have any concerns? You can tell me."
Bai Zhi beckoned over and pulled over a stool, then sat down next to Misaka Mikoto.
"Eh, no, no." Misaka Mikoto was startled out of her reverie and hurriedly shook her head.
"It's alright, just say what you want to say. I'm a doctor here, there's nothing I can't say. Don't be so quick to shake your head, I've seen people like you more than once."
"Many patients have the same expression as you."
Bai Zhi's words made Misaka Mikoto swallow the words she was about to say.
She hesitated for a moment, looking at the encouragement in Bai Zhi's ruby-like eyes, before whispering, "How much money would it cost to treat nearly 20,000 patients like my sister...?"
She certainly remembered Bai Zhi's promise to provide free treatment, and she understood it perfectly.
In Academy City, such situations are not uncommon. For new cases or other things, the research institute not only doesn't charge money, but even pays people to conduct research.
However, that only applies to a small number of people. If there were so many Misaka Sisters, the cost of providing free treatment would be outrageous.
It's an act of kindness that they treated her for free, but that doesn't mean she can take advantage of it.
Seeing that Bai Zhi did not reply immediately, Misaka Mikoto became a little anxious.
"How about I work here? I'm quite capable; I can do anything!"
After much thought, this was the only solution she could come up with. As long as her sisters could be cured, she wasn't against working on another planet.
Moreover, compared to that dark place, Academy City, things might be better with this force called Immortal Ship.
"No need... It's only 20,000 people, giving you free treatment is no big deal."
It's only 20,000 people. For Bai Zhi, not to mention the Dan Ding Si, she's using the materials for free. Even if she really paid for these medical expenses, it wouldn't be impossible.
Although a billion is probably not enough, she still receives money from her company every month.
Besides, she never intended to use that machine to treat the Misaka Sisters. If she did that, either Shiratsuyu or she would be exhausted.
The focus is still on Conan.
"real??"
Bai Zhi's words completely surprised Misaka Mikoto.
"Really, would I lie to you? But not in this way, you'll see when the time comes."
"Any method will do as long as it can save my sisters."
As she said this, a thought also appeared in Misaka Mikoto's mind: "It's over, I really can't repay Bai Zhi's kindness now."
“I understand your excitement, but don’t rush. Treating illnesses takes time. Please sit here for a while and wait for the equipment over there to automatically diagnose and treat your sister. I need to discuss some things with Master Bailu.”
"Okay, please."
Misaka Mikoto bowed very solemnly.
Bai Zhi came to Bai Lu's side and saw that she was operating some complicated instruments.
“Master Bailu, I didn’t expect you to know how to use these things? When you taught me, it was all about yin and yang balance and dialectical treatment.”
"That's because you haven't even learned the basics, so of course you won't get a chance to learn these advanced things."
"I know the traditional medical methods of the Immortal Boat, but of course I must also know how to use scientific and technological methods for treatment and research. Every one of the physicians in the Dan Ding Division is a perfect score in biology."
"So, what does this mean?"
"It was a blood analysis of that boy. According to him, he had only recently become a child, so there should be a lot of residual drug components in his blood. The analysis did indeed reveal a lot, but..."
204 Yanqing: Lady Baizhi is a very good person!
"but what?"
"The analysis has indeed yielded results, but there is a major problem: we can synthesize this drug, but we don't know the proportions of the various drugs involved."
Bai Lu pointed to the projection, "The system provided some intelligent analysis, and they could all be the proportions of that drug."
"How about I go to Fu Taibu? I believe her ability to observe the formations can help me find the most suitable one."
Bai Zhi thought about it and then made this suggestion.
"No...isn't that a bit inappropriate? The Grand Diviner is very busy. We're asking her to divine this for something. How about we use some more traditional methods instead?"
"The traditional method... you mean... finding people to test the drug?"
Bai Zhi tried asking.
No matter what kind of medicine it is, if it is used on humans, it will ultimately have to be tested on humans, without a doubt.
The universe is so vast that if the immortal ship is willing to pay, there would be an endless stream of people willing to test medicines at the Pill Cauldron Department.
However, Bai Zhi knew very well that Conan shrunk because he ingested APTX4869, which was originally a semi-finished product of poison.
Who knows if the trial participants will die immediately after taking this drug with its unknown formulation?
She couldn't use the dog charm directly on the test subjects, because the dog charm locks blood, which might directly destroy some of the drug's effects. What if this drug was meant to bring about a death sentence and then bring about a new life? It's hard to say.
People come to participate in drug trials to make money, not to die.
It's not right to harm innocent people like this.
"Yes, find people to test the drug; that's the most direct way."
Bai Lu confirmed.
"Hmm, how about I go to the Earth Balance Division and the Ten Kings Division? There are many death row inmates from other planets there. Using them to test drugs might be more humane."
Bai Zhi thought about it and decided that it was better not to use this stuff on trial participants; it would be better to use death row inmates instead.
Anyway, those guys deserve to die; they made contributions to medicine, so they died a worthy death.
Bai Lu paused for a moment, "It's not impossible, as long as we can get authorization from the general."
Many medical studies pose a great threat to life, and the Dan Ding Si would occasionally request death row inmates from the Shence Mansion to conduct experiments.
However, since it involves human life, such applications are extremely difficult to get approved and generally cannot be approved.
"That should be fine."
Bai Zhi said confidently, "Jing Yuan said he would fully support her. A few death row inmates are nothing to her."
"Then I'll go to the Shence Mansion first. Everyone, remember not to wander around. Just stay here obediently."
After giving this reminder, Bai Zhi walked out of the clinic, only to find that there were already many more Yunqi Army guards outside.
The most eye-catching one was a boy with his eyes closed and legs crossed, practicing controlling a flying sword.
That's right, this young man is Yan Qing.
"Lady Baizhi, you've arrived."
Seemingly sensing someone approaching, Yanqing opened her eyes and, upon seeing that it was Baizhi, spoke with a hint of respect.

"grown ups?"
Bai Zhi found it rather strange. She had heard many other people call her that, but Yan Qing actually used this term.
Although Yanqing is young, her arrogance is second to none in Luofu.
"Yes, Lady Baizhi is about to be crowned Dragon Lord. The relevant ceremony proposal has been approved by the Divine Strategy Bureau. In the future, you will be the Dragon Lord, so Yanqing, please call me that in advance to get used to it."
Yanqing said with a serious expression.
"Isn't Bai Lu also a Dragon Lord? Why haven't I seen you call her 'Your Excellency'?"
Bai Zhi asked curiously.
Yanqing scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed, and explained:
“Lady Baizhi, as you know, we martial artists value strength the most. Bai Lu… her medical skills are indeed good, but in terms of strength, she is really hard to convince everyone. You are different. At this age, the talent you have shown is even better than the Five Heroes of the Clouds.”
"Moreover, you have that ability, and you will definitely be the savior of the alliance in the future, so calling you 'Sir' is something I truly admire."
"Ok."
Bai Zhi sighed. Bai Lu's situation was indeed a bit awkward. She needed to think of a way to help her improve her combat power.
Let's not talk about something as outrageous as being on par with the Commander, but at least we should be able to improve to a level similar to Yan Qing's.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, Yanqing took the initiative to change the subject.
"Lady Baizhi, is there something you need?"
"It's nothing, I just want to go to the Shence Mansion to find the general and ask him for a few death row inmates to conduct experiments."
Yanqing breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this. "So it was such a trivial matter. You should have said so earlier. I could have reported directly to the General without having to go to the Shence Mansion."
"We still have to go. After all, it involves a matter of life and death. We need to get the authorization document from the Shence Mansion. Otherwise, it will be difficult to explain to the general later, and it will create a lot of trouble for no reason."
"I see... How about I accompany you to the Shence Mansion?"
Bai Zhi shook her head helplessly. "It's not that bad, Yanqing, it really isn't. I'm not at the point where I'd be attacked just walking down the street. Or... do you not have confidence in the security of the Immortal Ship?"
"The security of the Immortal Ship is certainly comprehensive. With Yanqing and the General, as well as the Cloud Cavalry brothers of the Immortal Ship, Luofu's defenses are impenetrable!"
Yanqing patted his chest and assured him.
