“Mmm.”

Mule lowered his head to look at the list. Below the magic potion was a line of smaller text.

[This store offers equipment forging services to the public. Customers can entrust the store with two or more extraordinary materials. The store will randomly produce ordinary, rare, or excellent equipment and items based on the materials and deliver them to the customer.]

[Note: Extraordinary materials have compatibility with each other, such as the mane and teeth from the same magical beast. The higher the compatibility, the higher the probability of successful forging. The higher the quality of the materials, the higher the level of the equipment and items forged.]

[Note: If the forging fails, the materials will not be returned, and the store will not provide any compensation.]

[Note: The commission fee for entrusted forging depends on the level of the materials and must be discussed with the shopkeeper in person.]

“...”

Mule suddenly raised his head, his glittering eyes seeming to try to see the other person's expression through the dragon-head mask. "Equipment forging services... can you really mass-produce excellent-grade items?"

“Mmm.”

Li Ang nodded and said, "But don't have too high expectations. Producing equipment takes some time, and production efficiency isn't very high."

"That's enough, that's enough."

Mule pursed his lips. "Providing equipment forging services for customers using extraordinary materials provided by the customers, to earn rewards..."

"Many secret societies are doing it."

"However, their fees are generally higher. Rare-level items cost 1000-1200, and excellent-level items cost 1800-2200, only a little cheaper than buying directly from the store."

"Um... what's your cost?"

Li Ang said, "1000 game coins. Regardless of the final product's grade. However, the higher the final product's level, the longer it takes, generally between 12-72 hours."

"Is that so..."

Mule didn't rush to give an answer. After thinking carefully, he slowly said, "A large number of players have a bunch of extraordinary materials saved up that they can't convert into combat power."

"Selling the raw materials to stores and secret societies only gets you a little money."

"Entrusting the raw materials to secret societies to forge equipment means being heavily exploited."

"If you can maintain this cost price, then you'll have an overwhelming advantage over other businesses on the market that provide forging services."

"This is much more powerful than peddling magic potions."

"I need to consult some relevant people before I can give a reasonable suggested price."

The information broker was calm on the surface, but his heart was already surging.

The skill of refining magic potions alone was enough to gain a foothold in the square, let alone being able to forge equipment.

And looking at the pile of mud in the middle of the store,

The other party had likely already mastered alchemy skills that could decompose and recombine matter—which explained why he said he no longer needed Mule to collect alchemy skill scrolls at the time.

How could Li Risheng ensure that his combat power was in the first tier,

While mastering three life-skill skills with boundless potential, equivalent to an entire logistics team?

Or is he not a lone wolf player and has organizational support behind him?

Li Ang didn't care about Mule's thoughts.

In fact, the forging furnace can only create rare-level items now,

But his alchemy proficiency is improving quite quickly. By the time the store officially opens, alchemy should have reached the intermediate level,

And after completing the upgrade of the alchemist's magic box, he will be able to forge excellent-level equipment.

Li Ang picked up a Coke, took a sip, and said casually, "In addition to these two, my store can also provide a final service."

"Come with me."

He propped himself up on the freezer door and stood straight, walking straight to the corner of the room. Mule quickly followed.

In the corner of the room was a sealed anti-chemical disinfection channel.

There were metal password doors at both ends of the channel, as well as two layers of sterile plastic curtains.

The ceiling, walls, and floor of the middle tunnel automatically sprayed atomized disinfectant on pedestrians for full-body disinfection.

After passing through the channel, they arrived at the rear part of the store—a surgical operating room.

The walls and ceiling of the operating room were made of electrolytic steel plates, pale blue in color, with rounded corners to prevent dust accumulation.

Lighting, water sources, ventilation filtration and sterilization facilities were all complete, with operating tables, shadowless lamps, anesthetics, monitoring instrument tables, and other equipment.

Li Ang tapped the pale blue wall with his knuckles and said indifferently, "This operating room can provide many types of body modification surgery. The reverse side of the paper lists the surgical procedures."

Mule quickly flipped the paper over and saw a large pile of dense text.

[Do you want to have unmatched power? Do you want to have captivating beauty? Then what are you waiting for! Come and choose our **** store's surgical procedures! We can provide you with the following services!]

[Shopkeeper's Recommendation: Cosmetic Surgery]

(Cheekbone reduction, chin augmentation, nose bridge straightening? No! These are too low-end. We can help you completely change your face, change your body, and even change your gender. No pain! No waiting! No scars! As long as you want it, nothing is impossible!)

(Note: This store is not responsible for portrait rights disputes caused by customers.)

(Note: If the customer's original image is too ugly, medical personnel may require additional mental compensation fees to cleanse their eyes.)

“...”

Mule raised his head and asked, "Why are there asterisks in the store name above?"

"That,"

Li Ang said casually, "I haven't thought of a store name yet."

"After all, it's a source of income, so you have to give the store a better name."

"Let's make the product list first."

"Oh."

Mule nodded. Many stores offered cosmetic surgery services, which wasn't unusual—many players would adjust their appearance to protect their relatives and friends or hide their identities.

He continued to look at the paper.

[Store's Bestseller: Enhanced Body]

(Are you still gaining muscle and losing weight? Exercising hard? That's too out. Choose our surgical service, and within 1 hour, we'll directly transform you from a sedentary otaku into a muscular, Schwarzenegger-like super soldier. Ordinary people's strength, agility, and constitution attributes can be comprehensively increased to 7 points without risk.)

(Note: The enhanced body surgical procedure has three types: youth version, upgrade version, and supreme version. The youth version only improves physical fitness and does not include compressing muscles or modifying body shape. The upgrade version can help customers return to a normal body shape while ensuring that strength and other attributes remain unchanged. The supreme version of the surgical procedure can help customers break through the limits of ordinary people and stack attributes to 8 points or more.)

(Note: The surgical procedure for the supreme version of enhanced body is more complicated and requires consultation with the shopkeeper)

"Hiss..."

Mule inhaled imperceptibly, his fingers trembling slightly.

Many mysterious organizations also operate enhanced body service programs,

However, even official agencies such as the Special Affairs Bureau and the Global Supernatural Alliance can only help ordinary people increase their attributes to 7 points at most, and it takes a lot of time and resources.

More advanced modification surgeries are only open to internal members, and external players cannot access them at all.

And what this paper says compresses the enhancement process to 1 hour,

The most important thing is that it can help customers break through human limits in one step and directly advance to the extraordinary in terms of physical fitness.

"This..."

Mule swallowed and asked softly, "Could it be true?"

"Of course, it's true."

Li Ang said casually, "Cosmetic surgery and enhanced body are just the most basic services. If customers are willing to accept general anesthesia, I can even shorten the surgery time to half an hour."

"In half an hour, people can be reborn and reach the level of the underground boxing champion, Tang Long."
