Atlas of Heaven and Man.

Chapter 315 Snake Slough
After getting off the sightseeing bus, Chen Chuan took only two steps when he heard a splash and saw a figure jumping out of the lake not far away.

The man drew an arc in the air and dived into the water again. Following closely behind him, a blue-black back swayed across the water. It should be a larger creature, and it seemed to be chasing the man.

Lin Yingzi came over and said, "This is a test of one of our internal service projects. There are surface shields and underwater protection nets outside, so it will only be limited to this area."

Chen Chuan couldn't help but think that when he was browsing the Secret Snake Cult platform before, there was a project that required fighting a water snake. Could it be this project?
At this time, his eyes jumped over the water and saw that diagonally opposite the lake, there were densely packed sightseeing cars parked on the shore. People got off there one after another and walked into an oval-shaped building.

Chen Chuan asked: "What kind of service is that?"

Lin Yingzi said: "That is our Secret Snake Sect's ancient health care service, and there are corresponding biological implant adaptations, which are very popular among the upper class people in the central city.

However, Mr. Chen is a fighter, so this kind of service will not be of any use to you. If you want to buy a combat implant, you can talk to Mr. Zou, and the church will tailor it for Mr. Chen."

As she spoke, she handed some information about implant services to Chen Chuan's ID card and said:
"Implants can make up for certain defects and deficiencies of fighters and enhance their combat effectiveness. Even if they are damaged, they can be repaired and replaced in a timely manner. Our implants in the Secret Snake Cult pay great attention to customer experience and fit. With the cooperation of customers, the fit can usually reach more than 50%..."

Chen Chuan doesn't need these things, but there's no harm in knowing some of them. You never know if you'll encounter opponents like this who use the Secret Snake Cult's implants in the future.

The two walked about a hundred steps along the wooden plank road and arrived in front of the glass shed.

Because of the angle from which he had just viewed it, it was obscured by many trees, so Chen Chuan thought that there was only one building. However, when he got closer, he discovered that the building was actually quite long. He had only seen the front end, and there was a long section extending into the botanical garden at the back. The overall shape was like a long snake lying there.

After the two of them walked in through the gate, they saw two forks in the road ahead, which looked like the two forks at the front of a snake's tongue. Lin Yingzi came to the right, made a gesture of invitation, and said, "Mr. Chen, please come this way."

Chen Chuan glanced at another place, and Lin Yingzi introduced: "There are similar services over there, which are aimed at fighters with higher levels."

"The third limit..."

Chen Chuan took another look, then retracted his gaze and walked towards the right passage. There were curved glass panels on both sides, and pleasing plants outside. Sunlight shone through the gaps between the branches and leaves. The narrow space inside did not feel closed, but gave people a sense of security.

After walking for about half a minute, the two arrived at a cabin supported by an arch rib structure. Zou Handan was already waiting there. He smiled and said, "Mr. Chen, welcome."

He came up and shook hands with Chen Chuan, then took him to a thick glass compartment and said, "Mr. Chen, please take a look. This is the snake skin we selected for you this time."

Chen Chuan looked through the glass wall and saw a long snake with a golden body wrapped around an artificial tree trunk. The creature was not small in size, about eight or nine meters long at a rough glance. Although it looked no different from a snake on the outside, it was probably a completely different creature on the inside.

"According to the data you provided, Mr. Chen, we have selected the best snake skins in this batch, and the service time limit can reach 72 hours."

Zou Handan smiled and said: "The longer you stay, the better the service you get, but we have to consider the safety of our customers after all, so customers can exit early at any time."

Chen Chuan received a piece of information on the boundary certificate, which included the weight, length, grade and other information of the snake skin that could be disclosed to the public.

It is specially marked below that the service recipient needs to enter the snake's skin to achieve the service effect. There are two touchable cartilages near the snake's throat. Once they are touched, it will force the snake to have difficulty breathing and open its mouth, and the person can then withdraw from inside.

If they feel unsure, the person in charge will activate field monitoring. If they detect large fluctuations in the field, they will go in, cut open the snake skin, and rescue the person.

Also listed below are the responses required in various situations. Overall, the considerations are very detailed and comprehensive.

Zou Handan said: "The snake slough stores a lot of conditioned nutrients. When it wraps around the client and squeezes him, it will continuously deliver nutrients to the client to help him recover and maintain his strength. If the client takes medicine that helps him practice martial arts, the effect will be even better.

However, these drugs are not included in our service. If Mr. Chen needs them, we can provide them, but they will be charged separately.”

Chen Chuanshuo said: "Can these medicines only be from your religion?"

"Of course not. It's just that our secret medicine is more suitable, while the medicine on the market requires a larger dosage to achieve the original effect."

Chen Chuan nodded: "So, we just need to increase the dosage?"

Zou Handan said: "That's right."

Chen Chuan immediately used his boundary certificate to contact Fan Qingshan of Qingnang Jade Workshop. The call was connected soon. The latter said, "Student Chen, you contacted me because you have any opinions or requests?"

Chen Chuan said, "I need Director Fan to fulfill his promise." Fan Qingshan said without hesitation, "Sure, I can have someone send the medicine you need to Wuyi College."

Chen Chuan said: "I am in the Rift Valley now."

Fan Qingshan immediately responded, "Secret Snake Cult?"

Chen Chuan said: “Yes, I purchased one of their services.”

As the director of the countermeasures department, Fan Qingshan was very familiar with the situations of various companies and groups in the central city. After considering what Chen Chuan had said before, he immediately understood what kind of service this was. He said, "I'll arrange for someone to deliver the medicine right away."

It's just a matter of medicine, which is nothing to Qingnang Yufang. The drug testing data is what's important. It's a pity that this data involves the service projects of the Secret Snake Cult and it is impossible to leak it to the outside.

After Chen Chuan ended the call, he said to Zou Handan, "Someone will deliver the medicine soon."

In less than three quarters of an hour, an armed transport vehicle with the Qingnang Jade Workshop Company emblem drove into the Rift Wave Valley.

Zou Handan was really a little surprised. Among the domestic pharmaceutical companies in Dashun, the only one that could be compared with Tiancong Baicao in terms of size was Qingnang Yufang. In this era when everyone cannot live without medicines, they knew deeply how powerful this kind of pharmaceutical company was.

Chen Chuan just made a contact and asked Qingnang Yufang to deliver the medicine.

He looked at Chen Chuan deeply, and his attitude became more polite. He gave an order and had someone inject the drugs into the snake's body through a hose.

Snake skin can perfectly carry these medicines and penetrate into the body of the client through fusion and squeezing during service. Although there will inevitably be signs of loss of drug efficacy, it can be integrated with the nutrients in the snake body itself, becoming milder and easier to be absorbed by the client.

The quantity delivered by Qingnang Yufang is enough for three people, so people can add as much as they want without hesitation.

After waiting for half an hour, Zou Handan came over and said to Chen Chuan, who was sitting in the lounge, "Mr. Chen, our preparations are complete and the service can start at any time. When is convenient for you?"

Chen Chuan stood up and said, "Now."

Zou Handan gestured, and Lin Yingzi immediately came over to lead the way, taking him to the outside of a cabin.

Lin Yingzi stood at the door and said to him, "Mr. Chen, there are shower rooms and dressing rooms inside. You can also put your personal belongings here. No one else will enter here. There will be service staff waiting at the door. If you need anything, you can ask at any time."

Chen Chuan moved the door open, walked in, and took a look. It was a closed space without windows. There was a door in the front, and behind it was the place leading to the snake skin.

Because the credentials needed to be removed during the service, he first communicated with Gao Ming and said that he might not be able to contact the outside world in the next few days. He also explained to Wu Bei and Lu Fang that if there was any action to be taken, it would be best to wait until his service was finished.

Then he turned off the interface, placed it in an isolation box, and went to the changing room to change into a diving suit-like clothing prepared for him.

This is a very breathable biomembrane suit. It is not completely close-fitting, but is protected like a thick layer of skin. It can provide a buffer for the client during the snake shed and squeeze process, and at the same time help absorb the delivered drugs.

After everything was ready, he walked towards the other side, and the moment he pushed the door open, the second me instantly overlapped with him.

Since his current physical fitness is far stronger than fighters at this level, and he can even compete with fighters at the third level, the snake skin provided to fighters at the second level will have relatively limited effect on him. Therefore, he chose to express it in a low state at this moment, which can also achieve the effect.

As the door opened, there was a cylindrical corridor more than 30 meters long in front of him, which reminded him of a snake path. He walked all the way out from here and finally came to the cabin he had seen outside before.

Looking up, he saw a giant snake coiled on the thick artificial tree trunk, its apricot-yellow eyes staring at him.

Following the instructions from the previous world, Chen Chuan slowly opened his hands. The giant snake seemed to be stimulated and suddenly rushed down, tore open its mouth, and swallowed him in one gulp.
