Where is the magic virus?

After applying for a temporary residence permit on Earth, Nathali, who is temporarily living in Karma Taj, immediately applied for an interstellar optical fiber. Mr. Wang and Hal helped unblock the cable, and it took only two days to connect to the cosmic network.During this period, Nathali also used Hal's cosmic network terminal to submit a communication application to the Vikoa Empire in advance.

"I really don't understand," Hal still felt quite strange, watching Nathali skillfully typing out the application report with his terminal, he couldn't help whispering to Mr. Wang, "Natheri is not a knight of the Vicoa Empire. Is it the head of the regiment? Isn’t he on a mission? Why do you even have to apply for communication?”

She was a lonely girl who jumped several galaxies and ran to the earth, and even had to make an application report in advance to call her home planet. This always made him feel that the Vicoa Empire...was a little too cold.

"I remember. The Vikoa Empire has always been like this. No matter what you do, the procedures and regulations are so cumbersome." Mr. Wang frowned, as if recalling something bad, "When the ancient one was still there, I am very resistant to communicating with the people of the Vicoa Empire."

...There is nothing wrong with obeying the rules, but it is always difficult to get close to people who put the laws and regulations of the empire first in everything.

Thinking this way, Mr. Wang didn't say anything when he saw Naseli seriously writing the application report and hastily sending it to the home planet.

On the other hand, Strange, the patient, did not stop looking for a cure. He wore a lampshade (...), read a lot of magic books, and finally found some reliable cures in an ancient healing magic book. Magic, so he broke the boat and decided to try it one by one.

The first magic made the light bulb on his forehead smoothly change from the traditional oval shape to a fat "U-shape", the wattage did not decrease at all, but he looked at his own U-shaped light bulb head in the mirror, No matter how you look at it, you feel that your head is like a horseshoe.

The second magic, the shape of the horseshoe light bulb did not change, that is, the horseshoe light bulb that originally only emitted a solid color light instantly turned into a colorful neon light, and the red, white and blue lamp post that was constantly rotating reminded him of a barber shop.

When he gritted his teeth to restore the effects of the two spells and cast the last spell, he opened his eyes and felt the warmth and softness of his face with his hands. He was really moved.

The next second, he turned his head to look at himself, and found that his two eyes had turned into two huge light bulbs, and when his whole face seemed to be possessed by Ultraman, he suddenly produced the book called "Three Hundred Years in the Past" The deepest healing magic "the urge to tear apart.

—Damn Vicoa virus!Damn "Teaching You How to Become a Big || Milk in the Magic World"!

Returning to the original shape of the oval light bulb head again, Strange suddenly felt trembling again, compared to the bad shape before, this familiar and classic oval light bulb is not ashamed ==

Immediately afterwards, he tried a lot of magic but failed. Out of self-esteem, Strange locked himself in the study all day to investigate magic. After searching all the magic books in the world and failing to find a solution, he had to rely on Karma Taj's library.

Anyway, he didn't feel sleepy. In the early morning, while the students of Karma Taj and Mr. Wang were sleeping, he quietly went to the library to get materials, but unexpectedly saw the student who was learning English in the library. Nathalie.

Strange: ...I actually saw an alien studying Earth English hard?

An alien actually studies harder than the alien, which is really a sincere magic realism.

In the dark library, only the place where Nathalie is still has a little light. She took a fruit green children's eye-protecting desk lamp (God knows why Karma Taj has this kind of children's desk lamp) to illuminate, lowered her head, and He read the words softly while taking notes in a small notebook.

Noticing Strange's gaze, she turned her head and nodded slightly in the direction of the light bulb as a greeting.

He squinted his eyes, approached a little closer, and saw "20000 English Words Enough for Everyday Use" and "Dictionary of Commonly Used English Words in Medical English" on the blonde girl's desk, as well as the small booklet with densely packed words on her hand. Benzi was silent for a while, and then said emphatically after a while:

"Rote memorization is ineffective. You should start learning by combining affixes with roots. Derivatives are the main word formation in English. From this perspective, it is better than simply memorizing letters."

With an expression of reluctance, Strange took advantage of the opportunity and sat on the seat in front of Natherie, "reluctantly" explained the composition and connotation of words to Natherie for four to 10 minutes before drinking Drinking the lipstick tea, he continued:

"Language is an art. If you try to conquer an art from the most obvious point of view with the idea of ​​shorthand, it is disrespectful to language. If you want to master it thoroughly, you must understand its history and understand its evolution. , understand its composition..."

Nathali: "..."

To be honest, in the four or ten minutes just now, she really worked hard to listen, and she could hear every sentence clearly, but she didn't know what it meant when they were connected together.

Seeing that Strange had the intention to continue, Nassali thought for a while, and could only say, "But memorizing words is faster."

"How can you be so fast-tracked in learning a language?" Strange said righteously, and he tapped Natherie's notebook with his fingers, "What are you doing in a daze? I have said so much, why don't you memorize it quickly come down?"

Nathali was even more puzzled: "Sir, didn't you tell me to learn English quickly, so as not to fail to understand English and cause trouble due to improper translation? Now you tell me to learn the language of the earth slowly, what should I do? Which order?"

Her application has been called back to the Vicoya Empire, and the interstellar video license can be approved within two days. She doesn't hurry up to study now. When the director of the research institute, Ke Na, connects to the video, how can she translate it?

The people on Earth are really strange. They are the ones who want her to learn English quickly so that she can be a translator, and they are the ones who want her to learn the language of the earth slowly and carefully. The same person’s instructions before and after are mutually exclusive. I really don’t understand the thinking of people on earth. model.

Strange: "..."

How angry, the supreme mage who saves the earth is not grateful for teaching you English in person!

Nathalie spent five whole days reading without sleep, and reluctantly memorized the "Dictionary of Commonly Used Medical English Words". It was such a joke that day.

I just don't know why, after she told this, Strange looked very upset?

Nathally thought, it might be that Mr. Strange couldn't find a solution to his baldness in the past five days, so he felt anxious.In fact, there is really no need to be so anxious, I will always be responsible for his body.

Just at this time, the application submitted to the empire was also approved.

Kona, the best friend of Nasseri's mouth, is the dean of the most authoritative medical school in the Vicoa Empire, and also serves as the director of the Institute of Virology. The greatest assistance allowed by the laws of the Li Empire.

So she readily sent over all the virus sample data lost on the earth, and also helped poor Strange research a treatment plan for baldness suitable for people on earth.

[According to your blood samples, the life structures of the Vikoans and the people on Earth are actually very similar.] The cheerful and understanding red-haired director patiently explained in the video, [So theoretically, the Vikoyans The treatment plan can also be used by people on earth. 】

"It's really great. I've studied medicine for so many years, and it's the first time I've heard such an innovative theory."

Through Nathali's translation, Strange couldn't help covering his bulb head weakly, "If the people on Earth can learn the healing method of the Vikoans who take their heads off and put them back in the machine, I volunteered to change the minds of some nasty idiots."

Nathalie turned her head to look at her terminal, and translated word by word: [Strange said it was the first time he heard such an innovative theory, and he said that if he could do it like this, he would change the brains of those who hate it. 】

[Oh, is that so? 】

In the video, Kona’s smile became sweeter and sweeter, [The brain-changing machine on Vikya Star can be transported across the planet to the earth. For your sake, each baldness treatment device is sold at a 700% discount. The same price of 5000 million star coins, 500 million units of interstellar express, [-] million imperial export handling fees, pay first and then ship, do not accept loans~]

Nathali: "..."

[Aren't these therapeutic instruments reimbursed by the empire? 】She glanced at the earthlings around her who didn't understand the language, and instead of translating Kona's words into English, she lowered her voice and asked. [Hal said that the earth does not pass through star coins.They don't have cosmic trade, so they can't get it out. 】

[There is no way, the funds are tight recently, so we can only increase income and reduce expenditure,] Kona shrugged and said carelessly, [If you want to get this part of the reimbursement from the empire, maybe in the next life.Reimbursement is impossible, and this is not the responsibility of the empire. 】

【...No, this is.It should have been our responsibility. 】

Nathali said dryly, pursed her lips, and asked Kona again: [So, a brain-changing machine is worth 200 million stars, right?If I place an order with the empire now, how long will it take to receive the goods? 】

【What--? 】Kona was obviously choked by Naseli's words, and said reluctantly, 【What, you want to pay for them? 】

Nathali didn't speak, she picked up her terminal, pressed a few times on it, and quickly transferred 200 million star coins to Kona's account, [You need to report quickly, Kona . 】

[tsk...]

After receiving the transfer notice, Kona nodded reluctantly, [Okay, I will contact the medical device manufacturer to transfer the goods... But you know, after completing the procedures, plus contacting the cargo ship Delivery will take about a month. 】

[Time is too slow, is there really no other way?For people on earth, baldness seems to be a very serious disease. In addition to becoming bald, people who get the disease will also have symptoms of locking themselves in a closed house and not eating or drinking. 】

Nathali's expression gradually became serious.

(Strange:......I did it out of self-esteem, I don't want to go out and be laughed at by you ==)

[Let’s talk about a solution...] Kona thought for a while, took out a book and started to read:

[Actually, from the very beginning, before the baldness treatment device was invented, Vikeya Star also had a hard time dealing with baldness.It wasn't until the previous director of the research institute discovered through research that after the baldhead virus invades the human body, it will gradually secrete a conductive microorganism, which will link the entire abdominal organs into a complete electrical circuit according to the circulation of the human internal organs. Stimulated by the human body's own bioelectricity, the patient's head is gradually lit up. 】

[That is to say, baldness is actually very easy to treat, as long as any part of the circuit is taken away, the circuit will be broken by itself-but for the Vikoya, no matter which internal organ is taken away, it is fatal , That's why we invented the brain-changing machine to treat baldness. 】

Nathali pondered for a long time, but she could only ask Kona to go through the purchase procedures as soon as possible. After thanking her, she turned off the video and turned to Strange in English, explaining apologetically:

"I have already applied for a treatment device from Kona, but it may be slower. Sir, don't give up the treatment."

Strange: "..."

The Supreme Mage who had been standing beside Natheri looked at Natheri with a brand-new, slightly confused and disgusted look, smiled, and replied with an unpredictable expression:

"Of course I won't give up."

……

Only about five hours later, just in the evening, Strange, who had just walked out of the study, walked straight up to Natherie regardless, and spoke to Natherie in an unquestionable tone. Lee said:

"Take back your ninety-two million star coins. Just now, I already have a clue, and I don't need your brain-changing machine on Vikya."

Nathalie "...?"

She raised her head in confusion, "Sir, how do you know—"

"Don't worry about it, get your money back from that officer."

Strange impatiently took out his mobile phone, dialed a certain number, and interrupted Nathali's question by the way.

Turning his head, he saw Naseli showing a familiar dumbfounded look again, took a deep breath helplessly, and raised his eyebrows at Naseli:

"You don't think you're the only one who has learned English during this time, do you?"

"...Sir, wouldn't you be?"

Facing the blonde girl who seemed to understand something, the Supreme Mage, who claimed to have a super high IQ, restrained his complacency, and said with a little pride: "Vicoa is not that difficult to learn."

"...Similarly, although people on Earth cannot take off their heads for treatment like the Vikoans, there is something in our body that will not endanger our lives even if we cut it off. It can just cut off the circuit of virus production. That thing It's called the appendix."

After all, he called Dr. Helen Zhao:

"—Arrange, I, Stephen Strange, have an appointment for an appendectomy right now."
