Ms. Khloe looked at the rejuvenation pills in her hand that had Alex Rockefeller’s saliva on them. In the end, she still returned them to Alex. “Madam Mona’s rejuvenation pills are all priceless. Moreover, its medicinal effects are powerful. You’re an ordinary person without much cultivation. If you take so many at once, I’m afraid you might die.”
“Oh… In that case, I’ll take them one at a time!” Alex said before swallowing a pill.
Two seconds later, he swallowed another pill. Another two seconds after that, he swallowed another one.
“Are you crazy? Are you trying to kill yourself?” Dory snatched the remaining rejuvenation pills in Alex’s hand away.
“My legs have been chopped off. So I’m just trying to grow new ones with these pills,” Alex said.
“You’re not crazy. To me, it looks like you’re retarded. How could your legs grow after being chopped off unless you’re an expert above the Immortalization stage,” Dory said.
“Hmm. You can’t take too many rejuvenation pills. If you do, your veins will rupture and result in death. Hence, I’ll keep these pills safe for you!” she added after a pause.
Dory wanted to have the pills for herself, but she seemed to be slightly embarrassed about it.
Alex looked at her. He didn’t mind.
Soon, the large boat-like vehicle arrived in front of Starborn City’s main gate.
Alex was shocked to discover that Starborn City’s gate was actually up to a hundred meters tall. It was humongous. This was practically a city for giants!
“Without clearance documents, you can’t enter the city on your own. But you’re in my vehicle, and that means you’re exempted from an examination. So once we get into the city, I’ll let you get off. Do you have a problem with that?” Ms. Khloe asked.
“What do I get out of it?” Dory asked.
“You can have the pills from earlier,” Alex said.
Dory was so happy that she jumped up and down. “A man can’t go back on his words. Ask away. I won’t hold anything back as long as I know the answer. Even if you ask me about the color of Ms. Khloe’s underwear today, I can tell you.”
“Dory!” Ms. Khloe’s face darkened.
“I was just giving an example. But, to be honest, I don’t know what color Ms. Khloe’s underwear is either,” Dory said.
“The place I lived in was rather backward and rural. I don’t know much about the outside world. Can you tell me which country Starborn City belongs to? Or perhaps which continent does it belong to?” Alex asked.
