Vol 2 Chapter 199 Follow-up Care
Under the black sky, the enormous serpent body gradually ceased its writhing. The two fallen snake heads struggled weakly, spewing poisonous blood and flicking their tongues, only stopping their movents after a long while.
Sylutia slowly descended, the butterfly wings extended from her back gently fluttering as she drifted down to the ground.
By now, Taos had exhausted all his strength, kneeling on one knee, while the surrounding knights, after the victory, could no longer withstand their ntal and physical exhaustion, collapsing to the ground.
However, this was not an environnt where they could rest peacefully. The invisible Distortion still corroded everyone. Sylutia silently recited an incantation in her heart, then a faint Luminous Moon dew sprinkled down, purifying the surrounding environnt and protecting the group of valiant knights.
She ticulously treated the severely wounded knights, purifying their heavily corroded bodies, then distributed water and food to everyone, helping them recover their strength.
Several days later, the expedition team that had subjugated the 'Twin-Headed Serpent: Blackquis Larva' all returned. Many mbers were placed in the Sunblaze Garden for recuperation. This location was closest to the abyssal zone, and its pure environnt was also suitable for treating those mbers deeply affected by the erosion.
"Lady Tia." A seemingly young girl walked over. She wore a uniform with a white base and green trim, with a small White Scroll Herb Badge pinned to her chest.
"What is it, Fuli?"
"Another new casualty has been brought in. His injuries are very severe. We've already perford ergency treatnt, but the erosion within his body is intense and requires purification."
"I understand."
Afterwards, Sylutia followed this girl to the infirmary within the garrison to treat the newly arrived casualty. Roughly an hour later, she finished and walked out of the infirmary.
After walking out following the young girl, the light green-haired girl looked at Sylutia with admiration.
"Lady Tia is amazing. You always manage to easily help everyone remove the Distortion's erosion."
"Thank you for the complint." Sylutia initially wanted to be modest, but after her thoughts circled twice, she couldn't find any suitable words. She couldn't very well say she was just lucky.
The two continued walking in the garden as Sylutia listened to Fuli recount recent situations.
This light green-haired girl was from the 'White Scroll Herb Jar,' a pharmacist of the 'Verdant Nectar' Aspect, skilled in concocting various potions and proficient in treating external injuries. She was a rising genius of the 'White Scroll Herb Jar.'
To be called a genius in her presence, Fuli's abilities were naturally not lacking. At only 22 years old, she had reached the 'Third Tier: Verdant Nectar' and had now mastered the cultivation of 127 dicinal herbs, the preparation of 16 Second Tier potions, and 2 Third Tier potions.
Because they needed to care for the casualties, the White Scroll Herb Jar had dispatched many personnel here. Fuli was among them. Since she was around the sa age as Sylutia, and there were many areas requiring cooperation during treatnt, the two quickly beca familiar.
Through their interactions during this period, Fuli's admiration for Sylutia grew stronger and stronger. That look in her eyes was as bright and sparkling as a fan seeing a celebrity in Sylutia's previous life's world.
"How does Lady Tia manage to balance learning so many things? I spend a lot of ti just studying pharmacology and the properties of dicinal herbs, and occasionally I still have to train to improve my ntal Power."
"This... probably because I learn relatively quickly?" This point was indeed true. When she practiced abilities, the increase in completion and proficiency was roughly five tis or more that of an ordinary person.
"Uh, saying it that way might not be good. Perhaps it's because I observe things more ticulously." Sylutia felt her previous statent might have sounded sowhat arrogant and boastful, after all, Fuli was also a very hardworking girl.
"Lady Tia doesn't need to be modest. I understand." Seeing this young lady being so gentle, not wanting to hurt her self-esteem, Fuli felt her admiration for Sylutia increase by several more degrees.
Lady Tia is so gentle and also so clever, learning everything quickly and effortlessly.
Seeing this, Sylutia couldn't very well argue further. Afterwards, the two chatted about matters related to dicinal herbs and materials. Since both were of the 'Verdant Nectar' Aspect, they had many common topics. Occasionally, they could even exchange novel experiences, so their conversation was very pleasant.
"Thank you, Lady Tia, for talking with for so long. I might have disturbed you. I'll go to work now." Only now did Fuli belatedly realize it was getting late, leaving in a bit of a fluster.
Watching her jogging back towards the infirmary direction, Sylutia couldn't help but reveal a slight smile. This girl is quite cute.
...
Because of the death of the 'Twin-Headed Serpent: Blackquis Larva,' the degree of Distortion erosion in the areas near the Darkmist Mountains greatly diminished, making the subsequent advancent work much easier.
Roughly another two months passed. Nearly a hundred guiding beacons on the periphery of the Darkmist Mountains were simultaneously lit. Following the Ritual Magic Array arranged by the Hidden Grove Alliance, they began purifying this region.
"According to the research reports from the Scholars, this region should be preliminarily purified in about half a year. Although the environnt will be far less pure than the core regions, more outposts can be established and garrisoned here."
"The Alliance plans to construct twenty-seven new outposts in the Darkmist Mountains region in the coming years to exploit and utilize the resources here."
"Oh, right, Tia. According to the aning conveyed by the upper echelons of the Alliance, they are inclined to develop the 'Sunblaze Garden' into a treatnt and research-type garrison. I wonder if you agree." Green put down the letter in his hand and looked at the young lady by the windowsill.
"The reason is also relatively simple. The environnt here is very pure, very suitable for recuperating mbers affected by Distortion erosion. Moreover, the 'Bright Fla Cornflower' that grows here can also be used to concoct potions for removing erosion."
"I understand. I agree, no objections." Sylutia turned around and nodded.
"Then I'll draft a reply for you and report it up." This young Scholar pushed up the special glasses on the bridge of his nose.
Four months later, the combat personnel receiving treatnt at the Sunblaze Garden gradually recovered. The previous combat missions for advancing and pioneering into the abyss also ca to a temporary end.
Inside the white Western-style mansion of the garden, Sylutia t Taos, who had co to express his gratitude, along with more than ten accompanying 'Iron Knights.'
"You are too kind, Lord Taos. At that ti, I only helped a little. It's far from being considered a great contribution." Sylutia, wearing a long white gown with red flas, bowed slightly in return.
"Haha, you are still so modest." Seeing this, Taos chuckled, then the two ended their polite formalities and sat down by a nearby tea table.
"I ca this ti not only to thank you for helping restrain the Blackquis giant serpent at that critical mont that day, but also to thank Tia for ticulously caring for my children during this period, pulling them back from the brink of death." Recalling the dangerous scene that day, he couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.
"These fellows were still too reckless. If my sword stroke had missed that day, I'm afraid the 'Ironwall Crown Furnace' faction would no longer exist." The Knight Order that went to support the abyss that day comprised almost the entire active force of the 'Ironwall Crown Furnace.' If they had all perished, the remaining Second Tier mbers staying at the garrison would have found it difficult to inherit the faction's legacy. The consequences would have been unimaginable.
"Although it was indeed dangerous at the ti, I was also moved by their heroic act." Sylutia recalled that day.
She grew up in an era of peace in her previous life, only seeing intense battlefields and warriors who disregarded life and death on television. So, when facing those knights who fearlessly charged forward, disregarding life and death, upholding their oaths that day, a feeling that brought tears to her eyes also rose in her heart.
Because she witnessed that scene as fervent as poetry, it also made her gradually believe that the deeds she had heard in history and legends might have also, like today, illuminated the people of that ti.
