Victory Blessing Paste

In the Wounded Soldier Camp, Bai Pu bustled around after the medical officer, occasionally asking questions and receiving answers.

This was due to his prestigious family background, even if he was just a distant relative. The Wu County Lu Clan was a family of scholars, a powerful aristocratic clan, while ancient physicians were considered lowly servants.

In addition, Bai Pu spoke with humility and courtesy, and had a handsome appearance (hidden high charm value). Physician Liu was not averse to Bai Pu's eagerness to learn, and even kindly pointed out the shortcomings in his use of medicine and preparation methods.

[You have treated a Sun Quan Army wounded soldier. Your Merit Points in the Sun Quan Army camp +1.]

This notification was a pleasant surprise. He didn't expect to gain Merit Points without participating in the front lines, and Merit Points could eventually be converted into college entrance examination scores!

Not only did he gain Merit Points, but Bai Pu's secondary profession, Alchemist, was also slowly increasing in experience, thanks to the guidance of the Native, Physician Liu.

If it were an ordinary Awakened examinee, they might be satisfied with staying in this Wounded Soldier Camp. After all, it was a win-win situation to gain Merit Points and secondary profession experience! However, Bai Pu didn't think so. He initially acted as a medical staff member, not for the sake of these Merit Points—he was trying to find a way to escape, to leave the Red Cliffs battlefield!

And to escape without deserting, without leaving the Sun Quan Army camp.

In the Three Kingdoms era, military service was heavy, and there were many deserters. Therefore, the various forces had very severe punishments for deserters. Not only was there a "law for arresting deserters" to hunt them down, but their families were also implicated! Basically, desertion was equivalent to cutting oneself off from the clan.

Bai Pu's prestigious family background, with its +1 starting level, was very important. It was the cornerstone of his plans! He certainly wouldn't give it up.

While taking care of the wounded, Bai Pu deliberately worked twice as hard, saving Physician Liu a lot of effort. Physician Liu's favorability towards Bai Pu naturally increased.

In his conversations with Physician Liu, Bai Pu intentionally or unintentionally inquired about the basic information of the Red Cliffs scenario, such as where the medicinal materials for the Wounded Soldier Camp were transported from, and whether there were any drugs that could greatly enhance the combat power of the soldiers, and so on.

Physician Liu stroked his beard and said, "This camp is located at Sanjiangkou. All military supplies and medicinal materials are transported upstream from Chaisang City to the Fankou Barracks. As for drugs that can enhance the combat power of soldiers, there are some."

Then, Physician Liu showed a bottle of light yellow ointment and said, "This thing is called Victory Blessing Paste. When dissolved in Water and drunk, the soldiers will have great Strength and will not fear swords and spears. It is extraordinarily effective."

"There is such a thing!" Bai Pu took the Victory Blessing Paste and quickly received a prompt from the Spirit Realm Will.

[Victory Blessing Paste: Grade A war item, when dissolved in Water and drunk, grants a Strength +3, base armor +8 buff, lasting 180 minutes. After the effect ends, a weakened state of all attributes -3 will be entered, lasting for one natural day.]

[Hint: You cannot take the Victory Blessing Paste out of the Three Kingdoms: Red Cliffs plane scenario.]

This thing is a bit like a stimulant, and the side effects are quite obvious. It's not very useful for Awakened, but it's a miracle drug for the army.

So it is considered a large-scale war item. It is estimated that a bottle of Victory Blessing Paste, when dissolved, can be drunk by a large number of soldiers.

"I wonder how this ointment is made?" Bai Pu carried out his persona of being eager to learn.

He felt the value of this war item. If he could learn the production method, it should be very beneficial for his Alchemist profession to advance!

Physician Liu smiled without answering, obviously knowing something, but the relationship (favorability) between the two had not yet reached the point where Physician Liu would easily reveal such highly valuable information.

At this time, a Green Armor Squad Leader led two people over and said, "Physician, these two have also read medical books and know how to use medicine to treat injuries."

Bai Pu glanced at the two people. He saw that they were one man and one woman, both wearing ordinary soldiers' coarse linen clothes. From the outside, there was nothing unusual. But their energy and spirit were completely different from ordinary low-level soldiers!

These two are Awakened examinees, from the same place as Bai Pu!

It is possible that they heard about Bai Pu entering the Wounded Soldier Camp, and after a little speculation, they thought of the benefits, so they came to imitate him.

The two also glanced at Bai Pu, obviously knowing that Bai Pu was here.

Physician Liu said strangely, "Talented people who are proficient in medicine are always rare. The Wounded Soldier Camp has always been short of manpower. It is naturally a good thing that there are several more helpers today."

Physician Liu was about to test them immediately, but the male Awakened raised his hand and said directly, "Physician, there is no need to test us. Please see our methods!"

As he spoke, the two came directly to a wounded soldier that Bai Pu was taking care of.

The wounded soldier had an arrow wound in his abdomen, which had festered and suppurated, causing half of his lower abdomen to swell up high. It was hard and unyielding to the touch, causing unbearable pain. Bai Pu was in the process of cutting open the wound to drain the pus and blood.

The male Awakened directly stepped forward and sprinkled a handful of medicinal powder. The female Awakened poured a few drops of scarlet liquid into it, and the medicinal powder immediately fused, turning into a light red protective film that slowly seeped into the wound.

The wounded soldier's groans ceased, and the arrow wound on his lower abdomen actually smoothed out slowly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Bai Pu frowned slightly. To gain the trust of the medical officer, these two actually used precious Alchemy Potions! Alchemy Potions were products of Earth's spirit energy civilization, refined by Alchemists who collected Spirit Realm medicinal materials and used alchemical knowledge learned from the Source Plane. They were quite expensive.

The use of items was strictly limited in this year's Spirit Realm Exploration Subject of the college entrance examination.

The authorities had long stipulated that candidates could only carry two bottles of healing and recovery Alchemy Potions as supplies. The use of all other items was prohibited.

This regulation also stemmed from the restrictions of the Spirit Realm Will. For example, Bai Pu's C+ grade item, [Smuggler's Relic], in his storage space was currently grayed out and unusable. Only his equipment and two bottles of potions were available.

Physician Liu did not show any surprise at this scene. He only said with considerable regret, "This kind of spiritual medicine has the same miraculous effects as the healing elixirs refined by Taoists. However, using it for ordinary arrow wounds is a bit of a waste."

The two new examinees had intended to impress the medical officer in this way, but they did not expect Physician Liu to be knowledgeable and have seen similar medicines! They were somewhat embarrassed for a moment, and laughed awkwardly.

The Green Armor Squad Leader asked, "Physician, can these two be considered to have passed the assessment?"

Physician Liu sighed softly, "I'm afraid spiritual medicines are precious, and the two of you cannot use such methods often. Considering that you generously helped the wounded, stay here! Learn how to treat wounds properly, and do not underestimate the basics just because you have spiritual medicines."

In this way, the two Awakened examinees also entered the Wounded Soldier Camp of Sanjiangkou Barracks.

However, the two were clearly different from Bai Pu. They did not have a secondary profession like Alchemist to rely on. Physician Liu's explanations of how to prepare medicinal materials and how to use medicine were like listening to heavenly scriptures to them, as they lacked the foundation. Naturally, they did not learn much.

In addition, the two did not have the added advantage of Bai Pu's prestigious background. Physician Liu could only sigh and have them take charge of washing wounds, cutting sores, squeezing pus, and other assistant work.

These two were indeed elites who ranked among the top batch of millions of examinees. They did not even frown at such dirty and bloody work, and were very diligent.

If not for this, the two would definitely not be able to gain a foothold in the Wounded Soldier Camp.
