An Extremely Simple Treatment

The specially formulated fever-inducing agent described in the Gray-White Text is, simply put, a drug that raises the body temperature quickly while ensuring it remains within a safe range. Its manufacturing method and principle are very simple, but the difficulty lies in the fact that no one could have come up with it.

Having figured this out, Lu Yuan immediately stood up, walked to the medicine preparation table, and quickly named several medicinal herbs.

Upon hearing this, Lin En and the others immediately ordered their men to fetch the medicine. Since these herbs were not rare, they were retrieved quickly.

Lu Yuan was already prepared at the medicine preparation station.

As the medicinal herbs were delivered, under the curious and nervous gazes of Lin En, the Dwarf, and the accompanying apothecaries, Lu Yuan crushed the unremarkable, ordinary medicinal herbs— Crimson Yang Flower powder, Bitterroot Grass, and Warmblood Grass— and added them in proportion to a glass of water, stirring and mixing them without even lighting a fire.

In just a few breaths, Lu Yuan had already prepared two vials of warm medicine with a faint red hue.

Just then, a line of Gray-White Text popped up in the corner of Lu Yuan's vision.

The pharmacists accompanying the team looked at Lu Yuan's method of making medicine and the medicine he produced. Some of them looked at each other in bewilderment and astonishment, unable to figure out how such a medicinal material, which was not even First Order Transcendence material, could cure the current illness.

Lu Yuan offered no explanation. He took out two freshly prepared vials of medicine, quickly returned to the blanket, bent down, lifted the chins of the two young team members with vacant eyes, and fed them both vials.

As the medicine flowed down their throats and into their stomachs, within a few breaths, the skin of the two young team members who had previously looked ashen suddenly became visibly flushed. Their bodies began to heat up rapidly, and fine beads of sweat appeared on their foreheads and noses. Their breathing became heavy and hot, clearly indicating that they had entered the state of fever caused by an illness.

But after this sudden fever lasted for a dozen breaths, the accompanying pharmacist, who had been worried about the two, suddenly widened his eyes. As the temperature inside the two bodies rose, it burned away all the micro-spores that had not yet fully taken root in their skulls. The two team members' damaged memories and consciousness began to recover rapidly, and the spirit of living people reappeared in their previously empty and lifeless eyes.

After a brief period of fever, the eyelashes of the two young team members lying on the ground trembled slightly, and they actually opened their eyes in front of everyone. They sat up, propped themselves up by the blankets, and looked up in confusion, touching their foreheads and sweat-dampened hair. They looked blankly at the people surrounding them and asked:

"What happened?"

Upon hearing this perfectly normal question, the entire main passageway fell into a deathly silence.

Whether it was Lin En standing to the side, the unknown Dwarf craftsman, or the several apothecaries who were sweating profusely and had used every means at their disposal, they all seemed to be frozen in place, and then their eyes were filled with deep shock and heartfelt admiration as they looked at Lu Yuan.

You have to understand that these experienced pharmacists had been struggling for quite a while, and they still couldn't figure out the cause of the illness. The two people were on the verge of death, but Lu Yuan, who was watching from the side, prepared the medicine and brought them back to life. It only took a few minutes in total. He solved the problem completely in no time. His eyesight and skills far surpassed those of everyone present.

The Rock Grand Knight Commander has truly delivered a treasure to them!

Lin En was the first to recover from her shock. She quickly walked to Lu Yuan's side, her eyes no longer showing the previous polite distance, but filled with admiration and curiosity as she asked:

"Advisor Lu Yuan, what kind of potion did you just give them? Crimson Yang Flower and Warmblood Grass. They're just herbs that make you feel feverish. How can something like that cure this illness? What's going on?"

The pharmacists accompanying him also pricked up their ears and stared expectantly at Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan casually placed the two empty medicine tubes back into the tray, glanced at the young team member being helped up by his comrades on the ground, and then explained:

"They inhaled a special powder, which was likely produced by specially cultivated mushrooms. Once inhaled, this powder would adhere directly to the body and skull, thus affecting memory and consciousness."

"If only a very small amount is inhaled, it will not have too much of an impact, only causing memory confusion. But if too much is inhaled, like they just did, it will directly devour a person's memory and consciousness, resulting in the situation they just experienced."

"This is a physical effect, not Pathway or Curse. However, because this spore powder is extremely fragile, it can be resolved simply by raising the body temperature."

"The high-level Antidote Potion and Purification Inscription you just used are all designed for Transcendence Path. However, the methods used by the Heretic do not follow these Pathway, so they are far less effective than potions that can raise body temperature. Of course, I just happened to have seen a similar condition before, which is why it was successful. In addition to learning about Transcendence potions, you also need to have a certain understanding of the human body."

Lu Yuan's simple explanation made the accompanying pharmacists suddenly realize the truth. They also began to reflect on how they had recently assumed that whatever situation they encountered was due to some kind of Curse or Contamination by those Heretic, and most of the potions they prepared were related to Transcendence Path.

Lu Yuan's words made them suddenly realize that they had indeed neglected the human body, the most basic medicines, and medicine.

As he finished explaining these words to everyone, Lu Yuan's brows furrowed slightly, a hint of seriousness rising in his heart.

Because of the [Spores at the Boundary of Illusion and Reality] that Lu Yuan had just analyzed, he became very aware of one thing: the Heretic in this world were no longer limited to things through the Transcendence Path; they even had a thorough understanding of the human body itself, which was undoubtedly a very troublesome matter.

Judging from the reactions of the accompanying pharmacists, the local medicine in this world is indeed somewhat unbalanced. Almost all pharmacists are accustomed to using Transcendence Path to treat patients. If the Heretic use a large number of these bypassing Pathway that specifically target the weaknesses of the human body, the people of Watch City are likely to suffer a great loss.

Especially for those with Knowledge Transcendent, those who have just reached the Third Order of Transcendence or are not yet at the Third Order of Transcendence Knowledge Transcendent will definitely suffer a great loss.
