Apocalyptic Slacker Stew

As a fair-skinned and beautiful low-level alchemist, Gu Fan was timid and feared death, only wishing to earn a modest sum of money.

After transmigrating to an Earth overrun with monsters, Gu ...

Chapter 24

At two o'clock in the morning, the spiritual power in Gu Fan's body returned to its perfect state.

Just like a person who has had a full meal and a good sleep, Gu Fan at this moment felt so refreshed that he just wanted to find something to do. It was impossible for him to lie down and sleep anyway.

After sitting in the tent for a while, Gu Fan thought of the wounded in the camp, especially the few wounded she met during the day who could not be cured in one go.

Gu Fan stood up and walked out of the tent.

The soldiers on guard nearby noticed her, but knowing her identity, they did not stop her from entering the tent.

Most of the wounded were sleeping, and those who were awake were mostly suffering from pain from their wounds.

Gu Fan signaled them not to speak. She walked over one by one and treated them. Minor injuries were healed in one go, and serious large-scale injuries were treated to the point where they were no longer painful.

The whole process lasted for an hour. At three o'clock in the morning, Gu Fan came to the B-level mutant whose half body was burned.

He had already woken up. Seeing Gu Fan about to treat him, the man whispered, "I can recover slowly. Please save your energy to help others."

Gu Fan smiled and said, "There's still time. I'll cure you and then I'll go catch up on some sleep."

After saying that, Gu Fan cast a healing spell on him.

The black scabs on the man's body fell off quietly, revealing a layer of newly grown light pink skin and a series of hideous scars.

Gu Fan's healing technique does not have the function of removing scars.

She observes men's attitudes.

The man in his forties was initially happy that his physical strength had returned to normal. However, looking at the mottled scars on his arms, he suddenly laughed bitterly and said, "My little daughter would probably be scared if she became like this."

After confirming that he was concerned about his appearance, Gu Fan took out a bottle of white pills and said, "Scar Removal Pills. After taking them, you can remove scars from your body. You have quite a lot of scars, and I don't know how many pills you need to take to heal them. This bottle contains ten pills. Take them first. If you need more, you can buy more from me."

Considering Gu Fan's performance yesterday, the man had no doubt about the effectiveness of the scar-removing pill. He only asked, "How much is this bottle?"

Gu Fan said: "One hundred merit points for one."

The man immediately transferred a thousand points to Gu Fan. For those of them who were special abilities serving in the military, they had plenty of merit points.

After the payment and goods were settled, Gu Fan was about to leave when a soft female voice suddenly came from behind him: "Doctor Gu, I also want to buy scar removal pills. Do you have any more?"

Gu Fan turned around and saw a female psychic lying on a hospital bed. She was about thirty years old and had an old scar on her face.

Gu Fan sold her another one.

This is a big deal now. More and more people are joining in and want to buy it.

Seeing more and more psychics awake, Gu Fan quickly explained, "I need to catch up on some sleep to recover my mental strength, so I won't be selling medicine for now. However, I'll open a pharmacy at the foot of Phoenix Mountain when I return to base. If you're interested, please go check it out when you get back to base. Right now, we're focusing on clearing out the monsters, so you all must stay well."

After saying that, Gu Fan slipped away, leaving the wounded to whisper to each other and discuss Dr. Gu's medicine.

When the sky was just getting light, Gu Fan's spiritual power was replenished again.

The superpower army continued to kill monsters, and the medical team that Gu Fan was in moved forward one mile as a whole to shorten the time it took for the wounded to travel to and from the medical team.

With the protection of the army, Gu Fan didn't have to worry too much about safety and could concentrate on treating the wounded.

The first four days of rescue were busy but stable. Gu Fan exhausted his spiritual power during the day and practiced to replenish it at night. Although he exhausted his spiritual power just like on Phoenix Mountain, the sense of crisis may have played a bonus role. Gu Fan clearly noticed the improvement in his practice speed. The effect of one day of practice here was even stronger than ten days of practice on Phoenix Mountain.

The more gains you make, the more motivated you will be.

However, on the fifth day, the condition of the wounded suddenly changed significantly. The number of high-level psychics began to increase, and their injuries were serious.

One of them, Major General Li, told Gu Fan that high-level monsters are also intelligent. At first, everyone resisted the human superpower army in their own territory, but after realizing that the superpower army was difficult to deal with, the A-level monsters quickly formed an alliance and jointly led the B and C-level monsters to resist and hunt the superpower army.

Every time we clear out monsters, we will face this kind of development, just like humans. Even if they are enemies, when their survival is threatened by a third party, the enemies can temporarily become friends.

Monsters are natural hunters, and some of their combat skills are not inferior to those of humans.

Most deaths also occurred during these last three days.

Gu Fan was a little worried about the Galaxy Team.

The five of them have always served as the vanguard and will be the first to withstand the counterattack of the Monster Alliance.

After a busy morning, other medical team members found time to eat lunch and replenish their physical and mental strength. Gu Fan, with the support of the Qigong pills, continued to treat the wounded with all his strength.

"Gu Fan, Gu Fan, there's a frontline medic over here. Come over and take a look. Try to get her back to health as soon as possible!"

Hearing the medical team leader's anxious voice, Gu Fan immediately ran over.

A frontline medical soldier is often responsible for treating hundreds of wounded soldiers. If one falls, the casualties on the battlefield he leaves may increase by dozens or even hundreds of times.

When Gu Fan rushed to the frontline medical soldier, he found that her face had begun to turn black.

The frontline personnel who escorted her back said in a serious and concise manner, "We were ambushed by a swarm of A-level spiders in a forest. She was poisoned by the spider. Besides her, there are ten more people behind her. Send them to her immediately."

Gu Fan's heart sank.

Poison is harder to treat than wounds. Wounds will not spread in a short time, but toxins will flow throughout the human body with the blood. The healing skills of low-level monks are mainly effective for flesh wounds and are difficult to work on toxins, not to mention the poison from high-level monsters.

"Does the army have an antidote for Class A spider venom?" she asked as she examined the wounded.

Frontline personnel: "Yes, but it can only temporarily suppress the toxin attack. These eleven people have been given the antidote, which can keep them alive for 24 hours. If all the toxins cannot be forced out within 24 hours, they will die from the poison. The other A-level medics are busy at the front line and will not be able to come until tonight. The other wounded can wait. If you have a way, it's best to wake her up first and let her return to the team as soon as possible."

Gu Fan didn't say anything.

Her spiritual sense had already penetrated into the female medic's body.

The female medic's wound was on her ankle, so it can be inferred that it was a sneak attack launched by a poisonous spider underground.

Now the black poison has penetrated into all her organs through the blood, but it is wrapped in a layer of membrane and cannot affect the human body for the time being.

Gu Fan tried to perform healing magic.

The wound on the female medic caused by the poisonous spider healed, but the poison was barely removed.

Gu Fan took out a bottle of low-level detoxification pill she had made from her storage jade bracelet and forced the female medical soldier to swallow it.

If it's a C-level poisonous spider, this detoxification pill will be very effective, but...

Seeing that the entrance of the elixir only slowly made the black poison lighten a little, Gu Fan looked up and decisively admitted his shortcomings: "Sorry, my level is too low. I can only heal injuries, but I can't do anything about this kind of poison."

The medical captain's face changed drastically, but due to his level limit, he couldn't blame Gu Fan for anything.

The brows of the frontline personnel standing by were twisted into the shape of the Chinese character "川".

Just as Gu Fan was about to leave, the medical captain suddenly grabbed her and said, "Gu Fan, you're very efficient at healing. Now that they're down with a medic, can you take over first?"

Gu Fan refused without hesitation: "Sorry, one of the conditions for me to join the army is not to participate in the front-line clearing."

The medical team leader thought of Lu Ya’s words that night.

But conditions are conditions. He tried to appeal to Gu Fan's emotions and reason with him: "I can send two A-level psychics to protect your safety. Apart from healing the soldiers, you don't have to do anything else. Is that okay?"

Gu Fan didn't want to say more and shook his head.

Ten A-level psychics have fallen. Why should she believe that the two sent by the medical captain to protect her will not be injured?

Soldiers will obey military orders, but Gu Fan is not a soldier.

“I’ll go!”

A Class B medic with half of his calf broken suddenly stood up from his bed, his eyes firm as he spoke.

As soon as he finished speaking, the frontline worker ran over as fast as he could, carried him on his back and set off.

The medical team leader looked at Gu Fan, unable to hide his disappointment.

Gu Fan continued to treat others.

She was completely focused, and only during a short break did she realize that the wounded who had previously admired her healing power and longed for her elixirs now looked at her with coldness and even contempt.

Gu Fan lowered his eyes, as if he didn't notice.
