Chapter 1007: The Unfair Punishment in the Interstellar World (12)
"Our mercenary group has always spoken with strength. The stronger the strength, the greater the gains. Pharmacist Han, you have such a strong talent for making medicine. No matter which mercenary group you join, you will be valued. So you don't have to worry about the treatment. Consider our Weilong Mercenary Group." The female mercenary tried her best to persuade Han Shichu.
"No need. I'm afraid that something unexpected will happen one day and I won't be able to work as a pharmacist and will be kicked out by you. So you don't have to waste your energy on me. I will never join your mercenary group no matter what." Han Shichu was blunt. After saying this, he let the female mercenary leave.
The female mercenary was driven out by her like this, and the smile on her face had long disappeared. Her face was gloomy and frightening. She had not been treated like this for a long time since she became a senior member of the Weilong Mercenary Group. Now she was very angry, and felt that Han Shichu was ungrateful. She had personally invited him, but he dared to refuse. It seemed that he had not been taught a lesson enough...
Han Shichu had no idea that someone was silently trying to teach her a lesson. She received a message from Chen Cidong.
Chen Cidong called her on video. As soon as Han Shichu answered, Chen Cidong asked him anxiously, "Pharmacist Han, can you come to our mercenary group headquarters now? Our mercenaries went out hunting today and encountered level 4 Zerg. Many people were injured, and even the leader was injured and poisoned while saving people. Because it is a rare level 4 Zerg poison, the previous medicine is useless. Can you bring your pharmaceutical tools to the scene to detoxify the leader? Please...
"Level 4 Zerg?" Han Shichu's eyes suddenly widened. She knew that Level 4 Zerg were hard to come by. It was unlikely that people on the Lone Wolf Star would encounter a Level 4 Zerg in a year. If they were unlucky enough to encounter one, they would be unlucky and basically there would be no return.
It seems that the Fengyun Mercenary Group is indeed powerful. Lu Hefeng actually brought all the members back, even though he himself was poisoned.
"I'll be there right away!" Han Shichu agreed immediately. She was very interested in the poison of the fourth-level Zerg.
"Thank you! Just tell me what medicinal herbs you need and I will prepare them for you." Chen Cidong said gratefully.
"Okay, I won't be polite with you. The herbs you might need are..." Han Shichu bluntly listed the names of a series of herbs so that Chen Cidong could prepare them in advance.
More than ten minutes later, Han Shichu appeared at the entrance of the Fengyun Mercenary Group Building. She was immediately shocked by the huge and hideous pile in front of the building. This pile was more than ten floors high and extremely huge. It was obviously the fourth-level Zerg that Chen Cidong mentioned.
Level 4 Zergs are so rare that people are trying to get closer to see them, as they are trying to persuade people to come closer to see the Zerg, even though it looks huge and ugly, but it is already dead.
Han Shichu couldn't help but take a few more glances. This really opened her eyes. If Lu Hefeng wasn't in a hurry to detoxify, she would have wanted to stay here and study this fourth-level Zerg.
"Pharmacist Han, you are finally here! Come with me to see the captain." Chen Cidong saw Han Shichu carrying a large medicine box on her back, and hurried forward to greet her.
Han Shichu followed him quickly to Lu Hefeng's dormitory.
"Pharmacist Han, please check on the captain quickly. He can't stay awake anymore." Chen Cidong said worriedly.
Han Shichu put down the medicine box and saw Lu Hefeng lying quietly on the bed, his perfectly shaped eyes tightly closed, and his thin lips were no longer the usual bright red color, but had turned purple-black, a very ominous color at first glance.
"How long has he been poisoned? When did he lose consciousness?" Han Shichu quickly took his pulse and used his mental power to probe into his brain. He found that his spiritual sea was closed and did not allow people to enter. So he had to give up and began to check other symptoms on him.
"He was bitten by that level 4 Zerg about five hours ago, and lost consciousness after returning here, about half an hour ago. He forced himself to come back, and only collapsed when he knew everyone was safe. Pharmacist Han, you must find a way to detoxify the captain." Chen Cidong said with a frown.
"I'll try my best, but I've never detoxified a level 4 Zerg poison, so it'll take some time." Han Shichu explained, then he took out a small medicine bottle from his space, poured out a black pill the size of a finger, and said, "This is the antidote I made myself. It can detoxify ordinary poisons. I haven't tried it on Zerg poison, but it may relieve the symptoms and delay the spread of the venom. Do you agree to let him take this pill first?"
"This... won't it backfire if I take it, and make the poison worse, right?" Chen Cidong asked hesitantly, looking at the pill.
"No, it's useless at best." Han Shichu replied, "But I'm confident that it can alleviate the poison of the Zerg."
"Then give it to him." Chen Cidong closed his eyes and said with all his might, "I hope you didn't lie to me. If the leader is gone, I will fight you to the death."
"Don't worry." After Han Shichu said this, he stuffed the pill in his hand into Lu Hefeng's mouth without hesitation, and then pressed the acupoint on his neck, and the pill slid into his throat and into his stomach.
Chen Cidong stared at Lu Hefeng nervously and even held his breath. If the situation was not urgent, he would never agree to let Han Shichu use such a pill of unknown purpose to gamble with the captain's life.
Fortunately, he was not wrong in his bet. After a while, Lu Hefeng's complexion improved significantly. The color of his lips changed from purple-black to light purple, and his breathing became shallower. Chen Cidong breathed a sigh of relief. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and realized belatedly that he was sweating.
"Pharmacist Han, is the captain okay now?" Chen Cidong said to Han Shichu expectantly, "Your pill is really effective."
Han Shichu shook his head: "Don't be so optimistic. His poison has not been cured, it has just been relieved. This has bought me some time to develop an antidote for him."
Chen Cidong's heart sank again, but he still said to Han Shichu very seriously: "Pharmacist Han, if you need any help, just tell me."
"I won't be polite with you." Han Shichu said, and plunged into the study of Zerg venom. She drew a tube of Lu Hefeng's blood, tested it with instruments, and quickly found various medicinal materials, extracted the medicinal juice, and began to prepare the antidote.
While helping, Chen Cidong ordered others to bring the necessary medicinal materials and instruments, and he did not dare to relax at all during the whole process.
In addition to being poisoned, Lu Hefeng also suffered injuries in many parts of his body that needed to be cleaned and bandaged. He also had to treat these external injuries for Lu Hefeng.
