Chapter 213: Treatment
A large group of people was gathered in Ruidar's room at this moment.
By the bedside, Aierlong was carefully examining the wound on Ruidar's arm; a medicine chest sat at his feet, containing the potions he had prepared recently.
"This should be a type of special energy."
Aierlong held Ruidar's arm, scrutinized it for Along time, and then gave his judgment.
He gently placed the arm back onto the bed, "Since it is energy, I can try using a Purification Spell to see if I can dispel this effect."
The Purification Spell was a spell Aierlong had acquired when he became a Great Mage; using it could dispel dark energy and negative effects.
Aierlong raised his hand, and a faint golden light flickered on his index finger.
He drew quickly in the air, and soon completed the Spell Pattern for the Purification Spell.
With a hum, the surrounding light elements were attracted, surging toward the Spell Pattern to form a pale golden light that shone upon the wound on Ruidar's left arm.
Sss!
Like the sound of a leaking tire, under the radiance of the Purification Spell, black smoke actually rose from Ruidar's wound, as if it were being burned.
Seeing this scene, everyone's eyes lit up; without needing further explanation, they all knew the Purification Spell had certainly taken effect.
"My Battle Qi can pass through the wound now!"
Ruidar revealed a look of pleasant surprise, and the pain at the wound began to subside; the effect of the Purification Spell was truly immediate.
"Aierlong, you are worthy of being our Wubei Territory's great physician. Thank you for this; I'll treat you to a drink later!"
In the room, everyone also began to praise Aierlong's abilities.
In fact, once everyone learned that Aierlong could produce Healing Spell Scrolls, they had taken the initiative to build a good relationship with him.
Seeing Aierlong's new ability now, the great physician's status in everyone's hearts had risen once again.
As Professional Knights, who could guarantee they would never be seriously injured?
With someone like this by their side who could save their life at a critical moment, how could they not build a good relationship with him?
Aierlong said with a smile, "One drink won't do; you'll have to let me drink to my heart's content!"
Luoning stood to the side and also began to smile.
At every banquet, Aierlong was the one who drank the most.
Chahaer had sighed twice, unable to help himself, saying that everyone claimed knights loved to drink, so how could a Light Attribute Magician be so fond of it too?
He even complained that all the wine in the castle had been drunk by Aierlong...
While speaking, the great physician took out a small Dagger and scraped the necrotic flesh from Ruidar's wound clean.
It was thanks to Ruidar's strong willpower that he didn't make a sound throughout the entire process of removing the necrotic flesh.
Immediately after, as several rays of the Healing Spell fell, the fresh wound on his arm slowly stopped bleeding and showed signs of healing.
"This type of puncture wound is too deep and has damaged the muscle inside, so the effect of the Healing Spell will be discounted, but fortunately, the wound area is not large."
Aierlong said while taking a packet of medicinal powder from the medicine chest and sprinkling it onto the wound.
"This is the potent growth-promoting powder I recently formulated, which can accelerate wound healing. However, it is all for Primary and Intermediate Knights; the effect will be discounted when used by Advanced Knights."
Ruidar was a Silver Knight, so the effect of the potent growth-promoting powder was likely not very significant.
"It's enough if it's a little useful."
Ruidar felt the burning sensation of the wound, "Without being troubled by that energy, a wound like this will be mostly healed in ten days."
Once that strange, weird energy was dispelled, the rest was not a difficult matter.
Luoning's hanging heart could finally be set at ease.
"Aierlong, stay in Heitu Town for this recent period. The things in the valley to the north are somewhat strange; if they follow us, your abilities should be able to restrain them."
The Purification Spell could purify this type of energy; he wondered if it could kill that group of monsters directly?
"My Lord, we heard Qiaozhi give a rough account of the situation over there; what exactly is going on?" Aierlong asked.
Since Qiaozhi had already spoken, there was no need for Luoning to hide anything; fortunately, they were all his own people.
"This matter still requires everyone to keep it secret. Only our own people should know; do not talk about it in the territory, and certainly do not let it spread out."
If the territory's residents knew about this, it would surely cause panic, and if outsiders knew, it would increase their curiosity about that valley.
The people present nodded silently, especially Kelami; there were few people who could spread this matter, and only she and Luogena had the motive, after all, they had families behind them.
However, since Luoning had said so, she would not speak recklessly.
Since she had decided to pledge loyalty to Luoning, she should put his interests first.
Next, Luoning explained the situation he knew, and Ruidar, who had recovered some spirit, added to it from the side.
As the person involved, Ruidar's understanding of that group of guys was much deeper than Qiaozhi's.
It was precisely because of this that everyone's mood became even more grave.
"Although that valley is a bit far from us, and although we cannot develop that far recently, those strange things seriously threaten the safety of the territory; we cannot just let it be because they haven't come yet."
Originally, he had still been a bit hesitant, but now Aierlong had given him confidence.
"Once Maiken arrives, and once Ruidar's wounds are fully healed, I am determined to lead a team to clear that place out!"
Luoning stated his thoughts; he looked around at everyone present and said, "At that time, all Transcendental beings of Intermediate rank and above in Wubei Territory, hmm..."
He paused, then changed his words, "Except for Kelami, all remaining Transcendental beings of Intermediate rank and above must be prepared to go together."
For the Primary Knights, Luoning prepared to take Tangmu, Dawei, Geladuo, and Tuomashi.
These four had performed the best among the Primary Knights and were worth cultivating.
Although they might not be able to help much in a fight, taking them would allow them to get training and broaden their horizons.
"My Lord!"
Just then, Kelami stood out, "Why exclude me?"
Asking this made everyone in the room freeze for a moment.
Usually, for such arrangements, Ruidar and the others would execute them by default, and the others who had surrendered to Luoning as members of the savage tribes would likely not ask much.
It was the first time someone had raised a question directly like Kelami.
Luoning did not feel that the other party was a troublemaker; on the contrary, if he were in Kelami's position, he would have the same question in his heart.
As for whether one would voice the question on the spot, that depended on each person's personality.
Some people are unwilling to express themselves and will accept it silently;
Some people are more straightforward and might bring it up on the spot.
"If Luogena were here, he would be brought along by you and me."
Luoning explained, "However, I have arranged other important matters for him, and he should not be able to make it back during our operation this time."
In fact, he was not very willing to let Luogena, Kelami, Geladuo, and others take risks; getting injured would be fine, but if something fatal happened, the families behind them would certainly inquire.
The reason he was willing to bring Geladuo this time was mainly because a Primary Knight would not be entering the fray.
But Kelami was different; she was an Intermediate Knight, and if she were brought along, she might end up participating in the battle.
And since Luogena was not around, it would be difficult to explain if something happened.
Like it is now, letting Luogena run the Caravan and handle transport, and letting Kelami maintain the security of Swamp Town, is quite good.
But Kelami was not willing.
If speaking of strength, among the three Intermediate Knights of Wubei Territory—Kelami, Huoen, and Balindun—she had the strongest strength; now that the latter two were both going, she was being excluded.
If speaking of gender, Jennie was also a woman present, and she was also a Magician; if the other party could go, why couldn't she?
"My lord, since we have chosen to follow you, it means we are willing to fight for you."
Kelami knelt on one knee, "Luogena is Luogena, and I am I. Even if I were to die in battle during this operation, it would have nothing to do with you, and Luogena would certainly not think it was your fault."
She said in a deep voice, "For this operation, I ask that you allow me to follow!"
Luoning smiled; he had not expected the other party to be so eager, and this line of reasoning made it difficult for him to exclude her any further.
"Fine, since that is the case, then I will let you follow this time; go and prepare well!" (End of chapter)
