Chapter 417 Arrival at the Healing Center
With the "guidance" from the crow, Lin Yu and Fen quickly found a sanatorium.
Although due to the forest terrain and the presence of various wild beasts, the straight-line distance of 4.3 kilometers took at least half more time to walk in detours.
But no matter how far you go, it’s definitely not too far.
The two soon saw the "healing place" between the dense forest and grassland.
The moment he saw the "healing area", Lin Yu also understood why this thing appeared "randomly".
Because it was a huge tent—the kind that looked like they had a circus going on inside.
There was a huge cart next to the tent, with two ochre-colored reptiles that looked like giant lizards lying in front of it, resting.
This thing really looks like something that can "move" and "flow".
And it is very characteristic of the Black Swamp Realm.
"This thing is actually being moved by a horse-drawn cart," Lin Yu sighed helplessly, "I thought it was some kind of witchcraft or something."
However, compared to Lin Yu, Fen didn't seem to think so much.
"finally reached!"
After seeing the huge tent, Fern could only sigh in weariness from the bottom of his heart.
“It’s so hot!”
She used up the last bit of her strength and rushed towards the tent.
Lin Yu also quickly followed.
Compared to Fern who had been training in the sun for a whole morning, although Lin Yu was also dizzy from the heat, thanks to the various blessings on his body, although Lin Yu was uncomfortable, his physical condition was not affected at all.
He followed Fern to the door of the healing place.
There was a wooden sign saying "No Fighting" at the entrance of the tent. The curtain door made of heavy animal skin dragged on the ground, and it was quiet inside.
Fern struggled to open the curtain and crawled in. The space inside also exuded a wild and rough atmosphere.
But compared to most places in the Black Swamp, this place is already very exquisite.
A thick animal skin carpet was laid on a layer of straw matting, and the walls were covered with various polished animal bones inlaid with metal, like some kind of decoration.
A huge black copper fire burned slowly in the middle of the tent. Surrounding the huge fire were sacks filled with various medicinal herbs and earthenware jars filled with liquid medicine.
Additional straw mats were laid on top of the animal skins in the outer circle, seemingly serving as "beds" for healing.
Although there are about fifty beds here, there are only a few of them occupied: Lin Yu counted and found that there were eight wounded people in total.
Some had their legs completely severed, some had only half of their skulls left, and some had their entire chests deflated, looking like they had been hit by a huge rock...
In short, they were basically barbarians and Xue Luo who were on the verge of death, and they were all seriously injured and on the verge of death at the beginning.
This was obviously not because only eight people were injured on the first day, but because only these eight guys found a place to heal and were brought over by their teammates.
Although from the perspective of a "player", a healing place where fighting is prohibited is a good place to replenish physical strength, have a good rest, and recuperate from one's injuries.
However, this is because the goal of most players is just to obtain five trophies, obtain the most basic "Warrior Certificate", and be able to pass the level.
But those who represent the tribe in the "Glory Festival" are different.
Not to mention the importance the entire Blood Country attaches to this festival and the atmosphere of advocating fighting, from an objective interest perspective, they also need to strive for "ranking".
Every contestant selected to participate is a guy who shoulders the important task of improving the status of the tribe and has a strong sense of identity with his own tribe.
At the same time, they grew up in the Blood Country and were instilled with intangible values since childhood. Many Blood Luo and Barbarians hope to achieve good rankings in the Glory Festival in their lifetime to realize their self-worth and gain self-affirmation and respect for their country.
Therefore, during the Glory Festival...it is such a waste of time to find and enter the healing place!
Broken bones, lost limbs, etc., are all minor injuries in the Glory Festival, and you can just bandage them and continue fighting!
These fighting races have strong physiques after thousands of years of selection. Naturally, they would not come to this healing place for no reason unless they were seriously injured to the point of being on the verge of death.
After all, it takes too much time to go to the healing center for treatment - the medical treatment in this world relies on witchcraft and herbs, and medicine and witchcraft are basically not separated in the current Black Swamp Realm.
Although the Black Swamp itself is home to a great number of magical creatures and the power of witchcraft is very mysterious, the actual healing effect is not bad, but it is indeed too slow to take effect!
Those with minor injuries did not come back, and it was even less likely that they would bother to come to the "healing center" to rest.
The four words "No fighting" are not a good thing for the residents of the Black Swamp Realm, especially the Blood Country!
Therefore, this is why, although the healing area is located in the center and is spacious, there are only a few people inside.
"Hmm, it feels like there's nothing here... But since we're all 'individual contestants', we should be able to get those free weapons anyway."
"I really don't have any melee weapons... Especially in this dungeon, the beasts and monsters are all thicker and bigger than the last."
Fern sighed, and Lin Yu nodded.
"Yes, I'm also curious about how to get those so-called 'weapons'... We arrived not too late, there should still be some left."
Although he already had a spear in his hand, Lin Yu never had too many useful weapons.
"Since this is a healing place, the medical staff should be responsible for this matter," Fern analyzed, "but... where are the medical staff?"
Lin Yu remained silent.
He also didn't know that in the entire tent, apart from the seriously injured patient lying on the "straw mat", wrapped in bandages and applied with herbs, and unconscious, there were only him and Fern.
"Hannah, do you feel the presence of anything?"
"Quack! Director, no!"
After secretly asking Hannah in his heart without any results, Lin Yu felt helpless.
"Then we can only use the Mind-Reading Mirror. Its hidden function can indeed find stealthy individuals...if they are showing any emotional fluctuations."
Lin Yu silently activated the [Mind-Seeing Mirror].
Although there is no clear limit on the number of times this thing can be used, excessive use will still cause mental fatigue and emotional instability.
Especially using it to find people... There is no specific analysis target, and the analysis is done aimlessly, which is more exhausting for Lin Yu.
What's more, if the other party is calm or has some means of interference, Lin Yu will gain nothing.
So he usually doesn't use this method to find people.
However, once used, it is still easy to gain results because most people don’t even think about disguising their own “emotions” when disguising.
For example, now, after Lin Yu looked around the tent, he found the eleventh person in the tent besides the eight injured people and himself and Fen.
But not a human...
Lin Yu wasn't quite sure either.
Because the opponent's appearance is a bit strange.
Lin Yu looked at the leaping "fire" in the black copper stove in the middle of the tent.
The [Mindscope] tells him that the fire is currently 75% comfortable, 15% happy, and 10% anxious and worried.
in other words……
This fire is now alive, conscious, and has emotional fluctuations.
