Chapter 336: Healing the Wyvern
Translator: Simple MTL Editor: Simple MTL
However, it was inevitable. Other than the Hundred-Eyed Rock and the Ash Wolf, which were both low-and middle-tier Gold-rank source beasts, the rest of the source beasts’ corpses were all Black Iron and Silver-rank.
Moreover, their talents were very average, and their strength was also very poor.
The probability of source crystals appearing on their bodies was naturally very low.
Other than the poison-attribute source crystals, Lugh also wrapped four thumb-sized poison sacs with a piece of cloth that he pulled from his body.
The crystal and the poison sacs were taken from the body of an ordinary toad. These things were just in line with Lugh’s cultivation of Big Mouth.
After putting these things away, Lugh, with the virtue of not wasting them, let the Wyvern directly swallow the usable source beast’s corpse.
He also used the Fast Food Digestion of the Wyvern tribe to turn its flesh and blood into its own nutrition and source energy.
The Wyvern used the source energy obtained from devouring the flesh and blood of source beasts to activate the other race talent of the Wyvern, Insect Race Self-Healing, and recover all the less serious parts of his body.
The broken beetle armor, broken wings, numb toes, and the remaining poison in its body could not be recovered by relying on the Insect Race Self-Healing that was still at the intermediate level of Big Mouth.
He still needed to think of other ways.
However, the speed at which the Wyvern healed its wounds still amazed Lugh. The combination of Insect Race Self-Healing and Fast Food Digestion was simply too powerful.
Almost all the races that had both of these racial talents were the flies.
And the flies were generally weak. These two talents were naturally forgotten by people.
The Wyvern’s race quality was Gold-rank, but that did not mean that its potential in the future could only be Gold-rank. With its potential and these two innate abilities, it would definitely be like adding wings to a tiger in the future battle experience.
Lugh quietly waited for Big Mouth to finish devouring the source beast’s flesh and blood. Then, he ordered Big Mouth to pull up the corpse of the Hundred-Eyed Rock that had fallen into the pit.
Then, he used Big Mouth’s claw to continuously attack its body with b.l.o.o.d.y claws.
Crack!
Under Big Mouth’s constant efforts, cracks began to appear on Hundred-Eyed Rock’s body. In the end, the Hundred-Eyed Rock broke into pieces of rocks of different sizes.
Following that, a small brown source crystal rolled out from the small pile of rocks. It was a rock-type source crystal of the eighth grade. A soldier-type source beast might drop an eighth grade source crystal.
As for the elemental-type source beast, the Hundred-Eyed Rock, after losing the support of the source crystal, its scattered rock body instantly lost its hardness and turned into a pile of gray dust.
After Lugh picked up the rock-type source crystal, he only took a glance at it before putting it away. This source crystal would be of no help to Lugh’s Wyvern’s cultivation plan. Thus, Lugh decided to sell it when the time came to purchase the resources he needed.
After all this was done, there was nothing left for Lugh to miss. Lugh decided to bring Big Mouth to search for herbs that could heal its injuries. He also wanted to learn more about his new partner through the battle with the source beasts.
With the first source beast, Lugh finally didn’t have to cower like a mouse crossing the street. Lugh called out to Big Mouth and told it to follow closely by his side. After it was responsible for protecting him, he chose a direction to move in.
Big Mouth followed Lugh’s orders loyally. Its blood-red compound eyes moved all around. Big Mouth relied on its excellent observation ability to guard the surroundings, and it was ready to send a threat warning to Lugh at any time.
Lugh was also looking around warily, using his source energy to slightly increase his perception to detect a threat. Although Lugh had Big Mouth protecting him now, he still didn’t dare to let his guard down.
The Forest of Despair was filled with jungles. There were also towering ancient trees growing all over the place. The area that could be seen was at most a dozen meters wide, greatly restricting his vision. Even Big Mouth couldn’t guarantee a 100% warning.
There were many poisonous snakes and Fierce Beasts in the forest. Even experienced Beast Masters would die if they weren’t careful.
Although they were only walking around the periphery of the Forest of Despair, there were still many source beasts that could threaten Lugh.
After all, Big Mouth’s current level was only level five. It hadn’t reached tier-1 yet, and was still a young source beast.
Even if it had the potential of a Gold-tier species, it still had to act cautiously with its tail tucked between its legs before it grew up.
Fortunately, the source beasts in the periphery were generally weaker. Most of them were ordinary source beasts that could not even be compared to Black Iron-tier ones.
Therefore, the number of source beasts that could threaten Big Mouth in the periphery could be counted on one’s fingers. As long as Lugh’s luck was not too bad, he would be able to walk safely in the periphery of the Forest of Despair.
Time pa.s.sed. Lugh searched for herbs in the outer area. Before he knew it, a day had pa.s.sed.
During this time, Lugh had also encountered some source beasts that were very aggressive. However, most of them were low-level source beasts. They were quickly torn into two by Big Mouth.
Fortunately, his journey was safe. He did not encounter any powerful source beasts. This made Lugh greatly relieved.
Moreover, through the battle, he had a better understanding of Big Mouth’s combat strength, the techniques he had mastered, his combat awareness, and the state of his body’s growth, he had a better understanding of them.
Other than some materials and a few source crystals that he had obtained from the ‘blind’ source beasts, Lugh naturally did not forget his purpose. He searched for herbs that could be used everywhere to treat Big Mouth’s injuries.
After finding a place with a relatively wide field of vision that was suitable for the night, Lugh, who was only wearing black underwear, took down the rough package made of clothes on his back. He took out his harvest for the day.
Lugh directly opened the package and placed the herbs, source beast materials, source crystals, and other small items that he had harvested today on the ground.
After that, Lugh started to choose the right herbs based on Big Mouth’s injuries. Soon, he took out two different types of herbs.
These two plants were the most valuable items that Lugh had harvested today. They were both grade-9 herbs.
These herbs could display some good effects on Big Mouth’s injuries.
The dark, weed-like herbs were called recovery herbs. They could allow source beasts to accelerate their body’s self-healing ability for several hours. They could also be used as herbs to quickly recover their source power.
It was often used as the basic ingredient of the recovery pill to quickly recover the source beast’s battle strength.
The other indigo flower was called Indigo Jade.
It was a herb that was specially used to nourish bones and temper the body. Its value was even more precious than the Recovery Gra.s.s from before.
According to the market price, it was about three silver coins. One hundred copper coins was one silver coin. Three silver coins were already very precious.
After choosing these two herbs, Lugh had his own considerations. The Recovery Gra.s.s could speed up the recovery of the Big Mouth’s injuries, especially the newly grown insect armor on its back, filling up the gaps in its defense.
The Indigo Jade, Lugh, planned to grind it into fine powder, and then evenly sprinkle it on the two heavily injured and unconscious toes of Big Mouth.
The Recovery Gra.s.s could fully absorb the essence of the gra.s.s with Big Mouth’s racial talent. All it needed to do was to directly swallow the herbs.
After arranging for Big Mouth to eat the Recovery Gra.s.s, Lugh took out a thick wooden bowl and a thin and long stone plate that he had prepared beforehand. He directly crushed the Indigo Jade into powder.
Under the effect of Lugh, the crushed herbs quickly turned into bright blue jade powder.
“Big Mouth, come closer.” Lugh called out and wiped the sweat on his forehead.
It was obvious that grinding these herbs into fine powder was not an easy task.
After hearing Lugh’s call, Big Mouth, who was on alert, quickly flapped the broken wings on its back and flew to Lugh’s side.
“Don’t move around. It will be wasted if the powder is spilled.” Lugh’s voice made Big Mouth, who wanted to do some intimate actions, immediately quieten down.
Seeing Big Mouth standing still, Lugh closed its eyes and scattered the powder evenly on Big Mouth’s two twisted toes.
The powder on the toes was like tiny blue spots, making Big Mouth’s two toes look like small glowing blue sticks.
Soon, the herbal powder entered Big Mouth’s toes, and the twisted toes began to slowly twist and reset. The three claws on the front of the toes also began to move slowly.
“The medicinal effect is so fast? No, it’s the Big Mouth’s own recovery ability that is amazing. With the help of the medicinal herbs, it has achieved the current results.”
Arne did not have any expression on his face, but his heart was shocked by the recovery ability of this species of the Wyvern.
