Aron didn"t hurry to Clay village, measles epidemy won"t happen in near time. He decided to use this time to slowly explore surrounding plains and search for resources. This world had dangerous beasts, still, they were quite rare and mostly residing inside of inner parts of the forests. "I need night creatures to enter my ranch." His plan was to spend the night outside and catch some animals that lived during the night. Infrared vision allowed him to see heat signatures and his high comprehension combined with fast reaction made a night like a day.
[Common Long-eared Bat]
[Traits: Blind, Ultrasonic Hearing, Strong Wings, Claws]
[Skills: Echolocation, Screech, Fast Flying]
"If I add Ultrasonic Hearing into my traits…Will I hear every noise emitted by them?" It wasn"t smart to get such power as turning his quite environment into world of noise would be troublesome.
Traits would be saved into his plunder database, so he could decide later to get this ability. Bats weren"t so common, but he could find many of them over the plains. Those creatures hunted small animals and insects, so plains were good hunting ground.
The next nocturnal creature was red fox, it was female searching for food for its cubs. Aron decided to observe from far and capture entire family into ranch. Some furs of animals such as foxes were popular among the women on Earth. He didn"t care, still getting animals into ranch and improving variety of creatures was important.
Getting some new animals didn"t level up a ranch, so he decided to enter Clay village next morning. The village wasn"t far for someone with speed of a car.
"h.e.l.lo, I am Aron and came from Amber village. I am an apprentice of Carl, the herbalist of my village. „Alex knew that Clay village had many health problems and they won"t refuse his help. It was great opportunity to establish position inside of this village.
"Hi! I am Alex. I am village chief of this village. Since when old man decided to get new apprentice?" Carl and Alex were friends, so it was obvious that he was surprised of Carl sudden change of mind.
"Around month ago. Do you know where I can spend few nights?" The white-haired boys knew that Alex would propose to him a lodging, asking was polite way to confirm this fact.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.
"You can sleep in my house if you don"t have a problem with snoring! HAHA! Herbalists are always welcome in my village!" People with ability to cure diseases were rare and respected. In word where simple flu could claim your life, skilled herbalist was savior and hope bringer.
"Yeah, sure! I would like to visit the marshlands. I heard about some herbs growing there, and I wanted to take some samples. So can you tell them, to come tomorrow?" Some parts of marchlands weren"t explored by Aron in previous life.
"No problem! Come with me, I will show you your room!" Alex lead him to small room that was treated by him as guest"s room.
Aron left with some bags to create image of herb gathering trip. Having villagers doubt his intentions wasn"t good beginning, so he needed to fake many things.
"Ok, let"s catch some of these snakes and toads." His talent in creating poisons wasn"t in any use, getting source of venoms and poisons will change this fact.
This time, his target wasn"t only snakes. He could rear insects too, so why not? You could actually feed the other animals with insects and some of them had special substances in their bodies. It was useful for medicine and many other things.
"Freaking bloodsuckers." Rearing mosquitos was pretty stupid, however they could be used as food for chickens or toads. They might be annoying for him, but it"s precious meal for some animals.
[Yellow Reed.]
"I found reed. It"s material for primitive roofs. People here don"t use it."
A few hours, and he got all the interesting things from the surroundings. There were actually deeper sections of march. Advancing further required some preparations, getting stuck inside of mud wasn"t good idea even with immunity to most venoms and poisons.
It was evening, so he decided to practice his archery and footwork. Footwork was pretty useful technique as it allowed him to move from place to place in more efficient way.
The next morning big crowd gathered before Alex"s house, all of them came for consultations.
"I am f.u.c.ked. It"s part of the plan…I understand why Carl didn"t have much time." Villagers didn"t came only with their own health problems, and they sometimes brought animals or plants.
"Ok, line up! I check all of you! Alex, bring some order here." Aron shouted and Alex put them into line.
The first one was an old man with a swollen cheek. The problem was actually a tooth, the boy said.
"One of your teeth is rotten and it must be removed. If I don"t do it, the rest of your teeth will root..." Tooth decay was common problem of this era, so the most efficient way was removing a rotten tooth and try force patient to at least flush his mouth from time to time.
"Do what you need! I don"t care!" Man wasn"t concerned about losing teeth, and his only worry was to pain. It was unbearable and it was obstructing him from comfortable working.
The foul smell coming from man"s mouth was hard to bear, Aron decided to hurry and used string. It was simple method to remove tooth with rapid move.
The person started to bleed from the mouth, panic appeared on his face and he was about start screaming when Aron said.
"Bleeding will stop in few seconds. The most important part that pain should stop in a moment." His charismatic voice stopped man from further panic and allowed him to calm down. The pain stopped and man was extremely happy.
"Flush your mouth with warm water for two weeks every day! If you don"t follow my instructions…Pain will come back in other tooth…" Aron didn"t even try to explain concept of bacteria to simple man, people will believe in G.o.ds, spirits and monster rather than viruses and bacteria.
The patient after patient, he gave them some prescriptions and helped to heal their conditions. Some of them brought their cows and other cattle to him.
Appraisal always showed him, the correct treatment method and if there was no way. It displayed possible strengthening mixes to help the patient"s immunity system fight the disease by itself.
"Can I trouble with the little request of mine?" Aron wanted the new plants and searching all of by himself was not efficient at all.
"Yeah. What is it?" Alex was intrigued by question of white-haired boy.
"Carl is growing many different kinds of herbs in his courtyard. I decided to bring him some new and rare plants to expand his collection. Can you ask people to bring me if they find something weird or at least guide me to a place where it is growing?" Simple excuse of collecting plants to database to accelerate the process of upgrading the s.p.a.ce.
"I am sure. My village will be more than willing to help you. Thanks to your a.s.sistance, many people don"t need to worry about their lives anymore..." Alex was sincere with his statement. You could die of the simple flu, in this world and herbalist were respected and treated well in every village.
Few hours later, people started bringing plants in big amounts. Most of those were already part of his database, still he got few new ones.
"If they could collect rare animals too…It would save me so much time." They weren"t best people for this job, most of villagers were afraid of snakes and toads. The venom or toxin could send them to h.e.l.l, so risking wasn"t option for them.
