Chapter 478: Chapter 357: Mission Accomplished

They were indeed overwhelmed by joy earlier, only thinking that the jar of ’Holy Water’ would save them, but forgot it was just a medicinal lead, only effective when paired with the prescription to save more clan members.

Otherwise, just this little jar of water, how many beastmen could it save?

Ronan saw that they hadn’t tried to snatch anymore, and exhaled a sigh of relief, holding the clay jar tightly, “Where’s your Clan Leader? The witch doctor? Someone go call them.”

“Over by the stone house, I’ll go call them now.”

An alert beastman shouted loudly and then turned to fetch them.

Before long.

A burly middle-aged beastman hurried over, none other than the Clan Leader of The Bear Tribe.

Surrounding beastmen saw the Clan Leader approaching, and automatically gave way.

Following behind was the hunchbacked Old Beastman, acting as The Bear Tribe’s witch doctor, hurriedly coming despite his age, his breath somewhat ragged.

“Brother from The Wolf Tribe, is that truly the life-saving Holy Water? How should we use it?”

The Bear Tribe approached excitedly, staring at the clay jar in Ronan’s hand, as if seeing a lifeline.

He had already heard on the way here, that this Wolf Tribe beastman before him had given a little to a dying cub, instantly saving his life, simply unbelievable.

Ronan handed the Beast Skin Scroll to The Bear Tribe Clan Leader, “This is the prescription, needs to be brewed together with the Holy Water. Everyone should drink a bowl, and they’ll be fine after a few days.”

The Bear Tribe Clan Leader excitedly took the Beast Skin Scroll, unfolded it and took a look, instantly stunned, “This… brother from The Wolf Tribe, are some of the ingredients in here mistaken?”

He instantly spotted the Ghost Fire Flower inside, which is highly toxic, how could it appear in a life-saving prescription?

But didn’t feel The Wolf Tribe would deliberately harm them, given the epidemic spreading in The Beast World Continent Lower Domain, there’s no need for such actions, only thinking they might have made a mistake.

The Bear Tribe’s Old Shaman leaned over to examine, seeing several clearly poisonous herbs inside, his face changed too, “This…”

Ronan saw their hesitation, impatiently waved his hand, “Believe it or not, our Wolf Tribe cured hundreds of patients this way, but they were brewed with Holy Water, the brewing method is recorded above, if you don’t believe it, then return it to me.”

He said, acting as if to snatch the prescription back, frightening The Bear Tribe Clan Leader to instantly stash the prescription into his chest.

Immediately, not forgetting to take the clay jar from Ronan’s hand, he grinned apologetically, “Don’t be angry, don’t be angry, it’s not that I don’t believe, just seeing such a prescription for the first time, it’s normal not to understand.”

Joking aside, this is a life-saving item, no way it can be returned.

The Wolf Tribe had already controlled the epidemic, otherwise they wouldn’t dare send these things over.

The Bear Tribe witch doctor, though somewhat baffled by the prescription, didn’t say more.

In such situations, they could only try every possible method.

The Bear Tribe Clan Leader didn’t delay, immediately instructing tribesmen to collect the herbs listed in the prescription.

Ronan didn’t hurry to leave either, ensuring The Bear Tribe strictly followed the prescription.

Since it contains toxic plants, any mistake or omitted ingredient could result in fatalities.

“Remember, the Holy Water must be added last, it’s what neutralizes the toxicity.”

Ronan raised his voice to remind from beside.

…

Meanwhile, The Raging Lion Tribe.

Roric just crossed the tribe’s boundary stone, immediately stopped by two wabbling Lion clan beastmen.

They appeared pale, covered in red rashes, weak as if a gust of wind could knock them down.

“Stop…”

One barely spoke before bending over to retch on the ground.

Roric agilely jumped aside, swiftly retreating in horror, deeply afraid of contracting this dreadful epidemic.

Fortunately, he was fully armed when coming, with his mouth and nose covered and wearing gloves.

He raised the clay jar high from his embrace, “The Wolf Tribe developed a prescription to cure the epidemic, call your Clan Leader… Damn it!”

Before finishing his words, both Lion tribe beastmen suddenly fell flat, convulsed twice, then went still.

From afar, cubs quickly ran over, their heart-rending cries echoing: “Father, father wake up…”

……

The Ox Tribe.

Nino stared at the empty tribe, his scalp tingling.

In front of the cave, sick beastmen lay strewn everywhere, even the warriors responsible for patrolling lay unconscious.

“Anyone here?”

He shouted at the top of his lungs.

An old female beastman with a face full of rashes crawled out of a cave, her breath weakly flowing: “Don’t…don’t come over…it’s contagious…”

Nino quickly looked over, sprinting a few steps to open the clay jar: “Open your mouth, grandmother, this is a life-saving medicine!”

As the Holy Water poured into her throat, the elder’s dim eyes regained a hint of sparkle.

She shakily pointed inside the cave, “First save the chil… children, they’re all there…”

Nino became instantly perplexed, “Grandma, this is the medicinal lead, needs the prescription to save more people, where’s your Clan Leader?”

The old female coughed twice, “I see… it’s the old woman’s mistake, don’t blame… the Clan Leader is there, the biggest one is.”

Nino expressed gratitude, quickly heading to The Ox Tribe Clan Leader’s residence.

…..

Various large and small tribes in The Beast World Continent Lower Domain received the prescription and Holy Water sent by The Wolf Tribe in succession.

The entire Beast World Continent Lower Domain became instantly busy, all rushing to gather herbs, brew medicine, then distribute it to the patients.

Beast King City.

Kian Sterling stood on the high platform in Beast King City’s square, overlooking the busy beastmen below.

Once herbs were fully gathered, he swiftly instructed beastman guards to brew, strictly following the steps on the prescription without any mistake.

With methods to treat the epidemic, the entire Beast King City seemed injected with new vitality.

Beastman guards raised large pots, brewing the dark medicinal soup, the entire square filled with thick medicinal aroma.

Yet no one complained; rather, they all hoped eagerly.

This smell signified everyone could survive.

“Beast King, the first batch of medicine is ready!”

A beastman guard hurriedly ran to Kian Sterling, respectfully reporting.

Kian Sterling nodded slightly, his ten white fox tails swaying back and forth behind him, “Send it to the critical condition area first.”

“Yes, Beast King.”

The beastman guard accepted the order and left.

Soon, the first batch of medicine was delivered to the critical isolation zone.

It was first distributed to those beastman, females, the elderly, and younglings who were on the brink of death.

For those who were unconscious, their families took responsibility to feed them.

Not long after, they were astonished to find changes in their bodies.

“Huh? Not vomiting anymore?”

“It doesn’t seem to hurt as much…”

“By The Beast God, this medicine really works!”

Cheering erupted, and the isolation zone, which had been filled with despair, instantly became lively.

Kian Sterling heard the beastman guard’s report, his lips curled slightly, and a great weight in his heart was finally lifted.

Yet his expression was extremely complicated.

Because this medicine was developed by The Golden Silkworm King, and everyone was still drinking the other’s saliva.

If The Golden Silkworm King didn’t have the intention of becoming Luna’s eighth beast husband,

and hadn’t purposely hidden his inability to transform, leading Luna to keep him as a pet in her space, he would surely have been grateful to him.

But now…

“Ha, the eighth beast husband?”

Kian Sterling squinted, a trace of danger and calculation flickering in his eyes, “Looks like I should head back sooner.”

…

Three days later, the isolation zone of The Wolf Tribe was already half empty.

The beastmen who were previously sickly had mostly recovered and regained their spirits.

Some even began helping with brewing medicine and taking care of other patients.

These were the beastmen who got infected later, mainly because there was still some virus lingering in the air.

Corbin Crowley had already led the beastmen to clean up the sources, not only in Sky-mist Canyon but also the decaying corpses across The Beast World Continent were gradually being cleared away.

For those too far away, other tribes were notified to clean up.

Of course, there would inevitably be some omissions, but that’s something that couldn’t be helped, and thankfully, there was already a method to deal with the plague.

Luna Sutton cleaned the green brick-and-tile house inside and out, the front yard, the back yard, the main hall, the kitchen, and every room and corner, using wormwood to disinfect, and ended up sweating all over.

Just as she finished cleaning, a cheerful system voice rang in her ears.

“Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the [Plague Star] task. Number of people treated: 5980, overachieved. Rewards issued: [Basic Medical Codex] skill is now unlocked, Faith Value +1000, three random rare medicinal seeds have been issued to the system backpack, please check and receive them.”

Luna Sutton’s eyes instantly lit up, realizing she hadn’t checked her personal data for a long time, mainly wanting to see her Faith Value.

With that thought, she opened the system interface.

Host: Luna Sutton

Age: 18

Charm Value: 95

Appearance Value: 90 (Nation-toppling Beauty, Absolutely Stunning)

Health Value: 88

Weight: 110 pounds (Standard)

Malachi Arcanus: 100 (Unfaltering Fidelity, Successfully Conquered.)

Soren Phoenix: 100 (Unfaltering Fidelity, Successfully Conquered.)

Mael Valerius: Unbound, Can Be Rebound.

After a quick glance at each data, she quickly noticed an additional column for Faith Value and Luck.

There was no Luck Value column before, but now it appeared.

She remembered the system initially said her Luck was at 60, yet now it had skyrocketed to 95.

At the end, there was even a label, Plane Female Lead.

Luna Sutton was instantly shocked, she hadn’t forgotten that she was destined to be a wicked supporting character.

Even though Chloe Callahan was dead, she never expected the Heavenly Dao would allow her to become the Plane Female Lead.

Although surprised, she was undoubtedly happy because getting to be the Female Lead, who would want to be the wicked supporting character?

Turning this over in her mind, she quickly understood the reason.

It was likely related to the plague.

Though it was mainly The Golden Silkworm King’s effort, she also played a part.

Moreover, she was the one coordinating the whole process.

Her lips curled slightly; her mood was visibly good.

She suddenly didn’t find Old Man Providence as annoying anymore.

Her gaze then fell on the Faith Value column.

To be honest, she wasn’t really sure how to use this Faith Value.

“Hey System, didn’t you say this Faith Value could enhance cultivation? So how should I use it?”

Luna Sutton couldn’t help but ask the system internally.
