28 Use of the Blood Eye! Establishment Of The Medical Hall!
After Zhou Zhou received the news, he immediately walked out of the room and found Bai Yi.
The situation on her side was not so good.
A black-and-purple-faced Black Iron-Tier Intermediate Grade soldier was lying unconscious on a simple wooden cart.
Bai Yi and the others were anxious, but they could not do anything about this situation.
"His Lordship is here!"
"Make way for the Lord!"
"My Lord must have a way to save Brother Zhang!"
…
When the soldier saw Zhou Zhou arrive, they were immediately excited. Then, they quickly made way for Zhou Zhou.
Zhou Zhou quickly arrived in front of the poisoned person.
"My Lord, I was careless!"
"We were accidentally ambushed by the Black-Tailed Fog Scorpion hidden under the sand in the process of capturing them. We killed all the Black-Tailed Fog Scorpions in the end but this comrade was still accidentally poisoned by a low-level Black-Tailed Fog Scorpion during the battle."
"I did some emergency treatment to suppress the spread of the poison in his body but there was still no way to neutralize the poison. He passed out on the way back."
"My Lord, please punish me!" Bai Yi looked ashamed.
Poisoned? Zhou Zhou did not waste his breath.
He took out the Black Iron-Tier Elementary Grade antidote he had obtained earlier, opened the cork, and poured the entire bottle into the poisoned soldier's mouth.
The next second, his tense expression relaxed at a speed visible to the naked eye. At the same time, his dark purple face gradually returned to its normal color.
His face returned to normal and he opened his eyes in confusion in no time.
Zhou Zhou opened the soldier's personal information and realized that his condition had returned to normal.
"All right! All right! He's awake!"
"As expected of the Lord!"
"I knew His Lordship would have a way!"
…
The soldiers were pleasantly surprised.
Bai Yi also heaved a sigh of relief. However, she did not dare to look into Zhou Zhou's eyes.
"There is no need to blame yourself for that. It's clearly because of the Black-Tailed Fog Scorpion's attack methods that are impossible to guard against. It's normal for you to get hit by accident. Just be careful next time."
Zhou Zhou looked at Bai Yi and shook his head.
"The Black-tailed Fog Scorpion is proficient in sneak attacks underground. It's very difficult for us to discover it in advance…" Bai Yi said helplessly.
Zhou Zhou also frowned slightly.
Bai Yi was right.
However, how could he be willing to avoid the area where the Black-Tailed Fog Scorpions were just because of that?
It would be impossible for him to avoid the Black-Tailed Fog Scorpion's living area when his territory expands in the future.
Moreover, the poison of this Black-Tailed Fog Scorpion was a little stronger than he had expected.
A Black Iron-Tier Elementary Grade Black-Tailed Fog Scorpion almost poisoned a Black Iron-Tier Intermediate Graden Sword Shield Soldier to death.
At this moment, Zhou Zhou suddenly thought of an item.
"Come with me." He said.
The two arrived at the Gnome Alchemy Workshop and found Ashburn.
"Ashburn, can the Blood Eye enable us to see the fog monsters hidden underground?" Zhou Zhou asked directly.
Bai Yi was stunned for a moment before her eyes lit up.
"The Blood Eye can detect them as long as they aren't hiding more than 10 meters underground." Ashburn laughed.
"No problem! The Black-Tailed Fog Scorpion wouldn't hide so deep beneath the ground!"
"Erupting out from the ground would take too long otherwise and the commotion would be too big! I estimate that they are generally about three to five meters beneath the surface." Bai Yi said excitedly.
"No problem at all." Ashburn smiled and nodded. With that, he turned around and walked to the workbench. He took three blood-red potion bottles and returned to Zhou Zhou.
"I have just grasped the refinement method of this Blood Eye so I couldn't help but make three bottles. This potion is very simple to refine. I can refine about 10 bottles in an hour."
"You can use it now if you need it. If it's not enough, I'll refine it again." Ashburn laughed.
"Thank you." Bai Yi thanked him.
"You're too kind, Madam Bai. We're all working for the Lord." Ashburn laughed.
Bai Yi looked at Zhou Zhou with burning eyes.
Zhou Zhou touched his nose and did not say anything. After taking the Blood Eye Potion, he led her out of the gnome alchemy workshop.
"You want revenge for your poisoned brother?" Zhou Zhou asked directly after coming out.
"I'll go wherever my Lord tells me to go." Bai Yi said respectfully.
"It's okay. I want to attack the territory of the Black-Tailed Fog Scorpion too. But before that, we need to understand the range of Black-Tailed Fog Scorpion's survival methods and their exact numbers. There's a saying in my hometown, only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you win a hundred battles." Zhou Zhou said.
"I understand." Bai Yi also calmed down.
Zhou Zhou nodded and he told her about the scout team.
"There are now nine mechanostriders unused in the territory. Pick out nine smart soldiers and get them to master the piloting of the mechanostriders. Then, you can bring them to explore the Black-Tailed Fog Scorpion's territory first. Obtain intel on the enemy so that we can beat them. I will lead you to destroy this group of Black-Tailed Fog Scorpions then !" Zhou Zhou said seriously.
"Yes, My Lord! I'll carry it out now!" Bai Yi said excitedly. Then, she left with the three bottles of Blood Eye Potion that Zhou Zhou had given her.
Zhou Zhou watched her leave. There was nothing to worry about.
With the Blood Eye, even the monsters hidden underground could not escape their observation.
It would be difficult for them to encounter danger as long as Bai Yi and the others did not deliberately bump into the monster's face when they were on these fast mechanostriders.
"I wonder if there's a Scarlet Lord behind the Black-Tailed Fog Scorpion…" Zhou Zhou pondered.
"My Lord. I have something to report." Zhao Changshou walked over.
"Elder Zhao, just tell me." Zhou Zhou said politely.
He was very respectful to old people, especially talented old people.
Courtesy must not be abandoned.
Zhao Changshou seemed to take note of this and said, "My Lord, the clinic has been completed. I'm also supervising the construction of the warehouse. It should be ready by tonight."
"As for the residences, I handed them over to Qian Du. He completely grasped the blueprint of the residences that His Lordship gave to him. He has already established two residences. There shouldn't be any problems with the remaining construction."
Zhou Zhou's eyes lit up.
The clinic was completed?! A medical center was too important to stabilize the loyalty of the subjects!
Moreover, it was even more important to the injured soldiers. It could greatly reduce their casualties!
The two of them arrived at the newly built medical hall.
It was not big, just a two-story-tall white ordinary building with the word 'Medical Hall' on it.
Zhou Zhou looked at it.
A text notification appeared.
[Building Name: Medical Hall]
[Territory Level: Black Iron-Tier Elementary Grade]
[Building Effect: Basic building of the territory. After a doctor moves in, he can research, sell medicine, and treat patients. It can also slightly increase the loyalty of his subjects].
[Note 1: This building can be upgraded by higher quality blueprints, but the corresponding materials need to be replenished.]
[Note 2: The level of researching medicine and treating patients, the economic benefits of selling medicine, and the extent of increasing the loyalty of the people depends on the level of the clinic and the life profession level of the doctor.]
[Building Description: I'd rather the medicine hall be covered in thick dust than have a patient in the world.]
" I established this Black Iron-Tier Intermediate Grade Medical Hall because the best doctor in our territory, Zhang Qianjing, is at this level."
"I will upgrade this building when Physician Zhang's profession level increases in the future or there are higher-level doctors in the territory."
"My Lord, you don't have to worry about higher-level blueprints."
"There's no need for blueprints at all as long as we don't build anything above the White Platinum-Tier Intermediate Grade."
"I can build them directly with enough resources and manpower." Zhao Changshou smiled.
Zhou Zhou, very satisfied.
Having a high-level architect by his side would save money and trouble!
After that, Zhou Zhou went to see the two residences that Qian Du had built.
It had to be said that even though Qian Du was an unorthodox architect, with the help of the blueprint and Zhao Changshou's guidance, the houses built were still quite standard.
A residence that could accommodate up to four people could be built with fewer resources even though it could not be upgraded.
As long as Zhou Zhou's territory was large enough, it was not a problem for everyone to have a residence of their own.
…
On the other side, Bai Yi quickly found nine suitable candidates and began to teach them how to pilot the mechanostriders.
It was not difficult to learn how to pilot the mechanostriders. Given their intelligence, they mastered the method in less than an hour.
She brought them away from the territory in a mechanostrider after cautioning them on the things to take note of.
Time passed, night gradually fell.
Bai Yi and the others finally returned safely before the scarlet fog appeared with the results of their investigation.
