Chapter 135:

Chapter 135

As if it was a threatening shot, the arrow precisely hit under the group’s feet.

Soon, sand dust rose and a group of mounted soldiers appeared.

It was the Lan people!

“This desert is our territory. Go back, strangers. If you don’t extinguish immediately, the warrior’s spear will penetrate your hearts.”

Raymond and the rest of the group hardened their faces.

It was an unexpectedly hostile response.

‘What? What is it with this lack of neutrality?’

There are many kinds of immigrants in the desert.

“We are here to make a deal with your tribe. I have some pressing and important matters to tell you, so please guide us to the chief.”

“Shut up!” cried the bald man at the front.

“……!”

“Last time they tried to steal the treasure by threading us in that way as well. Thanks to this, the chief’s son is still wandering around, so this time they will not be deceived!”

Raymond realized the situation.

Someone came before them and approached them under the guise of a deal, and attacked them.

‘Oh, my. The timing.’

Then, Elmud stepped forward with a determined face.

“I’ll come forward.”

“Elmud?”

“They are a warrior race. There must be a connection between warriors.”

Elmud took a breath and stepped forward. He then opened his mouth in a distinctively stuffy tone.

“My name is Elmud, the relief engineer of the Penin Treatment Center. The Lord has come for you, so thank you for your grace…….”

“Shut up!”

“It is true, the Lord is here for your sake. So please open your heart and accept his grace…”

The man who took the lead in repeated frustrating sweet potato persuasion attacks became truly angry.

“Oh, shut up!”

Raymond hurriedly pulled Elmud back.

‘Oh, it’s even more counterproductive, you sweet potato bastard!’

Raymond lets out a big sigh.

“What should I do?”

Then, a message came to his mind.

[There’s a quest!]

[Free The Desert Tribe From Suffering!]

(Medical Quest)

Medical grade: Two scalpels

Difficulty: Medium

Quest Description: You have come to solve the disease of the desert tribe. However, you have encountered hostility. It is also the doctor’s duty to resolve the patient’s misundertanding. Resolve their misunderstanding and free the desert tribe from the pain of the disease.

Clear conditions: Treat the disease

Reward: Bonus level up x2, additional 50 skill points

Perks: Absolute goodwill of the desert people, an unexpected great treasure(?)

‘How can I appease the hearts of those who shoot arrows without warning?’

Raymond frowned.

‘Do you think it’s as easy as it sounds?’

Raymond feels it every day, but this system… There were many times when quests were thrown without any solution.

Raymond was feeling lost, but luckily messages came to his mind.

[They are unfairly hindering your efforts to help the patients]

[This is a clear “truth-making”! The opponent’s true tretha is confirmed to be “low”]

[How to deal with the situation will be revealed!]

At the moment, a coping mechanism popped into Raymond’s head.

“It’s not necessary to solve the problem according to the quest.”

Raymond noted the clear conditions.

It is to solve the disease in the tribe.

So as long as the result is good, it is not necessary to ease their minds.

Raymond decided to go the other way.

“Okay. Let’s all just go back.”

“Master?”

“We’re not here to beg. We’re here to help them, but if this is how they will treat us then we should just go back.”

Raymond threw precipitation.

‘I didn’t do anything wrong, but why do I have to be the one to beg them to treat them?’

And he thought about something.

‘And they are a race of warriros who worship the strong. If I try to clumsily relieve myself by bending over, it will only look funny and have no effect. I’d rather go out strong.’

‘We are not the ones who should dbe disappointed!

It’s them who should be!

I had to give this feeling.

Only then will we be able to bring up the proper story.

“.…….”

Expectedly.

The opponent shut his mouth.

Raymond shrugged his shoulders and turned his back.

“There’s nothing we can do. Since they said that they do not need our help, we have no choice but to go to Honjok nearby. If it’s Honjok, they’d be grateful for our help.”

It’s a mixed race.

They were Lan tribe’s long time rival.

Originally, the Lan Tribe was chosen as a negation partner because they’re more modest. But in this case, it was worth considering talking to the Hon tribe instead.

Raymond and his party actually turned their backs and prepared to leave.

In the end, the opponent opened his mouth.

“Wait, stranger! What help are you offering? I’ll listen to what you have to say.”

“We have come to solve the problem of the ‘desert bug’ that has plagued you for hundreds of years.”

“Desert bugs?”

The opponent’s face hardened for a moment.

But that was only for a moment as big loud laughter finally erupted from them.

“What nonsense! Desert bugs have been tormenting the desert people for hundreds… no, maybe thousands of years. And now you’re coming out of nowhere to say that you’re going to solve this?”

The other man frowned.

“As expected, they were crooks.”

An invisible force gushed from the man’s body, concentrating on Raymond.

It was the Lan tribe’s secret technique of concentrating to extract their fighting spirit to subdue their opponents!

The Lan people used this secret weapon to evaluate their opponent’s will.

But Raymond only flinched for a moment, and easily abandoned his anxiety.

[You are feeling undue pressure to do work for your patients!]

[Skill: ‘Heart of Steel’ is being manifested!]

Because he had a heart of steel that reached the C-level!

“Think as you wish.”

Raymond thought it was time to bet.

‘If that doesn’t work, I can go to Honjok and negotiate.’

“We want to solve your pain, but if the people refused, there is nothing we can do.”

It was the moment when Raymond’s eyes exactly met the other man’s.

An additional message came to mind.

[You are fighting for your patients!]

[The skill, ‘Doctor Charisma’ is manifested!]

A trusty dignity flowed from his body.

The heart of still and doctor’s charisma combined to exude powerful faith.

The other man, Muhad, swallowed his saliva.

He sensed that the other person was telling the truth.

Also, there was a basis for him to believe that.

‘He didn’t even waver even after facing my spirit head-on. This person is a warrior with a strong will.’

Muhad is one of the best warriors on the Lan Tribe.

He had just let out a blast of life energy, but his opponent only flinched for a moment and didn’t back down.

Although it was thanks to the Heart of Steel effect, Muhad was convinced that Raymond was a warrior with strong convictions.

A warrior with such convictions would never lie.

“Who are you?”

Raymond thought for a moment and then opened his mouth.

“I am Raymond, the prince of the Houston Kingdom, a member of the Cross League Empire. Please speak louder from now on.”

***

There was a reason why he lied that he was a prince.

This is because when negotiating, you need to be in a higher position to have an equal conversation.

‘For the distant desert immigrants will not know what is going on in the Kingdom of Houston.’

So Raymond faced the chief of the Lan tribe as the prince of the Kingdom of Houston.

The chief of the Lan tribe was an old man of old age.

“Seeing the prince of another country is the Chief of the Lan people, Tang Khan.”

“I am Raymond. I have come to propose a close deal.”

“I’ve heard it already. You’re going to solve the desert bug?”

“That’s right.”

Tang Khan laughed in vain.

“Honestly, if you weren’t a prince of a foreign country, I would have kicked you out right away. What nonsense. Do you know what horrible creatures desert bugs are?”

“Of course I know.”

“But are you saying it can be solved?”

“Yes, it is possible if you use the ancient secret techniques, medicine that I have learned.”

Tang Khan shook his head and shouted outside.

“Hey! Show me the desert bugs!”

Then, the barbarians brought a patient whose legs were covered with cloth on a stretcher.

“Look.”

Swish!

When they pulled the cloth, the terrible sight was revealed.

A hideous bug was crawling out of the skin of the patient’s legs!

This is the desert bug!

Every time the bug wiggled, the patient screamed in pain.

“Kwaaaak. My leg! Ack-!”

The other disciples of the Penin Treatment Center swallowed their groans.

Although they had become accustomed to all the cruel things they saw during the war, the sight of bugs breaking through human skin was an unbearably disgusting aterrible sight.

“There are more than a few people whose legs have been cut off or killed by this cursed bug. But is there a way to solve it?”

“Yes, it is.”

Raymond answered firmly, but Tang Khan, the chief of the Lan tribe, still looked incredulous.

A bug that has been tormenting people for hundreds of years, no, even before the Lan people took root in the desert.

That is why, when he suddenly appeared and said he could solve the problem, there was no way he could believe it.

“Okay, let’s say you have a way to eradicate the desert bugs. Then what do you want in return?”

“Please help me to strike Grand Duke Berard, the evil enemy of Droughton.”

“……!”

Grand Duke Berard.

The moment he heard the story, Tang Khan’s eyes became sharp.

“Not long ago, they targeted our tribe’s treasure and made us shed blood.”

From those words, Raymond was able to guess one thing.

The recent attack on the Lan seemed to have happened because of Grand Duke Berard.

“Okay, if you really teach us how to solve the desert bugs, I will held you drive out Berard. What kind of method should we use?”

And so, Raymond told them how.

“When you drink Oasis water, boil it before drinking it.”

“……What did you say?”

“Also, don’t soak your insect-scarred feet in the oasis. You can fight off desert bugs by keeping these two rule sin practice.”

Tang Khan looked at him blankly.

“…Are you mocking me now? You cn get rid of desert bugs with such a simple method?!”

Tang Khan looked incredulous that he could exterminate the fearsome worms in such an easy way.

Raymond shook his head.

‘It’s true. If you stick to those two principles, you can exterminate the desert bugs. Just like doctors did on modern Earth.’

Desert bug.

It was the same type of ‘guinea worm’ that is prevalent in Africa and the Middle East.

To be precise, it is a parasite that is in the form of an egg in an oasis and then becomes infected when a person drinks the water from it.

After that, it penetrates the stomach wall, grows in a person’s body, and when the time comes, it crawls toward the leg and penetrates the skin of the leg and comes out.

‘Then, the burning pain causes people to dip their feet in the oasis, and tens of thousands of eggs from their wounded legs spread back into the oasis.’

Raymond thought to himself.

In other words, you only have to keep two things.

Boil and disinfect water to kill parasitic eggs, and never to soak the wounded legs in the oasis to prevent new parasites from spreading.

If those principles are followed thoroughly, the desert bugs will be eradicated.

“If you plan on taunting me, get out of here! It would not be foolish to say that we are a desert tribe! How can you exterminate desert bugs just by boiling water?!”

Raymond shook his head in response to Tang Khan’s response.

That’s the reaction he expected.

Of course, he had already thought of a way to persuade him beforehand.
