My Farm System: Reaching The Top In The Parallel Earth!-Chapter 215 215
"Is this an Ogrehorn Nut?" Rezen muttered while looking up. His eyes stared at a certain group of nuts on a tree
These nuts look like acorns except for the fact that they have two horn-like protrusions on their side
"If I remember correctly, the Ogrehorn Nut when consumed could temporarily provide the user with physical stats more than enough to defeat twenty adult men"
Since Rezen cannot use his magic yet, this Spirit Plant is particularly helpful to him as it could help with his lacking mobility
While Rezen could minimize his presence with Juta Powder, that was not enough. Just look at what happened when he encountered a Burrowing Rocktoise with Terropla Moss on it
If Rezen were to encounter a magic beast with particularly strong senses or a magic beast accidentally stared straight in his direction, he would still be discovered
If Rezen were to be discovered by magic beasts since his offensive items are limited, if possible, he would have to run away
The Ogrehorn Nut is a particularly useful Spirit Plant as with its help, running away would be easier for Rezen
"I'm lucky, even if the forest contains a large number of Spirit Plants, due to the lack of knowledge, the ignorant tribesmen would not consume any unknown plants in fear that they are poisonous" Rezen said with a smile
As long as a person walked around the forest, they would definitely encounter Spirit Plants, that is not an exaggeration
Rezen doesn't know if this forest is really just a good place for Spirit Plants to grow or if it's just that no one was there to harvest them but it doesn't matter, he would take the useful ones to himself!
Even if some of the tribesmen knew the uses of some Spirit Plants, because of the life they had lived, knowledge is not easy to pass. Those that have knowledge might have died before they could pass down what they know
The tribe also often changed their homes which also means a change in flora and fauna, leading to encountering Spirit Plants that the tribesmen are completely clueless about
Rezen climbed the tree and he picked some of the acorns and stored them inside an empty pouch on his waist
He took many pouches with him as he planned on taking the particularly useful Spirit Plants with him
He doesn't have void storage anymore as it was destroyed in the planar travel and he also doubts that it would be usable in a completely new realm considering the situation back at the earth realm
"This should do since Ogrehorn Nuts also has some serious side effects. If I consume too much of them at once or a long time without detoxifying my body, I'll grow horns on my forehead that would start to kill me from within"
Spirit Plants are not the same. Some have useful effects and some don't, some have serious side effects while others don't no matter how overpowered they are
After Rezen harvested enough number of the Ogrehorn Nuts, he moved on. The nuts were merely some small gains, there is still a larger stake at hand
——
Waterside Tribe
The next morning
"Yawn..."
Inside Rezen's hut, he could be heard and seen yawning as he grind a green paste in a bowl using a smooth stone
He walked in the forest for the whole night but mana stone mines are not that easy to find. These strategic resources are not your common potatoes and Rezen already expected that it would take more than one night before he could find even just a small deposit of mana stones
However, although that was the case, Rezen still cannot help but be a bit disappointed. What he badly needed is hard to find!
"I'm sorry, Rezen, you have to treat me this early. I just didn't expect that we would encounter a Twin-horned Boar the moment we started to hunt" Treen apologizes while feeling really embarrassed
Currently, Treen is waiting to be treated by the tribe's healer. Although there is the potato farm but since it still wasn't 100% proven that it would work and the potatoes also needed time to grow, the tribesmen still continued their day-to-day life, including hunting
The only difference is that they could now afford to lessen the times that they hunt magic beasts since they could just dig some potatoes in the ground if they don't have meat to eat
However, many tribesmen still preferred to eat meat. While the potatoes are not bad, because of the lack of seasoning, they don't taste heavenly to the point that the tribe would choose them all the time
There is still the need to hunt and just like usual, some tribesmen are unlucky on their hunt
Treen and his team encountered the same magic beast that Jenna's team hunted before but the difference was that Treen's team encountered a healthy magic beast while Jenna's team encountered a pregnant one
The pregnant magic beast was held back by the baby on its stomach, giving Jenna and the others the ability to hunt and kill it
As for Treen, the magic beast they encountered was a perfectly healthy one and such a specie of magic beast was on the stronger side, resulting in this scenario
Not only were they forced to stop the hunt and flee from it, Treen was even injured on his shoulder to the point that his bones were almost exposed
With the level of injury that Treen received, be badly needed medical treatment as soon as possible
He was lucky that the tribe now has a healer. If not, it was possible that his right arm would become disabled because of the injury on his shoulder
"N-no, it's alright, this is my duty. I just didn't have enough sleep last night" Rezen replied while portraying a professional smile
After making the medicine, Rezen grabbed a slender wooden cup filled with white liquid that has a sour scent
This liquid is something that Rezen could substitute with alcohol to roughly clean wounds before putting on the medication
It's just that the ingredients were rare in this area of the forest and he doesn't have a lot of it
Only when someone has an injury as severe as the one that Treen has would Rezen use it
Rezen first washed his hand with a bit of the imitation alcohol before slowly pouring some on Treen's wound
It was not wise to use alcohol to clean an open wound as it would kill both the germs and healthy essential cells but it was better than nothing. This world after all lacks the same technological advancement as on earth
"Hiss!! That hurts!" Treen couldn't help but hiss from the pain while inhaling a sharp breath 𝗳𝒓𝙚e𝓌e𝚋𝙣𝚘𝐯𝙚𝙡.𝑐૦m
Just like earth's alcohol, Rezen's alcohol also stings a lot. It was as painful and fortunately, the tribesmen's pain tolerance was higher compared to an earthling
With how much injuries are common, they naturally grew up with high pain tolerance
If Treen was a normal earthling, he might have wailed and wiggled out from the pain already. But even then, Treen still couldn't stop trembling as the alcohol hurts like shit
"Damn... damn it. Rezen, don't you have some of those painkillera of yours?" Treen couldn't help but ask since the pain was really painful
In reply, Rezen shook his head with an embarassed look on his face
"I-I'm sorry, I prioritized remaking healing medicines instead of painkillers"
With that, Treen was reminded of many things. First of all, Yvter wasted the precious medicines of the tribe and even injured the only person that coule create them
Rezen was injured because of Treen and he also passed out on the potato farm. It would be a miracle if he was able to remake all the medicines that Yvter wasted in such a short period of time
"Ah, no, no, there's no need to apologize. This is not your fault, this is all Yvter's fault! That damn bastard, every time I see his nasty face, I always have the urge to punch him!" Treen said while gritting his teeth
If not for that nasty bastard, he wouldn't have to suffer like this!
Rezen continued with the treatment and after applying the medicine, he bandaged Treen's arm using a beast skin and advised him of what he can and can't do in the meantime
It would take quite a long time before Treen could recover and Rezen asked him to just search for potatoes to eat in the meantime as fighting magic beasts would just make the wounds worst
"Thank you, Rezen. I really don't know what to do if you are not here! Do you have plants that you need these days? I'll try to find them whenever I search for potatoes!" Treen said
Since Rezen indeed needed a large variety and number of Spirit Plants, he didn't stand on ceremony and fed Treen the knowledge of the Spirit Plants that he currently needed
