Chapter 424: Peace on the Surface, Turmoil Beneath

At the critical moment when a fight was about to break out, that NPC furnace, which had always seemed like mere decoration, finally exerted its power!

Its flames instantly swelled dramatically, transforming from its original appearance into a nearly massive flame giant.

Then, this blazing giant composed of furnace fire emitted a majestic, resonant sound like a morning bell.

"I said, enough!"

"Do not fight in the Healing Station! If you want to settle life and death, you can go outside!"

Such scorching and enormous flames, just by burning, instantly raised the temperature inside the entire tent by several degrees!

The tent now felt like the inside of an oven.

The Barbarian who had lost his head cooled down considerably.

Lin Yu, who had been planning how to kill this Monster, also felt slightly shocked.

"Is this guy really that powerful?"

"Was stopping fights here always achieved by it?"

With such doubts, Lin Yu subconsciously activated the [Mind-Peeping Eyepiece].

Then he saw an emotional analysis panel showing "45% worry, 25% guilt"...

"It's all just a bluff."

Lin Yu silently facepalmed.

But fortunately, that Barbarian didn't know this.

The searing temperature at this moment, combined with the fact that the other party was, after all, the entity managing the Healing Station, made the Barbarian suppress his anger and sheathe the weapon in his hand.

He glared viciously at Stiller.

"Human, we'll remember this debt... For now, saving my elder brother is indeed more urgent."

As he said this, the Barbarian looked at the furnace and spoke loudly.

"Then can my elder brother be cured or not?!"

Seeing he was no longer entangled with Stiller, the Furnace Fire also shrank back to its normal size, then spoke calmly.

"It can be cured. I told you, it's just minor snake venom."

Then, the Furnace Fire extended two large flame hands. The left hand grabbed the Barbarian on the ground who was already breathing weakly and deeply poisoned.

Meanwhile, the fingers of the right hand transformed into dozens of fiery tongues, snatching several medicine bottles and jars, directly crushing them.

"Refine!"

The Furnace Fire shouted. The medicinal liquids, wrapped and spun by flames in the air, merged together and were heated.

This hand alchemy technique dazzled everyone watching.

Only Lin Yu saw through the trick again via the [Mind-Peeping Eyepiece].

"35% pride plus 25% smugness... It seems this flashy display has more show-off elements."

Lin Yu sighed with emotion, while Hannah spoke somewhat enviously.

"Gua, that's amazing. I wish I had skills like that. Controlling the heat for roasting or cooking would definitely be much better."

"You'll be a great Chef in the future. You won't need such external conditions to control the heat well."

As Lin Yu spoke, Hannah was surprised again.

"Gua ah, Director, you said something similar to Uncle Ka!"

During their conversation, the Furnace Fire had finished refining the medicinal liquid and poured it into the mouth of the Barbarian on the ground.

"Gulu gulu..."

The Barbarian's whole body trembled violently, then black blood gushed from his mouth and nose.

"Elder brother!"

The more impulsive Barbarian shouted excitedly and rushed over.

The other Barbarian looked at the Furnace Fire with hatred. "What did you do?!"

The Flame Monster spoke calmly, "Two idiots. Did your tribe not send a single person who understands Witch Doctors this time? This is expelling the poisoned blood!"

"Carry him to the side. Let him rest quietly for a while, and he'll be fine."

After saying this, the Flame Monster turned to Stiller's group.

"Bring over the one from your side who was bitten!"

Stiller immediately waved his hand. Two male Players then carried over a woman whose abdomen was covered in bloodstains.

Although bandaged, judging from the fact that half her clothes were soaked through with blood, the bleeding probably hadn't stopped yet.

Simultaneously, that woman had also lost consciousness.

The Furnace Fire looked for a moment and reached a conclusion.

"This isn't too serious either. Bitten by a Cracktooth Beast, causing the wound not to heal, right? Was the thing that bit her black or white?"

As the Furnace Fire asked, one of the Players anxiously blurted out, "Couldn't see clearly... seemed gray."

But Stiller calmly spoke up, "Black and white stripes. It ran too fast, so it looked like a gray shadow."

The Furnace Fire understood, "I see. Striped Cracktooth Raccoon. Not a big problem... You humans also came with a group that doesn't understand Witch Doctors. Just sprinkle some special medicinal powder on this thing."

Saying this, the Furnace Fire used its large flame hand to take out a medicine bottle. This time, there was no refining process. It simply opened the bottle and poured the powder down.

"Might hurt a bit. Bear with it."

As the powder was sprinkled down, the Furnace Fire spoke simultaneously.

And the moment its words fell.

"Ah—!!!"

A scream erupted.

The previously unconscious woman woke up, letting out a shrill, miserable scream.

The sound was like that of a hellish demon enduring endless torture.

Simultaneously, her entire body twisted, limbs convulsing and spasming, sweat pouring out like a waterfall.

Lin Yu's eyes lit up.

What a good item.

Whether it stops bleeding or not is one thing. Having such a refreshing, mind-clearing effect when sprinkled on a wound... wouldn't it be perfect for interrogation, torture, and threats?

The screaming lasted about half a minute before gradually subsiding—not because the pain stopped, but because she ran out of breath.

Her whole body was still twitching from the intense pain.

But fortunately, the bleeding had truly stopped.

"Take her away, take her away! Once she stops twitching, she can be discharged!"

The Furnace Fire waved its large hand.

Seeing the tension dissipate with the Furnace Fire's miraculous healing, Fern lay back down.

"They didn't fight. What a pity."

But Lin Yu, looking at the two new groups not far from him, silently refuted Fern's statement in his heart.

"It's not certain they won't fight yet..."

This is just temporary peace.

Judging from the current situation, it probably won't be long before something happens here.

Because it's simple...

From the nearly cheat-like perspective of the [Mind-Peeping Eyepiece], Lin Yu could see the turbulent undercurrents hidden beneath the surface.

Between those two Barbarians, the one more distant from the injured Barbarian looked at the "elder brother" whose breathing had stabilized, yet the emotions in his heart held no "joy." Instead, they were "doubt," "unease," and "worry."

And if it were only this... Lin Yu would merely know there was a landmine among these Barbarians, unable to determine when it would explode, or even if it would definitely explode.

However, within Stiller's group of Players, apart from Stiller himself, the emotions of several other Players weren't very positive either.

"Hatred," "envy," and "anger" were everywhere. In a corner, there was also an ultimate weirdo inexplicably emitting "joy" and "anticipation"—two emotions that only flashed for an instant before disappearing.

Lin Yu watched them like this until he felt his mental energy was overconsumed, then silently deactivated the [Mind-Peeping Eyepiece].

"This tiny little Healing Station truly has hidden dragons and crouching tigers."

"But precisely because of that... Stiller needs to hurry up."

If things really blow up later, all of Stiller's painstaking efforts might go to waste—after all, he hasn't spread the news about the "Rakshasa" here yet.

So...

"Hannah, go to Stiller's side. I have something to discuss with him."
