Surviving in the Beast World with a System-Chapter 197: Cutting the Rotten Flesh?
"Is it true that corpses will make our people sick?"
A soft, feminine voice suddenly spoke up. Wu Yue looked over and saw it was the female Witch Disciple from the Lion Tribe.
Her eyes were filled with curiosity, as if she were genuinely puzzled by the matter.
Wu Yue chuckled and nodded. "It’s true. It’s not just corpses—even healthy tribesmen will get sick from eating rotten prey. In severe cases, they can even die."
The female disciple nodded, then sat there with a frown, saying no more.
A strange silence descended upon the grass hut. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖
Wu Yue found it strange. ’Weren’t there supposed to be a lot of injured Beastmen?’
’So why are we all just sitting around doing nothing?’
Just as she was wondering, the hut’s curtain was lifted, and several tall, slender Beastmen walked in—they were the Beastman Warriors from the Flying Eagle Tribe.
At that moment, Wu Yue, Yuan Qi, and the others exchanged a look with the Beastman Warriors from the Flying Eagle Tribe... Heh heh!
’What a coincidence! Weren’t these the same Flying Eagle Tribe warriors they had run into in the deep forest, the ones who were nearly killed by the Single-horned Wolves?’
After greeting the Black Wolf Witch and the Clan Leader, they flashed big, toothy grins and sat down beside Wu Yue’s group, immediately striking up a lively conversation.
Seeing the familiar beastly faces, Wu Yue couldn’t help but smile.
"Now that everyone has arrived, I will assign the medical duties for each tribe."
The Clan Leader cleared his throat, and everyone instantly fell silent, turning to look at him.
The Black Wolf Tribe had already separated all the injured Beastmen and Half-beastman Warriors into different grass huts.
The Black Wolf Witch was treating some of the more important Beastman Warriors and Half-beastman Warriors, while Wu Yue’s group was tasked with treating the remaining Beastmen and Half-beastmen.
The Snow Tiger Tribe was assigned a grass hut with over a dozen injured Half-beastman Warriors.
"Oh my god! GAG—"
"This wound is completely rotten! Can he even be saved?"
Wu Yue was also shocked when she saw the Half-beastman Warriors, because all of their wounds showed the exact same symptoms...
’System, their wounds are this bad. Is there really any hope for them?’
All the wounds looked as if they hadn’t been treated at all. They were all red, swollen, and oozing pus. There were even some unidentifiable insects landing on them from time to time.
The sight made Wu Yue’s stomach turn.
The System also sounded a bit exasperated. "Host, please clean this hut first. Those insects crawling on them are basically relatives of the common fly."
Wu Yue turned to the Beastman Warriors behind her. "This hut is too filthy. These flying insects will only make their wounds rot faster. Could you all please clean this place up first? I’m going to check if we have all the necessary herbs for treatment."
The Beastman Warriors nodded. With a flick of their claws, they unearthed a few stone pots, filled them with water, and began to clean the hut.
Meanwhile, Wu Yue’s face had gone deathly pale.
Her voice trembled as she asked her System, ’Do I really have to cut away all that necrotic flesh?’
The System’s still somewhat childish voice replied with a firm, "Yes. The herbs you brought are sufficient, but simply applying them to the wounds as they are now is useless."
"You must first completely debride all the necrotic flesh from the wounds, then apply the medicine. Afterward, you’ll need to brew an herbal decoction for them to drink. That’s the only way they’ll have a chance to recover."
