Lord of the Oasis

Chapter 249: Ranger’s First Aid Methods

The dark red devil’s blood seemed to be corrosive. Scorching white smoke instantly appeared on Bunduk’s body. Even if he wore chain armor, it was useless. It corroded the linen robe on the outside and followed the gaps of the chain armor, it also corroded the linen underwear on the inside. When it came into contact with his flesh, it sizzled like roasted meat.

“Ahhhh –”

Bunduk instantly let out a muffled groan. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead and cheeks.

The veins on his entire face popped up, and his face began to turn abnormally red. More than half of his body was splattered with demon blood. White smoke sizzled out, and it was as if his entire body was about to corrode.

As for the spatha in his hand, he could not hold it in his hands and it fell to the ground.

The sword that had been stabbed into his throat and stained with dark red blood was also emitting white smoke.

It was obvious that even the fine iron weapons were corroded by the demon blood!

“Save him!”

Kant’s face was solemn, but he was not afraid of the danger in the front. He quickly ordered his soldiers behind him in a deep voice, “Go to the subterranean river and fetch water. Tear off Bunduk’s clothes and quickly wash his wounds with clean water!”

Using clean water to wash and dilute the corrosive liquid was the stupidest way to deal with such matters.

But Kant had no choice.

The soldiers behind him quickly moved forward.

They carried the struggling Bunduk together with the other soldiers who went in first and carried him back.

White smoke was still rising from his body. The smell of burnt flesh mixed with the smell of blood. In just a short while, Bunduk’s body was covered in blood. His entire body was curled up and twitching. His face and lips were pale.

There were also blue veins protruding from his forehead and neck.

His face was ferocious!

“Take off all your clothes and chain mail. Hurry up!”

Kant ordered.

The Ravenstern ranger took out the dagger on his boots and directly cut open the corroded and damaged linen robe. The slightly darker color of the chain mail actually turned black along with the dark red devil’s blood. Tiny bubbles were popping up as he forcefully tore it off, the entire chain armor was torn off, revealing the bloody body inside.

Fresh blood was flowing, but the dark red blood formed some kind of pattern and directly seeped into the body. The skin of the entire abdomen was corroded. Even as he twitched, one could see the corroded intestines!

“Damn it!”, Kant gritted his teeth.

“The evil energy is really dense. We must first cleanse it!”

The Ravenstern ranger turned to Kant and said solemnly, “Lord Bunduk’s injuries are very serious. We must be mentally prepared... for him to leave us.”

“First rescue, you guys come!”

Kant’s breathing was rapid as he ordered these rangers in a deep voice.

“Yes.”, the rangers nodded solemnly.

Bunduk was one of Kant’s few generals.

Although he was the captain of the crossbowmen, they had a perfect cooperation with the fraction of Kingdom of Rhodoks through him!

Kant absolutely did not want to see his general leave him.

And after spending a few days together, the relationship between the Ravenstern rangers and Bunduk had also greatly increased. After all, he was a famous gentleman in the Continent of Caradia. He was also kind and loving to the commoners, and he had attractive personal charm. These rangers, who also had the responsibility of protecting their homes and commoners, were very happy to be friend with him.

Thus, the Ravenstern rangers were also not willing to see Bunduk die.

As the most dangerous location in the Pendor continent, the top archers of the Kingdom of Ravenstern, who defended against the barbarians in the Misty Mountains, had their own unique understanding of minor injuries. At the very least, they could treat and handle the wounds by themselves.

After all, the barbarian shaman in the Misty Mountains also had a small amount of magic power left over from the ancient times.

Although it was weak magic power, it could still pose a threat.

Therefore, the Ravenstern rangers were very experienced in treating similar injuries.

Therefore, at this time, the elite soldiers who fought on the front lines were stronger than the mages who only knew spells and fight. At least, the mages did not know anything about surgery, let alone healing spells.

“The water is here!”

The Swadian knights quickly came over with more than ten buckets of water.

“Very good.”, the three rangers who were in charge of treating the injuries nodded. They took the linen cloth and wet it, quickly wiping and cleaning the wound that was still emitting white smoke.

The linen cloth was quickly dyed red, and it was also stained with demon blood. It was corroded and destroyed.

The ranger threw the linen to the side.

The linen was quickly corroded until it was soft and broken. The devil’s blood was as terrifying as strong sulfuric acid!

The linen was stained with water and could only be wiped for only a few times because it was corroded by the devil’s blood and could only be replaced. However, the effect was still there. After being diluted by water, a large part of the abdomen was still badly mutilated, but the demon’s blood no longer corroded the flesh and internal organs. The sizzling white smoke disappeared.

As for Bunduk, his face was already pale and he fainted with a head full of cold sweat!

The pain was almost like scraping the bones to heal the wounds.

Even he could not bear the pain!

However, the mage nodded at the side and said with a calm expression, “It’s effective. The negative energy corroding the flesh is rapidly decreasing. Although there is still a little bit left, it will not continue to corrode the flesh!”

“Very good.”

Kant reached out his hand and touched Bunduk’s nose.

There was still a weak breath.

Kant’s expression was slightly calm. He nodded and praised the rangers who were still using daggers and linen to clean the wounds. “It’s all thanks to you guys. If it weren’t for you guys, I would definitely have lost an important general!”

“We are only doing our best.”, the rangers replied modestly.

After cleaning the wounds, Bunduk ‘s abdomen was no longer filled with the previous corrosive wound.

However, the rangers still suggested to Kant, “In our opinion, it’s best to send Lord Bunduk back to the village as soon as possible and let Lord James carry out surgery and professional recuperation. Otherwise, just by cleaning the wounds alone, it’s impossible to completely heal Lord Bunduk injuries. If we delay too long, there might still be wound infections and even complications that can still lead to unpredictable outcomes.”

“Then immediately send someone to transport Bunduk back!”

Kant nodded.

The rangers’ suggestion was correct.

Turning his head to look at the few docile packhorses that followed behind to transport supplies, he instructed the seven Swadian knights, “All of you, immediately bring the packhorses and transport Bunduk back for treatment!”

“Understood!”, the Swadian knights nodded. They carefully placed Bunduk, who had temporarily bandaged his wounds, on the stretcher that was on the two packhorses. They led the team towards the ancient passageway without the slightest hesitation. This was a critical moment to begin with, everyone understood that time was critical, and they needed to act as soon as possible!

“Demon blood.”

Kant turned his head to look at the spatha that had fallen between the rocks.

This was Bunduk’s weapon.

But now, it had been corroded until it turned black. The entire wooden sword hilt had been corroded until it was rotten and fell off.

“The demon blood contains their power. It’s brutal, crazy, and chaotic. We humans are simply unable to come into contact with the power of such a demon, including the demon blood.”

The mages explained with grim expressions.
