Upon arriving at the small pond at the campsite, Roger saw piles of stones of varying sizes around the edge, which were likely collected by the villagers to widen the pond.
What was originally a shallow pool about knee-deep has now been dug to a depth of more than a meter and widened considerably. The edges have been reinforced with slightly thicker wooden stakes, making it the only stable source of fresh water for the temporary camp.
Led by old Jalrolf, Rogge arrived at the shed next to the pool. Before he even lifted the straw curtain, he could already smell a strong stench of blood.
Lifting the curtain and going inside, one could see that Olsen was still lying on the door panel, a rather shocking scene.
The bloodstains on the ground had not yet been cleaned up. Olsen's hands had been freed, but two gruesome bloody holes in his palms were still oozing blood. He also had many knife wounds and whip marks on his body that had not been properly treated. It was clear that Olsen had suffered a lot of torture after being captured.
Ai Nuo knelt beside the door panel, her body covered in blood. She was carefully wiping the blood off Olsen's body, the burlap in her hands already soaked with blood.
Old Quay was sweating profusely as he bandaged a deep cut on Olsen's arm. He had ordered everyone else not to come in unless it was urgent, but when he heard the curtain being lifted, he looked up and saw Roger enter. Quay's eyes lit up, and his tense face instantly broke into a bright, sunny smile.
"Master Rogge! You're finally back!"
Old Kui's voice was filled with obvious urgency and exhaustion, and he looked at Roger as if he were a savior.
"This stinky bear has lost too much blood; I really don't think I can save him!"
Hearing Old Kui insult his own brother, Ai Nuo curled his lip, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes.
But when she heard Lao Kui say he wasn't confident he could save her brother, she immediately panicked.
"Lord Yar, I was wrong before, I'm so sorry!"
"Please save my brother! We'll definitely make it up to you later!"
Aino was somewhat incoherent, constantly apologizing and begging Old Kui to save him.
The girl seemed to still be holding a grudge against Old Kui, whose expression darkened. Ignoring her, he turned to Roger: "Master Roger, my medical skills are truly inadequate. Do you have any way to save this person?"
Roger knew Old Quay wasn't lying; with his limited medical skills, he truly lacked the ability to bring someone back from the brink of death!
Upon hearing that Roger had a way to save her, Aino also raised her head sharply, and a spark of hope instantly rekindled in her dim eyes.
Her eyes were full of hope as she looked at Roger; at this moment, Roger was the last straw she could grasp.
"Chief Rogge, please save my brother! If you can save him, my life is yours. I'll do anything you ask!"
Roger did not answer immediately, his brow furrowing slightly.
He walked to the door panel, squatted down, and carefully examined Olsen's injuries and condition.
Olsen was still alive, but he was barely breathing and his breath was very weak.
Virgil had previously stated that he had already given Olsen medicinal wine.
But at this moment, it seems that it has had no effect whatsoever.
Roger understood that the experience candy was not a panacea. Its effect on the injured was due to its slight ability to improve physical condition and stimulate the body's potential.
Its essential function is to enhance the body's constitution and stimulate potential by containing vital energy.
During the duration of the medication's effects, it indirectly enhances the injured person's healing ability and vitality, helping the seriously injured person get through the most dangerous moment!
It cannot replace regular treatment, nor can it directly and quickly repair bodily damage. In essence, it is more like a catalyst that can enhance cell activity and unleash the body's potential.
Just like when he saved Lao Kui before, although he was seriously injured, he could still barely support himself for a long distance. Therefore, he was able to awaken his potential with the experience candy and even direct others to save themselves.
Therefore, for seriously injured people, no basic medical procedures can be omitted!
But now, after being tormented by the pirates for so many days, Olsen has lost too much blood and may not have had a drop of water for days. His body is already extremely depleted!
A normal dose of medicinal wine is simply not enough to compensate for his severe deficiency of qi and blood!
Roger thought, since the regular dose wasn't working, he would increase the dosage!
We must forcefully make up for the deficit using the life essence contained in the experience candy itself, and make sure that Olsen wakes up first!
After a moment's hesitation, Roger reached into his pocket and pulled out a handful of experience candies.
When Old Kui saw that Roger held a dark blue "miracle drug" in his palm, his eyes widened and his throat bobbed involuntarily.
He had been saved by this miraculous pill, so he naturally knew how precious it was.
Roger ignored Old Quay's self-illumination, struggled to pry open Orson's clenched teeth, and stuffed five experience candies into his mouth one by one.
The experience candy melted in his mouth and flowed down Olsen's throat into his body.
Aino had been watching Roger's every move closely. When she saw this, her tense body suddenly relaxed, and she collapsed instantly. At this moment, she had no choice but to trust Roger.
"Lord Rogge! Thank you! Thank you for saving my brother!"
Roger waved his hand, his face serious, and said, "This medicine can only keep him alive temporarily. If his wounds aren't treated properly, he still won't make it."
As he spoke, he counted out five more experience candies and handed them to Aino.
"Keep these five safe. If he hasn't woken up in two hours, feed him one every two hours."
Aino quickly reached out and took the five translucent blue pills, holding them as if they were some rare treasure.
Old Kui, watching all this, swallowed hard, his eyes filled with envy.
He later heard that when he was injured, Roger had also given him five pills at once!
His wound healed very quickly a while ago, and now the scars on his back are almost healed, although they still itch occasionally.
Thinking about this, Lao Kui couldn't help but marvel at how powerful the medicine was!
Roger noticed Old Quay's expression and his brows furrowed slightly.
Old Kui scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed, and said, "Master Rogge, there are a few other villagers who were rescued, and their injuries are quite serious—should we treat them too?"
Rogge had already learned from Virgil that all the injured villagers had drunk medicinal wine mixed with experience-boosting candy.
Those people's injuries weren't serious, far less severe than Olsen's. As long as their wounds were treated properly and they rested for a while, they would recover sooner or later.
He didn't have enough experience points to distribute indiscriminately; good steel should be used where it's needed most. Only if the other party was also in danger would he consider giving out three or five.
Aside from Olsen, who was seriously injured, Roger had promised Eileen he would keep him safe from the start.
There's not much difference between medicinal wine and experience candy, so there's no need for others to waste any more.
"They've already provided assistance; he just needs to have his wound treated and rest properly."
"Master Rogge, have you run out of medicine?" Old Kui asked cautiously.
Roger nodded, replying only casually, "Indeed, there's very little left."
He does have some left, but there's no need to tell them how much he has.
Even if he doesn't give it to them, no one will say anything.
Aino, standing to the side, kept her eyes fixed on Roger, her gaze filled with gratitude.
In her view, Roger had given all the remaining life-saving medicine to his brother!
She instinctively reached out to protect the pocket where the five pills were hidden.
No matter what, no one is allowed to take another one from her until her brother recovers!
For the next while, Roger assisted Old Quay in cleaning and bandaging all of Olsen's wounds.
The torches were replaced several times, and by the time they burned out again, it was already late at night. Even the chirping of insects outside the straw curtain had gradually faded away.
Old Kui wiped the sweat from his forehead and let out a long sigh:
-
"It's finally all taken care of. Now it's up to the goddess of spring to see if she will protect him."
Afterwards, Old Quay spent some more time re-treating the wound on Roger's arm.
The frighteningly thick suture needles pierced through the flesh, and even Roger, who was mentally prepared, couldn't help but gasp.
The pain was so intense that a layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
Old Kui wiped the sweat from his forehead and let out a long sigh: "Finally, it's all taken care of."

"I haven't used my sewing skills much, I'm a bit rusty! Please don't mind."
Although Roger remained silent, he was inwardly groaning, "What the hell is this needle?! It's so thick! It hurts like hell!"
Turning to look at Aino beside her, she saw that the girl's eyelids were drooping, and there were dark circles under her beautiful eyelids. Her face was pale, and she was obviously extremely sleepy.
Roger then realized that Aino hadn't slept for two days and two nights, and that he had just made her feed him medicine every two hours, which was really inconsiderate of him.
"Aino, go and rest first. Give me your medicine, I'll watch over Olsen for you!"
Upon hearing this, Aino jolted awake and instantly sobered up.
She instinctively pressed the pills in her pocket and quickly shook her head: "No need, Lord Rogge, thank you for your kindness."
I can keep watch here, no need to trouble you, I'm not sleepy at all!
Seeing her like this, Roger stopped insisting and walked out of the shed with Old Quay, leaving the cramped shed to Aino and his sister.
Stepping out of the hut, the campsite was completely silent, with only the occasional bird calls coming from the distant mountains and forests.
In the sky, the moon was bright and the stars were few; the vast and boundless night sky was deep and silent.
In the entire camp, only three villagers on night watch were still awake, patrolling back and forth at the edge of the camp with their weapons.
"Come on! Make do with what I have at my place!" Old Kui said in a low voice. "I've cleared out my shack. It's a bit simple, but it's better than sleeping on the ground!"
Roger nodded happily and followed Old Quay deeper into the camp.
Along the way, Rogge saw the villagers of Brokenbor who had given up their huts sleeping in twos and threes around the campfire, covered with simple animal skin blankets.
The campfire was almost out, with only a few dark red embers remaining, occasionally spewing out a few tiny sparks.
Upon arriving at Old Quay's hut, just as Roger thought he could finally get a good night's sleep and relieve the day's fatigue, Old Quay suddenly rubbed his hands together and spoke, his tone filled with barely concealed excitement and anticipation: "Master Roger, I just wanted to ask, if you had the raw materials, could you remake this miraculous pill?"
Roger was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, then suddenly looked up at Old Kui.
He recalled that long ago, to conceal the source of the experience candy, he had casually mentioned to Old Kui and the others that this medicine was made from century-old ginseng and a variety of precious medicinal herbs.
"Could it be—?"
