Chapter 77: The Tree-tailed Alligator Snapping Turtle’s Body Is Full of Treasures
As the Little Fox had already instructed Giles previously, Giles had never thought of asking Hash about the problem with his left arm.
After finding out that the Little Fox could treat the injuries on his left arm, Giles’ attention had been mainly focused on how to solve the problem of the Metal-feathered Eagle’s incomplete evolution.
However, to his surprise, Hash noticed the injury on his left arm. Furthermore, her tone had become much gentler.
“I do have a method.”
Hearing Giles’ question, Hash snapped out of it and looked at Giles with interest.
“Giles, when you mentioned the ‘Absorbing Vine’ skill earlier, I could tell that you have a certain level of understanding towards the plant-attribute skills.”
“I’ll test you on a question now. If you can answer it, I guarantee that I can treat your left arm.”
Hash’s suggestion intrigued Giles. He didn’t care whether Hash would help him treat the wound on his left arm.
The main reason was that Hash seemed to have a pretty good impression of him now. If he could build a good relationship with Hash, an Elite Beast Tamer, it would be convenient for him to look for her to ask her questions in the future.
At the thought of this, Giles’ lips curled up slightly as he nodded at Hash.
“No problem, Your Excellency. Please ask.”
Hash turned around and patted the Tree-tailed Alligator Snapping Turtle that was resting on its back.
“What is the most famous proverb related to the Tree-tailed Alligator Snapping Turtle?”
Upon hearing this question, Giles answered without any hesitation, “The entire body of the Tree-tailed Alligator Snapping Turtle is filled with treasures.”
After subconsciously uttering this answer that even children knew, Giles instantly understood what Hash meant.
“Your Excellency Haxi, is there any fruit or herb on your Tree-tailed Alligator Snapping Turtle that can treat my left arm?”
Other than growing some mushrooms and moss on its body, the turtle shell on its back could also grow some herbs. As for its tree-like tail, it could also bloom and bear fruits as the seasons passed.
Furthermore, be it mushrooms, moss, herbs, or fruits, they were all nurtured by the spiritual energy in the body of the Tree-tailed Alligator Snapping Turtle. Therefore, they were very beneficial to the consumer’s body.
This was also the reason why the saying “the entire body of the alligator snapping turtle is filled with treasures” had been around for a long time.
“Bingo!”
After hearing Giles’ answer to her question, Hash smiled and snapped her fingers at Giles to congratulate him on getting it right.
With that said, Hash turned around and climbed onto the turtle shell of the Tree-tailed Alligator Snapping Turtle. She pulled out a few herbs that were rather eye-catching.
Under the sunlight, the dark-blue herbs emitted wisps of mist, as if they had been roasted by the sun.
Hash skillfully tied the herbs into a bunch and threw them to Giles, who was standing below.
“Giles, this is your reward. Catch this bunch of Pulse Condensation Herb.”
“Oh, okay.”
Although Giles was surprised that Hash would give him the herb so directly, he still caught the Pulse Condensation Herb that Hash threw over. Then, he examined the Pulse Condensation Herb in his hand.
“This is the Pulse Condensation Herb?”
The Pulse Condensation Herb was dark blue in color, but its icicle-like roots were gradually turning a light blue. There were also several patterns that looked like spiritual energy had frozen on them.
Furthermore, under the scorching sun at noon, Giles could feel a chill coming from the stalk of Pulse Condensation Herb in his hand.
Although Giles could sense through the spiritual energy emitted by the Pulse Condensation Herb that the Pulse Condensation Herb was no ordinary herb, he did not have a deep understanding of the effects of the Pulse Condensation Herb as most of the herbs he usually came into contact with were Bronze and Silver-rank.
He only knew that the Pulse Condensation Herb was a Gold-rank herb and that the medicine made from it had the ability to stop bleeding.
Just as Giles had his head lowered while thinking about what other effects the Pulse Condensation Herb had, Hash, who was sitting on the back of the Tree-tailed Alligator Snapping Turtle, swung his legs and told him the answer.
“Although the Pulse Condensation Herb looks hard, as long as you inject some spiritual energy into it, it will quickly soften.”
“At that time, you can grind all these Pulse Condensation Herb into a paste and smear the paste on your wounds before you sleep every night.”
“In this way, it can repair the damaged blood vessels on your left arm. Furthermore, the Pulse Condensation Herb can also guide the absorption of spiritual energy.”
“Therefore, you don’t have to worry about any accidents happening when you absorb the spiritual energy.”
So it’s like that…
After learning about the effects of the Pulse Condensation Herb, Giles understood why Hash had given him the Pulse Condensation Herb.
If he wanted to resolve the injuries on his left arm from the source, it would not be as simple as healing the wounds on his left arm. Instead, he would have to find a way to absorb all the spiritual energy in his left arm.
Otherwise, even if the wound had completely healed, it would have burst open again due to the sudden explosion of spiritual energy, resulting in a new wound.
Also, if the spiritual energy in his left arm was to explode again, not only would the wound on his left arm be torn open, his entire left arm might also explode and his internal organs might be injured.
Giles recalled the instructions the Little Fox had given him previously. In fact, it was the same as Hash’s intentions.
The method they proposed was to allow the wound on Giles’ left arm to heal as much as possible. Then, they would guide Giles to absorb the remaining spiritual energy in his left arm.
It was just that the Little Fox used the spiritual energy released by its healing skill as a guide, while Hash used the Pulse Condensation Herb as a carrier to guide the spiritual energy.
“Since the method that Hash proposed is similar to Little Fox’s, I can ask Little Fox later if I can use both methods.”
With this in mind, Giles placed the stalk of Pulse Condensation Herb in his hand into his spatial wristband before thanking Hash, who was sitting on the back of the Tree-tailed Alligator Snapping Turtle.
“Thank you, Your Excellency. If you need any help in the future, you can come to Starlux Gym to look for me.”
While thanking Hash, Giles also made a promise to him. After all, Hash had helped him several times today.
Firstly, when he was unaware of it in the morning, she had helped him deal with the dispute at the Beast Tamer Association branch.
After coming to Starlux Gym, she had also helped his Metal-feathered Eagle resolve the hidden dangers of the remnant beast cores in its body.
Now, she had been given a bunch of Pulse Condensation Herb that could treat his left arm.
Although it was true that Giles’ abilities were limited now and he might not be able to help Hash much, the favor Hash had given him today was already etched in his heart.
“Giles, don’t be so polite.”
Regarding Giles’ promise, Hash just continued to shake her leg, not taking it to heart at all.
However, she still reminded Giles to improve his strength as soon as possible, “But you have to increase your strength first. Don’t wait until I really look to you for help. You haven’t even reached the Gold rank yet.”
Aside from work reasons, the reason Hash helped Giles today was mostly because she admired and respected Giles.
After all, no matter which era it was, there were very few Beast Tamers like Giles who dared to risk their lives for their spirit beasts.
