I can see experience bars after being transported to another world.

When Lu Yuan woke up, it was already light outside the window.

At the edge of vision, gray and white text quietly emerged:

[Rationality: 92/120]

After a night's rest, my senses returned to normal by midnight.

He sat up, quickly washed up, and checked his equipment.

The revolver was still on his waist.

The timekeeping pocket watch had become part of my body, and I felt a faint warmth in my chest.

The letter was still in my arms; it was a little soft at the creases, but the handwriting was still fairly clear.

Lu Yuan walked to the window and looked outside.

Someone is sweeping the yard.

His movements were slow, and his eyes occasionally glanced this way.

Lu Yuan didn't look at it for long and turned to leave the room.

Being watched was to be expected.

There's no use in rushing.

The logistics department was located on the flank of the main building of the stronghold.

Lu Yuan pushed open the door, revealing a spacious hall inside.

Several long tables were piled high with various supplies.

Herbs, bandages, instruments, medicine bottles...

A middle-aged woman was taking inventory of supplies when she heard the door open and looked up.

"Are you new here?"

"Yes." Lu Yuan nodded. "Lu Yuan, report to the logistics department."

"Margaret," the woman put down the list and walked over, "is also the logistics supervisor."

She looked to be in her thirties, wearing a gray work uniform, her hair casually tied back, and she had noticeable dark circles under her eyes.

"Finally, someone's here." Margaret breathed a sigh of relief. "We've been incredibly busy lately. Two pharmacists are sick, and we're severely understaffed."

She pointed to the room next door.

"You know how to dispense medicine, right?"

"meeting."

"That's great." Margaret's tone lightened a bit. "The number of wounded has surged recently, and the consumption of medicines is three times the usual amount."

She complained, "It's all that damn missing persons case's fault; it's taken everyone away."

Lu Yuan didn't reply, he just nodded.

"There's a lot of commotion at the Tower of Learning," Margaret continued. "Three students have gone missing this month, and the Night Watch has sent several squads to investigate."

She shook her head.

"Come on, I'll take you to the pharmacy."

Margaret led Lu Yuan inside.

The pharmacy is located at the very back of the logistics department.

The room is very large.

Rows of cabinets were filled with various medicinal herbs and utensils.

A recipe manual hangs on the wall, and a mortar, distillation apparatus, and measuring cup are placed on the table.

"These are commonly used medicinal herbs," Margaret said, pointing to the cabinet. "Hemostatic herbs, anti-inflammatory roots, analgesic flowers... they all have names on the labels."

She then pointed to the manual on the table.

"The recipe is all here, just follow the steps above."

Lu Yuan nodded.

"clear."

"Then make a few bottles first, and I'll come back to check on them later," Margaret said. "I have other things to take care of, so come find me if there are any problems. Some wounded soldiers will be brought over this afternoon, so I'll call you then."

The door closed.

Lu Yuan stood in the pharmacy room, looking around.

The variety of medicinal herbs in Bronze City is much richer than in Grim Port.

Some of them were things he had never seen before.

He walked to the cabinet and began to organize the medicinal herbs.

The first cabinet contains various root and rhizome medicinal herbs.

Lu Yuan picked up a dark brown root and brought it close to his nose to smell it.

It has a pungent aroma with a hint of bitterness.

The label reads: Bitter root, used for anti-inflammatory purposes.

He put it back in its place and continued reading.

Silverleaf grass, purple heart flower, desert thistle...

One by one, classified according to category.

Hemostatic agents, anti-inflammatory agents, analgesics, detoxifiers...

At the edge of my field of vision, gray and white text kept flashing:

[Medicinal Herbs: +0.1...7.1/50]

[Medicinal Herbs: +0.1...7.2/50]

Lu Yuan's movements were very skilled, and remembering the properties of these medicinal herbs was not difficult for him.

Since his sanity level increased, Lu Yuan discovered that his memory and learning abilities had reached an astonishing level.

Although it hasn't reached the level of having a photographic memory, it's actually not that far off.

After tidying up the first cabinet, Lu Yuan walked to the second cabinet.

There were some medicinal herbs here that he had never seen before.

A pale blue petal that feels slightly cool to the touch.

The label reads: Frost Flower, from the North, can cool and reduce fever.

Lu Yuan picked it up and examined it carefully.

The petals have fine veins that resemble the shape of ice crystals.

He put it back and continued tidying up.

Time passed by little by little.

Lu Yuan sorted through all the medicinal herbs and gained a general understanding of the Bronze City's medicinal herb storehouse.

Then, he began to prepare the standard medicines.

Hemostatic drugs.

Analgesics.

These are all basic medicines; they don't require herbs with special properties.

Therefore, even without the gray text prompts, Lu Yuan was able to do it with ease.

Follow the steps in the recipe manual one by one.

Grinding, mixing, heating, filtering...

Grayish-white text kept appearing in his field of vision, correcting Lu Yuan's mistakes.

And so it went, bottle after bottle.

[Pharmacology: +0.1...17.7/50]

[Pharmacology: +0.1...17.8/50]

[Pharmacology: +0.1...17.9/50]

As his experience grew, Lu Yuan's movements became faster and faster.

Around noon, Margaret came in carrying a tray.

"I noticed you hadn't come out all morning, so I brought you some food."

The tray held bread and broth.

Lu Yuan snapped out of his daze, put down the medicine bottle in his hand, and took the tray.

"Thanks."

Margaret sat down on the chair next to her and looked at the neatly arranged medicine bottles on the table.

"You did all of this? Not bad!" She nodded approvingly. "It seems Captain Holger made the right choice."

Lu Yuan didn't speak, he just lowered his head and drank his soup.

Margaret leaned back in her chair and sighed.

"Did you know that all the missing students are alchemy students?"

Lu Yuan paused for a moment.

"The first one was half a month ago, the second one was ten days ago, and the third one was three days ago," Margaret continued. "The intervals are getting shorter and shorter, and the people upstairs are getting extremely anxious."

She shook her head.

"They all disappeared at night, and there were no signs of a struggle in the dormitory."

"It's like...walking out on my own."

Lu Yuan frowned and asked:

"The Tower of Learning's defenses are so weak? And isn't this the Bronze City? Strange things shouldn't be able to get in, right?"

"The guards of the Tower of Learning are no less capable than those of us on the Night's Watch, and it's also the heart of the Bronze City, which is why it's so strange."

"There's a lot of panic going on at the Tower of Learning right now. Many students are afraid to go out at night," Margaret continued. "Especially the alchemy students. They've all applied to change dorms, but the tower won't approve them."

She lowered her voice.

"I've heard that the Night's Watch suspects it's some kind of ritual."

"It requires specific individuals...alchemy students might meet certain criteria."

"But what exactly it is, how would we logistics personnel know?"

She paused, looking at Lu Yuan.

"By the way, you're so young, why don't you go and study at the Tower of Learning?"

"If I remember correctly, we Night's Watchmen have continuing education requirements. Would you like to give it a try?"

Lu Yuan raised his head.

"It's so dangerous now, and you still recommend I go?"

"Don't worry, you can't go to the Alchemy Department. The Night Watchers can only audit some courses related to your extraordinary abilities at the Tower of Knowledge."

"I see. I'll give it a try if I have the chance."

"That's good." Margaret smiled. "The Knowledge Tower has far more knowledge than we logistics staff do."

She stood up and picked up the tray.

"Wounded soldiers will be brought in this afternoon, so remember not to leave yet."

The door closed.

Lu Yuan sat there, looking at the bread in his hand.

Laurina is an alchemist.

All the missing students were alchemy students.

The intervals are getting shorter and shorter.

He must go to the Tower of Learning as soon as possible to check on Laurene's condition.

You can also take this opportunity to explore what you can learn from the Tower of Learning.

Lu Yuan recalled Lawson's several reminders, as well as that large number of gold shields.

This is what he owes Lawson.

Lu Yuan then thought of Mina, Ink...

I wonder how they are doing now.

After Mina's talent awakens, she should be able to receive better protection.

Moreover, with Mo Shui by her side, no one would dare to mess with her.

And Brent...

Lu Yuan shook his head.

Thinking about these things is useless.

Grimport has sunk.

Those memories are sealed away; they can't be spoken of, and they can't be retrieved.

He could only keep moving forward.

First, fulfill Lawson's request.

Then... let's see what else this world has in store for him.

After dinner, as Lu Yuan was engrossed in grinding experience points again, the door was pushed open.

Four watchmen carried in two stretchers.

"Where's the doctor?! There are wounded here." One of the men in front called out before even entering the room.

Lu Yuan stood up and walked over.

There were two people on a stretcher.

One person had a broken arm, and the other had a visible laceration on their abdomen.

However, none of them seem serious; at least there are no injuries such as contamination.

That makes sense, though. My own abilities are still unknown, so I can only deal with these kinds of wounded soldiers.

"Put it here." Lu Yuan pointed to the bed next to him.

The watchman laid the wounded down. "The doctor is in your care now."

After saying that, he turned and left.

Lu Yuan walked over to the injured man with the broken arm.

At the edge of my field of vision, grayish-white text appeared:

[Target of testing: Patients with fractures]

[Status: Radius fracture in the forearm, clean fracture line, no signs of comminuted fracture]

[Treatment Recommendation: Repositioning and immobilization, use a splint to stabilize the affected area, apply hemostatic medication, take precautions to prevent wound deterioration, and it is recommended to rest for one week and then have a follow-up examination]

Lu Yuan began to treat the wound.

First, check the location of the fracture to confirm that there is no displacement.

Then secure it with a splint and wrap it with bandages.

Skilled movements, experience bar ticking up:

[Basic Medical Care: +0.1...2.4/20]

"Not bad." The wounded man's clenched teeth gradually loosened. "Better than those two who collapsed from illness."

While securing the splint, Lu Yuan asked, "As long as it doesn't hurt. By the way, where were you attacked?"

"The alley behind the Tower of Learning." The Night Watchman, his arm broken, shifted slightly. "Damn, that thing is incredibly fast. I think it's some kind of mutated superhuman. Don't let me catch him!"

Another injured person added, "The dark figure suddenly rushed out from the corner of the wall, and I didn't even have time to react."

"Did you see what it looked like?" Lu Yuan asked.

"No, it was too fast." The man with the broken arm shook his head. "But that thing had a strange smell."

"What does it taste like?"

"I can't quite put my finger on it... it smells like something is rotting, and it has a very pungent odor."

Lu Yuan thought for a moment, "Rotten? Isn't this place supposed to be free from pollution and the supernatural? Then it's most likely that the smell of decay is caused by long-term contact with something."

Lu Yuan continued bandaging, his tone calm: "Where's the strength?"

"It was huge; it sent me flying with a single blow," the injured man continued. "It was definitely a superhuman, and not a low-level one."

After treating the fracture, he walked over to another injured person.

The abdominal stab wound was not deep, and the bleeding was not excessive.

[Detection Target: Night Watchman (Cut)]

[Status: Abdominal laceration, shallow wound, no internal organs damaged.]

Treatment recommendations: Stop the bleeding, prevent the wound from worsening, and guard against internal bleeding.

Lu Yuan began cleaning the wound.

Apply hemostatic medication, clean the blood and dirt around the wound, and then re-bandage.

[Basic Medical Care: +0.1...2.5/20]

"Are you on a missing persons case?" Lu Yuan asked while tending to his wounds.

"Yes." The one with the abdominal injury nodded. "We were ordered to patrol around the Tower of Learning, and that's how we ran into them."

"Any other discoveries?"

"No, that thing came and went quickly," said the one with the broken arm. "But I think it was purposeful, not a random attack."

Lu Yuan finished wrapping the last bandage.

"It's best not to leave the base at night unless there are missions," the man with the broken arm warned. "It's very dangerous over there right now."

Lu Yuan nodded.

"Understood, thanks for reminding me."

After treating the wounds, the four watchmen took the two wounded men back.

Lu Yuan stood still, looking out the window.

The Tower of Learning.

Alchemy student.

A shadowy figure.

These clues were pieced together in my mind.

But not enough.

He needs more information.
