The supplies depot is located in a separate room below the base.

After passing through a passageway, a huge metal door with a sign hanging on it came into view.

Goods exchange point.

Enter the gate.

There is a dazzling array of equipment on display here.

They have everything from ordinary firearms to cold weapons engraved with runes.

As soon as Lu Yuan entered, a girl who had been hiding under the counter jumped out.

"Hello! Oh? A new face? What would you like to buy?"

The girl looked at Lu Yuan with great interest.

Before Lu Yuan arrived, he had already figured out what he lacked, and his current shortcomings were obvious: his attack methods were limited and he lacked explosive power.

When encountering something strange, you can't say you're completely defenseless, but at most you can only run away.

"I need a weapon that can damage the supernatural," Lu Yuan added. "Preferably one that is powerful and easy to carry."

Upon hearing this, the girl thought for a moment, then suddenly remembered something and led Lu Yuan to a counter.

Several large-caliber firearms, gleaming coldly, were displayed in the counter.

These firearms are silver-white in color, with numerous intricate patterns engraved on the gun body, complemented by black carved handles, making them mesmerizing to look at.

Lu Yuan glanced around and pointed to a revolver with dark red patterns engraved on its barrel.

"Could you give me a brief introduction to this game?"

Upon hearing this, the girl immediately opened the counter, took out the pistol with a grin, and then explained:

"The enchanted standard revolver is called Flame. Its characteristic is that it contains a slight fire element enchantment, and the bullet will produce a small-area explosion effect when it hits the target."

"And this was shipped directly from headquarters, handcrafted by a master craftsman! It's definitely not comparable to those cheap knockoffs!"

"And it's cheap! Only eight points!"

Seeing the joy flash in the girl's eyes after she mentioned points, Lu Yuan immediately understood that this girl definitely received a commission.

"This one's the one, but give me two boxes of silver-plated bullets as a bonus." Lu Yuan started bargaining.

The girl frowned upon hearing this, and said with a somewhat bitter expression:

"No way, you can't just have two boxes of bullets delivered to you! These things are expensive."

"Shall I switch guns?"

The girl looked even more distressed. "Don't change it. This gun is so powerful, it'll definitely suit you perfectly. Besides, think about it..."

"Let's try a different gun."

"Hey, wait! Here you go. Since you're new, I'll give you two boxes of silver-plated bullets! This is a one-time offer!"

The girl readily agreed, as if afraid that Lu Yuan would change his mind.

"Did I ask for too little?"

Lu Yuan thought for a moment, then asked:

Do you have any ink blocks here?

"Ink blocks? What do you need those for?" The girl tilted her head and thought for a moment. "If I remember correctly, there are a few boxes in the collection section."

The girl walked deeper into the room, and after a while, she came out holding a small red brocade box.

"This ink block from the East is very valuable! It requires one point!"

The girl took out the box and placed it in front of Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan looked at the box full of ink blocks and nodded.

"I want it."

The girl was taken aback. "No refunds! Pay up!"

Lu Yuan took the items and left the supplies exchange area.

I tossed the little red box in my hand, and couldn't help but sigh inwardly:

"Hopefully 'Ink' will like eating this stuff, otherwise we'll be at a huge loss."

I'm exchanging this thing not only to thank Ink for his help back then, but also to build a good relationship with that little gadget.

After all, it unlocked higher-level access to the library.

With the help of ink, finding what you need is always easier.

Returning to the clinic with the new equipment, Lu Yuan felt much more at ease.

Sitting at my desk on this rare peaceful night, I've taken stock of my current state:

[Taboo Studies - Seeker: 3.3/50]

[Rationality II: 27/47 (Experience)]

[Pharmacology: 3/50]

Basic Medical Care: 2.3/20

[Basic Medicinal Herbs: 12/20]

[Current Status of Grim Port: 27/50]

[Imperial Language - Reading: 89/1000]

The fastest progress so far has been in Imperial Language, which has grown considerably without anyone noticing, followed by Taboo Studies and Reason.

At this rate, rationality will reach level III soon; the only question is how much the Prime Minister's intelligence will be improved in the next upgrade.

Otherwise, Yi Meng wouldn't be able to hold on for long.

After that, two more points were added to Grimm's current situation without him realizing it, but he still doesn't understand what these things are for.

The pharmacology was learned while studying how to make the silvergrass mixture, and a few more points were added.

Lu Yuan thought for a moment and decided that his priority for the next period of time was to improve his sanity and basic herbalism. He had hardly gained any experience with the Night Watchmen these past few days.

Furthermore, one must have a wealth of knowledge as a foundation to acquire the skill of "Taboo Studies - Specialization".

Fortunately, their strength is indeed steadily improving.

But in a corner unknown to the protagonist.

Rumors are circulating within the Night's Watch about "that reliable rookie doctor."

Everyone knows that Hans brought back a powerful foreign aid who is suspected to be on the verge of becoming a superhuman.

Amidst the undercurrents, a piece of intelligence was quietly passed out, with a red question mark drawn next to Lu Yuan's name.

...

For the next two days, Lu Yuan almost never left his room.

He threw himself into the study of herbal medicine, frantically gaining experience by using the herbs he could get from the Night's Watch and his previous stockpile.

[Basic Medicinal Herbs: +0.5...]

[Basic Medicinal Herbs: +0.5...]

Finally, on the evening of the third day.

[Basic Medicinal Herbs: 20/20]

[Your knowledge of medicinal herbs is gradually becoming more proficient, and you've gained another perspective on understanding the world. Medicinal Herbs: 0/30]

[Pharmacology: Quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes; previously obscure knowledge of herbs and plants becomes clear at this moment. Your understanding of matter is no longer limited to appearances, but touches upon a deeper level.]

Lu Yuan felt a sudden clarity in his mind, and now he was confident that he could perfectly replicate the mixture of Light Silver Grass.

Just as Lu Yuan was about to try.

Suddenly, there was a rapid knocking on the door.

"Knock knock knock!"

The voice was heavy and panicked.

Lu Yuan's eyes narrowed. He tucked the newly enchanted revolver into his waistband, walked over, and opened the door.

Lawson was standing outside the door.

But his appearance at that moment made Lu Yuan's heart skip a beat.

Lawson was soaked to the bone, with salty seawater dripping from the hem of his clothes and pooling on the floor.

His face was ashen white, and patches of hard, fish-scale-like keratin had grown on his exposed neck and the back of his hands.

"Dr. Lu... help... help me..."

Lawson's voice was hoarse, as if he had grit in his throat, "The medicine... your medicine isn't working!"

"Come in!"

Lu Yuan pulled him into the house, peeked outside and made a gesture to indicate that there was something going on, then quickly closed the door.

After entering the house, Lawson slumped into a chair, his face pale and his expression dejected, no longer displaying the arrogance of the previous days.

He seemed to have been provoked, and said, word by word:

"The dream has changed... completely changed!"
