Doctor Player Chapter 135
As if it were a threatening shot, the arrow pierced the party’s feet.
Soon a cloud of sand rose and a group of horsemen appeared.
It was a Lan!
“The desert here is our territory. Go back, strangers. If not extinguished immediately, the warrior’s spear will pierce your hearts.”
Raymond and the others hardened their faces.
It was an unexpectedly hostile response.
‘what? I heard it’s a lack of neutral alignment?’
In the desert, there are many types of immigrants.
I’ve heard that the Lan tribe is the least moderate.
“We came because we have a business to do with your tribe. We have something urgent to tell you, so please guide us to the chieftain.”
“Shut up!”
“…!”
The bald man in the lead shouted.
“Last time they tried to get through us like that and steal our treasure. Thanks to that, the chieftain’s son is still in the throes of death, so he won’t be fooled this time!”
Raymond realized the situation.
Someone came before them and attacked them under the guise of a deal.
‘This is why. Timing.’
At that time, Elmud made a determined face and stepped forward.
“I’ll step out.”
“Elmude?”
“They are a warrior race. There must be something in common among the same warriors.”
Elmude breathed in and stepped forward. And he opened his mouth with his characteristic stuffy tone.
“My name is Elmud, a relief engineer at Penin Treatment Center. The Lord has come for you. So thank you for that grace… ….”
“Shut up!”
“Really. The Lord is for you, so open your heart and accept the grace… ….”
The man who was at the forefront of the repeated persuasion attack was sincerely angry.
“Oh shut up!”
Raymond hurriedly pulled Elmude behind him.
‘Oh, that’s even more counterproductive, you sweet potato guy!’
He let out a deep sigh.
‘What should I do?’
Then a message popped up.
[Quest happens!]
[Liberate the desert tribe from suffering!]
(Medicine Quest)
Medicine Grade: Too Mess

Quest Description: You have come to solve the disease of the desert tribe. However, I encountered unexpected hostility. It is also the doctor’s duty to clear up the patient’s misunderstandings. Clear their misunderstandings and free the desert tribes from the pain of disease.

Bonus: Absolute Favor of the Desert People
Unexpected Big Treasure (?)
Raymond frowned.
‘Do you think that’s easier said than done?’
I feel it every day, but this system. Quests were often thrown without any countermeasures.
I was at a loss, but fortunately messages came to my mind.
[This is unfairly preventing you from working hard for the patient.]
[This is obviously ‘truth’! The opponent’s truthfulness is confirmed as ‘low’.]
[The ‘truth response’ is manifested!]
At that moment, an answer came to Raymond’s mind.
‘Because there is no need to solve the problem according to the quest.’
Raymond paid attention to the clear conditions.
It’s a ‘disease cure’.
So, as long as the results are good, it is not necessary to free their minds.
Raymond decided to go the other way.
“All right. Let’s all just go back.”
“master?”
“We are not here to beg. I came to help them, but I can’t believe they are being treated like this. Let’s just go back.”
Raymond threw precipitation.
‘I didn’t do anything wrong, so why do I have to go out in a low profile?’
I thought.
‘And they are a race of warriors who revere the strong. Even if you try to make up your mind and bend your back, it will only look ridiculous and have no effect. I’d rather go out strong.’
We are not sorry!
What I miss is you!
I had to give it that feeling.
Only then will we be able to bring out the true story.
“….”
I knew it.
Opponent kept his mouth shut.
Raymond shrugged and turned his back.
“I can’t help it. They say they don’t need our help. I have no choice but to go to the next ‘Honjok’. If you are a ‘Honjok’, you will be grateful for our help.”
mixed race.
He was a long-time rival of the Lans.
Originally, the Ran people were more moderate, so they were chosen as negotiators, but if this happened, it was something to think about talking to the Hon people.
Raymond’s party actually turned their backs and prepared to leave.
Eventually, the opponent opened his mouth.
“Wait, stranger! What are you trying to do? I just want to hear the story.”
“We are here to solve the ‘desert bug’ that has plagued you for hundreds of years.”
“Desert bugs?”
The man on the other end hardened his face for an instant.
But even that, for a moment, caused a big laugh.
“What nonsense! Hundreds of desert bugs… …Or maybe it has plagued the people of the desert for thousands of years. But you’re going to show up out of nowhere and solve it?”
The other man frowned.
“They were swindlers, too.”
An invisible energy emanated from the man’s body and focused on Raymond.
It was a secret technique of the Lan people who concentrated their lives to subdue their opponents!
The Lan tribe used this secret skill to evaluate the opponent’s will.
However, Raymond flinched for a moment, but easily endured the murder.
[He is under unreasonable pressure to work for patients!]
[The skill ‘Heart of Steel’ is manifested!]
Because he had a heart of steel that reached Class C!
“Think whatever you want.”
Raymond thought it was time to bet.
‘If things really don’t work out, I can go to the Honjok and negotiate.’
“I wanted to solve the pain you are experiencing, but if the people involved refuse, it can’t be helped.”
It was the moment when Raymond’s eyes met the other man exactly.
An additional message popped up.
[I’m fighting for the patient!]
[The skill ‘Doctor’s Charisma’ is manifested!]
A trustworthy dignity emanated from his body.
The steel heart’s strong will and charisma combined to exude powerful trust.
‘lie…I’m not doing it.’
The other man, Muhad, swallowed a saliva.
he felt it. that the other person is telling the truth.
There was also reason to believe so.
‘I can’t believe there is no shaking even when I face my life head on. The opponent is a warrior with a strong will.’
Muhad is one of the best warriors of the Lan tribe.
I just spewed out a life force, but the opponent flinched for a moment and didn’t back down.
Despite the effect of the Heart of Steel, Muhad was convinced that Raymond was a warrior with strong convictions.
A warrior with such convictions would not lie.
“Who are you?”
Raymond pondered for a moment before opening his mouth.
“I am Raymond, the prince of Houston Kingdom, one wing of the Crusader Empire. Please speak up in the future.”
* * *
There was a reason he lied about being a prince.
This is because when negotiating, the position must be high so that an equal story is possible.
‘Because the distant desert immigrants won’t know the circumstances of Houston Kingdom.’
In this way, Raymond faced the chieftain of the Lan tribe as the prince of Houston Kingdom.
The chief of the Lan tribe was an old man of old age.
“Meet the prince of another country. I am Tangkan, the chief of the Lan tribe.”
“This is Raymond. I came here to propose a close deal.”
“I heard the story. Are you going to solve the bugs in the desert?”
“That’s right.”
Tang Kan let out an empty laugh.
“Honestly, if you weren’t the prince of a foreign country, I would have kicked you out right away. What a nonsense story. You probably know what kind of terrible bugs in the desert are, right?”
“Of course I know.”
“You mean you can solve it?”
“Yes, it is possible by using the ancient secret medicine techniques I have learned.”
Tangkan shook his head and shouted outside.
“Hello! Show me the worm of the desert!”
Then, the strangers brought a patient who had his legs covered with a cloth on a stretcher.
“Look.”
Poof!
When the cloth was turned back, a terrifying sight was revealed.
A hideous worm was breaking through the skin of his leg!
These are desert worms!
Each time the insect squirmed, the patient screamed in pain.
“Ahh. my legs! Wow!”
The other disciples of Penin Healing Center swallowed their moans.
Although they were accustomed to all kinds of cruelties of patients through the war, seeing insects piercing through human skin was an unbearably disgusting and horrific sight.
“Not one or two people have had their legs cut off or died because of this cursed insect. But is there any way to solve it?”
“Yes, it is.”
Raymond replied firmly, but the Lan chieftain, Tang Kan, still looked in disbelief.
It is an insect that has plagued people for hundreds of years even before the Lan tribe took root in the desert.
However, when he suddenly appeared and said that he could solve the problem, I couldn’t believe it.
“Yes, assuming there is a way to exterminate the bugs in the desert. Then what price do you want?”
“Please lend your strength to defeat Archduke Berard, the villain of Drowton.”
“…!”
Archduke Berard.
The moment he heard the story, Tangkan’s eyes sharpened.
“…He owes us too. Not too long ago, he approached our tribe’s treasure and made her bleed.”
At those words, Raymond was able to guess one thing.
The recent raid on the Lans seemed to have happened because of Grand Duke Berard.
“It is good. If you really tell me how to deal with the bugs in the desert, I will help drive out Berard. What the hell is the coronation method?”
Raymond said how.
“When you drink Oasis water, boil it and drink it.”
“…what?”
“Also, don’t dip your bug-infested feet in the oasis. If you keep these two, you can eradicate insects in the desert.”
Tangkan put on a blank expression.
“…Are you scorning me now? You can get rid of bugs in the desert with just such a simple method?!”
Thankkan looked in disbelief that he could eradicate those fearsome bugs with such an easy method.
Raymond shook his head.
‘It’s real. If you follow those two principles, you can eradicate bugs in the desert. Just like doctors did on modern Earth.’
desert worm.
It was the same kind as the ‘Guinea worm’ that is prevalent in the Middle East and Africa.
To be precise, it is a parasite that lives in the oasis in the form of an egg and becomes infected when a person drinks water.
Then, it penetrates the stomach wall and grows inside the human body. When the time comes, it crawls toward the legs and penetrates the skin of the legs to come out.
‘At that time, a burning pain was felt and people dipped their feet into the oasis, and then tens of thousands of eggs spread from the wounded leg back into the oasis.’
Raymond thought to himself.
That is, you only need to keep two things.
Boil water to sterilize it to kill the parasite eggs and soak the injured leg in the oasis to prevent the spread of new parasites.
If you follow that principle thoroughly, the insect parasites in the desert will be eradicated.
“If you intend to scorn me, get out of here! Even if we are a tribe of the desert, we are not foolish! What kind of desert bugs can be eradicated just by boiling water!”
Raymond shook his head at Tangkan’s reaction.
This is an expected reaction.
Of course, I thought of ways to convince him.
