Global Lords: I Have Information System

Chapter 413: Chapter 319: Wenresa Returns, 12 Wounded Soldiers

The surface of the bandage was already soaked in blood, with more blood seeping through, flowing down his thigh to the ground. His head continued to exude ongoing bleeding damage, his face pale as paper, and his Life Value had dropped below 40%. The injuries were not looking good.

The second injured person was the Tier Three Mad Axe Warrior, Rudnev. His condition was slightly better than Alorde Fierce Claw. He was carried face down and laid on the ground.

He had a long wound on his back, revealing his ribs at the deepest point, with flesh rolling out, looking rather bloody. Fortunately, his wound wasn’t bleeding heavily, but it was too long, making it hard to bandage. Wenresa had likely already fed him a Potion or some Moon God Spring, and his Life Value was slowly recovering.

The third injured was a Tier Two Avalon Light Infantry, whom Zong Shen had forgotten the name of, only recalling that he was under the command of the Lord named Guan Hai’an, who was killed by Sangui Yingshu.

He was one of the warriors rescued during the pursuit of Sangui Yingshu.

His injuries were the most severe, with a sword scar running diagonally from his right eye to the lower left, crossing the bridge of his nose. It not only completely ruined his right eye but also left a hard-to-heal wound on his face.

Additionally, there were several cuts on his light armor, which was in tatters, leaving cuts all over his body, stained with scarlet blood, looking extremely miserable.

His Life Value was hovering around 20%, unable to recover or continue dropping. He was in a comatose and weakened state.

The remaining nine were all those Kobold Warriors, now chattering noisily.

With the transition from the Newbie Stage to the Official Period, the impact of injuries on combat power and subsequent state became significant.

It was no longer like the Newbie Stage, where as long as Life Value wasn’t depleted, one could keep fighting to the end.

Now, as long as the body sustains injuries, it triggers various negative states, affecting combat effectiveness.

This battle, though none is missing, resulted in three injured, which Zong Shen had anticipated. Although Wenresa is an ancient hero with rich command and combat experience, she currently lacks adequate means of response.

Leading an assault on monster swarms couldn’t be as smooth as Zong Shen, as he had a wealth of means and a variety of tools to alleviate the warriors’ battle pressure, significantly reducing casualties among the team.

But Wenresa couldn’t manage that. After being reset and recruited, she had experience but lacked enough response techniques and trump cards. However, the fact that this expedition resulted in no casualties proved Wenresa’s capability.

She carried some bandages, potions, and other auxiliary supplies like Moon God Spring, though not in large quantities, thus enabling simple battlefield treatment, preventing the injuries of the three wounded from worsening further.

Currently, after returning to the Territory, under the overlapping healing from the three Holy Light Towers, their injuries have shown improvement, but further wound treatment is still needed.

Zong Shen called for Marie, took out some Moon God Spring, and distributed it to her and Wenresa, instructing them to use the Moon God Spring to clean the wounds of the injured and then re-bandage them.

He himself started treating the wounds of the most severely injured Avalon Light Infantry, removing the damaged Top Helmet, then carefully washing his right eye and facial wounds with Moon God Spring. The bloody smell was almost overwhelming.

As the Moon God Spring water was poured, the comatose warrior murmured in pain.

Seeing this, Zong Shen felt some heartache and slowed his actions, allowing the Moon God Spring to gently wash over the wounds.

After washing, Zong Shen took out a bandage and started wrapping it around his head, covering the entire head except for the intact left eye.

After addressing the main facial injuries, Zong Shen removed his light armor, started treating the cuts on his body, and once everything was done, his Life Value recovered to around 50%, and consciousness began to return, with injuries stabilizing.

The three of them treated all the injuries, ensuring their Life Values were stable, after which the other warriors and Kobolds carried the injured into the houses.

San Pang started cooking meat soup in preparation for the injured, and the other warriors Wenresa brought back didn’t have any serious injuries, so after receiving their food, they went off to rest.

After finishing, Wenresa and Dutra reported back to Zong Shen.

”Lord, we attacked a Burrow Monster Swarm of about ten thousand in number.”

”The monster swarm had two Burrow Heroes, and the injuries on the Sharp Claw Druid and the Light Infantry were caused by the Death Knight among them.”

Wenresa said slowly, and Dutra chimed in from the side, ”Dear Lord, Wenresa is right.”

Zong Shen nodded, indicating he understood.

”Alright, you have both done your best, go and rest.”

”Wenresa, you should rest too, gather with me in an hour for the next expedition.”

Zong Shen had no intention of blaming them. Wenresa and Dutra bowed once more.

Then she handed over two Basic Challenge Fragments to Zong Shen.

With these two, Zong Shen now had 130 Basic Challenge Fragments.

He accepted the fragments, nodded to Wenresa, and both of them understood Zong Shen’s intention, then left his side to get some food.

The injuries weren’t that severe, with none losing combat capability except for the rather unfortunate Avalon Light Infantry who lost an eye. In the future, Zong Shen plans to assign him to logistics work in the Territory or incorporate him into the defense forces within the Territory.

As for the injured Kobolds, there’s even less to worry about. Originally part of the reserve forces, after the Burrow Challenge ends, Zong Shen will soon establish an Ore Refining Plant in the mine, where all the Kobolds will be stationed, and conveniently, he’ll send the three Burrowing Demons to the mine to help guard them.

For now, keep these non-humanoid alien races separated from the main Territory. Over time, through cooperation and interaction, their Loyalty has risen to above 85 points, which is considered very high. Loyalty is actually a special privilege setting for the Lord, providing a tangible guarantee.

Once everyone’s back in the Territory, Zong Shen was finally at ease, planning for the new round of expedition after everyone had rested a bit, which would be around two in the afternoon.

His goal was clear, starting the journey to Odu Village!

Based on previous strategy hints and information, the Expeditionary Army dispatched by Lentates Giant City should have already arrived in Odu Village, and both sides might have already engaged in combat.

Now with the Guide Module in hibernation, Zong Shen can’t acquire intelligence without stepping out.

However, it’s clear that the battle in Odu Village won’t conclude quickly. According to Zong Shen’s estimates, it could last at least a day, and tonight, when the Demon Remnant Soul is about to be born, the real climax will ensue. Ultimately, the Calamity Raven Church’s actions are for the Fear Demon King’s remnant soul and Demon’s Blood.

Such is the advantage of intelligence, and Zong Shen has already deduced the general course of action.

Had it been another Lord, they would need to stake out the situation constantly, requiring significant energy and taking great risks to find the right moment to act.

All the warriors went off to rest; San Pang was cooking meat soup by the stove, the stove being a special attribute building, operable even by non-Heroic Level individuals.

Zong Shen didn’t choose to rest, drank some Moon God Spring, and with the special building effect of the Territory’s Vitality Totem (Blue) providing the Vitality Spring effect, his energy quickly recovered.
