Chapter 112 Account
Perhaps he had already used up his chance to enter the mental space for the day, because Jiang Hui slept soundly for the first time in a long time and didn't dream of anything.

When she woke up, it was already completely dark outside. Jiang Hui groggily thought that since it was dark, she should go to sleep, so she decided to continue sleeping.

"Awake? Then don't sleep. Wait until you've finished this and then get a proper sleep. You can sleep all day." A voice suddenly rang in her ear, like a thunderclap from a clear sky, instantly waking her from her drowsy state.

Why is there a sound all of a sudden? Wait…where is she? How long has she been asleep? What time is it?

Jiang Huiru sat up in shock, but before she could move, an arm reached out from the side and pressed down on half of her shoulder, rendering her unable to move.

She heard the other person whispering instructions to someone, asking them to help with the inspection.

Then, people in white uniforms appeared and moved over. By this time, Jiang Hui had recovered from her dream and her groggy mind was gradually clearing. The medical staff then used various testing instruments to check her condition and, after confirming that she was fine except for physical and mental exhaustion, left with the report.

She asked, somewhat confused, "Is it over already?"

"If you're asking about the training camp, then that's all over." But things aren't so easily over... Stark sat on a chair not far from Jiang Hui's bed, looking like he'd been waiting there for quite a while.

Although she knew that after what had happened, the training exercise was no longer the main focus, she still cared about it because she had worked so hard for it all along. But hearing the news directly from her class teacher dispelled her last concerns and made her feel much more relaxed.

Jiang Hui's heart, which had just been at ease, jumped up again, and she was fully awake all at once. The lingering drowsiness from her initial awakening was now almost gone.

She then recalled everything that had happened before she lost consciousness, and the series of actions that could be described as extreme maneuvers that followed, and immediately asked, "Then who did we bring back..."

"He has been sent to the military hospital and is still receiving emergency treatment."

Jiang Hui thought to himself that it seemed she hadn't been unconscious for very long. With injuries like that, emergency treatment only had two outcomes: either she survived or she didn't... Given the technology here in interstellar space, the results would probably be available very soon.

As if reading her mind, Stark glanced at her and said calmly, "You've been sleeping for almost ten stars."

Jiang Hui froze immediately.

Ten stars? She reached the destination at night, which is ten hours. Did she sleep until the early hours of the next day?

Jiang Hui noticed that the tent she was in was very small, but there were no other beds besides her, so it must be a separate medical tent. She began to wonder if she was still in the finish line area.

Moreover... even with the advanced medical technology of interstellar space, ten hours of emergency treatment seems a bit outrageous, doesn't it? After all, a human body is only this small. Ten hours would be enough for doctors to perform an incredibly delicate surgical procedure on Earth. What's more, this is an emergency surgery aimed at restoring vital signs, so the blood probably needs to be replaced several times.

In other words, for the past ten hours, the doctors have been racing against death, and that person could lose their life every second. And they're still trying to save them... Can they really survive?

Stark suddenly said, "He can live. If you had brought him any later, even ten times the rescue time would have been futile. He almost died completely, without even a chance to be saved. The only reason he survived to this point was because of the few remaining traces of living cell biological agents in his body." It's clear he's a very tenacious person.

"Did you give him that stuff?" Stark asked with a hint of amusement.

Jiang Hui nodded, not surprised that the other person knew. She figured she'd fainted as soon as she reached the finish line, and only the other guy traveling with her could tell her what had happened; it was probably him who told her.

"I don't know what that medicine is for. I saw it at the lodging point and couldn't resist getting one. The person who gave it to me said it could even cure severed limbs. The instructor was already dead, and we had no other options, so we tried feeding him this. Luckily, it worked." It wasn't a waste of her five points; if it could save a life, it was worth it.

Stark remained expressionless, but inwardly nodded. They checked the records and confirmed that Jiang Hui had indeed exchanged a live cell bio-pharmacy at the first location, made by third-year student Barton. He was one of the few students in his cohort who had already obtained his pre-pharmacist qualification, and was indeed qualified to brew and sell this potion.

This potion is considered to be at the entry level for formal pharmacists, and it is also of medium to high difficulty among all beginner potions, requiring high levels of refining techniques and purity.

Its function is also quite simple: to promote wound healing and delay wound deterioration. As a treatment, it is not very targeted, but when resources are scarce or there is a lack of targeted treatments, this can be used as a general-purpose remedy.

In short, it's a medicine that can boost energy even for healthy people, with minimal side effects but a wide range of uses.

So the advertising slogans that senior gave to Jiang Hui weren't entirely false; they did indeed have that effect, just not as exaggerated as he claimed.

However, at the school, this medicine can be purchased with a prescription for a small amount of star coins at the medical office, so it is not considered a rare item.

Barton's demand for five points from Jiang Hui was indeed excessive. After all, accumulating personal points is extremely difficult, and there are few ways to acquire them; some people might not even reach double digits in three whole years. Furthermore, this was Jiang Hui's personal decision and not the school's responsibility.

Moreover, if it weren't for this vial of medicine, that young Warrant Officer Mays might have perished here. Upon learning that the other party had gone to such lengths to protect the students, even Stark, who had little interaction with him, couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration for him.

Similarly, the fact that these two kids managed to bring back their instructor, who was practically dead, under such a critical and desperate situation with nowhere to turn for help, certainly deserves praise. They could even be considered the two most commendable students among all the new recruits in this training exercise.

As both the homeroom teacher and an elder, Stark felt gratified but also couldn't help feeling a surge of anger. He was now filled with lingering fear; that child had been incredibly reckless.

Even before the entire process of evidence collection was complete, he could glean from the words of bystanders and subtle clues from the scene the perilous journey the two had taken. It was truly a stroke of incredible luck that these two reckless fools had made it to the finish line alive.
