Versatile Mage: Lord of the Styx, but Lord of the Living

Chapter 130 Medical Miracle, Master of Pharmacy? Pointing the Finger at Luo Mian!

In the pharmaceutical industry, it is a major taboo to test drugs on patients without fully confirming their efficacy.

At the very least, shouldn't we test the waters with two live mice?! (Mice: You're so high and mighty!)

But Lu Ran acted quickly and confidently, and in no time he poured the medicine made from eagle red grass into the patient's mouth.

Seeing this, Mr. Deer didn't know what to say.
The others had even less authority to criticize Lu Ran.

Lu Ran, after all, wore the badge of honorary councilor; given their status, they were not allowed to stand out.

At this moment, everyone could only wait and observe the patient's condition.

Lingling was also very nervous, her little hands gripping her short skirt, causing wrinkles to appear.

Lingling knew that Lu Ran had prepared the potion in advance in Shanghai, with her witnessing.

Despite failing many times, Lu Ran still confidently took out the medicine.

what does this mean?
He was truly confident that he could cure this patient and that he could solve the epidemic in this city!

But Lingling had no idea that Lu Ran could also concoct potions!
When did he become a master of medicine?!

Within seconds, the patient who had been given the medicine by Lu Ran gave feedback and began to cough lightly:
"Cough cough."

He then spat out a mouthful of pus and blood.

Surprisingly, the patient's complexion had also improved considerably.

Mr. Lu was stunned, as were all the experts in the pharmaceutical field in the camp.

Mr. Lu pointed to the two people, and soon professionals stepped forward to examine the patient's body with sophisticated instruments.

then
"Mr. Deer, the virus in this person's body has been cleared!" a healing apprentice hurriedly said.

Upon hearing this, the tent fell silent at first, then the group of healing apprentices and masters quickly became agitated and went into a frenzy.

"This, this is simply a miracle!" a pharmacist murmured.

"How did you manage to concoct such an effective potion, Councilor Lu Ran?" Mr. Lu asked without hesitation, even using respectful language.

Countless gazes, burning with intensity and anxiety, were fixed on Lu Ran within the tent.

Lu Ran coughed lightly and shamelessly explained:

"The epidemic that has plagued Hangzhou for many days has absolutely nothing to do with the totem 'Black Serpent' mentioned by the higher-ups."

Many people scratched their heads in confusion: what is the totem snake?
This time, the totem snake did not appear in the public eye.

However, Master Lu and other healing masters knew something about it. Zhu Meng had mentioned it to them and suspected that the epidemic originated from the totem Xuan Snake.

"So, what Congressman Lu Ran means is the origin of this epidemic?" Mr. Lu asked, frowning.

Lu Ran glanced at him and said calmly:

"The source of this epidemic is the blood of a demon called the Lingzhao Blood Rat."

"The cure for this plague is a plant called eagle-red grass, which is the conclusion I have reached after recent research in many places."

They make it sound so grand and impressive.

In reality, Lu Ran put a lot of effort into refining this potion with Eagle Red Grass as the main ingredient.

During his two months in Shanghai, Ye Xinxia, ​​who had cultivated healing abilities, helped him a lot.

It took a lot of effort to come up with this medicine that could save the city.

"Plague, the demonic Blood Eagle Red Grass?"

Mr. Lu and other pharmaceutical experts narrowed their eyes and quickly discovered the blind spot:

"Councilor Lu Ran, are you implying that the key to this outbreak lies within the city?"

Lu Ran smiled when he heard that.

As expected of an old hand, he gets it right away.

Since these people already had a guess in mind, Lu Ran directly unleashed his ultimate move:
"That's right, this outbreak is all because of fake blood products!"

"And the blood in this fake blood serum is made from the blood of the Clawed Blood Rat!"

These words caused an uproar! Mr. Lu and the others were clearly astonished.

The importance of blood agents is self-evident.

How dare someone cheat in this area?!

"Who? Who is it?!" Mr. Lu said coldly.

Lu Ran glanced at everyone, as well as the sick people in the tent, and said:
“Mr. Lu, I will certainly not let those who are profiting from fake blood products get away with this, but the most urgent task is to treat all the patients in the city who have been infected with the plague!”

Mr. Lu was taken aback, then nodded and said:
"Yes, I was attached to appearances."

Another master craftsman suddenly said:
"But this eagle-red grass itself has little value, so Hangzhou doesn't have much of it in reserve."

Upon hearing this, everyone's face darkened.

We have the method to manufacture it, but we don't have the herbs. What are we going to do?!
Mr. Lu subconsciously looked at Lu Ran and asked nervously, "Councilor Lu Ran, what... what should we do? Even I'm not entirely sure where Eagle Red Grass grows."

"Should I send someone to the Hunter's Alliance to offer a bounty now?"

Lu Ran shook his head and smiled, "There's no need for such trouble. Before coming here, I had already considered the possibility that the Eagle Red Grass might be in short supply, so I made preparations in advance."

As he spoke, he took out the Eagle Red Grass that Lingling had prepared in advance. The number of Eagle Red Grass in his spatial ring was more than five thousand, which was more than enough to treat a thousand patients!

Mr. Deer's eyes widened, and he exclaimed in surprise:

"Councilor Lu Ran, you truly have uncanny foresight!!"

"Time is of the essence, let's start making the potion now!"

Lu Ran understood and, along with several pharmaceutical experts, engaged in further discussions.

The few who had fallen behind looked at each other, knowing they had to wait for the teachers to finish their learning and discussion before they were qualified to ask for advice.

Lingling looked bewildered and confused.

what?
Has Lu Ran resolved the crisis in Hangzhou just like that?

Less than half an hour later, Lu Ran and Mr. Lu came out, with a smile on Mr. Lu's face.

Mr. Lu and his colleagues truly deserve to be called manufacturing masters; their skills are extremely high.

He didn't need much guidance from Lu Ran to refine the potions; he understood many of the steps immediately and even had his own insights into the underlying principles.

In just over ten minutes, they were able to quickly produce the potion.

"It's done!"

Mr. Deer hurriedly called the healing apprentices inside the tent to come in and learn.

He was going to go with Lu Ran.

“Councilor Lu, who is behind this?” Mr. Lu asked softly.

Lu Ran glanced at him and asked with a smile:

"In Hangzhou, there are only a handful of people with real power to directly allocate blood serum. Who do you suspect more?"

Mr. Lu remained silent for a long time. Then, he looked up at Lu Ran and said firmly:
"Is it Luo Mian?"

A perfectly timed look of surprise appeared on Lu Ran's face as he squinted and asked:

"Oh? What makes you say that, Mr. Lu?"

Mr. Lu said calmly:
"Recently in Hangzhou, only the West Fortress has used a large amount of blood serum, supposedly in preparation for the battle against the White Demon Eagle of Xiling."

"As far as I know, the Western Fortress is under the control of Luo Mian."

Lu Ran nodded in deep agreement:

"I suppose Mr. Lu has already made up his mind. I have already sent people to the West Fortress to arrest him. Everyone will be gathering at the Lingyin Tribunal headquarters soon."

"Mr. Lu, are you willing to stand up for the people of Hangzhou and testify against Luo Mian for his crimes?!"

Mr. Lu's eyes flashed, and he said firmly:

"It is my honor."
