I started with a portal, then turned around and handed it over to the nation.

The entire process, from arrival to departure, took less than a minute.

Not a single word was spoken, not a single unnecessary movement was made, and there wasn't even any eye contact.

The house fell silent instantly, both inside and out.

The villagers, who had been making a lot of noise just moments before, were now completely stunned, their mouths agape, unable to close them for a long time.

Ryan's earlier words about "strict discipline" have now manifested in this astonishing scene, and everyone has remembered them.

This goes beyond what discipline can describe.

Those soldiers gave off a cold and precise feeling; every move they made seemed designed to kill.

And this terrifying group of people came to protect them.

Ignoring the villagers' astonishment, Lin Mo squatted down and began to unpack the backpack on the ground.

He opened the first backpack and took out a row of small bottles in red and white packaging.

AD calcium milk.

He casually opened a second backpack, inside which were bags of instant noodles printed with various patterns, as well as some self-heating food packaging bags.

Raine's eyes lit up immediately; he recognized the self-heating food. He quickly moved closer, pointed to the packaging, and excitedly explained to the surrounding villagers:

"This! This is it! Let me tell you, if you pour a little water into this, it will start steaming, and then the meat and rice inside will become warm and delicious!"

The villagers listened in stunned silence, their faces filled with disbelief.

Lin Mo didn't say anything. He took the items out of his backpack one by one and laid them out on the ground.

AD calcium milk, instant noodles in various flavors, self-heating rice, ham sausages, compressed biscuits...

These foods, which Lin Mo considered ordinary, were very novel to the villagers.

Raine had never seen instant noodles or AD calcium milk before and didn't know how to eat them.

Lin Mo picked up a bucket of braised beef noodles, and in front of everyone, tore open the packaging and squeezed in the seasoning packets, vegetable packets, and sauce packets one by one.

Then, he picked up a clay pot with boiling water from beside the fire and poured the scalding water into the instant noodle bucket.

"Sizzle—"

The noodles and seasonings quickly dispersed in the hot water, and a rich aroma of meat wafted from the paper bucket, filling the noses of every villager.

"Glug."

Someone couldn't help but swallow.

Everyone in the room couldn't help but sniff, trying to catch the unfamiliar, tempting aroma in the air.

"It smells so good..." A young man stared wide-eyed at the instant noodle cup in Lin Mo's hand and whispered.

Lin Mo put the lid back on, set it aside, picked up a bottle of AD calcium milk, tore open the seal, inserted a straw, and took a sip himself.

After he finished doing all that, he looked up at the villagers around him who were drooling with envy and made a "please" gesture.

A few minutes later, the instant noodles were ready.

Lin Mo lifted the lid, and an even stronger aroma wafted out. He picked up a fork, rolled up a small amount of noodles, and put it into his mouth under the tense gaze of everyone.

After he finished eating, he nodded to everyone.

Now, no one doubted it anymore.

Ryan was the first to rush over, and Lin Mo handed him a bucket and pointed to the hot water.

The hunter captain followed suit and quickly prepared a bucket of water. He eagerly forked a large mouthful, not caring that it was too hot, and stuffed it directly into his mouth.

"Hmm! Hah! Hah!"

Renn was scalded and jumped up and down, but he couldn't bear to spit it out and mumbled praises.

The surrounding villagers were drooling with envy. A bold middle-aged man came over, pointed to the instant noodles on the ground, then to himself, his face full of longing.

Lin Mo smiled and handed him a bucket.

Once there's a first one, there's bound to be a second.

Soon, the house was filled with slurping noodles and exclamations of praise for how delicious they were.

"It's so delicious! The noodles are so soft yet chewy!"

"This soup! My God, I've never had such delicious soup before!"

Old blacksmith Forging Stone Iron Fist also received a bottle of AD calcium milk, his large, thick fingers pinching the small bottle.

He took a sip, just like Lin Mo, and his eyes, which were usually squinted from the smoke from the stove, widened instantly.

The aroma and sweetness left this man, who had only ever drunk strong liquor and water, speechless.

Arya's mother, May, also tasted the instant noodle soup her daughter handed her. The fatigue on her face lessened considerably, and she gave Lin Mo a grateful look.

For a moment, the whole house was immersed in the simple joy of eating.

After the first group of people finished tasting, Ryan let out a satisfied burp. He walked up to Lin Mo, feeling a little embarrassed.

"Warrior," he asked earnestly, "this...this food eaten by the gods is so delicious. What do you need us to trade for it?"

Now, let's get to the main point.

Lin Mo's spirits lifted.

He carefully took out the small bottle containing the green liquid from his pocket; it was the same kind of medicine that Li Na had used before.

He held up the bottle and pointed at it, then drew a question mark on the ground with a charred twig.

Raine understood immediately. "You want the recipe for this potion?"

Lin Mo nodded vigorously.

"Hey! What's so secret about that!" Ryan slapped his thigh and laughed heartily. "Everyone in the village knows how to make this!"

"All you need is a plant called green moss. Crush it up and add some morning dew. That plant is very common; it's everywhere in the woods outside the village!"

As he spoke, he turned and ran towards the other end of the house, shouting, "Arya! Arya! Come here quickly!"

Soon, Arya was pulled over by Rein. After hearing Rein's explanation, the girl understood what Lin Mo meant.

She smiled and nodded to Lin Mo, then turned and ran back to her house. A little while later, she came running back carrying a small handful of green moss plants still covered in damp soil.

"This is it." Arya handed the plant to Lin Mo and pointed to the earthenware jar under the eaves that collected water. "Crush it, add clean water, and you'll have the medicine."

Lin Mo took the plant and carefully placed it into a sample bag.

Then he pointed to the arm of the man with the nail wrapped up not far away.

Arya reacted quickly and immediately understood. "Oh, you still want the recipe for that hemostatic ointment?"

Lin Mo nodded vigorously again.

"That's a little more complicated," Arya tilted her head and thought for a moment, "It requires two kinds of herbs and the resin of a certain tree. Wait a minute!"

After saying that, the girl ran out like a gust of wind, and Renn followed to help her.

Before long, the two brought over several different plants and a piece of translucent, sticky resin. Arya explained the process in detail, which Lin Mo recorded on camera, and then carefully put away the sample.

Lin Mo breathed a sigh of relief after receiving the two prescriptions.

His gaze swept around the room, finally landing on the blacksmith's stall, Forging Stone Iron Fist, in the corner.

There were some dark ore piled up there, along with a few pieces of iron that had been partially broken.

Lin Mo walked over, and everyone was puzzled. He squatted down and picked up a fist-sized piece of ore with dark red patterns on its surface.

He weighed it in his hand, then looked up at the old blacksmith who was sitting to the side, arms crossed, savoring the taste of AD calcium milk.

When Forging Stone Iron Fist saw Lin Mo looking over and then at the ore in his hand, he paused for a moment, then burst into laughter.

He walked over and patted Lin Mo hard on the shoulder with his big hand.

"Hero! Take whatever you fancy!"

The old blacksmith waved his hand and said in a loud voice:

"No need to change it! These stones are nothing!"
