63 Injuries Recovered?
I wake up to a dimly lit room with tiled flooring. To be more accurate, it was the middle of what seems to be a wide, straight underground tunnel that seems to be made of some sort of blue metal. When I tried to see how far it goes, I could only see darkness in the distance on both sides. When I looked up, I noticed that there were no holes or whatever I fell in here through. However, I noticed that the light source was from some weird, unknown stone that was glowing with a soft blue-tinted light. I realized that I am basically trapped wherever I am.
After looking back down, I noticed a lump nearby against the walls of the tunnel. I thought it looked familiar, and then when I saw the pool of blood that the lump was on, realization dawned upon me that it was the Fatty. My heart clenched as I feared that it had happened again. I quickly scurried over, trying to shake the Fatty awake.
"Oh s**tty Fatty! Are you just going to f**king die like that?! After all that I did to save you?! Why must this happen again? Why must this happen to me-" I complained to the heavens as fear entered my heart, but it was quickly shattered when the Fatty coughed up two mouthful of blood.
He's alive! But I knew it won't be for long if I don't do anything. Oh, how I regret using all my herbs and pills that I looted! There's a human still living in front of me yet I don't got the power to save him. The worst fact is that he is in this state because of taking a hit for me.
I didn't know what to do so I looked around anxiously, hoping for some inspiration. Then, my eyes landed on the Fatty's storage ring. I realized that the Fatty must have some medicine in that as he is rich! I hurriedly took off his ring, inserted some Qi into it, and looked into it. Surprisingly, there was no lock on it. Maybe that's why people were chasing after him, for his open treasure box.
Of course, what I saw caused my to drool. Although there wasn't much hard money, there were stacks of herbs lying around along with many different bottles lying all over the place. There were also a corner that had a pile of what seemed to be ... panties? *cough* Let no stray thoughts enter my mind, curse the Qidian Gods for such a deadly test. They must know that I am a honest, righteous male!
I averted my eyes away from the holy corner. Then, I started taking out the bottles of pills, searching for ones that can heal. There were a whole bunch of pills that I am too lazy to list because they have just too many effects. I finally found the ones that I needed after searching through twenty-plus bottles.
[Magical Vitality Pill] (Orange - Upper)
A pill filled with vitality that can rapidly heal physical injuries. It can regrow flesh. Effects permanently diminishes by 1% for every 10 pill taken.
[Flesh Recovery Pill] (Orange - Lower)
A pill filled with vitality that can rapidly regrow flesh. Flesh regeneration is only limited to parts that are still attached to the body. Effects permanently diminishes by 1% for every 25 pills taken.
[Blood Clot Pill] (Blue - Upper)
A pill filled with a medicinal properties that can stop blood leakage, repair damaged blood vessels, and free up blood clots. Effects permanently diminishes by 1% for every 100 pills taken.
I hurriedly went over to the Fatty with the bottles of pills. As I did not know how much of each pill was needed to heal his injuries, I simply dumped all the pills in each bottle into his mouth because his injuries looked serious. As he didn't know how to swallow, mouth to mouth ... was obviously not the go to way. Hence, I simply went behind him, wrapped my hand around his fat neck, shut his mouth tight, and then rolled his head in circles while checking once in a while to make sure that the pills rolled down his throat. Hopefully this way doesn't kill him. It's not like I wanted to kill him for his treasures. Definitely, trust me, I'm honest.
Eventually, I fed him all the pills, and without me noticing, his flesh has already grown back while he was breathing steadily. Well, that's a good sign. I moved away from the Fatty's back exhausted as I let him plop right back onto the wall.
Then, I walked back over to the pile of bottles. Hmmm ... now that I think of it, I'm injured as well aren't I? I stared at the piles of herbs inside the ring and the multitude of bottles. Since the Fatty has so much, I'm sure he wouldn't mind sharing a bit with this bro eh?
Hence, I sat down and began to "heal" my injuries.

Mmmm, definitely was worth it. When I was checking my status, I noticed my {Beast Controller} skill. I gave myself a facepalm for not thinking of using it earlier, but I guess it wouldn't have helped much anyways in that crowd of beasts as the number I can control is a measly two monsters.
I suddenly heard the painful moans of a certain Fatty. I was brought back to reality from my euphoria as I hurriedly stuff all the now empty bottles back into the ring. Then, I hurriedly scrambled over to the Fatty, placing the ring on the ground near him, and acting like I was worried for him while helping him up.
"Yo, finally awake brother? I thought you already went to meet the Old Ghost King at the bottom layers of hell," I cheekily replied.
"Urggg ... f**k you! Quit cursing for my death! I won't die until you roll over in your coffin!" the fatty retorted as he healthily bounced up as if he's perfectly fine.
"Ah, it's good that you're fine," I replied, then after an awkward silence, I noticed that the Fatty was reaching for his ring, so I diverted the inevitable by asking, "So, Fatty, why were you in the forest being chased?"
"A-ah? Oh. You see, the sect sent us on an expedition. Apparently some godly ruins had revealed itself in the forest, so we were searching for it. I came with my Grandpa, but then I met a beauty that I- *cough* I mean I saw injustice so I went to enforce justice, but before I knew it, I ended up surrounded. But with my quick wits, I managed to escape, just that I got lost- *cough* led the evil bandits away from the camp. Then, I detected you in the distance and headed towards you," the Fatty replied calmly before diverting his eyes to his hands once more, searching for something.
I hurriedly question, "Godly relic? What's that? And how did you all know it was in this forest?"
"Oh, a divine phenomenon occurred nearby the forest, hence those old folks thought it must have been caused by a godly relic's descent. Oh, by the way, have you seen my-" the fatty responded before trying to inquire about his ring, but I interjected.
"Divine phenomenon? What's that?"
"Oh, you see, there was a capital city not far from the forest, but for some unknown reason, it disappeared overnight. Hence, the some old folks went to investigate, but found no clues. Hence it was believed to be a divine phenomenon," the Fatty lectured.
Divine phenomenon ... my a**! I caused that didn't I? While I was distracted, the Fatty let out a happy squeal as he found his ring. My face froze stiff as I slowly backed off.
"Eh? Where are all my herbs? EH?! Why are all these bottles empty!?! Where did everything go-" the Fatty anxiously muttered, but suddenly froze, then directed a glare at me.
"A-ahahah, you see, I had to heal your injuries and mine, which kind of used them up. No big deal right, we are bros after all! Hahaha!" I awkwardly replied as I backed up even more.
"You motherf**ker! Do you think I'm stupid?! It doesn't require all these herbs to heal me, some of them are even poisonous! Give me back precious treasures!" the Fatty roared as he pointed at me.
"Hahaha, you see, I can't because I already ate them all," I replied cheekily.
"Y-you ate them all?! Well, you better f**king spit em back out or I'll kill you! Argggg!" the Fatty howled with bloodshot eyes as he charged at me.
I instantly sprinted away down the tunnel while taunting him, "Hahaha! That's if you can actually catch me-"
But before I can finish, one of my steps sunk into the ground more than usual as I almost tripped. Then, a light clunk sound resounded in the tunnel as an extreme amount of holes opened up all over the walls of the tunnel. Then arrows were shot out of the holes like machine guns, all aimed at me.
I couldn't even react before I was pierced by the first arrow. Then I watched hundreds of arrows flying straight towards my position. Holy f**k! Mr. Aura gimme a break!
