How to Live as an Illegal Healer

Chapter 80

80. Ironic Mutation 1

“It’s no use? What kind of small grain is that?”

The head said with a face that he did not understand.

“Using a heal after removing the poison is the basis of the treatment.”

“That’s the basics...”

Unlike the heel almighty, this man knew how to use a heel properly.

‘It is standard practice to use medicine or other treatments to remove poisons or abnormal conditions that cannot be cured with heals, and then use heals.’

As the man said, if you have completely removed the fishman’s blood, you can use the heal to heal the wound.

But what if the poison hasn’t been removed?’

‘The problem is... look closely at this patient’s arm.’

Kang Seung-hyeon pointed to the soldier’s arm and said.

Even after wiping off all the blood, the skin continued to turn blue.

“Once the poison has been removed, the discoloration should stop. But far from stopping, it is spreading more and more.”

Using a heel in this state would only delay the symptoms. And it reappears in a worse state.

“...I wiped off all the blood on my skin.”

The chief muttered with a puzzled face. As he said, all the blood on his arm has been erased.

“As they said, you can use a cloth to wipe off the fishman’s blood on your skin. It’s not that dangerous because you just have to clean it and dry it in the sun.”

However, if there is a wound on the skin, the story is different. The soldier’s arm had scars from a previous fight.

“Four wounds...!”

“If the fishman’s blood enters the body through the wound...”

Kang Seung-hyeon approached the lake and brought a glass of water.

Chew!

Then, the patient’s arm was sprayed with lake water. Then, something like scales began to sprout from the fish-man’s bite.

The patient looked at his arm and screamed.

“Huh...Huh!”

“This one!”

From the blue skin to the fish-like scales. The soldier’s arms were changed to look like fishman’s arms.

“Symptoms of ironic mutation begin.”

Half-fish mutation.

It is a disease in which the human body turns into a fish-man when infected with the blood of a fish-man.

At first, only the area around the wound is mutated, but over time, the whole body changes into a fish-man’s body.

In the end, he loses his sanity and becomes a complete monster.

“If a human who has turned into a fish-man attacks and infects another human, another fish-man is born.”

“This can’t be...”

“Then I... am I going to become a monster now?”

The soldier said with a desperate face. Looking at his terrible right arm, which can hardly be considered a human arm.

“No, it can get better.”

If you miss the timing, there is no hope, but treatment is possible when the symptoms are in the early and middle stages.

“The patient’s condition is in the early stages of ironic transformation.”

When it is an early symptom, the body can be restored immediately by administering medicine.

“At this time, if there is a cure, you can get better without sequelae.”

“A cure?”

“Any city near a fish-man colony would have at least one anti-fish man remedy. Hurry up and go to the Kamar government office...”

“That...that’s...”

said the chief soldier with a stiff face.

“Kamar has been protected by the Magic Tower for dozens and hundreds of years.”

Pitsta Lake is one of the representative fish habitats. So, the mage tower used a barrier to prevent the fishmen from coming up on the water.

“Occasionally, when fighting fishmen that appear, fishmen’s blood often came in contact with them, so I knew how to deal with them. But...”

Until now, thanks to the protection magic cast by the wizards, he had never been bitten by a fishman.

“Since there is no chance of being bitten by a fish man, I haven’t heard of a solution to it.”

The leader sighed with a confused face.

So far, Camar has had almost no battles with fishmen, and has never been contaminated by fishmen’s blood.

Of course there is no cure.

“If it’s a village around Pitsta Lake, there might be a cure, but...”

There was no way he could go to another village now that a huge number of monsters came.

I’m not even sure there will be any medicine.

“There is a high probability that other villages are also being attacked by fishmen now.”

“Even when facing each other on the water, it was not an easy opponent to knock down. If we fought in the water without skill... we would be annihilated.”

The leader covered his face with his hands and lamented.

The desire to save soldiers is like a chimney, but you cannot sacrifice dozens to save one.

“Do you need dozens of people to go?”

“yes?”

“I alone am enough.”

Seunghyun Kang took out a barrier carpet for rest from his inventory. When the carpet was laid on the floor and the soldier lay on it, light began to emanate from the magic circle.

[Summons Freea’s crossbow.]

‘Since I laid it on the carpet, the transformation will slow down.’

Kang Seung-hyeon summoned a crossbow and aimed it at the soldier’s arm.

[Freeah’s Bond Pouch]

[Generates arrows for the half-fish cure that failed.] A

half-fish cure that became a failure after using the fish-man’s rotten liver.

It cannot cure the disease, but it can slow the progression of the infection even slightly.

Pak Pak!

A flying arrow pierced the soldier’s arm.

The moment the arrow pierced his arm, the scales that had sprouted on his arm melted slightly and the skin that had turned blue-red slightly softened.

“I delayed the progress by writing a failed work, but I need to make a proper cure as soon as possible.”

Kang Seung-hyeon looked at the lakeside and said.

“I’ll go and get the fish man’s liver.”

Kang Seung-hyeon is thinking of going underwater to get the fisherman’s liver to cure the soldier’s illness.

Just as Byeoljubu went up to the land to find a rabbit’s liver to cure the dragon king’s illness.

“Are you really okay?”

The head soldier said with anxious eyes.

“If you don’t have a water breathing magic, you can usually only last 3 minutes under water.”

“If that’s the case, don’t worry.”

Even without water breathing magic, there is a way to breathe without using magic.

“Because there is a wind potion.”

Kang Seung-hyun took out a wind potion. One of the additional effects of the wind potion is underwater breathing.

When using a potion, there is no need to use magic, so there is no need to be caught by fishmen.

“Wind Potion...? However, liquid potions cannot be used underwater. If you give me time, I’ll get a solid potion for underwater breathing...”

“It’s okay.”

Seunghyeon Kang has [Absorption] and [Fria’s Bond Bag] skills. Thanks to this, you can receive the potion effect without any problems even in the water.

“You guys just wait here.”

-“Wow, the rabbit battle is reversed. Going into the water to get a liver.”

Kim Ho-jeong looked at the lake and said.

“Iknow, right. Rabbit Battle Revenge.”

As a native of the land, it is time to give back the pain of having your liver stolen by the Dragon King.

“good! I’ll come too!”

“No, Kim Ho-jung, please stay on land.”

Since the barrier carpet for relaxation is a very rare item, it needed someone to guard it.

“Please stay and watch over the rug.”

“Aren’t you protecting the patient?”

“The soldiers will protect the patient, but not my rug.”

Before entering the lake, Kang Seung-hyun checked his inventory one last time.

‘It’s hard to do a lot of damage with an ordinary arrow.’

Just as aquatic creatures are penalized for coming onto land, land creatures are penalized for entering the water.

In water, except for some skills, speed slows down and power decreases.

‘I’ve prepared my own countermeasures, but this isn’t enough.’

Seunghyun Kang opened the status window.
