My days started to look pretty much the same again . I would search for herbs during the day while avoiding any dangerous groups of animals and beasts . I hunted when necessary but only groups of animals I could handle, I didn't want to risk anything . The Variants started to show and even the Elites were now more apparent .
'This is the Great Forest I remember . Variants upon variants' I thought and tried to comb through as many areas as I was able to . Moving deeper into the forest, was not ideal in my current state . During the week of my monotony, I managed to find 3 out of 4 replacement herbs that I needed, the only one that was missing was Glacial Lotus . 'I didn't find any ponds or lakes past that week, it's a bit worrying . I don't need anything big, something that has no flow of water like the river . I need to find someplace like this or I'm screwed!' I thought and continued my search .
Usually it was not so hard to find a pond or a lake inside the forest but because of snow, a lot of ponds might've been covered . Large lakes would be visible from far away but for some reason, I saw no such lakes past few weeks . 'I can't give up, I still have a bit over a week of time' I thought and searched for a lake or a pond .
I tried following the animals sometimes and their tracks . Animals needed water and some might not use the river but a pond or a lake as their water supply . Another two days pa.s.sed and I finally found a pond that was a decent size . 'Finding a pond is just the beginning . The pond has to contain the Glaciar Lotus . If it doesn't, I will have to search again' . I hoped for the pond to have some Glaciar Lotuses and began inspecting it . After inspecting it for a while, I noticed some Glacial Lotuses growing on it . 'I'm in luck, there are 3 Glacial Lotuses but there is a problem as well' I thought as I looked at the herbs growing on the frozen pond .
There was a group of boars living there . It wouldn't be a big problem if a White Boar was not there . 'I have no other choice, I hope the situation doesn't repeat itself . I have to kill the White Boar first and foremost' I thought and moved towards the group of boars . There wasn't much, I could use for stealth . This was winter season and all the leaves, gra.s.s and whatnot, were not present . I figured I could try posing as a weak human, the boars would get closer to me and probably try to hunt me down but not with all their power .
I walked slowly towards the group and even displayed my cut arm properly to show that I was week . When the group noticed me, I also pretended to notice them "just now" . I then turned around and started running slowly in the opposite direction . The boars took the bait and went after me . Even better news was that the White Boar was at the front of the group . 'It probably figured that I'm "weak" and there should be no dangers . This is good, it will be much easier to kill it that way' I thought and ran at a constant speed while turning my head around sometimes to show "panic" on my face .
The boars caught up quickly and only the White Boar stepped out of the ranks . It was probably in order to display how the boss of the pack, deals with something like me . I ran without stopping and when I saw the White Boar make its move, I used my Domineering Aura and sped towards the boar instead .
With my increase in speed, the White Boar was quite surprised and dazed, it was also slightly affected by my aura . I took that chance and threw a few daggers at it, then took out another dagger in order to engage in close combat . The daggers. .h.i.t the mark and the White Boar woke up from the daze with a roar . The White Boar was now injured but still quite dangerous, most importantly, its cry for help was most dangerous . It started to back away but it was too late . I gained my momentum and the dagger in my hand already slashed .
"Swooos.h.!.+"
The dagger cut through the White Boar's head and killed it instantly . 'I can take it easy now' I thought and finished off the other boars that stared in disbelief . Some tried to run but those Normal Boars and Yellow Variants, could only dream about outspeeding me .
After the fight, I picked up the Glacial Lotuses immediately . The lotuses were very cold to touch and if not for my resilience due to all the training I did, my hand could be injured by the coldness . I collected the herbs first, in case I had to flee suddenly . I had what I came for, I then took care of butchering the White Boar . It had the tastiest meat when roasted, I didn't take any other meat as I didn't want to carry too much .
While I was looking for suitable place to set my camp for a while, I thought about all the ingredients 'I have enough herbs to create 3 batches of the Trantum Solution . I need 1 Glacial Lotus for each batch and because I have only 3, I can only try 3 times . First, I should find a place suitable for my little experiment . I can then create my solution and catch an animal of some sort to test out my solution on it' .
After searching for over an hour, I found a suitable place to set my camp up . 'There is a small stream which will provide clear water . I also have some thin trees that I can use as a resource to create my tools' I thought and went straight to work . I needed tools so trees had to be cut down . Of course, I chose thin trees that were very young still . This way, I wouldn't have to trim them too much and I wouldn't need to spend a lot of effort in order to cut them down .
I cut down couple of trees and started making stuff like jars, bowls and all sorts of containers . Those things would be used to store my medicine, solution and the poison . I also tried making some tools like pincers, tweezers and other general tools used for extraction as well as application . It took me the rest of the day just to carve those things but I was finally done and I had my tool set .
My plan for the next day was to catch a small animal, then create the solution and test the solution on that animal . 'We will see how a roughly made solution works tomorrow . When I have the results, I can try some improvements in case it doesn't work . I have limited tries though . On the 3rd try, I will have to use it on myself and it has to work' I thought and went to sleep . The next few days would prove whenever I was able to accomplish that medical procedure or not .
