Inside of the medical tent, some emergency food and medicine were dispensed, and Josephine Wong had some specially crafted chocolate with a cup of tea - the tea was taken from Xianshi Inn, in a cupboard that was designated for her. All the other team members and agents from the Division were also provided with the tea, and were advised to drink it up as soon as possible.

“Hmm, I was never a tea man.” Alexander took a sip of the tea and said: “But I’ll have this kind of tea any day. This is from Mr. Yu’s inn, no?”

“Yes, it’s one of his favorites. I still remember him bragging about it non-stop when he first got it working.” Josephine Wong smiled and shook her head: “Tomorrow I will order another kind of tea to dispense the team, it should help with our recovery.”

“How is this kind of tea cultivated?” Blue took a very deep breath after his first cup, then asked: “If this was put on the market, it could be worth quite a lot. And the aroma - I’m no tea expert, but it’s definitely one of the best I’ve ever tasted. Someone should recommend it to be on the list of Treasured Enchanted Tea.”

“Please, Blue, you’re Bri’ish.” Vivian rolled her eyes and said with a pretend British accent: “Must be something to impress you so. I really can’t taste tea even if my life depends on it - all I could tell is that it’s hot water with a leafy taste. I mean, I can tell it’s got the magnificent healing properties and all, but isn’t tea just flavorless leaf soup?”

All in the medical tent started laughing, including Josephine Wong.

“Yeah, you’re right. I see you and Jianmen will see eye to eye.” Josephine Wong rubbed her forehead and said with a smile: “He did say something like that to me once. And Blue, this tea will indeed be worth quite a lot, but I’m afraid it won’t ever be recognized officially to be on the list.”

“Hmm, why’s that?”

“It’s cultivation process is not plant only.” Josephine Wong shrugged: “There were a lot of crushed bugs and bone marrow in the fertilizer.”

Blue and Nameless started coughing right away.

“Relax, Nameless, it’s only in the fertilizer.” Pei laughed out loud.

“This monk was just surprised.” Nameless shook his head: “For this monk knows a thing or two about tea also, yet fertilizers with bone marrow are quite unheard of.”

“Hello?” just this moment, Josephine Wong received a call: “Yes, like I asked, half of it… Yes, confirmed, half a kilo of Emerald Dragon Scale, three hundred grams of Phoenix Lily Petals and two jars of Asclepiaca Salve.”

“That’s a lot of expensive medicinal material.” Pei laid down her cup with a surprised look on her face: “For Mr. Yu?”

“Yes. Though there’s not much anyone could do. But I’ve gotta try.” Josephine Wong sighed.

“I thought you were not worried?” Alexander asked.

“Oh, I was worried.” Josephine Wong said: “But it’s just like he used to say, if worrying doesn’t help then one should try to stop doing it. Instead, one should try their best to push the situation in the better direction. I will attend to him once I am able to help.”

“So, I would very much like to know what’s next.” Vivian finished her tea: “What did you do after you got your brain takeout food? How did you find your teammates? And how did it go between you two?”

----------------------------------------------------------

“So these tracking devices of yours and your teammates, you’re sure they’re working fine? ” when climbing over a small rocky hill with Josephine Wong, Jianmen asked.

“It’s forged with the best Deep Sea Sapphire, it’s supposed to be able to withstand immensely chaotic energy fields for a prolonged period of time. The energy fields here are no joke, but we’ve been here for what? Barely over a week? They should still work.” Josephine Wong answered, while walking with a walking stick: “They might not be always super accurate, but I have faith in their reliability and durability.”

“Okay, if you say so.” Jianmen chuckled: “How are you feeling? If you take on that lizard monster by yourself now, how confident are you in your odds?”

“Well...” Josephine Wong thought for a while: “I’d say 50-50. Considering that I am still nowhere near my peak, and that I would probably not have woken it up with a full force strike. If it was me, I would have done it with a gentle poke like an idiot, which would lose me the element of surprise.”

“Ah, don’t sell yourself short. You’d be able to create your own advantage.” Jianmen chuckled: “And you will leave this place as soon as you’ve gathered all your teammates, right?”

“Yes.” Josephine Wong shook her head: “Don’t worry, you’re here before us, so we will honor tradition and the International Treaty on the Discovery of New and Unexplored Realms, the major access and developmental access and claims would still be yours.”

“Meh, I don’t have the time or energy to do the developmental work here. You can have it if you want.” Jianmen shook his head: “I just want something simple in return.”

“Wow, okay, why don’t you name what you need?”

“I’ll make you a list. It’s gonna be quite a lot. Think it over and have a lawyer read it if you want.” Jianmen laughed out loud, as he pointed his new bone sword made from the lizard monster’s rib bone forward: “Oh look, you better be careful of what you breathe in, we have a fucking oil swamp slash tar land ahead of us.”

“Fuck!” Josephine Wong frowned at what they were looking at: “Fuck! Fuck! My god, they’d better be okay.”

“I’ll help you track them down.” Jianmen nodded and picked up some dirt from the ground: “This place shouldn’t be a popular place for the beasts either, so don’t worry and let’s get to work.”
