Blood Vial
Special therapeutic blood, restores health points.
The patient's blood is blessed; this is a unique yet common healing method in Yharnam. Continuous transfusions make one feel exceptionally vigorous.
No wonder most Yharnamites are heavy users of blood.
Blood Vials are not omnipotent, but without them, one is absolutely helpless—Estus Flasks, Medicine Gourds, Crescent Moon Grass, these are a player's lifelines!
In Yharnam, blood is both a blessing and a curse.
Laurence, a scholar researching the Great Ones, founded the Healing Church to expand his research. The blood ministration he promoted was the root cause of the beastly scourge's proliferation in Yharnam.
The sources of blood for blood ministration are diverse. High-grade blood comes from the Saintess of Blood, and there are various experimental blood types. Hunters in the wild also directly collect blood from slain beasts, which can be used after simple anti-corrosion treatment.
Essentially, all these bloods are Incarnations of vitality, used to heal injuries. Perhaps some bloods contain the power of a Great One, but it is clearly not that potent.
Naturally, the quality of blood also varies.
High-quality, power-rich blood can heal all of a Hunter's injuries with just one vial—like the hand sanitizer in Resident Evil, even if you're on your last breath, washing your hands can fully restore your health.
As for the ubiquitous blood extracted from lower-tier creatures, its restorative abilities are naturally weaker.
However, compared to the readily available plasma that can be collected from various monsters and even humans, perhaps the Hunter himself is stranger?
Is the ability to accept the power of any blood a gift from a Great One, or a curse?
Five minutes later, the thick fog gradually dispersed, and the ocean returned to calm.
Saltwind City Ocean Research Institute.
Sitting at the research desk, Goki examined his body, somewhat surprised, and questioned the Nona beside him.
"Hiss... is the effect really that good?—Skadi, you healed me with just one vial of blood?"
"Yeah, is that strange? When you usually have a minor injury or illness, don't you just take a tube of blood and get better? Isn't that normal?"
Sitting properly beside Goki, Skadi held the "seaweed wine" made by Kal'tsit in her small hands, taking a sip and gently furrowing her curved eyebrows, but she kept drinking.
"Next time, I'll make you authentic Aegirian wine. This woman named... Kal'tsit, doesn't make it authentically."
The battle ended, and the Seaborn retreated back into the sea. Not fully evolved, they couldn't sustain being out of the water for long.
Meanwhile, the unknown force that had attacked the two with firearms was being pursued by Mon3tr.
Having exited combat mode, and confirming that Goki was not in any danger and was still lively, Skadi relaxed, put away her weapon, and reverted to her adorable Little Orca self.
Although the seaweed wine didn't taste great, seeing the Little Orca's long legs dangling back and forth under the table, Goki knew Skadi was in a good mood.
"Of course, we have to take down those bastards who hurt you—you are my friend, and I won't allow anyone to harm you."
Looking seriously at Goki, Skadi gently patted his hand, assuring him.
Facing the Seaborn tide in the ocean, Skadi failed to save her comrades, leaving her alone.
This time, she would diligently protect her friend and not let the tragedy of the past repeat.
"The injuries I had before were just superficial, not on the same level as the recent wounds. How could a vial of pig's blood completely heal me..."
Looking at Skadi, who was serious with a hint of cuteness, the already healed Goki smiled.
Not long ago, after Skadi's slap, Goki had to use several vials of his stored blood to restore his arm, which had been turned into minced meat.
A single vial that could heal a penetrating wound and restore bleeding internal organs—even the official Blood Vials exchanged by the Nona of the Doll did not have such a good effect.
Goki was puzzled as to why.
However, one thing was clear.
He now felt—invigorated!
"And don't worry, I know the extent of my own injuries—and I won't let anyone hurt you either."
Looking at the cute Little Orca, Goki's eyes were full of tenderness as he gently promised her.
Goki's view of Skadi was simple.
Wife.
If not his wife now, then his future wife.
Perhaps it wouldn't necessarily succeed in becoming his wife, but he must strive for that goal—that's what a Hunter does!
Come on, Goki Transmigrated to Terra! A Terra full of beast-eared girls!
If he didn't pursue the Nona he always liked, was he supposed to save the world instead?
Therefore, Goki would protect Skadi well, not letting her endure too many of her original hardships and become a detached and numb bounty Hunter.
Just like in Yharnam, when the time was right, he would make his move—but there was no rush now, of course.
Currently, his main goal was still to help Skadi adapt to life on land; romance could come later.
As for Kal'tsit... she was also a wife!
Even though the Strategy difficulty was high, and her age was dozens of times his own, what did that matter!
Queen Annaliese of Cainhurst wasn't any younger than her! He still proposed to her every day!
[Kind Hunter, are all cute females your hunting targets? Indeed, even without falling into madness, you have already become a beast.]
Sharing thoughts with Goki, the Nona of the Doll in the dream, though accustomed to Goki's personality, couldn't help but complain.
[Of course, even Anita will grow up someday—]
[Stop! Alright, that's enough! Kind Hunter, you're already perverted enough!]
Fortunately, the Nona of the Doll knew that the Hunter was all talk and no action, otherwise she would have called the police—no, reported him to the Crow Hunter.
"Mmm, mmm, it's best if no one gets hurt—even if your wounds heal, the process must be very painful, so don't do that again."
Nodding vigorously, and shaking the pointy tip of her blue hat, Skadi, of course, didn't know that the man beside her held strange thoughts about her, and instead agreed with Goki's words wholeheartedly.
Then, she looked towards the inner room, sealed by a transparent double-layered sterile door.
"But you just bled so much, and Kal'tsit drew out even more, are you really okay?—Is she really trustworthy? Are you sure?"
Just moments ago, after Goki had finally recovered, Kal'tsit, the woman Skadi found exceptionally dangerous, stared wide-eyed with a somewhat terrifying aura, approached Goki, and drew a large tube of his blood with a sterile syringe.
Skadi had intended to stop her, but Goki had calmed her down.
Afterward, Kal'tsit, without a word, arranged for the two to enter the room, then quickly went into the inner room herself.
"It's fine, treatment and examination, isn't that why we're here? Once I'm done with my check-up, you should get yourself checked too."
Smiling, Goki pulled the sewing needle out of his clothes and bit off the thread.
He was currently taking off his Hunter's attire, wearing the undershirt, and constantly mending the tears in his Hunter's uniform with the needle and thread in his hand.
He wasn't Ethan, the mushroom dad from Resident Evil, who could reattach a severed hand with hand sanitizer and even fix his clothes.
Whether it was weapon wear or clothing damage, Goki had to repair it himself.
However, against the firearm attack just now, this level of protection was merely the difference between one layer of paper and two layers of paper.
The "bullet" that hit Goki just now was simply propelled by Spell power, shooting a needle into Goki's body, essentially no different from an arrow.
If the liquid Originium injected inside was not just pure Originium fluid, but acted as a Spell reactant... the Grand Inquisitor's firearms could blow up a whole street. This pile of high-energy liquid Originium would be enough to blow up an entire district, and even Skadi would be injured.
"High-concentration liquid Originium is now flowing through my body, could it be..."
Feeling the fullness and satisfaction from within his body, and an almost inexhaustible vitality, Goki suddenly had a strange association.
Could it be that it wasn't the wild boar's blood that healed him... but the liquid Originium?
Neither Goki nor Skadi beside him had much interaction with the essence of this Terra world before.
Who knew that the first time they did, Goki's body would still be flowing with liquefied Originium that could turn a person into a bomb at any moment... this was much more potent than 97 octane gasoline, roughly equivalent to directly injecting nuclear fuel.
Although he injected strange things into his body every day, he really didn't know what effects this stuff would have once inside.
As Goki was pondering, suddenly, the door of the Ocean Research Institute was violently pushed open.
"Clatter—huh?"
Carrying a lifeless person in a green robe, a crystalline creature with four pincers and an entirely black body pushed open the door, and stared wide-eyed at Goki and Skadi.
"Goki!"
Immediately switching into combat mode, Skadi drew her greatsword without hesitation.
"Wait! Don't fight, Sister! It's one of us!"

In the brightly lit room, several instruments were humming, flashing different lights.
On one side of the experimental bench, in front of an expensive electronic microscope, Kal'tsit wore a gas mask, staring intently at the image under the electron microscope.
Currently, this room was filled with high doses of Originium radiation.
However, Kal'tsit, who always took radiation protection seriously, seemed unfazed by these dangers, merely draping a protective suit over herself, not even zipping it up.
Her gaze was completely captivated by the scene before her.
"Impossible... even if an Abyssal Hunter can resist Originium radiation, they can't do it to this extent."
In the image on the computer screen, countless dark golden crystals, upon touching each ordinary blood-red cell, suddenly dimmed.
In Kal'tsit's hand, she also gently dripped the high-concentration liquefied Originium sample, which was dark golden, and a tube of dark red liquid from a dropper, together.
Almost instantly, the golden liquid lost its color.
"Originium... you're afraid, aren't you."
Kal'tsit murmured to herself.
This traveler of the land seemed to have encountered someone extraordinary.
