How to become a mermaid

Chapter 320 A White Whale Named Nick
Zorro has a device called [Is it good?or bad? ]'s special potion, which is specially made by it to detect whether there is a tumor in the living body.

Pour the creature's blood into this bottle of potion, shake and mix well. After half a minute, if the potion turns green, it means that the tumor cells in the blood have not exceeded the standard, but if it turns black, it means it's over. There is a tumor.

Unfortunately, the beluga blood tested black.

"Boom~!" Putting down the potion bottle in his hand, Zoro conveyed the unfortunate news to the white whale, "Unfortunately, the meat ball in your stomach is indeed a tumor, and it is also very large, with a diameter of at least In order to prevent it from growing again, we need to confirm the treatment plan as soon as possible."

"Tumor?" Hearing Zorro's words, Beluga's face changed drastically.

It patted its tail vigorously, and shouted eagerly: "What should I do, will I die!"

"I'm only over 200 years old this year, and I'm still a single whale. I don't want to die yet!"

"Crash! Crash!" Under the intense reaction of the white whale, the sea water in the underground bay splashed up tens of meters of waves, almost splashing to the top of the ice cave.

"Boom boom boom..." Every time it patted its tail, it caused the ice cave to tremble, showing a precarious posture.

Worried that the white whale would tear down his laboratory in agitation, Zorro hurriedly stopped its behavior: "Calm down! Nick, calm down, don't panic!"

On the way to bring the white whale to the laboratory, Zorro has exchanged names with it and learned some information about it.

The name of the white whale is Nick. It is a young male whale in his early [-]s. Because his mother disliked him for not finding a partner, he was kicked out of the whale group and told him not to go home until he found a partner.

In order to return to his own group of whales as soon as possible, Nick started a life of wandering around the world, looking for female whales every day, but the female whales were not found, and instead swam northward to the North Pole by mistake.

It originally wanted to return along the way, but on the way back, it found that a suspicious meat ball had grown in its stomach at some point, and it was getting bigger and bigger, and it was getting more and more painful.

The pain made Nick lose his way, and he bumped around and fell onto an iceberg. In this way, he was discovered by the penguins who were out looking for food, and hurriedly called Zorro for help.

Since we meet, it is fate.

Zoro will not give up on any patient, he patiently calmed the mood of the white whale, saying:
"It's okay, Nick, don't worry too much. It's not the first time I have encountered patients with tumors. I have cured them all, so your problem can be solved. I will definitely find a way to cure you!"

"Really—?" Nick was overjoyed, and looked at Zorro excitedly with eyes that were much bigger than the copper bell.

Seeing it calmed down a little, Zorro nodded and said, "Of course, I don't have to lie to you!"

"All we have to do now is create a treatment plan to get rid of that sarcoma in your belly before it gets bigger!"

Hearing Zorro's affirmative reply, Nick's eyes also sparked with hope, and he said firmly: "Then please, no matter what you want to do, I will fully cooperate—!"

"That's good!" Zoro nodded with a smile, and took out his notebook for recording potion formulas.

It wrote and drew on it and talked to Nick about the treatment plan.

"Usually, I treat patients with tumors in three steps."

"The first thing is to remove the sarcoma that has grown in the patient's body to prevent them from infecting normal tissues." Zorro first drew a huge circle on the paper, and then made a cross on it.

"Hmm—!" Nick listened intently to Zorro's narration, his eyes full of expectation.

After drawing a potion bottle on the paper, Zorro continued: "Then use the potion to suppress some tissues in the patient's body that are about to deteriorate into tumors, and disinfect them."

"This process usually takes one to two months. You have to drink medicine every day and do blood tests until the test results are normal for a week."

"Will that...would it taste bad? We also have a doctor in our community, but the medicine he makes is terrible. I'm most afraid of drinking medicine!" Nick asked with some concern.

"Uh..." Zorro's eyelids twitched, he didn't expect it to be worried about such a problem at this time.

"I will try my best to make it delicious!" Zoro could only promise in this way.

Hearing Zorro's promise, Nick let out a long and happy roar: "Thank you doctor! Oh woo~~!"

"Ahem..." Zorro coughed twice, and continued: "The last and most important part is the return visit."

"I will draw your blood for testing from time to time every other week, or a month, or two months."

"During this period of time, you should not leave the North Pole too far, so that I can contact you conveniently."

"Five years later, if your test results still show normal, it means that you have no problem and you have really recovered."

After writing the last word on the paper, Zorro turned to Nick who was listening attentively and asked, "Did you understand what I just said?"

"Understood—!" Nick wagged his tail excitedly, and said loudly, "Just do it! Get that damn thing out of my stomach!"

"I'm going to burn it to slag and throw it all into the sea!"

"I must regain my health, then go to the sea to find the female whale, and bring her home with me!"

Seeing Nick being so active, Zorro also heaved a sigh of relief, and said to it with a smile: "Well, let's do this, I will prepare the things needed for the operation as soon as possible."

"You should take a good rest these few days, maintain a regular life, eat on time, sleep on time, don't feel stressed, just wait for the day of surgery."

"Hmm~~!"

Nick shook his head happily, and lightly rubbed against Zorro twice, "Thank you, little penguin—!"

"Boom~~!" A muffled sound sounded.

Although Nick did just lightly touch Zorro with his head, but under the weight of hundreds of tons of the white whale, such "lightness" is unbearable for Zorro.

The moment Nick's head touched him, Zorro felt that he was hit head-on by a giant jumping fish. Not only was his brain buzzing, but even his breastplate bones were aching.

I can't bear it!Such a thank you can't stand it!

"Dong dong dong..." Zoro clutched his chest and took several steps back.

"Little Penguin, what's the matter with you?" Seeing that Zorro seemed to have a bad expression, Nick panicked and wanted to jump ashore to help.

"Don't! You just stay in the water!" Zorro quickly stretched out his fins to stop Nick, and retreated while talking: "I'll prepare the materials, you just stay in this bay, don't run too far somewhere!"

"Oh! Got it!" Nick let out a low cry in frustration, and dived into the water with a flick of his tail.

Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

"Wow!" The giant white shadow flashed under the water, and Nick disappeared in front of Zorro.

"Huh..." Seeing that Nick had left, Zorro held his chest and let out a long sigh of relief.

In fact... when I was discussing the treatment plan with this white whale just now, it was always a little nervous, and it was not as confident as it appeared on the outside.

Zorro had indeed encountered many patients with tumors before, but most of them were small animals such as seals, sea lions, and penguins. This was the first time he had encountered such a giant as a beluga whale.

How much anesthesia is needed to bring down such a big fish, how to cut the tumor on its body that is bigger than itself, how to suture the wound so that it will not collapse, how many ingredients are needed for the potion of follow-up treatment...etc, all of these Everything is a completely new field for Zorro.

Although the heart is very uncertain, it cannot be shown in front of the patient, otherwise the patient's emotions will be hurt, and the tumor may worsen.

"Hey..." Zoro shook his head, and said to himself, "Let's try it first, but it's just a little bigger, no problem!"

..........................................

In order to better treat Nick, Zorro made a lot of preparations, spending more than ten hours a day on this matter, and even contacted other medical colleagues in the North Pole, and came to an expert consultation with them.

A month later, the tumor resection operation was officially carried out.

Nearly [-] Arctic doctors worked together, and it took nearly a day to finally cut off the huge sarcoma entrenched in Nick's body.

Everything went well, the wound did not bleed profusely and the stitches were done perfectly.

"Boom!" Jumping off Nick's back, Zoro landed firmly on the ground.

On the right side of it is the tumor just removed.

This guy was even bigger than expected, the thickest part even reached more than ten meters in diameter, and the thinnest part was seven or eight meters in diameter.

The bloody, dark red lumps were spread out in a ball on the ground, covered with large and small lumps, and there were even strange tissues like teeth.

Perhaps because he hadn't realized the fact that he had been cut, the mass of sarcoma was still trembling, trembling, contracting like a heart.

Nick, who had just woken up, was frightened by the ferocious appearance of the sarcoma, and exclaimed: "Oh~~!"

It flapped its tail slowly, and asked Zoro who was standing by his side: "Is this really something cut from my stomach? It looks too scary, it looks like those Like aberrants!"

Mutants refer to those creatures that undergo physical mutation after taking excessive sequence potions.

This process is irreversible, and the creature will change from a normal form to a thoughtless lump of unknown shape in a very short period of time, and it can also infect other creatures.

Its final form does indeed look very similar to this mass of sarcoma.

As if agreeing with what Nick said, Zorro nodded and said, "I think so too! I always thought there was a strong sexual connection between the two!"

Leaning down and poking the piece of meat on the ground with his fins, Zorro continued: "There should be some kind of rule in the living body. After taking an overdose of potion, this rule will be broken."

"Bones, blood, skin, all kinds of things that were originally distinct will become less distinct, and suddenly lose their original order, developing into an uncontrollable chaotic state, and eventually become an indescribable strange lump of meat."

"Tumor is also based on the same principle. It is a sudden deformation of certain tissues due to certain reasons. It has no order and no restraint just like the aberrant. As long as there is enough energy to support it, it will continue to proliferate indefinitely and become An unimaginably huge mass of meat!"

"Endless, immortal!"

Seeing that Zorro seemed to get more and more excited as he talked, Nick blinked its big eyes twice in confusion, and said, "I don't understand..."

"I just want to know when I will be able to recover. After the sarcoma is removed, it shouldn't grow anymore, right?"

It is just a patient, not a doctor. It doesn't care about the relationship between distortion and tumor, but only cares about its own body.

Zorro: "..."

Well, he admitted that he was a little excited just now, and he shouldn't talk about these complicated things with patients.

After adjusting his emotions, Zorro walked up to Nick's head, looked into its eyes and assured, "As long as you take the medicine on time, you should be fine!"

"Hmm!" Nick smiled happily when he heard the answer he wanted to hear.

.........

Like the surgery, Nick's second phase of treatment went well.

After the tumor was removed, the wound on her stomach recovered quickly, and the stitches were removed in less than a week.

Every day, Zorro would be boiled a big pot of potion by it, and then urged it to drink it.

After more than a month of treatment, the remaining abnormal tissues in Nick's body were gradually removed, and Zorro had not detected tumor cells in his blood for a week.

This means that Nick's second phase of treatment has been completed and the drug can be stopped.

"Congratulations, Nick! You have recovered temporarily!" After the last blood test, Zorro excitedly announced the news to Nick.

Nick was also overjoyed when he received the news.

"Hahahaha, I don't need to drink medicine anymore, okay—!"

After a few times of excitement in the sea, Nick poked his head out of the water, stared at Zorro with his big clear and bright eyes, and asked:

"Mr. Zorro, can I leave here temporarily and go to a farther place? The North Pole is really too cold, I'm panicking!"

Although Nick is a white whale with rough skin and thick flesh, he is not a native arctic fish after all.

Staying in the icy sea water of the Arctic every day, Nick felt that his skin was going numb from the cold.

It misses the warm sea water, the warm sunshine, and its own group, and wants to go back and have a look.

Seeing that Nick was looking forward to leaving so much, Zorro nodded and agreed with a smile.

"Okay, you can go where you want now, but don't leave too far, remember to come back for a review in three months!"

"No problem—!" Nick agreed.

.........

Unfortunately, Nick did not return after three months.

Zorro had been waiting by the coast all day, but he didn't see that familiar figure.

In the next few days, it went to visit Starsail Fjord every day, but it still didn't see Nick.

There should be no surprises, right?
With such thoughts in mind, Zorro waited anxiously every day.

Finally, another three months passed, and Nick came back.

To Zoro's dismay, however, it was in a very bad condition.

The belly that had been flattened up again, and it bulged even higher than last time, and even a huge tumor grew on the top of its head, almost pressing its eyes.

As soon as he saw Zorro, Nick shouted hoarsely:

"Mr. Zorro, please help me—!"
