Tower Defense Game: My Eternal Kingdom

"..."

Cheng Shen stood still and glanced at her, ignoring her words, "You smell like a cat smelling grass on your body, and the stain on your fingers is the juice residue of the charming flower, but as you are, you should not be able to touch these herbs."

"Are you analyzing the ingredients of the painkiller in private?"

he asked directly.

Yusefka's plain expression tensed instantly, her eyes behind the lens became sharper, she pretended to yawn, and said, "I don't know what you're talking about...but painkillers, I usually do Take, if you will give me more I will promise you anything..."

Her movements were jerky and she tore off the button of the collar, revealing a large white cloth.

The gesture would have been more alluring if she hadn't held a scalpel in her hidden hand behind her back.

"If I wanted to expose you the moment we met you would have been exposed."

Cheng Shen continued walking forward without looking back.

"What do you want me to do?" Yousefka inevitably misunderstood Cheng Shen's meaning.But she ignored that, given the difference in their identities, Cheng Shen didn't need to use such redundant means to do what Cheng Shen wanted her to do.

"I need a useful assistant."

Cheng Shen said, "You have a talent that others don't have, and you can help me. In exchange, I will use my status to help you get more research materials and teach you more knowledge."

Of course, the talent he was referring to was not only Yusefka's ability to analyze the ingredients of the pain-relieving medicine.

He also smelled several other herbal medicines on Yousefka. The medicinal properties of those herbs were contrary to the three main ingredients needed for the pain-relief medicine, which would allow Cheng Shen to understand what research she was doing.

Compared with Barufu's inner world, the benevolence has only a slight upper hand.

Yusefka's heart was almost filled with pity.

Her eyes were alert, she was not coaxed by Cheng Shen's few words, and when she was about to say something, Cheng Shen pushed open a door of the ward.

The pungent bloody smell mixed with rancid smell gushed out.

"Well……"

Lying on a crude hospital bed was a patient covered in gauze. He groaned unconsciously. An arm covered in pus and ulcers lay beside the bed, and an iron basin full of pus and blood was placed underneath.

This is the patient he took.

"The patient's name is Nader, and he works in an underground sewage cleaning plant. According to his own description, the onset of the attack was just a headache and fever at the beginning, and then black spots appeared on the arms, pain all over the body, until festering appeared."

Cheng Shen handed over the case to Yusefka.

He didn't know much about basic medicine, but he could tell that Nader was already in the terminal stage of his illness, and now he was only breathing with the effect of painkillers.

But don't say it's handed over to Dr. Crow for treatment.

Even in modern times, the top three hospitals with highly developed medical technology may not have more than [-]% chance of being saved.

"Why didn't he come sooner?"

Cheng Shen shook his head.

"No money."

Yousefka responded succinctly, she temporarily let go of her vigilance against Cheng Shen, looked at the case and said, "Sometimes people in the lower city think that maintaining a normal life is a luxury.

The consultation fees needed for medical treatment can empty out a family at a time. "

"Besides, it's also because I dare not..."

She turned her head to look at Cheng Shen and didn't say any more, but Cheng Shen understood what she meant.

Dr. Crow's best treatment method is surgery on people, including surgery for headaches, and surgery for colds. In short, if the basic medicine does not work after a round, then the next treatment method must be surgery.

Cut wherever it hurts.

But in an era where the medical level is so backward, not to mention the success rate of the operation, even if it can be successfully completed, if the wound caused by the operation is not cleaned properly, the subsequent infection is enough to kill a person.

Often, the patient just had a simple cold and fever, but finally lost his life under the treatment of Dr. Crow.

The death target officially set by the Holy Academy for Dr. Crow is around 50.00%.

But it is one tenth, one percent death rate.

It can be daunting.

In this case, if the illness is not too serious, people will basically survive.

So dragging and dragging will develop into a serious and persistent disease that is difficult to cure.

Nader's case,
It's just one of countless typical examples.

"He must have been bitten by some kind of poisonous rat. I have seen patients with this disease before... It only took three days from the onset of infection to death. When he died, his body was swollen and covered with black spots, as if he had been cursed." .”

Yusefka recalled.

"plague."

Cheng Shen blurted out.

"Has this disease been recorded in the holy courtyard?" Yousefka asked curiously.

Cheng Shen didn't answer, and said, "If he had the plague, then ordinary people in this clinic would be in danger. Plague can spread through the air, especially those who have been in contact with him are more likely to be infected."

"..."

Yusefka subconsciously took a step back when he heard this.

From an angle she couldn't see, Cheng Shen's eyes had a faint golden-red halo. There were indeed a large number of gray-black particles in the free energy molecules in the air, and the source of these floating particles was Nader.

But things are not as out of control as expected.

The smoke produced by the burning of certain herbs in the clinic filled the air, which greatly prevented the spread of gray particles.

This humble protective measure has effectively limited the spread of the plague virus!

"Plague is nothing more than an insignificant ailment in the magical world...but it is still a terrible threat to ordinary people."

Cheng Shen thought.

"Prepare for surgery. His illness can't be delayed any longer. In addition, you can tell Baruffo to check who has been in contact with Nader since he was hospitalized yesterday afternoon. These people are most likely to be infected."

he ordered.

"Let Baruffo do this... what about me?"

Yusefka asked.

"Are you here to help me, afraid?"

Cheng Shen turned around.

Yusefka shook his head firmly.

"That's good, prepare the equipment and medicines for the operation." Cheng Shen changed into the protective clothing issued by the clinic. The clothing was cut from thick oilcloth and coated with a layer of wax to cover the whole body tightly. airtight.

It's a little hard to breathe.

When Cheng Shen came to the hospital bed, Nader, who was wrapped in bandages, was unconscious and completely immersed in the effects of the pain-relieving medicine.

The bandages on his body were untied, revealing a shocking black spot festering, the disgusting sight could make a person unable to eat for three days.

"It's really troublesome to operate on him."

Cheng Shen thought secretly.

According to Dr. Crow's usual standard, at least half of his body tissue should be removed from his body, but he would basically die if he did that.This case is quite difficult among all the patients in the clinic.

"I'm afraid I didn't plan to let him go out alive after picking him up..."

He suddenly figured it out.

Such a patient is actually a free performance for the clinic, and the consultation fee will not be returned even if he dies.You only need to give him a symbolic treatment, and you can make a steady profit until he dies from a serious illness.

after all.

Every doctor crow has so many indicators of death...

"I'm glad you met me."

Cheng Shen said softly.

The door of the ward was pushed open again, and Yusefka, who also put on a protective suit, walked in with bottles and surgical instruments.

Cheng Shen took out a small black bottle from it. Liquid was sloshing in the bottle. The cork was already soaked, and a strong rusty smell could be smelled by sniffing.

boo.

Cheng Shen pulled open the cork and poured the liquid into Nader's mouth, poured about half of it, and then stopped feeling distressed.

This bottle of anesthetic was his one-week free quota, half of which was used by the first patient.

After that, it is inevitable to order additional from the Holy Court.

Fortunately, he received a bounty from the church, and if nothing else happens, there will be a lot of rewards every night...

Lose money and gain fame.

This is currently the only way for him to quickly improve his status.

"Start the operation."

Cheng Shen picked up a scalpel and glanced coldly at Nader, like a butcher considering where to start his knife.

……

[The operation is complete! 】

[Hint: Human Anatomy Proficiency 50! 】

[You have learned a new skill - suture!This skill has been automatically integrated into human anatomy! 】

【Human anatomy has been upgraded to basic medical care! 】

……

Accompanied by the system prompt, Cheng Shen cut off the thick sutures connected to the flesh and blood, and applied black and red ointment all over Nader's body. Then Yusefka assisted Cheng Shen and rewrapped him into a rice dumpling with a new bandage.

"Uh……"

The effect of the anesthetic seemed to have faded, and Nader, who was put back on the bed, let out a soft moan, which also dispelled Yusefka's worries.

"It's still alive..."

Her hands were still trembling when she recalled the tragic scene just now. It's not like Yusefka has never seen bloody scenes. In this clinic, the most common thing these cheaply hired assistants do is dispose of corpses.

She also temporarily assisted other doctors to perform operations, but there is no Dr. Crow like Cheng Shen...

brutal,

elegant.

These two words are hard to use to describe the same thing.

But Yusefka felt when he watched Cheng Shen perform the operation, as if he was carving a perfect work of art.

His indifferent and precise operation is like a murderous executioner. He has never dissected hundreds of corpses, and he will never be able to find the position of every organ and even every blood vessel as accurately as he does. !

The more you think about it.

The more Yousefka felt that the eyes behind that mask were so eerie and terrifying!
"It's almost enough to wait until tomorrow to do another bloodletting."

Cheng Shen washed his hands.

Healing Nader is not difficult.

The hard part is how to make others unable to see what method I have used.

Cheng Shen did not blindly rely on the magic of light, partly because of Yusefka's presence.

Furthermore.

The remaining energy fluctuations after the light magic is cast are too obvious.

Even if someone came to investigate every three to five days, they could find some clues.

If he wants to manage his identity as Dr. Crow well, he must master basic medical knowledge.Taking advantage of this opportunity to perform surgery, Cheng Shen also integrated what he had learned, and finally acquired basic medical skills.

Although it is the basis.

But it represents his medical level has officially entered the room.

"That's... all right?"

Yousefka did not forget Nader's inhuman appearance before, and the whole half of the pot of rotten flesh and pus and blood beside the second bed proved his previous state!
"Tonight is a hurdle, let's see if he can get through it."

Cheng Shen said casually.

Of course, this is just an excuse to perfunctory Yusefka's not-so-shocking appearance. With his soul power continuing to live, it is difficult for the patient to die.

"The diseased tissue has been removed, and the remaining infection is in the blood, so another blood drain is needed. If his willpower to survive can survive tonight, the follow-up treatment will not be a big problem."

He was vaccinated in advance.

even so.

The way Yusefka looked at him changed drastically.

"Clean it up, be careful not to touch the skin, and then disinfect it with fume."

Cheng Shen reminded.

The task has not been completed yet, and it seems that Nader will have to wait until he fully wakes up, but three days is definitely enough for this task.

He had no time to rest.

Back in the consultation room, a patient who was either wrapped in a bandage or frantic and uncontrollable had been crowded in a small room and waited for a long time.

"My lord! Please save me!"

"Are you really going to help us treat for free? You don't want to use us as an experiment..."

As soon as Cheng Shen appeared, these people immediately shouted.

"Quiet!"

Baluffo maintained order. He first handed a pamphlet to Cheng Shen, "My lord, I have investigated the assistants who have been in contact with that patient since yesterday, and some of them have already shown the infectious symptoms you mentioned!"

"Seven people have come into contact with him? So many assistants in the clinic?"

Cheng Shen glanced at it and said in surprise.

"Many people can't find a job to make a living, and the dean is kind and willing to take them in.

Another reason is that assistants have a high probability of being infected by patients and are replaced very frequently, especially temporary assistants who are not assigned to doctors..."

Baruffo's tone was very sad.

"Here, isolate them first, and if you don't cooperate, you can go to the dean and say, I suspect that a terrible disease is spreading in the clinic, and if it is not stopped in time, the impact will be serious.

Also find out the addresses of these people. "

Cheng Shen said.

"The spread of disease?!"

Barufu was so frightened that he quickly covered the veil on his face.

My heart was even colder, thinking to myself why didn't you tell me about the spread of the disease earlier!I have been in contact with those people!

in fact.

Cheng Shen was just habitually displaying his cautious nature.

The smoke of lavender in the clinic can basically block the spread of the plague virus through the air, and as long as you don't directly contact the source of the disease, you will not be bitten by fleas, poisonous insects and other creatures carrying the plague virus.

The risk of infection is still very low.

But outside of the clinic.

This problem is probably serious.

First of all, Nader's family and everyone he has come into contact with in the past few days have a very high possibility of infection. Once infected, it will develop into a secondary spreader, causing a wider spread and affecting more groups.

And those physician assistants must have returned home last night...

Besides, who knows, is Nader the first person to be infected?

Cheng Shen thought deeply.

The lower city area is home to more than [-]% of the population of the old city, and there is almost no supernatural power guarding it.Once this type of acute outbreak of plague spreads, it will cause a large number of casualties in a short period of time!

Cheng Shen wondered if this would affect him.

However, at this critical juncture, signs of outbreaks of highly fatal diseases suddenly appeared...

He couldn't help but think about it.
