227: Chapter 71 ‘Expert’ Consultation 227: Chapter 71 ‘Expert’ Consultation Half an hour later—
Xiao Jie stood outside the ergency room’s door, sowhat helplessly looking at the ‘Quiet’ sign across from the seating in the hallway.
The way things had developed was indeed beyond what he had expected; he had only wanted to ask Chen Tianwen about Pantheon’s affairs, but in the blink of an eye, so many things had happened.
Chen Tianwen was being resuscitated, several soldiers in black were still on guard around, but Captain Lin ca over and sat down next to him.
“How’s the ga treating you, Mr.
Xiao?” Captain Lin asked, making small talk.
Xiao Jie, however, replied seriously, “I have to say, unexpectedly entertaining.”
“That’s good to hear.
Speaking of which, I’m glad you’re still alive.
Most of the players I know don’t last a month.”
“Haha, I’m not an ordinary player.
Forget a month, I won’t die even in ten months or a hundred.
Speaking of which, haven’t you ever thought about diving into the ga yourself?
With your position, getting an activation code should be easy.
Let tell you, the abilities you get in the ga are nothing short of miraculous.”
But Captain Lin seed unimpressed, “Heh, I have witnessed the deaths of so many players.
Do you think I’d be that foolish?”
Xiao Jie laughed at himself.
It seed people’s views on things always differed.
In Captain Lin’s eyes, the ga was full of dangers, while to him, it was filled with opportunities.
“Besides, any abilities you gain in the ga, if I need them, I can requisition them at any ti, so why should I risk it?”
Xiao Jie was at a loss for words; does he have to show off his superiority like that?
Yet he chuckled and said, “That might be true, but it seems not all players are willing to play ball with you.
I guess whoever attacked Chen Tianwen isn’t under your watch, right?”
That left Captain Lin speechless, with no room to refute.
“Hmph, whoever it is that did this, we will get to the bottom of it.
The Ga Administration Bureau will not tolerate Old Earth players using supernatural abilities to commit cris in the real world and getting off scot-free.
That’s a line we cannot allow to be crossed.”
As the two were talking, the ergency room’s door finally opened, and a doctor ca out with a peculiar expression.
“Doctor, how is he?”
“The patient’s vital signs are very strange.
Currently, they are at the very minimum to sustain human life activity, sowhat resembling the state of an animal during hibernation, which is quite illogical since human physiology doesn’t have the capacity for hibernation.
The patient has no obvious external or internal injuries, all his physiological functions are intact, but they are gradually failing.
At the current rate, they will completely stop working in at the most twelve hours.
We have never encountered such a situation before.
At present, our only option is monitoring as there are no signs of the patient regaining consciousness—monitoring is all we can do.”
“Is there no way to wake him up?
I need to ask him so questions.”
“No, attempting that could potentially be life-threatening, and it might not even succeed.
I suggest consulting with doctors from the provincial hospital or higher-level dical experts since the dical resources here in the city are quite limited.”
Captain Lin shook his head, “It’s not doctors we need, but professionals.
Xiao Wang, have you found the person?”
The one called Xiao Wang was previously the soldier in black sitting next to Xiao Jie, who was now out of uniform and appeared to be a pretty young guy, looking like a recent college graduate, but very efficient in his work.
“Soone has already been sent to pick them up.
They should arrive at any mont.”
Xiao Jie grew curious—who were these professionals?
The answer ca swiftly, accompanied by disordered footsteps.
A few n in Black Windbreakers escorted a man and a woman to the outside of the ergency room.
Xiao Jie was speechless when he saw the two.
“An Ran?
How co you’re here, and—Master Niu?”
The man beside her was a vigorous uncle in his fifties or sixties, dressed in a white lay Buddhist garb, his hair neatly combed and shining, exuding a ‘masterly’ air.
Together with An Ran’s appearance, his identity was quite evident.
True to na, the uncle laughed heartily, “Haha, what master?
Just call Uncle Niu.
You must be Sui Feng, right?
A truly impressive young man.”
Xiao Jie thought to himself in silence—these were the so-called professionals?
A Qi Gong Master and a Demon Master…
Well, fair enough, after all, Jiangbei City was just a small place, and there were only so many players, these two were at least higher-end talents.
At least more useful than those with purely physical abilities.
Captain Lin was exceptionally serious, “You two are clear on the situation, I hope?
Things are a bit dangerous now.
Chen Tianwen’s vitals are stable but deteriorating.
The doctors say it’s going to get risky if this continues.
I have contacted an ‘Expert’ from the province, but due to the distance and their significant position, coordination will be needed, and it’ll take so ti for them to get here.
I hope you can do your best to maintain the patient’s vital signs during this period, and if you can revive him, that would be even better.”
Master Niu patted his chest confidently, “Don’t worry, Captain Lin.
We are players from the sa city, we naturally help each other.
Let give it a try, my Qi Healing Skill has so effects on clearing ridians and dissolving internal injuries.”
“Then I’m counting on you.”
Master Niu shook out his clothes confidently and strode into the room.
Xiao Jie and An Ran exchanged glances before following.
While the doctor was treating him, he didn’t dare get too close, scared of interfering with the treatnt, but with Master Niu handling it, he didn’t have so many concerns.
