The fatter, the more skillful in dicine, because only by developing active fat to an advanced level could fat also be used as effective body mass, which allowed for insane weight gain without affecting one’s own strength output.
The apothecary, Mr. Xue, only dared to call himself a cook, not daring to claim he was a doctor.
"So many people are in line..."
The crowd was barely breathing, and after a long wait, instead of getting treatnt, they heard wolf howls from the outside.
ii stood up, "The wolves have found us."
Cassandra imdiately joined her to et the wolves, and upon going out, they saw seventy wolves wandering outside the camp, each one of them injured.
"Is this all that’s left..." ii was deeply saddened, for Gao Xin had handed over more than two hundred wolves to her care, and now only seventy remained.
"There’s soone!" Cassandra saw one of the wolves, carrying a gaunt man.
ii went over and saw, "It’s Oiran brother!"
That was indeed Luo Yan, his nickna had successfully transitioned from Techie Bro to Oiran Bro.
Seeing Luo Yan, ii was ecstatic; the rescue mission had two major goals, Luo Yan and Dongfang Yi, and both were successfully brought out of Yamaguchi Village.
Now, all that was left was to et Gao Xin.
"But he’s gravely injured, his bones have even lted, it’s unbelievable. Was this from overdriving on fus, almost devouring himself?" Cassandra was shocked.
Organ overdrive was when various organs in the body operated beyond their limits, consuming all sorts of substances.
Usually, a special type of macrophage would self-devour, starting from fat then to muscle, finally turning itself into a mummified corpse, running out of fuel, and unable to engage in overdrive ever again.
But there was a type of person, extrely unique, who had trendous adaptability and could continue to overdrive on the brink of death, in a state of extre depletion.
Like burning himself up, with bones lting, organs collapsing, and finally fighting until his whole body dissolved, overdriving to death!
"Quick, get him inside."
The two won left the wolf pack outside the camp because they couldn’t afford the managent fee.
They carried Luo Yan on their shoulders to Dr. Mondi’s place, but the line there was still endless and hopelessly long.
Seeing Luo Yan, everyone was pleasantly surprised, but they were all in terrible shape, many close to death.
Taylor gasped, "Leader, Jiang Yuan has stopped breathing."
Jiang Yuan was just a Lesser Wolf, and if she suffocated for twenty minutes, she would still die.
Now with Luo Yan here, apart from having another severely injured patient, nothing had changed.
Cassandra, desperately pulling at the gambler Ryan, pleaded, "Can you make an exception and treat my friend first? So are really on their last breath."
Su Lei was running out of steam but had no fatal injuries; eating so food and resting would help him recover his strength.
But Li Shande, Sun Chuan, Liu Xu, Jiang Yuan, and Luo Yan were all severely injured, with damaged internal organs, which over ti was fatal for Tiger Levels too.
The gambler Ryan pondered, "Dr. Mondi is really overwheld, there are still hundreds of people in line."
Cassandra took out her alloy shield and said, "I’ll take a chance..."
Ryan smiled, and waving his hand, said, "We really can’t do more queue-jumping, I’ve already gained quite a bit today from people betting with , I’ve let a lot of people cut in line, Mondi is on edge."
"Ryan, please..." Cassandra pleaded.
Ryan pondered, "How about, I take you to see One-Ear?"
Cassandra’s expression changed slightly, "One-Ear..."
She looked back at the people barely clinging to life, "Fine, take to see One-Ear."
Taylor was shocked, "Leader, do we still need to go this far?"
Su Lei asked curiously, "What’s up, is there another doctor? Is this person hard to talk to?"
Taylor didn’t answer but looked at the leader.
Cassandra locked eyes with her, saying, "Taylor..."
"I will take the injured to find One-Ear, you and Su Lei are just weak, take Dongfang Yi and those whose injuries are not too severe, and go eat sothing."
"Su Lei, you should still have so points left from the last equipnt purchase in the black market, right?"
Su Lei nodded, "Yeah, I still have eighty points, why? Treatnt doesn’t need money?"
Cassandra shook her head, "He does not want money."
Taylor then said, "... that amount of money won’t be enough."
Su Lei was puzzled while the gambler Ryan smirked, quickly leading them to a hot springs inn.
Cassandra went in with Luo Yan, Jiang Yuan, and the other barely alive companions.
Su Lei joined Taylor in a small tavern opposite, ordering so plain food mixed with low-grade radium beast at.
The place was also bustling with people, so they squatted at the entrance to eat.
After eating for a while, Su Lei regained so strength, noticed Taylor’s red eyes, unable to swallow a bite, and sensed sothing was off.
Suddenly grabbing Taylor, he asked, "This is not a hospital, what place is this?"
Taylor kept his head low, "That’s a hot springs inn, didn’t you see?"
Su Lei persisted, "I an, who is this One-Ear? Why co here for treatnt?"
Taylor coldly said, "One-Ear is a True Tiger, one of the local bosses of the Hunter Camp. Besides running an inn, he maintains a freelance hiring agency."
"Though he’s not a professional doctor, he also specializes in active fat."
High-Level also tend to have so self-healing techniques, treating a few Tiger-Level juveniles isn’t difficult for him.
Dongfang Yi stuffed his protruding intestines back in, squinted his eyes, "He doesn’t sound like a decent person, asking such a person for help, and for free, what does he want?"
Taylor tearfully squatted against the wall, "What else could it be? Wouldn’t it just be selling their bodies?"
"What did you say?" Su Lei, eyes wide, grabbed Taylor.
Taylor, tilting back his neck, said helplessly, "What else could we do? So many people are dying, in less than ten minutes we’ll have dead bodies, what do you expect the leader to do?"
