Chapter 338: A Foot-Long, Demon-Hunting Fish
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The medical facility was just a stone's throw away. It catered to any medical operation on any type of life form except Lil Pea. She was too tiny. There was no pocket-sized chamber for her. So, they had to use whatever they had at hand and improvise.
Hao Ren rushed his fish-daughter to the medical facility as the hiccup flung Lil Pea away each time. The four ascetics followed, but they were clueless about what Hao Ren and the rest were doing. However, they could see that the little girl, who looked like a foot-long fish was affected by the Sacred Relic. Hence, they wanted to find out more. The medical facility was not a restricted zone and they were not prevented from entering.
Before the physical examination started, they first figured out the pattern of her involuntary teleportation. Firstly, it had something to do with the hiccups, as a hiccup would cause an involuntary teleportation; secondly, the direction and distance of each involuntary teleportation was dependent on her line of sight, but how far she would go was still unknown; lastly and most importantly, Lil Pea could not penetrate solid surfaces. If something was in her way, she would hit right into it with a bam. Any obstables could stop her, such as walls and Y'zaks' head. But in this case, it could be a blessing in disguise; the fear of every first-timer was to get stuck in something during teleportation. Every year in The Plane of Dreams, there were dozens of deaths, because novice sorcerers would get themselves stuck in various objects. But, there was no such fear for Lil Pea; she derived her ability from the Sacred Relic of Origins and it must have given her a "safety lock" when it blessed her with the ability.
The MDT switched one of the medical pods on and Hao Ren carefully placed Lil Pea inside. She had no idea what was happening. She looked around curiously, but also nervously. She cried quietly and flapped her tail. She appeared reluctant when Hao Ren set her down. He forted her, "Don't worry, it's just a photo shoot. You can lie down here, take a nap if you want. Daddy is by your side..."
Lil Pea could already understand human language, so she quited down, staring at the shiny crystal panel in amazement. She moved around the pod, exploring. Nangong Wuyue could not help muttering, "Don't you think the medical pod is a little too big for her?"
Just barely a foot long, the little mermaid could run freely inside the medical pod. Relatively speaking, it was as big as a hall to a human. The MDT started to fiddle with the control panels and said, "No worries, it will still work like a charm even if you throw a mosquito in there."
The medical pod slowly closed. Hao Ren was worried that Lil Pea would be flung out of the pod when she hiccupped. But before he knew it, Lil Pea had fallen into deep sleep. Barely a few seconds later, the scan returned the results on the medical pod's display unit. The MDT used Lil Pea's existing medical records and pared them to the results. It then made an extrapolation, simulating what was going to happen in her body if her condition persisted. Except the MDT, eveyone at the scene knew nuts about medical stuff. They could only wait.
Nangong Wuyue looked at Lil Pea's MRI scan. The little mermaid was sleeping soundly in the "casket
