Chapter 2222 Roland's Frustration
As he made up his mind to play dead, he instantly immunized himself against the taunts of his teammates from
Emsgate. At the stime, he thought to himself, Just keep on hugging yourselves. When it's tfor the Pills
Refining contest, I'll let you guys experience what it's like to get tortured by society.
Oblivious to his plans, the two teammates were standing in front of him at this moment, treating the patient's
kidney atrophy with undivided attention.
On the other hand, Fabien's team was relatively lucky, for they got a patient with hematological mucormycosis.
This was a type of mucormycosis caused by the invasion of pathogenic fungi in one's blood vessels, which thus
brought about pathological changes in other organs.
If it were other contestants, they would have to make a certain amount of effort to deal with this disease, but for
Fabien, treating the disease was absolutely a piece of cake. He used poison to treat the disease; in less than two
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthours, the patient was completely cured and would fully recover after srecuperation.
As for the unlucky Roland and his team, they cacross a patient who was difficult to get along with. This was
because their patient was suffering from intermittent explosive disorder, which made her totally
uncommunicative. Furthermore, she would pounce on people at the drop of a hat.
Seeing the fierce look in the woman's bloodshot eyes, Roland said with feigned generosity, "I'll let you two
diagnose her first. Don't say that | never gave you the opportunity."
Rose and Arianell rolled their eyes. "What a coward!" they muttered before coming to the patient's side.
The woman's neck and limbs were tied, but it was obvious from her grimace that she was difficult to deal with. At
the sight of strangers, she suddenly began struggling violently.
As a result, Rose and Arianell were frightened as soon as they stretched out their hands. And besides, with the
patient being so uncooperative, there was no way for them to examine her hands-on.
Just when they were at their wits' end, Roland was unable to stand the sight of this anymore. After shaking his
head, he slowly stepped forward. "If you go on like this, you won't be able to make a diagnosis even tomorrow,"
he said, striking the patient's neck with his hand in a flash before sticking out two fingers to feel her breath.
The patient passed out in front of them before she could respond.
Roland clicked his tongue. After shaking his head in speechlessness, he stepped aside, saying, "You two may go
ahead now." Inwardly, however, he ridiculed the two ladies. How dare they cand take part in the Holy
Doctor Competition with such skills in medicine?
Unbeknown to him, however, medicine was just a sideline for Rose and Arianell. All they had learned in their lives
was how to kill people with poison, and they rarely got to put their medical skills into practice. So, it was only
natural that they were somewhat at a loss when confronted with such a situation.
Still, seeing how smug Roland looked at this moment, Rose and Arianell were both annoyed. If it weren't for their
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmfear of getting punished by Fabien, they would've called it quits long ago. Suppressing their inner displeasure,
they began examining the patient carefully.
On the other hand, Matthew's team was arguably the team that lagged behind the most among all contestants.
When everyone else was almost finished, they had just settled on a treatment plan. The little monk would be in
charge of the bone-setting; Matthew would be in charge of doing acupuncture on the patient, while Lola would
be responsible for the prescription.
"The next treatment will cause severe pain, so please put up with it for a while," Matthew said while handing a
folded wet towel to the patient, signaling him to hold it in his mouth lest he bites off his tongue. This was largely
because the patient's symptoms involved his spinal nerves and blood vessels in the first place. It wasn't that
Matthew was unwilling to use anesthetics or turn off the patient's nociceptive nerves, but that doing so would
only worsen the patient's condition.
At hearing this, the old man looked very anxious, but his eyes were full of hope. Then, he asked in a trembling
voice, "Can my legs still be cured?" He was the breadwinner of the family. After he collapsed, not only did his
family lose a major source of income, but they even had to sell off everything they had because of his illness.
