Doctor Player Chapter 178
‘We, the Cat Humans, will not disregard goodwill. From now on, I will become a true friend and help that human.’
“Thank you, Human High! Your kindness will never be forgotten!”
Raymond made a bewildered face at the reaction of the Myoin tribe.
It was a win-win deal, but I was so grateful.
Then an unexpected message popped up.
[Your sincerity moved the hearts of the Beast Tribe!]
[Achievement: ‘True Alliance with the Beast Tribe’!]
[Acquired 50 skill points!]
This is the message I’ve always seen.
However, one additional message came to mind.
[As a ‘Healer Lord’, we made an agreement for the people and patients!]
[Obtain a bonus skill as a privilege!]
[Obtain the skill ‘Negotiation Skill’!]
[Negotiation Skill]
Classification: Healer Lord skill
grade : Rare
Mastery: D
– Demonstrates excellent negotiating power when negotiating ‘territory units’ for patients and people!
– As your skill level increases, you become better at negotiating larger units!
‘Oh oh. Good?’
Raymond immediately recognized the true value of this skill.
‘It’s a skill that prevents me from becoming a Hogu.’
If you become a feudal lord, there will be many negotiations and deals.
He wasn’t a formidable hukou, but he lacked experience as a feudal lord. It was a skill that would prevent mistakes that could be made due to immaturity.
Anyway, that’s the next day.
There are more important things to do now.
“Is that the end? Oh no, is it over? Are there any other requirements?”
“there is.”
Raymond brought out the most important condition.
“The culprit who cheated on the magic stone mine. Please share information about him with us.”
“…!”
Raymond said with heavy eyes.
“He is also our enemy, so we will make sure to catch him.”
Yes, eradicating the disease was not the end.
The culprit who caused this terrible situation.
The culprit had to be found.
* * *
Arriving at the Myoin Village, Raymond drool.
It was expected, but it was in a terrible state.
‘Close to half of the Myoin tribe have died.’
Originally, there were only about 200 Myoin living in the Kennel Mountains.
100 of them have already died.
It seemed that the village was located near the magic stone mine, which is believed to have originated, and was hit by a direct hit.
‘The survivors are also in serious condition.’
Of the 100 or so survivors, only about 70 survived. Thirty people were addicted to disruptive substances and were wandering between life and death.
Raymond and the others immediately went into treatment.
It was fortunate that I had brought thyroid medication in advance in case of an emergency.
“Administer the Elmude thyroid medicine!”
“Your lord!”
“May Mary! Everyone, grab the blood vessels and hold the vitals!”
“Okay Master!”
May Mary!
They were twin sisters in their early twenties who took the place of Hanson Christine Linden.
‘It’s been a while since they’ve been here. I can leave the basics to you.’
If Hanson Christine Linden was a first-generation disciple, these May Marys were the second-generation disciple.
The disciples who came in right before the war with the Drowton Kingdom.
Originally quiet and without a special side, they lived without a presence, but the two sisters had their strengths.
Just like a bear, honest sincerity.
I studied hard as Raymond told me to, and as a result, I achieved remarkable growth without anyone noticing.
Hanson Christine Linden is still lacking, but her skills are clearly superior to other new healers.
Enough to be trusted to a certain extent!
Elmude also helped to treat the patients based on the basic rescue techniques he learned over his shoulder, and thanks to their efforts, a significant number of Myo-in-jok were able to recover.
“Thank you.”
Sonia, an aristocratic woman of the Myoin tribe, bowed her head with a proud face.
They tried to kill Raymond, but it was a favor they could not repay, and there was no way to express their gratitude.
‘We, the Myoin tribe, do not forget grace. From now on, I will serve Raymond as the family’s benefactor.’
While things were going smoothly, there was one problem.
That is, the descendant of the chieftain, the most important figure of the Myoin tribe, was not recovering.
He was given medicine, but it was getting worse.
‘At this rate, I’ll die.’
Raymond thought with a heavy face.
Maybe 10 years old now? A small cat-human boy with an androgynous appearance lost consciousness and was breathing shallowly.
This boy was a descendant of the Myoin tribe chieftain.
“My family’s benefactor, is there any way to save this person?”
Sonia asked with a desperate face.
Raymond answered heavily.
“I will do my best.”
Although he answered that way, Raymond intuited from his previous experiences.
‘At this rate, this child will not survive.’
Of course, he hasn’t saved all patients so far.
I have lost many patients due to various limitations.
Even in this situation, there were no lost patients. Even if the treatment was administered, not all patients recovered.
As the Eastern Continent says, ‘life is sacrificed’, there were times when even the best treatment could not be helped, and I learned from those experiences.
Now this child was dying.
“iced coffee! What do you mean by this? For the great son of the clan to die like this!”
“Heaven!”
The Myoin people wailed.
Sonia earnestly asked.
“Please, benefactor. This boy, Mien, is the only remaining descendant after the death of the previous chieftain. I will pay any price, please save Mian.”
Raymond nodded heavily.
‘If this child dies, I will be troubled too. You will lose clues to the culprit.’
It was this child who witnessed the criminal who said he had emerald eyes.
I happened to witness it alone late at night, so when this child dies, clues to the culprit will be lost forever.
‘Leaving that aside, he’s only about 10 years old now. I have to live.’
Raymond looked after the child.
A small, weak child was dying.
I had to let go of all other reasons and live.
‘But by what means? If the cure is useless, there is no way.’
The treatment he used was iodine and herbal extracts that suppressed thyroid function.
In the case of this child, the thyroid function is not suppressed despite the administration of the drug.
In this case, medically there was no other way.
‘no. Is there really no lets think. There might be another way.’
I thought hard about it, but it didn’t come to mind.
‘There is no way to suppress hormones unless you take the thyroid off… ….’
That was the moment I thought about it.
Raymond stopped abruptly.
‘for a moment. Take off the thyroid?’
A method flashed into his mind.
‘If the function of the thyroid gland is not suppressed, I can just cut it off and get rid of it!’
Then, whether it was a thyroid storm or whatever, it was perfectly resolved.
However, he soon shook his head in disappointment.
‘no. way impossible He will die during the operation.’
There was reason to think so.
‘The thyroid gland is a sensitive organ, so the moment it is damaged by surgery, the hormones contained within it flow explosively. His condition will worsen and he will die.’
In an instant, the thyroid hormone concentration soars explosively. Like when you get a heel.
There was a high chance that he would not survive and die.
‘But even if I stay still like this, I’ll die.’
Raymond clenched his fists.
‘You have to choose. Should I take the risk and try the operation, or should I stay as it is.’
It was a question that could not be answered.
Raymond talked to his guardian, Sonia.
“At this rate, are you saying Mien-sama will die?”
“Yes, there is one way to try, but that too is risky. It is very likely that you will die during treatment.”
Raymond explained the current situation in an easy-to-understand manner.
Sonia tilted her head to see if it was difficult to understand, then asked again.
“Surgery means that if you do treatment, your condition will deteriorate momentarily and you won’t be able to endure it.”
“Yes, that’s right.”
But she gave an unexpected answer.
“Then please try, benefactor. Perhaps Mien will endure.”
“…!”
When she opened her surprised eyes, Sonia looked at the child with firm eyes.
“Mien-nim was born with the thickest blood among the descendants of the great A-myo. As such, I have much stronger stamina than the benefactor is worried about, so I will be able to withstand a brief deterioration.”
“….”
Raymond couldn’t easily nod his head.
No matter how thick the blood of the true blood was, can he endure in such a state?
‘But anyway, there’s no other way. I have to take the risk.’
After thinking so, I opened my mouth.
“All right. We will do our best.”
He promised again.
“I will definitely save you.”
Sonia bowed her head deeply as if she was grateful.
“Please! If you spare Mien, I will serve you as our clan’s benefactor forever!”
So the operation began.
* * *
Assisted by Sister May Mary.
Mary, the first assist on May’s field, decided to assist outside the surgical field.
‘I’m sure you’ll do well?’
Raymond glanced at them both.
This wasn’t the first time the two of them worked together.
Christine and Hanson helped me with difficult surgeries, but I often received assistance from other students for simple surgeries, and my twin sisters assisted me several times.
‘The problem is that I don’t have much experience assisting in such a difficult operation.’
The good thing though was that the twins didn’t seem too frozen.
Silently, like a bear, he was ready to assist Raymond.
‘…Come to think of it, the nickname among the disciples was Bear.’
Of course, it wasn’t that he looked like a bear.
Contrary to his small physique, he was nicknamed silently honest and sincere.
Seeing the twins’ dependable appearances made Raymond’s heart a little more stable.
“Open.”
Jjiik.
The scalpel sliced through the skin above the neck where the thyroid gland is located.
‘We have to proceed as delicately and carefully as possible.’
Raymond judged that the success or failure of this surgery depended on ‘delicacy’.
‘Never give a big blow to the thyroid tissue. Hormones are going to explode and it’s going to take a turn for the worse.’
Originally, thyroid surgery is an operation that requires delicacy.
This is because there were many parts that could be damaged, such as the recurrent laryngeal nerve and the parathyroid gland.
In addition, if hemostasis is not properly controlled, hematomas may form after surgery, causing compression of the lower airway, resulting in a super-emergency situation.
But now, I have to pay attention to all of that and do surgery that doesn’t damage the thyroid gland as much as possible.
