They could not simply do it.If the sequence was wrong, or if the wrong strength was used, an accident could happen, although that did not seem likely.Those doctors hid at the back, and nobody was willing to take the risk.After all, they had seen Thomas’ example. If they got involved, they really could not express their bitterness.William dared not simply do anything either.He was not afraid of taking the responsibility. He was just afraid that he would kill Vincent and Thomas because he took out the wrong needles. That would be extremely sinful.The needles had to be removed by the person who had inserted them.William suggested, “Mrs. Braun, can you release Thomas so that he can remove these needles? If it has no effect at that time, I’ll leave Thomas to you for punishment. I’ll also receive the punishment together with him without any complaint.”“Remember what you say!” Eve waved her hand. “Bring Thomas forward.”A while later, a muscular man was brought forth by two p
Everyone opened their eyes widely and stood up. They stared at the bedridden Vincent in disbelief. They could not believe that he had really come back to life.“It's impossible. This is impossible!”“A deceased person came back from the dead? This is not a medical miracle anymore. This is a miracle that is beyond human cognition!”“Is this medicine? This is clearly magic!”The old doctors were very experienced, but all of them were frightened at that moment.They were not ignorant, but this incident surpassed their cognition.A dead person had returned to the land of the living. Did such a ridiculous thing just happen?Actually, they had understood the situation wrongly. A dead person could not come back to life. Even if Thomas’ medical skills were outstanding, he could never do that.What Thomas did was let Vincent enter a state of apparent death before he recovered.Apparent death and real death were totally two different things, although both looked exactly the same.If Vi
Thomas calmly kept the needles away, and he waited with others for Vincent to regain his consciousness. This looked like it would happen anytime soon.At this time, a doctor who did not understand asked, “I still don’t understand this. How can a dead person come back to life? Dr. Mayo, can you enlighten me?”These people’s speaking tone also became polite.Just now, everyone looked so fierce and ruthless that they despised Thomas, but all of them now admired him.It was not strange. After all, Thomas created a miracle in medicine.Thomas was also not selfish. He just said, “The theory is very simple. Mr. Braun did not die, so coming back to life doesn’t exist.”“He did not die? It’s impossible. All of us examined him. He had already stopped breathing.”“Not breathing doesn’t mean death,” Thomas said. “Apparent death does exist in medicine. To stop Mr. Braun from breathing, I used the skills of apparent death on him. I made him look dead, but he has actually been alive. He was in
In front of the Hill family’s office building, banners were put up. A group of people blocked the entrance, and some people even held up loudspeakers while they kept cursing.They came because of Vincent.“Thomas Mayo, you killed our district chief. Get out and receive your punishment now!”“We should bring this wicked person to justice so that Mr. Braun can rest in peace.”“We swear that we will avenge Mr. Braun!”Some people were sincere, while many people came just to watch the show. Of course, some people had been hired to lead the public opinion and make a big fuss.After they discovered that Thomas was a member of the Hill family, they targeted the Hill family and swore that they would bring the Hill family down.In an SUV not far away, Silvester and Fred sat face to face, and each of them held a glass of red wine. They drank as they watched the show.Fred chuckled and said, “Young Master, how is it? Is this show, which I’ve arranged for you, interesting?”Silvester gave
Everyone looked over. They thought that Eve had arrived to help them, so happy smiles filled their faces.After Eve got out of the car, she did not move forward. Instead, she reached in to support another person in the car.This time, everyone was shocked.Who was in need of Mrs. Braun’s personal support?Silvester also opened his eyes wide and seriously looked over. He wondered which big guy was sitting in the car.Finally, the “big guy” got out of the car as everyone watched.Speaking of him, everyone on the site knew this big guy. They were familiar with him because he was Vincent Braun, the district chief who had made everyone hold up banners and cry out in sorrow for him!Mr. Vincent Braun was alive!Inside the SUV, Silvester’s red wine glass dropped to the floor with a thud, and his jaw nearly dropped too.Was this man, Vincent, who had been proven dead by countless people?What happened? Why was he still alive?Everyone’s faces were full of shock. They dared not belie
When Silvester heard that, he instantly could not bear it. He covered his head and felt irritated.This meant all his hard work from a while ago had gone to waste.He glared at Fred. “This is all your fault! You said Vincent is dead, but he did not die. He even lived very healthily.“What did I say? I said we mustn’t let Thomas treat Vincent. If he cured Vincent, that would help Thomas gain huge power, right?“You didn’t listen to me. You said Mr. Braun was severely sick and would die undoubtedly, and even God could not cure him.“So what happened now?“It turns out Thomas has outstanding skills, and he cured Vincent! Now, Vincent has already taken Thomas’ side. We have become more passive now.“Fred, look at what you’ve done. I really want to stab you to death!”Everything Silvester said actually made some sense.If it had not been for Fred’s plan, Silvester would not have let Thomas approach Vincent, and he would not have given Thomas the chance.What happened now? It looke
Subsequently, the media reported all real news according to Vincent’s request. This time, even Silvester could not reverse the situation.Sensational news kept popping up, and all the media outlets competed to report and explain Thomas’ situation clearly.This time, everyone changed from hating Thomas to thanking Thomas.Humans were emotional.When the keyboard warriors realized that they had wrongly criticized a good person, they felt extremely guilty.In such situations, nobody could hold themselves back.Everyone opened the comment section and published their opinions. Most of them started to apologize to Thomas with their greatest sincerity.They knew they were wrong and they should not have criticized Thomas before they clarified things.In an instant, apologies filled the headlines.In the Hill family, Emma sat at home as she read the news continuously. After she saw the apologies, she finally sighed in relief.Johnson also said, “Thomas is really great. His medical ski
Soon, Thomas arrived at the restaurant.Lotus Dining was a big top hotel in the Southland District, and it was a designated place for government officials to hold banquets. Ordinary rich men did not have the authority to eat there.People who went there had to be very noble.The two police officers were not qualified to go in, so they just sent Thomas to the door before they went back to the car.Thomas smoothed out his shirt before he walked into the restaurant.After he entered the restaurant, there was no receptionist. Only a waiter was standing in front of the counter while playing with his phone.People rarely went there to eat on usual days, so there were very few waiters.Even if there were waiters, most of them just played with their phones.Once your habit was developed, it was very hard to change it.This waiter usually played games when he was working. He clearly knew that Mr. Braun was holding a banquet there today, but he still made no efforts to change his habit.
No one knew how far down the title Emperor of Luck was inherited.They had finally caught Luck.Following that, Eric leaped into action and reeled in his haul as fast as he could. With that, all the remaining accomplices of Luck were caught in one fell swoop!The two million innocent citizens were saved, as all of them took the antidote.Once again, Thomas saved the day.In order to express their gratitude, the citizens decided to erect statues of Thomas in Celandine City and many other cities as well.In the House of Vistaria.Phoebe ran towards her father hurriedly. She then smiled at him and said, “What did I tell you, dad? Thomas will definitely turn things around, right? I won!”Declan was so agitated, that he started tearing up.Thomas was really too amazing. He was capable of turning things around, even in such a predicament.At the same time, the curse that had plagued the Mars family for over a thousand years was finally broken. From then onwards, Declan was finally
Luck was dumbfounded. Why was Thomas still alive and kicking?“No need to doubt your own eyes. I am indeed still alive.”The crowd parted, making way for a very familiar figure. It was Thomas, the very Thomas whom the public watched him die.As he walked, he said, “Our previous research has already reached ninety-nine percent completion. But no matter how hard we tried, the final one percent remained out of our grasp. At that time, I thought that perhaps the only way was to drink the Ancestral Water and experience the poison itself, which would allow me to have a breakthrough for the final one percent.“And that was what happened. I managed to do it.“After drinking the Ancestral Water, I finally understood what the one percent was and successfully created the antidote for Ancestral Water. Now that the antidote has been created, it will sever your connection with the Ancestral Water.“You will not be able to kill anyone anymore.“You have lost, Luck.”Lost?Luck's eyes were wi
It was obvious that Eric could not afford to take a gamble this time. But he had no choice. His only choice was to listen to whatever the other party said and prepare a helicopter in twelve hours’ time.That was not all. He was also supposed to request for his superiors to help Luck get out of the country.The thought of it made Eric furious.“Damn it!”He left in anger to deal with the rest of the matter.The sky of Celandine City was covered with clouds.The patriarch, Declan, was in his garden in the House of Vistaria. He stared at the withered flowers as he grieved.His entire life was spent supporting Mr. Cole in hopes that he would be able to create an antidote to Ancestral Water. But at the end of the day, Mr. Cole accomplished nothing.His two disciples — Capricious Holy Hand Elliot, and Thomas — were both dead.There was no one in the world who was capable of creating the antidote for Ancestral Water anymore.“Alas...” Declan sighed. It seemed that it was impossible
At that moment, the general public was suddenly dumbfounded, as if struck by lightning. Everyone was down in the dumps.Many of those with poor psychological strength directly collapsed on the ground.They believed Thomas' death could be exchanged for their own safety, but who knew, in the end, they got nothing, and Luck, as usual, used their lives as a bargaining chip to force the authorities to listen to His Majesty's words.No antidote to Ancestral Water would ever be created by chance.The lives of people were still in His Majesty's hands.Whenever luck wanted them to die, they would die without any ability to resist.However, this was not the most frightening part. What was even more frightening than this was that the only person who could create the antidote to Ancestral Water had been forced to die alive by them.It would be impossible to create the antidote to Ancestral Water without Thomas.Mr. Cole and Elliot had all died, Thomas was the last person who mastered the
Eric sighed deeply, "Thomas, even though things have reached this point, you still remain so kind.""I have nothing to say except to choose death because the research failed." Thomas let out a long breath. "Before I die, I want to talk to my family on the phone."Originally, Emma and the others came to Celandine City because they wanted to be reunited with Thomas.Who knew it had turned into a life and death situation?The world was like a chess game; everything was unpredictable.When Thomas was video calling with his family, Emma was already bathed in tears at the other end. She was crying and shouting at Thomas to not be impulsive, and saying perhaps there was still room for things to turn around.That was what she thought, but it was not the case.Every minute Thomas dragged on, more people perished as the result of Ancestral Water, and the crowd’s fear and rage grew.Thomas’ life no longer belonged to him."Honey, take care of the baby."I love you."Those were Thomas’
For such demanding research, half a day was really too short.Thomas had recruited the best doctors and researchers he could find to work on a detailed study of Ancestral Water.In the past, it was difficult to achieve breakthroughs in the research on Ancestral Water. That was because figuring out how to create an antidote for the Ancestral Water was challenging. On the other hand, it was also because obtaining the Ancestral Water was incredibly difficult. Because they only had a few samples, the results were underwhelming.However, it was different now. Because the entire city's water supply had been turned into Ancestral Water, they were able to collect the samples at their convenience. This made it much easier for Thomas and the others to get the materials.With Thomas in charge, hundreds of researchers were conducting a massive study in just half a day. Unfortunately, things did not go according to plan.Thomas still failed. “We almost got it.“We were so close to makin
How sinister. “All we want is nothing but—safety.“As long as we’re safe, we definitely won’t make it difficult for everyone. If we’re safe, no one will die.“Now then, I have a small request to make to ensure everyone’s safety.“I demand that Thomas drink Ancestral Water immediately! This person is a real hassle for His Majesty, and we must keep him under our control for our own protection. Please forgive us for the inconvenience.“We'll only give everyone half a day to consider this. The emperor will begin killing people if Thomas does not step forward and drink Ancestral Water by this afternoon.“Okay. I've said everything I wanted to say. Goodbye.” The TV screen went dark, and so did Eric's face.He kicked the trash can over and said fiercely, “What is this? You're the only person in the world who can create an antidote for Ancestral Water’s poison, Thomas!“Once you drink Ancestral Water, you’ll be controlled by them!“Won't you have to obey Luck's every command by the
After listening to Thomas’ description, Eric also displayed a look of shock and said two words, “As expected.”What did he mean by, as expected?Was it possible that Eric knew that Luck was behind it from the start?“Thomas, follow me.”Eric took Thomas into an empty ward and locked the door. The two sat in the corner of the ward.He whispered, “There is a piece of news that I haven’t announced to the public, that is, besides Celandine City, there are more than ten cities that have problems. Do you know which cities they are?”Thomas’ eyes lit up. He already knew what Eric wanted to say.At the previous meeting, Eric had clearly stated that more than ten cities across the country had been controlled by Luck. Now, there happened to have more than ten cities where residents had been poisoned.Was there such a coincidence?Thomas said, “The residents are poisoned by Ancestral Water. Over ten cities are all under the control of Luck’s forces, so it is almost a certainty that Luck
“I didn’t. I saw the news early in the morning and was shocked. I haven’t dared to drink a sip of water until now.” Pisces took a deep breath and said, “Is this a natural disaster or a man-made disaster? It’s really terrible.”No matter whether it was a natural disaster or a man-made disaster, it was no small matter.Soon, Thomas drove to the hospital.Eric had been waiting here for a long time. As soon as he saw Thomas coming, he quickly let him enter the ward.He saw a patient lying on the hospital bed with his eyes closed, and his body was trembling. Although it was very hot, he was as cold as if he had just been lifted out of the freezer.A doctor walked over and said, “Mr. Mayo, let me tell you the general overview of the current situation.”The virus was spread through water sources.After drinking water with the virus, the virus would lurk in the human body.However, lurking did not mean that it would cause an outbreak.At present, over one hundred thousand people had b
