“If you can’t figure it out, come to me, I’ll wait for you here.”Harry Johnson smiled. “Come to you? Who do you think you are? Can’t you look at yourself in the mirror? You’re really drunk.”Harry became an attending physician at a young age, and he was a well-known genius. These achievements naturally made him become arrogant.With his arrogant character, how could he ask a “layman” for help?Harry turned around and walked away.Meanwhile, Thomas was saying something rather confusing, “There is still an hour left to treat the patient. If the patient doesn’t receive timely treatment, he will never be able to wake up again.”Harry snickered when he heard that.‘The patient can’t wake up anymore?’According to Harry’s estimation, Frog should have woken up long ago. Apart from being a little weak physically, this should not affect him much.After all, he was just wounded with a small cut and fainted. ‘What’s all the fuss about?’So he did not take Thomas’ words to heart at all.
After a while, Harry walked into the operating theater with a nurse who was ‘fully equipped’ and had a sturdy physique. Larry and Maya glanced at each other, and they were both a little confused.‘Since when did the hospital hire such a nurse with a sturdy physique?‘But this is not important, what is important is whether he can save Frog.’They walked into the operating theater and shut the door.Thomas walked to the hospital bed, checked Frog’s current physical status, and then took out a row of silver needles.Harry said silently, “Hey, are you using these toys to save a person’s life?”“Yes.”“What do you mean? Are these life-saving tools? Can you stop making fun of me?”Thomas said lightly, “If you don’t want the patient to die, just shut up for me.”Harry stared at Thomas.‘Okay, I’ll let you show off your skills.‘If you could cure the patient, everything would be fine. If you can't cure him, I’ll let you suffer!’The operating theater went quiet.Thomas used silver
‘Should I tell him the truth?’After some hesitations, Harry decided not to say anything and encouraged their misunderstanding.‘What would others think if I tell them the truth?‘A young genius doctor unexpectedly made a mistake in his medical diagnosis and nearly killed his patient. He was forced to seek help from an unknown ‘quack doctor’ to save the patient’s life.‘This kind of news could definitely make headlines!Once this was exposed, Larry’s career would be over. In the future, professional ranks, promotions, and salary increments would become irrelevant to him.‘Therefore, the truth must not be revealed!‘Anyway, Thomas did not want others to know that he saved Frog. So, I could just take on the credit by following the trend. What kind of harm would it do?’Harry smiled and said, “Hey, it is us doctor’s job to save the dying and heal the wounded, and there is no need to thank me.”“No, this is still required.”Frog’s eyes said sincerely, “Doctor Harry, you have save
As they arrived at the training camp, every team member came to greet Frog. Everyone felt that he was lucky to come back alive.Due to their good relationship with Frog, the team members’ attitude towards Thomas was not so good.In their opinion, Frog had become what he was now because of Thomas. So, when everyone saw Thomas, there was a wave of dissatisfaction in their gaze.They all deliberately forgot the incident where Frog had tried to run over people with a car.When Thomas came back, no one had any pleasant expressions to offer.“Look, that bastard still has a face to come back. He’s really shameless.”“He had harmed Frog like that. I really want to slap him a few times. If it wasn’t for the sake of Mr. Barlow, I would definitely kill him!”“Let’s go, and don’t stay too close to those kinds of people, He’s disgusting!”Thomas was isolated by everyone.No one wanted to talk to him anymore, even standing next to him would make others feel uncomfortable.When he saw this
Several people were flirting with one another, and suddenly, Frog’s expression changed abruptly.Almost for an instant, Frog’s face seemed to be burned by a soldering iron. His eyeballs were all red, and his two eyes were almost bulging out.‘Bang!’Frog fell over to the ground from the wheelchair. His hands and feet were twitching and he soon fell unconscious.There were also unfinished tonic supplements scattered beside him.“Frog!!!”This abrupt happening shocked Larry, and he immediately went to help Frog.Thomas frowned. Thomas frowned, ‘This is the consequence of not listening to your senior’s advice.’Frog had not listened to Thomas’ advice and insisted on taking tonic supplements. As a result, he ate too much. He could easily get a blockage in his arteries. Now after eating the tonic supplements, his blood became thicker, and it quickly caused more blockages.If he was not treated on time, he might lose his life.Thomas walked over and said, “Let me treat him. If he
After hesitating for a while, Harry walked out of the operating theater.Larry walked up anxiously and asked, “Doctor Harry, how is Frog now?”Harry lowered his head and did not know what to say.He cleared his throat and asked, “Well, where is Thomas now?”“Thomas? Doctor Harry, why are you asking for Thomas?”“You just have to tell me where Thomas is now.”“Ermm… Thomas was still at the training site.”“Got it. I know what to do.”Doctor Harry did not say anything, and he left the hospital directly wearing his white coat. He drove directly to the training site.In less than ten minutes, he arrived at the venue.“Thomas!”Doctor Harry ran over in a hurry and said to Thomas, “Thomas, Frog is dying. How can you sit here peacefully?”Thomas asked faintly, “If Frog is dying, shouldn’t you, the attending physician, take on the responsibility of treating him?”‘Instead of staying at the hospital, why are you coming here?”“Thomas!”Doctor Harry looked around and whispered in
‘Heh! Impossible!‘Frog, don’t blame me for being ruthless, even if you die, I won’t let Thomas save you. ‘I believe you don’t want Thomas to save you either, right?’ Larry’s heart was truly wicked. Friendship? It was all empty talk!He would rather sacrifice his friend instead of humble himself to ask for help from Thomas. Meanwhile, Thomas leaned against a chair in the training field and had a knee crossed over his leg as he looked up at the blue sky. It should be about time now. He heaved a long sigh. “Sigh, Larry Beckett, you’d rather sacrifice Frog instead of coming to me for help. “Should I say that you’re proud, or ruthless?” Thomas stood up and went to the car. Maya walked over and asked, “Thomas, I saw Dr. Johnson asking for you just now. What was it for?”Thomas sighed with a wan smile. “For a consultation.”“Dr. Johnson came to you for a consultation?”“It’s a long story. Get in.” Thomas brought Maya to the hospital. When they reached the hospital an
Larry’s head was stuck on the chair in front of the operating theater, but he finally removed it from the spot, and he was just in time to see the recovered Frog and Maya walk out. “Frog? You’re… alright?” Frog had originally been quite subservient to Larry, but right then, when he saw Larry, his eyes were filled with disgust, and he really wanted to slap him. Larry found himself squirming under the gaze. Frog said hoarsely, “Larry Beckett, I’m fine now. Does it displease you?”Larry was stunned before he forced out a smile and said, “How is that possible? We’re friends! I’m ecstatic that you recovered, so how can I not be happy?”“Friends? Hah!” Frog yelled, “I know the truth now, so why are you still pretending?” “Truth? What truth?” Larry looked at Maya and had a bad feeling in his heart. He said, “Frog, don’t believe in other people’s words and have it affect our friendship!” “Friendship, my foot!” Frog pointed at Larry. “You’d rather I die instead of having Thomas sa
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
