Lord Protector novel (Zeke Williams) novel Chapter 1548

The medical center was actually just specialized tents.

They headed inside one of the tents and saw that Ares was still in a comatose.

A few doctors were busy trying to rescue Ares, and one of them barked when he saw Sole Wolf and Zeke, “Get out. Who allowed you in here?”

The doctor was transferred here from elsewhere, so he did not know who Zeke and Sole Wolf were.

Even so, Sole Wolf was infuriated because the Great Marshal and the General North were not to be spoken to in such a manner.

However, Zeke stopped Sole Wolf from saying anything as he asked patiently, “Mister, we’re the patient’s family. May we ask how he is doing right now?”

The doctor’s expression softened when he heard that they were family, but he still had a cold gaze.

“A drug was introduced to the patient’s body for a long time, and now the drug has taken effect everywhere in his body. This kind of drug can numb the nerves, and right now, thirty percent of his nervous system has been damaged. We’re trying our best to cleanse his body of toxins, but it is likely that we will not succeed. Even if we had, the procedure would take a very long time. Please go outside and wait patiently. We’ll inform you if anything happens.”

Huh?

Zeke frowned.

I can’t wait for that long.

Zeke suggested, “Mister, I’m quite knowledgeable in the field of medicine, so maybe I can help you out.”

“Nonsense!” The doctor yelled angrily, “The patient’s life is more important than anything else, and you can’t just do whatever you want!”

Sole Wolf was infuriated once again as he took out his gun and pointed it at the doctor.

“If you say one more word, I’ll gun you down in an instant.”

However, the doctor seemed unfazed and unafraid. “I’ll need to take responsibility for the patient’s life even if you kill me.”

At that moment, the electrocardiogram started to beep urgently.

The nurse shrieked in horror, “Mister, we’re in trouble. The patient’s heart rate and blood pressure are increasing, and his life is in danger...”

The doctor’s face paled. “D*** it. We overestimated the patient’s health condition.”

He took Ares’ pulse and explained, “This kind of drug is somewhat corrosive to the blood vessels, and unfortunately, the patient’s blood vessels are weakened right now. If his blood pressure rises slightly, the blood vessels might collapse and not even God can save him then. Bloodletting. We can only do that now to save him.”

The nurse immediately passed him a scalpel, but Zeke stopped him.

“Stop it. Mister, this is way too risky.”

“It indeed is risky, but we have no other way.”

“Let me try.”

The doctor eyed Zeke suspiciously.

The fact that he knows that bloodletting is a risky procedure shows that he’s well-versed in medicine.

However, he’s way too young, so he’s definitely not proficient in medicine.

The risk of him killing the patient is higher than the risk of bloodletting.

The doctor rejected him once again, “No. This is my patient. If you kill him, the onus is on me.”

Zeke replied, “Don’t worry. There are surveillance cameras everywhere, so I’ll take full responsibility if something happens to him.”

As he said that, he took out his silver needles without an ounce of hesitation as he prepared to administer the Ammo Needle.

The old doctor was increasingly shocked now. “My gosh. Are you really gonna use TCM? TCM is good for ordinary colds or fevers, but it’s no better than witchcraft, when faced with a complicated medical case like this. It will only accelerate the patient’s death.”
