Infinite Disasters: I Hoarded My Way to Godhood novel Chapter 21

Chapter 21: Chapter 21: Healing Transaction, Using the Universal Syringe

Seeing the injured Nicholas Jensen, Seraphina Sullivan’s first thought was to grab her things and leave.

’Be a good person in the Doomsday Game?’

’She wasn’t that naive.’

Just as she was about to turn and leave, a weak voice suddenly rang out:

"Save... save me... I can... give you weapons..."

Nicholas dazedly watched the person who had appeared before him, his voice weak as he spoke.

He had used up too much of his Ability yesterday, and he had no way of Healing himself.

Right then, Nicholas really wanted to slap himself. ’It’s true what they say—get too arrogant, and reality will slap you with a harsh lesson.’

Seraphina stopped in her tracks.

"Provide weapons?" She remembered last night’s insane spectacle of explosions, and that F1 race car he had materialized.

’This guy’s Talent really does make him a mobile armory...’

Two voices began a fierce debate in her mind:

’Saving him is too dangerous! Who knows if he’ll turn on me once he recovers?’

’But he can provide heavy firepower! With weapons, even if I can’t use them in this instance, it’ll give me a better chance of survival in the next one...’

’He’s this badly injured right now, anyway. He won’t be a threat for a while...’ Seraphina grit her teeth.

In the end, she decided to save Nicholas Jensen.

She grabbed him by the collar and struggled to drag the man—who had passed out again after speaking—into a relatively intact nearby building.

"I’m exhausted..." Seraphina panted, dropping him on the ground and wiping the sweat from her forehead.

She scanned her surroundings, and after confirming it was temporarily safe, she immediately took out the [Universal Syringe] from her Space.

She had barely used this item since she’d gotten it.

After all, she rarely got injured herself.

But now, it finally had its use.

’First, stop the bleeding!’ Seraphina unhesitatingly activated the syringe’s [Quick Hemostasis] function.

The needle accurately pierced the area around Nicholas’s wound.

The moment the medicine was injected, the wound that had been gushing blood quickly coagulated, and the bleeding stopped.

’Pain relief next.’ She adjusted the syringe’s mode, switching to [Pain Paralysis], and injected it into his major wounds one by one, on his thigh, arm, and elsewhere.

Nicholas’s tightly furrowed brow relaxed slightly, but he remained unconscious.

Seraphina stared at the gash on his thigh, so deep the bone was visible, and her own brow furrowed. ’If this wound isn’t stitched up, even with the bleeding stopped, an infection could still kill him.’

She took a deep breath. A Silver Needle materialized in her right hand, an Energy Silk Thread coiling around her fingertips.

"I never thought a Tailor’s Skills could double for a doctor’s..." She gave a self-deprecating laugh, then unhesitatingly plunged the Silver Needle into Nicholas’s flesh and began to sew!

SHHIIINK— The sound of the needle and thread piercing flesh was enough to set one’s teeth on edge, but Seraphina’s hand was steady as a rock.

The Silver Needle, carrying the Energy Silk Thread, darted rapidly through the wound, pulling the torn flesh together and stitching it shut, bit by bit, just as if she were sewing fabric.

"[Quick Sewing] is even more versatile than I thought. I can’t believe I found a new use for it," she murmured to herself, her hands never slowing.

"What are you doing here so early?! Go on, get back!" The old woman’s rebuke vibrated painfully in his eardrums. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺
