Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1263
“Hah! What do you even mean by that? Fine then. If you successfully cure the illness, then I’ll do anything you order me to!” scoffed Walbridge.

From how casually he had made that decision, it was evident that he thought that it was going to be impossible for Gerald to save all those babies who were already near death.

Hearing that, Gerald simply nodded before heading off to the isolation room together with Jace and the dean.

Only three people were allowed to enter this time, and Gerald had a change of clothes before setting foot into the isolation room with the duo from before.

By then, all the babies had already stopped crying, and the room was eerily silent. From a glance, Gerald could see that not only were their complexions dark, but their bodies all looked swollen. Even the babies’ lips appeared cracked.

Seeing those symptoms and how close those babies were to death, Gerald confirmed that it truly was the effects of the Soul Eater technique! From what he could guess from the damage done, the babies must have only experienced a third of the Soul Eater technique’s power.

His deduction explained why their bodies were all looking so swollen. It was due to all the water in their bodies being sapped right out. With barely any means to cool their internal organs down, high fevers were simply inevitable!

“…How utterly cruel…!” growled Gerald under his breath.

If Gerald truly wished to heal them, he knew that acupuncture alone wasn’t going to be sufficient. In order to ensure that there was going to be a smooth flow of oxyblood pellets within them in the future, Gerald had no choice but to use the Soul Eater technique to make up for their lost oxyblood.

However, he was also aware that the second he did that, his identity would surely be exposed since he hadn’t found the Zircobsite yet. Once that happened, Queena would definitely come running over to hunt him down. Should he get caught, he knew he wouldn’t even come close to rivaling her strength.

Gritting his teeth, Gerald reminded himself that even if that was going to be the case, it was still more important to save these lives. Since Gerald had already drained the oxyblood of several adults before this, he knew that he probably had enough to save all of them. As for revealing his location to Queena… He could still use the blood in the jade talisman to deal with that for at least another night.

Since Queena was at her most fragile now, she shouldn’t be as scary as she previously had been! With that in mind, Gerald immediately began taking action.

Standing before the baby closest to him, Gerald took a single silver needle and began rapidly—but lightly—pricking on multiple spots on the baby’s chest. The spots were by no means random, and all eighteen areas that he pricked were part of the heavenly meridian, the core meridian, and the prime meridian.

There was barely any hesitation in between each prick, and Gerald’s movements were so fluid that it almost seemed like he was performing some kind of magic show. Zane himself—who had been standing next to Gerald—couldn’t help but feel slightly dumbfounded.

Turning to look at Jace, he was surprised to see how captivated the old doctor seemed to be over Gerald’s perfect needle techniques.

Regardless, once Gerald was done, he quickly snuck his hand under the quilt and held onto the baby’s wrist. With the Soul Eater technique, he then immediately began regulating and replenishing the child’s oxyblood.

“…Alright, this one’s safe now. Remember to properly cover the quilt over the baby! Now remove the clothes off the baby on Bed 2 and bring him to me! Quickly! We don’t have much time!” ordered Gerald.
