I am God!

Chapter 183
The house of the witch doctor.

Below the high hut, there appeared a series of stone houses.

From the six witch doctors who were lonely at the beginning, dozens of witch doctor apprentices gradually appeared here.

The apprentices built a castle building on the other side of the drawbridge, which they called the Medical Fort.

They will take turns going out to see a doctor.

On weekdays, their tasks include helping the witch doctor with some experiments, dissecting human bodies or other animals, transcribing books, looking after experimental animals, making dissecting dolls, teaching new apprentices, and so on.

Life here is not easy, very busy.

Dozens of apprentices didn't stay here all the time. Some people left after learning enough things, and returned to their hometown to become a qualified doctor and enjoy success and fame.

Some people wanted to learn more advanced knowledge, so they stayed.

Apprentices come and go.

The six witch doctors did not keep anyone, but let everyone go and stay openly.

Witch doctors spend more time researching how to discover new species, or even create new life.

From time to time, witch doctors can be seen returning from the outside world, bringing back newly discovered species to record.

This also made the six witch doctors travel around a lot of time, and rarely gathered together.

On this day, the apprentice who went out for medical treatment returned from the medical fort.

Lamps are lit in the dark, and apprentices gather together.

"There are more and more people on the other side of the bridge, and it's almost like a small town." The apprentice has some snacks from outside, and he thinks it's not bad. Inhabited wilderness.

"Many of the people who came here for treatment recuperated in the house outside. After they got well, they stayed here." Someone explained the reason to the new apprentices.

"Also, the war outside is not over yet. Recently, many people have come to our side not to see a doctor, but to escape." An apprentice who had just returned said with a sigh.

"Escape to such a remote wilderness?" This was an apprentice who hadn't stepped out for a long time and was immersed in medical skills. He was a little surprised when he heard the news.

"War is terrible! Those soldiers robbed everywhere and killed everyone they saw, no different from robbers." The apprentice explained.

"A war broke out in my hometown. I don't know what's going on now." Someone in the crowd narrated worriedly.

Lester was the one in the crowd. He was the first apprentice to come to the witch doctor's house, and he was also the one with the best medical skills and the most trusted by the six witch doctors.

Among these apprentices, Lester has a very high prestige, and he will handle some important matters instead of the witch doctor.

On weekdays, he would take advantage of this moment of chatting to tell everyone some theoretical knowledge, allowing everyone to ask him questions and then answer them.

But today he was silent.

No one dared to disturb him, and everyone saw that he was in a bad mood.

He held a letter in his hand, a letter from his hometown.

Letters from his relatives told him that a war might break out in Cross City soon.

The legion of the Kingdom who came to suppress the rebellion and the armies of several great lords are going to start a decisive battle in this area. Tens of thousands of soldiers plus priests and monsters have begun to fight among the dozens of cities and small towns and villages to eradicate each other. stronghold.

Cross City is the most important city among them, and it is currently in the hands of the rebels. His Majesty the King will never give up.

war.

Unavoidable.

In any case, it is impossible for the civilians in the city to be unaffected, and it is even said that they are usually the ones who suffer the most damage.

"War!"

Lester didn't understand that they were trying their best to save people, while some people were trying their best to kill people.

How could there be such a strange thing in this world.

The next day, he asked a witch doctor named Left Hand while conducting an experiment.

"My lord witch doctor."

"Why do you do so many experiments?"

"We seem to have no direction, just trying aimlessly."

The witch doctor told Lester: "We were born to find the meaning of life, and the meaning of life will not appear out of thin air, it exists in life."

"In the undiscovered life, the new life."

Lester asked: "So what is the meaning of life?"

Witch Doctor: "We're still looking."

Lester is really hard to understand: "Looking for something that I don't know what it is, then what is its significance? What can it bring us?"

Witch Doctor: "It's because I don't know, that's why I'm looking for it."

"As for what it can bring, that's another matter."

"It's our mission to find it."

Lester doesn't care about the mysteries of life. He just wants to learn the medical knowledge he wants here, and then return to his hometown to become a doctor who cures diseases and saves lives.

You don't need to be powerless to watch patients in pain, and you don't need to be blocked at the door and call them liars.

There is no need to fail because of lack of technology and knowledge, and be called a murderous doctor.

Of course, in addition to this, he has some more ambitious goals.

Become a great physician who founded medicine, and then pass on your knowledge and discoveries, so that the name of physician is no longer associated with liars, but a profession that is truly admired.

He wants to be remembered.

He suddenly thought of the statue he saw when he passed Anjo City.

Statue of Saint Stan Tito.

"perhaps."

"At that time, someone will erect such a statue for me, so that everyone who passes through Cross City can see me."

"They will bow before my statue and remember my name for generations to come."

It was also at this moment that Lester thought of going home.

He has learned everything that can be learned, and the rest that cannot be learned involve extraordinary power.

but.

He was a little bit dissatisfied.

Did you go back like this?
Although he has learned a lot of medical skills, he has a very deep understanding of the structure of the human body.

He knew how to treat various injuries and diseases, operated on many diseases, and knew how to use and cultivate several plants to heal wounds and speed up the effect of treatment.

But so what?
Having seen the witch doctor's means of controlling life, he felt that these powers were so shallow.

They are still helpless for many truly serious diseases and injuries that endanger organs, and they need to rely on the power of witch doctors to treat them.

He clearly knew what would cause the death, but there was nothing he could do about it.

They learn from witch doctors and call themselves witch doctor apprentices.

But not a witch doctor.

Because the most powerful means of witch doctors is that they can create the elixir that can treat various diseases, and they can create various organs through strange powers.

Lester asked the witch doctor many times: "How can I have such power?"

The witch doctors will only answer: "You can't learn it."

He didn't know if it was true, or if it was just the witch doctor's reluctance to impart that almost miraculous power.

Just as he was deep in thought, the witch doctor suddenly said to Lester: "Go to the trilobite cultivation room and catch ten trilobites."

Lester nodded: "Okay, Mr. Witch Doctor."

After speaking, he walked out of the three-storey small building of the witch doctor's house, and walked through the street of houses where the apprentices lived.

He came out into the mist.

The mist blocked the sun in the sky, and it looked a little dark and damp here,
There are various buildings in the fog, and faint shadows can be seen in the distance.

That was the outer layer of the witch doctor's house, the towering walls.

"hiss!"

"Dong dong!"

Before I went in, I heard the slight sound of bugs, and the sound of crawling and hitting glass.

He walked into a building with the sign of Trilobite Cultivation Room, all of which were tall glass cabinets.

Inside the glass is sea water, and there are large and small trilobites wandering in the water.

The different glass cabinets are also hung with coarse woven labels, marking the differences between these trilobites.

This is the normal life collection and cultivation room, besides that there is the modified life support room and the most rigorous extraordinary laboratory.

The ordinary life cultivation room is collected from various places, most of which are naturally evolved.

Just looking at the pottery plaques hanging on the doors around the trilobite cultivation room, you can find creatures such as worms, trilobites, and cup worms, as well as some ancient cup creatures and crinoids, all of which are used as specimens Or the test material is placed here.

Apprentices will help take care of these monsters and life created by doctors on a daily basis.

The transformation of the life feeding room is different, it is the creation of the witch doctor after conducting life experiments.

However, most of them are closely related to other creatures in nature, and many of them are not new species at all, but have some strange changes.

Lester had seen huge blood-sucking worms that grew to more than ten meters. The witch doctors didn't know how to make these things grow so big.

I also saw molluscs with various strange organs, bugs with legs that could walk on land, and even a man-eating plant that could swallow a clover.

You can only enter here with the permission of the witch doctor, because it is indeed dangerous.

As for the extraordinary laboratory, it is strictly forbidden for others to enter.

Because even if the monsters inside are imprisoned, you hear their voices and are caught by them.

All may be controlled or lose their lives.

Holding the jar containing the trilobites, Lester came to the three-story building of the witch doctor, only to find that the witch doctor named Left Hand was already waiting there.

"You follow me."

"Other witch doctors are busy, and you just happened to be my assistant today."

The witch doctor took him directly to the extraordinary laboratory.

This is the first time Leicester has been here. The building is completely underground and goes up and down through an elevator like a bone prison.

There is a small window on the elevator, and it will stop every time it goes down.

When he got down to the first floor, he looked out through the small window.

It was a narrow passage, and on both sides of the passage were prison-like buildings, in which terrifying monsters were sealed off.

Even if they didn't make a sound or move, Lester felt a strong coercion over his heart.

That is life's fear of extraordinary biological instincts.

The passage keeps going down, and there are many monsters imprisoned on each floor, and the more it goes down, the more dangerous it is.

Down to the last floor is a wide square.

The square is circular, with one stone gate after another, and each stone gate has a different pattern, marking their different functions.

Lester noticed the criss-crossing pipes above his head, and these pipes converged to the ground to form a huge water pipe with a diameter of several meters.

This huge pipeline leads to the sea and is connected to the bottom of the sea.

"It turns out that's how the water we use comes from."

After coming to the witch doctor's house for so many years, Lester has been using the water pipe that can get water as soon as the switch is turned on, but today he really knows how the water comes from.

It is these pipelines that pump seawater to the various cultivation rooms and witch doctor huts on the ground, supplying everyone's use, as well as cultivation experiments.

As for how to extract it must involve extraordinary power, Leicester can't figure it out.

Lester asked: "Master Witch Doctor! What experiment are we doing today?"

The witch doctor replied: "Make a three-leaf man."

Lester was taken aback: "What?"

He thought he had heard something wrong.

The witch doctor just had a whim. They have already transformed life and created extraordinary life with unstable lifespan and extremely short lifespan.

Then can they create a kind of Sanye people derived from the power of life, an intelligent race of power of life?
This idea came to him suddenly when he saw Leicester just now.

Think about it and do it right away.

It doesn't matter even if it fails, it's the first time to conduct an experiment anyway.

The witch doctor pushed open a stone door, and the corresponding ritual array was already carved on the ground inside.

"Lester."

"Take out a trilobite and put it on top."

The witch doctor took out a stone, an irregular blood-red stone.

There is a mirror-like luster on it, and the transparent glue is so strong that it feels like water will drip out.

"What is this?" It wasn't the first time Lester had seen this stone, but this was the first time he had the courage to ask.

In his opinion, such things must involve the most fundamental secrets of witch doctors.

Asking questions rashly may cause dissatisfaction among witch doctors.

He had seen the witch doctor take out this before, and in the blink of an eye, he created a heart, a large amount of blood, and copied the organs of the three-leaf man.

He saw that witch doctors held it in one hand, and with the other they were able to revive patients who were obviously dead but not completely dead.

Leicester saw it too.

The witch doctor used this stone to turn some weak life species into terrifying monsters that could easily devour and kill the Sanye people in the blink of an eye.

"You can call it a life bloodstone." The witch doctor replied.

This thing is like the legendary panacea of ​​doctors.

Can heal all wounds.

Rebirth of broken limbs, resurrection of the dying, and creation of life.

In front of it, everything seemed extremely easy.

The apprentices in the House of the Witch Doctors often say that the Witch Doctors wield the power of the Elixir, that strange powder they make with the Bone God spell.

It is proof.

In fact, this is the solidified solidity of the mythical blood of life power.

The ceremony starts.

The life-blood stone that the witch doctor placed on the ritual array flowed blood-red light and poured it into the body of the trilobite.

The trilobite's reminder continued to swell, but it was obvious that it would soon be unable to bear the force.

The witch doctor only produced a large trilobite worm, and it died shortly after it was born.

The experiment failed, or exactly as the witch doctor expected.

The witch doctor shook his head and said calmly.

"Creating intelligent life is indeed the power of a god!"

"God can create trilobites out of trilobites, and we are far from reaching this point."

"What? You said this thing is our ancestor?" Lester felt that this statement was really funny.

"Don't you think they are very similar to you?" Lester didn't even notice that the other party was talking about you.

"Where does it look, sir witch doctor, stop joking." Lester couldn't accept this statement.

They are trilobites.

How could the darling of the gods and the ruler of the earth be transformed by bugs?

The witch doctor looked at him with interest, and talked about another piece of evidence.

"That!"

"Why do you call yourself Sanye?"

"And they... just happen to be called trilobites?"

"These two names were given by the gods."

The witch doctors said so, but the Sanye people didn't believe it: "It just happens to have the same name."

The witch doctor didn't bother with this problem.

He put the dead body of the test subject into a glass jar under mental control, and then left the laboratory with the jar.

"You are waiting for me here."

The witch doctor named Left Hand left, and Lester looked around boredly.

Suddenly, he discovered that the red stone was still placed on the ritual array.

He froze for a moment, then picked up the stone as if by accident.

Irregular stones have a gelatinous texture, smooth and greasy to the touch.

It doesn't look solid either.

"Boom!"

As soon as he exerted force, a small piece of stone was buckled from the stone.

He panicked immediately, and after thinking for a while, he immediately put the small piece that was buckled into his pocket.

He had just put the stone down on the spot when he heard footsteps outside.

"Lester!"

"I'm here." Lester responded immediately, but his body was a little stiff, and he spoke in a hurry.

The witch doctor came in and packed up his things, and then said to Lester.

"go!"

"Go up."

Lester followed the doctor, but his mind was involuntarily concentrated in his pocket.

Heart agitated.

A few days later, news came from outside that the Dark River region had been completely recovered by the Kingdom.

The rebellious lord was beheaded and sent to the City of Gods.

The war is over.

At this time, Lester also proposed to the witch doctors the idea of ​​leaving the witch doctor's house.

"Lester!"

"How long have you been here?"

The witch doctor named Left Hand asked him. This witch doctor was friendly to the Sanye people and trusted Lester very much.

In a sense, he is Leicester's teacher.

Although Leicester has always called him Mr. Witch Doctor, or Mr. Left Hand.

"It's almost ten years," Lester said.

The witch doctor nodded: "Ten years."

"For you, it should be a very long time."

"It's time to go home."

Ten years is just a blink of an eye for a witch doctor, but for ordinary people, there are not many ten years in life.

Especially, when young and in good health.

The left-handed witch doctor stood up and patted Lester's shoulder with his gloved hand.

"I hope that the knowledge you have learned in the witch doctor's house can become the power to realize your ideals."

"but."

"Power does not distinguish between good and evil. If he can save people, he can kill people."

"I hope you can really make good use of it."

Lester nodded: "Master Left Hand, I will."

After speaking, the witch doctor gave him a gift.

A blood red worm in a jar.

Lester asked the witch doctor: "What is this?"

"A blood-sucking worm?"

The witch doctor shook his head: "This is my latest creation, it is an extraordinary life."

"But don't worry, it's not harmful."

"As long as you feed it, it can store blood in its body, and the blood it stores can be replaced with blood that matches anyone."

"When you need it, you only need to follow the method I said, and you can create suitable blood."

Needless to say, Lester certainly knows how important and powerful this is as a medical tool.

Most of the seriously injured died because of excessive blood loss.

When performing surgery on people, it is also inseparable from the blood supply.

With this blood-sucking worm, he's free to fuck.

The witch doctor treated him very well, which made Lester suddenly feel guilty about his previous behavior, but he still did not hand over the life blood stone he stole.

"Thank you!"

"My lord witch doctor."

-

cross city.

Lester rode a three-wheeled trailer loaded with boxes.

The familiar cross avenue, the ancient mottled city wall appeared in the distance.

"Finally home."

Lester jumped down a little excitedly, and pushed the car towards the front.

He looked at the surrounding scenery, every stone here, a mountain peak in the distance.

Can bring back his memories.

A war broke out here not long ago. In order to compete for this rich and strategically important city, the two sides used the power of the priesthood.

Large pits appeared on the city wall, and some of them showed signs of collapse.

It was also after this battle that the rebels had no more resistance, and the king's army went all the way deep into the Underworld region to recover the last lost ground.

Lester pushed the trailer to the city gate, paid the city entrance tax and entered.

The guard at the gate of the city said to his companions while checking, "The war is finally over, and more and more people are coming back."

The companion responded: "After fighting for so many years, it's time to stop."

Peace came again as the rebellion was quelled.

But what Leicester saw when he entered the city was a mess.

Prosperity is gone.

Years of wars, lack of production, and the severance of commercial routes made the people of this city flee to death, and the rest of the people did not live well.

There are beggars and orphans left by the war everywhere, and there are many people with broken hands and legs on the streets, these are the wounded left over from the war.

"It's really shocking!"

Lester was a little worried, but he also believed that as long as peace came, everything would be restored.

Lester returned to his home, and just as he opened the door of his home, a voice came from behind him.

The neighbor across the door looked at him, but did not recognize Lester: "Who are you?"

Lester felt both funny and sad: "I'm Lester!"

The other party looked at him carefully, and then finally remembered.

The other party rushed over, looked at him from head to toe, then pointed at him and said loudly.

"Are you Lester?"

"The Lester who went to learn medicine from the witch doctor?"

Lester nodded: "It's me."

Immediately there were shouts from the street: "Lester is back!"

"Lester is back."

"The Lester who went to practice medicine with witch medicine is back."

On this street, Leicester can also be regarded as a figure with a great reputation.

Like the Vivien sisters on the other street, he is a character that people in his hometown are proud of, a name that people in his hometown often mention and a topic of conversation when they chat.

A large number of people poured out of the streets and alleys all of a sudden, looking towards this side.

The quiet street suddenly became extremely lively.

"You're back."

"How many years have you been away?"

"How was your life with the witch doctor? Did you really learn the spell that can resurrect the dead?"

The news is always spreading more and more outrageous.

From the eyes of the people in his hometown, Leicester seemed to be no longer a mortal, but a person who had mastered some kind of magical secret technique, a person who could fight against death.

Lester felt a little funny and could only explain.

"I'm studying medicine."

"It's not magic."

People in my hometown think it is similar. Is there any difference between witch doctor's medical skills and magical skills?

Moreover, they can't see or touch the magic skills, but the medical skills can be seen and touched, and they can save their lives.

Lester looked at all the familiar faces and sighed.

"Everyone has changed a lot!"

When they left that year, these people were still in their prime, and many of them were still children.

And when he came back, many people were already old.

But the children back then had grown up and looked at him with a strange face, as if looking at some legendary figure.

"Is he that Lester?"

"Lester, who is so skilled in medicine that he can save the dead?"

"I've said it all, he is the most powerful one at the witch doctor's hut."

"I heard that Vivien's sister was guided by him to go to the witch doctor back then. Vivien's sister survived, and later she had the opportunity to go to the Temple of Truth."

Looking at the expectant eyes of his hometown, Lester stood on the steps in front of his house.

He said it to everyone.

"Let me tell you one thing, I won't leave when I come back this time."

"I will establish my own clinic here, and treat everyone in the future."

"If you have any difficulties or problems, you can come to my clinic or find me at home."

The crowd burst into cheers. Having a doctor from the Witch Doctor House is a good thing for the entire Cross City.

In the future, if there is any serious injury or disease, there is no need to wait for death.

Leicester's hospital is located on this street, and it is named Leicester's hospital.

the first year.

It has a very big reputation.

He can save seriously injured and dying people from the brink of death, and he can solve all kinds of incredible and difficult diseases through magical surgery.

The various methods he used, to ordinary people, seemed like magic and magic. They were extremely mysterious, but they could save people's lives.

He is the enemy of death and the savior of the sick.

"Holy Hand Lester."

That's what Lester was called, and his reputation grew.

Not only the people in Cross City recognized his medical skills, but the dignitaries regarded him as a guest.

Even patients from outside the city flocked to see him at the infirmary in Leicester.

the second year.

The Leicester Medical Institute was expanded and turned into a huge medical fort, located in the most prominent position in the city.

He also took in many apprentices. There were dozens of them in the medical fort, and they took in and treated a large number of patients every day.

The third year.

He married a wife and started a family of his own.

His life is happy and complete, and Lester is satisfied with his life.

But he still has something unsatisfactory, and that is his medical skills.

Lester's home is full of records of various treatment cases, and the shelves are full of various medical books. This is not like a home, but more like another hospital.

His wife is also a physician, an admirer of his.

At the same time, his wife was also responsible for assisting in organizing his medical skills into a book.

This is Leicester's greatest ambition.

Let his medical skills flourish and become the founder of medical skills among all the people.

this day.

When Lester returned home, he sat down on the chair a little dejectedly.

"what happened?"

Lester: "A patient died today, and I can't save him."

His wife comforted him: "This is normal, you are not a god, how can you save everyone."

Lester looked at his wife: "Do you think my medical skills are good?"

His wife looked at him adoringly and put her arms around his neck.

"of course."

"You are the most powerful doctor I have ever seen."

Lester shook his head: "But it's too far behind the witch doctor."

"Even if it is the most powerful doctor, it is impossible to compare with the witch doctor."

"wrong."

"Not even one of their little fingers."

He let go of his wife's hand and came to the closed building behind the yard.

There are many seabed plants growing here, and there are many bugs in a huge glass cover.

Open a secret door and enter the secret room below.

It's completely different here.

There are a lot of bottles and jars here, and there are various internal organs in the jars.

And most conspicuously.

It was a bloody worm, which was a gift from Leicester's teacher, the left-handed witch doctor.

It is precisely because of it that Leicester was able to establish his own reputation in Cross City so quickly, becoming the "Holy Hand" that everyone extolled.

Lester opened the table and took out its contents.

This is a red stone the size of a fingernail, but such a small piece has unparalleled vitality.

"Lifestone."

"The stone that represents the power of life, what other miracles can you create?"

Lester has been researching the function of this bloodstone of life, as well as the power of blood-sucking worms.

Blood-sucking worms are able to replicate blood, and a lifestone is also a type of blood.

It's just that the power of the life blood stone is too strong and too unstable.

He has been trying to create a medicine that has the power of the life blood stone but is more stable by fusing the power of the two.

Something that heals any wound and cures all kinds of ailments.

It's like the bone meal that witch doctors have created to cure diseases, and it's like the panacea that doctors have passed on by word of mouth.

"A panacea."

"I will definitely be able to create a real panacea."

Lester looked at the red stone.

Red seems to have a special power, with a strong temptation, people can't help but fall into it.

It represents death, but also represents life.

Both despair and hope can be seen in this color.

"The power of a witch doctor cannot be imparted to everyone."

"Then I will use my own way to create our own power."
