After such a thought, virtual-novel.net felt slightly embarrassed. Alex was a married man after all.
Alex chuckled. “Oh don’t joke with me, Mr. Yoke. I’m married.”
Wallace replied, “So what if you’re married? You can always get a divorce, right? And if you can’t, you can change your nationality to become Arabian. I have connections to help with that”
Both Alex and Cheryl fell silent. ‘This old man is such a jester.’
Within just a few moments, they arrived at the patients’ ward.
Since all of these patients were filed as special cases, they were all placed together in one ward. This was more convenient for the medics responsible for their checkups.
The first patient that they saw was a petite young girl. Next to virtual-novel.net was virtual-novel.net mother. Her mother’s eyes were red, virtual-novel.net seemed to be on the edge of a mental breakdown. Who wouldn’t treasure their children? Having virtual-novel.net daughter fall victim to such disaster, virtual-novel.net felt as if the world was collapsing in front of virtual-novel.net eyes.
“Her name is Rose Carson, a student from TBU of California. She’s the study commissar of virtual-novel.net class, the earliest patient to be sent to our hospital. Her condition is worse than the others…” Cheryl introduced under virtual-novel.net breath.
Upon hearing Cheryl’s explanation, the mother started crying uncontrollably.
“Doctor, my daughter, how is she? Would virtual-novel.net end up like the first two girls…”
Before virtual-novel.net could finish virtual-novel.net sentence, Rose’s body started trembling. Her eyes were rolled back, and virtual-novel.net started frothing at the mouth.
“Ahh! Doctor! Doctor! Help, please help her!”
Cheryl immediately checked on the patient’s condition. Just then, the line on the monitor beeped into a straight line.
Everything happened so fast.
Wallace couldn’t do anything to help the patient as well.
Alex, on the other hand, furrowed his eyebrows. He saw the girl’s soul leaving virtual-novel.net body, it was very weak.
He immediately took action.
With just one hand, virtual-novel.net grabbed onto the girl’s soul and tried forcing it back into virtual-novel.net body.
“Soul shift!”
Just then, Alex could tell that the girl’s Yin was completely drained out, virtual-novel.net body was on the verge of collapsing. Hence, why virtual-novel.net soul came out of virtual-novel.net body as virtual-novel.net body could no longer hold it in.
He bit down on his finger and placed a drop of blood in between the girl’s eyebrows.
The girl’s mother couldn’t believe what virtual-novel.net was witnessing.
“This… What on earth is this?!”
“Who are you? Why are you rubbing your blood on my daughter’s forehead? Isn’t that dirty?” The mother yelled as virtual-novel.net motioned to wipe the blood off.
Wallace immediately stopped her. “Don’t wipe it off, this is to save your daughter.”
He turned to Alex with a shocked expression. “Sir, is this the mythical Blood Lock in the Witch Doctor Series?”
Alex raised his eyebrows at Wallace, “That’s unexpected, you know the Blood Lock too. Looks like you’ve done your research!”
Wallace was overjoyed, as if virtual-novel.net found treasure.
Cheryl, on the other hand, was puzzled. “What’s a Blood Lock?”
Alex’s hands hadn’t stopped moving the entire time. He pressed his palm onto the girl’s chest, using his electrifying Chi straight to virtual-novel.net heart and yelled. “Rise!”
There were quite a number of people in the ward as well. They had been staring at Alex intently, empathizing with the girl.
They were either victims themselves or the family of said victims. Up till now, they had witnessed two deaths and just couldn’t face yet another one.
“Did another person die?”
“Oh god, what would virtual-novel.net mother do now? Which bastard did such a horrible thing to them? I really wish I could skin them alive and drain them of blood!”
Someone couldn’t bear it and started crying out loud.
Suddenly, Rose’s heart monitor started beeping. What was originally a straight line, regained activity.
