The Geared Immortal

Chapter 1154

(Unedited)

…

Thud! Thud!

The sound of the armor falling to the ground could be heard as the entire infirmary turned silent. Many did not know what just happened, but those that have quick eyes and knowledge has a surprised expression on their faces.

Those who knew saw that the short young man actually used a skill that destroyed the armor without touching the soldier.

It is a fine control and use of Ki which is very hard to grasp technique.

Then they saw the youth suddenly sending the silver needles on the wounded soldier's body. The needles hit three different spots which made the soldier suddenly open his eyes.

Xin Ja showed a faint smile on his face.

"You can stop using your Ki now… I will take care of the rest…" he said confidently.

The soldier was a bit stunned but then slowly retracted his Ki from inside his body.

Then he saw Xin Ja taking out more needles and quickly throwing them in the air as they went flying towards his body. The soldier is a bit afraid but he could not get why deep in his heart he seems to have suddenly trusted the young lad.

As his Ki receded back to his dantian, he noticed that the pain in his body also alleviated.

He is sure that he would surely die today. But now… with the presence of the young lad, hope seems to have risen from deep within his heart.

"Alright… You should not be bleeding to death now…" Xin Ja said as he carefully takes out a sharp scalpel from his medical kit and then covered his hand with his Ki.

"I will be opening your wound and will have to take out the poison arrow," he said as he bends down.

The soldier nodded his head still feeling a bit baffled.

The rest of the medics in the tent just watch this scene with confusion and a bit of stupefaction.

When they saw Xin Ja opening a wound on the shoulder of the man and using some tools to spread the skin and then slowly taking out the arrow they were all shocked. This is because they could tell that the soldier is actually not feeling any pain at all.

"Hey, did he use some sedative potion?" a medical master asked the man beside him.

The medical master just shook his head without saying anything.

"How did he do that? Just using needles and he is able to stop the pain?"

"I heard about this before… I think it was from the empire, a well-known medical master has begun experimenting on using needles to cure his patients… but I heard that it was not that effective."

"If it is not that effective, then what are we seeing now?"

"I don't know…"

The medical masters in the infirmary began to whisper while watching Xin Ja operating on the soldier.

It did not take long before, Xin Ja was able to remove the arrow and quickly apply a few droplets of potion directly on the soldier's wound.

Seeing the dark green traces receding and finally flowing out of the wound with the use of his Ki, Xin Ja heaves a sigh of relief.

He then takes out another potion which is a healing potion and puts some drops on the soldier's wound. It slowly closes the wound and Xin Ja carefully removes the remaining instruments and drops the healing potion to close the entire wound on the soldier's shoulder.

He then went to his other wounds and did the same. He did not have to use sutures are the high-grade healing potion he got has the ability to close the wound at the rate visible to the naked eye. Plus the other wound is not that deep except for the one on the soldier's stomach which already shows his intestines.

After working on the soldier, Xin Ja stood up and then quickly looks around.

At this time, he suddenly noticed strange gazes directed at him.

But then suddenly something happened which shocked the people in the infirmary.

And that is when the heavily wounded soldier slowly sits down and then checks his own body. As if he has just woken up from a strange dream the man could still not believe what is happening as he slowly stands up.

When this happens… everyone is already gasping in disbelief.

Xin Ja did not mind what is happening around him, as he is already in healing mode. He is like a robot that would seek out the wounded and quickly heal them at fast as he could just like what happened in the War Games.

The soldiers who were helped by him could not help but show astonishment on their faces as they could not believe what is happening. They did not know who this small guy is, but his abilities are far too terrifying.

It was like they never suffer any wounds at all and their bodies are ready and fit to battle once again.

When Xin Ja finished his task, he looks around and was suddenly stunned.

This is because everyone is actually watching him.

He shyly lowers his head and realized what he has done.

And so he wanted to quickly run away, but someone suddenly blocked his path.

"Who… who are you? Are you sent from the capital's royal infirmary?" the medical master asked with a big smile on his face.

Xin Ja suddenly showed an awkward smile on his face. He did not know what to say and how to explain himself. When he discovers that he is going to war, there are two things that come to his mind. One is that he would pretend that he is strong and that he is not afraid so that his father and Yao Xue would not worry. And second is that he would quickly heal the soldiers just like what he did in the War Games so that they will continue to battle the enemy like an immortal army.

That way, he would not have to go out there and see the gruesome battlefield which would surely affect his mentality.

He has been observing this for a while now, and he could feel that he seem to be itching for a fight whenever he could see blood being spilled.

It's like remembering the past trauma which seems to be still present in his subconscious mind.

But then he did not realize that on the very first day, he would commit such a mistake. And so, he feels a bit embarrassed and wanted to hide.

But who would have known that he would suddenly be surrounded by the people inside the infirmary?

"Little Medic… Thank you… Thank you for saving my life." A soldier said.

"Yes, thank you so much… I feel better and ready to fight now… Haha…"

"I guess we won't worry about getting killed now as long as the injury is not fatal, right? With you in here, those bastards would not think of escaping our wrath!"

The enthusiastic soldiers said while gathering around Xin Ja. Meanwhile, besides the soldiers, there are also the medical masters surrounding him.

"Little lad, what kind of potion did you use?"

"Why would you open up the wound rather than close it?"

"What kind of antidote were you using?"

"By the way… How are you able to use those needles?"

The equally enthusiastic medical masters suddenly drowned Xin Ja with their questions which made him feel really embarrassed now.

This is because the people around him are seniors, and he dare not show disrespect towards them especially on how these people treat him.

"Everyone… disperse!" suddenly a loud voice interrupted the commotion inside the infirmary.

"What is happening here?" the tall and burly man asked as he walks inside.

Following behind him are the officers of the army with their silver armor which looks imposing.

Suddenly, the group noticed that the people standing before them are actually those wounded soldiers that were sent to this infirmary.

There are two infirmaries that were set up in the town, and this is the second one where the heavily wounded people are sent.

Except for those who lost their limbs and have never been recovered, everyone inside this supposed to be critically wounded soldier's quarters is actually standing up as if nothing has happened.

And what baffled them is that they were surrounding a young boy wearing a medic's uniform.

Upon hearing a commanding officer ask the question, the one in charge of the infirmary which is an old-looking man with white hair step forward.

"Nothing is wrong, Commander Yi… We are just happy that the soldiers are not fit for duty!" the old man said with a smile while bowing his head.

The man named Commander Yi looks around and showed a slight doubt in his eyes, but he did not push on the matter. He just nodded his head and turns around to leave.

One of the officers pointed at a soldier and then said.

"You… follow us…" he said as he turns around.

The soldier was a bit stunned but suddenly looks at the old man. The old man shakes his head and said in a low tone. "Do not tell… It will bring trouble to the young lad…"

The young soldier seems to know what the medical master means and nodded his head as he walks out.

Before leaving, he took a glance at the young man who is showing awkwardness in his eyes.
