Chapter 1155

(Unedited)

…

Inside a room in a dilapidated and broken building of the town, three medical masters are currently sitting behind a desk while looking at the shy youth sitting opposite of them.

The old man who seems to be the senior of the three slowly brushes his beard and then spoke.

"Young lad… what is your name?"

Xin Ja slowly lifted his head and then looks at the old man.

"I'm… I'm Xin Ja… from… Ogden Town…" he replied while biting his lips.

His fingers are twirling while feeling nervous. He was too rash when he did such a thing as he has been on his toes ever since he came to the stronghold, or rather starting from the training area in the Ogden Southern Gate Village where he and the rest were trained before coming to the stronghold.

The feeling of anxiety, nervousness, and fear combine in his mind hence he suddenly lost himself and did what he did in the infirmary without thinking of the consequence. And now that he realized his folly, he is once again feeling nervous about what would happen next.

"Sigh… You did something outrageous out there which I have never seen before… Did you know that this would cause you more trouble than you could handle, right?" the old man said with a hint of concern in his eyes.

"You are only at the 1st level, and yet your skill is truly something else… Hmm…" the old man said and then kept his silence once again while thinking of ways on how to help the young man.

"Senior… Why not ask him to teach the other medical masters that way, that technique could be spread out and then we can…" one of the medical masters on the side said.

"No… if he teaches everyone that technique it would have an adverse effect…"

"Then what should we do then? I think he could not handle treating thousands of soldiers by his own when the war would once again resume…"

"I agree senior… Why should we just let him teach us then, and we can slowly spread it to the camp…"

The old man did not answer and just thought for a while. He then looks at the youth in front of him.

"What do you think young lad?" he asked.

Xin Ja was a bit taken aback being asked such a question… but then he suddenly thought of something which he needed to tell them.

"My medical technique came from Divine Doctor Ba… So I can teach some of it, but not all…"

When the three men heard this, they all showed a surprised expression… then realization.

"Hmm… No wonder your medical skill is too horrifying. Being a disciple of a Divine Doctor means that you almost have the skill of your own master... Alright… If you teach us a single skill, then it would surely boost our healing potential which would help our soldiers survive in battle." The old man said.

"I am very curious of the pain reliever using the needles…" the old man said.

The two others nodded their heads. They also saw how the young lad treated the soldiers, and from their perspective, they could already tell the logic behind what the young lad is doing. But the key to all of that is the pain control using those needles. That would be of great help to them if they could learn it. It would surely be able to help more soldiers endure the operations given to them.

Upon hearing this, Xin Ja nodded his head and began taking out some empty scrolls. When the medical masters saw this, they suddenly stopped him.

"Wait, young lad… Use this instead…" one of them said as he takes out a rough white paper.

Xin Ja was a bit stunned but realized that these types of paper were the ones used in books that he had seen in the academy library. It is said that these types of paper are uncommon, so he is a bit surprised at seeing such a thing in here.

But he did not hesitate to accept the pages of papers and used his own writing tool to begin scribbling on them.

In different parts of the body, there are pain receptors and their locations, so he began writing their locations, the purpose, and which part of the body the pain would have an effect on. While doing this, he takes out his silver needles and puts them on the table for the medical masters to test.

4 hours later…

The military inquisition was finished and the soldiers questioned were dismissed.

At this time, they called for Xin Ja who is once again nervous while facing the military officers in front of him. They all look strict and have a domineering aura around them which seems to cover his little existence.

Then the man in the middle seat suddenly spoke.

"You have saved our soldiers… On behalf of the military deployed in this town,… I thank you." The man said without changing his expression.

Xin Ja showed a shocked expression but did not answer as he did not know what to say.

"Haha… General, you are trying to scare your son's benefactor…" one of the middle-aged officers on the side said with a chuckle.

The rest also chuckled with him.

The heavy atmosphere suddenly became a bit light as Xin Ja heaves a silent sigh. He did not know what is happening and dare not talk in front of these bigwigs. So feeling the atmosphere lighting up, made him feel a bit relaxed.

"Tha… thank you… I… I mean, you're welcome sir. It… it is my duty." Xin Ja said.

The rest of the soldiers smile at the timid youth.

…

Xin Ja has already taught the chief medical master, so he did not have to do any teaching at this point in time and is currently in his tent waiting for any instruction.

It has been two days since he came to this place, and the battle seems to have stopped. Outside, the enemy soldiers could not be seen and according to the rumors that he has heard, the enemies have encamped a little distance away from the town near a forest on the south side.

But what is making them feel a bit in tenterhooks is the piece of news that the enemy is actually receiving many reinforcements on the battlefield. And this is making the atmosphere once again heavy in the town.

For the whole two days inside his own tent, Xin Ja has already made hundreds of different kinds of bone runes. Plus he has crafted many bullets inside the black pearl space. To his luck and surprise, Xin Ja discovered that in this town there are many fire crystals that are considered as common goods. They sell really cheap and are sometimes just discarded to the side.

So he has bought a lot of them and created many bullets in just a span of two days.

Creating a bullet is fairly easy as he just needed to craft the casing and the projectile, and then fill the casing with the right amount of powdered fire crystals and put in place the projectile. And that's it, he has already finished creating the basic fire bullets without a primer.

This is his basic bullet as Xin Ja would always prefer to use his Ki as a primer to control the strength of the bullet used by his Ki Buster.

He did not know what would happen in this war, so this is one of his ways to preserve himself.

On the 3rd day, the peace of the town was once again shattered by the sound of war on the horizon.

The soldiers inside the town suddenly discover that the horizon is actually filled with a large number of enemy soldiers.

Xin Ja jump high up in the air and then went climbing one of the highest buildings in the town. Upon reaching it, he immediately looks at the horizon and was immediately scared. How could he not be? Right in front of his eyes is a sea of people marching toward the town making the ground shakes.

"This is…" he muttered feeling dumbfounded.

He quickly land on the ground as his mind became a mess. He wanted to run away as soon as he saw a large number of people, but then suddenly something came to his mind.

He quickly opens his unique vision window and began searching for that particular image he had seen before. It did not take long before he is able to find what he is searching for. He saw from that scene a thick cloud of smoke rising high while a small area is devastated by a palm-size object which killed many around it.

His eyes suddenly glowed as he suddenly thought of an idea.

If they have the number, then he can only use the thing called technology to even the battlefield.

Without hesitation, he quickly enters his tent and takes out his alchemy stove, and began taking out materials from his two space inventories.

"I will not die in this place… I will live… I will live…" he muttered as he began working.
