Chapter 8 - Chapter 8: When I Feel Unwell, I Will Operate Again

Lynn nodded.

Then he pulled out the bill, paused for a moment, and said:

"Though it's not really the right time to say this, I still have to tell you."

The surgery costs 300 Skull Coins, but since it's my first time, I'll give you an 80% discount—totaling 240 Skull Coins. The sewing fee is separate, bringing the total to 280 Skull Coins. How about you sign the contract?

Oo—oo—

The pig-headed demon let out a pitiful pig-like howl, his spirit nearly collapsing.

"Suture it! Suture it!" he trembled.

Lynn nodded and pointed to the assorted threads on the wall. "We have hemp, wool, cotton, iron wire, and steel wire here. Each type has a different price. Which one would you like?"

Tears streamed down the pig-headed demon's face as he muttered:

" twine ..."

Lynn nodded, took down the hemp thread, and said, "Do you still need..."

"Sew! Sew!" he roared.

Lynn nodded, skillfully grabbed her steel needle, flicked the hemp thread, and walked over to the Pighead Demon, biting the thread and pulling it.

"Take it easy, hold on a little longer, I'm about to start."

at last .

In about ten minutes.

Lynn took out a pair of scissors, cut the thread, and gently tapped the bow on it. She then took out a medicinal solution, poured it into her mouth, and sprayed it onto his stomach.

Immediately, the torn flesh began to close bit by bit, healing rapidly.

[Clink! You completed the hidden task and received 50 Skull Coins, 50 Surgery Experience, and +50 Visual Diagnosis Experience!]

Ding! You've earned +200 fear points for the Pighead Demon.

Ding! Your reputation in Youhun Lane increases by 10.

Lynn removed her mask, untied the handcuffs from the operating table, and held the little boy in her arms, smiling warmly.

Congratulations! The surgery went perfectly. As you can see, this was just a routine evil spirit possession. Thank goodness you came to me—otherwise, you'd be in serious trouble!

drone ——

For a moment, Lynn felt everything blur before her eyes.

Then a dark figure suddenly trembled as it leapt from the operating table, clutching its stomach and sprinting toward the door at an unimaginable speed.

I won't come again!

He swore he would never come again!

Surgery is like slaughtering a pig! Just one doctor visit and you're left with this damn psychological trauma!

 ...

Boss! Your daughter forgot to bring it! This is a pharmacy—we don't take care of babysitting!

Lin En sprinted after him, shouting, and caught up with him right at the gate.

When I looked again, the pig-headed monster was nowhere to be seen in the darkness.

Lynn sighed.

After a moment's thought, he still shouted into the eerie darkness, saying:

Boss, if you're still feeling unwell, I'll perform the surgery again. Next time, I promise to give you anesthesia. And most importantly, come over right away to take your newborn daughter away!

moment .

The darkness, which had been bustling with activity, suddenly fell into a strange silence.

Lynn turned and went back to her pharmacy.He then dashed to the counter, rummaged through the drawers below, and pulled out a small bottle of potent recovery potion. With a gurgling sound, he poured it over his right eye.

The eyeball he had forcibly removed gradually regained its vitality.

Although it still hurts.

But it worked well.

Lynn rubbed her reddened eyes and murmured:

"Living in this world is really nerve-wracking..."

He dared to gouge out his own eyes not because he was truly ruthless, but because he knew his shop had high-grade healing potions that could rapidly restore the wounds.

But this is a high-end product, which he can't produce—it's his teacher's stock.

These items are usually for personal use and are not for sale.

[Ding! You can upgrade multiple abilities. Your reputation in Youhun Lane has improved. Check the panel.]

Lynn froze in surprise, then opened the system panel.

[Introduction]: The Blood Saw Pharmacy has some deranged apprentices. Many patients have sensed his profound malice, and he appears to be gradually adopting his teacher's twisted methods...

Lyn :"..."

What is the meaning of the last comment?

Isn't this insulting?

Not at all objective or fair.

Apart from not using anesthesia, he was extremely responsible toward his patients. This is the system's malicious retaliation against him!

Lynn shook her head.

But he soon noticed that he had upgraded.

You've upgraded from Level 2 to Level 3, and now you can also earn points for West Point.

have to say .

From this perspective, the interface this system offers still gives off that classic low-quality online game vibe.

But it's crystal clear: this isn't an online game—it's a vicious, dark alternate reality where death is final.

Lynn didn't hesitate.

He assigned all the West Point attributes to his constitution.

No other.

To become a qualified doctor, one must have a robust constitution. In this chaotic world, a frail body can become the final straw that takes your life at any moment.

in any case .

Survival is the primary factor in this world.

" confirm ."

Lin En instantly felt a surge of heat coursing through her body.

He knew the West Point attribute points were starting to kick in.

Subtly, the fatigue from the earlier surgery was swiftly dispelled by the heat, replaced by boundless energy.He took off his coat.

He looked at his abdomen.

Within those few minutes, his once-flat abdomen had already developed distinct contours of abdominal muscles.

Lynn felt the beauty of having a healthy body.

"Wow—wow—"

From the counter behind me, the ghostly infant's wails echoed in waves.

Lin En rushed to the counter, clutching the bloodied ghost baby. The moment she laid eyes on it, she immediately sensed something was amiss.

Because it is not fully developed, it is only about the size of an adult's fist.

Except for the mouth, which resembles a black hole, the rest of the cheeks are smooth and flawless, as if covered with a layer of silk.

Evil Spirit Blood Baby (Unformed)

Gender: Female

[Level: 2]

Lynn: "???"

How could this ghostly infant, still at level 1, have leveled up to 2 in such a short time?

Does this mean the ghost baby is taking shape fast?

Just then, a system prompt flashed through his mind.

[Click! You've triggered the optional hidden task: Ghost Baby's Form Alteration. As the Ghost Baby was born prematurely, the ghostly energy within it is rapidly distorting its appearance. The more terrifying its appearance becomes, the more sinister the Ghost Baby will reveal upon revival!]
