I’m A Quadrillionaire chapter 488
David drove to the Capital City Champion Hospital.
The entrance of the hospital was also very lively now.
Countless reporters and onlookers crowded the door waiting for the result as dozens of security guards blocked them.
Hundreds of students from Multimedia University had been poisoned. This was a big event, hence everyone wanted to get first-hand information.
David once again found a hidden spot and went straight to the second floor.
After searching the hospital for a long time, he finally found the place where the poisoned students were located.
At this moment, the deans, professors, and experts of Capital City Champion Hospital were gathered for a meeting.
They were given a briefing by Otto Swanson, the deputy chief of the health department in Capital City.
Hundreds of university students had been poisoned. If they failed to handle such a huge case properly, it would cause social unrest and these people would be held responsible.
“Dean Griffin, you have to guarantee the safety of the students. I don’t care what method you
use.”
“Of course, Deputy Chief Swanson, please be rest assured, we will try our best,” Dean Griffin said, wiping the sweat from his forehead.
“Not try, you have to,”Otto said again in a more serious tone.
“Of course, we will.”
“Okay, let’s go see the students,” Otto said.
“Deputy Chief Swanson, have you caught the student who poisoned everyone?” Dean Griffin asked.
“I just got the news that he’s been caught,” Otto said.
“Ask him what kind of poison he used. We’ll be able to prescribe the right medicine if we know what poison he used.”
“They didn’t get anything from him. The perpetrator has lost his mind and he refuses to say anything. There is nothing we can do.”
“What… What should we do then? If we can’t determine the poison, we can only run through a checklist which will take up more time. The longer we take, the more dangerous it will be to the victims,” Dean Griffin said anxiously.
“Go through the checklist at once. I’ll urge them again to see if they can get anything,” Otto said.
“Yes!”
Dean Griffin and the rest of the professors and experts quickly left the meeting room.
After that, Otto paced back and forth in the meeting room.
At this time, he was more anxious than anyone else.
After some contemplation, he decided to go see the victims in person.
David spoke to many doctors and nurses at the scene, but they had not found out what the victims had been poisoned with.
So, they could only perform some conventional treatments.
Many people soon started to fall into a coma.
Hence, David hurriedly stepped forward to check on a student who was in a deep coma. Using his strong mind power, he could feel the student’s weak heartbeat. It felt like a candle in the wind and rain that might go out at any time.
“This is bad!
“Who are you? What are you doing here?” David turned his head, just in time to see Dean Griffin arriving with a group of experts and professors.
“I am their classmate. The chancellor asked me to check on everyone’s situation,” David replied.
“Nonsense, get out now. We’ll inform your university when the results come out. Your chancellor is also one to blame. It’s the holidays so why are the classes still ongoing? Great, everyone’s life is difficult now,” Dean Griffin complained.
“I’m a medical student so I can help,” David said.
“You’re studying medicine?”
“Well, I know traditional medicine that’s been handed down from generation to generation in my family.”,
“Alright, you can stay and help out.”
“Thank you, Doctor!”
“That’s the dean,” someone next to him said.
“Thank you, Dean!”
Dean Griffin ignored David and started looking at everyone’s symptoms.
The professors and experts behind him also started to scatter and observe the symptoms of the victims.
“Dean, bad news! This victim’s heartbeat is very weak. I don’t think he will be able to hold on any longer!”
Dean Griffin, the experts, and the professors rushed over. David followed behind them too.
After some examination.
“Tell me what you think,” Dean Griffin said.
“Dean, we can’t confirm what poison is, so we can’t give our opinions.”
“Yeah, Dean. There is still no news from the laboratory. There are too many poisons that can cause this kind of symptom and we dare not give out opinions casually. If we make a mistake, it’ll be fatal.”
“What did the lab say?”
“Dean, it’s still not confirmed yet and they’re still investigating,” someone next to him replied.
“Everyone, you just heard what Deputy Chief Swanson said, right? We must guarantee the safety of the students, otherwise, everyone will have a difficult time in the future.”
‘Um…’
The experts and professors looked at each other, feeling a little helpless.
David watched from behind as the top professors in these hospitals struggled to come up with a solution. There was nothing they could do.
He could not just stand idly by and watch these students die!
He looked at the 8678 lavish points on his system pane before gritting his teeth and closing his eyes.
Then, he added Somerland Ancient Traditional Medicine to the skills column.
Soon, a pop-up window appeared.
(Are you sure you want to learn Somerland Ancient Traditional Medicine? This will consume 1000 lavish points.)
‘Confirm!
David clicked without hesitation.
His lavish points dropped from 8678 to 7678.
After this, David felt a lot of knowledge regarding ancient traditional medicine fill his mind, as well as the identification methods and medicinal functions of countless herbs.
Furthermore, he also learned what kind of medicinal effects would be produced by the combination of various herbs.
Some were used for healing while some combinations were harmful. However, he seemed to not have clinical poison identification!
He only knew how to differentiate some simple symptoms.
‘What the fck is this? ‘Is the level of my skill not enough?’ – David glanced at the Somerland Ancient Traditional Medicine skill in the system. Sure enough, he was just entry-level at this skill. ‘Fck!’
David could not stop himself from cursing at this moment.
He spent 1000 lavish points just to get an entry-level skill.
David had no choice but to upgrade it.
[Are you sure you want to upgrade Somerland Ancient Traditional Medicine? This upgrade will consume 1000 lavish points.]
‘Another thousand lavish points.
‘Why don’t you just rob me?’
As David scolded, he clicked the button.
‘Confirm!
He consumed another 1000 lavish points.
His lavish points dropped from 7678 points down to 6678 points.
David’s heart was in excruciating pain when he looked at the lavish points that he spent.
The skill Somerland Ancient Traditional Medicine on the system panel had been upgraded from Entry-level to Expert.
David felt a lot of knowledge fill his mind again.
This time, he saw that there was finally a subject called clinical poison identification.
