Chapter 3 The Big Misfortune Minotaur

Charlotte took two steps back and watched the huge body fall to the ground in front of her.

"Eh? Doctor, why didn't you catch me?" The Minotaur lying on the ground raised his head with a face full of resentment.

"Sorry, this is beyond my ability." Charlotte spread her hands.

This Minotaur with a black bull head, more than three meters tall, and weighing no less than one thousand pounds, is he expecting a princess hug?

He is now just a weak human who can't do magic.

Charlotte looked at the Minotaur lying on the ground. His body was covered with bloody wounds, the longest of which was nearly half a meter long, with varying depths.

Blood was still pouring out, and there was sand and stone in the wound. One of the white horns on his head was broken.

It was as if he had just been beaten and hacked, and it was horrible.

"How did you get this injury?" Charlotte helped the Minotaur up from the ground and asked.

"My wife went to a club to find a male demon, and I caught her. I beat the demon up, and then my wife hacked me up like this... I've been with her for over thirty years, and yet I'm not even worth a guy she's known for only three days! They say 'a bull's head doesn't fit a horse's mouth,' but they don't belong together at all. I loved her so much, why would she hurt me like this..." The minotaur suddenly broke down, crying uncontrollably.

"He's really got the short end of the stick!" Charlotte was taken aback by the story.

His wife not only went to a club to play around with a male demon, but after being caught, she hacked him into a bloody mess. It was truly tragic.

"Condolences," Charlotte could only offer as comfort, while beginning to check the minotaur's wounds. They were caused by sharp weapons, and at a glance, there were more than a hundred cuts.

To think this was done by one person was hard to believe. Fortunately, although there were many wounds, none were fatal. The tough hide of the minotaur and his tight, muscular build had protected his bones and internal organs. That's how he was able to run here for help."Doctor, please sew up my wounds quickly. I feel like my blood is running out." The Minotaur calmed down a little and panted.

[Ding! The patient Minotaur has issued you a task: clean and suture 108 wounds! Task completion reward: 1. Copper coin x108.2. Cleaning and suturing experience +108. ]

The system's voice sounded again. Charlotte's eyes lit up and she decisively took the task without showing any strange color on her face. Giving money and experience, such a good thing should certainly not be missed.

The environment in the operating room was too bad, so Charlotte asked the Minotaur to sit directly on the stone bed next to him, and she turned around and took a few medicine bottles and suture supplies from the medicine cabinet.

The Minotaur's injuries looked scary, but not as exaggerated as he said. Some small wounds had coagulated and stopped bleeding, but the half-meter-long gaps on the back were a bit scary. Charlotte was a little nervous when she treated someone for the first time.

But when he saw the bull head with a brass nose ring, he was no longer nervous. He was not a human either!

This bull head was somewhat similar to the old black bull at the animal husbandry station. He was the one who dealt with the trap last time.

As for debridement and suturing, he had accumulated a lot of experience in sterilization surgery.

First, rinse the wound with a cleaning agent to clean the pollutants that entered the wound.

Charlotte didn't know what the cleaning agent prepared by the original body was. The bull grimaced in pain, and his black face turned a little pale.

"Doctor...doctor, is your medicine expired?" The bull asked tremblingly.

Charlotte glanced at the bottle of medicine in her hand and said calmly: "There is still one day."

The bull moved his lips, but still resisted the urge to curse.

After cleaning the wound, Charlotte took another bottle of blue medicine and poured it on the wounds one by one.

A magical scene appeared. The wounds that were still bleeding stopped bleeding at a speed visible to the naked eye. Small wounds quickly scabbed, and large wounds began to grow fresh granulation.

This is a primary hemostatic agent, a special agent for treating external injuries.

Because there were too many wounds, Charlotte used three bottles.

The next step was to suture the wounds that had stopped bleeding.

This step was difficult for Charlotte. The cowhide of this minotaur was not ordinary thick. Charlotte took the sharpest suture needle in the bag and couldn't pierce it with all her strength.

Charlotte:...

Minotaur:...

Charlotte bent down and searched, and took out a hammer and a large suture needle like a steel nail from the toolbox.

"What... what are you going to do!" The minotaur showed fear on his face and his voice trembled slightly.

"Don't worry, just borrow a few small tools, it will be healed soon." Charlotte smiled and stepped forward.

"I... I don't want to be treated anymore... I want to leave..."

"No, since you are here, you must be cured before you can leave. I will not give up on you."

Ding ding dang dang!

The crisp knocking sound echoed in the small clinic, accompanied by the Minotaur's scream of fear.

An hour later.

Charlotte looked at the fine stitches on the Minotaur's body and nodded with satisfaction: "Pretty perfect."

"Is it over?" The Minotaur looked at Charlotte with fear in his eyes. This little human, in his eyes, became very scary at this moment.

"Yes." Charlotte nodded: "Wound cleaning 100 copper coins, hemostatic potion uses three bottles, each bottle costs 100 copper coins, suture 108 wounds, charge 216 copper coins, total: 616 copper coins."

The Minotaur fumbled around on his body, and took out two silver coins and four copper coins after a while.

"That's all I have." The Minotaur put the money on the counter.

"I still need 412 copper coins." Charlotte glanced at the money on the counter and looked at him calmly.

"Let's pay on credit first, I'll pay you next time." The minotaur smiled and started to move towards the door.

Charlotte slammed the door shut and shook her head, "It's a small business, no credit. If you don't have money, you can use other things to pay off the debt, as long as the value is appropriate."

After leaving this door, Charlotte was not sure she could find this minotaur again.

"Other things?" The minotaur looked at Charlotte, his expression struggling and changing several times, sometimes showing a fierce look. "I know what you are thinking, but if you kill me, the next time you get chopped, you may not be able to find a doctor." Charlotte said calmly.

The Minotaur's face changed when his mind was seen through. He reluctantly took out a piece of snow-white horn from the bag and put it on the counter, "Then I'll use my horn to pay the debt. I'll redeem it when I make money." [The broken horn of the Minotaur can be used to make crafts and weapons. It is of medium quality and worth 500 copper coins. ] Charlotte looked at the horn and suddenly a line of notes appeared in her sight. "Deal, I will keep it for you for three days. If you don't redeem it within three days, I will sell it." Charlotte put away the horn and smiled again: "Abyss Clinic, welcome to come next time." "I will definitely come back within three days!" The Minotaur left angrily, and half of the horn looked a little funny. [Ding! The Minotaur's debridement and suturing task is completed, and the reward is: 1. Copper coins x108. 2. Debridement and suturing experience +108. Famous doctor influence: +10] [Overcoming difficult suturing conditions and successfully completing the suturing task triggers a hidden reward: a set of surgical suture needles. Quality: rare. Features: penetration +10, unlimited sutures.] Charlotte first checked the cash received to confirm that the amount was correct, and then picked up the silver iron box that appeared on the counter. Round needles, angle needles, and straight needles. Three surgical suture needles with a silver luster lay quietly in the box. The sharp needle tip was chilling. "Good stuff!" Charlotte's eyes lit up and she reached out to pick up a suture needle. The needle has its own suture thread, and according to the system description, it can be used infinitely, which is a complete magic technology. The most important thing is the penetration feature +10. If I had this kind of artifact when I sutured the Minotaur before, I wouldn't have to use a hammer. I didn't expect that I could get rare equipment when I treated people. This is really a pleasant surprise! After putting away the suture needle, Charlotte mopped the blood-stained floor. "When the clinic is on track, I must recruit a nurse who can perform cleaning magic." Charlotte, who had finally cleaned the clinic, thought to herself while leaning against the counter.

Magic is the first productive force in this world.

Although she lost her memory of medical skills and potions, Charlotte still had a deep memory of magic in her mind. The original owner was once a fourth-level high-level magician. For the injuries of the minotaur before, she used a water-based cleaning spell to clean the wound, and then cast a holy light healing spell, and not even a scar could be seen.

Of course, the fees would be relatively higher. It would take 10,000 to hire a doctor who can perform high-level healing magic.

He originally had a bright future, but he chose to die.

What a sin!

Charlotte sighed in her heart. The road to rebuilding magic has been cut off. He has been deprived of the source of magic and lost his affinity with magic elements.

This is tantamount to the cruelest punishment for a magician.

Of course, healing magic is not omnipotent.

For internal lesions and infections of unknown diseases... magic is often powerless.

At this time, doctors often attribute it to God's arrangement, which cannot be changed.

After the Physician Association was linked to the priesthood, it almost monopolized the medical industry.

The scarce treatment doctors and high treatment costs made it almost impossible for ordinary people to seek medical treatment, while doctors made a lot of money.

Charlotte pushed for surgery and used medicine to treat patients, trying to reform the medical method so that ordinary people could become doctors. This behavior touched the bottom line of the Physician Association, and it was no surprise that she was targeted.

"Your idea is right. Even without magic, doctors can still cure diseases and save people." Charlotte was silent in her heart.

The Physician Association is a hidden threat to him, including why the original body died suddenly, so that he came through, and it is also very necessary to investigate.

He doesn't want to die again inexplicably.

Of course, he doesn't reject magic.

If surgery can be combined with magic, it would be perfect.

Water cleaning can make trauma debridement simple, and wounds that can be healed perfectly can avoid various postoperative infections, which is a boon for women who love beauty.

Charlotte now really wants an assistant who can perform healing magic.

Unfortunately, such a magician is impossible to appear in the Abyss, let alone become an assistant to him, the shame of the medical profession.

The clinic had just been cleaned up when there was a knock on the door.

Charlotte immediately put on a professional smile and opened the door.

Outside the door, a female minotaur was holding a horse-headed orc, and said anxiously: "Doctor, please save my little sweetheart!"
