Elder brother's garrison

"Hey! That's a good question!"

Just when the atmosphere was so somber, the old doctor's serious expression instantly brightened when he heard Nanxing's question.

"Admiral Nanxing, that's a good question!"

"..."

"Although with our current medical capabilities, we cannot yet remove the aura of the deep sea from the human body, but... besides us, there is still one person in this world who can accomplish this miraculous feat!" The old doctor said excitedly, then turned to Xiaobai, "Admiral Lu Lin! You agree, aren't you!"

The old doctor's gaze could be described as flashing like neon lights.

The light made it hard for Xiaobai to open its eyes.

"We all know that when Admiral Haoding was exploring the eighth chapter, he also experienced a similar incident of deep-sea energy entering his body. According to the current level of medical technology, especially considering the medical environment at that time, Admiral Haoding could be said to have been sentenced to death!" The old doctor said excitedly to Xiaobai. "But Admiral Lu Lin! You created a miracle. Even though it is considered an incurable disease by modern medicine, you were still able to save a life from the clutches of deep-sea energy!"

The old doctor jumped up excitedly as he spoke, making faces and gesturing wildly as he talked to Xiaobai.

"Admiral Lu Lin, look how coincidental this situation is! Although the invasion of deep-sea energy into the body is considered an incurable disease by traditional medicine, you happen to be the only doctor in the world who can treat the invasion of deep-sea energy!"

"You are the only person in this world who can perform a miracle and rescue Admiral Nanxing!"

The old doctor's face flushed with excitement. He jumped up and down, talking to Xiaobai.

Xiao Bai stared blankly at the old doctor.

Xiao Bai turned her head and looked at Nan Xing, who was standing silently to the side.

Nanxing kept her head down, not saying a word, but her hands were clasped together in a knot, her head bowed low. She seemed completely unsurprised by her condition until the old doctor spoke.

Eh?

and many more?

What's going on? This silky smooth feeling, like going with the flow.

And wasn't this old doctor always very serious and kind?

How come you've gotten so excited after just a couple of sentences? It's like the excitement of someone who got a perfect score on an exam or pulled two SSRs in a single ten-pull...

Chapter 2900 That's obviously a newbie.

Xiao Bai raised her forehead, looking at the old doctor in front of her with a complicated expression.

Although the old doctor's unusually enthusiastic reaction, as if it were New Year's Day, left Xiaobai somewhat bewildered, Xiaobai had to admit that what the old doctor had just said was indeed the truth.

Given the current level of medical institutions in human society, it is indeed difficult to deal with the deep-sea atmosphere that invades the human body.

Xiaobai is probably the first, and possibly the last, person in this era to possess the ability to extract deep-sea energy from the human body.

Therefore.

After learning from the old doctor that Admiral Nanxing's body had been invaded by a large amount of deep-sea energy, Xiaobai did not panic too much. The reason she was surprised was not because she was worried that Nanxing's life would not be saved in time, but simply because she was curious about what Nanxing had done to cause such a large amount of deep-sea energy to invade his body.

"Admiral Lu Lin, could you please save Admiral Nan Xing?"

The old doctor stared intently at Xiaobai, his eyes pleading with a deep longing.

"...Grandpa, Sister Nanxing is a very good friend of mine. Even if you didn't ask me, I would still do it..."

As Xiao Bai put down his hand and finished speaking, he also came to Admiral Nanxing's side and gently placed his hand on Admiral Nanxing's stomach.

Xiaobai's network of admirals then unfolded, rapidly infiltrating Admiral Nanxing's body.

Xiao Bai used his mental power to check on Admiral Nanxing's condition.

At this moment, there was indeed a considerable amount of deep-sea energy in Admiral Nanxing's body. Fortunately, although the amount of this deep-sea energy was large, it seemed to be still very "fresh." It had only entered Nanxing's body a few days ago and had not yet had time to damage her body. Moreover, compared to the tragic situation of Admiral Haoding back then, the concentration of deep-sea energy in Admiral Nanxing's body was not so severe as to immediately kill her. It was about one-tenth of the level when Admiral Haoding's body was invaded by deep-sea energy.

This level of deep-sea aura is no longer difficult for a novice to dispel; it's as easy as pinching it off.

Thinking of this, Xiaobai breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, the concentration of deep-sea aura in Admiral Nanxing's body was not as high as when Admiral Haoding fell ill. Otherwise, even if Xiaobai could save Nanxing, Nanxing would probably have turned into a sexy dark-skinned person like Admiral Haoding for a long time to come.

Nanxing Admiral's skin is very white, smooth, and elastic. Xiaobai doesn't want to see such a white older sister turn black.

Xiao Bai put down her hand and turned to look at the expectant old doctor.

The old doctor was staring intently at Xiaobai, and he had somehow produced a notebook in his hand, which he was writing down.

Xiao Bai smiled awkwardly at the old doctor.

"Grandpa? Um... also, I don't know if it's just my imagination, but it seems like you're looking forward to this kind of situation..."

"Of course!" Upon hearing this, the old doctor immediately nodded straightforwardly, gesturing excitedly as he exclaimed, "Admiral Lu Lin, I just used the phrase 'divine craftsmanship' to describe your technique for stripping away the aura of the deep sea! Do you know how valuable that phrase is in our industry!"

"Gold content?"

"Do you know how many years the technology to remove deep-sea energy from the human body has plagued our medical community—five hundred years, a full five hundred years! Ever since humanity emerged from its period of stagnation, countless medical professionals have been working tirelessly to overcome this problem! The technology you possess is the dream of all medical workers in humanity for the past five hundred years!"

"Huh?" Xiaobai was taken aback. "Is it really that exaggerated?"

"Yes, absolutely!" The old doctor nodded rapidly, like pounding garlic. He spread his hands, which were so excited he didn't know what to do with them, and shook the injured notebook. He continued excitedly to Xiaobai, "Admiral Lu Lin, although it's a bit unfair to say this to Admiral Nanxing, I personally feel extremely excited about Admiral Nanxing being infected by the deep-sea aura. Because this means I finally have the opportunity to witness the stripping technique that I've been longing for day and night from you, Admiral Lu Lin!"

Xiao Bai listened to the old doctor's words in a daze.

So, being able to remove the scent of the deep sea is such an amazing thing?

—Just witnessing this technology is enough to make a highly respected old doctor put aside his airs and jump up excitedly on the spot?

"Since my skills are so amazing, why hasn't anyone told me about this before..." Xiao Bai asked the old doctor, puzzled.

"Sigh." Hearing Xiaobai's question, the old doctor also sighed deeply. "Admiral Lu Lin, you don't know, the level of protection the Admiral's Guild provides for you is ridiculously tight. Do you think I didn't apply to the Admiral's Guild for academic exchanges with you before... but all those requests were rejected."

"Ah...why?"

"Compared to the doctor, the Admiral's Guild seems to prefer you to be the Admiral," the old doctor said regretfully. "After my requests were rejected several times, the Admiral's Headquarters even issued me a gag order, forbidding me from discussing this topic again."

"...So, is it okay that we just talked about this?"

"Oh, that's alright. After all, it was Admiral Nanxing who asked me the question first." The old doctor looked at Nanxing and gave him a satisfied smile. "Since the patient asked the question first, it is my duty as a doctor to give the patient the most accurate advice. If we expand on the topic a little after it has started, that's certainly not against the rules."

"I see."

Xiao Bai looked at the old doctor and smiled helplessly.

Only then did Xiaobai finally understand why the old doctor had suddenly become so excited...

So this old doctor had been placed under a gag order...

Xiao Bai finally understood why an elderly man with white hair always addressed him as "you" (您).

"Admiral Lu Lin, so... regarding Admiral Nan Xing... what do you think..." The old doctor asked the novice with the utmost care, like a novice apprentice seeking the master's opinion.

"Sister Nanxing? Sister Nanxing is alright for now—and Grandpa, please don't address me with such formalities. I'm only eighteen. Just call me by my name, or you're fine." Xiaobai shook his head, somewhat amused, and then continued, "Well... I just checked Sister Nanxing's body. I found that although there's a lot of deep-sea energy in her body, it's not to a dangerous degree. It won't endanger her life for now—but even so, if this deep-sea energy stays in Sister Nanxing's body, she'll probably be hospitalized within a few days. So for Sister Nanxing's health, it really needs to be exorcised immediately."

"Oh! Excuse me, may I listen in? May I observe from the sidelines?" the old doctor exclaimed. "Don't worry, I certainly won't disturb you!"

“…Um…” Xiaobai looked at the enthusiastic old doctor, thought for a while, and then glanced at Nanxing beside her with a complicated expression. “Sister Nanxing, you heard it too. For your health, we must immediately remove the deep-sea aura from your body, and it seems that only I can do this in the world.”

"Mm." Nanxing nodded to Xiaobai, her gaze calm.

"...So, can I save you?" Xiaobai asked.

“I believe you,” Nanxing said.

“Sister Nanxing, I wonder if Admiral Haoding has told you the specific method for removing the deep-sea aura…” Xiaobai thought for a while and said to Nanxing, “Well… actually, in order to remove the deep-sea aura from your body, I will inevitably come into contact with your body during the process… and you will have to take off your clothes.”

"I'll take it off," Admiral Nanxing replied instantly.

"Then do you allow this old man to watch?" Xiaobai asked hesitantly.

This is exactly the question Xiaobai wanted to ask.

Although the old doctor looked to be in his sixties or seventies, Nanxing Admiral was still just a girl. Xiaobai was worried that Nanxing Admiral might be very concerned about strangers seeing her body.

If Admiral Nanxing strongly resists, then Xiaobai will have no way to agree to the old doctor's request to observe.

"..." Admiral Nanxing paused for a moment, then looked up at the old doctor.

The atmosphere was quiet for a moment.

Admiral Nanxing withdrew his gaze and looked at Xiaobai.

"How far should you strip?"

"Uh... I mean, just enough to show some skin. Like wearing only shorts and a shirt?" Xiaobai tentatively asked.

"Hmm...that's fine too." Admiral Nanxing nodded slowly to Xiaobai and said, "No problem."

"Wuhu! That's great!"

As soon as Admiral Nanxing finished speaking, the old doctor cheered excitedly.

"Admiral Lu Lin, please feel free to ask. What kind of treatment setup is needed for the deep-sea aura removal surgery? Although this is not the Central Hospital, it is still the private hospital of the Eighth Chapter Admiral's Guild. I dare not say much else, but at least we will have rooms like sterile rooms, as well as world-class equipment and instruments! Please just tell us what to do!"

“It doesn’t have to be that high-end… Just give me any room.” Xiaobai shook her head. After thinking for a while, she said to the old doctor, “Hmm… It must be quite troublesome to prepare the rooms here in the private hospital, right? Then just have the Admiral’s Guild find me any empty room with a bed on the staff housing floor that’s comfortable to lie in.”

Chapter 2901 This is the suppressive power of Nanxing

"Uh... just one room is enough?" The old doctor froze after hearing Xiaobai's words. "Where are the instruments? Where are the assistants? And the sterilization..."

“The deep-sea aura stripping surgery is not a routine surgery, and I don’t need that much,” Xiaobai said to the old doctor. “Actually, you can have me do it for Sister Nanxing right here, but Sister Nanxing is a girl after all, and I still want her to have the surgery in a comfortable and relaxing environment.”

"Isn't this a routine surgery..." the old doctor muttered to himself. He nodded to Xiaobai, "Then, Admiral Lu Lin, please wait a moment, I'll go out and find someone to arrange it."

After finishing his sentence, the old doctor quickly put away his notebook, pushed open the door, and left the room.

For a moment, only Xiaobai and Nanxing remained in the room.

Xiaobai sighed and glanced helplessly at Nanxing beside her.

“Sister Nanxing, you really don’t take care of your health.” Seeing that no one was around, Xiaobai took Admiral Nanxing’s hand and said to her, “Even I know that the first lesson of the Admiral’s course at the Naval Academy is to teach students how to protect themselves in the environment of deep-sea aura and prevent the deep-sea aura from invading their bodies, right? This time, you were invaded by deep-sea aura, and in such a large amount. This can’t be explained by a ‘mistake’. I’m not joking. If I hadn’t been able to drive away the deep-sea aura, Sister Nanxing, you might really be in the hospital waiting to die in a few days.”

“…I’m sorry.” Nanxing felt Xiaobai’s palm, she gently squeezed Xiaobai’s hand and said softly.

"It's too late to apologize now. I hope you can be more careful in the future to avoid this happening again," Xiaobai said to Nanxing. "After all, even I can't always be by your side."

"Mm." Nanxing nodded.

Nanxing's attitude highlighted his sincerity.

Seeing Nanxing so sincerely admit her mistake, Xiaobai sighed helplessly and gently took her hand as they left the consultation room.

Outside the reception room and in the corridor, none of the top ten admirals had left.

As soon as they saw Xiaobai and Nanxing come out, the top ten admirals quickly approached.

"Admiral Lu Lin, Admiral Nan Xing, you're finally out!" Admiral Hao Ding stepped forward with concern and asked Xiao Bai and Nan Xing, "What happened inside just now? I saw that old man leave in a hurry."

“Little cuties, he kept you in the room, did he say something terrible?” Admiral Lian and Admiral Ling also looked concerned.

Xiao Bai glanced at the admirals who had come forward, then looked at Duan Shuiliu, who stood silently to the side, staring intently at him.

"...It's nothing." Xiaobai thought for a moment, then smiled at the admirals and said, "That old man just had something he wanted me and Sister Nanxing to help with. Sister Nanxing and I are perfectly healthy."

"Oh? I see! Hahahaha!" Hearing Xiaobai's words, Admiral Haoding laughed with relief. "Looks like it was a false alarm!"

The others breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

“Yes… well, Nanxing and I are going out to visit that old man.” Xiaobai pointed in the direction of the elevator and said to everyone, “Admiral Haoding, you can take this opportunity to visit Admiral Zhao Kuo.”

"Hmm! That makes a lot of sense!" Admiral Haoding smiled and gave a thumbs up. "Then Admiral Lu Lin and Admiral Nan Xing, you can go ahead with peace of mind! The rest of us will go visit Admiral Zhao Kuo first!"

Xiao Bai smiled and waved to the top ten admirals, watching them head towards the direction of Admiral Zhao Kuo's ward.

Xiao Bai breathed a sigh of relief and subconsciously tugged at Nan Xing's hand.

Xiao Bai turned her head to look at Nan Xing.

Nanxing was also watching Xiaobai at that moment.

"It's best not to tell the other admirals about this, right?" Xiaobai smiled at Nanxing. "It will make them worry."

"Mm." Nanxing nodded.

Xiaobai and Nanxing left in the opposite direction from the top ten admirals.

Just as Xiaobai and Nanxing turned around, Duan Shuiliu, the last of the top ten admirals, stopped in her tracks. She turned around and calmly watched Xiaobai and Nanxing's departing figures.

Duan Shuiliu's eyes were like a deep lake, quiet and reserved.

……

Xiaobai and Nanxing arrived at the elevator.

At the elevator entrance, the old doctor was making a phone call at the front desk's landline.

"That's right, that's right, it's the accommodation floor. Arrange a double room for Admiral Lu Lin... single or double? There's no particular requirement, right? Hmm... but try to go for the higher-end option. If there are double rooms available, arrange a double room. Also, the room must be spacious and comfortable. Admiral Lu Lin said so herself. And remember, the environment must be... oh yes, yes, yes!" The old doctor gripped the handle of the landline and gave a long speech to the person on the other end before hanging up the phone with a sigh of relief and turning his head away.
