Doctor Mie, upon hearing Rek's words, was startled and abruptly stood up from the Chair, hurrying to the Surgical Table in front of Rek. She asked, "What? You said you brought back three Headless Abominations? The Alien Species you killed outside the Dark Space Academy Fortress only has heads? Can these heads be attached to the bodies of Headless Humanoid Aberrations?"
Seeing Doctor Mie's astonished expression, Rek felt it was obvious and slowly replied to Master Mie, "This time when I went outside the Fortress, I discovered a massive Worm Form Alien Species moving along with the Academy Fortress beneath the Sand.
This Death Worm Variant surprisingly had three head-only Alien Species hanging from it.
Whether these three heads can be attached to the Academy's existing three Headless Humanoid Aberrations will require your dissection analysis. Doctor Mie, I hope it's not too much to call you here to my Surgical Table for this discovery. Of course, according to the regulations of the Super Soldier Academy, I can exchange the bodies of the Alien Species I brought back for equivalent Rewards.
I barely managed to restrain myself from activating my Genetic Mech's devouring ability to consume all three heads.
I only managed to bring back two bloody heads. You should dissect the heads first, and then we can discuss what Reward I should receive."
Master Mie felt even more convinced that those three heads belonged to Headless Abominations; otherwise, it would be too coincidental for the Academy to capture three headless living Alien Species while a large Worm Form Alien Species was hiding beneath the Fortress with three heads following it.
Doctor Mie sensed there might be some issues here; how could a Worm Form Alien Species carry head-shaped Alien Species and move without conflict? This was completely different from the previous judgments made by the Star Alliance Military regarding Alien Species.
According to the military's original assessment, Alien Species in Dark Space had territorial disputes due to their different forms. When different types of Alien Species encountered each other, they would usually fight rather than cooperate against humans. The Alien Species lacked such high intelligence and were not bound by or commanded by other forms of Alien Species. The cooperation between these two forms of Alien Species that Rek discovered against humans was a significant finding that completely overturned the Star Alliance Military's previous judgments about Alien Species.
"Don't mention what you experienced outside the Fortress today to anyone else. I'll go dissect and compare the heads you brought back.
Also, I need to contact Yin Yang Principal; I feel that what happened this time is not simple and requires that old fellow's final judgment.
Rest assured, once Yin Yang Principal arrives, if these Headless Abomination bodies and heads are indeed one entity as you said, your Reward will only increase." After thinking for more than ten seconds, Doctor Mie said solemnly to Rek.
"I don't mind; you handle your business. As long as you give me enough Reward, I won't leak a word." Rek smiled as he replied.
The Moon Goddess nearby couldn't help but chuckle.
"Moon Goddess, stay here with Rek and don't let anyone else in. No, Moon Goddess, you go out now and tell Rek's mentor Maya and his classmates waiting in the corridor to leave. Just say that Rek is severely injured and under rescue; results won't be available until tomorrow." Doctor Mie instructed the Moon Goddess beside her.
Moon Goddess made a face and nodded in agreement, then got up and pushed open the door to the Emergency Room and walked out.
As soon as she stepped out of the Emergency Room, Maya hurriedly approached Moon Goddess and asked, “How is Rek? Is there no danger to his life?”
“We are doing everything we can to save him. Rek is currently not in life-threatening condition. However, he has sustained serious injuries and is still undergoing emergency treatment, which will require a long surgical procedure.
The surgery will not be completed until tomorrow at the earliest. You should leave the medical room for now; staying here won’t help.
I will notify you as soon as Rek’s surgery is over tomorrow,” Moon Goddess said to Master Muya and Alice with practiced ease.
Upon hearing Moon Goddess’s words, Alice clearly sensed that something was wrong, but she didn’t ask further and prepared to leave.
“Why don’t I stay here and wait?” Master Muya suggested.
“Under normal circumstances, outsiders are not allowed to linger in the corridor of the medical room at night. Moreover, your presence here would only distract our medical staff and would not help with saving Rek.
Master Muya, I understand your concern for your student; Rek is also my friend. The medical room will do everything possible to save every patient and Injured.
For this surgery, the lead surgeon is Doctor Mie, the best physician in the medical room. You can rest assured.
I will inform you immediately once the surgery is completed and we have results,” Moon Goddess said in an authoritative tone. Having been a doctor in the Ancient Capital for many years and having interned in the medical room for over a month, she was now very adept at handling conversations with patients and their concerned friends or teachers.
Hearing Moon Goddess’s words, Maya nodded as well and decided to leave first.
After watching Maya and Alice exit the medical room corridor, Moon Goddess returned to the cafeteria to prepare a hearty dinner for Rek, packing it in a thermal container to bring back to the operating room.
“It’s still my dear Moon Goddess who cares about me. I didn’t get to eat lunch earlier, and now I’m really hungry,” Rek said happily as he saw Moon Goddess enter with the thermal container. He jumped off the bed, took the food from her hands, and began to eat eagerly.
While pouring a cup of warm water for Rek, Moon Goddess gently said, “You scared me this afternoon; you must not take such risks again!”
"I already told you, the blood that was stuck on my Genetic Mech before was from an Alien Species. Although I looked a bit worse for wear this afternoon, I wasn't actually injured. I know my limits, so don't worry, I'm not that easy to kill," Rek said while eating, trying to comfort the Moon Goddess beside him.
"Can you please stop fighting with Alien Species in the future? They are very dangerous!" the Moon Goddess tried to ask Rek.
Hearing her words, Rek paused for a moment. After thinking for a few seconds, he helplessly replied, "Some things can't be avoided just because you want to. What I did today was only to ensure we can live better in the future. You might not understand it now, but you'll probably get it later."
"Hmph! You always have so many reasons and excuses! By the way, Rek, I used medical equipment combined with my Ancient Medicine to thoroughly check my body, and I really found something wrong. There seems to be a small object in my brain that doesn't belong to the brain tissue. It's very tiny, and normal medical examination equipment can't detect it.
I only discovered it through a deep specialized examination using brain detection medical equipment combined with Ancient Medicine," the Moon Goddess said softly to Rek.
"Can it be removed?" Rek asked tentatively.
"It should be possible, but it requires a very skilled neurosurgeon. I estimated that even if the best neurosurgeon in the Star Alliance were to perform this surgery with all the highest-grade surgical instruments available, there would only be a thirty percent chance of success.
Moreover, it's necessary to first deactivate this small object in my brain tissue. If it's not deactivated, this small object is integrated with the hippocampus in my brain while it's operational and cannot be removed at all.
Forcibly removing it would severely injure my brain and turn me into an idiot; at best, I would lose all my memories," the Moon Goddess said with some concern.
