Chapter 1158 The First Attrition
Because the players had been to the medical center in Pripyat before, the doctor also took this opportunity to collect a batch of medicines that may be used in the future, not only radiation protection medicines such as potassium iodide, but also some anti-inflammatory drugs and Tranquilizers, now these drugs finally come in handy.
About twenty minutes later, the doctor, who was sweating profusely, walked out of the room, leaving only two women, Kui Ye and Besonova, taking care of the coconut.
"How is it?" Zhang Heng asked.
"Not very optimistic." The doctor took a cigarette from the maintenance man's hand and took two puffs. "Her health has deteriorated faster than I expected. Her body temperature is currently maintained at about 38 to 39. She is losing her hair. Ulcers, body swelling...but these are really minor things, the real problem is that the radiation is destroying her immune system, and then any bacteria floating in the air could be fatal to her."
The doctor paused here and asked Zhang Heng, "Did you come into contact with any radioactive sources when you went back this time?"
"There is radiation everywhere in the nuclear power plant, but we met someone from the Ministry of Civil Defense there, and he had a detector. We followed him and tried to avoid places with high radiation."
"Is that so? It may be that the amount of radiation accumulated in her body has been very large. Anyway, her current condition is very bad. I just found a way to do some physical cooling for her, and also applied some on her festering wounds. Ointment, but this only made her feel better. From a doctor's point of view, I suggested sending her to the hospital, because considering the future development of her condition, she will need a sterile ward and, if necessary, a bone marrow transplant. , this can’t save her life, but it can keep her alive longer, and with luck, she may be able to survive until we complete the main mission.”
"Wait a minute," the maintenance man said, "We want to send her to the hospital? But in this case, who will be the translator and communicate with the Ukrainian woman?"
"Given Coconut's current physical condition, we might be able to have a chat with her and ask her to lend us the other earring first, and then return it to her after completing the main mission." Zhang Heng said, and then he turned to ask the doctor , "Is she awake now and can she talk?"
The doctor nodded, "She is still conscious, but her lips are ulcerated and the skin is peeling off. It will probably be painful to talk, so if you want to talk, it is best to shorten the time."
At this time, the young man who was defeated also interrupted, "Will we...be like this in the future?"
He also came out of the room after hearing the noise, and saw Zhang Heng and others standing in the corridor, and said curiously.
"Yes, it's very possible, but logically it shouldn't develop so fast," the doctor's expression became more serious than ever before, "I don't know if it's the design of the copy or something else. I previously estimated that we still have a week to take action. , but now it seems that I may have been a little too optimistic, and we need to complete the main mission as soon as possible.”
"You don't need to tell me, I want to leave this hellish place as soon as possible." The maintenance man complained.
Zhang Heng said nothing more and was about to walk into the house when he saw Master Kui walking out. Not only that, she also held an earring in her hand.
"Have you already got it? So fast!" The maintenance man was surprised. "We were just discussing this matter again. How did you convince the guy who asked for trouble to hand over the earrings? And this thing is not in her Is it in the stomach? How did you take it out?"
"What are you thinking about? How could it be in the stomach?" the doctor said. "Coconut has been vomiting before. If the earrings were in her stomach, they would have been vomited out. Even if they were not vomited out, they might have entered the sewer along with the excrement. , this prop is so important to her, how could she really swallow it in one gulp? She just used some small tricks to show her attitude in the car. "
"You saw it but didn't tell us?" the maintenance man said dissatisfied. However, when he looked at the faces of Zhang Heng and the young boy who had defeated him, he found that their expressions had not changed much. The maintenance man was immediately startled, " No, am I the only one who doesn’t know? But didn’t you agree to her request at that time? "
The maintenance man asked Zhang Heng.
"Yes, she was very excited at the time, and I just needed a translator. It doesn't matter who takes the role. Of course, there is no need to stimulate her any more." Zhang Heng explained.
The boy who was defeated on the other side also comforted the maintenance man, "You said it's not that you're the only one who doesn't know. The mouse probably didn't notice it, but I think he seems to like coconut a little bit. It may be because hormones have changed his brain. Slow."
"…………"
"In short, Coconut now understands that her physical condition can no longer serve as the team's translator. She is not unreasonable, so she agreed to lend [Whispers] to us first." Kui Ye said, "But there are There is a condition. Among all the players, she only trusts the mouse, so she hopes that [Whisper] can be placed in the hands of the mouse. Of course, she has handed over the [Whisper] now, and there is nothing we can do if we don’t agree with her."
"I don't have any objections." Zhang Heng said, "As I said before, I just need a translator. It doesn't matter who does it."
"I support idols unconditionally." The boy who was defeated quickly expressed his stance, followed by the doctor who nodded.
The maintenance worker saw that everyone's eyes were on him and muttered, "Why, do I look like a bad guy? I just don't like her defensive attitude towards other players. This dungeon is a single-player collaboration, at least. Before the main mission is completed, everyone should stick together instead of being wary of each other, right?"
"You're right," the young man Zhanfu nodded, "so in order to eliminate the little unpleasantness between you two, I will trouble you to take her to the hospital."
"I want to send her away, why?"
"Of course it's because the car keys are with you. Don't worry, I, Mouse and Besonova will also go with you. At least they will help her go through the admission procedures."
The doctor also said at this time, "You'd better go there as soon as possible. Pripyat Medical Center doesn't have much experience in treating radiation sickness. It is estimated that they will send the injured together to a large hospital in Moscow, where there are more medical resources." It would be better, whether it’s a professional doctor or a sterile ward or something, if it’s timely enough, the coconut can catch that flight.”
"It's really troublesome." Although the maintenance man said this, he finally gave in and went downstairs to start the car.
