Chapter 546 Use Magic to Perform Instant Dialysis?

Gretel looked at him speechlessly. Choose the second one? Without asking anything, you just choose the second one?

What if I shouted now, "Come here, prepare the operating room, carry this guy for amputation"? Did you choose too?

but……

It's a pity that this cannot be the case. First of all, because of medical ethics and trust between both parties, amputation cannot be done hastily without informing and obtaining consent; secondly, for gout or something like that, even amputation will not solve the problem!

High uric acid will still circulate in the blood, will still be deposited in the joints, and will still affect the kidneys.

Grete sighed, fulfilled the duties of a doctor, and explained to Viscount Calderon:

"I'm considering trying my magic..."

Viscount Cadren's pupils immediately dilated. Magic, magic! No damage, no pain, immediate results!

If a disease can be solved by magic, then use magic decisively. Why use medicine? Only those untouchables who cannot afford the money will choose to use medication!

"That's great! Come right away! - Even if the effect is not good enough, I will pay you according to the price of the magic!"

Gretel smiled. He was about to continue talking when a head suddenly poked his head in at the door:

"What magic?"

Grete waved to the person coming: "Brother Matthew, you are here too! Well, on this patient, I plan to try the detoxification technique..."

Antidote, a universal second-level divine spell for priests. The Order of the God of Nature, the Temple of the God of War, and the Temple of the Goddess of Spring all have this magic.

When Gretel first crossed over, Priest Donald of the Temple of the Spring Goddess used detoxification to try to treat children with laryngeal edema - although it was not symptomatic and had no effect.

"Antitoxicity?"

"Antitoxicity?!"

two voices asked at the same time. Pastor Matthew was surprised and a little confused. He approached the two of them and glanced at Viscount Cadren's red and swollen thumb:

"Isn't this gout? Gout can also be treated with detoxification?"

He pondered for a moment, murmured a few words, and his fingertips immediately shot out a light green light. From top to bottom, it swept across Viscount Cadren——

Nothing happened.

The patient's pain showed no signs of relief.

The only reaction to this magical technique was that Viscount Cadren jumped up in fear:

"I'm poisoned?! Who? Who poisoned me? - Ouch, it hurts! The antidote doesn't work?! Is it some kind of rare poison? Am I going to die?!"

He jumped up suddenly, feeling a sharp pain, and fell down on the chair again. Chatting endlessly, spewing out a stream of words like a cannon. Grete was angry and funny:

"I didn't say you were poisoned! I just had an idea. With your symptoms, you can try detoxification. Of course, in order to confirm that the magical treatment is effective, I need to take a little blood from you before and after the operation. Every time About 1 ml per time..."

"But isn't this useless?"

"His magic has no effect, which means that my magic must have no effect? ​​- Do you want to try? If you don't want to try, I will get you medicine right away!"

Viscount Calderon muttered and whispered. Grete persuaded him again and again, using soft and hard tactics, and finally succeeded in convincing him to withdraw one milliliter of blood from his brachial vein. The spirit of the contract rushed in, and in a moment, a lot of messages were sent frantically:

"So sour! So sour! So sour, so sour, so sour..."

Grete tried to comfort it and remember the smell. Although they are all sour, their tastes are also different:

High uric acid in gout, acetoacetate, β-hydroxybutyric acid and acetone in ketoacidosis, and high carbonic acid concentration in respiratory acidosis are reflected in the blood differently. He doesn't have the ability to distinguish it with his body, but it's strange that the little snake can actually taste it...

There is no analyzer, only the hard-working little snake memorizes by rote.

Grete concentrated his mind, called up the spell model in his mind, and prepared to launch the detoxification spell. The principle of detoxification is to remove certain toxic substances from the human body so that the body can return to normal. This magic can deal with most of the poisons known to the public:

Lead, mercury, arsenic, datura, aconite, belladonna, nux vomica...

But unfortunately, there is no cure for gout. Grete guessed that the big man who created this magic had no idea that high uric acid = gout. Without cognition, there is no corresponding target in the magic.

Well, so uric acid…

Grete recalled it intently. Uric acid, with the molecular formula C5H4N4O3, is slightly soluble in water, soluble in hot concentrated sulfuric acid, glycerol, alkali solution, sodium acetate and sodium phosphate solutions, and insoluble in alcohol and ether. Easy to form crystals, the appearance is white crystals...

Molecular formulas and overview diagrams slowly unfolded in his mind. Adding this information to the magical configuration should be able to lock it. The next step is to activate the divine spell to eliminate its existence.

So, what are the consequences of sweeping them all away at once?

should be no problem. Uric acid is an end product of metabolism, not a nutrient. Removing all the urea at one time is equivalent to a dialysis session...

Then, let’s do it!

The light blooms. Gretel's fingertips swept the white light from top to bottom across Viscount Cadren's body, lingering for a long time on the helix and every joint of the body, especially the knee joints, ankle joints and the first joint of the big toes of both feet, and shot back and forth:

These places are tophi, where urate crystals are easily deposited. Take advantage of the detoxification technique and try to remove it?

Unlike the antidote spell in Pastor Matthew's hands, Gretel's magical spell lasted for nearly a minute. The light disappeared. Viscount Cadren bent down, pinched his toes and ankles, with a surprised look on his face:

"It doesn't hurt anymore! It really doesn't hurt anymore! Hey, your magic is really effective! They are all detoxification techniques, so why is yours so effective..."

He was overjoyed and took out his wallet. Gretel stretched out his hand to block:

"Wait! As promised, let me draw blood first!"

"Ah... can you not smoke... I will pay double the treatment fee. Isn't it okay to double it?"

For second-level divine spells, the casting cost is basically fixed, which is equivalent to a bottle of [Cure Moderate Injury] potion—that is, 300 gold coins. Although it was a bit distressing to double the amount, for the sake of the therapeutic effect, Viscount Cadren still felt that the money was well deserved.

Didn't you notice that another priest of the God of Nature was also level 5, and the same spell had no effect at all?

"That won't work! It's just how much you say it will be. If you say you want to draw blood, you must draw blood! If you don't keep your trust, I won't treat you in the future!"

Grete used hard and soft tactics, and finally got what he wanted, successfully getting a ml of blood. The little snake reluctantly crawled in slowly, and soon it was circling up and down the test tube, dancing happily:

"La la la la~~~~La la la la~~~~Not sour, not at all, and a little sweet..."

Wait, Your Excellency Viscount, you don’t still have diabetes, do you? Let the little snake taste the urine sugar later. I wonder if it will fall out with me...
