Chapter 2064
The whole hospital was blown up by Strange's recovery.
No doctor could resist this... They were eager to know what happened to Strange.
In fact, they had been curious about why Strange, a wizard, didn't treat himself. After all, according to the settings in general fantasy works, wizards have many magical magics. Now that magic exists, healing magic is no longer a legend.
"What do you think the human body is? Is it a chair? Just hit it with a hammer twice? You are all medical students, you should know that the human body is the most complex and sophisticated biological machine in the world. About 200 billion red blood cells die every day, and 1 million nerve impulses cross the body every second. After 6 million years of evolution, the human life system has become very complicated. A single-cell organism contains thousands of genes, each gene has 3.1 billion base pairs. This huge and delicate complexity is incredible. Do you think a small spell can change all this? What are you thinking?!!"
The human body is even more complicated than magic.
This is a very counterintuitive common sense. At least the doctors were a little bit unbelievable at the time, but they soon accepted it... If it were someone else, they might still have doubts, but doctors would not, because doctors know how complicated the human body is better than anyone else!
Have you ever thought that your body is actually a universe? Each of your cells is an independent planet. Each of your organs is a complex galaxy, composed of countless cell planets, working together to complete various life activities. Each of your systems is a vast star field, composed of multiple organ galaxies, interconnected to maintain the balance and stability of the body. There are endless mysteries and changes in your body. There are complex signal transmission and interactions between your cells, just like there are complex gravity and mutual influences between matter in the universe. The human body is composed of about 100 trillion cells, which is more than a thousand times more than the number of planets in the Milky Way. In a person's lifetime, he will experience about 10 trillion cell divisions. If a person can live to be 100 years old, he will experience about 300 billion cell divisions every day, which is 3 million cell divisions per second. With such a huge number, if we look at it from the perspective of cells, the human body is like a vast universe. Let us use our imagination further and think of the Big Bang as the growth process of a fertilized egg. Over time, this fertilized egg has undergone countless divisions and growths and eventually became a baby. The universe is constantly expanding, which can also be understood as a growth process. Similarly, each cell in the human body is constantly growing and developing through division and growth. So, from this perspective, is the human body a compressed universe? Or is the universe an expanding human body?
Even now, there are still many unsolved mysteries about the human body.
At present, human beings' understanding of the body is still limited, and there are still many unknown areas to explore. Although humans have made significant progress in the fields of medicine and biology, our understanding of the body is still limited. For example, the complex mechanisms and functions of the immune system are still not fully understood. Faced with the challenges of external bacteria and internal gene mutations, the immune system protects the body through multi-layered protection mechanisms, but its specific working principles and details still need to be further studied. In addition, the mechanisms of disease occurrence and development are not yet fully understood, and the specific causes and treatments of many diseases are still being explored.
And this is the result of countless doctors' research over the years... What about the mages? It is undeniable that they may have studied the mysteries of the human body earlier than modern doctors, but they also have their own huge limitations.
That is, they do not have a system.
Even if they study the human body, it is for the service of magic. Not every magician will devote themselves to this industry. In fact, there are not many magicians who will really study the mysteries of the human body, so they have not formed a system.
Modern medicine is supported by a whole system!
Personal efforts can never replace the system!
So mages can never understand the human body better than doctors!
Since they don't understand, there is naturally no cure, so Kamar-Taj's medical ability is really not as good as that of modern hospitals. Doctors have always been shrouded in the glory of mages and thought that mages are omnipotent. In fact, magic is indeed magical, but it is definitely not omnipotent.
But now Strange's sudden recovery has made doctors doubt this judgment.
You were plugged into the life support system the previous second, and you recovered directly the next second?
"This..." Strange at least has a sense of boundaries. He knows that Kai is not willing to disclose the leakage of dragon bone extract, so he doesn't know how to say this for a while. Say magic? Then what the hell did he say before?
Kai looked at it and said, "It was the artifact I brought from Asgard that helped him recover."
Nonsense, Kai is a professional!
Upon hearing this, all the doctors believed it.
Asgard is Kai's universal excuse. All things that are difficult to say can be used to fool around. Of course, this is not important. The main purpose of telling lies is to make people believe it. However, Asgard has such an advantage. As long as anything is related to it, others will believe it without hesitation.
There is no way. Asgard is too magical, and at the same time it cannot be disproven!
No one can go to Asgard to ask Kai whether what he said is true or not.
The existence of Asgard is not a secret nowadays. There are a lot of speculations and popular science about Asgard on the Internet, although few of them are reliable.
"Mr. Kai, can't you get some new technology from Asgard? For example, the ability to heal instantly before, you know, these technologies can change the entire human society!"
A doctor couldn't help asking.
Although Kai is not as friendly as Spider-Man, he is not too high-handed. At least these doctors are unlikely to speak nonsense in front of Tony Stark, even if Tony is more friendly... In fact, Tony's friendly performance is just his performance. The reality is that most of the doctors who appear in this ward will never be able to get within ten meters of Tony in their lifetime... This is reality. On the contrary, although Kai has a strong personality, the doctors are not afraid of him.
After all, he is a policeman... How can a doctor be afraid of the police? Unless he commits a crime.
So they don't feel too far away.
"Well... how should I put it? At least I don't recommend it. After all, Asgard and our technology are two completely different routes... You know, they even use magic. It's hard to define whether their technology is more about technology or magic. Tony once got some technology, but finally decided to give up promoting it. For us, that thing is not necessarily replicable even if it is placed in the laboratory, let alone popularization."
Kai really didn't lie. Asgard's technology... how should I put it? There is both metaphysics and technology, but they are integrated with each other, and it is difficult to define. At least Tony can't quite understand what is considered magic and what is considered technology. This thing can't be learned at all.
For example, let's talk about Thor's hammer. Tell me, which part of this thing is considered technology?
When the others heard it, they gave up in disappointment.
After all, there was nothing wrong with what Kai said.
"Okay, everyone. The academic discussion ends here. I need to change clothes. And thank you all for your care during this period." Strange rarely spoke human words.
At least the doctors and nurses looked at Strange in surprise.
"Hey! Don't look at me like that, I still know how to be polite!"
No way!
Everyone was saying this in their hearts.
But it must be said that Strange's words made them feel a little more comfortable. If it was according to Strange's previous habits, he would not bother to say such things. According to his Loki, I spent money to go to the hospital! Why should I say thank you!
No doubt, Strange could definitely do it before!
He would treat the doctors here as service personnel, even if he himself was a doctor, because he was different from others, he was the most special one.
So to be honest, these medical staff even felt that Strange had grown up a little bit in their hearts... Very good, the naughty kid learned politeness!
Although he didn't understand why these people looked relieved, Strange still didn't explore it.
He said to Kai: "Although I can keep it secret, does that magical potion really have to be hidden like this?"
He waved his hand and changed his clothes with one click.
He didn't actually have to chase people away at all.
At this time, the people who went out also realized why Strange changed clothes and they came out, but Kai was able to stay inside... Could it be... Although Walmart shopping bags have not become gender in this time and space, gay equality has been done well, and everyone knows what homosexuality is.
So they soon became suspicious.
You know, Strange is from the UK!
Yes, Strange is British, but he just immigrated. This guy now speaks London English.
So... right.
Neither Kai nor Strange expected that people outside would slander him like this... Of course, even if they knew, it didn't matter. At most, they would directly warn against homophobia!
"No, Strange can't benefit mankind." Kai can probably understand Strange's thoughts.
Tony had similar thoughts at the beginning.
Doctors and scientists don't care about human nature. They have a grand dream deep in their hearts, such as changing the world and benefiting all mankind.
So the first reaction to seeing dragon bone extract is to publish it, so that humans can break through lifespan and all disease problems.
"Why?"
"Because it is rare and non-renewable. Do you understand this?" Kai said.
This question reminds me of a song: Ask the heavens for another 500 years! I believe many people have this wish. They are not satisfied with a life span of less than 100 years. They want to live longer, or even live forever. Therefore, there are legends about immortality in many myths!
We need to understand that everything has two sides. It may not be as good as we imagine if everyone can live for more than 500 years. There are even many unexpected problems! That will be a problem faced by the entire human society. It is not just as easy as living to 500 years old. The rapid increase in average age will bring a series of problems like a chain reaction, such as human reproduction, elderly care, resource allocation, environmental protection and other aspects! So, if humans can live to 500 years old, and we don’t have the technology to fly away from the earth to colonize other planets at that time, it will be catastrophic. Various contradictions will be highlighted, especially the contradiction of resource allocation needs. The resources of the earth are far from meeting human needs!
What's more...
"If this kind of limited stuff is made public, it will only become a privilege for a few people. Think about the old men who rule the governments of various countries now. Do you want them to stay in power?"
If the dragon bone extract is really made public, this thing can only become a privilege for a few people!
There is no way. The world has always been ruled by a group of old people, both in ancient and modern times.
This group of people is also the part of people who have the strongest demand for immortality. In order to continue to have power and enjoy it, these people can do anything.
So dragon bone extract does not actually have much positive significance for human society.
"Okay..." Strange's interest has greatly decreased since he heard that dragon bone extract is a scarce and non-renewable item.
He is a top doctor, and in fact, he himself is a kind of privilege... He has a routine when doing surgery, that is, he does not treat the poor!
It's not that he rejects the poor... It's just that he thinks that the skills and knowledge he has worked hard to learn and practice are valuable, and the poor can't afford this price. Except for doing research projects, he will contact some patients with less than ideal economic conditions. Most of his time is spent among the rich and powerful.
There is no way, poor people can't make an appointment with his clinic. Of course, he himself doesn't have much sympathy for the poor... Strange is undoubtedly a good person, but being a good person doesn't mean he can empathize with the poor. Besides, he himself is not a person with rich emotions. He has sympathy, but not much.
So he can understand the fate of dragon bone extract after it was announced.
"Shall we go?"
Strange drew a circle.
Every time he saw the magician of Kamar-Taj cast a spell, Kai felt envious... It was so damn convenient.
"Of course, I also want to eat roast meat!"
"Then let's go to the one in Sham Shui Po together. Wang said that one is more authentic!"
"Why do you, a foreigner, know Sham Shui Po?"
"I tried it. Although I can't tell which one is more authentic, to be honest, roast meat is really delicious."
"Well, I know how to appreciate it." Kai said with a little relief.
If others like your hometown food, you are of course proud of it.
Although I don't know if roast meat is his hometown food.
