I Am God!

Witch Doctor's House.

Under the high hut, a series of stone houses appeared.

From the six lonely witch doctors at the beginning, dozens of witch doctor apprentices gradually appeared here.

The apprentices built a castle building on the other side of the drawbridge, which they called the Medical Keep.

They would take turns going out to see people.

On weekdays, their tasks include helping witch doctors conduct experiments, dissecting human bodies or other animals, transcribing books, taking care of experimental animals, making anatomy dolls, teaching new apprentices, etc.

Life here is not easy, it is very busy.

Dozens of apprentices did not stay here forever. Some left when they felt they had learned enough and returned to their hometown to become a qualified doctor and enjoy success and fame.

Some people want to learn more advanced knowledge, so they stay.

The apprentices came and went.

The six witch doctors did not try to persuade anyone to stay, but openly allowed everyone to stay or stay.

Witch doctors spend more time studying how to discover new species, and even talk about creating new life.

From time to time, witch doctors can be seen returning from the outside, bringing back newly discovered species to record.

This also caused the six witch doctors to spend a lot of time traveling around, rarely gathering together.

On this day, the apprentice who went out to treat illnesses returned from the Medical Fort.

Lamps were lit in the dark night, and the apprentices gathered together.

"There are more and more people on the other side of the bridge, and it's almost like a small town." This apprentice had snacks bought from outside. He thought it was pretty good, and not everyone likes to live in a completely empty city. Inhabited wilderness.

"Many people come here to treat illnesses. They stay in the house outside to recuperate while they are being treated. After they recover, they stay here directly." Someone explained the reason to the new apprentice.

"Also, the war outside is not over yet. Recently, many people have come to us not to seek medical treatment, but to flee." An apprentice who had just returned said with some sigh.

"Escape to such a remote wilderness?" This was an apprentice who had not stepped outside for a long time and was immersed in medical skills. He was a little surprised when he heard the news.

"The war is so terrible! Those soldiers go around robbing and killing everyone they see. They are no different from bandits." The apprentice explained.

"A war also broke out in my hometown. I don't know what's going on now." Someone in the crowd said worriedly.

Lester is the one in the middle of the crowd. He is the first apprentice to come to the witch doctor's house. He is also the one with the best medical skills among them and the most trusted by the six witch doctors.

Among these apprentices, Lester has a very high prestige, and he will handle some important matters on behalf of the witch doctor.

On weekdays, he would take advantage of this chat moment to tell everyone some theoretical knowledge, allowing everyone to ask him questions and then answer them.

But today he was silent.

No one dared to disturb him. Everyone saw that he was in a bad mood.

He held a letter in his hand, a letter from his hometown.

His relatives wrote to him telling him that war might break out in Cross City soon.

The legions from the kingdom and the armies of several great lords are about to start a decisive battle in this area. Tens of thousands of soldiers, priests, and monsters have begun to fight among the dozens of cities, towns, and villages to eradicate each other. stronghold.

Cross City is the most important city among them. It is currently in the hands of the rebels. His Majesty the King will never give up.

war.

Unavoidable.

No matter what, the civilians in the city cannot be unaffected, and it is even said that they are usually the ones who suffer the most harm.

"War!"

Lester didn't understand that they were trying every possible means to save people, while someone was trying every means to kill people.

How could there be such a strange thing in this world?

The next day, he asked the witch doctor named Left Hand while conducting an experiment.

"Master Witch Doctor."

"Why are you doing so many experiments?"

"We seem to have no direction and are just trying aimlessly."

The witch doctor told Lester: "We were born to find the secret of life, and the secret of life does not appear out of thin air, it exists in life."

"Existing in those undiscovered lives, new lives."

Lester asked: "So what is the meaning of life?"

Witch Doctor: "We're still looking."

Lester is really hard to understand: "Looking for something that I don't know what it is, then what is its significance? What can it bring us?"

Witch Doctor: "It's precisely because you don't know that you have to look for it."

"As for what it can bring, that's another matter."

"It's our mission to find it."

Lester doesn't care about the meaning of life. He just wants to learn the medical knowledge he wants here, and then return to his hometown to become a doctor who treats diseases and saves lives.

There is no need to helplessly watch patients in agony, and there is no need to be blocked at the door and yelled at them as liars.

There is no need to fail due to lack of skills and knowledge and be called a killer doctor.

Of course, he also has some more ambitious goals.

Become a great physician who founded medicine, and then pass on your knowledge and discoveries, so that the name of physician is no longer associated with liars, but becomes a profession that is truly respected.

He wanted to be remembered.

He suddenly thought of the statue he saw when passing by Anhuo City.

Statue of Saint Stan Tito.

"perhaps."

"At that time, someone will also erect such a statue for me, so that everyone passing through Cross City can see me."

"They will bow before my statue and remember my name for generations to come."

It was also at this moment that Lester had the idea of ​​going home.

He has learned everything he can learn, and the remaining things that cannot be learned involve extraordinary power.

but.

He was a little unwilling.

Just go back like this?

Although he has learned a lot of medical skills, he has a very deep understanding of the structure of the human body.

He knew how to treat various injuries, perform operations to treat many diseases, and knew how to cultivate several plants to heal wounds and accelerate the effect of treatment.

But, so what?

Having seen the witch doctor's methods of mastering life, he felt that these powers were so shallow.

For many truly serious diseases and organ-threatening injuries, they were still helpless and needed to rely on the power of witch doctors to treat them.

He knew clearly what caused death, but there was nothing he could do about it.

They studied under witch doctors and called themselves witch doctor apprentices.

But not a witch doctor.

Because the most powerful thing about witch doctors is that they can create elixirs that can treat various diseases, and they can create various organs through strange power.

Lester asked the medicine man many times, "How can I have such power?"

The witch doctors would simply reply: "You can't learn."

He didn't know if this was true, or if it was just the witch doctor's reluctance to impart that almost miraculous power.

Just as he was deep in thought, the witch doctor suddenly said to Lester: "Go to the trilobite breeding room and catch ten trilobites."

Lester nodded: "Okay, Lord Witch Doctor."

After saying that, he walked out of the three-story building of the witch doctor's house and walked through the streets where the apprentices lived.

He came outside into the mist.

The fog blocked the sun in the sky, making it seem a bit dark and humid here.

There are various buildings in the mist, and you can still see faint shadows in the distance.

That's the outer layer of the witch doctor's house, the towering wall.

"hiss!"

"Boom!"

Before I even entered, I heard the subtle sounds of bugs, as well as the sound of crawling, hitting, and knocking on the glass.

He walked into a building with the sign of Trilobite Breeding Room, which was filled with tall glass cabinets.

Inside the glass is sea water, and there are large and small trilobites swimming in the water.

Different glass cabinets also have labels hung with coarse fabrics to mark the differences between these trilobites.

This is an ordinary life collection and cultivation room. In addition, there is a modified life cultivation room and the most rigorous extraordinary laboratory.

The ordinary life cultivation room is a collection of ordinary life forms from various places, most of which evolved naturally.

Just by looking at the ceramic plaques hanging on the doors around the trilobite culture room, you can see that there are worms, trilobites, cupworms and other creatures, as well as some ancient beetles and crinoids, all of which are used as specimens. Or test materials are placed here.

Apprentices will help take care of these monsters and lives created by doctors on a daily basis.

The modified life feeding room is different. It is the creation of the witch doctor after conducting life experiments.

However, most of them are extremely closely related to other creatures in nature, and many of them are not even new species at all, but have undergone some strange changes.

Lester had seen huge blood-sucking worms that grew to more than ten meters long. The witch doctors didn't know what methods they used to make these things grow to huge sizes.

We also saw molluscs with various strange organs, bugs with legs that could walk on land, and even a man-eating plant that could swallow a clover in its mouth.

You can only enter here with the permission of the witch doctor, because it is indeed dangerous.

As for the extraordinary laboratory, other people are strictly prohibited from entering.

Because even if the monsters there are imprisoned, you can hear their voices and be glanced at by them.

They may be controlled or lose their lives.

Holding the jar containing trilobites, Lester arrived at the witch doctor's three-story building, only to find that the witch doctor named Left Hand was already waiting there.

"You follow me."

"The other witch doctors are busy, and you happen to be my assistant today."

The witch doctor took him directly to the extraordinary laboratory.

This is Leicester's first time here. The building is entirely underground, accessed via an elevator that resembles a bone prison.

There is a small window on the elevator, and it will stop at each floor.

When he got down to the first floor, he looked outside through the small window.

It was a narrow passage, with prison-like buildings on both sides of the passage, which contained terrifying monsters.

Even though they didn't make any sound or move, Lester felt a strong pressure hanging over his heart.

That is life's instinctive fear for extraordinary creatures.

The passage goes all the way down, and there are many monsters imprisoned on each level, and they become more and more dangerous as you go down.

Going down to the last floor is a wide square.

The square is circular, with stone doors one after another. Each stone door has a different pattern on it, marking their different functions.

Lester noticed the criss-crossing pipes above his head. These pipes converged to the ground to form a huge water pipe with a diameter of several meters.

This huge pipeline leads to the sea and is connected to the bottom of the sea.

“So this is where the water we use comes from.”

For so many years since he came to the Witch Doctor's House, Lester has always used water pipes that allow him to get water as soon as he turns on the switch. However, only today did he really know where the water came from.

It is these pipes that pump seawater and send it to various cultivation rooms and witch doctor cabins on the ground for everyone's use, as well as cultivation experiments.

As for how the extraction must involve extraordinary power, Lester couldn't quite figure it out.

Lester asked: "Master Witch Doctor! What experiments are we doing today?"

The medicine man replied: "Make a cloverleaf man."

Lester was stunned: "What?"

He thought he heard something wrong.

The witch doctors had just had a sudden idea that they had transformed life and created extraordinary beings with unstable lifespans and extremely short lifespans.

Then can they create a kind of Trileaf people derived from the power of life, an intelligent race of life power?

This idea suddenly came to him when he saw Lester.

Just do it as soon as you think of it.

It doesn't matter even if it fails, it's the first time to conduct an experiment anyway.

The witch doctor opened a stone door, and the corresponding ritual formations had been carved on the ground inside.

"Lester."

"Take out a trilobite and put it on top."

The witch doctor took out a stone, an irregular blood-red stone.

It shines with a mirror-like luster, and the transparent glue feels so strong that it feels like water will drip out of it.

"What is this?" This was not the first time Lester had seen this stone, but this was the first time he had the courage to ask.

In his opinion, such things must involve the most fundamental secrets of witch doctors.

Asking questions rashly may cause dissatisfaction among the witch doctors.

He had seen the witch doctor take out this before and create a heart, a large amount of blood, and replicate the organs of the three-leaf man in the blink of an eye.

He saw that the witch doctors, holding it in one hand, could revive patients who were obviously dead but not actually dead with the other hand.

Lester has seen it too.

The witch doctor used this stone to turn some weak life species into terrifying monsters that could easily devour and kill the three-leaf people in the blink of an eye.

"You can call it the Life-blood Stone," the witch doctor replied.

This thing is like the panacea that doctors say is the panacea.

Can heal all injuries.

Rebirth of severed limbs, resurrection of near-death, creation of life.

In front of it, everything seemed extremely relaxed.

The apprentices in the witch doctor's house often say that the witch doctors have mastered the power of the panacea, the strange powder they create using the magic of bone.

That's the proof.

In fact, this is the solid form of the mythical blood of life power.

The ceremony starts.

The life blood stone placed by the witch doctor on the ritual array was bleeding red light, pouring into the trilobite's body.

The trilobite's reminder continued to swell, but it was obvious that it was soon unable to withstand the force.

The witch doctor only created a large trilobite, and it died not long after it was born.

The experiment failed, or exactly as the witch doctor expected.

The witch doctor shook his head and said calmly.

"Creating intelligent life is indeed the power of gods!"

"God can create trilobites from trilobites, but we are still far from that point."

"What? You said this thing is our ancestor?" Lester thought this statement was really funny.

"Don't you think they are similar to you?" Lester didn't even notice that the other person was talking about you.

"It's so similar. Master Witch Doctor, please stop joking." Lester couldn't accept this statement.

They are Sanye people.

How could the beloved of God and the Lord of the Earth be transformed into an insect?

The witch doctor looked at him with interest and mentioned another piece of evidence.

"That!"

"Why do you call them Shamrocks?"

"And they...just happen to be called trilobites?"

"These two names were given by the gods."

That's what the witch doctors said, but the three-leaf people didn't believe it: "It just happens to be the same name."

The witch doctor didn't dwell on the question.

He put the body of the dead test subject into a glass jar under mental control, and then left the laboratory with the jar in his hand.

"You wait for me here."

The witch doctor named Left Hand left, and Lester looked around boredly.

Suddenly, he discovered that the red stone was still placed on the ritual array.

He was stunned for a moment, and then picked up the stone like a ghost.

The irregular stones have a gelatinous texture to the touch and are smooth and greasy to the hand.

It doesn't look sturdy either.

"Bo!"

He exerted some force and actually pulled off a small piece of the stone.

He immediately panicked, and after thinking for a while, he immediately put the small piece he had buckled into his pocket.

He had just put the stone down on the spot when footsteps came from outside.

"Lester!"

"I'm here." Lester responded immediately, but his body was a little stiff and his words were extremely hurried.

The witch doctor came in and packed up his things, and then said to Lester.

"Walk!"

"Go up."

Lester followed the doctor, but his mind was involuntarily focused on his pocket.

The mind is agitated.

A while later, news came from outside that the Dark River area had been completely recovered by the kingdom.

The rebel lords were beheaded and sent to the City of Gods.

The war is over.

At this time, Lester also proposed to the witch doctors the idea of ​​​​leaving the witch doctor's house.

"Lester!"

"How long have you been here?"

The witch doctor named Left Hand asked him. This witch doctor was friendly to the clover people and trusted Lester very much.

In a sense, he was Lester's teacher.

Although Leicester has always called him Lord Witch Doctor, or Lord Left Hand.

"Almost ten years," Lester said.

The witch doctor nodded: "Ten years."

"It should be a very long time for you."

"It's time to go home."

Ten years is just a blink of an eye for a witch doctor, but for ordinary people, there are only a few decades in life.

Especially, when you are most young and physically strong.

The left-handed witch doctor stood up and patted Lester on the shoulder with his gloved hand.

"I hope that the knowledge you learn in the Witch Doctor's House can become the power to realize your ideals."

"but."

"Power does not distinguish between good and evil. If it can save people, it can also kill people."

"I hope you can really take advantage of it."

Lester nodded: "Lord Left Hand, I will."

After speaking, the witch doctor also gave him a gift.

A blood-red bug in a jar.

Lester asked the witch doctor, "What is this?"

"Vampire worm?"

The witch doctor shook his head: "This is the latest thing I created. It is an extraordinary life."

"But don't worry, it's not harmful."

"As long as you feed it, it can store blood in its body, and the blood it stores can be replaced with blood that matches anyone."

"When you need it, you just need to follow the method I told you to create suitable blood."

Needless to say, Lester certainly knows how important and powerful a medical tool this is.

Most of the seriously injured people died because of excessive blood loss.

When performing surgery on people, it is also inseparable from the blood supply.

With this blood-sucking worm, he can let go.

The witch doctor was very kind to him, which made Lester suddenly feel guilty for his previous actions, but he still did not hand over the life blood stone he had stolen.

"thank you!"

"Master Witch Doctor."

——

Cross City.

Lester rides a three-wheel trailer with boxes on it.

The familiar crossroads and ancient mottled city walls appear in the distance.

"Finally home."

Lester jumped down excitedly and pushed the car towards the front.

He looked at the surrounding scenery, every stone here, and a mountain peak in the distance.

It can all bring back his memories.

A war broke out here not long ago. In order to compete for this wealthy and strategically located city, both sides used the power of the priesthood.

Large pits appeared on the city wall, and some parts showed signs of collapse.

It was also after this war that the rebels no longer had the power to resist. The king's army went all the way deep into the Underwater area to regain the last lost ground.

Lester pushed the trailer to the city gate, paid the city entrance tax and entered.

The guard at the city gate checked and said to his companions: "The war is finally over, and more and more people are coming back."

The companion responded: "After fighting for so many years, it's time to stop."

As the rebellion was quelled, peace returned.

But what Leicester saw when he entered the city was a mess.

The prosperity is gone.

Several years of war, lack of production, and cutoff of trade routes have left people in this city fleeing to death, and the remaining people are not living a good life.

There are beggars and orphans left behind by the war everywhere. There are also many people with broken arms and legs on the streets. These are the wounded left over from the war.

"It's really shocking!"

Lester is a little worried, but he also believes that as long as peace comes, everything will be restored.

Lester returned to his home. As soon as he opened his door, a voice came from behind him.

The neighbor across the door looked at him and didn't even recognize Lester: "Who are you?"

Lester felt funny and a little sad at the same time: "I am Lester!"

The other party looked at him carefully, and then finally remembered.

The other party rushed over at once, looked at him from head to toe, then pointed at him and said loudly.

"Are you Lester?"

"The Lester who went to learn medicine from the witch doctor?"

Lester nodded: "That's me."

Immediately there were chants in the streets: "Lester is back!"

"Lester is back."

"The Lester who went to practice witchcraft and medicine is back."

On this street, Leicester can be regarded as a famous figure.

Like the Vivien sisters on the other street, he is a character that people in his hometown are proud of, a name that people in his hometown often mention and a topic of conversation when chatting.

A large number of people suddenly poured out of the streets and alleys, looking over here.

The quiet street suddenly became extremely lively.

"You're back."

"How many years have you been away?"

"How was your stay with the witch doctor? Did you really learn the magic that can resurrect the dead?"

The news is always getting more and more outrageous.

To the people in his hometown, Lester seems to be no longer a mortal, but a being who has mastered some magical secret and is a person who can fight against death.

Lester felt a little funny and could only explain.

"I studied medicine."

"It's not magic."

People in my hometown think they are similar. Is there any difference between the medical skills of witch doctors and the magical skills?

Moreover, they cannot see or touch magical skills, but medical skills are something that can be seen and touched and can save their lives.

Lester looked at everyone, these familiar faces, and sighed.

"Everyone has changed a lot!"

When they left, these people were still in their prime, and many of them were still children.

And when he came back, many people were already old.

But the children back then had grown up, and looked at him with strange expressions, as if they were looking at some legendary figure.

"Is he the Lester?"

"Lester, whose medical skills are so great that he can revive the dead?"

"As I said, he is the most powerful one in the witch doctor's hut."

"I heard that he guided Sister Vivien to find a witch doctor. Vivien's sister survived and later had the opportunity to go to the Temple of Truth."

Looking at the expectant eyes of his hometown people, Lester stood on the steps in front of his house.

He said to everyone.

"Let me tell you something, I won't leave when I come back this time."

"I will build my own medical clinic here and treat everyone in the future."

"If you have any difficulties or questions, you can come to my clinic or see me at home."

The crowd burst into cheers. Having a doctor from the Witch Doctor's House was a good thing for the entire Cross City.

If there is any serious injury or illness in the future, there is no need to wait for death.

Leicester's hospital is located on this street and is named Leicester Medical Clinic.

the first year.

It has a very big reputation.

He can bring seriously injured and dying people back from the brink of death, and can solve all kinds of incredible and difficult diseases through miraculous surgeries.

The various methods he used seemed to ordinary people like divine arts and magic. They were extremely mysterious, but they could save people's lives.

He is the enemy of death and the savior of the sick.

"Holy Hand Lester."

This was how Lester was called, and his fame spread.

Not only the people in Cross City recognized his medical skills, but also the dignitaries treated him as a guest.

Even patients from outside the city flocked to Leicester's hospital to seek treatment from him.

the second year.

Leicester Medical Clinic was expanded and turned into a huge medical castle, located in the most conspicuous location in the city.

He also accepted many apprentices, and there were dozens of them in the medical fort, which took in and treated a large number of patients every day.

The third year.

He took a wife and started a family of his own.

His life is happy and perfect, and Lester is satisfied with his life.

But there is still something he is not satisfied with, and that is his medical skills.

Lester's home is filled with records of various treatment cases, and the shelves are filled with various medical books. It is less like a home and more like another medical clinic.

His wife was also a physician and an admirer of his.

At the same time, his wife was also responsible for assisting in organizing his medical skills into a book.

This is Leicester's greatest ideal.

Let his medical skills flourish and become the founder of medical skills among all people.

this day.

Lester returned home and sat on a chair a little dejectedly.

"What's wrong?"

Lester: "A patient died today and I couldn't save him."

His wife comforted him: "This is normal. You are not God. How can you save everyone?"

Lester looked at his wife: "Do you think my medical skills are great?"

His wife looked at him with admiration and hugged his neck.

"certainly."

"You are the most amazing doctor I have ever seen."

Lester shook his head: "But it's far behind the witch doctor."

"Even the most powerful doctor cannot compare with the witch doctor."

"wrong."

"Not even as good as one of their little fingers."

He let go of his wife's hand and came to the closed building behind the yard.

There are many undersea plants cultivated here, and there are also many insects raised in a huge glass cover.

Open a secret door and enter the secret room below.

It's completely different here.

There are a large number of bottles and jars with various internal organs in them.

And the most conspicuous.

It's a bloody worm, which was a gift from Leicester's teacher, the left-handed witch doctor.

It is precisely because of it that Leicester was able to build his own reputation in Cross City so quickly and became the "Holy Hand" praised by everyone.

Lester opened the table and took out the contents.

This is a red stone the size of a fingernail, but such a small piece possesses unparalleled vitality.

"The Blood Stone of Life."

"A stone that represents the power of life, what other miracles can you create?"

Lester has been studying the function of this life blood stone and the power of blood-sucking worms.

Blood-sucking worms can replicate blood, and the Life Blood Stone is also a type of blood.

It’s just that the power of the Life Blood Stone is too powerful and too unstable.

He has been trying to create a drug that has the power of life blood stone but is more stable by fusing the power of the two.

Something that can heal any wound and treat any disease.

Just like witch doctors create bone powder to cure diseases, just like doctors spread the omnipotent elixir by word of mouth.

"The panacea."

"I will definitely be able to create a real panacea."

Lester looked at the red stone.

Red seems to have a special power, with a strong temptation that makes people fall into it involuntarily.

It represents death and life.

Despair and hope can both be seen in this color.

"The power of the witch doctor cannot be passed on to everyone."

"Then I will use my own way to create our own power."
