"I'm just offering you some advice because the patient will die if you use the wrong method. And if that happens, you'll regret not listening to me," Dustin said "Hah! That's rubbish!" Caldwell snapped rudely. "Dr. Busch personally taught me this method to save patients. It has worked every single time without fail! Do you think that you're better than Dr. Busch?""There is no hard and fast way to save a patient. You must consider the situation before using a certain method. You must be adaptable," Dustin reminded him."Shut up! One more word from you, and I'll throw you out!" Caldwell's embarrassment fueled the anger within him.He was Dr. Busch's star apprentice who would be in charge of running Harmony Healers in the future! How dare a nobody tell him what to do? He thought too highly of himself!"Well, have it your way then." Dustin shook his head, saying nothing more. "Cut the crap! Save her!" the head bodyguard urged.Caldwell suppressed the anger within him and bega

"Wait a second!" Caldwell suddenly came back to his senses. He quickly exclaimed, "You can't seriously believe what this brat is saying, can you? He's not even from Harmony Healers! Don't be fooled!""Fooled?" The head bodyguard looked Dustin up and down before he frowned and asked, "You're not a doctor?""I'm not a doctor from Harmony Healers, but I do have some medical knowledge," Dustin told him honestly. He had nothing to hide."Hmph! If Harmony Healers can't save her, what makes you think you can?" Caldwell snarled."Just because you can't doesn't mean I can't too. As I told you, you were using the wrong method," Dustin said calmly."Rubbish! I'm Dr. Busch's star apprentice! Who are you to compare yourself to me?" Caldwell fumed in frustration."I don't want to waste time with you. Move aside. Don't distract me from saving the patient," Dustin said impatiently.He really couldn't understand what was going on inside Caldwell's head. Was he trying to stop Dustin from saving

Dustin waved his hand to signal everyone to move back so there would be enough space."Support her!" Dustin ordered the head bodyguard to hold Eleanor up.He then used his finger to pry open her mouth and held onto her tongue as he pulled out a small part. As he did that, he activated his internal energy and gave Eleanor a sudden smack on her back.It was a loud slap. Eleanor's body suddenly trembled, and her head lifted upward as she started regurgitating a large amount of water with a loud noise. As everyone took a closer look, they realized that there was a fish in her vomit!"My goodness! Why would there be a fish in Ms. Welch's mouth?""Was this fish stuck in her throat? Was this why she couldn't breathe?""No wonder Dr. Quinn's method didn't work. A fish was stuck in her throat. Such bad luck!"The onlookers were shocked to see the tiny fish on the ground as they whispered among themselves. The cause behind Ms. Welch's suffocation was finally revealed."H—how could this

"Ugh…" Eleanor sat up right away and let out a breathless groan. After that, she started heaving as if she had just been given a second chance at life, greedily taking in the air around her. Her pale face gradually took on a rosy color.This sudden turn of events shocked everyone. No one thought Ms. Welch, who was dead, would suddenly come alive."She's … awake? Is she a zombie?""My goodness! Did he revive the dead? Is this for real?""Miracle doctor! He's a miracle doctor!"The onlookers looked at each other in surprise. They had never witnessed anything like this, even if they had seen and heard it all.Eleanor was already dead. She was no longer breathing, and her heart had already stopped beating. But Eleanor came back to life after Dustin gave her three jabs. They had never heard of a miracle like this. Right then, everyone looked at Dustin with a different perspective."It—it's impossible!""She was already dead! How did he revive her?" Caldwell was shocked to the

"This miracle doctor has hit the big time. He actually saved Ms. Welch. How lucky!" The onlookers were envious to see the million dollars check. That amount of money was enough for them to retire."Fuck!" Caldwell gritted his teeth and clenched his fists. This windfall of money should have been his. Who would have thought Dustin would take it away from him? This swindler ruined his shot at fame and riches."Thanks." Dustin accepted the check readily. He may not have saved Eleanor for money, but he wouldn't refuse it since they offered it."Doctor Rhys, I still have other matters to attend to. See you soon! "Come to me for help if you ever end up in a ditch." Eleanor left quickly after saying that. She had just been rescued from the lake, and she looked terrible. She needed to freshen up."Hey!" Suddenly, the head bodyguard turned to Caldwell with a scowl.He said, "Didn't you say you'd eat the vomit if Doctor Rhys could save Ms. Welch in three jabs? Well, you can eat now!"

"Dr. Busch? Is Dr. Busch here?" Everyone immediately gathered around Brooke when they saw him and left Dustin alone.Dustin's performance earlier might have been impressive, but it was different when compared to Brooke. After all, Brooke had been famous among the people for many years. His reputation in the community was irreplaceable."Dr. Busch! You've finally arrived! Harmony Healers was almost in trouble earlier!""Yes, that's right! Someone would have died earlier if not for this doctor here. He saved the reputation of Harmony Healers!""Dr. Busch, is this doctor your new apprentice?"The crowd bombarded Brooke with questions, eager to satisfy their curiosity. Under the relentless questioning, Brooke was completely dumbfounded as soon as he entered. He stood rooted to the floor, confused."Everyone, please … calm down." Brooke raised his hands in an attempt to quiet the crowd. When the noise finally died down, he asked, "What actually happened? Tell me slowly.""I'll

"Grandpa, why did you bring a stranger up here again?" Harper frowned, displeased."Harper, be nice!" Brooke said with a stern face, "This young man just saved Harmony Healers, so he's our savior. It's only polite that I invite him up for a drink.""How did he help us?" Harper looked him up and down with a curious gaze."We had a little bit of trouble earlier at the clinic. This young man helped us and saved our reputation." Brooke said seriously. If Eleanor really died at Harmony Healers, he feared that Harmony Healers' reputation wasn't the only thing that would be lost."Grandpa, stop joking! We have so many doctors at Harmony Healers. "Is there anything that we can't cure? Do we need extra help?" Harper didn't believe it. Harmony Healers was very famous. Most hospitals would normally send the patients that they couldn't cure to them. Dustin appeared young. How could he be any better than the doctors at Harmony Healers?"Harper, don't judge a book by its cover. Dustin

Brooke ensured the second-floor door was securely locked before heading to the third floor. The third floor was like a fortress. It was nearly impenetrable, with tough iron doors, security bars, surveillance cameras, and security alarms.After passing through multiple security bars, he arrived at the dimly lit, messy third floor. The third floor's only tidy and warm room was in the innermost part of the building. Inside that room lay a frail, pale middle-aged man lying on his bed, unconscious and barely breathing.Brooke walked over to the man and checked his pulse, then sighed deeply. "Ten years, and I still can't get you to wake up," he lamented. "It's a shame I can't cure you despite being a skilled doctor." Brooke shook his head. He retrieved a tablet, and placed it in the man's mouth.For the past ten years, Brooke had been devoted to Cinna's care, trying various treatments and scouring ancient manuscripts. Yet all of his efforts had been in vain. All he could do was

"Kill them all!"At Warrick's command, the Red Legion charged without hesitation. Blades flashed as they stormed toward the elite enforcement unit.This time, nearly a thousand Red Legion soldiers arrived. With their sheer numbers, they launched a pincer attack from both flanks, leaving the enemy with no way to fend it off."Form the Shield Formation!" Axel shouted upon seeing the dire situation. His men immediately sheathed their blades and raised their shields to form a defensive line. Their pursuit had cut them off from the main force. Since they were up against an enemy ten times their size, forming a defensive line was their best option.If they could stall for even a moment, reinforcements from the castle would arrive, and the tide would turn in their favor. Once that happened, the thousand-strong Red Legion would be the ones on the defensive.After a brief charge, the two forces collided.Warrick had personally trained the Red Legion. He selected only the most loyal and

Axel had no time to hesitate. He lunged forward and grabbed the overturned Dragon-Binding Net. Then, he used every ounce of his strength to pin Warrick down again."Get over here! We have to keep him restrained."As the net strained under Warrick's sheer power, Axel let out a roar and pushed his cultivation to the limit. His veins bulged and blood pounded in his ears. He threw every last bit of strength into holding Warrick down.For now, he managed to pin Warrick down, but the elite enforcement unit on the other side wasn't faring well. Warrick thrashed wildly, sending more than a dozen men swinging through the air. Some slammed into trees, while others crashed into walls. Within moments, the Dragon-Binding Net flipped over again.Several elite enforcement units tried to rush in and help, but they barely got close before getting hit by their own airborne comrades and sent flying.Against Warrick's Divine Strength, they were utterly outmatched. The regular guards didn't stand a

If Warrick had been at his peak, Axel might have been more cautious. But with Tranqurin coursing through his vein, Warrick had barely a fraction of his usual strength left. His power was still fading, and Axel wasn't about to waste the opportunity. He had to capture Warrick while he had the chance."Get the hell out of my way!"As the enforcers closed in, Warrick let out a furious roar and slammed his massive fist into the floor.With a loud explosion, the earth shook violently. The ground within dozens of yards cracked and caved in, splitting apart like a spiderweb. A powerful shockwave tore through the air, sending dirt flying and walls shattering. The entire meeting room collapsed into ruins.The elite enforcers, caught in the blast, were flung backward like ragdolls. They crashed to the ground, disoriented and battered. Even Axel was thrown back more than ten yards.Warrick panted heavily, his face pale and drenched in sweat. Forcing his internal energy into action had only

Austin's words were strong and commanding, each one landing like a thunderclap.Warrick felt the weight of his presence. His brow furrowed for a moment, but he quickly regained his composure. He glanced at the so-called evidence on the floor, showing no sign of panic or guilt. Instead, he said indifferently, "Your Highness, these dead men were nothing more than ants. Is this really worth making such a fuss over? I doubt you haven't killed anyone before."As the old saying went, the higher one climbed, the heavier one's purse. Warrick had clawed his way up, risking his life at every step for the sake of rising above the masses. Everyone had their own desires—some sought fame, others fortune. Some were greedy for money, some for power, and others reveled in the adoration of the masses. To achieve those things, one inevitably had to engage in shady dealings. It was an unspoken rule among officials, and Warrick saw nothing wrong with it."Ants?" Austin sneered. "Without these 'ant

The ashen-faced Huxley was dragged away. With his crimes exposed, his fate was sealed. His entire family would be implicated, and their assets would be seized.Those guilty would be punished, and even those who had merely benefited from his corruption would be held accountable. To put it bluntly, Huxley's entire family was about to be annihilated.Austin issued his next order once the bloodstains were cleaned up. "Axel, it's time to bring in the mastermind."With Huxley dealt with, the next step was to confront Warrick. Unlike Huxley, Warrick wouldn't be easy to deal with. After all, he commanded a large number of troops. If backed into a corner, he could become a major threat."Understood!" Axel responded respectfully, then turned to his subordinates. "Gather more men and come with me."Warrick had earned his prestigious position through years of fierce battles. On the battlefield, he was a one-man army, a warrior capable of taking on thousands. His strength was beyond what mos

"You bastard! With all this evidence in front of you, what do you have to say for yourself?" Austin barked."Your Highness, please let me explain…" Huxley broke out in a cold sweat, his voice trembling with panic."This is a lie. Someone's trying to frame me! I've always followed the law—how could I possibly be involved in something so vile?""The evidence is right in front of you, and you're still trying to weasel out of it?" Austin shot back. "Looks like you won't confess until death is knocking at your door."He raised his hand and ordered, "Guards, throw him into Grimhold Keep. Use whatever means necessary—let's see how long he keeps up this act.""Yes, Your Highness."A squad of enforcement team members rushed in and surrounded Huxley.Cornered, Huxley finally lost his nerve. He dropped to his knees with a thud and begged, "Your Highness, I admit I made a grave mistake."His voice cracked as he continued, "I wasn't thinking clearly at the time. Please, for the sake of my y

Night had fallen. Austin sat in the meeting room, quietly reading a book as he waited for the results of the investigation.After successfully turning Percival against his allies, it was only a matter of time before they uncovered solid evidence of Warrick and Huxley's crimes.For years, the castle had turned a blind eye to their shady dealings. After all, corruption among officials was nothing new.But this time was different. The two had secretly orchestrated Jovian's murder, a direct challenge to the authority and dignity of the royal family. Such defiance couldn't be ignored. If Austin didn't set an example, others would surely follow."Your Highness!"Axel burst into the meeting room, panting heavily. He had clearly run the whole way to avoid any delay.Austin set his book aside and asked calmly, "Well? How did it go?""Your Highness, we've completely shut down all of Warrick and Huxley's illicit operations. Every hidden network they had built over the years has also been d
Chapter 2471
At that moment, Percival truly panicked. Earlier, he had only worried about being implicated. But now, faced with such a serious accusation, he was completely caught off guard."Hmph! The evidence is irrefutable, and you still dare deny it? Do you want me to torture the truth out of you?" Austin barked."Your Highness, I'm innocent!" Percival was so terrified he was on the verge of tears. He raised his hand and swore, "If I had anything to do with Jovian's death, may I be damned for eternity.""If swearing oaths proved innocence, we wouldn't need an enforcement team," Austin said coldly. "Out of respect for your years of service to West Lucozia, I'll give you a chance to come clean and receive a lighter sentence. Tell the truth now, or I'll throw you into Grimhold Keep."At the mention of Grimhold Keep, Percival began to shake uncontrollably. Tears and snot ran down his face as he wailed, "Your Highness, I swear I didn't do anything. Who's the bastard making up these accusations?

Ten minutes later, Warrick was escorted out of Room A1 again.Axel's demeanor had completely changed since their first meeting, and he had become unusually warm."Sir Prescott, Lord Austin has concluded the investigation. It turns out this matter has nothing to do with you. We made a mistake earlier, and I apologize for any offense caused." He smiled apologetically and spoke with a humble tone."Hm?" Seeing the fawning expression on Axel's face, Warrick raised an eyebrow and looked surprised. Just moments ago, the two sides had been at each other's throats. What had caused such a sudden change?"Did you really investigate it thoroughly?" Warrick asked tentatively."Of course! According to our findings, Jovian's disappearance was the result of a personal vendetta from his enemies in Oakvale," Axel said with a straight face.He continued, "He was a tyrant and always stirring up trouble everywhere he went. He got what was coming to him. Lord Austin only launched the investigation
