Struggle in the Steam Age

Liszt deserves to be called the legendary sharp knife hand. It took less than 15 minutes from trimming the wound to ligating the blood vessels to finally suturing the skin. After he took care of everything, the two began to curiously ask the wounded what happened inside just now.

"After entering that door, there is a cave right in front of you." After drinking the sugar salt water prepared by Lawrence, the wounded man slowly recovered. "A very long and narrow cave. At the end of the cave is a naturally formed underground lake. In the center of the underground lake is a small crystal-like island. I don't know what on the island is always glowing green. "

"The underground lake is very shallow, reaching to people's knees. At the same time, the water is very clear, and the sand at the bottom of the lake can be seen through the surface of the water. At first everyone thought it was just a common cave with water, so Tom and I went down to the lake to help Everyone explore the way."

Having said that, the gunman showed a look of horror on his face. "But when we got into the water and walked seven or eight meters away from the shore, two or three huge monsters came out of the lake from under the sand and rushed towards us. I only saw a huge mouth, and then I The calf was directly bitten off by it."

"Fortunately, the two witchers responded in time. The male witcher threw a noose around me and pulled me out of the lake, while the female witcher used her shotgun We repelled a monster that rushed up. It's a pity that Tom's neck was bitten off by the monster at the first time, and there was no time for everyone to rescue him."

"Monster, what does that look like?" Liszt asked, and Lawrence also looked at the gunman with curiosity. Don't look at him living in a small town when he was a child and often meeting goblins, even after he was 12 years old, he would kill several of them with a gun every year. But he hadn't seen any monsters besides goblins and a few bear goblins.

This is also the case of the vast majority of ordinary people in this world. In their lifetime, they will often only see some extraordinary monsters of very continental origin, such as goblins, kobolds, or slime monsters. Only some ordinary people with very good luck or very bad luck can see other supernatural beings, whether domestic or wild.

"It's like a huge catfish, but its body is covered with a thick layer of sand." The shooter thought for a while and said, "But they have a big mouth that takes up at least half of their body, and they have blades that are as sharp as a knife." teeth."

"They move very quickly, and the layer of sand on their bodies can also provide a certain degree of defense and concealment. At that time, everyone on the shore was in a very vigilant state, but when Tom and I were attacked, there were only those two hunters." People responded."

"They used special extraordinary bullets when shooting at the monster, but I saw that those bullets didn't cause much damage to the monster, but only caused a few small wounds on the monster's body."

"Sounds amazing." Lawrence thought silently in his heart. When he was growing up in the church, he had read a lot of monster illustrations in the library. And the monsters whose special bullets can only cause minor injuries are at least apprentice-level monsters, or formal-level monsters.

This means that it is difficult for ordinary people to cause enough damage to these extraordinary creatures even with enchanted bullets. Therefore, whether the next exploration can achieve success depends entirely on the situation of the two demon hunters.

While waiting anxiously, three hours passed. Finally, Lawrence heard footsteps coming from the entrance of the black hole.

The first one to come out was Baron Gonzalez, his face full of frustration. After that, other people also filed out, but everyone's face was equally ugly.

The two demon hunters were at the back of the line, but the male demon hunter had a penetrating wound the size of a ping pong ball on his leg, so he had to be supported by his sister to move forward.

"There are two less workers." Lawrence silently counted the number of people in his heart and found the bad news, which meant that the underground lake might be more dangerous than imagined. When the last demon hunter came to his side, he immediately stepped forward and asked, "Your leg is injured, do you need to help me deal with it?"

"No need," the witcher shook his head. "The monster that injured my leg just now has magical damage, and ordinary doctors like you can't handle it."

After everyone returned to the ground, the two demon hunters went directly to Baron Gonzalez, gave up the mission and left. Baron Gonzalez looked a little frustrated, but it didn't stop the two from leaving. After watching the two people walk out of the gate of the construction site, he quickly adjusted his mood and arranged the next activities for everyone.

"Everyone wait here for two days first," Gonzalez said with his usual kind smile on his face. "I will try to invite a superhuman who is strong enough to solve the current problem within two days."

After finishing speaking, he asked Boob and a few gunmen to arrange accommodation for everyone. After that, I walked into the biggest house with the gunman Bill who opened the stone door just now, and I didn't know what to discuss.

Following a gunman, Lawrence and Liszt came to a cabin. This is a house with two bedrooms and one living room. Looking at the interior decoration and furniture, it is easy to tell that this house used to be used by managers or technicians on the construction site. Everything in the room is very tidy, whether it is the building itself Or the various items placed inside.

The gunman who brought them here briefly introduced the situation of the room and then closed the door and left. As soon as the gunman left, Liszt put the medical kit on his back on the ground and asked Lawrence what he said just now to reduce infection. principle.

"In fact, it is not complicated to reduce infection. The core is disinfection." Lawrence has been spreading the knowledge he has acquired after seeing the pig-killing operation, hoping to help more people. So as soon as Liszt asked this question, Lawrence began to speak eloquently.

Obviously, in this era, people already have microscopes to see many microorganisms. But what they don't realize is that these little things are causing the inflammation and infection. So after Lawrence put forward the idea that microorganisms cause disease, Lister showed an expression of sudden realization.

"What you said makes sense. I have loved cleanliness since I was a child. So I don't use the equipment and clothes repeatedly like my teacher did when operating on patients. Instead, I let several servants change and wash after each operation. Clothes, and wash your hands carefully at the same time. I think this is why the death rate of my surgery is at least half that of others.”

"Yes, that's true." Lawrence agreed, and then he shared his knowledge on disinfection with Lister. This said, the two chatted for a whole day, and they even wrote a 15-page paper together.

"Ha, this paper will definitely shock the medical world." After finishing the last letter, Liszt closed the manuscript paper and happily looked at his name on the position of the second author. "After we finish this adventure, I will implement these disinfection methods of yours on my operation, and I will send out the complete paper as soon as the data is collected. I think this paper of yours will be successfully published in the "Federal Federation" Medical Journal."

Lawrence also smiled after hearing these words, and the exhaustion from a day of discussion was swept away. Today, thanks to Liszt's help, he obtained a lot of first-hand information, and at the same time helped him find a place where he could practice. If it weren't for his help, it would be several times more difficult for Lawrence to complete this thesis alone than it is now.
