Chapter 23 Mercenary King Invincible
- Her firm stance made the doctor and nurse frown, and they had no choice but to carry out an electrocardiogram without pulling out the silver needles. Acute ST-segment elevation was shown on the electrocardiogram. “It is indeed a heart attack. We have to hurry back to the hospital!” Dr. Kwen’s expression changed. He immediately asked the driver to bring the stretcher over, lifted the old man into the ambulance, and asked the girl to get in. Then they hurried off to the hospital. On the way, Dr. Kwen and the nurse asked for information about the young girl and her grandfather. “My name is Lucy Zabel, and my grandfather’s name is Dominic Zabel.” “What? Your grandfather is Dominic Zabel?” Dr. Kwen and the nurse shouted with shock in their eyes. Dominic Zabel was the head of the largest family in Lightdom City and the deputy commander of the Lightdom Military Department. No wonder he looked so familiar. He turned out to be a big shot. Dr. Kwen came to his senses, took out his mobile phone, called the hospital, briefly explained the situation, and shouted, “Hurry up, ask all the doctors to gather in the emergency room and prepare for a rescue.” In the Emergency Department of Healthbridge Hospital.
- By the time the ambulance arrived, all the senior doctors were on standby. “Hurry up! “Get the exclusive emergency room ready! Then, prepare to treat Mr. Zabel!” Dr. Kwen and the nurse rushed Dominic into the emergency room and began his treatment. Lucy was asked to wait outside. “Dr. Kwen, remember, the silver needles in my grandfather’s chest must not be removed!” Lucy urged. However, the doctors turned a deaf ear to her words. A group of professors and famous doctors were in the room. Charlie Crane, a well-known cardiologist, saw the silver needles on the elderly man’s chest and hissed with a reproachful look. “Treating a heart attack with acupuncture? How ridiculous is that?” He turned to Dr. Kwen, who had returned with the ambulance, and said, “Sterling, are you the one who inserted the needles?” “Mr. Crane, it wasn’t me. A young man did this, and the patient’s granddaughter refused to let me remove them, saying the silver needles could treat a heart attack,” Sterling quickly explained. “A heart attack can be treated with acupuncture? Are you joking? Do you think that is possible?” Gharlie gave Sterling a contemptuous look. “I don’t, but the patient’s granddaughter insisted…” Sterling said, aggrieved.
- William Hawk, a divine physician on traditional medicine, looked at the needles scornfully and said, “Traditional medicine can treat some acute illnesses, but the needles are in a state of disorder, so there is no way this will work. The man must be a charlatan. This is going to kill Mr. Zabel!” Upon hearing this, all the doctors in the room looked at the silver needles with disgust. William was a renowned divine physician on traditional medicine in Lightdom City and had been trained in the Divine Healers Sect. His words were authoritative, so everyone thought the silver needles were dead weight. “The needles are slowing down the treatment. Sterling, pull them out!” ordered Charlie coldly, his eyes filled with contempt. As a cardiologist with years of study and training behind him, he had a disdain for quack doctors and even traditional medicine. He believed that traditional medicine and acupuncture were nothing more than quackery. “Do it,” he scowled. Sterling nodded and removed all the silver needles. The ECG machine beeped the minute the silver needles were pulled out. Dominic’s heart rate began to accelerate, and the electrocardiogram showed the pattern of a heart attack again.
