Chapter 166 Difficult Treatment
Wait, if the Moon Bead's freezing energy isn't effective, what about my own ZF knack superpower energy?
This wasn't just about the plants in the garden anymore; it was about whether Ethan's limited superpower abilities would suffice for the task at hand.
Nevertheless, he decided to give it a shot. With determination, Ethan withdrew his icy breath and summoned his ZF knack superpower from within his dantian.
The attempt filled him with anticipation. Though he didn't hold high expectations, he was eager to see the outcome. Surprisingly, when the mysterious dark energy encountered his ZF knack superpower, it seemed to disperse like a rat fleeing from a cat, dissipating into nothingness.
Ethan was amazed! He hadn't anticipated his superpower to have such a significant impact on the dark energy. However, his joy was short-lived. Within a minute, the energy in his dantian had been depleted by more than half.
Observing the dark energy still present in Mr. Grant's body, Ethan realized that only a fraction had been resolved.
At this rate, it would take several more treatments to completely eliminate the dark energy, and each treatment had to be after Mr. Grant had fully recovered.
Additionally, the dark energy continued to grow. Ethan eventually withdrew his superpower and informed the group of Mr. Grant's precarious situation.
Remington inquired about the status, to which Ethan responded with a grave expression, expressing concerns about potential complications if the issue was not resolved promptly.
However, Gary dismissively questioned Ethan's abilities, prompting Ethan to defend himself by asserting that he did indeed have solutions.
This led to a heated exchange between Ethan and Gary, culminating in Ethan openly criticizing Gary's lack of self-awareness and abilities.
"Do you really have a solution?" Remington quickly asked.
"I do have a solution, but it may take some time. I will need at least ten days. It can't be completely eradicated in one go!"
Ethan shook his head helplessly. Even though Clarence had previously mentioned the importance of prioritizing, Ethan didn't want to spend all his time on medical treatment.
Now he didn't need to hold back anymore. Even though he wanted to solve the problem all at once, he couldn’t.
"As long as you can save Norman."
Upon hearing this, Remington was overjoyed and slapped Ethan on the shoulder, laughing heartily. "I knew it was the right choice to find you. You didn't disappoint me!"
"Ethan, can you really remove the toxins from my body?" Mr. Grant asked, filled with doubt.
In reality, he agreed to let Ethan treat him just because he didn’t want Remington to lose face. He didn't have much hope.
He didn’t expect that Ethan would bring him a pleasant surprise!
Mr. Grant, being a prominent figure, understood the repercussions of his death on people' interests and stability. His survival maintained a delicate balance, preventing chaos and preserving peace. His death could lead to uncontrollable consequences, jeopardizing the peace he strived to uphold.
It was evident that Mr. Grant's desire to live stemmed not just from self-preservation but from a deep concern for the well-being of all.
“There is a way to remove the toxins from your body, and I have already started the process. However, it's a slow process that requires time. The toxins are still affecting your health and getting stronger. My power is limited, so I use part of it to detoxify you and the rest to protect your organs, slowing down the toxin's growth. Without this, my method would be no different than giving you herbal medicine every day.”
Ethan explained seriously.
"So, you have already treated Mr. Grant earlier?" Remington's eyes sparkled as he asked eagerly.
"Yes, I need to continue regulating Mr. Grant's body to protect his organs. It's crucial that he lies down on a bed in a quiet environment without any disturbances," Ethan explained solemnly.
No way! Just going by your word, how could we make light of Mr. Grant's situation? And to give him special treatment? The current commanding officer wouldn't even consider it, let alone me!" Gary responded eagerly before Remington or Mr. Grant could intervene.
"Gary! I can handle this situation on my own. If Ethan says he's confident, I'm willing to trust him! In my position, do I have any other choice? Enough talking, Ethan, come back to my room with me!" However, Mr. Grant's expression darkened as he scolded Gary, then stood up and walked sternly into the building.
Sorry, I only take orders from Mr. Grant," Ethan said with a helpless shrug towards Gary before leaving with Sarah to follow Mr. Grant.
"Gary, we'll report this honestly, so don't worry. Since Ethan has a plan, we should halt Norman's medication as too much could be harmful," Remington assured Gary, patting his shoulder with a displeased expression before departing the garden.
Bennit, who had been waiting outside, shot a mocking glance at Gary before walking away, further adding to Gary's frustration.
"Fine, let’s see what the boy can do. You all believe in him so much! If something goes wrong, it's none of my business anyway!" Gary snorted through gritted teeth, then quickly walked back to his office. He wanted to report the matter to the office through internal security immediately.
He wanted to witness how Ethan would die if anything went wrong.
After arriving at his bedroom with Mr. Grant, Ethan instructed Remington, his son, and Sarah to wait outside and not enter until he was ready.
He also planned to summon a medical team to examine Mr. Grant's condition once he was done.
Remington agreed to all of Ethan's requests without hesitation, willing to comply with anything Ethan asked for.
After closing the door, Ethan and Mr. Grant immediately switched to their roles as patient and doctor.
The process lasted for about an hour and a half before coming to an end, leaving Ethan pale, drenched in cold sweat, and utterly drained.
Reluctantly allowing Remington to enter, Ethan suddenly lost his strength and collapsed into Sarah's arms, creating chaos in the room.
