Chapter 31: Fountain Of Life

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The medical center was divided into two floors. The stairs on the second floor were built outdoors.

The second floor was mainly used to isolate patients with infectious diseases.

The first floor was used to treat patients with ordinary or traumatic injuries. The first and second floors were not connected to each other.

Su Chen and Maggie followed Emily through the door to the hall on the first floor of the medical center. The first thing they saw was a snow-white stone sculpture placed in the empty space in the center of the first floor.

The stone sculpture was about the height of a person and was divided into two layers. The lower layer was a huge semi-circular stone disc-shaped support. The upper layer was about a third of the size of the lower layer, and it was also a semi-circular stone disc-shaped support.

At the top of the upper layer was a chubby little angel statue. He used a pair of wings to completely wrap himself up, so they couldn’t see his exact appearance.

They could only judge from its size that it was a young little angel.

“Mayor, this is the statue that I told you appeared out of thin air,” Maggie turned his head and said to Su Chen.

“Wow, this is so beautiful.” Emily had already rushed to the statue and placed her hands on the stone statue to caress it.

At this time, the system’s notification sound also rang in Su Chen’s mind.

[ Detected a benevolent heart, Emily — Priest

Qualified.

Make Emily a resident medical staff of the Medical Center? ]

When Su Chen heard the system’s notification, he guessed correctly. Emily was indeed a suitable candidate, but in order to respect her choice, he still had to confirm it with her.

“Emily, are you willing to help more people here?”

Su Chen walked to Emily’s side and asked her with a smile.

“Mayor, of course I’m willing! It’s just… I feel that I’m not qualified to be the person in charge of such a large medical center, and…”

A look of disappointment flashed across Emily’s face as she stammered to Su Chen.

When Emily said she was willing, Su Chen chose to agree with the system.

Before Emily could finish her words, the double-layered stone sculpture began to tremble, and the sound of water could be heard from the stone sculpture.

Their gazes were immediately attracted by the trembling stone sculpture.

A moment later, a small stream of faint emerald green spring water emerged from the little angel’s head.

The stone plate on the upper layer also began to condense one green light ball after another.

So this stone sculpture was a fountain!

At the same time, another stream of information appeared in Su Chen’s mind.

[ Congratulations on successfully binding the resident medical staff.

The functions of the medical center are activated.

The Fountain of Life (disabled) is activated.

The resident medical staff who are bound can obtain the medical inheritance through the fountain of life. ]

Waves and waves of life energy were constantly emitted from the fountain.

“Is… Is this a miracle?” Emily was so shocked that she could not close her mouth.

“This is the miracle of the mayor!” Maggie was equally shocked. The aura of the emerald green fountain made him feel as if he was being baptized by waves and waves of life energy.

[ Successfully built and activated the medical center! ]!

[ Congratulations on obtaining a reward: mutated anesthetic (silver rank) * 1]

Su Chen patted Emily, who was still in shock, and whispered to her, “You can try touching the fountain of life again. There will be a surprise.”

Emily’s mind was still in a blank state of shock. When she heard what Su Chen said to her, she put her hand on the edge of the fountain in a daze, and a huge amount of inherited information rushed into her mind.

Emily’s mind, which had been shocked to the point of being defenseless, suddenly could not withstand the impact. The protective mode of her brain was activated, causing her to faint and rest.

When Su Chen saw Emily’s body go limp and lean back, he quickly held her in his arms.

All of a sudden, he felt the plump body of the loose priest in his hand, and a faint body fragrance came from it.

“It’s really something!” Su Chen sighed in his heart. He picked up Emily’s body and carried her to the hospital bed.

“Mayor, is Emily alright?” Maggie was worried for Emily when she saw her suddenly fall.

“Emily is fine. She just received the inheritance and fainted due to the impact of the information. She’s fine. She’ll be fine after resting for a while.” Su Chen gently placed Emily on the brand-new hospital bed.

In the medical center, it could speed up her recovery. The life energy released by the fountain could also help Emily wake up.

Hearing Su Chen’s words, Maggie was relieved. He began to study the fountain of life in the middle.

“This is incredible. Mayor, I feel that the miracle you created is comparable to that of a god.”

It had been a long time since the gods performed miracles in the mortal world. Their era had passed, and no one knew what had happened in the deity world during this period of time.

Su Chen was too lazy to respond to Maggie’s exaggerated praise. At the same time, he went forward with her and caressed the exquisite fountain of life.

[ Fountain of life (broken)]

It belonged to the legendary messenger of light who cast healing spells — Raphael.

After the cataclysm, the magic stone could be thrown into the lower pool, and the unused life energy could be stored there. (the total amount of life energy stored depends on the quality and quantity of the magic stone. The magic stone is basically not consumed.)

It can also be stored by manually inputting life energy. ]

What Su Chen did not expect was that the fountain could still store the ten life light balls that could not be used up.

“Maggie, take out twenty magic stones from the town and throw them into the lower pool.

“At the same time, ask the town’s blacksmith to build a sturdy fence to protect it.

“Ask Ian to send a few powerful knights to take turns to guard it. Except for Emily, no one is allowed to go near this fountain.”

Under the surging life energy, Maggie became energetic and immediately agreed cheerfully. The mayor’s miracles were really continuous. He felt that as long as he followed closely behind Su Chen, his future would be bright.

After understanding the function and usage of this fountain, Su Chen realized that it was a precious treasure. It was a necessary choice to protect it well.

The system reward for the mutated anesthetic was held in Su Chen’s hand. It was a small glass test tube, and the shaking transparent liquid could be clearly seen inside.

As a modern person from his previous life, Su Chen had long known the efficacy of the anesthetic used in surgery. The system must have produced something very powerful, he was thinking about how to test the power of this anesthetic.

If it was really powerful, he would have another trump card to deal with the alpha.

Emily was still sleeping on the bed. Su Chen casually summoned a guard and asked him to find a wife to look after Emily. He promised to pay her 20 copper coins..
