Chapter 1 The Attitude of Doctor Carly

The female physician named Carly was very firm in her request to observe. Li Ang and his teammates exchanged glances but didn't directly refuse her.

After entering the small room, they sat down. With an outsider present, none of the other teammates spoke, and the atmosphere became silent.

Li Ang glanced at the female physician Carly and noticed that she and her assistant were holding paper and pens, ready to record the conversation.

They were probably afraid that these Eastern monks would resort to tricks.

Li Ang didn't care at all and discussed Princess Anna's current condition with his teammates as normal.

Congenital heart disease is a type of congenital malformation, referring to abnormalities in the development of the heart and great vessels during the embryonic development period. It can be simply divided into cyanotic and non-cyanotic types (the standard for judgment is whether cyanotic patients have bluish lips, fingertips, and nails). The latter is easier to cure.

After the examination just now, Li Ang judged that Princess Anna's heart disease was non-cyanotic, specifically a ventricular septal defect, pulmonary artery stenosis, and aortic coarctation.

Several teammates who had no medical experience in the real world looked completely bewildered. John Joyce, who had at least learned a little first aid knowledge, cautiously asked, "Is the situation very bad?"

Li Ang spread his hands and said indifferently, "To put it bluntly, any one of these three could be fatal. Princess Anna has lived this long entirely due to luck and the effectiveness of magical potions. However, now, the complications are almost unstoppable."

The female physician Carly, who was listening nearby, silently recorded something. In fact, they weren't completely ignorant of Princess Anna's condition.

The spellcasters in the fairy tale world had, to some extent, made up for the lagging development of surgical procedures. Physicians were able to use spiritual sense detection methods to depict the specific image of Princess Anna's heart without opening her chest.

And, combined with healthy executed prisoners' autopsy cases, they had found the abnormalities in Princess Anna's heart.

But knowing the cause didn't mean they could solve it.

Even on Earth, the development of cardiac surgery was extremely difficult. Austrian doctor Theodor Billroth, known as the "Father of Surgery," once bluntly stated that "performing surgery on the heart is a desecration of surgical art," believing that the heart was God's domain, and humans were powerless to defy it.

John Joyce thought for a moment and softly asked, "So, is there a treatment plan?"

Li Ang pondered for a moment and slowly said, "Rāsuzende nyūpī."

???

Including the female physician Carly, everyone looked bewildered.

Li Ang had just spoken in Japanese katakana.

But it wasn't Japanese at all. To be precise, he was using Japanese katakana (a type of syllabic script) as pinyin. The actual meaning, when read out, was the Chinese phrase "Nà shì zhēn de niú pī." (That's really awesome.)

Li Ang had long discovered that the Killing Game system's translation function was extremely comprehensive and powerful, capable of accurately translating some colloquialisms, idioms, and proverbs, faithfully to the natives of the script world.

However, this translation system also had drawbacks. If players deliberately played with words, mixing multiple languages and even modern internet slang together, the difficulty for the native residents to understand would greatly increase.

For example, now, Li Ang began to use Japanese katakana, Korean, Russian, and other syllabic scripts as pinyin, adapted into Chinese, and after saying it, it was translated by the Killing Game translation system and relayed to his teammates.

In John Joyce and others' ears, the words Li Ang spoke were inflected, full of strange accents, but they could still barely understand the specific meaning.

In the ears of the female physician and others, the words Li Ang spoke became very strange.

It was like a college entrance exam English listening test. Clearly, every word could be understood, but it just felt incoherent and difficult to understand the meaning.

For example, the first sentence was still a simple "Hello Li Lei! Hello Han Meimei!"

The second sentence became "Nǐ yān diàn hē fēng dān jìng kù ǎi wò chuǎn duǒ gōng yān è wěi ě duō dìng?" (Are you castrating and lifting the wind, bearing the static library, short and lying, trembling and dodging, bowing, and evil taste?)

It was about that kind of feeling.

What was worse was that Li Ang would occasionally use Korean and Russian pinyin, and then say it in Japanese anime slang,

The overall style was similar to "Chotto matte, is there something wrong with talking like this? Ne, tell me. Souka, you guys already don't like it, you're so cold, gomen nasai, sorry for showing you something unpleasant. Ano, should someone like me just disappear? Maybe only in the world of anime is there true beauty, ne ne ne?"

The anime flavor in these words was just too strong,

"Ne ne ne" endlessly.

John Joyce, who had lived in Yin City for a while, felt uncomfortable all over listening to it, wishing he could stand up and slap Li Ang, scolding him, "Ne, your head, you're singing Wang Leehom's 'Change Myself' here?"

Just from the first sentence, you know he's an old anime fan.

In short, as unpleasant as it was to hear, Li Ang's newly created way of speaking was still very effective. The natives of the script world were completely confused, but his teammates could barely understand Li Ang's meaning.

Roughly, it was that the existing medical conditions in the script world were not enough for Li Ang to complete this high-difficulty cardiac surgery, even with magical potions and extraordinary materials.

However, if he changed his approach and didn't do surgery, but instead re-created a heart (that is, using a bio-template), the difficulty would be reduced instead.

Of course, Li Ang didn't reveal the matter of the bio-template to them, only saying that in the following time, he would propose a medical plan to Princess Anna,

But the surgery required full preparation. During this time, the players needed to collect all the clues about the Ice Queen's palace and the magic mirror.

If the surgery could be performed in the palace, or if they could directly meet the Ice Queen, that would be best.

After discussing the countermeasures, Li Ang switched back to his usual way of speaking and said to the female physician Carly, "We have a preliminary medical plan, which is basically a combination of Eastern mysterious rituals and advanced Eastern surgery.

It will be divided into steps and courses of treatment to gradually solve the Princess's heart disease."

"Understood."

Carly nodded, "What can we do?"

Li Ang said calmly, "The Eastern mysterious rituals required for the surgery need a large amount of extraordinary materials. Because Eastern and Western elements are incompatible, I will write down a list later, and you will collect as many similar materials as possible according to the material requirements on the list.

My disciples will assist you in the selection."

John Joyce and the others' hearts stirred. That list must have demands like "mirrors with magic" - Li Ang originally wanted his subordinates to actively collect information for them.

And no matter how the surgery progressed, 99% of those collected extraordinary materials would fall into Li Ang's pocket anyway - the script natives didn't know how the so-called Eastern mysterious rituals actually worked.
