Chapter 283 Seeking help
"In fact, the real reason is that I am not strong enough. Now I am not a match for Big Mom. In order to save Wendy and her country, I must become stronger. Becoming stronger is not something that can be done overnight.
Only devil fruits can quickly improve my combat power in a short period of time, and I happen to know the whereabouts of a natural devil fruit.
I want to find that devil fruit! Eat it! Get more powerful! Only in this way can I face Big Mom, otherwise I will die!"
Vic did not hide anything from Dr. Yuejian and directly told him his true thoughts. There was no problem in telling anyone about it, and he believed that Dr. Yuejian would not tell anyone.
After hearing what Vic said, Dr. Yue Jian finally understood the real purpose of Vic looking for him. Vic was not only confident that he could defeat Big Mom, he was also under great pressure. However, even in the face of such pressure, he agreed to his partner without any hesitation.
And he not only agreed, he immediately took action to achieve this goal. He needed to find a powerful devil fruit to achieve his goal of becoming strong quickly.
What I can do to help Vic now is to test his bloodline factors, but I can't do such an easy and risk-free thing now!
Dr. Yuejian was full of self-blame, and his mind was working rapidly. He had to find a way to help Vic. He must help Vic in such an important time. He also decided to give Vic one of the intelligent robots he developed in the future. Dr. Yuejian recognized Vic and owed him a favor.
"Vic! There is another way to gather all the equipment needed for testing in a short period of time. Do you still remember that minotaur?
The captain of the country's guard team, if you go to him, you should be able to get these equipment. This country is a major medical country, and the testing equipment is the most advanced. It will be absolutely no problem to go to him, this is his character!"
Dalton's act of self-harming to save others also touched Dr. Yuejian, and even he couldn't help but give Dalton a thumbs up.
Vic is also the savior of Dalton and those doctors. As long as Vic asks Dalton for help, Dalton will never refuse. Even if he is short of money and cannot send the equipment directly, he will act as a middleman to help Vic buy it.
"Hmm? Does this country have these devices? That's great, Doctor. Please give me a list of the equipment you need! I'll go ask Dalton."
When Dr. Tsukimi said there was no equipment just now, Vic was still very disappointed. Things became a lot more complicated. If he hadn't heard Zero talk about the devil fruit before, he might have listened to Wendy and went directly to Sky Island!
But now that I know some guesses, I can't take risks. We only have one life, and we can't travel to another world every time we die.
It would take who knows how long to search for those devices now, so when Vic heard that Magnetic Drum Island had these devices, his mood immediately improved.
He was ready to rob the items, return them to those people after use, and then apologize and give some compensation. Testing must be done as it concerns his life and property.
"Okay, I'll write you a list right away."
Dr. Yuejian was also very excited now. He could help Vic. He quickly found a pen and paper and wrote down the equipment he needed. There were quite a few needed, so Dr. Yuejian wrote a long line before handing it to Vic.
Vic took the list and glanced at it. He had never heard of many of the equipment's names. Although he graduated with a degree in applied physics in his previous life, the medicine and science in this world were a little off. He couldn't guess what the names were for, so he couldn't figure out what they did. But this was not something he needed to consider now. There would naturally be professionals to help him choose when the time came.
Vic put away the list and went downstairs. Dr. Yue Mi also followed Vic to the first floor. Wendy and Kureha were a little curious about what Vic wanted to see Dr. Yue Mi, and they looked over when they saw the two of them coming down.
Wendy's eyes were full of curiosity. Kureha seemed to be nonchalant on the surface, but his eyes could not lie. They did not have the hobby of eavesdropping. Now the two of them were still in the same position as when Vic and the others went upstairs. Although they were not eavesdropping, their curiosity to know could not be killed.
"Wendy! I have to leave for a few days for something, but I'll still be on this island. I'll be back when I'm done. You should take good care of yourself here, and don't worry about anything else. We'll all be fine together!"
Vic didn't tell Wendy what he was going to do. It wasn't a big deal. The more he talked about it, the more she would think about it, adding a lot of useless emotions.
"Well, come back soon!"
Although Wendy was curious, she would not ask unless Vic said anything. She just needed to see a familiar figure in this strange place to feel safer.
She had been to the gates of hell, which had some impact on her mood. She wanted Vic to accompany her, but if Vic had something wrong at this time, it would definitely not be a simple matter. She had a vague guess that this matter was probably related to her.
"Well! I'll be back as soon as I'm done. You're still very weak, go to sleep. Sleeping is the best way to cultivate yourself!"
Vic touched Wendy's forehead and said softly that Wendy's fever had completely subsided, but her body still had some sequelae, which was what was meant by "the disease is gone like a thread being pulled out."
Wendy didn't say anything, she just stared at Vic's face and nodded, her eyes a little red. Vic rubbed Wendy's hair and stood up and walked towards Kureha.
The old witch with double glasses was sitting with her legs crossed, drinking wine and blowing directly from the bottle, acting like a pirate. Vic suspected that Kureha must have been a pirate when he was young.
"Dr. Kureha! Please take care of Wendy!"
Although Vic knew that Kureha took very meticulous care of the patient and would not stop until the patient fully recovered, and that he had also made a move in exchange, there was actually no need to specifically tell Kureha this.
But Kureha saved Wendy's life, which is far from being comparable to any other thing. Although an act of Vic is more important than life to some people, and can even save a country, is there any need to explain the importance of Wendy in Vic's eyes?
"Kid! Don't question my ethics as a doctor. Your words are an insult to me. Just remember what you promised me. Get lost!"
Kureha exhaled a breath of alcohol and said in dissatisfaction, wondering if it was because Vic did not satisfy her curiosity that she was deliberately taking revenge.
Vic was speechless, his mouth twitching slightly. I didn't believe you, you old woman, you are so mean. Is your ethics to empty out other people's houses after treating their illnesses? That's really very ethical!
