Plague Doctor

When Chen Wenwei's operation reached the critical step of cutting off, Gao Guohong and others exited the operating room first, leaving Gu Jun alone to operate.

Under the varying gazes of the researchers, Gu Jun used a cutter to penetrate the drill holes in the skull and completed the cutting of nerve fibers at three locations on this side.

But this time, nothing happened.

Chen Wenwei's electroencephalogram had already become calm before. The more locations he cut off, the calmer he became, returning to a deep hypnotic state.

Afterwards, Gao Guohong and others came into the operating room again and worked with Gu Jun to close the skull and suture it. This notoriously barbaric operation was finally completed.

In Gu Jun's mind, the system popped up prompt boxes continuously:

"You participated in a successful two-star surgery [lobotomy], and your personal contribution ranked 1st out of 45."

"Your Tranquility Hand proficiency has increased by +300, and your current level is the second level (2970030000 proficiency)"

Gu Jun's consciousness looked at the word "success" and knew that it only meant that the operation was successful. It had indeed damaged the patient's frontal lobe, but it was unknown whether it would have any effect.

Neurosurgery is not as simple as a parasite removal—clean it up and be done with it, especially this kind of resection.

He looked at the reminder of Tai Ran's hands again. He had never slacked off the training of these hands these days, and he was finally about to break through to the third level.

Chen Wenwei's vital signs were stable and everyone could walk out of the operating room with confidence. Only then did Gu Jun hear about the situation of Sikou, the surgeon, and others. The four people, Song Yilong and others who were unconscious at the time, all suffered from cerebral hemorrhage of varying degrees, and they were all being rescued in the operating room.

Gu Jun's heart was troubled by this, but he couldn't just worry about other people's conditions, but he also had to brace himself for the next resection.

Mai Lei in the middle stage and Yang Jianming in the late stage require his participation in the surgeries of these two patients. Now he is the only one suitable to perform the cutting step.

During the break, Professor Qin came to the rest area to interview him and asked: "Ajun, Chen Wenwei read that sentence during the surgery, what do you think?"

"I don't know..." Gu Jun could only shake his head, feeling a little confused about this, "Let's see what Mr. Tong says."

After chatting with Professor Qin for a while, he went to the washing and disinfection room to perform sterile treatment again, and then went to another special clean operating room.

In the next few hours, the command center and research institute were still busy. Professor Qin has been on the phone with Yao Shinian, Tong Ye and others. Now the sentence on his parents' note provided by Gu Jun has proved that the nightmare disease is related to Tong Ye's case back then and to the mysterious cult.

At the same time, Gu Jun continued to work hard in the operating room, making incisions, dissections, and drillings with Chief Surgeon Gao and others, but he completed every cut alone.

[Lobotomy, two stars, successful, personal contribution ranked 1 out of 40]

[Lobotomy, two stars, successful, personal contribution ranked 1st out of 38]

After two surgeries, all the researchers were relieved, disappointed, and puzzled that Chen Wenwei's situation did not recur.

They were relieved because nothing happened. According to Gu Jun and the others, there was no special mental pressure. The disappointment is that they do not have the same clinical manifestations, and it seems that it cannot support a previous conjecture-that destroying the patient's prefrontal lobe can interrupt the patient's spiritual connection with the mysterious existence on the other side.

The suspicion is that that kind of situation is either only experienced by early-stage patients, or it is because Chen Wenwei has a special characteristic.

Chen Wenwei also has the surname Chen. Could it be related to the Chen family in Nantang Village? But he is not a native of Dongzhou.

In order to get the answer, the Medical Department immediately arranged for another mild patient named Zou Xinyue to undergo surgery. This was a young female patient.

Soon, the fourth lobotomy of the day was performed, and Gu Jun once again served as the second assistant and the only amputee.

When the operation reached the cutting stage, he was the only medical staff member left in the spacious operating room.

The light of the shadowless lamp was very bright, and the camera was filming. Gu Jun felt a little confused, and the hand holding the long handle of the cutter even tightened.

"I have a strange feeling that the patient may have a reaction..." He said solemnly, "It feels like the patient's mental power is still strong in the early stage and has not been devoured yet, so he can burst out with that kind of power..."

He took a deep breath. After these operations, his already weak mental energy was almost exhausted.

But it's not time to rest yet! Gu Jun suddenly pulled down the cutter tab.

Suddenly, the female patient under general anesthesia on the operating table opened her cloudy eyes, her lifeless face twitched slightly, and her electroencephalogram became crazy...

For this experiment, her mouth was not gagged with gauze, and no local anesthesia was applied anywhere.

"ph'nglui..." The strange and hoarse voice appeared again like a devil's whisper. Her voice was almost the same as Chen Wenwei's, with an indescribable buzzing sound, like a damaged tape playing, and She said the same thing: "mgl'nafh..."

As soon as Gu Jun heard the beginning of this, he felt a mental shock wave hit him. He gritted his teeth and immediately gagged her, injected her with anesthesia, and then immediately cut her off!

There was an inexplicable anger in his heart, burning his spirit to resist those attacks.

From strange banyan disease to nightmare disease, everything is inseparable from the mysterious figure of his mother...

But this time, the researchers all understood. It seemed that the reason was not that there was anything special about Chen Wenwei, but that it was the early stage of the disease.

Does it happen once the brain is damaged? Or does it only happen if the prefrontal lobe of the brain is damaged? This still requires surgery to test.

While Gu Jun and the others were continuing the resection, a bilateral cingulum destruction surgery was also scheduled, and the target of the surgery was also a mild-stage patient.

Bilateral cingulum destruction surgery is suitable for treating intractable pain associated with various psychiatric symptoms and is a safe and effective formal surgery. There is not much difficulty and great psychological pressure for the neurosurgery experts here.

"You participated in a successful two-star surgery [lobotomy], and your personal contribution ranked 1st out of 41."

Gu Jun came out of this operating room. Although he was exhausted physically and mentally, he immediately rushed to another operating room to watch and participate in the destructive surgery.

From the beginning to the end of the operation, the patient did not experience any abnormalities.

Researchers from various places have discussed again. It seems that not all damage to all parts can trigger a reaction, but not the bilateral cingulate gyrus.

However, whether it can only be caused by the prefrontal lobe of the brain requires some surgery to verify, and it will take time to determine the efficacy.

It was already evening that day, and the operations on Song Yilong and the four others were completed at noon, but they were still unconscious and were all admitted to the intensive care unit.

"Ajun, you should go back to the dormitory and rest first." Professor Qin said to Gu Jun, "Guotong wants you to have a good sleep and replenish your mental strength before taking the next step."

Professor Qin still had many things to be busy with, so he left after saying that. Gu Jun sat on a chair in the rest area and rested, closing his sleepy eyes, unwilling to move for a while.

No one around him bothered him, and he walked lightly as he walked by.

After resting for a while, Gu Jun had time to pay attention to the system prompt box information.

He had no contribution from the damage technique just now, but after four resections, his contribution had accumulated to 164, and the difficult task - the task was completed.

"There are mission rewards waiting to be claimed: 1 pair of Carlop brand anatomical scissors, click to claim your reward"

"Your Tranquility Hand proficiency has increased, +100, second level (3000030000 proficiency)"

"The level of your calm hand has increased, and it is now the third level!"
