“Miss Shining, although I’m not a healthcare professional, I can tell that Miss Nightingale’s injuries are very severe. However, we cannot ignore her psychological issues, either. My clan’s diagnosis method relies on inspection, listening and smelling, inquiring, and palpation. I can tell that she suffers from depression to some degree. Perhaps she has suffered severe mental trauma. I can’t address this aspect; you are probably the only person who can. I can tell Miss Nightingale values you greatly.”

[TL Note: The diagnosis methods Chen Heng mentioned are the physical examination steps from traditional Chinese medicine. In contrast, modern Western medicine’s physical examination uses inspection, palpation, auscultation, and percussion. Even similar aspects of the physical examination might differ. For example, in traditional Chinese medicine, palpation involves taking the pulse and reading the pulse’s characteristics, while in modern Western medicine, palpation refers to feeling the body with the hands. Here are links to more information on the physical examinations for both types: Traditional Chinese Medicine: https://www.polyu.edu.hk/en/uhs/our-services/chinese-medicine/four-diagnostic-methods and modern Western medicine: https://www.lecturio.com/blog/medical/physical-examination-learning-how-to-assess-patients/.]

Every peak martial artist would know some basic medical skills; otherwise, they would ruin their bodies with their practice. Chen Heng had a cursory understanding of medical skills, as he had to concoct his own medicinal baths to use after practicing.

“This…I will do my best. I have been working on this with Nearl, but…”

[TL Note: Here is more information on Nearl: https://arknights.fandom.com/wiki/Nearl/Story.]

“Alright. I get the basic picture. It looks like she is another person with a story. However, this problem still has to be treated. She is my first patient, and I even used secret medicine. Wouldn’t it be embarrassing if I could not completely cure her?” Nightingale was truly Chen Heng’s first proper patient. If he could not even cure an ordinary person…well, he had his pride.

“The…the first?” Shining felt dumbfounded upon hearing this. The first patient? Is he reliable? Shining suddenly felt worried for Nightingale.

However, she remembered Nightingale’s earlier reaction and stopped worrying.

“That’s right, the first, so take this.” Chen Heng took out another bottle from his pocket and tossed it to Shining.

“This…is a secret medicine too?” Shining saw that this bottle was smaller than the earlier one and checked with Chen Heng.

“It is and isn’t at the same time. You could call it a secret medicine, as no one outside my clan can make it. However, you can’t call it a secret medicine, as it does not have any special effects other than calming the mind.” While Chen Heng called it a secret medicine, it was actually the Calming Pill that Energy Refinement Realm cultivators would use to enter a meditative state quickly. This was something that was readily found in the hidden world, which only new Energy Refinement Realm cultivators would use.

However, credit where credit was due, while this pill was common, it wasn’t useless. In reality, this pill had good effects.

Of course, Chen Heng had better stuff. However, how could he give something like the higher-grade Meditation Pill to a stranger after giving that stranger the Wood Spiritual Pills? The Calming Pill was already sufficient.

“Thank you! Truly, thank you very much.”

“There’s no need to thank me. Although these things are precious to you, they are just ordinary items to me. By the way, you’d best not to let others know about these or obtain them. Otherwise, it will bring about a lot of trouble. At the very least, Miss Nightingale won’t get sufficient medicine and cannot fully recover from her injuries. At worst, people will try to assassinate us.”

While Chen Heng made it sound very dangerous, the truth was he preferred to avoid trouble. If he had to prevent people from researching the pills after they obtained them, he would have to personally deal with all who knew about it. Thus, he could only exaggerate the consequences.

After all, this was not his world. If these two bottles of medicine leaked, the chain reaction might even change this world’s development direction. Chen Heng would be guilty of a great crime, then. Although such a development was highly unlikely, he still had to be careful.

He Who Knows Fate: Kal’tsit, is there a gun range here?

Kal’tsit: There is. Where are you now?

He Who Knows Fate: I just left Nightingale’s intensive care ward.

Kal’tsit: Do you remember the way to the canteen?

He Who Knows Fate: I do.

Kal’tsit: Do you recall the lab where they tested the power of your sniper rifle? It is right beside that lab. There is a range there prepared for Snipers. By the way, if you are practicing with guns, you have to provide your own bullets.

He Who Knows Fate: That stingy?

Kal’tsit: It is not a problem of being stingy. In my world, guns and explosives are very expensive. Most Snipers use crossbows. Very few people use guns. Have you not noticed yet?

He Who Knows Fate: It would be strange if I noticed. I’ve only been in this world for one day, and I have been rushing around. I’m either taking some test or on the way to a test. After I finally finished all that testing, I went to treat that Nightingale.

Kal’tsit: Ahem… My world’s technological tree is somewhat different from yours. In my world, guns are known as firearms and are incredibly precious. Practically all who use guns are Laterans, as they invented guns. Guns occasionally make it to the market but are extremely expensive. As a result, bullets are also extremely expensive. Furthermore, the bullets here are not ordinary bullets but special bullets forged with Originium: etched bullets.

Kal’tsit: As of now, no faction besides Laterano can provide their staff with an unlimited supply of bullets. Even in Laterano, not everyone can use firearms. Permission is required.

[Author Note: For example, Adnachiel (https://arknights.fandom.com/wiki/Adnachiel), a Lateran Sankta who has yet to be permitted to use a firearm.]

He Who Knows Fate: Alright, alright. I got it. Fortunately, my sniper rifle has unlimited bullets.

Kal’tsit: Remember not to give your Electromagnetic Sniper Rifle an extra boost when practicing. Don’t let what happened this morning happen again.

He Who Knows Fate: But my Electromagnetic Sniper Rifle is powerful in the first place. It is not something that can be achieved just by omitting the boost.

Kal’tsit: …Don’t you have other guns?

He Who Knows Fate: But the other guns don’t feel as good…never mind. I got it. I’ll use an ordinary gun for practice.

Efreet: Is He Who Knows Fate changing professions? Why are you suddenly thinking of using guns?

He Who Knows Fate: Don’t say that. I am a Sniper operator in Kal’tsit’s world.

Solomon: A Sniper operator who uses meteors as bullets? Who can survive that?

He Who Knows Fate: Ah! No! It is because Kal’tsit said my style is different from that of her world. Furthermore, my strength far surpasses what is normal. That’s why I became a Sniper.

Solomon: He Who Knows Fate, I recall you are a swordsman. Why don’t you use that?

He Who Knows Fate: Just think about it. As a Sniper, if someone wants to deal with me, they would have to get close, right? What if that person gets close, and I manifest a forty-meter-long iron-sand bayonet for a melee fight? He will be stunned, right?

Efreet: A forty-meter-long iron-sand bayonet?

He Who Knows Fate: Exactly. It is the result of Reincarnator 9527’s Electromagnetic Control ability. Didn’t the mission say I could choose one ability? I chose his Electromagnetic Control. Right now, I can control iron sand to extend forty meters from the muzzle of the sniper rifle to form a high-frequency-vibrating iron-sand bayonet. When I swing the bayonet down, I can even split a one-hundred-meter-tall building.
