Chapter 161: Chapter 162: Troubles After Class Change (Vote for monthly tickets, extra updates for the Moonlight Sanctuary Alliance Hierarch!)

Chen Cang rubbed his hands together, for now was the time for the real rewards!

[Ding! Congratulations, you have killed a King-level gallbladder monster, and obtained the following rewards: 1. Surgery Simulation Stone x5; 2. Bai Qiuen’s surgical cap; 3. Job-change task completion item; 4. Clinical level +2; 5. Skill Book!]

Chen Cang saw a purple light flash by, and several items appeared in front of him.

Seeing the items flickering with purple light, Chen Cang felt a bit inflated with pride!

[Surgery Simulation Stone: Consumable. Using it automatically records the patient’s surgical situation and stores it in the stone. Activating it allows for simulated surgeries, which greatly improves the success rate of surgeries through continuous simulation. Note: A Surgery Simulation Stone can only simulate one type of surgery and will disappear after use. Currently: 5 stones!] This is a great thing!

For example, in the surgery just now, if I hadn’t had the guidance of a master, could I, Chen Cang, guarantee a high success rate of the surgery?

Ten percent?

Twenty percent?

Anyway, the success rate could have been extremely low!

Facing such complex medical conditions, complications could arise anytime and anywhere during the surgery, and there might be more than one potential complication. In such cases, who could guarantee a successful surgery?!

That’s also the reason Qian Liang, Liu Siqi, and others refused…

Nobody was willing to take that risk. To be honest, without the “Expert Guidance,” I, Chen Cang, might not have been able to perform the surgery well either.

The gap in skill was just too wide…

The appearance of the Surgery Simulation Stone didn’t just signify something minor; it represented five living lives!

Thinking of this, Chen Cang couldn’t help but feel a surge of excitement!

The second item was Bai Qiuen’s surgical cap. Bai Qiuen again?

[Bai Qiuen’s surgical cap: Purple equipment, Bai Qiuen’s surgical cap, Alertness +8 (80% increase in alertness duration). Maintaining a clear head at all times is a doctor’s most basic quality! The cap takes effect automatically once worn. Ding, a Bai Qiuen’s surgical robe is detected, obtaining three Bai Qiuen equipment pieces will grant you the Bai Qiuen’s Possession (once a week)!] Chen Cang was momentarily stunned!

Bai Qiuen’s Possession?

Is this skill powerful?

Who the hell is Bai Qiuen and what use is his possession?

It might be the benefit of a big shot in some field, but obtaining another piece of Bai Qiuen’s equipment would be challenging…

Among the following items, Chen Cang’s favorite was undoubtedly the job-change task item!

Without this, Chen Cang wouldn’t even know how to consider the task completed!

[Job-change task item: Purple, using this item to complete a job-change will automatically grant you a professional skill at the Grandmaster level!]

Chen Cang’s eyes lit up, it definitely was a fine item!

You have to know, what he’s concerned about most right now is the job change! What is a job change?

Will anything be different after a job change?

With these thoughts, Chen Cang eagerly took out the job-change certificate and activated it automatically!

[Ding! You have gained a purple job-change task item, the job change task is complete, successfully changing jobs, and your thoracic surgery skill tree will now open!]

[Job change successful, level restrictions lifted, you are automatically promoted to Attending Physician. Current Level: 25, Unassigned Free Skill Points: 10.]

[Chen Cang: Level: 25 (Attending Physician).

Professional Specialty: Thoracic Surgery.

Skill Points: 10 points.

Thoracic skill tree.

Note: Spend skill points to actively learn new skills from the thoracic skill tree!]

When Chen Cang saw the thoracic skill tree, he couldn’t help but grow curious, what’s in the skill tree?

Chen Cang clicked on the skill tree, and suddenly the view before him changed!

Thoracic surgery branches:

[Chest Trauma Surgery], [Mediastinal Surgery], [Diaphragm Surgery], [Esophageal Surgery], [Tracheal Surgery], [Lung Surgery], [Pleural Surgery], [Chest Wall Surgery].

These are all types of diseases within thoracic surgery. Chen Cang clicked on each of the branches, finding that each category had a detailed skill grading.

There were all sorts from level one to four, and even… at the highest level, Chen Cang discovered surgeries above level four.

However, these surgeries all displayed: ???

They indicated that Chen Cang’s level was insufficient!

Instantly, Chen Cang was dumbfounded.

Aren’t surgeries supposed to only go up to level four?

What are these surgeries that are higher than level four?

Could it be that these skills represent advanced surgeries that are ahead of the world’s standards?

At this thought, Chen Cang immediately felt a rush of excitement within him.

Given enough time, if he learned these surgeries, how badass would that be!

Badass! Advancing in one’s job is just badass!

At the very least, it guaranteed my path to godhood, ensuring that even at my worst, I could become a grandmaster in the field of thoracic surgery, innovating badass surgeries, leading the trends of the era, and being adored by countless medical students…

Taking a deep breath, Chen Cang calmed himself down.

After reflecting carefully, he sort of understood what was happening.

Advancing in one’s job meant unlocking the skill tree for that field.

Up until now, Chen Cang had been blindly catching mice, stumbling around and acquiring completely random skills.

Now, by clicking on the skill tree, he could actively pursue the particular skills he needed.

And at this moment, skill points became the exclusive currency to learn the skills!

Looking at such a complex array of skills, Chen Cang suddenly realized that he did not have enough skill points!

Moreover, Chen Cang discovered that learning a level one surgical skill required one skill point, level two required two points, level three four points, and level four surgeries needed eight points.

These were just the basics after learning!

After acquiring them, if you want to upgrade your skill levels, you would also need to expend skill points, and so… how could there be enough skill points for all this!

Moreover, Chen Cang now realized one thing: it was getting harder and harder to obtain skill points.

That is, for each level he went up, he would gain one skill point. With that being the case, when would he ever learn all these skills?

At this thought, Chen Cang couldn’t help but sigh.

So hard!

I originally thought that after advancing in my job I wouldn’t exactly smash the heavens or the earth or the air, but I would at least become badass, right?

Now it seems that I’ve realized, no matter when, if you want to be badass, you must pay up!

Chen Cang suddenly missed the era of Ma Baba; at least the game gave you the chance to pay to become stronger, but now? I don’t even know how to grow stronger…

10 skill points, which seems like a lot, can actually only be used to learn two level three thoracic surgery skills.

This is just… too pitiful, isn’t it?

Chen Cang suddenly realized that this was just like playing an online game, excitedly succeeding in advancing your job, only to find you don’t have the money to learn the skills that come after the job change. It’s an utterly tear-jerking situation!

[Ding! Because you used a purple job advancement item, you’ve successfully advanced your job and automatically gained one master-level thoracic surgery skill. You may choose one (third level and below surgery).]

[Ding! You’ve successfully advanced your job and have become a chief thoracic surgeon. Given that you’re not very familiar with thoracic diseases, the system will train you to quickly understand and master thoracic diseases. Do you wish to begin training?]

Chen Cang stubbornly shook his head. I don’t want to train. I want to pay to grow stronger. I want to level up while sitting around, to become overpowered while sleeping. I don’t want to read, I don’t want to go to class… I don’t want to learn medicine anymore… It’s so exhausting…

Whimper…

PS: Let me explain the attributes of the items here.

An item attribute +1, such as Sharpness +1, brings a 10% sharpness increase.

Bai Qiuen’s surgical cap, with Clarity +8, would improve clarity by 80%; for example, if you could maintain a high level of concentration for 5 hours during surgery, now you could last up to 9 hours.

Similarly, Stamina +3 means your physical fitness will increase by thirty percent, and Stability +1 represents a ten percent improvement over your usual stability.

None of these will be overwhelmingly powerful, so everyone can rest assured that the protagonist will never punch through Earth or slice through the fabric of space with a scalpel to ascend directly.

At most, life will get a bit more interesting. At least, we can’t let our protagonist be sent off for dissection, right…
