Chapter 177 - Hospital Again (2/2)

It stabbed into Roland’s hand like shards of gla.s.s before it melted into his flesh and blood.

Roland sensed that a cold breeze was spreading throughout his body quickly from his right hand.

It was really cold.

He shook his head. He didn’t feel anything wrong except for the coldness.

Roland descended from the beam via the ladder and put the ladder back where it’d been.

He walked out of the hall. He was wondering what he had just touched, when he suddenly felt that his legs were wobbly. Then, he felt that he lost all his strength.

His legs shaking, he hurried to sit down on the stairs.

He touched his forehead. His body temperature was normal.

He touched his chest, only to notice that his heart was beating fast, and the air he breathed out was hot too.

Was that thing really poisonous? Roland smiled bitterly. At this moment, the world was swirling before him, as if he were drunk or having a stroke.

It’s really poisonous?

Roland smiled wider. He had been prudent enough to grab that thing when it was in its minimal size and was about to disappear.

However, it turned out to be fatal nonetheless.

At this moment, Roland saw a child. Though he couldn’t see the child clearly, he recognized him to be one of his nephews. He hurried to call him: “Deshui, fetch some water for me. I’m feeling queasy.”

The simplest solution for poisoning was to drink water.

After a shock, the boy immediately ran back to the village.

The world was spinning faster and faster. Roland struggled to take out his phone and tried to make an emergency call, when his head became dizzy and he fell into darkness.

After he didn’t know how long, Roland opened his eyes.

He saw a white ceiling, as well as a fan hanging there.

He looked around and saw iron bunks and white sheets. He also smelled intense disinfectants.

Ugh… I’m in the hospital again.

With a bitter smile, Roland was about to sit up when his mother came in. Seeing that Roland was up, she approached him and said angrily, “Don’t sit up. Just lie there.”

His mother seemed angry, but she was actually relieved.

Roland looked around again and saw n.o.body but himself in the ward. Also, there was an IV in his arm.

“What happened to me?

“You scared me.” His mother’s eyes were bloodshot. “Back in the village, Deshui ran to us and shouted that you pa.s.sed out. We came to you and couldn’t wake you up. We called an ambulance and sent you to a hospital, but the doctor found nothing wrong after all the tests. He said that your symptoms are like those of oxygen intoxication and that you only need some rest.”

Oxygen intoxication? De-adaptation to high alt.i.tude?

Roland’s eyes widened. “It’s not like I came down from Mount Everest. Why would I get oxygen intoxication?”

“That’s what we said too.” His mother snorted. “But the doctor couldn’t find any illness after the examinations.”

Roland was lost for words.

At this point, Roland’s father came in with a male doctor.

Unemotionally, the doctor looked at Roland’s pupils, examined his tongue, and tested Roland’s body temperature, before he said, “It seems that you’re fine. Go back now. It’s only a waste of money if you stay here.”

Roland’s mother said worriedly, “Doctor, why don’t you let him stay here for the night. His illness was too weird.”

“We really can’t find any problem. It probably should only be oxygen intoxication. He’ll be fine after a few days’ rest. Staying here won’t make him recover faster.” The doctor left after he said that.

Having no choice, Roland checked out from the hospital with his family.

He didn’t feel much when he was in bed, but the moment he got up, he felt weak and dizzy.

It was past 21:00 after he returned home. Roland had some porridge and then crawled into the game cabin.

Soon, he fell asleep and entered the game.

In the game, he felt that his body was as strong as before, utterly unaffected by his weakness in reality.“So, the soul is really not affected by the body?” Roland warmed himself up as he murmured to himself.

Then, he saw that people were talking in the guild system and the other guys of F6 were pinging him.

Schuck: “I saw the girl Li Lin mentioned. Her name is Night Tide Sands, right? She’s not bad at all.”

Brazil: “I think so too. She’s definitely going to make a great wife. Most importantly, she behaved normally when she saw Schuck.”

Husseret: “She’s beautiful and graceful, almost as good as Schuck’s wife.”

Raffel: “Keep it up, Roland. We’re expecting to celebrate your wedding in a year.”

Were they at the saber arts club this afternoon? Roland scratched his head and replied in the guild channel, “She doesn’t like me. Don’t talk as if we’re a couple!”

He then turned off the guild channel and found Vivian. “I’m traveling to Isnas later. You’re going to run the Magic Tower and the manor for me.”
