Chapter 248


    Liam sneered, “Right under everyone’s noses? Ask everyone if they have the same thoughts as


    me!”He was a rather influential figure in the field of western medicine, so when he said that, a few


    people instantly agreed with him, saying, “Yeah, I think this chap just got real lucky! He isn’t capable of


    such a thing!”“Exactly! How can anyone cure a person in a vegetative state on the spot? That’s just


    ridiculous!?”Alice was so furious that her face flushed brightly when she heard everyone’sments


    and spat, “Bah! All of you are so shameless!”“Don’t be mad, Alice.” Then, Kingsley smiled and


    responded, “Since they’re being so shameless, then we’ll shut their mouths.” After that, he drew out


    another long silver needle and said to Mateo, “Since you’re so keen to seek trouble, I’ll go along with


    your wishes!”Mateo couldn’t help but shiver and quiver as he gawked at the silver needle between


    Kingsley’s fingers, “W-What do you mean? What do you mean you’re going along with my


    wishes?”Kingsley ignored him as he swept his gaze over everyone at the scene and said in a cold


    voice, “You said that I just got lucky, so I’ll try my luck again! All of you better not blink, or you’ll just


    come up with excuses again!”Right after he said that, he struck with his silver needle again even before


    Mateo could react, and it hit him steadily right between his brows.“Wait—Ugh!” Before Mateo could


    finish his sentence, he fell to the floor with a loud thud again.Everyone including Liam were dumbstruck


    and speechless and Kingsley continued, “Professor yton, check carefully this time to see whether


    he’s in a vegetative state.”Kingsley’s icy cold voice sent a shiver down Liam’s spine, and he had


    goosebumps all over his skin. Is he a f*cking human or the devil?! How could he turn Mateo into a


    vegetable because of an argument?! Liam thought.And the most frightening part was that Kingsley


    could actually do what he said! With just a wave of his hand, he could turn a live person into an


    unconscious patient.Scared out of his wits, Liam stammered, “Y-Yes, he’s in a vegetative


    state…”“Okay, keep your eyes peeled, everyone!” Kingsley snorted as he applied the acupuncture


    treatment on Mateo once more. Ten minutester.“Ugh… What happened earlier?”Again, Mateo


    regained consciousness, and just as before, the same scene unfolded right in front of everyone’s eyes


    again.However, everyone wasn’t shocked anymore this time. Instead, they were filled with fear! I-Is heContent property of N?velDra/ma.Org.


    still a human? they wondered. He could easily turn a person into a vegetable and bring him back to life


    at will. Even the revival of Jesus isn’t as shocking as this!Kingsley looked around, keeping away his


    silver needles, and asked loudly, “Now, are you going to say that I became lucky again?”As far as he


    could see, everyone had lowered their heads in fear, and nobody had the guts to meet his eyes!“What’s


    wrong? Who am I? And where am I?” Mateo stood in a daze for a long while before finally gradually


    regaining his consciousness. He stumbled to Liam, sputtering in fear, “P-Professor yton, it felt as


    though I was dreaming earlier… D-Did he turn me into a vegetable again?”Silently, Liam nodded and


    didn’t say a thing. At that moment, he was drenched in cold sweat, and his legs shook like a leaf in the


    wind.For more than forty years, he had practiced medicine, and this was the first time he saw


    something so unbelievable!“Do you have anything else to say, Professor yton?” Aposed


    Kingsley cast his gaze on him. “Can youe up with other excuses?”“I-I…” He moved his parched


    lips to find something to say and finally came up with a reply, “I just want to know how you’re able to do


    all this…”When he asked this, everyone perked their ears because, although they were already scared


    out of their wits, they still wanted to hear the truth from Kingsley himself.Like an audience who had just


    watched an illusion show, they earnestly waited for the illusionist to reveal his secrets.He smiled faintly


    as he spoke, “It’s very simple. I just used the most simple acupuncture technique from traditional


    medicine!”Pin-drop silence washed over the crowd after the words left his lips.One second.Two


    seconds.Three seconds.Bang!Three secondster, the crowd broke out in a buzz!“Ancient healing! Did


    he say traditional medicine?!”“Did I hear him correctly? He actually used that outdated and primitive


    medical technique to create such a miracle?!”
