Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1263 “Hah! What do you even mean by that? Fine then. If you successfully cure the illness, then I’ll doanything you order me to!” scoffed Walbridge.

From how casually he had made that decision, it was evident that he thought that it was going to beimpossible for Gerald to save all those babies who were already near death.

Hearing that, Gerald simply nodded before heading off to the isolation room together with Jace and thedean.

Only three people were allowed to enter this time, and Gerald had a change of clothes before settingfoot into the isolation room with the duo from before.

By then, all the babies had already stopped crying, and the room was eerily silent. From a glance,Gerald could see that not only were their complexions dark, but their bodies all looked swollen. Eventhe babies’ lips appeared cracked.

Seeing those symptoms and how close those babies were to death, Gerald confirmed that it truly wasthe effects of the Soul Eater technique! From what he could guess from the damage done, the babiesmust have only experienced a third of the Soul Eater technique’s power.

His deduction explained why their bodies were all looking so swollen. It was due to all the water in theirbodies being sapped right out. With barely any means to cool their internal organs down, high feverswere simply inevitable!

“…How utterly cruel…!” growled Gerald under his breath.

If Gerald truly wished to heal them, he knew that acupuncture alone wasn’t going to be sufficient. Inorder to ensure that there was going to be a smooth flow of oxyblood pellets within them in the future,

Gerald had no choice but to use the Soul Eater technique to make up for their lost oxyblood.

However, he was also aware that the second he did that, his identity would surely be exposed since hehadn’t found the Zircobsite yet. Once that happened, Queena would definitely come running over tohunt him down. Should he get caught, he knew he wouldn’t even come close to rivaling her strength.

Gritting his teeth, Gerald reminded himself that even if that was going to be the case, it was still moreimportant to save these lives. Since Gerald had already drained the oxyblood of several adults beforethis, he knew that he probably had enough to save all of them. As for revealing his location toQueena… He could still use the blood in the jade talisman to deal with that for at least another night.

Since Queena was at her most fragile now, she shouldn’t be as scary as she previously had been! Withthat in mind, Gerald immediately began taking action.

Standing before the baby closest to him, Gerald took a single silver needle and began rapidly—butlightly—pricking on multiple spots on the baby’s chest. The spots were by no means random, and alleighteen areas that he pricked were part of the heavenly meridian, the core meridian, and the primemeridian.

There was barely any hesitation in between each prick, and Gerald’s movements were so fluid that italmost seemed like he was performing some kind of magic show. Zane himself—who had beenstanding next to Gerald—couldn’t help but feel slightly dumbfounded.

Turning to look at Jace, he was surprised to see how captivated the old doctor seemed to be overGerald’s perfect needle techniques.

Regardless, once Gerald was done, he quickly snuck his hand under the quilt and held onto the baby’swrist. With the Soul Eater technique, he then immediately began regulating and replenishing the child’soxyblood.

“…Alright, this one’s safe now. Remember to properly cover the quilt over the baby! Now remove theclothes off the baby on Bed 2 and bring him to me! Quickly! We don’t have much time!” ordered Gerald.

“…What? That was it?” asked Zane, his eyes widened.

“Yes, now hurry on with the next baby!”

“…R-right!” replied Zane with a nod before running off to do as he was told.

“…That… Is that…! Divine Acupuncture Therapy?!” shouted an old doctor in surprise. He had beensolemnly observing them through the isolation room’s glass window for a while now, though Gerald’simmense skill had clearly flabbergasted him.

“Divine Acupuncture Therapy, Dr. Lisle?” asked another observer in slight dissatisfaction, though hehad to admit that the kid was really good at performing acupuncture.

“Indeed! Divine Acupuncture Therapy is an acupuncture technique that was supposedly lost to time!According to rumors, Sawyer Wytt is the only person proficient in handling up to three steps of thistechnique!” explained the excited old doctor who hadn’t noticed the expression on the vice dean’s face.

“…Could he be Sawyer Wytt’s apprentice? No, that’s not right! As you’ve said, Sawyer is only proficientwith three steps! But that kid there is capable of using up to eighteen! How terrifying!” exclaimedanother old doctor who was familiar with the technique.

As several other old doctors—who recognized the technique—began clapping their hands in admirationas they continued staring wide-eyed, it was evident that there were still several people who were still indisbelief.

“He’s still pretty young, isn’t he? How could he possibly know how to use such a sophisticatedacupuncture technique?” asked one of the skeptics.

“I’ll have you know that there’s no doubt about it! He truly is using the Divine Acupuncture Therapytechnique! After all, I witnessed Mr. Sawyer Wytt using the technique while I was attending a seminar afew months ago! From what I observed, the needle that he used was exactly the same as the oneGerald’s currently using! The needle itself is an inch long, and while performing a demonstration of thetechnique, he lifted and vented it three times before using the Phoenix Technique to remove theneedle. The action itself provides nourishment from the body, and also removes any excess miasmaand moisture from within. However, I heard that one requires inner strength to perform the DivineAcupuncture Therapy technique… Could Mr. Crawford actually possess that…?” explained anotherdoctor.

“Hah! You think someone like him could ever possess inner strength? Trust me when I say he’sprobably just putting on a show. Whatever the case is, his true capabilities will be revealed through theresults!” sneered Walbridge.

Being the envious person he was, Walbridge was already chanting in his mind, ‘May those children notbe healed by this buffoon!’

Gerald himself wasn’t aware of the controversy among those outside the isolation room. After all, hewas fully preoccupied with the Divine Acupuncture Therapy technique. With each needle that went inand out—the now pale-faced—Gerald slowly found himself getting more and more exhausted, largebeads of sweat dripping off his chin. It certainly didn’t help that a lot of energy needed to be used toreplenish the babies’ oxyblood.

Despite that, he maintained his immense speed and precision. Due to that, it wasn’t long before he wasdone with all the babies in the room!

Throughout his efforts, the babies Gerald had previously cured were already shown signs of recovery.No longer were their faces dark, and on the contrary, their complexions were slowly turning fairer androsier, clear signs that they were recovering.novelbin

What more, the swelling on their bodies were already subsiding as well, and their skin seemed to bereturning to normal. In fact, it even appeared that their aura and vitality were even stronger than before!

“T-this…”

After seeing all this, Zane was so relieved and excited that he instantly burst into tears.
