Chapter 363

Doctor Player Chapter 363

The Kingdom of Gears wanted the Empire of the Crusaders.

He wanted to become an actual ruler, not a shady leader like he is now.

Of course, the Kingdom of Gears was still the leader of the Crusader Empire.

However, rather than simply leading the allies, it wanted to subjugate the other 9 countries as vassals and become a ‘sovereign nation’ that ruled from above.

However, no matter how strong the Kingdom of Gears was, it was impossible to deal with the other nine kingdoms alone.

Of course, the national power of the Kingdom of Gears is extremely strong.

It was a national power capable of dealing with the same three strong kingdoms, Saint Rosette Kingdom and Alpenser Kingdom, at the same time, but unfortunately, it was impossible to exceed that.

The Char Gears Kingdom, longing for an unfulfillable wish, gained amazing knowledge through some kind of path.

It was a great esoteric ‘medicine’ that was passed down in ancient times.

The Gears Kingdom immediately saw the potential of medicine.

If this medical technique is made public, many people will be saved.

However, the Kingdom of Gears did not.

kept in strict secrecy.

Instead, they focused on another aspect of medicine.

Medicine could be a deadly weapon depending on how it was used.

They decided to use medicine as a ‘knife’ to achieve their long-cherished wish.

So, Gears Kingdom has been working on a project for a long time.

To use medicine to obtain other countries in the dark.

Of course, it was not an easy plan.

It was clear that the headwinds would be enormous if revealed.

So I set up a suitable agent.

Peninsula Kingdom.

It is to put forward the unfortunate successor of a powerful kingdom with power equivalent to that of the three rivers.

Of course, he did not believe only in Lawrence’s individual abilities.

All that Lord Lawrence has been able to do so far has been possible thanks to the secret help of the Kingdom of Gears.

After meticulous efforts, I almost came to the brink of success, but such a variable.

“Half of the plan is almost done. Soon, the saint of brilliance will push out Empress Catherine of St. Rosette Kingdom and be elected emperor.”

saint of brilliance.

He was a great saint from the royal family of the Gears Kingdom.

The Kingdom of Gears ‘raised’ him as a saint from the beginning to make him the emperor of the Crusader Empire.

The throne through the saint of brilliance.

And it was Gears Kingdom’s plan to rule several kingdoms in the dark through Lord Lawrence.

If those plans come true, they will be able to wield more than 50% of the Crusader Empire at will.

Afterwards, if the kingdom of Saint Rosette, a toothless tiger, is subjugated by military force, the Crusader Empire will completely fall into the hands of the Kingdom of Gears.

The Kingdom of Gears will be reborn as a true ’empire’.

‘It was almost a plan, but it’s a problem like this. Are you Raymond? Troublesome.’

Chancellor Ludwig continued tapping his fingers on the table.

“It must be the royal family. It also carries the blood of the two kingdoms at the same time.”

Ludwig made a troubled face.

A fly that interferes with their plans appeared, but it wasn’t an ordinary fly.

It made sense to some extent that Lord Lawrence was struggling.

“Because I am a member of the royal family, I cannot use my hands rashly. Assassination is impossible.”

I considered removing it covertly, but it was impossible.

He was being called an unbelievably gifted wizard.

I checked the information and it appeared to be true.

There was no way it would be possible to covertly eliminate such a person, and the backlash would be enormous if the attempt was discovered.

“Appeasement… … would be impossible They are called the saints of poverty.”

Ludwig made an annoyed face.

“If he had the same personality as the saint of brilliance, he would be able to appease him.”

saint of brilliance.

He is called a great saint, but he was very greedy.

Reputation management was difficult.

However, his nickname was ‘the saint of poverty’.

There was no way the appeasement would work.

‘I’m not interested in rich movies. These guys are the most annoying.’

He was silent for a long time in silence.

“I can’t help it. I guess I’ll have to use that method. Although it is still incomplete.”

It was one of the weapons the Kingdom of Gears was secretly preparing.

“I need to get ready.”

A chilling voice spread.

After parting with Archduke Mishelt, a quest came to mind.

Of course, it was a drug-related quest.

[Save those who have fallen into the devil’s medicine!]

(Ninjutsu Quest)

Goodness: Great Doctor Level

Difficulty: Great

Quest Description: Save the people of the Free Cities Alliance suffering from the devil’s medicine with your ability!

Clear Conditions: Eliminating drug dealers

Reward: Bonus level up x 4 skill points 400 points.

Perk: The Light of the Free Cities Alliance

’… … I don’t have to be the light.’

Seeing the perk, Raymond grumbled.

‘I want more money than these useless rewards.’

However, when I thought about it, it seemed that becoming the light of the Free Cities Association would also help me make money.

With that in mind, he set to work, but Raymond immediately ran into difficulties.

‘… … How do I investigate drugs?’

Come to think of it, he was a healer.

Drug investigation was not a doctor’s responsibility, only treating patients addicted to drugs!

‘… … I don’t know if it’s enough to guess the culprit with forensic science, but it’s not a healer’s domain to do a complete drug investigation.’

Soren smiled at the thought.

“Of course, I am not asking you to catch drug dealers. That’s not something your Highness, a healer, would do.”

“then?”

“According to the intelligence obtained by our Gaebolg family, the monarchs colluding with Marquis Rodrigo said that they also habitually abused drugs. As a healer, just get proof that they used drugs. Then we, the Gaeborg family, will take care of the rest.”

Raymond understood the meaning.

The reason why the Gaebolg family cannot step forward now is because each city has the right to autonomy.

But when there is a cause, things change.

Proof of the lords’ ties to drugs gives Gaebolg Street a reason for their city’s intervention.

As a healer, I want you to secure that evidence.

‘But that’s not easy either. I have to draw the blood of each monarch.’

The way to prove drug use through medicine was simple.

Blood is taken to detect drug components. If you entrust the notarization to the magic tower, it should be enough to be used as evidence.

But how can the blood of monarchs be drawn?

‘There’s no way I’ll give it to you just because you asked for blood.’

After hearing Raymond’s concerns, Elmud and Mien stepped forward.

They seemed excited because they had something to help after a long time.

“Lord, we will solve it! I will secretly infiltrate and draw the blood of each monarch!”

“Meow meow! Meow!”

“I will dedicate this one body to my lord!”

“Meow!”

The two of them screamed with high morale, but it was a ridiculous story that they would secretly sneak in and draw blood.

‘Is there any chance of being caught and executed as an assassin?!’

Raymond shook his head and they both sulked again.

‘I want to help. Can I always be the master’s strength?

‘Nyaoong.’

The two went out with their shoulders drooping and comforted each other.

The two of them comforted each other with a sense of shame that they were not always helpful.

Of course, Raymond, as always, didn’t pay much attention to the two of them who were in despair, and he was lost in his thoughts.

‘How can I collect the blood of monarchs? It wouldn’t work even if I asked to do a test to check for drug addiction.’

However, there was no reason to draw blood for other reasons.

‘If you have a sore spot, you can secretly take blood and test it while saying that it will cure it, but it’s impossible.’

Unfortunately, all four monarchs in question were healthy.

Also, even if there was an uncomfortable place, it was questionable whether he would easily seek treatment from Raymond.

‘how should?’

Soren also made a troubled face.

“To prove drug use, you must obtain the blood of monarchs. It certainly won’t be easy. We will think about a method on our side as well.”

“Yes, I will think about it some more.”

Before leaving, Thorn told an unexpected story.

“Your Highness.”

“yes?”

“Your Highness, by any chance. Is it related to the Iron Empire?”

Raymond made a puzzled face.

It was a completely unexpected story.

“Not at all? Why?”

“Ah, by the way, I think I’ve heard that healers from the Iron Empire are researching a treatment similar to the one your Highness did.”

“Surgery?”

Raymond made a surprised face.

Surgery in the Iron Empire?

It was a story I had never heard of.

‘Because the news of the Iron Empire doesn’t reach the Crusader Empire well.’

The Iron Empire was the enemy of the Crusader Empire. It’s not just that the relationship is bad, but even now, local wars are taking place on the border.

So, there were many cases where news of the Iron Empire did not reach the Crusaders.

In particular, since the Tower of Healing had completely lost its influence in the Iron Empire, news of the healing world was almost cut off, so Raymond was not familiar with the trend of the Iron Empire’s healing world.

‘I heard that they are kicking out the Tower of Healing and developing their own cure. Are you researching a treatment similar to medicine?’

Raymond made an unexpected face.

‘Well, given the temperament of the people of the Iron Empire, a treatment similar to medicine can be developed.’

The Iron Empire has an extremely pragmatic temperament.

In particular, they value rationality and logical thinking. I wonder if the name of the country is the ‘Iron’ Empire?

The fact that the country was named ‘iron’ was a symbol of their practicality.

Therefore, I was told that unlike the Crusader Empire, they are extensively researching various sciences.

‘Unlike the Crusader Empire, which doesn’t even know what guns are, they mass-produce guns and operate them as soldiers.’

As such, it was possible enough to research a treatment similar to medicine.

“Do you know what level of iron empire surgery is?”

“I don’t know exactly… … .”

Thorne made an awkward face.

“I heard the worst.”

“yes?”

“There are often patients who run away to the Free Cities Alliance because they are afraid to be treated by local healers. They described the healers of their countries as demons.”

“… … .”

“I would pierce a hole in my head to get rid of a headache, and that… … It is said that the treatment to open the stomach similar to the operation performed by Her Highness has an extremely high success rate. Most of all, it is said that unlike Your Highness, there are cases where the patient goes crazy by opening the stomach while awake.”

Raymond cleared his throat.

‘It’s still at the early stage of medicine.’
