Any disease in this world can be cured, but the poor can't be cured.

"How could I trick your senses and still make you want to come back?"

Wang Yi's words echoed in the cold, dark hallway.

After a brief moment of astonishment, the expression on Yingying's face gradually changed.

"You're right. If I had sensed such a heavy aura of death on you this afternoon, I might not have come to you for this surgery."

"I can toss whoever I want to you to play with, but... not her."

As he spoke, Wang Yi's gaze swept over the woman lying in the reception lounge.

In that moment, the man's eyes were full of tenderness.

"But now I see you really are a madman, a pervert!"

"Like you madmen and perverts, your skills are usually pretty good. Leaving her with you, I can rest assured."

"I brought the stuff."

"I also brought the money, not 800,000, but 300,000."

"I don't need your stuff, I just need you to lift a finger. The whole 300,000 is yours, I just ask you..."

"To ensure her safety to the maximum extent possible."

"Hmm..."

Lu Yuan nodded, taking out the medical information registration form and waiver he had given Wang Yi earlier.

The reason for seeking medical treatment section clearly stated: Sex reassignment surgery, biological female, reassigned male.

"Have you thought it through clearly? No prosthetics? Then you can still live, otherwise you won't make it."

Wang Yi shook his head, "Doctor, our identities do not allow it."

"People like us are seen as a thorn in the eye by the consortia. Not one of us with mechanical prosthetics has lived more than three months."

"We are wanted by all the consortia jointly. They have a device that can detect mechanical prosthetics in the human body."

"But don't worry doctor, we are not bad people. We have never done anything to harm the natural order or wrong the general public."

Lu Yuan said slowly: "Pathfinder."

Pathfinder, an organization of empowered individuals that sought to overthrow the current consortia rule over the regions and restore the old democratic system and rule of law.

Wang Yi nodded. "Yes."

Lu Yuan: "Without mechanical prosthetics, I can shuffle your organs around and reconstruct you."

Suddenly, Wang Yi's expression became strange. He said slowly, "Now that I think about it, that does sound pretty exciting, but..."

"Doctor, my time is limited."

"I have traumatic lung injuries. I'm barely staying alive now thanks to the recovery fluids."

Lu Yuan: "I have stored healthy lung tissue that I can transplant into you."

"My heart was attacked by an empowered individual. Now half of it is cold and half is burning hot, and the pulsation rate is getting slower and slower."

Lu Yuan: "I can transplant a primate heart. Although the function is slightly worse, it doesn't require blood type matching and can fully serve the function of a human heart."

"I have three bullet holes in my abdomen that pierced a small piece of my liver. I have to take liver regeneration fluids every hour."

Lu Yuan: "I can transplant an O blood type liver. It matches any blood type and I have some here too."

"My kidneys..."

Lu Yuan: "I can use Rhesus monkey kidneys. I have full blood type Rhesus monkey kidneys here. Definitely not as powerful as your original kidneys but can absolutely be used."

"I was born with intermittent infantile paralysis..."

Lu Yuan: "Spinal transplant works. I have some ready-made here too."

"Doctor, I only have that 300,000. No other money."

Lu Yuan: "I'll have the nurse come and prepare pen and paper for you to think about how you want to write your will."

Wang Yi: "..."

"Sorry, there is medicine for every disease in this world except poverty."

A hint of helplessness flashed across Wang Yi's face.

"Doctor, I understand. In fact, I'm already half brain dead. I'm barely alive now thanks to the mechanical bio-electric tissue in my brain constantly stimulating me."

Even Lu Yuan now could not save someone from brain death.

Wang Yi went on, "This is also what I have to tell you next. The consortia's empowered individuals chasing us are in Xifu City."

"They may arrive in Yun City at any time. As soon as they get here, they'll be able to detect someone with mechanical brain prosthetics here with you!"

"So after I die, you must destroy the mechanical prosthetics in my brain as soon as possible!"

Lu Yuan frowned and asked, "Can you still go to the consortia to claim that 3 million after your head has been taken apart?"

Wang Yi: "..."

"It should be... no problem."

"Then that's fine."

Finally, Lu Yuan turned and walked towards the woman lying on the floor.

By now the woman was crying her eyes out. It seemed she had some spinal injury and could only lie there.

Seeing this, Lu Yuan somewhat doubted how these two managed to escape here.

Lu Yuan placed the registration form and waiver next to the woman and asked, "Are you willing to accept his organ donation?"

The woman looked at Wang Yi. He pointed at his temple, his voice exceptionally firm: "Yingying, I definitely won't make it."

"You take on a new identity and live bravely!"

"Don't fail me, don't fail the organization!"

"Even if this world is dark, someone has to walk in front, to be the Pathfinder to the dawn!"

"Pathfinder, long live!"

Under Wang Yi's steady gaze, the woman nodded with tears in her eyes.

She just choked back sobs, without saying anything.

Half an hour later, the two were pushed into Lu Yuan's operating room #4 one after the other by Lin Yuanyuan.

The surgery lasted until dawn.

Wang Yi died. He was indeed severely injured.

More severe than what he had told Lu Yuan.

Not a single intact place could be found on Wang Yi's body.

Gunshot wounds, knife wounds, elemental wounds, bites from some kind of monster, all kinds of scars were scattered all over Wang Yi.

Even a certain special part.

But Lu Yuan had a way to repair it, so it was not a problem.

From Wang Yi's body, Lu Yuan came into close contact with the "Pathfinder" organization for the first time.

The woman's surgery was very successful and her vital signs were very stable.

Lu Yuan also took the opportunity to remove the bullet lodged in the woman's side spine and grafted an artificial bone segment for her.

The artificial bone had no metal components and would not be detected by the consortia's devices.

While operating on them, Lu Yuan copied their genetic abilities.

Wang Yi's ability was sensory enhancement, an ability Lu Yuan had previously obtained from the young lady who got double eyelid surgery, so this just further enhanced that ability for Lu Yuan.

The woman had a very rare light-based superpower.

Now standing outside the ward, Lu Yuan spread out his hand and a brilliant orb of light blossomed in his palm.

After a while, Lu Yuan looked up. In the distance, a military drone could vaguely be seen rapidly flying over through the endless rain.

The consortia people had arrived.
