James found it unlikely.

Jonathan Harris was just a doctor. Goryeo was one of the twenty-eight countries, but it was a small country. It was impossible that he could mastermind the battle at Mount Thunder Pass. Or maybe it was not Jonathan at all.

Maybe the true mastermind was someone else.

James shook his head to clear his thoughts.

He closed his eyes and got some rest.

Thea drove carefully.

Soon, they reached the city and arrived at Medical Street.

The medical conference was just starting. As Medical Street was full of pedestrians, no cars were allowed.

The parking lots nearby were full, so Thea could only park at a parking lot further away. They took a cab to Medical Street.

The street was full of people.

Thea grabbed onto James. He walked slowly, as if carved from wood.

"Honey, are you sure you're alright? Should we go to the hospital?"

Thea looked at James. Even his face had started to go stiff and expressionless. She was extremely worried.

James moved his lips. "No, no. Why don't you take me to Eternality Hospital since it's open again now? I know how to expel the toxins from my body. I'll be fine after I get rid of it." "Okay."

Thea agreed.

She guided Thea toward Eternality Hospital.

However, James was too slow.

"Honey, why don't I carry you on my back?"

"I-I don't think so. There are many people here. I don't want to cause a scene."

"It'll be fine."

Thea bent down, urging James to get onto her back.

James thought about it. It would take too long to get to Eternality Hospital with his condition. He climbed onto Thea's back carefully.

Thea stood up with some difficulty with James on her back.

The street was full of citizens and reporters alike.

Many witnessed this scene. Some pointed at them, while some recorded it on their phones. Thea did not care.

She carried James and walked as fast as she could. Half an hour later, they finally arrived at Eternality Hospital.

The hospital had been shut down, but the Callahans were there. However, all the doctors they had employed were now working at other hospitals.

In front of the hospital, Thea put James down.

She gulped in deep breaths. Her face beaded with sweat. Jokingly, she glared at James. "You're so heavy. I'm so tired."

James leaned against the threshold of the hospital and slowly produced a cigarette, smoking it equally slowly.

Lex walked out and saw this scene. He asked, "James, what's going on?"

Slowly, James answered, "N-nothing."

Howard, John, and the rest of the family followed.

The other hospitals were full to bursting, but Eternality Hospital remained empty.

Weston sighed. "We're suffering due to the Watsons and Xenoses. We made thirty million dollars on the first three days of the medical conference last year. Looks like we won't make a single penny this year." James roughly understood how the medical conference worked.

The medical conference attracted people from all around the world to seek treatment on Medical Street in Cansington.

Many of the hospitals tried to get patients as well.

The first three days were for seeking treatment.

The fourth day was when the competition began.

However, there were just too many medical institutions on Medical Street.

There were more than ten thousand of them in total.

There were even more doctors.

Millions of them.

Not all of them would qualify for the competition.

This was where the performance of the first three days came in.

Each patient treated was recorded in the system.

To qualify for the final competition, one had to be among the top 100, selected based on the treatments they administered on the first three days and a voting system by the public.

The treatment took up 50%, while the voting took up another 50%.

To determine the ranking, both the above would be taken into account.

Hearing Weston's complaint, James said slowly, "D-don't worry. I'm here now. I'll make sure Eternality gets its moment. Take me inside. I need to craft an antidote."

Thea was still catching her breath, but she went to James at once and helped him into the hospital.

The Callahans watched James, who was stiff and slow. They were confused.

What was going on?
