Chapter 56: Lord House, Goodherbs!
Just these three words were enough to make Colbert Osborn’s blood boil with excitement!
In Colbert Osborn’s eyes,
Jun Chester was a legend!
Back then,
Jun Chester had become a general within half a year of joining the military. Within a year, he had become the Commander-in-Chief and personally selected new generals!
That year, Jun Chester was just nineteen years old!
To his enemies, he was the Accursed Lord!
To them, he was Lord Chester!
What this meant, only those who truly understood him would know.
Colbert Osborn thought he knew Jun Chester well enough.
But now it seemed…
What he knew was just the tip of the iceberg.
Just now, Jun Chester mentioned the Lords’ Guards!
But what were the Lords’ Guards?
In truth, Colbert Osborn didn’t really understand either.
But as the Commander-in-Chief of Lordran, Colbert Osborn was somewhat familiar with the name.
It was said that the Lords’ Guards came from the most mysterious organization in Lordran.
Lord House.
And the Lords’ Guards were merely the gatekeepers of Lord House.
Every three years, Lord House would eliminate a batch of Lords’ Guards.
That’s right.
Eliminate, not retire!
And the eliminated Lords’ Guards would be responsible for guarding Lordran’s national secrets.
Meanwhile, one of them would be selected to protect the personal safety of Lordran’s Supreme Lord.
Last time, Colbert Osborn had the honor of fighting with the Lords’ Guard responsible for the Supreme Lord’s safety, and they fought to a draw!
However, now, Colbert Osborn had already stepped into the Luminescence stage under Jun Chester’s guidance.
And the Lords’ Guard he had fought with was just an eliminated gatekeeper of Lord House.
What did this mean?
Colbert Osborn didn’t dare to think.
Now, Jun Chester was letting him lead the Lords’ Guards to kill!
What did this mean?
Could it be that Jun Chester was actually a member of Lord House?
Jun Chester seemed to effortlessly see through Colbert Osborn’s thoughts and explained indifferently.
“Lord House was founded by me and a few elders in Lordran who could barely exchange a few blows with me. And the Lords’ Guards were personally selected by me.”
“Now, there are eighteen Lords’ Guards outside.”
“Although they are all young fellows who have been eliminated, with their help, we can deter the chaos in the world.”
At that, Jun Chester paused.
He added another sentence.
“From now on, you will lead these eighteen Lords’ Guards, and with their help, you can also improve your own strength.”
Colbert Osborn opened his eyes wide, immediately understanding Jun Chester’s painstaking efforts.
Jun Chester wanted to use the Lords’ Guards as a sharpening stone for Colbert Osborn.
Colbert Osborn straightened his back and said solemnly,
“Thank you, Lord Chester!”
Jun Chester nodded.
“Colbert, your talent may not be as good as Phoenix’s, but hard work makes everything possible!”
“For cultivation, talent is indeed important, but sometimes, it can be dispensable.”
“You must remember this!”
Colbert Osborn listened respectfully, bowed, and saluted.
“I will remember!”
“Thank you, Master!”
Jun Chester waved his hand indifferently.
“Alright, go find the Lords’ Guard by the Supreme Lord’s side.”
“The martial arts tournament is approaching, and we still have nine days left. I don’t want to see those fleas causing trouble again!”
Colbert Osborn saluted once more and turned to leave.
At this moment, Mildred Clayborne walked out of the operating room, looking worried.
While Jun Chester was performing surgery on Bella earlier, Mildred Clayborne and several other chief physicians had been assisting him.
Now, Mildred Clayborne had apparently taken care of all postoperative matters.Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
Seeing Jun Chester still standing outside, Mildred Clayborne’s emotions were complex.
She had originally thought that Jun Chester would only save people with silver needles.
Now it seemed that his surgical skills had also reached a pinnacle.
Recalling what Jun Chester had done in the operating room, Mildred Clayborne couldn’t help but feel a fanatical admiration for Jun Chester from the bottom of her heart. However…
Even so.
They still couldn’t help Lyvia and Bella.
From now on, these two beautiful women would clearly become ugly monsters that people would fear.
Lyvia had only suffered injuries to her face.
But each wound was so deep.
Even if she recovered, the scars on her face would be terrifying!
And Bella!
It wasn’t just her face; it was her entire body!
Her body was covered in wounds, and recovery alone would take half a year.
The most important thing was that even after recovery, every part of her body would be covered with shocking scars! They were so young and beautiful, but they were ruined like this. She would be like broken porcelain, difficult to restore! How lamentable!
Jun Chester saw Mildred Clayborne’s exhausted face and comforted her. “Mildred, this night must have been tough for you.”
Mildred Clayborne sighed softly. “It’s nothing. It’s you who not only worked hard but also had to bear so much pain.”
“Don’t be so sad. After all, it has already happened.”
Jun Chester understood what Mildred Clayborne was worried about, but didn’t explain further. Instead, he asked, “When will Bella come out?”
Mildred Clayborne replied, “We’ve cleaned and sutured the wounds. Perhaps in about ten minutes.”
Jun Chester hesitated for a moment. “Come with me.”
Mildred Clayborne was puzzled.
Jun Chester led Mildred Clayborne to an office on the twenty-eighth floor of the hospital. Then, Jun Chester wrote a prescription and took out a purple-gold card from his body. He handed them all to Mildred Clayborne.
“Do me a favor. Go to Goodherbs and buy the herbs on this prescription.”
Mildred Clayborne glanced over the prescription that Jun Chester provided.
The next moment, she couldn’t help but gasp. Each herb on the prescription would cost millions. These were no longer measurable by money. And the owner of Goodherbs in Dirtmouth was a notorious weird old man in Lordran. It was said that even the top pharmacists in Lordran, who were responsible for the Supreme Lord’s health, were like elementary school students in front of him.
Even the dignitaries of Aytwhistdon had to wait a year to buy a few herbs in his pharmacy. But even then, the weird old man might not give them any face. His neglect of patients had even become the old man’s style. Even his name had no human touch.
Badfella Stannard!
He spent all day in his shop, and nobody knew what he was up to. Goodherbs was mostly closed, especially in the past seven years. The last time it opened was three months ago. After it opened last time, dignitaries from all over the world lined up at its door!
As a result, Badfella Stannard just wanted to sunbathe at the door of the pharmacy, not to sell medicine…
And now, Jun Chester asked her to go to Badfella Stannard’s place to buy medicine. Wasn’t he making things difficult for her?
But since Jun Chester had said so, Mildred Clayborne had no reason to refuse.
Mildred Clayborne took a deep breath, looking at Jun Chester as if he were a fool, and said weakly, “I can go, but whether I can buy anything is another matter. Also, what kind of card is this? It looks so strange. It doesn’t seem to be a bank card.”
Jun Chester smiled. “This is from the Bank of Lordran. There’s quite a bit of money in it, but when you go, just take out a few hundred and give it to Badfella Stannard. In a while, I’ll have to settle accounts with the king of Sparrow.”
Mildred Clayborne’s mature face twitched slightly. It took her a while to say, “My goodness, that’s enough. I’m going to Goodherbs now. Don’t mention spending a few hundred to buy anything; if I can even see Badfella Stannard, you win!”
Unexpectedly, just as she finished speaking, an old man’s voice came from outside.
“Jun! Where are you? I brought the herbs for you. I saw the news that your wife and sister-in-law’s faces were scratched, so I brought you some herbs!”
