While the battle in the waters off New York Harbor was reaching its climax, another battlefield had also reached its most critical moment.
Inside the Osborne Group's Manhattan Medical Center. Penny's operating room was bustling with activity. "Curved vascular forceps." Dr. Strange, who was wearing a surgical gown, was speaking to the assistant nurse. At the same time, he extended his hand and asked for his tools to be brought up.
Strange's hands were as fast as the wind. Like a butterfly flying through flowers, he made an incision on Penny's body to facilitate the operation.
Penny's operation was very difficult because of the pressure on her shrunken nerves. One was located in the brain stem and the other in the spine. These were the most important tissues and organs of the human body. If there was any deviation, she would become a vegetable or die on the spot. This was the biggest concern that other doctors did not dare to operate on Penny.
Even the original Strange did not want to do this operation because the risk was difficult to control. Compared to an adult, Penny was only six years old and her body was too small. There was too little space for the operation.
If it were not for Thor's words, "You're only saving yourself." Strange might not even be standing in front of the operating table. Thor was right. I only want to save myself. But now, even standing in front of the operating table. Strange still did not feel that he had changed. He was still saving himself, but in a different way.
"Dr. Otto, cut the spine. I want the wound to be as small as possible. Otherwise, it will be difficult to heal Penny's wound in a short period of time with regeneration agents. This will leave lifelong sequelae! "Strange said to Dr. Otto, the other chief surgeon of this operation.
Strange was holding a lancet, hemostatic forceps, and other traditional medical tools. On the other hand, Dr. Otto was holding something that looked like a multi-functional mechanical arm.
This was a new type of surgical mechanical arm developed by Dr. Otto. It could be connected to a person's nervous system and turn it into a new arm. The way it worked was very similar to the mechanical octopus arm that Dr. Otto had originally created, but the purpose was very different.
It was not as powerful as the octopus tentacles. This medical exoskeleton was an auxiliary device to help doctors perform surgery. Most of the tools needed for a surgery were gathered on a mechanical arm that resembled a curved tube, giving the doctor a third hand to use. Moreover, this hand was extremely stable, much more stable than a human hand holding a scalpel. There was no trembling or exhaustion at all.
However, Dr. Otto had only recently developed this mechanical arm for medical purposes. Currently, he was the only one in the world who was proficient in using this tool. In the future, there was still a need to promote and train traditional surgeons to master the use of this new equipment through training, so that surgeries would become smoother.
Now, the built-in electric motor of the mechanical arm began to work, and a small saw blade began to work. Under the high-speed rotation, it dexterously cut out a wound without leaving any residue.
Due to the emergence of regeneration medicine, the surgeries in the Osborne Group Medical Center were very different from the surgeries outside. Most of the time, doctors only needed to consider whether the Regeneration Potion could restore the damage caused by the wound. As long as the wound could be restored, then they could perform the surgery boldly.
This gives more leeway than traditional surgery. Just like now.
Dr. Otto finished his work and gestured to Dr. Strange. Strange nodded. The most difficult part was coming. He had to find the atrophied nerve and remove it.
After the removal, he would inject regeneration medicine to regenerate the severed nerve.
At this time, his hand could not have any trembling. Strange took a deep breath. He was ready to perform the surgery.
Bang! There was a loud explosion and a sense of shaking. One of the nurses almost fell.
Dr. Otto asked loudly, "What's going on?!" Several staff members in charge of security outside sent a message to the operating room through the communicator. "War! There's a war outside New York Harbor. Someone is attacking the United States, attacking New York! The police station and the city government have already sent a evacuation alert. Should we move? "
There was some panic in the voice of the staff, which was normal. For New Yorkers, war was something that only happened in the news and movies. It happened thousands of kilometers away from the United States and New York. Who would have thought that one day a war would break out at their doorstep?
This news came at a very bad time. Several assistant doctors and nurses in the operating room were a little flustered. Some of the young nurses' feet began to tremble.
This made Dr. Otto very unhappy. He shouted in a low voice, "What do you want? Running away at the last minute? If anyone dares to leave at this time, I can clearly tell that person that you will be fired. "
But Dr. Otto's words did not have enough effect. A young assistant doctor looked like he was ready to run away at any time. Please, this is a war! If you lose your job, you can find another one. If you don't take refuge here, do you want to die here?
At this time, Dr. Strange was performing the surgery quickly. He said without stopping, "I know someone wants to run away. If you lose your job, you can find another one, right?"
The young doctors and nurses who were told about the center all heaved a sigh of relief.
Strange continued the surgery and said calmly, "I am Stephen Strange, a world-class doctor. The resources and connections I have in this circle are beyond your imagination. At this time, if anyone dares to step out of this room, I can guarantee that they will never be able to participate in any medical work for the rest of their lives, not even as a cleaner in the hospital. "
Strange looked up at the crowd with a kind of frightening indifference in his eyes. "You can give it a try. I mean what I say."
Five years in the medical school, two years in the postgraduate program, and at least six years in the postgraduate program. There were also five to seven years of internship after graduation. Only then could they get a surgeon's license and stand in front of the operating table with a scalpel.
The most precious ten years of their lives had been spent on this. Strange was not joking. He could make the first half of their lives go to waste. He had the ability to do so.
"If the surgery is successful, I will invite the members of The Lancet to dinner. You can prepare a detailed report of this surgery, which is worthy of being published in The Lancet. You know the impact factor of this magazine, right? "Strange lowered his head again and continued to work.
Dr. Otto also said after Strange, "After this surgery, I will submit an application to Mr. Osborne to fight for a promotion and a special bonus for you!"
With the help of the stick and the jujube, the medical staff who had been a little uneasy at first calmed down. Well, if they left, although they could live, the rest of their lives might be worse than death. If he succeeded in this gamble, he might become a famous doctor! Everyone forcefully suppressed their nervousness and continued to work.
Two blocks outside the Osborne Group Medical Center. Yellow sand filled the sky. A huge sand giant was fighting with the Spider-man in a red and blue uniform.
Two small missiles flew over and blasted an opening in the sand giant that had entangled the Spider-man, allowing Peter to escape.
