Mechanical Doctor

…

In the evening, in a somewhat shabby house on the side of [Mud and Water Street] in Gran City, a well-dressed middle-aged man was cleaning the house.

"Knock! Knock! Knock!"

"Who is it?"

The middle-aged man who heard the knock on the door put down the broom and opened the door.

After opening the door, an old lady in nun's clothes stood outside. The old lady had gray hair and wrinkles on her face. She looked quite old.

"McKen, it's really you. I heard some noise in your house and thought there was a thief."

Hearing this, the middle-aged man named McCann laughed and said:

"There is nothing valuable in my house. Even if a thief comes in, what can he steal?"

"Old lady, please come in. I just brought some good tea from the capital. I can invite you to taste it."

Unable to resist McCann's enthusiastic invitation, the old lady was helped in.

After entering the living room, the old lady looked at the small living room that was almost full of various things and McKen's strong body that was completely different from before. She said with some relief:

"McKen, the man named Manolin should treat you workers very well, right? I see you are much stronger than before."

"Haha, indeed, Mr. Manolin treats us workers very well."

"He not only gives us generous wages, sufficient rest time and various entertainment activities, but also often gives us some meat of extraordinary creatures that even rich gentlemen can hardly eat."

"..."

McKen and the old lady talked happily until the bell outside rang five times in a row.

The old lady stood up when she heard the bell.

"McKen, I have to go cook for the kids, so I won't chat with you anymore."

McKen knew that the child the old lady was talking about was adopted by this kind old lady, so he hurriedly said:

"Old lady, I'll go with you to help."

But the old lady waved her hand and said:

"Forget it, you still have things to do, I can do it alone."

Since McCann did have other plans, he didn't force her and let the old lady go back with a cane.

After watching the old lady return to her home, Mike began to sort out the pile of things in the living room.

All these things were bought by McCann and given to neighbors. After all, McCann, who had broken an arm, would have died long ago if it weren't for the help of his neighbors.

McCann is not a person who doesn't know how to repay kindness, so now that he has the ability, he naturally wants to repay his neighbors.

"Knock! Knock! Knock!"

"Knock! Knock! Knock!"

With the knocks on the door one after another, McKen began to knock on the door and give gifts to every household.

But when he returned to his own floor, he found several ferocious guys blocking the door of the old lady.

At this time, the old door of the old lady had been kicked open by these people, and the old lady was confronting them.

The bright light ball in the old lady's hand made these ferocious guys hesitate and dare not come forward.

"Old man, as long as you hand over the little girl behind you to us, this matter will be over, otherwise none of you will live!"

The guy in the lead threatened fiercely.

In fact, when the old woman in front of him showed the ball of light, this guy actually regretted accepting this task from the boss. Even though the old woman in front of him looked old and dying, the extraordinary was the extraordinary, and it was easier to deal with ordinary people like them than to kill chickens.

But now he has no way out, because the child behind the old woman was asked by the boss, and they, the little minions, have no right to refuse.

And the old lady is actually very embarrassed here, because he is not an extraordinary, but a [priest].

The [priest] in this world is not like those professions in online games, who can fight and heal, and have super power. The [priest] in this world is not even an extraordinary profession, but an "identity".

Of course, [priests] are not completely powerless. They can borrow the power of gods for a short time, and exert strength far beyond the extraordinary profession, and do those incredible things.

But this is not without cost.

Although the gods don't mind their [priests] borrowing their power, this power itself can cause terrible harm to ordinary people, even if the gods try their best to control it.

This means that the more [priests] borrow the power of the gods, the worse their physical condition will be.Poor.

So there are very few [priests] who live to this age like the old lady.

As for why the old lady is in such a predicament now, we have to mention the difference between the extraordinary and the [priest].

The power used by ordinary extraordinary people is their own, so even if they are old and dying, they can still have a lot of combat power.

In other words, even if it is an old man or old woman who is about to die, as long as he can still move, he has a lot of strength (except for middle and low-level warriors).

But [priests] are different. Their power all comes from the gods. They are just ordinary people. Even because of the influence of the power of the gods, their bodies are even weaker than ordinary people.

When they reach old age, their bodies can no longer withstand the power of the gods, and therefore the [priests] in old age have almost no combat power.

Don’t think that the light ball in the old lady’s hand is very intimidating. In fact, this light ball has only the effect of lighting at most. Throwing this light ball is not even as powerful as picking up a stone and throwing it out.

So the old lady could only rely on the fact that the people in front of her had little knowledge, hoping to protect them and make them retreat.

"Humph! It's not like I haven't seen a superhuman before! Since you don't want to drink the wine, don't blame us!"

"You! Go!"

After the leader of the group said a few harsh words, he casually dragged out a poor guy from the crowd behind him.

"Ah?"

The poor guy who was dragged out was obviously stunned for a moment.

Just now, their big brother said so many harsh words, and the poor guy who was dragged out thought that the big brother was going to go up himself.

In the end, he didn't expect that he would let his little brother go up first.

"Go up quickly, what are you talking about?"

The leader kicked the little brother on the butt and told him to deal with the old woman in front of him quickly.

The leader was once a member of the Black Hand Gang, the largest gang in Gran City. He was considered an old man in the entire gang world. He naturally knew the various strange powers of the extraordinary people. Even the weakest extraordinary people should not be underestimated, so he naturally could not go into battle himself.

"Stop!"

Bang!

After a gunshot, the gangster who was pushed out to take the blame looked at the wound on his chest and fell to the ground.
