Wasteland Development Diary

As soon as Da Vinci arrived, he devoted himself to diagnosing and treating the townspeople. Zhou Yi could only further understand this new employee through the data.

Red Falcon said, "This is its publicly available information from the East District Sanatorium."

A profile popped up on the remote control screen.

It showed Da Vinci's three-body form, wielding four arms and busily working at an operating table.

...

[Former Chief Physician - Da Vinci]

Strength: E

Skill: C

Vitality: C

Rating: C

Professional Expertise: Diagnosis and treatment of common diseases, frequently-occurring diseases, and undifferentiated diseases; early disease screening, health management, and assessment.

...

Looking at this introduction, it's somewhat like a general practitioner.

Zhou Yi swiped, finding that he couldn't view more information.

"That's it?"

"That's it."

"What about skills?"

"The skills are the doctor's general skills, [Diagnosis and Treatment] and [Surgery]."

Red Falcon explained, "A doctor's level is linked to their skills. Because the skill assessment is C-level, Da Vinci is only a chief physician. Skills must reach B-level to pass the assessment and become an associate chief physician."

"It's difficult to cross this stage, requiring not only a large amount of clinical experience but also the completion of certain medical research."

"If he can go further and become a B-level associate chief physician, then Da Vinci's value will be immeasurable."

"Medical resources are equally scarce for mechanical lifeforms. In Recursive City, applying for treatment and surgery from an associate chief physician level requires a minimum waiting period of one month. If it were an associate chief physician, as long as the public information about them practicing in Emerald City is released, various mechanical lifeforms would come for treatment, which would bring a constant stream of Light Seed income."

"The latest data shows that the median annual salary for a registered B-level associate chief physician in Recursive City is about 3000 Light Seeds, and the value they bring is at least ten times that number. Doctors of this level almost always sign long-term work agreements with mechanical cities. They have extremely high requirements for the medical environment, and mechanical cities will continuously invest a large amount of resources in them."

Zhou Yi fell into thought.

It sounded similar to the career path of human doctors in the past.

The difference is that B-level mechanical doctors are already strategic-level talents in the wasteland era, and it's basically impossible to poach them.

Zhou Yi asked again, "How is medical research done? By publishing papers?"

Red Falcon said, "Medical research for mechanical doctors requires long-term and in-depth exploration of a certain disease direction or a certain patient group, resulting in original findings or achievements. This demonstrates their qualification to serve as an associate chief physician by filling existing defects or gaps in the existing medical system."

Mechanical research is quite pragmatic.

Zhou Yi pondered.

The hundred-plus people in Mao Gu Town aren't enough to level up Da Vinci. How about taking him to Chicken Head Town next door for free clinics?

Doing this could also link up with the trial residence program in Emerald City, attracting more people with chronic and geriatric diseases for medical treatment and recuperation. A medical-care integrated winter nursing home would be established.

Speaking of which, Da Vinci was previously in a sanatorium, so this is a perfect match for his profession.

Zhou Yi excitedly presented his idea, asking Red Falcon if it was feasible.

The drone, however, had a different idea: "Common diseases have been studied and treated for many years, making it difficult to find breakthroughs, or rather, it's extremely difficult to achieve originality in this area."

"Almost every city hospital has mechanical doctors practicing."

"However, within the area radiated by Emerald City, there is a very special group that is likely to produce special results."

"I suggest sending Da Vinci to Snake Island. It can diagnose and treat the large number of Victory Snakes entrenched there within that hospital-type living building, thereby gaining a wealth of experience."

"..."

Zhou Yi couldn't help but say, "Isn't this a bit too radical?"

Red Falcon rarely criticized, "Zhou, you're too conservative."

Zhou Yi was stunned.

So I'm a conservative.

Red Falcon said, "You underestimate the adaptability of mechanical lifeforms."

"Snake Island has already developed a habit of accepting external treatment, and there are a considerable number of injured individuals. Da Vinci is a chief physician. Even with patients who cannot communicate directly, as long as there is a need for treatment, he has the means of a doctor, which is also an essential quality for medical practitioners."

"The Hunter-Spine's body strength is sufficient to send him to Snake Island. The rest is up to Da Vinci himself."

"If a mechanical doctor cannot survive surrounded by patients, then unfortunately, it can only be said that he is not a qualified doctor."

Zhou Yi then realized.

Red Falcon's style is actually quite radical.

The drone said, "As a rescue aircraft, you need to try as long as there is a theoretical chance, otherwise many victims cannot be rescued."

Indeed.

Zhou Yi thought for a moment.

Should I go with Da Vinci?

Zhou Yi can serve as the initial communication bridge, achieving consciousness synchronization by inputting energy into the Victory Snakes. As long as he can find a Victory Snake, he can communicate with the local snake population.

He decided to first seek the opinion of the person involved.

On Da Vinci's facial screen, the function waveform diagram accelerated: "Thank you for giving me such a valuable opportunity!"

"I will rush to that island without hesitation to treat the local Victory Snake population and to hone my medical skills."

Zhou Yi also expressed his concerns.

He finally recruited a doctor at a sky-high price, and he didn't want him to die after only a few days of use.

"Please do not worry about this. Victory Snakes do not speak but transmit information through scent. Some Victory Snakes have also received treatment before. As long as you purchase the corresponding special pheromones, you can use the pheromones to communicate with Victory Snakes. This method of communication is simple and efficient."

"Due to the order structure mechanism, normal flesh and blood lifeforms will not attack mechanical lifeforms. Destroying us will not produce Light Seeds either. Because mechanical lifeforms do not have Light Nano organs, only Light Seal structures connected to various components. The energy dissipation process does not produce Light Seed reactions."

"Therefore, mechanical and flesh-and-blood types do not have conflicting interests in the survival field, and they usually cooperate more."

Da Vinci said.

Red Falcon added from the side, "I can buy the supplies you need for you, it will be faster this way, just give me the shopping list."

"Thank you very much."

Zhou Yi confirmed with the mechanical doctor again, "Are you sure you want to try going there?"

"Yes, Employer."

Da Vinci was very firm: "It is difficult to achieve new breakthroughs in the treatment of common human diseases with my precision and ability. This field has been researched and cultivated by many doctors for many years, and it is already a relatively mature field. Whether it is basic diagnosis, physical examination, and simple surgery, or higher-level prosthetic replacement, enhanced organ transplantation, they are not uncommon in large human cities."

"However, the treatment of flesh and blood Light Nano species is a direction that can be advanced due to differences in the physiological structure of each lifeform and different ways of survival. It's just difficult to encounter so many patients of the same race, making accumulation difficult."

"Now that such a precious opportunity has arisen, no doctor would give up."

"Just as you said, there is also a living building there, which also fulfills medical duties. I will try to cooperate with it. This kind of cooperation opportunity is very rare. The number of medical-type living buildings is very small to begin with."

"Sir, patients are not my enemies."

"The doctor's only enemy is disease."

Da Vinci showed a warrior-like determination.

Zhou Yi thought for a long time and decided to trust him.

A few days passed.

Red Falcon purchased a batch of drugs and medical tools from Recursive City. Hunter-Sea grabbed the three-body combined Da Vinci and flew all the way across the Dead Sea.

Seven days later, Red Falcon returned.

The remote control's display screen played the real-time images it recorded.

The picture zoomed in, and the flower-shaped Hunter-Spine used its tentacles to fix Da Vinci on its back, arriving in the sky above Snake Island. Under the Victory Snakes' black arrow-like venomous welcome, it completed the beach landing.

After Hunter-Sea left, the snake's attacks also stopped.

They surrounded Da Vinci, seemingly confirming something.

A wisp of white smoke slowly emerged from the mechanical doctor's back.

After a moment, the Victory Snakes propped up their bodies like square stones, and the single eye on their heads all faced Da Vinci.

The white smoke continued to release, and the snakes gradually changed their attitude, and their actions became relaxed.

First, a Victory Snake approached. After Da Vinci scanned it, the mechanical arm pried open its mouth, and then used an instrument similar to a small drill to tinker inside.

After the end, the Victory Snake lazily coiled on the ground, shaking its head from side to side, like it was drunk.

As the snakes successively received treatment.

Da Vinci also gained their approval.

Surrounded by the Victory Snakes, the mechanical doctor drove all the way to the dilapidated small hospital.

Seeing this, Zhou Yi was finally relieved.

It was smoother than expected.

As long as safety is guaranteed, Snake Island is Da Vinci's perfect leveling spot!
