In the next second, the hand pressed against Stephen Strange's body was suddenly surrounded by blue light. If one looked carefully, there were even arcs of electricity flickering within it.
That's right. This was the little bit of magic Blaine was using. Summoning arcs and lightning was not a difficult task for Blaine. Although Blaine did not know how to use a defibrillator, he could imitate its working principle himself. The machine was difficult to control, but couldn't Blaine adjust the current with his own hands?
Indeed, under the stimulation of Blaine's weak electric current, Stephen Strange's heart seemed to beat slightly more frequently than before.
Coupled with Blaine's Hawkeye vision, under its perspective, Blaine could directly see through Stephen Strange's chest and grasp the heart's condition at any time. This was far better than the world's highest-level X-ray, chest scan, or any other medical equipment.
Not only that, after being reminded that electric current could stimulate the heart, Blaine also thought of hemostasis. Of course, he was still following what he had seen on TV: tense ICU nurses, doctors' conversations, hemostatic forceps, bandages, and so on. A series of professional terms kept appearing in his mind.
However, others had technical terminology and professional tools, while Blaine had skills even more powerful than their high-level medical equipment—or rather, magic.
No, at a certain moment, the palm pressed against Stephen Strange no longer merely flickered with arcs of electricity. A light shield actually entered his body through Blaine's palm. Moreover, under the guidance of Blaine's Hawkeye perspective, it slowly approached the heart. Then, under Blaine's full attention, with precision comparable to the most accurate instrument in the world, it wrapped itself around the blade that had pierced Stephen Strange's heart with incomparable accuracy.
Bang, bang... bang, bang... bang, bang...
Bangbangbangbang... bang, bang...
As Blaine continued to increase the electric current in his palm, not only did Stephen Strange's heart beat faster and faster, even his body began to rise and fall along with it.
On the other side, for some reason, under the stimulation of Blaine's electric current, Stephen Strange suddenly regained his footing from a disadvantaged position, as if he had taken an aphrodisiac and been injected with chicken blood. Even under the violent beating of his physical body, the magical power in his soul would occasionally erupt.
All at once, Kaecilius was caught off guard. Every eruption caused him considerable damage. In one particular burst, Kaecilius's body was directly blown away. Although killing him was still out of the question, causing some damage to him was certainly possible.
Blaine had not expected that the stimulation from his electric current would seem like a physical cheat, unexpectedly strengthening Stephen Strange's soul. But what the hell was the reason for that?
Don't think about it. Blaine had never imagined that one day, he would stand at an operating table and act as a doctor. Moreover, he was even more professional than a doctor...
To be reasonable, Blaine was a Bounty Hunter, and his job was to kill people. Yet now, he was actually saving someone.
There was no way around it. This was the task he had accepted. Blaine could not be distracted, so he still had to continue working.
However, with the stimulation of the electric current and the double protection of the energy shield, the next steps could be carried out with confidence and boldness.
Puff...
There was another sound of a sharp weapon piercing flesh. Of course, this time, it was the sound of Blaine successfully pulling out the sharp blade composed of dark-matter energy.
After taking out the blade, Blaine seemed to be angry and directly crushed it in his palm.
However, anger was anger, and although the blade had been removed, Stephen Strange was still not out of danger. Now, it was not only necessary to solve the problem of excessive blood loss, but also to deal with damage to the heart arteries, torn wounds, and so on.
It was just that the problems Blaine faced now were much easier than before. The most difficult parts had all been solved, and there was nothing left that could stump Blaine.
As he continued working, Blaine's palm kept applying voltage continuously, maintaining the beating of Stephen Strange's heart. Suddenly, something appeared in his other hand.
The green bottle and its faint fragrance immediately made people feel refreshed after smelling it. That's right, this was a bottle of rejuvenation potion that Blaine had bought for 50 billion.
Just one drop. A single drop of rejuvenation potion fell onto Stephen Strange, and a miracle happened. The finger-length wound on Stephen Strange's heart healed at a speed visible to the naked eye. Before the wound on his heart had even finished healing, the wound on the surface of his body had already returned to its original state.
Moreover, it looked as smooth as a baby's skin, without even the slightest scar left behind. Sure enough, it was worthy of being a healing potion worth 50 billion. Its title of bringing the dead back to life was not for nothing.
To be honest, Stephen Strange was truly lucky. If it were not for the Ancient One's special care for him, and if it were not for Blaine happening to accept this task, he really would have had to give his final explanation here today.
After all, the female nurse still had not appeared at this moment. It could be seen that women really were a bit unreliable at critical moments. What about Stephen Strange's lover? She was not even as useful as Blaine's left hand. Uh, it seemed like things were going off track again.
Seeing that Stephen Strange had returned to normal, Blaine also let out a deep breath. The few minutes just now had truly been the most focused and concentrated moments of any mission Blaine had ever taken.
He looked back at the astral forms of Stephen Strange and Kaecilius. At this moment, the two of them—oh no, only Stephen Strange's astral form was left. Seeing that Stephen Strange had gradually recovered, and that there was also a Bounty Hunter of unknown strength nearby, Kaecilius wisely chose to escape.
Looking at Stephen Strange again, Blaine saw that after Kaecilius ran away, Strange hurriedly returned to his original body, thanked Blaine, and quickly ran out. It looked like he had gone to fight Kaecilius again.
Blaine did not know what was going on inside Stephen Strange's head. Knowing that he could not beat Kaecilius, and having only just been rescued by Blaine, he still wanted to go and provoke him.
However, this at least showed that Stephen Strange had now gradually understood the Ancient One's painstaking efforts. He had gradually recognized his position and slowly begun to shoulder the responsibilities brought about by his magical abilities. Wasn't it enough that he was able to chase after Kaecilius, who was stronger than him, without fearing death?
There was no way around it. His employer, Stephen Strange, had already gone out, and Blaine, the "bodyguard," seemed to have no choice but to follow this path.
