The Understated Dragon Lord

Chapter 473 Kind Died As Pork finished speaking, a cacophony of alarms echoed throughout the room; the monitors connected to Kind began blaring their loud warning tones. The figures on the screens that had just started to rise plummeted back to zero. Everyone present was shocked.

"What... what happened? He was alive just a moment ago!" A look of panic crossed Down's face. Having invited Professor John, he felt a measure of responsibility if Kind's condition worsened on his watch.

Professor John stood, dumbfounded, staring at the digital readout. His large blue eyes flitted back and forth between the screens and Kind in disbelief. "No, this can't be! We had just revived him; how could he suddenly die? Those numbers were rising just a second ago. Why did they all drop to zero?" "Professor John, save him, please!" Avery urged frantically.

"Quickly! Revive the patient, give him a shock!" The professor was clearly in a state of panic.

Defibrillation is modern medicine's last-ditch effort to resuscitate a patient, using electric shocks to jolt the heart back into beating. Whether this method can revive a patient is mostly a matter of luck. Moreover, even if it does work, the electrical assault can significantly impact the patient's physical condition.

Unable to restrain himself further, Daniel chimed in, "Defibrillation won't bring him back. The patient's body is already too weak; more shocks will only overtax it. This next shock might even trigger a complete physical collapse." "Country boy, keep quiet! Stop spouting your nonsense," Pork roared at Daniel.

"Brother-in-law, I'm not talking nonsense; I'm telling the truth," Daniel insisted, wanting to explain further. However, Avery shot him a warning look.

"Shut up!" she thundered.

While Daniel would typically disregard Pork's words, Avery's command carried sufficient weight to compel his silence. Even if his mother-in-law wasn't his biological mother, her maternal authority instilled fear within him. Every bit as fearful of her as anyone could be, Daniel complied when she raised her voice.

Content with silencing Daniel, Avery's mood remained grim. The state of her father was precarious, to say the least, and the prospect of his passing weighed heavily on her heart. In recent years, her father's health had been in constant decline, and though he had managed to hold on, Avery had hoped he would at least make it to his eightieth birthday, just days away.

Meanwhile, at Kind's bedside, Professor John had administered several electric shocks. There was a brief spike on the monitors after the first couple of shocks, but the numbers soon flatlined again. After multiple attempts, even with increased voltage and frequency, there was no effect. The screen steadied into a continuous line.

Kind was dead.
