Reborn with Steve Stand - Chapter 51

Tony wanted to respond, but he couldn’t even move or speak. Fang Mo could be really annoying sometimes. Tony wondered how Fang Mo could come up with so many irritating things to say using just the same 26 letters of the alphabet.

Compared to Fang Mo, Tony considered himself quick-witted, but he felt completely outmatched. Fang Mo was like a powerful mythical figure, and Tony felt like a helpless baby in comparison.

“Mr. Fang Mo, Tony really needs your help,” Pepper pleaded sincerely, breaking the silence. “He cares more about a stupid reactor than his own life, he has a terrible personality, and he won’t listen to anyone’s advice. But as Tony’s friend, I’m asking you to find a way to help him, just this once.”

Fang Mo thought about how to save Tony and responded, “But his problem is related to science. Why don’t you go to a doctor instead of coming to me, a sorcerer?”

“Fang Mo, scientific methods can’t save Tony anymore,” Dr. Ho Yinsen chimed in after finishing his work on the medical equipment. He turned to Fang Mo and explained, “There is too much palladium in Tony’s body, and his organs and bones are permanently damaged. We’ve tried every scientific method we know, but nothing has worked.”

“That’s right,” added Nick Fury. “None of the known medical techniques can fully cure him.”

“Huh? You think I can do something about it?” Fang Mo asked.

“You’ve been to the realm of the gods, so you must know more methods than us,” Nick Fury replied. “If even you can’t save Tony, then we’re out of options.”

“Fang Mo, is your friend sick?” Thor asked after listening for a while. “If the medical technology here isn’t enough, you can bring him to Asgard. We have the best healing methods in the Nine Realms.”

“And who is this?” Dr. Ho Yinsen looked curiously at Thor when he heard his words.

“Oh, he’s Thor,” Fang Mo introduced. “He is the Thor from Norse mythology, the son of Odin from Asgard. He is currently my friend.”

“Norse mythology? The God of Thunder?” Dr. Ho Yinsen was completely stunned, as he was just a surgeon.

Pepper immediately asked, “Can Asgard heal Tony?” after listening to their conversation.

“Of course,” Thor proudly responded. “The healing methods in Asgard…”

Before he could finish speaking, Tony suddenly showed signs of extreme pain, and his body tensed up.

“Tony’s heart has stopped!” Dr. Ho Yinsen exclaimed, rushing over. “We need to perform CPR on him.”

“Let the experts handle this,” Fang Mo said, pushing Thor forward. “Dr. Ho Yinsen, put down that tool.”

“But Tony…”

“I can handle it,” Fang Mo thought. “Let me show you real magic, old doctor.”

Thor, always reliable, realized that Tony’s heart had stopped. Drawing from his experience in the Nine Realms, he immediately placed his hand on Tony’s body. With a surge of electricity, Tony suddenly jolted up from the bed, and his heartbeat returned to normal.

“Keep working on rescuing him here. I’ll test something,” Fang Mo instructed the others, then pulled out a large blade from behind.

Everyone in the room was shocked by what they saw.

Pepper was horrified by the scene, but since no one else reacted, she managed to stay calm.

As for Fang Mo, after making the incision, an unpleasant smell filled the air. It wasn’t the smell of blood, but rather something like a foul odor from a drainage system. It was hard to describe, but it was definitely uncomfortable.

Stark’s palladium poisoning was severe. His internal organs had turned a strange dark greenish-black color, and his blood vessels were twisted and tangled. It was a terrifying sight. Dr. Ho Yinsen hadn’t lied; Tony’s condition was critical.

“Oh my god, Tony!” Pepper couldn’t help but cover her mouth in shock.

“It looks really bad,” Nick Fury said, frowning, and turned to Fang Mo. “Can it still be cured?”

“Let’s give it a try,” Fang Mo replied. He raised his hand, and Steve handed him a vial of regenerative potion. With a bright flash, the potion appeared, and Fang Mo poured it into Tony’s mouth.

After administering the potion, Fang Mo called Dr. Ho Yinsen to join him. “Let’s see if my method will work.”

“Do you know which organ in the human body can be removed without causing death?” Fang Mo asked.

Dr. Ho Yinsen looked at Fang Mo, feeling overwhelmed. “I do. But is this how sorcerers heal?”

“Then what do you think we do?” Fang Mo waved his hand. “We chant and ask for blessings, perform elaborate rituals, and rely on powerful mysticism…”

“…You can try cutting here.” Dr. Ho Yinsen, thinking it might have been a mistake to involve Fang Mo, pointed and said, “This is the gallbladder. Even if you remove it, it’s okay. The common bile duct will take over its function…”

“Here we go.” Fang Mo raised his hand and brought down the knife.

“…”

Everyone in the room silently mourned for Tony, watching this scene. Even Nick Fury secretly concluded that sorcerers weren’t skilled at healing.

But what they didn’t expect was that, in an instant, the removed gallbladder started growing back…
