Chapter 113   - Medical Bay

Slyvia had been in the medical bay for a while now and had almost made a full recovery. There were many people in the medical bay from yesterday's matches, who were told to stay overnight so they could get the proper care.

Unlike the others, Slyvia wasn't heavily damaged. Her muscles were just overused from using too much Ki, which would be quickly resolved with some rest. Although thanks to the doctors and Slyvia's own abilities, she was able to recover quicker than most.

While Slyvia was recovering she was amazed to see Gary get called in on a stretcher. Slyvia rushed over to see if he was okay. Just then Gary had just slightly regained consciousness and could see Slyvia threw the small slit in his eyes. He saw the worried look on her face and gave a thumbs up. She straight away knew this meant that Gary had won his match against Harry.

After checking up on Gary and seeing that he was all okay, Slyvia planned to go back up to the arena to give the other's her support but just as she was about to move, she heard a familiar voice crying her eyes out.

"Monk, you idiot, why did you do that?" Martha cried.

The doors to the medical bay opened once more and storming in through the doors were two doctors pulling another person on a stretcher and Martha just behind them.

"Please we need space." One of the doctors said to Martha.

Martha had stopped flowing Monk and the doctors as they went into a private room for treatment. The room was attached to the medical bay and was used for more serious injuries that needed an operation.

Slyvia quickly approached Martha and asked what happened. Martha explained the whole story about her match and what Monk had done. Slyvia could see that Martha was on the verge of breaking down and needed someone to be with her, so the two of them decided to wait for Monk while the matches were still going on.

A little while later and one of the doctors had come out of the medical room. Martha immediately stood up and rushed over to the doctor.

"Is he going to be okay?"

"Thankfully the injury wasn't too serious, we managed to remove the arrow from the body and we're currently supplying him painkillers. There doesn't seem to be any damage to his internal organs so his body should be able to do the rest of the work. The important thing is for him not to move about otherwise the wound could reopen again."

Martha and Slyvia bowed to the doctor as a sign of thanks before the doctor rushed off to check up on other patients. Now that Monk was back in top shape, Martha finally got to have a look at the situation in the medical bay.

"Wow, I didn't realise there were still so many people in here?" Martha said. "Were they really hurt that bad?"

Slyvia didn't find it strange at first because it was the arenas medical bay, so it was expected to have injured people here but what Martha had said made Slyvia think. The injuries of the contestant weren't too bad and even if they were, they didn't have the correct equipment at the arena to treat them all effectively.

There were only so many private rooms like the one Monk had gone too. If their injuries were truly bad, they should have been transported to the city hospital by now.

Slyvia began to walk around and check up on some of the patients her self. She had been part of the medical club for some time now so she had some basic understanding of medicine.

As she checked on the students, she noticed some students were showing signs of having a serious fever. Their temperature was high and they were sweating like crazy.

Meanwhile, Gary was one of the patients currently on the floor being treated by a doctor. Gary looked like he had completely passed out. He had a tough fight against Harry and just by looking at his body you could tell.

Although Gary's injuries weren't life-threatening so there was no need to take him into a private room. The doctor then pulled out a syringe and placed it just above Gary's arm. Just in case Gary was conscious the doctor was explaining the procedure as he went through it.

"Now I'm just going to administer a painkiller to numb the pain for you first, you're going to feel a small prick in your arm."

When the needle was just about to poke into Gary, the doctor suddenly felt his wrist being grabbed.

"What do you think you're doing?" Gary said.

Gary had been completely unconscious up until this point. While his eyes were closed, he heard a voice speak out to him.

"Gary, you're in danger… you are…. all… in danger."

Then when Gary had opened his eyes, he saw the doctor in front of him with the syringe.

"As I said, I'm just giving you a painkiller." The doctor said with a nervous smile. while Gary's hand was still holding his wrist.

Just then Slyvia and Martha appeared behind the doctor. After seeing the students come down with a fever she quickly rushed over to where Garry was.

Slyvia took the syringe from the doctor's hand and held it up in the air. Looking at the liquid flow forwards and backwards. The liquid was purple in colour and wasn't just moving backwards and forwards like a regular liquid.

If she left the syringe completely still the liquid would move about as if it was alive.

"I demand you to tell me what is in this liquid?" Slyvia said as she stared at the doctor.

"It's already too late."

Suddenly the groans of the students on the floor started getting louder. As if something was trying to claw out of their body.

"What is happening to them?" One of the doctors said as he was sitting next to a patient on the ground.

Some of the doctors were panicking trying to get the students to calm down, while some were just standing there watching. Suddenly a few of the doctors took off their white robes to reveal the clothing of the Dark guild underneath them.

The doctor that was still held by Gary's wrist started to laugh out loud like a madman. Gary picked up his weapon by his side and without hesitation stabbed the doctor right through his heart.

As Gary slowly stood up next to Martha and Slyvia the sight in front of them was unbelievable. The Students in the medical bay were no longer m.o.a.ning but now were slowly standing up. But as they did, they appeared almost lifeless. The white could be seen clearly in their eyes and they looked almost brain dead. The limbs would flop about as if they had lost control of their body.

The students where currently roaming around as if they were a bunch of zombies.
