Chapter 1499 What’s wrong with my little dragon? Tell me!
The copper dragon Noctis is extremely troubled.
His son, his eldest son, was the only young dragon hatched from his litter and successfully awakened his true name, but his growth was very unsatisfactory.
At this age, other copper dragon hatchlings can already eat centipedes, red scorpions, sand scorpions, and various poisonous insects.
As soon as his son ate poisonous insects, he immediately started coughing, sputum, chest pain, and back pain;
At this age, other copper dragon hatchlings have grown to six feet in length, with a tail length of at least four feet, and can breathe acid at least three times a day.
His son was only four and a half feet long and looked like a small lump. As soon as he started breathing, he immediately coughed into a mess;
Other young copper dragons are born with the ability to walk freely on stone walls, just like climbing. His son can fall off after just a few steps on the stone wall——
How can this be done?
The red copper dragon living in the cave in the heart of the mountain cannot even walk around on the stone wall. It will be very difficult in the future!
To this end, the copper dragon Noctis took his children to search for the elders of the copper dragon, as well as the dragon elders who were good at healing.
All the examinations were done, and all the healing magic that could be used on the young dragon was used, but there was no progress. With no choice but to do so, he set his expectant eyes on the new human magician...
In order to seek a glimmer of hope, he did not hesitate to run up and down, contacting the legendary dragon, and promoting the dragon tribe's recognition of the arrival of humans in large numbers;
At the expense of going back and forth, he negotiated with Andre and Cynthia in many ways to negotiate the compensation needed to set up a mage tower in their territory;
He did not hesitate to travel across the ocean, go to Nevis in person to communicate with humans, and invited a group of magicians to come...
After doing so much for you, why don’t you take my son’s affairs to heart! Why don’t you give priority to studying his condition! Why don’t you cure him quickly!
Half a month after the Mage Tower was built, Noctis took his children to Gretel twice. The first trip was for a comprehensive physical examination and to take samples for chromosome testing;
The second trip is now, to get the results of the physical examination, and at the same time, I simply stay here and don’t leave!
Gretel also attached great importance to this case. After all, the child could not afford to wait. However, it was not that simple to cure a young dragon. He had racked his brains and done all the tests he could:
indigestion?
He asked Noctis to spit out some gastric juice and compared it with the gastric juice of the young dragon. The ingredients were different, but he was not sure whether that difference was directly related to indigestion;
Is there damage to the digestive tract?
He had seen X-rays, CT scans, and MRIs. Maybe it was because he didn’t know enough about the young dragons. Neither the tower spirit nor the oak staff took the initiative to report an error. Grete had to roll up his sleeves and read them one by one:
esophagus?
Why is the dragon's esophagus so covered with wrinkles and scales? It's really difficult to find out the esophageal holes through imaging;
Gastric ulcer?
In the same way, he was not familiar with the structure of the dragon's stomach. If he asked whether there was an ulcer, he couldn't tell it simply from the images;
As for intestinal ulcers, cardiac insufficiency, etc., the same is true. His understanding of the Dragon Clan is really too little.
"We need to do some more tests. In addition, are there any other dragon clans that can give me a comparison?"
Gretel sat in front of the copper dragon Noctis and answered seriously. Noctis frowned and tried hard to hold back the question "Why do we need to do the inspection?" and asked directly:
"What else should I check?"
"Do a gastroscopy. Oh, it means wrapping the secret eye with vines and entering it from his throat into his stomach. Let me take a closer look. Now I suspect that there is a tear from his throat to his stomach, and the image cannot be seen clearly.
You have to look directly."
Wrapped in vines... Noctis thought about the operation method and frowned even more:
"Would it make the child feel uncomfortable if the vines extend in? For example, make him want to vomit or something? Is there any other way?"
If you want to vomit... you will definitely want to vomit. During esophagoscopy and gastroscopy, vomiting is almost inevitable. Generally speaking, it is suppressed by strong anesthesia, so that the epiglottis does not feel irritation.
Grete replied calmly:
"There will definitely be discomfort. If you open your mouth for a long time, or endure a vine inserted through your nostrils for a long time, it will definitely not be very comfortable. However, our magic can suppress the discomfort to the greatest extent.
Feeling."
"But……"
"If you don't use the vines to observe, it will be the same if you let the spirit of the incorporeal contract go in and take a look." Grete summoned the incorporeal snake in response.
Noctis stared at the little snake for a long time, tried to feel its energy level, and shook his head:
"Let's use vines first..."
This little snake is too strong, too strong, much stronger than his child. Even if a virtual body or a spiritual body enters his child's body, the spiritual pressure may have an adverse effect on the child.
"That would be great if you agree." Gretel stood up and shook hands with him:
"Of course, I hope to find more dragons. Copper dragons are the best, but if that doesn't work, dragon beasts can also be used. Let me check them one by one to know what healthy dragons look like. It will also be convenient for comparison, right?"
That afternoon, in the examination room on the first floor of the mage tower, the little baby dragon stood in front of Gretel, with a nervous look on his face. Gretel sat opposite him, also a little nervous:
The so-called small dragons are compared to the adult dragons. With a body length of 1.5 meters, a tail length of 1 meter, and a shoulder height of 0.8 meters, the dragon family is actually not small at all, and is taller than a wolf.
If this person were to pounce on him, the back of his head would hit the ground on the spot...
"Don't worry, it doesn't hurt or itch. Just sit quietly and you'll be fine in a while..."
He first threw out several anesthesia spells to numb everything from the nostrils to the epiglottis. Then a green vine emerged from between his fingers, rolled up the secret eye, penetrated Xiaolong's nostrils, and snaked into the esophagus.
Look up and down carefully:
"Hmm... normal, normal, normal... it's normal here... further down... Huh?"
"What's the matter?"
The copper dragon Noctis immediately stretched his head over. Gretel moved the vines, observed them carefully several times, and looked at the young dragon with a pleasant expression:
"Come on, why don't you try to swallow? Pretend to eat something?"
The young dragon followed the instructions and swallowed a few times. The folded esophagus relaxed as it moved. Gretel stared at a fixed point on the esophagus for a long time, and took a long breath:
"Currently, it looks like a hiatal hernia, which is congenital. So after eating something, gastric juice will reflux. If you eat food with poisonous sacs, the reflux will be even more severe and make the child uncomfortable. This is not difficult, just block it.
good."
"What? What is it?... I have been treated with therapy several times before, why can't it be cured?"
