Chapter 385 Pressure of the Finals

Although Melody found this approach a bit extreme, she had to admit it was incredibly effective, Satisfied, she nestled comfortably into Edward's arms, finally feeling a bit of the tension release.

But she didn't forget to address Craig, whose expression mirrored her, exhausted and a bit defeated."

"Dr. Stirland, even though we managed to reconnect Spencer's knee meridians through minimally invasive surgery, I can't guarantee he'll be able to walk again," she said. "I'll have to trouble you to oversee his follow-up recovery."

After she gave these instructions, a hollow feeling washed over her, the kind that followed an intense focus and sudden release.

"Understood, Ms. Tucker. But please, go get some rest yourself, replied Craig. "Two days have passed, and even the toughest body has limits."

As a doctor, Craig knew all too well that Melody's practical skills surpassed those of many highly specialized neurosurgeons worldwide.

But then again, considering she was a student at Greenfield University and an associate of Pharma821. genius-level abilities seemed less surprising

her

After all, Greenfield University only accepted the exceptionally talented. Even Gary had been admitted based on his athletic prowess alone, and his natural skill in sports allowed him to earn a top reputation in the underground boxing tournament. Greenfield University's selection was based purely on capability; without exceptional talent, no one could enter this prestigious school.

Take Martin, for example. Despite his humble background, he got into Greenfield University. He even became the student council president, later building a reputation in finance as a prodigy and rising star Globally, rumors circulated that Greenfield University never nurtured idlers

You might pass by an unassuming sanitation worker who, unbeknownst to you, holds dozens of patents from multiple countries. Sweeping the streets could be their way of unwinding after research.

Melody knew Craig's background and his close connections to the Aventras royal family supporting Spencer, so she felt confident leaving Spencer's care to him.

She needed to make the most of her time to recover-after all, tomorrow, she'd have to step back into the octagon ring for the finals.

The organizers from Gregoria could be downright devious.

Regardless of who they had working the venue, from internal agents to middle and upper management, even top-level figures like William, the international match manager, not a single person knew the location of the championship prize until it was unveiled through 'official channels' after the finals.

And then, there was the matter of how to unlock the secure chest containing these treasures.

The International Underground Boxing Tournament was entirely under the control of Gregoria's top officials, and everyone knew that the champion's prize was always a world-coveted masterpiece.

This time, rumors had spread that there were two treasures.

One of them is the Veinspire Codex, a national treasure of Cleussau

Many of the boxing competitors from Cleussau, apart from those like Melody, who genuinely needed the Veinspire Codex for healing, or Robson, the head of the Finns, had their sights set on bringing this national treasure back home. Each year, Gregoria's underground boxing tournament featured highly targeted prizes, often artifacts or academic achievements from other nations, specifically designed to draw fighters from that country to participate.

But under the tight control of Gregoria's leaders, it was typically one of their own fighters who took the championship, deliberately mocking the foreign competitors who could not reclaim their national treasures despite giving everything they had. The international community had long condemned this underhanded tactic of humiliating other

countries.

Yet, since Gregoria's prizes dangled as bait for national treasure, there was no other option to recover them through these shadowy channels, a fact that only made Gregoria more arrogant.

For these reasons, while the Moore family held considerable influence in Sommerville, they couldn't openly move against Gregoria's organizers.

Interfering with international issues at that level could trigger political disputes and risk setting a trap for Cleussau.

Melody understood this well, so she had never considered stealing back the Veinspire Codex

the sole remaining work of Liarn, the legendary Cleussauan medicine doctor, the handbook's presence

in Gregoria's hands, used to trap and humiliate Cleussanan fighters, was a travesty.

But since it was lost abroad, Melody felt strongly that it had to be won back openly and honorably. And if it went missing again, the world would witness this unique piece of Cleussau's medicine heritage being stolen!
