The Great Medical Saint novel Chapter 336

He grew serious and solemn, losing the arrogance and bloodlust he had just moments ago. It was like watching a clown suddenly stop smiling.

Matthew's pupils constricted, and he shrugged his shoulders as if adjusting his stance. Suddenly, Gideon attacked. His blade shone in the light, rushing straight toward Matthew's throat.

There was a dull smack, and Gideon flew back, landing on the ground with a heavy thud. Even the ground shook when he fell on it.

Gideon's face was twisted in pain, and blood seeped from his mouth. He stared at Matthew in disbelief.

"That's impossible! You can't possibly have reflexes that fast. The average human only has a reaction speed of 200 to 300 milliseconds. Even athletes with specialized training can only shorten it to 150 to 180 milliseconds, which means that the average human can react in 150 to 180 milliseconds.

"Highly-trained fighters can react in 150 milliseconds, but I attacked you when you were shrugging your shoulders. You can't possibly have reacted so quickly!"

"I can react in 90 milliseconds," Matthew said nonchalantly.

That… Gideon had a stunned expression on his face. "That's impossible! I've never seen anyone who could react in even 100 milliseconds. How could you…"

As he said that, his face twisted in pain. He looked down at his chest. There was a foot-shaped dent on his bleeding ribcage, and his clothes were soaked in blood. He was horrified.

"I… my bones are broken… my chest hurts terribly… I need surgery at once to fix it…"

As he said that, he used his knife to slice his shirt apart, peeling it off his skin. Then, he touched his chest gingerly.

As he did so, he let out a piercing scream. Beads of sweat appeared on his forehead and rolled down his face. He shuddered and let out a beast-like roar.

"There's no anesthesia around. It hurts. I'm going to die…"
