About the rewards at the hospital, Zhou Yi consulted with the professional Guan Zhong.

This individual has managed the unified procedural control over the Mechanical and Electrical City Group, with rich experience.

Guan Zhong said, "Under the corporate system, Da Vinci's pursuit is no longer about increasing skill ratings, but further developing new surgeries and drugs to make more breakthroughs in the medical field.

"A well-equipped, adequately staffed, and resource-rich hospital is what every medical professional desires. In a high-quality medical environment, they can better realize their professional aspirations."

"Of course, direct rewards are also indispensable."

"Although I don't know much about medicine, I do know that Guangna Organ cancer is a major terminal illness. Life-extending stem cells and organ repair surgeries can be said to be a historic breakthrough in the entire medical field."

He continued, "I suggest rewarding the Da Vinci team with 100,000 Light Seeds, establish a medical research institution, provide dedicated funding, expand the hospital's scale and manpower, and reduce the pressure on existing medical staff."

Guan Zhong's suggestions focused on solving the primary difficulties faced by hospital staff.

Receive cash rewards, increase staff to reduce their workload, and provide more research funding.

Zhou Yi immediately adopted the suggestions.

He further communicated with Da Vinci to understand the specific situation of the hospital.

The final formal plan was announced through electric cat and Recursive City.

——The Da Vinci team (including Feng Ying, Lily...) made pioneering and significant contributions to the treatment of malignant Guangna tumors with their life-extending stem cells and organ repair surgeries. They are awarded the special achievement award of the Wasteland Invention Award, rewarding the entire team with 100,000 Light Seeds of bonus.

——From now on, Maria Hospital and Bone Laboratory will merge into the company's medical department, with Da Vinci serving as the head. The Bone Laboratory will be renamed the Medical and Bone Laboratory, and will continue to be led by Bi Qi.

——The medical department is officially recruiting talents. Current positions include doctors of all departments, pharmacists, rehabilitation therapists, nurses, interns, and caregivers. Regardless of medical experience and qualifications, as long as you are meticulous and willing to learn long-term, you are welcome to apply to this department. Exceptional individuals can negotiate salaries directly with Head Da Vinci.

——The following are the onboarding salary and benefits, medical services are free, housing allocation is not included in the annual bonus.

Doctor: 5-3000 Light Seeds/year

Pharmacist: 4 Light Seeds/year

Rehabilitation Therapist: 3 Light Seeds/year

...

The substantial salary increase at the hospital, coupled with the official recruitment expansion, attracted many applicants.

However, most were only qualified for nurse and intern standards.

Positions like doctors and pharmacists, which required higher professional degrees, were almost exclusively filled by professionals from other hospitals. Many of them traveled overnight by airship to not miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

In this open recruitment, Da Vinci recruited 4 doctors, 3 pharmacists, 2 rehabilitation therapists, 4 nurses, and several one-year interns and caregivers.

Two individuals were particularly notable.

Da Vinci gave a face-to-face report to Zhou Yi for them.

"Chairman, both of these are very outstanding."

A resume appeared on Da Vinci's imaging cart.

In the top left corner was a robot with a square head display, reminding Zhou Yi of the old TV merchant on the Forbidden Continent, though this one had four mechanical arms.

Its name was Galen III B17, a mechanical life, a B-grade Deputy Chief Physician, specializing in anatomy and cell physiology.

Galen had 36 years of medical experience, always working at Coral Port's port hospital, with no professional blemishes.

After Coral Port joined the Heavenly Kingdom, it did not leave.

This time it came for the life-extending stem cells and organ repair surgeries.

"Galen has many years of research in the field of cells, with extensive accumulation and surgical experience. Its addition will contribute to the cultivation and further use of life-extending stem cells."

Da Vinci said, "It desires to learn this exclusive corporate medical technology, so it resigned from Coral Port, paying a massive penalty fee for it."

Zhou Yi asked, "How much was the penalty fee?"

"20,000 Light Seeds."

"That's quite a lot indeed."

Zhou Yi nodded, "Let's observe for a year first. If Galen proves to be exceptionally skilled and makes significant contributions to the company and the hospital, the company can reimburse the penalty fee, as a benefit for outstanding staff. The decision is up to you."

"Yes, Chairman."

Following, it introduced another new employee.

The resume revealed a human face, a young girl with single eyelids.

Her name was Jin Xizhu, with a somewhat Korean style name.

Jin Xizhu, 22, had 6 years of medical experience. Previously, she worked as a Spiritual Consciousness Doctor at the Rehabilitation Center on Hundred Schools Plateau, treating over 120 special patients.

"Her enhanced organ is in the brain, and her ability is [sealing]. Although she is only an E-grade enhancer, this ability can block the damaged parts of a patient's consciousness, just like numbing a wound to reduce pain."

"As long as it's not deliberately triggered or sought, combined with medication, it can maintain stability for 1 to 3 years, after which a new round of sealing and reinforcement is needed."

Da Vinci explained, "There are quite a few patients with issues in consciousness. Matter and consciousness are two sides of the same coin, but most of the time, we can only treat through the material side with drugs."

"Only those with special abilities like Doctor Jin can specifically target the treatment. In the domain of consciousness, the related technical equipment is still not directly controllable."

"Existing data show that even in the heyday of civilization, old humans were very cautious about the consciousness domain. They tried inserting wires into the brain, installing brain-machine interfaces to enter the consciousness domain, but apparently, there was no real success."

"So they could only rely on psychiatrists combined with medication to treat patients with consciousness disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease, schizophrenia, post-traumatic stress disorder, and so on."

"In the past, Bone-man Jacob lost a piece of his skull, leading to suspected personality split, which was also a manifestation of consciousness trauma."

"Now, we can formally establish the Spiritual Consciousness Department."

It added, "Chairman, I request for Sun Hao to join the Spiritual Consciousness Department. His innate ability is to be a Consciousness Doctor, capable of treating many patients with consciousness trauma."

Zhou Yi pondered, "I'm not against it, as long as he is willing."

"He is willing!"

Zhou Yi realized, "Was it Sun Hao who asked you to speak for him?"

Da Vinci spoke frankly, "Chairman, he dared not ask you himself. Because of the Dream Demon affair, he feared you would refuse."

It was understandable.

Sun Hao was one of the healers from the Angel of Death branch, possessing the ability of [Consciousness Puzzle], capable of piecing together broken consciousness.

If Jin Xizhu's role is isolating and numbing, reducing patient pain, Sun Hao's role is more fundamentally stitching together the wounds of consciousness. They are like treating symptoms and root cause.

However, with treatment progress, the Dream Demon that evolves from Sun Hao's Consciousness Puzzle will also continue to strengthen.

But it doesn't matter now.

If the Dream Demon dares to create trouble, Zhou Yi can capture it from the Great Holy Spirit.

If it misbehaves, it will be thrown to the Cave People as an electronic record book, akin to the treatment of Mechanical Administrators.

Zhou Yi asked, "Why did Doctor Jin come to us?"

"High salary."

Da Vinci said, "Additionally, the Legal Front's bombing of the Hundred Schools Plateau's hinterland caused much fear and worry among the locals."

"The company's destruction of Chuneng City and Spring City, forcing the Legal Front to pay patent fees, demonstrated tremendous comprehensive strength and a determination to protect its interests."

"Seeing the open recruitment, Doctor Jin quickly came over, seeking a more secure and stable settlement, a choice representing the majority."

"However…"

Da Vinci continued, "I discussed this with her, and Doctor Jin mentioned another significant reason – fewer doctor-patient conflicts here."

Maria Hospital is a non-profit hospital, providing free medical services to company employees, so visitors are generally honest and courteous, lacking significant hostility.

External patients coming here for treatment are mostly seeking medical help, and with the company's reputation, they generally respect the doctors and nurses.

This is not the same elsewhere.

Guangna Species enjoy a high status and priority medical rights, along with expensive treatment fees leading to inevitable disputes between patients and doctors, sometimes escalating into group conflicts and violence.

"Thank you for your support for the medical cause! The medical department will make good use of the company's high-quality resources!"

Da Vinci said, "I can't guarantee how many achievements we'll produce. But now that we have sufficient staffing, doctors can get more rest, treat more patients, handle more difficult cases, and save more lives."

"Thank you, Chairman, thank you, company!"

Zhou Yi smiled slightly, "Also, thank you all for ensuring the most critical logistics for the company."

He raised his right arm and moved his prosthetic, "I have you to thank as well for taking care of me, otherwise I wouldn't even have an arm to use."

"Chairman, your right arm needs an immediate check-up, it's been a while since your last hospital review."

"No need…"

"No, Chairman, normally it should be checked monthly, but you've missed it for half a year. I must check it for you, as your Chief Physician, it's a doctor's responsibility."

"It's really fine…"

"Chairman, you are a patient, and patients must listen to their doctors!"

"…"

Zhou Yi could only helplessly lie on the hospital bed.

Da Vinci began inspecting the prosthetic with its mechanical arm.

"There's much dust accumulated inside, affecting overall flexibility, and the delay has exceeded the average value."

"You didn't follow my instructions for regular cleaning; there's also some Light Soot Sand inside the mechanical joints. This can cause the fingers to move involuntarily, affecting your daily life and causing errors in crucial moments."

"In the conditioned reflex test, only four fingers responded; the little finger can't straighten anymore… The thumb is also misaligned and twisted."

"The shock absorption hydraulic system inside the forearm is visibly loose, huh? How did a peanut get stuck in here? Didn't you feel uncomfortable?"

"I will give you thorough maintenance and repair… To reduce impact on your health and brain, no anesthesia is required."

Da Vinci babbled on.

Stop it, master.

Zhou Yi closed his eyes in pain, the numbness from the prosthetic to the arm and the high-frequency pricking sensation made his mouth twitch.

It felt like a Gatling gun was firing an array of injections.

That's why Zhou Yi was reluctant to go for hospital follow-ups.

Every time it felt tougher than a real fight on the battlefield.

…

Finally, the painful check-up ended. Da Vinci left the room.

Zhou Yi clenched his left fist.

I will become a Light Core Body, restore my arm! Stay away from the hospital!

The desire to get stronger had never been so intense!
