Chapter 1466: Chapter 1466: It’s Him

The more Elder Roscente appeared unconcerned, the more troubling it became for Frederick Cole.

Elder Roscente, in his lifetime, had endured countless injuries for his country. Yet, ironically, he became a target for others, having to suffer even at such an old age.

Those people really went too far!

"Sit down and talk about it." Elder Roscente entered the room and sat down.

Frederick Cole sighed gently and said, "Elder Roscente, your current health condition requires immediate surgery; otherwise, your heart won’t withstand the post-medication decline."

"Hmm." Elder Roscente nodded, then asked, "Is it him?"

Frederick understood Elder Roscente’s implication and explained, "He initially suggested that you undergo conservative treatment, but now..."

"The situation is unique, indeed forcing him onto the operating table." Elder Roscente said with a smile.

"But this young fellow is The Great Sage, right?" Elder Roscente asked, "He’s no longer at the training camp, yet legends about him still circulate there."

The elite of the elite, the ace within aces, none but this one.

Back then, no international mission was beyond The Great Sage’s ability to complete.

Venturing solo through jungles, exploring uncharted territories – no matter how heavily armed the enemies were, no one could stop him.

His skills were extraordinary, his movements almost spectral; his identity was always kept secret, known only by a few top officials and those who had interacted with The Great Sage.

"Hmm." Frederick Cole nodded.

"I never knew The Great Sage was also a miracle doctor." Elder Roscente couldn’t help but laugh and said, "Wasn’t it him who performed surgery on that old fellow back then?"

This time he intended to find that old acquaintance’s chief surgeon, but he didn’t know it was Charles Seymour.

It was Frederick who made the contact, but the request was ultimately declined.

"The Great Sage had another codename." Frederick slowly began, "When he infiltrated that illegal company back then, he had a codename there – Wukong."

Elder Roscente’s eyes widened: "It’s him?"

"That was indeed a maverick doctor!" Elder Roscente burst into hearty laughter, "So it was him; no wonder my old acquaintance’s surgery succeeded back then."

The illness of his old acquaintance had made experts shake their heads, predicting a success rate of no more than ten percent, yet in the end, the surgery succeeded.

If Wukong was the surgeon, it would be understandable.

"You’ve certainly kept this well hidden." Elder Roscente smiled, looking at Frederick Cole.

"Wukong or The Great Sage, they’ve long shed their armor to become ordinary people." Frederick said with a smile, "Charles Seymour is just Charles Seymour; he only wants to live as an ordinary person."

Others may not know, but surely he does?

Back then, Charles Seymour infiltrated the illegal company as a mole and, with Sophie Wilson’s covert cooperation, dismantled the illegal company. After learning of Sophie’s death, he went berserk.

He completed missions recklessly.

The name of The Great Sage began to resound from that time onward by Charles Seymour.

"Elder Roscente, now isn’t the time to discuss this." Frederick said with knitted brows, "Charles mentioned before, he hasn’t wielded a scalpel for many years..."

"If it’s him, it doesn’t matter whether he’s handled a scalpel in years; I trust him." Elder Roscente said with a smile, "Those years ago, he was that illegal company’s top doctor – countless sought him for treatment. Though it’s been years, his skills can’t have dulled significantly."

"Even if his skills have dulled, he remains superior to other doctors." Elder Roscente said confidently.
