Your knowledge is too taboo

Chapter 8 I want to be a doctor!
In the mirror world, the Sith Federation.

After the cataclysm, most countries have disappeared. After all, pollution, radiation and various monsters have almost wiped out 90% of humans. Except for a few countries that are still persisting, most of them have turned into dust.Only a few cities were left to form a federation, struggling to survive on the land after the disaster.

The "Sith Federation" is one of the larger alliances.

In a small town quite far from the center of this federation.

The gray sand was swept by the wind and fell on a house sign, leaving behind the words [Small Town Clinic].

And inside the door, a man wearing a shabby, dirty white coat was sitting on a chair, reading a tattered book leisurely.

The printing effect of this book is extremely poor, and the font is crooked. At first glance, it looks like it was copied by someone who couldn't write. It was sold before the catastrophe. It is probably not a greeting to the seller's parents, but a plan to get the seller. Bury him somewhere and burn some paper for him next year.

But in the world after the cataclysm, this kind of "book" is simply a treasure.

After the Cataclysm, technology has declined significantly, and batch printing technology cannot be used on a large scale. It is good to have this.

Not to mention there’s a weird rule called “contamination.”

"Pollution" distorts all the items and knowledge before the catastrophe, making it inaccessible to ordinary humans.This has resulted in most books either drying out and rotting, or becoming a terrible source of pollution.Contact with ordinary people will only lead to mental breakdown, body rot, or simply growing new things.

The book in the white coat's hand is a product that has been certified by the Sith Federation and can be issued normally without causing pollution.It records the news after the catastrophe - this is knowledge that will not be contaminated, as well as some information from the old era that has been deciphered.

"The Sith Federal Information Agency deciphered the 'modern football rules' and plans to hold the first football match?"

Glancing at the content on the top page, the white coat frowned: "They are just fooling around! Football requires 11 people on each side. If the rules are not fully analyzed, then more than 20 people will be directly contaminated!"

The knowledge before the Cataclysm will show two results after being contaminated.

One is taboo knowledge that has evolved beyond human imagination.This kind of knowledge is similar to forbidden objects. Just knowing it has unimaginable power and still has the power to pollute;
The other is to quickly fade away from contamination and become harmless knowledge.Just like "1+1 equals 2", even if you know it, it will not have any impact.

But if the second kind of knowledge has not been thoroughly analyzed and there are still omissions in the rules, then there will still be the power of contamination.And everyone involved with this knowledge will be contaminated!

And the "modern rules of football" are knowledge that has been deciphering recently.

Because this kind of knowledge is relatively complex, it is likely to have gaps, so people have always treated it with caution.

But now the neighbor claims to have completely deciphered it, and even plans to hold a competition...

"It seems that the failure of the expedition some time ago has made the people above anxious, and they are planning to find something else to boost morale."

Scratching his head, the white coat sighed: "But relying on football... Tsk, the people above are so brave."

Football was not considered taboo knowledge before, everyone knew about football.

But "playing football" is taboo.

Because they don’t know the rules, and playing football must follow the rules of football, anyone who tries to “play football” when the rules have not been deciphered may lead to contamination.

To put it simply, people after the disaster knew what "football" was, but they didn't know what the rules were and how to play it, so no one had ever played it before.

So this also represents a lot of life after the Cataclysm.

It's possible that people knew about something pre-Cataclysm but didn't know enough about it to try it.

And now the West Federation claims to have completely deciphered the rules of football and plans to hold a football match...

They are so brave.

It would be funny if the deciphering of football rules was incomplete, or if modern football rules actually did not apply to football.

Putting down the tattered book in his hand, the white coat raised his head and glanced at the door.

He sensed that someone was rushing towards the clinic.

Sure enough, about a minute later, a pale young man stumbled into his clinic.

"Colin..."

Looking at the man rushing into the clinic, the man in the white coat sighed softly: "How is it?"

He was asking Colin about the results of his previous actions.He was the one who told Colin before that if he went to the snowy mountains, he might be able to find the forbidden object to save his brother.

Colin, on the other hand, staggered up to the white coat.

"Brother Zhao..."

Colin gasped for breath, his voice broken: "Is there... any way... to... become a 'doctor' quickly!"

Become a 'doctor'?
The white coat couldn't help but frown: "You want to be a 'doctor'?"

"Yes!"

The white coat's brows furrowed even more tightly: "Although I don't know where you heard it from, do you know what you are talking about?"

"Do you know what doctor means?"

The man in the white coat stood up and put his hands on the table: "That is extraordinary! It is knowing forbidden knowledge and gaining an existence that does not belong to human power!"

After the catastrophe, many people began to master special powers due to pollution.

This power comes in many forms, but one thing remains constant.

That is forbidden knowledge and forbidden objects, which may allow people to enter the transcendent realm.After becoming extraordinary, humans will be able to withstand more pollution and utilize the power of more pollution.

All in all, knowledge and taboo objects are the cornerstones of the extraordinary world!
And "doctor" is an extraordinary kind.

Although White Coat runs a clinic, he is not a "doctor."Because he is not extraordinary yet, he cannot use the power of pollution, nor does he have any special abilities.

After a moment of silence, the white coat continued: "Listen up Colin."

"I know your plan. If you can become extraordinary, you can use the power of pollution to help you treat your brother. Especially 'doctors', once they become extraordinary, they will have the power to cure diseases."

"But doctors are not so easy to become. Even in the entire Sith Federation, doctors are extremely rare. Although most people claim to be able to cure diseases, they only know some pathological knowledge and cannot be regarded as extraordinary. Do you know why? ?”

Colin heard this and wiped the sweat from his forehead: "...I don't know."

The white coat looked at Colin seriously: "Because it's too difficult!"

"It is said that the first step to becoming a doctor is to know an ancient, mysterious oath."

Having said this, the white coat couldn't help but feel a little discouraged.

Once upon a time, he also wanted to become a doctor, but... it was too difficult.

"You should know how many years are away from the Cataclysm?"

Before Colin could answer, the white coat said to himself: "Thousands of years. But do you know when that ancient oath was made?"

"It was born thousands of years before the catastrophe! This means that it may have existed longer than when we experienced the catastrophe!"

The white coat sighed: "Think about it, so many things have disappeared just in the thousands of years since our catastrophe, so what about before the catastrophe? So this is why it is very difficult to become a doctor - you want to become a doctor step by step , it is almost impossible for us! Because it is impossible for us to know that ancient oath. Unless, you use the power of taboo objects. Some pollutants are said to have the ability to make people become doctors. For example, in the past, a person obtained I got a piece of paper, which is called a 'medical license'..."

"So Colin, give up those useless fantasies!"

However, Colin seemed not to hear.

He just whispered the words in his white coat.

"Oath", "ancient"...

Soon he raised his head and nodded heavily towards the white coat: "I understand, thank you, Brother Zhao!"

White coat: "???"

Damn it, what did you understand? !
