Chapter 646 I Want to Give Birth at Oak Grove Hospital! You Can Live in the Corridor!
Although she experienced something that was hard to describe, Grete was still very happy. It’s good to be able to feel contractions. Being able to feel contractions means that the mother can feel her own condition;
Being able to feel uterine contractions means that the mother can cooperate with the uterine contractions and push the fetus downward independently;
If you can feel uterine contractions, it means that you can technically pass the labor analgesia using [Pain Reduction and Spinal Anesthesia Version]!
And it's cheap! This is an apprentice-level spell! Beginners to spellcasting can also complete it as long as they master the method of casting spells!
So, early the next morning, Grete gathered all the spell casters from the Oak Grove Medical Clinic and the Baby-Friendly Medical Clinic. He excitedly took out a stack of study scrolls and slapped them in front of them:
"Start now! All spellcasters! Learn this spell together!"
Unified study, unified assessment, if you pass the exam, come to the ward and release the magic of labor analgesia on the patient!
The spellcasters are eager to learn.
This spell is great, the art does not overwhelm the body, and the pain relief magic is never too much. After learning it, even if it is not used in childbirth care, it can also be used in leg and abdominal surgeries.
If it really doesn’t work, I can go out on my own adventures in the future, and I can also relieve pain for myself——
study!
Use mechanics!
Study to the death!
Learn one by one!
"Ah, do we also want to learn?"
A necromancer raised his hand tremblingly in the back row. Before Grete could answer, Leon Carlos turned his head and raised his voice:
"Of course I have to learn! I don't want you to exchange money for it. I'll learn it for free. Why do you ask more? Have you used up all the spells in your daily work? If you haven't used up, just go to the ward and cast spells on the patients!"
"Let me add something." Grete added with a smile:
"Everyone from Black Crow Swamp, when you come to the front, remember to take a shower, change your clothes, wash your hands, and abide by the sterile operating rules. If anyone scares my patients or contaminates the ward, I will punish them~~~ "
"Yes! Lord Nordmark!"
The necromancers answered in unison.
As the casters progress in learning, the magic version of painless childbirth is slowly being introduced. Level 2 magician Cress O'Connell, accompanied by her family, received this good news when she arrived at Oak Grove Medical Clinic:
"Can the price be reduced? It doesn't cost as much as 2,000 gold coins? You need to give birth by yourself, but can it be pain-free?"
"Yes!" Grete nodded with a smile:
"We have found a way to give birth painlessly. Of course, it is not completely painless, because the casters need to take turns on duty. The duration of a spell is about 2 hours to 5 or 6 hours. After the spell fails, there must always be some A gap..."
The couple nodded in understanding. A labor lasts for more than a day and a night, and no spellcaster can last for such a long time - without enough sleep, there are no spell slots. Taking turns is necessary and necessary.
"Taking into account the different durations, you may need pain seven or eight times at most, a few minutes at most -"
A few minutes is the time it takes for the caster to rush into the delivery room from being notified.
He winked, and the leather-clad skeleton nurse next to him slowly stepped forward and handed over a new charging form:
"The spell will be cast by an intermediate spellcaster. A delivery will cost 500 gold coins for analgesia. According to the agreement with the council, you only need to pay 250 gold coins out of pocket."
Well, this point needs to be sent to the parliament as soon as possible and added to the agreement. But it saves the parliament money, so they should be willing:
"If you really can't give birth, you have to have a cesarean section, and the cost will be paid separately. However, according to our current statistics, less than 10 out of 100 people need to have a cesarean section—"
"emmmm..."
Cress lowered her head and pondered. If the baby is not born after a long time and has to be converted to a cesarean section, wouldn't the 250 gold coins be thrown into the water?
She was torn between the risks and benefits of spending money, and couldn't decide for the moment. Next to her, the husband who accompanied her was very moved. He touched her arm repeatedly and winked:
250 gold coins is great!
So much less!
Magicians earn relatively well, but their expenses are also high. He himself is a level 3 mage, and his wife is a level 2 mage. In addition to daily life and research, he has to save 1,000 gold coins, which is the result of their frugal life and clothing in the two years since their marriage.
Although for the safety and health of my wife, I gritted my teeth and chose a cesarean section, but after paying this money, the family's savings immediately shrank by more than half...
If you can only pay 250 gold coins, then your wife will have better recovery conditions after giving birth. She will have money in hand and not panic!
Doesn’t it just hurt for seven or eight minutes? It still hurts from a distance!
"Okay, then we will choose painless delivery! Master Mage, please!"
Cress finally made up her mind and looked up to answer. After speaking, he put one hand on the table and the other on his waist, and stood up with difficulty. Gretel personally escorted the couple into the delivery room, helped her lie down on her side, and activated [Detection Magic]——
one two three four five six. After the positioning of the sixth thoracic vertebra is completed, place your fingertips near the back spine, [Delay Pain·Spinal Anesthesia], activate!
Cress let out a gasp from the bed. Her husband instantly bent down, grabbed her right hand tightly, and pressed his fingers into a deep dimple on the back of his wife's hand:
"What's wrong? What's wrong?"
"Hey, it really doesn't hurt anymore!"
"If it doesn't hurt, just live well." Gretel smiled at them, quickly scrawled a few strokes on the bedside book, and recorded the casting time:
"It is now 9:35 in the morning. I am a level 6 mage. The duration of my spell casting is 6 hours. Remember to call the midwife at 3:30 in the afternoon and notify the caster to come over and cast the spell again -"
"Okay, okay! Definitely!"
The husband gratefully followed me out to pay. 250 gold coins, so cheap!
It’s not more than they can bear!
To give birth at home, hire a midwife and a magician just in case, and the door-to-door fee is 10 gold coins! If treatment is needed, a [Treat Minor Injuries] level magical spell is worth 50 gold coins!
Chrissy stayed at Oak Grove Medical Center for three days, and under the care of painless birth magic, she gave birth to a baby safely. Bringing the baby home immediately caused a sensation among relatives and friends:
"What? Just 250 gold coins?"
"No need for 1,000 gold coins, just 250?"
"We can afford 250! A first-level magician can earn more than 100 gold coins a year. If you save for two years, you won't have to suffer when you have a child. It's a great deal!"
The 80/20 rule is particularly obvious among magicians. More than 80% of magicians are low-level mages and will never reach level 5 in their lifetime.
For them, especially young mages, it is difficult to come up with 1,000 gold coins, but it is much more convenient to come up with 250 gold coins. In addition to magicians, wealthy businessmen, minor nobles, and wealthy farmers also came one after another:
"Isn't it just 500 gold coins! I can afford it! I want to give birth in Oak Grove Hospital! I can live in the corridor!"
