"...What a great thing!"
Chu Minghao looked at the Holy Grail floating before him and praised it loudly.
It truly was a fine thing. Wu Pifu nodded repeatedly.
At present, although Night Watchers did not often encounter above-limit attacks while traversing Dream Worlds, anyone who walked the night often enough would eventually run into ghosts.
By now, several hundred Night Watchers had been forced to leave the Night Watchers due to irreversible injuries. Human technology could only repair straightforward bodily damage; there were almost no effective treatments for extraordinary contamination, distortion, corrosion, and the like.
At the same time, humanity's extraordinary power system had not yet been fully established. Although there were extraordinary individuals specializing in medical treatment, healing, and restoration, their numbers were small and they had no coherent system. Moreover, their methods were not necessarily suited to every condition. As a result, more and more Night Watchers had accumulated irreversible injuries.
Those in relatively good condition could still return to ordinary lives, effectively retiring from being Night Watchers. Those in poor condition either languished in hospital beds or had to be imprisoned and guarded. The latter group in particular was Better Dead Than Alive. In many cases, killing them was actually an act of mercy.
Wu Pifu knew about these matters too, but he had no way to solve them. Neither could Chu Minghao, nor Liang Min. Even though the human government had gathered most scientists and scholars, along with assistance from the companies that had defected to them, they still could not resolve this problem. The number of Night Watchers in miserable circumstances continued to grow.
Now that they had the Holy Grail, they could not say for certain that it would heal them, but at least it offered another glimmer of hope.
