A Hospital in Another World? Chapter 1097: The Method of Making an Electron Microscope by Dreaming—Elder, I Want to Learn This!

If Elder Fahim wanted to see cells more clearly, Garrett desired it even more.

It's easy to go from frugality to extravagance but difficult to return. After experiencing the age of electron microscopes, it's impossible to be satisfied with the mere one or two thousand times magnification of an optical microscope.

Although Garrett had never personally operated an electron microscope in his past life, nor had he seen images produced by one, he had studied medical textbooks and seen diagrams. The precision of optical microscopes was utterly outclassed by electron microscopes.

However, as an 11th-level mage, a healing mage specializing in the Enchantment School, Garrett couldn't make an electron microscope by himself. His teacher might have created something similar, but as for his senior sister, her progress was unknown.

But seeking his teacher's help had already earned him a curt dismissal. As for relying on his senior sister, the physical distance made it impossible.

Fortunately, Elder Fahim presented himself as an opportunity. Although a legendary figure in the Natural School, unlike the Lightning School, which Garrett belonged to, a legendary figure was still a legend. Garrett pondered that he shouldn't let this opportunity go to waste.

He reached into his space bag and began setting up the generator, transformer, and vacuum tubes. With a casual gesture, the undead figure of Oknjinn descended, grasping the generator's handle, ready to go.

Anari Linga stepped back half a step, her elven face naturally showing a hint of disgust for the undead. Elder Fahim, however, smiled and shook his head at his disciple before turning to Garrett.

"What am I supposed to see?"

"Elder, please pay attention to whether there's something you haven't sensed before flying out of the vacuum tube."

"Hey, I know this! I know this!" Cirilla exclaimed happily. The silver dragon girl’s silver-blue eyes instantly turned into brilliant silver pupils as she peeked over Garrett’s shoulder.

Garrett waved her off and nodded to Elder Fahim.

"Ready. Let’s begin! Three! Two! One! Go!"

The dark gold skeleton vigorously cranked the handle. With a crackling sound, sparks flew, and Cirilla pouted discontentedly.

"It's too dim! Too dim! Just a tiny bit dimmer than the Star Dome! Garrett, increase the current!"

Garrett turned to Elder Fahim, who frowned slightly, deep in thought. After a moment, he looked at Garrett.

"It seems like I saw something, but it also feels like I didn't... Is it a problem with the current not being strong enough? Garrett, do you need my help?"

"...No, the voltage isn't high enough..."

Garrett took a deep breath, exhaled, and retracted the generator, allowing the two wires to float up by themselves. He reached into his space bag again, pulling out a superconducting suit and a transformer set, and pointed to the vacuum tube once more.

Zap!

The 11th-level mage, fully buffed and going all out, might not yet be as strong as his senior sister, but he was far stronger than Aurora back when she was a 6th-level mage!

"Yes! This time I can see it clearly! It’s strong!"

Cirilla shouted excitedly. Elder Fahim pondered for a moment but shook his head. Garrett was getting anxious.

"Elder, can’t you see it?"

If he couldn’t see it, then all of Garrett's subsequent plans would be impossible to implement!

"The little girl can see it?"

Elder Fahim turned to Cirilla, smiling lightly as he asked. Seeing Cirilla nod proudly, he pondered for a moment and then slowly stepped outside.

"How about this, Garrett, move your things outside and try again. Wait a bit; I'll call you when I'm ready..."

He said this while walking outside. After taking a dozen steps, he turned around and stood still. Without any visible effort, the magic beneath the tree's shade began to surge, and suddenly, a golden dragon even larger than Cirilla’s original form was standing firmly on the spot.

"Garrett, try again!"

Cirilla’s mouth slowly fell open as she looked up, her entire face filled with astonishment. Elder Fahim looked down at her and rumbled with laughter.

"Haha, little girl, don’t be so surprised. At my age, and as a legend, who doesn’t have a few dragon friends?"

Garrett: "..."

Honestly, using dragon transformation to solve the problem of observing X-rays was something I hadn’t thought of...

Garrett started the vacuum tube again. This time, Elder Fahim saw the X-rays emitted from the vacuum tube with his own eyes.

With this foundation, when Garrett later submitted the papers he co-authored with his senior brothers and sisters—well, they made him the first author—the reception was very positive.

For instance, "The Discovery of a New Type of Particle Much Smaller Than an Atom," which discussed electrons; and "The Properties of a New Type of Ray and Its Magical Damage," which discussed X-rays. Elder Fahim held the papers, reading them over and over, before asking Garrett.

"What do you want me to do?"

"Uh, could you, um, manually generate an electron stream..." Garrett awkwardly gestured.

"Use an electron stream to illuminate extremely small objects, like bacteria or cells. By observing the shadows cast by the electron stream blocked by the cells, you can see what they look like..."

Elder Fahim thought for a moment and nodded gently. It would be difficult, but it could be attempted.

Garrett eagerly waited for him to begin. But to his surprise, the elder walked slowly to the ancient tree in the middle of the clearing, leaned against it, and quietly fell asleep, holding his wooden staff.

Garrett: ???

"Master has gone into the dream realm to simulate it," Anari Linga stepped forward and said softly.

"Have you heard of the Emerald Dream of the Natural Servants?"

Garrett shook his head quickly. Well, he had heard of it, but only in his past life. Of course, it's also possible that he learned of the name through translation.

"Yes, Natural Servants immerse themselves directly into nature, connecting their spirit to the will of nature. Before conducting experiments, they simulate them first, which is both convenient and cost-effective..."

"Wait... Can you simulate an electron microscope too?" Garrett was surprised. Anari Linga looked at him with an expression that said, "Obviously."

"Of course, nature encompasses everything. Your electrons and rays also fall within the scope of nature. Wait a bit. Once Master successfully simulates it in the Emerald Dream, he’ll start working on it in reality. He might even let us take a peek inside."

Garrett: !

!

Elder, I want to learn this!

Compared to setting up a lab, hiring staff, and tinkering with equipment, just taking a nap under an oak tree to simulate most of the experiment—that would be pure joy!

And it would save hundreds, if not thousands, of lab animals!

"Can you teach me this?"

"Of course! The Elves have always chosen their Natural Servants based on their ability to enter the Emerald Dream! You don’t know how yet?—Honestly, humans have lost so much knowledge. You won't be allowed to leave until you learn the Emerald Dream..."
