Chapter 513 - 352: Terrifying Physical Exam Data (Part 2)
Additionally, arterial blood and venous blood can also differ in color due to varying oxygen levels. Blood with a high oxygen content appears bright red, usually arterial blood, while blood with a low oxygen content appears dark red, typically venous blood. Most blood donations or blood tests use venous blood, so it appears dark red externally. If the blood contains more methemoglobin or other hemoglobin derivatives, it looks purplish-black. Plasma, due to a small amount of bilirubin, appears transparent pale yellow; if it contains chylomicrons, it appears milky and cloudy; if hemolysis occurs, it results in red plasma.
In short, apart from some rare disease patients, most should still see red.
This is also the most common blood color among vertebrates, including humans, mammals, most fish, amphibians, reptiles, and birds.
However, at this moment, Wang Ye’s blood is pure black,
so black that not a hint of red can be seen.
Not even light can pass through it.
The nurse intended to take these tubes of blood to the lab for testing, to find out what components were contained within that made it so black.
But the instant her fingers touched the body of the tube, she suddenly shivered.
The tube filled with blood fell to the ground, making a "snap" sound.
Fortunately, the tube was made of plastic, not easily shattered.
Ning Junyi walked over and scolded, "Clumsy! Be more careful with your work!"
"Sorry, sorry!" The nurse quickly bowed and apologized to Wang Ye and Ning Junyi.
During her apology, her heart was filled with suspicion,
She had been serving in the Joint Logistics Support Force for so many years and had drawn blood at least hundreds of times, if not a thousand, how could she make such a basic mistake?
She carefully recalled the feeling when she touched the tube, it seemed as if her fingers were burnt as if they touched a flame.
But why would the blood be scalding hot?
No matter how high someone’s body temperature is, it couldn’t exceed forty degrees Celsius.
At forty degrees, it’s not even hot enough to warm hands.
And yet it was contained in a plastic blood collection tube for so long.
Even if it was over forty degrees, after such a long time for the heat to dissipate, it should have dropped to around twenty degrees Celsius.
The nurse tried again to touch the plastic tube containing the black blood.
But she was scalded once more.
This time, however, she could confirm the temperature of the plastic tube.
Absolutely above seventy degrees.
Luckily, the plastic tube was made of heat-resistant material, otherwise, it would have melted and had to be drawn again.
Why is Wang Ye’s blood so hot?
A storm was brewing inside the nurse’s mind.
The color of the blood being so black was one thing, some patients with special diseases also have dark blood, but something this hot, there probably isn’t a second like it in the world, considering a human body temperature over forty degrees can cause a sudden death risk,
Those with a cold or fever feel their brains are burning at thirty-eight degrees, let alone forty degrees which can leave irreversible brain damage.
And now, Wang Ye’s body temperature is at least seventy degrees and rising, this temperature would probably cook a normal person’s brains dry.
Yet on the surface, Wang Ye didn’t show any signs of abnormality,
the nurse couldn’t even feel anything unusual about Wang Ye’s body temperature when she held his arm.
This means that Wang Ye’s thin layer of skin was forcibly keeping the nearly boiling blood temperature contained without letting it escape. Not even the best thermal insulator in the world could achieve this, could it?
The nurse’s gaze toward Wang Ye became increasingly terrified.
Is this still human? It wouldn’t be outrageous to call this a monster!
Considering Wang Ye’s superhuman strength and the many athletic records he has shattered,
and the reports of explosions and tornado sounds continuously coming from the wilderness during this time.
The nurse did not dare ask further questions.
She put on gloves, cautiously picked up the tubes of blood, and sent them to the lab.
Meanwhile, Wang Ye also began the second test.
Which is a heart ultrasound test.
The heart ultrasound required Wang Ye to lie on the bed, take off his shirt, and undergo probe examination.
The probe transmits the image of the chest cavity to the screen, which dynamically displays the heart chamber structure, heart beat, and blood flow.
It can detect the heart rate and if there is any damage inside the heart, along with the milliliters of blood being pumped.
Initially, when Wang Ye first participated in a half-marathon, it was during a heart ultrasound test where a sinoatrial bradycardia issue was detected. However, the slow heart rate wasn’t necessarily a bad thing, instead, it was a side effect caused by Wang Ye’s excessively robust physique.
For instance, Bolt’s heart rate is about thirty beats per minute.
The heart rate of an average person is usually sixty to seventy beats per minute.
Some with poorer physiques may even reach eighty beats per minute.
If it goes faster, it’s sinus tachycardia, possibly indicating hyperthyroidism or other diseases.
When Wang Ye’s physique was still two to three times that of an ordinary person, his heart rate had already dropped to thirty beats per minute.
Now that Wang Ye’s physique is three to four times that of a normal person, his heart rate naturally has undergone dramatic changes.
In fact, Wang Ye doesn’t need to rely on heart ultrasounds now, he can introspectively examine his internal organs himself,
his heart rate is now fully controllable by his thoughts.
If he wishes, he can have his heart stop beating entirely for an hour.
Of course, this is on the condition that he is not engaged in high-intensity exercise.
For high-intensity exercise, it’s necessary to increase the heart rate to supply blood.
Moreover, Wang Ye’s maximum heart rate is countless times higher than the average person’s.
When sprinting beyond the speed of sound, his heart rate can peak at five hundred beats per minute. Just like a small electric motor.
Correspondingly, the energy efficiency of such a heart rate is astonishingly high, allowing him to reach supersonic speeds.
Wang Ye took off his shirt and lay on the pure white bed, his mind gradually manipulating his central nervous system.
In the blink of an eye, his heart rate quickly slowed from ten beats per minute to one beat per minute.
The doctor placed the probe on Wang Ye’s chest, his eyes fixed on the screen.
At the instant the screen displayed Wang Ye’s chest structure,
the doctor’s brow furrowed immediately.
The size and internal structure of this heart,
seem to have completely deviated from the normal human form,
This doctor, who has been in the military hospital for years, naturally has seen the hearts of over a thousand people.
Most people’s heart structures are quite similar.
After all, the function of human hearts is not that different.
The typical human heart is about the size of a fist and weighs about half a kilo, located above the diaphragm.
However, Wang Ye’s heart was as large as five fists,
almost occupying the entire chest cavity.
The doctor had to continually move the probe to barely see the entire heart structure.
In theory, a person with such athletic power should have a slightly larger heart, that shouldn’t be surprising.
But Wang Ye’s heart is five times larger than a normal person’s, such a massive heart, how do the lungs have space to survive?
It’s important to note that the chest cavity doesn’t just contain a heart, there are also a pair of lungs on either side.
And the lungs are usually much larger than the heart.
Now, Wang Ye’s heart size seems to occupy the entire chest cavity.
Leaving no space for the lungs at all...
Could it be that Wang Ye no longer has lungs?
The doctor’s pupils slightly contracted.
This guy, is he really still human?
The doctor calmed himself down and continued examining other parts of Wang Ye’s heart,
but he suddenly realized, in all this time examining Wang Ye’s heart.
He hadn’t witnessed even a single heartbeat,
The heart remained still, as if it were merely a specimen.
The doctor’s heart skipped a beat,
Holy shit, could this guy possibly have no heartbeat?
If so, he wouldn’t be a biological being but a ghost!
