Finally, Ciel thought for a moment, then turned her gaze to Adele and asked, “Adele, do you have any ideas?”
Ciel didn’t have much hope when asking Adele. She just asked Adele casually because she needed time to think.
After all, she was also somewhat the “instigator” of this matter.
Hearing that she was finally called out by name, Adele’s already conflicted expression became even more so. She hesitated for a moment, then said weakly, “I’ll listen to you, Ciel…”
It seemed Adele herself was already afraid and didn’t dare to offer any other suggestions.
Ciel saw that Adele had something she wanted to say in her heart. She shook her head and said, “It’s alright. Just say whatever you’re thinking. Anyway, I might not agree.”
Ciel’s words were very direct, but such direct words actually gave Adele a little confidence to speak her mind.
She slightly hunched her shoulders, looked up at Ciel, and pointed to the potion bottle, saying, “I want to… continue researching it myself…”
At this moment, not only Ciel, but also Avena, who was drinking tea, and Amy, who was looking at Ciel, all turned their gaze to Adele.
Ah… Did I bring clothes with me?
I… I don’t think I have money to buy clothes either…
Adele’s thoughts were instantly overwhelmed by the lack of clothes, while Ciel was contemplating the possibility of Adele’s idea.
Currently, this flower couldn’t solve any problems.
Because it wasn’t necessarily effective against “Rotting Disease,” and there was only one sample. Once it was used up, there would be absolutely no second one.
It was just a material that had the possibility of curing “Rotting Disease.”
But if she could actually develop a potion that cured “Rotting Disease”…
The impact this item could have would be incomparable to a flower that could only be immune to “Rotting Disease.”
Frankly speaking, whoever held this item could change the political landscape of the entire Ansu City and the religious landscape of the entire Ansu Kingdom.
This was a nuclear-level item. Whoever could solve the North Ansu Great Famine would almost be equivalent to holding the hearts of millions of people in North Ansu.
Similarly, this could also save at least a million lives.
But… could Adele do it?
Ciel took a deep breath and looked at Avena. She found that Avena was also looking at her.
Avena’s eyes briefly glanced towards Adele, then she gently shook her head.
‘Too dangerous. Adele can’t handle it.’
Ciel understood what Avena was trying to express.
Handle it well, and it was a fortune overflowing. Handle it poorly, and it was an insurmountable crisis.
However, if Adele actually developed the potion and became the focus of attention, she would actually be safer.
Major churches would desperately try to win her over, especially the Church of the Savior Goddess and the Redemption Society… Even the royal family would extend an olive branch to her.
This would actually make it impossible for the Society of Merriment to act… Coupled with the Society of Merriment’s characteristic of not seeking revenge, this matter might actually pass just like that…
The premise is, Adele can actually develop an antidote.
Ciel stood up and slowly reached out, picked up the potion, and hung it at her waist.
Seeing Ciel’s action, Avena withdrew her gaze and took a sip of black tea. Adele’s expression also turned disappointed. She lowered her head like a child who had done something wrong.
“Alright. You first rent a house, set up the laboratory. After I confirm this method is safe, I will give you the potion.”
Hearing this, the other three immediately looked at Ciel with expressions of shock, seeming a little confused about her intention.
She didn’t directly refuse?
Does she want to save millions of people in North Ansu?
No, Ciel was not such a noble and righteous person…
Just to satisfy Adele’s idea?
No, the better her personal relationships were, the more Ciel would oppose others doing dangerous things.
Even after leaving Ciel’s room, Adele felt her head was buzzing. She was a little confused, not understanding why Ciel had agreed.
Amy’s face also showed worry, but she also felt a faint excitement in her heart… This was her first time being involved in the transcendent world, and it was involved in such a huge, even epic event. This feeling made her excited.
They all returned to their respective rooms to rest, while Avena remained in Ciel’s room, looking at Ciel with a worried face and asking, “Ciel, what’s going on? This is too dangerous…”
“You said Ashford would attract others’ attention. We are just in a ‘competition’ with the Redemption Society to develop an antidote.”
Ciel shook her head and said, “You also know that research itself is not dangerous.”
And the possibility of successful development.
Avena didn’t say this sentence.
Yes, even though it was outrageous, Adele might actually succeed in developing an antidote.
When that happens, what should they do? And how can they protect themselves while holding such a powerful “weapon”?
There was no organization that could be fully trusted. Whether it was the Redemption Society, the Church of the Savior Goddess, the royal family, or even other orthodox churches, they all had their own interests intertwined. It was impossible for them to wholeheartedly protect them, who had created the potion.
The only way Avena could think of was to return to her family, give the potion to her family, and exchange it for power and protection…
But this would put her back under the control of her family…
“Don’t worry, Avena.”
Ciel stepped forward and slowly wrapped her arms around Avena’s head, pressing her against her stomach. She gently rubbed the back of her head and gently comforted her, “To completely free you from your family, we need power… a powerful, equivalent power…”
“The organization will evaluate whether this operation is feasible. If not, I will cancel it.”
Ciel quietly comforted Avena. A thought was slowly rising in her heart.
Who said this potion could only be handed over to the Church of the Savior Goddess, the Redemption Society, and the royal family?
Could it not be that the Divine Advent Church received a divine oracle from the Mother Goddess and obtained this precious antidote? With this explosive news, no one would turn their attention to them.
They could even use this matter to unite religious groups… Anyway, Ciel had done this in a simulation before.
What she needed to think about now was how to utilize all this, while ensuring safety, to achieve the maximum possible gain.
As for whether all of this was feasible, Ciel would first need to go through a simulation to find out…
Now, Ciel felt Avena was right.
Only by holding absolute power and authority could she guarantee her own safety.
