Once Lann, Maria, and Henrik went their separate ways, it didn't actually take much time.
They just made a quick stop at the research center.
Because both Maria and Lann were well aware that hope no longer existed.
The Gray Blood disease was originally a thorny plague, which Maria once considered the 'way of salvation' at the Healing Church's research hall. Yet, under Lann's revelation, its true nature was exposed.
The research hall wasn't focused on overcoming the plague, but rather hoped to gain more profound knowledge through its peculiar pathology.
They were eager to see patients become more deeply infected and further mutated, thereby presenting more complex disease symptoms as research references.
Under this research intent, no real progress was made in treating the Gray Blood disease.
Maria insisted on taking one last look… she was just trying to let herself lose hope.
Because this process wouldn't take too much time, Lann accompanied her.
