Chapter 279 - Chapter 278: Overslept

After all, you can't expect anything extra to flow out of a mass of water with nothing else in it.

It was just that Dahlia's prank looked a bit disgusting.

Meanwhile, Rosmontis blinked her eyes in confusion, completely unable to understand what her friends were talking about.

"Are you taking this back?" Nian pointed to the Heart of Pure Water she had placed on the table.

"Want a bite? Actually, I'm quite curious about what this thing tastes like... Others can't eat it, but you and I should be fine, right?"

Kanna tilted her head and thought for a moment. Since it had already been taken out and couldn't be put back, she might as well taste what it was like.

Nian pointed at Dahlia, "She wouldn't mind?"

Kanna held the Heart of Pure Water out to Dahlia, only to see a stream of water push it back.

"Look! She can't eat this anyway. Besides, she's not the original Purewater Spirit, so she naturally has no sense of identification..." As Kanna spoke, she sliced her hand, and the Heart of Pure Water split into two.

Kanna offered one half to Nian, "This thing looks all jiggly and chewy. I've wanted to taste it for a long time. Hmm, it really is like eating pudding, but unfortunately, it has no flavor..."

Seeing Kanna smacking her lips, Nian no longer hesitated. She grabbed the other half of the Heart of Pure Water and swallowed it.

"It really has no flavor... Hmm? I feel a slight improvement in my control over water, but this thing is wasted on me. If it were given to the painter or the alcoholic at home, the effect would definitely be much better than if I ate it."

After eating, Nian closed her eyes and felt it. She found that her control over flowing water had increased, but unfortunately, she wasn't interested in this type of Originium Arts, so this enhancement was completely useless to her.

"Let's just consider it for fun. If you want more later, the cost price is one pure originium. As long as the money is in place, you can have as many as you want." Just as Kanna expected, after Nian ate it, the system immediately prompted that there was divinity in her, directly immune to the side effects of the Heart of Pure Water.

"Knock knock..." Just as they were chatting, a knock on the door suddenly sounded. They saw Dahlia jump into the air, transforming into a stream of water that floated to the door. After opening it, they saw Silence and Ptilopsis standing outside.

Upon opening the door, Silence saw the group of people in the small room. Except for one unfamiliar-looking young girl, the others were mostly regular visitors here.

Silence first greeted Kanna, then said, "Ifrit, it's time for your check-up."

Ifrit looked disappointed. She had planned to go play on the deck with Kanna and the others, but she was caught by Silence.

"Hey, Ptilopsis, how has Ifrit been recently?" While Silence and Ifrit were talking, Kanna pulled Ptilopsis's hand and asked.

"Beep! Query confirmed for Kanna, authorization granted. With the assistance of Dahlia's special pure water in treatment, Ifrit's blood Originium crystal density has decreased from 0.51 u/L to 0.47 u/L, and the situation is stabilizing. In the past three months, there has been no deterioration or sudden increase, indicating that the condition is gradually coming under control."

Upon hearing Kanna's question, Ptilopsis answered in a meticulous manner.

"Not bad!" Kanna nodded after hearing this and gave Ifrit a thumbs-up.

It's important to know that oripathy has always only been controllable, never curable. But even with control, it can easily spiral out of control due to external or internal influences. Especially for a severely ill patient like Ifrit, the blood Originium crystal density not only effectively decreased within three months but also showed no rebound, which is considered a major breakthrough in Rhodes Island's treatment of oripathy.

If it can continue to stabilize and more information can be obtained from Ifrit, perhaps Rhodes Island will soon find a way to completely suppress the condition of severely ill oripathy patients.

Even though Ifrit's medical treatment is still overseen by Silence and Ptilopsis, Doctors who know the inside story are very concerned about Ifrit's condition, awaiting Silence's final results and medical report.

"According to Ifrit's current situation, if her condition stabilizes, she might even be able to see the outside world!" Kanna was very happy about Ifrit's current situation. Although she could help Ifrit survive through "special" methods, if Silence and Rhodes Island could truly find a way to completely suppress or cure oripathy, that would actually be the best thing for all of Terra.

After all, if oripathy could be treated, even if the current treatment would be expensive, with the development of medical technology, one day the treatment drugs would become cheaper and cheaper. At that time, there would be no distinction between Infected and non-Infected, and thus no conflict.

It is important to know that over fifty percent of the conflicts on the land of Terra come from between the Infected and non-Infected. Solving this problem, while not bringing world peace, could lead to fewer conflicts and deaths.

"Then we'll be going now. See you tomorrow!" Standing up, Ifrit bid farewell to the others, then, taking Dahlia, followed Silence out of the small room.

"May I ask who that new friend is?" After leaving, Silence casually asked Ifrit, who was still excited from Kanna's praise.

"That person? I think her name is Nian! Yes! That's the name. When I met her before, Kanna was with her for a meal. I heard Kanna say that the Doctor asked her to form a new team, and this Nian is a member of her team."

After hearing Ifrit's words, Silence pushed up her glasses and gestured to Ptilopsis. Ptilopsis, through her Originium Arts connection to Rhodes Island's terminal, began to retrieve Nian's information.

"Oh, right, you remember the Heart of Pure Water that saved Dahlia, don't you? Just now, Kanna and Nian each ate half of it!" Thinking of Kanna and Nian eating the Heart of Pure Water just now, Ifrit boasted.

"What!" Hearing Ifrit's words, not only Silence but even Ptilopsis froze for a second, as this intelligence was too alarming.

Silence looked around and, finding no one else, breathed a sigh of relief. "Don't reveal this matter. Remember, don't tell anyone."

Seeing Silence's serious expression, Ifrit finally understood how important Kanna and Nian's seemingly casual actions had been.

"Ptilopsis, take Ifrit for a physical examination. I'm going to find Kaltsit." After some thought, Silence decided to ask Kaltsit, mainly to find out who this mysterious girl called "Nian" was and why she had gained Kanna's trust.

One must know that Kanna could be said to be Rhodes Island's strongest trump card currently, the kind of person whose loss Rhodes Island could not afford under any circumstances.
