We are from the future ark

Facing the doctor's question, Kal'tsit was speechless for the first time, and finally replied calmly:

"I just want to keep this under control."

"You claim to know everything, but can you really control everything?"

The doctor smiled coldly, and then he didn't want to say anything more. This woman was really unreasonable.

"I hope you will stop consuming other people's trust in you like this. This will only leave you completely isolated and helpless."

"you……"

However, before Kal'tsit could say anything, the Doctor waved his hand and left. Obviously, he was going to talk to Chen Qi.

"... Doctor Kal'tsit." At this time, Amiya also spoke again: "This time, you seem to have gone a little too far."

"…Do you think so too, Amiya?"

If the reactions of the Doctor and Chen Qi were within Kal'tsit's expectations, then Amiya's words at this time were completely beyond Kal'tsit's expectations.

You know, Amiya is a child who grew up under Kal'tsit's nose. Since she was born, Amiya's every move has been under Kal'tsit's care. She grew up deeply influenced by Kal'tsit. It can be said that she is the person who understands Kal'tsit the most.

However, at this time, even she thought that Kal'tsit's behavior was a bit too much.

"No, I'm not lecturing you, Dr. Kelsey."

"I just think... just like everyone has a past that they don't want to talk about, we should respect everyone's past."

Amiya's expression suddenly became a little sad. Seeing Kal'tsit's surprised expression, she slowly said:

"I can sense that Chen Qi... has an unspeakable sadness in his heart. Just like everyone who has suffered a disaster on our continent... or even stronger."

"Dr. Kelsey, although saying this may seem a bit biased, I must say it."

"——Chen Qi, maybe he is even more anxious than you to keep all this under control."

"Why not try to trust him a little more?"

After that, Amiya stopped talking. After bowing slightly to Kal'tsit, she chose to leave the office alone.

However, the moment Amiya left the office, Kal'tsit finally began to move.

"Try to trust him... How could I not trust him..."

Kal'tsit's soft murmurs could be heard in the office. However, there seemed to be a slight tremor in her voice that was not there normally.

"But...carrying so much...is this really what he wants?"

"I just hope... that he can have a little less burden... even just a little bit..."

Her hand unconsciously reached for the coffee cup beside her, and Kal'tsit slowly took a sip of the coffee that had already gone cold, but her expression was slightly stunned.

...Today's coffee...seems a bit salty.

Chapter 103: The future revealed by Chen Qi, the birth of the Flame Demon

Two hours passed quickly. Because Rhodes Island had given notice beforehand, the Rhine Life land vehicle was not blocked when passing through the gantry security check. It was only a simple registration and personnel investigation before entering.

"Is this... Rhodes Island?"

Saria and her group had not walked for long when they saw Rhodes Island, a ship that looked like a small land aircraft carrier, at the outer ring of the dragon gate. They were all slightly stunned. It was obvious that the scale of Rhodes Island was indeed a bit beyond their expectations.

"...I've never been to Rhodes Island before. Although I expected it to be very big, this is definitely beyond my imagination."

"Isn't this a good thing?" Hearing Saria's exclamation, Hemer, who was standing by, adjusted his glasses and said, "The better the current situation of Rhodes Island is, the better it is for us."

"...That's right." Saria nodded, then looked at the figure behind her.

Mel and White-Faced Owl also slowly walked over, and in the White-Faced Owl's arms, there was a sleeping Sarkaz girl.

"Ifrit..."

Saria called out softly, then stretched out her hand and gently stroked the Sarkaz girl's forehead, then said with a slightly unhappy expression:

"I still have a fever. It's gone down a little, but it's still a little hot."

"Let's go in quickly." Hemer was also stunned when he heard this, and said to everyone:

"Ifrit needs a good medical environment now. Let's go to Rhodes Island quickly."

"Ah."

The group nodded, and then quickly stepped into the interior of Rhodes Island.

However, they had not walked for long before they saw four figures walking towards them.

"Welcome, everyone from Rhine Life." The visitors were Kal'tsit and his group. At this time, the Doctor, Amiya and Chen Qi were all beside her. She greeted Saria and Hemer, who were leading the group:

"The two of you should be Saria and Dr. Hemer."

"I guess you are Dr. Kal'tsit." The leading Hemer also recognized the other party's identity. After all, the positions of several people from Rhodes Island had already shown that Kal'tsit was the real leader of Rhodes Island.

Before this, Hemer and the others had also spoken with Kal'tsit through the land vehicle, so they all knew Kal'tsit's identity.

"As much as I'd like to talk to you about the main point, we still have patients."

"I know." Kal'tsit nodded, looked at the girl in the white-faced owl's arms, and after a slight pause, she spoke lightly:

"Take him to the infirmary for immediate diagnosis and treatment."

"White-faced Owl, Mel, I'm counting on you." Hemer turned his head and said to the two girls. Soon, the two girls nodded and followed the medical operators of Rhodes Island to the direction of the infirmary.

"Well, next, we can talk about some important things."

Kal'tsit said this, noticing that Hemer and Saria were looking at the people around Kal'tsit, and then continued:

"These are our top leaders in Rhode Island. They have the right to know this."

"……All right."

Hemer and Saria looked at each other, knowing that at this moment, they had nowhere to go.

Rhodes Island may be the last force they can rely on.

……

"Regarding the Balrog Project, Dr. Hemer, if you really trust Rhodes Island, please tell us everything you know."

In the conference room, Amiya made a cup of coffee for everyone present, but the main content of the conversation was still conducted by Kal'tsit.

"...The Flame Demon Project is the top secret of Rhine Life." However, at this moment, Hemer's expression was a little serious, and he asked Kal'tsit coldly:

"I'm very curious. Rhodes Island is a non-confrontational infected organization and pharmaceutical company. We have never had any contact with people from Rhine Life before. How did you know about the Flame Demon Project?"

"...through an insider." Kal'tsit did not hide anything, and stared straight at Saria, whose expression was a little stiff.

"——Sareya?!"

However, following Kal'tsit's gaze, Hemer looked at Saria in disbelief, whose expression was very stiff and a little gloomy.

"...I'm sorry, Hemer." Saria lowered her head and said calmly, "I did it for Ifrit."

"You don't need to blame her, Dr. Hemer." Kal'tsit also spoke up and said, "For a being like Ifrit, Rhodes Island can provide her with the best treatment environment."

"Could it be that Dr. Hemer thinks that the Balrog Project is really a good thing for this innocent child?"

"..."

Hemer was silent.

In fact, even if Rhine's life had not been burned to ashes, Hemer had thought many times whether what he was doing was correct.

If the final success of the Fire Demon Plan is followed, Ifrit's body will completely devour the Originium, thereby gaining powerful strength while her physique will also isolate the Originium disease.

However, that being said, in reality, all researchers, including Hemer, knew that Ifrit had actually been hovering on the line between life and death.

The degree of her infection was so terrible that she was always on the verge of collapse. If Rhine Life had not had only Ifrit, the only experimental subject who met the requirements, and if they had not tried their best to save her after each experiment, Ifrit would have been killed by Originium disease long ago.

Hemer knew that everything they did was wrong, and she couldn't bear to watch her child, whom she loved as her own, suffer such great pain.

Some people say that an excellent scientific researcher should abandon his compassion and humanity. But unfortunately, Hemer couldn't do that.

"...I agree to reveal the Flame Demon Plan, but I also hope that Rhodes Island will tell me the truth."

Finally, Hemer compromised. After all, they couldn't go back to Columbia. Now, only Rhodes Island could accept them, support their work, and provide medical and technological conditions comparable to those of Rhine Life.

But, Hemer still has to figure out one thing.

"Doctor Kal'tsit, I hope you can tell me the truth about the next question I'm going to ask. If Rhodes Island hides the truth from us, I will never hand Ifrit over to you, even if it means our own death."

"Rhodes Island has always been open and honest." Kal'tsit said without hesitation: "What do you want to ask? Please ask."

"…Rhine Life has turned into a sea of ​​fire. I think you, as the leader of Rhodes Island, should have heard about this."

"I still have the habit of watching the news." Kal'tsit replied calmly: "To be honest, I am also surprised. Rhine Life is also a powerful organization, and it has the support of Columbia behind it. It turned into a sea of ​​fire overnight."

"Really?" However, Hemer smiled coldly when he heard this. He was already a little disappointed with Rhodes Island's behavior.

That person clearly had the symbol of Rhodes Island on her body, but as a leader, she actually said such a thing? Was she really unaware, or was she deliberately provoking?

If Hemer was unsure at the beginning, now he is 90% sure that the person who can release fire is definitely Rhodes Island's secret weapon!

Saria revealed the Fire Demon Project to Rhodes Island. In order to gain the inside information of the Fire Demon Project, Rhodes Island sent out their secret weapons to directly destroy the defenseless Rhine Life. However, in order to gain their loyalty, they deliberately did not kill them and Ifrit, in order to make them helpless and have to come to Rhodes Island for refuge.

If this is the case, then Hemer's guess is that Rhodes Island's plan is to take over Rhine Life and restart the Flame Demon Plan!

They want the Fire Demon to be in the hands of Rhodes Island!

If that's the case──We must not hand Ifrit over to them!

The storm in his mind made Hemer think that he had figured everything out. After all, apart from Rhodes Island, which knew the inside story, no one had the reason or the strength to raid a behemoth like Rhine Life.

There is no other possibility except Rhode Island!

"Then we have nothing to talk about."

Hemer chose to turn hostile directly. However, Hemer's sudden change of attitude made Kal'tsit slightly stunned.

What's going on here?

"Wait, Dr. Hemer, I don't understand what you mean."

"Do you want me to remove the last fig leaf of Rhodes Island, Dr. Kal'tsit?"

Finally, Hemer couldn't hold his temper anymore and asked Kal'tsit angrily:

"I saw it then! The one who released the flames that set all the lives of the Rhine on fire! On her shoulder! There was your Rhodes Island emblem!"

"You guys in Rhodes Island are really generous! For Ifrit, you can even destroy Rhine Life in one fell swoop!"

"…The symbol of Rhodes Island?"

At this point, Kal'tsit was dumbfounded. She had never sent anyone to Colombia before?

Wait... Release the flame, the symbol of Rhodes Island, and the people of Rhodes Island who disappeared during that time...

"——Chen Qi?!" Kal'tsit suddenly thought of something and turned her head sharply to look at Chen Qi.

“…I had someone do it.”

However, at this moment, Chen Qi also stood up and admitted it very frankly.

"I sent an operator to Rhine Life in Columbia without Dr. Kal'tsit's approval - and allowed her to destroy it."

"It's you (Chen Qi)?!" X4

However, when Chen Qi said this, both sides were shocked. The Doctor and Amiya were both surprised, while Hemer and Saria were angry.

"What is your purpose?!"

Saria came forward and grabbed Chen Qi by the collar. Chen Qi felt a huge force pulling him up, facing Saria's angry face.

"Because of you! All of our medical reports and documents at Rhine Life were destroyed! Do you know how important those things are?!"

Those reports...are things that could save Ifrit's life in the future! Thinking of this, Saria felt her heart bleeding.

However, under Saria's gaze, Chen Qi's smile turned contemptuous.

"Medical report? Is this the potion you said could save Ifrit in a time of crisis?"

"——Excuse me for being blunt, but this potion of yours will only completely destroy her."

"You!" Upon hearing this, Saria couldn't help but get furious. Even a calm person like her couldn't control her temper.
