In the corridor behind the chapel.
People lined up neatly, entering the room one by one.
Loran maintained order on the side, with the lame Little Loli Renee also helping out.
“Come one by one, no fighting or shoving, be quiet!”
“Groups of 20, squeeze in a little, be careful not to cause a stampede.”
Loran prioritized patients from the Slums who were more severely contaminated.
In her vision, 15 people per room was the ideal state.
However, five more people from the Slums could be squeezed in, as they were more obedient.
This was also a big step in cost-saving.
Loran thought it was a great plan, but reality exceeded her expectations.
Actually, twice as many patients from the Slums could be squeezed in.
They were either thin and frail, or simply teenagers who hadn’t grown up yet.
There were even a few child laborers mixed in.
In the end, a full 32 people were squeezed in before reaching what Loran considered the limit.
Afterwards, Loran closed the door and began using a magic tool to spray the stabilizing potion.
This was the accompanying tool gifted by the wealthy Kariel.
It was an adept-grade tool used for atomizing potion materials, similar to a humidifier on Earth.
After activating it, Loran closed the door.
Through the glass window, one could see a pale pink mist permeating the room.
The crowd was a bit panicked, but followed Loran’s instructions and obediently stayed put.
In [Elemental Sight], the magic contamination was slowly being assimilated as expected.
Facts proved that the method of administering medicine in batches was very correct.
This time, she, Loran, wasn’t just winning a little, a medium amount, or a huge amount.
This was concentrated winning!
It was the first step for humanity to overcome magic contamination.
Renee, who was on the side, was also dumbfounded.
Borrowing Loran’s gold-rimmed glasses, she saw the situation in the room and saw the magic contamination being easily conquered.
Who exactly was this nun who looked so flirtatious?
…
Five days passed.
Renee and her sister had moved to the church.
Loran assigned a room on the first floor to them.
Although the space was not large and the furniture was quite simple.
But compared to the shack they lived in, it was leagues ahead.
This was a proper brick and stone building, with no drafts in winter and no leaks when it rained.
The honest Jenny was moved to tears, and on the spot, she contributed another 80 faith points.
The small New Bud Street church became completely famous.
Every day, more and more patients came, begging for Loran’s treatment.
Even due to the high demand, long queues began to form in front of the church, and some people even set up tents on the spot.
The scene was lively, but actually quite terrifying.
Everywhere there were commoners with rotting skin, wailing.
If the Old Port District guard hadn’t noticed something wrong and sent a team to maintain order, the church would definitely have been stormed.
…
In the church, Loran and the two sisters, Renee and Jenny, were also extremely busy.
The matter of selling the stabilizing potion had already been handed over to the guards to help with.
At this time, Renee and Jenny were responsible for the operation of the potion spraying room.
After discovering that Renee could use a tiny amount of magic power, Loran gave her the gold-rimmed glasses.
Although when used by the lame Little Loli it could only last a few seconds each time, it was enough to check for magic contamination.
And Loran was in the studio on the second floor, working non-stop to refine the [adept-grade stabilizer].
But she was also about to reach her limit.
To be precise, the golden milk source at 47 degrees north latitude couldn’t take it anymore.
She was now being squeezed so much every day she was about to burst into flames.
However, the number of affected patients was increasing, with no signs of decreasing at all.
Even though the [Loran-brand Cow] skill granted by the system allowed her scale and capacity to continuously increase.
But there was a limit to this.
Moreover, the over-extraction of mineral resources also triggered the side effects of the [Mark of Desire], which was simply like dry wood meeting a raging fire, with the fire of desire burning hotter and hotter.
Although the faith points were endless, allowing her to successfully light up [Elementary Magic Power] and improve her physical fitness significantly.
But she really couldn’t take it anymore.
…
Pink Harbor, street corner cafe.
A succubus wearing a provocative maid outfit walked to the counter and bowed respectfully to Kariel.
“My Lady, news from the New Sprout Street Church has arrived.”
Kariel, who had been busy with official business for three days, stopped her work and immediately became interested.
“What happened?
It seems quite lively there recently.”
The maid succubus nodded.
“Yes, the nun Loran Kahn from the New Sprout Church has developed a potion that can treat magic contamination.”
“The people we sent have confirmed that the medicine is effective.”
“At this moment, a large number of infected commoners are gathered near the church, and the Old Port District magistrate had no choice but to send the guard to assist in maintaining order.” The source of this chapter is novelping.com.
Kariel thought she had misheard and asked the maid succubus to repeat it.
“Huh?!
Little Loran actually came up with a solution?”
“Oh no!
She’s really brought trouble upon herself now.”
…
Northern Legion Fortress, the Fifth Prince’s base.
At this moment, he was competing with the Third Princess for the support of the Northern Legion.
A Dark Elf wearing a cloak and looking sneaky walked into the room and respectfully handed a report to the Fifth Prince.
“Your Highness, the reason for the Third Princess’s sudden return has been found out.”
Panno Lionheart did not look at the report, but asked directly:
“Tell me, what is the reason that could make my restless sister leave the fortress.”
“Yes, Your Highness!”
“According to intelligence from the Royal Capital, the magic furnace from the Royal Faction’s Wayne Company has been exposed to have a risk of magic contamination.”
“The Third Princess is likely planning to go back and stabilize the situation before it spreads, and revise the design plan.”
The Fifth Prince laughed out loud immediately.
“Heaven is truly helping me.
Once my sister leaves, does that bunch of idiots she left behind really think they can compete with me for the support of the Northern Legion?”
“However, I am very curious, who exactly dares to directly oppose the Royal Faction?”
The Dark Elf immediately showed a subtle expression.
“Your Highness, it is your person who is opposing the Royal Faction.”
“Huh?”
The Fifth Prince’s expression was a bit confused; he didn’t remember ever doing such a thing.
The Dark Elf reminded him:
“It is your slave nun, Loran Kahn.”
“She developed a [stabilizing potion] targeting magic contamination, which caused the news to spread among the commoners.”
“According to the latest news today, her church has been surrounded by about two thousand patients, and this number is still increasing.”
The Fifth Prince opened his mouth wide.
“Are you saying that the ordinary Candidate Saintess, who at most just looks good, developed a medicine to treat magic contamination?”
The Dark Elf nodded silently.
“You must be joking, right?”
The Dark Elf shook his head and gestured for the Fifth Prince to check the report in his hand.
Ten minutes later, the Fifth Prince stood up abruptly and ordered.
“Someone, quickly prepare the magic carriage, I must rush back to the Royal Capital immediately.”
“I must get there before my stupid sister and bring Loran Kahn under my control!”
