Before they knew it, it was time for Alex to report to the Medical Experimental Center.
He certainly wouldn’t be foolish enough to walk right into a trap.
As soon as it was light, I went out and went straight to the toy store where I had met Tartaglia and Teucer the day before.
The sky was overcast, as if brewing a rain, yet it hesitated to fall.
This kind of oppressive, lingering feeling of impending rain is most irritating.
After waiting for more than an hour, Teucer’s small figure appeared in sight, bouncing around.
Alex smiled slightly, revealing a friendly and warm smile, and stepped forward, ” Teucer, hello, I’m Pantalone, Liyue’s colleague from your brother Tartaglia.” Teucer tilted her head up, her eyes full of wariness: “What do you want with me?” “We recently produced a batch of one-eyed baby samples,” Alex said with a gentle smile, “and would like to invite you to experience them in advance and make modifications based on your feedback.” “No!” Teucer refused without hesitation, her little brows furrowed tightly.
“You may seem like a good person… but you might be a bad guy who tricks children.” Alex’s expression remained unchanged as he calmly took out a seal from his pocket and held it flat in his palm: “You should recognize this, right?” Teucer looked closely and his eyes widened immediately: “This…this is Grandpa Pulcinella’s seal!” Pulcinella has always taken special care of their family, and they have a very good relationship with them.
Alex carefully put the stamp away.
” Teucer, now you should believe me!” Teucer still hesitated, “But…” “In that case,” Alex shrugged helplessly, “never mind then!
I’ll invite you again next time.” After saying that, he turned and left.
He had only taken a few steps when Teucer’s urgent voice came from behind: “Wait, I’ll go with you!
If things go wrong, I’ll run away!” Alex paused, slowly turned around, and his smile deepened: “Okay.” ……..
The sky was overcast, rain was imminent, and there were few pedestrians on the streets.
Tartaglia glanced up at the leaden sky with slight annoyance, then quickened her pace toward the Zapolyarny Palace.
The Harbinger meeting is about to begin, and I can’t be late.
As he approached the palace gate, a young Fatui stopped him and whispered something to him.
Tartaglia’s expression changed drastically, and her eyes instantly turned bloodshot.
Without the slightest hesitation, he turned and sprinted towards the Medical Experimental Center.
Meanwhile, in the solemn conference room of Zapolyarny Palace, the Harbinger meeting had already begun.
No one noticed his absence.
Pierro, seated at the head of the conference table, slowly scanned the Harbingers present, finally fixing his gaze on Arlecchino.
” Arlecchino,” he said coldly, “shouldn’t you be the first to comment on this matter?” Arlecchino, upon hearing this, remained calm and said, “My opinion is to abolish human experimentation and execute all those responsible.” Before she finished speaking, she raised her eyes and stared directly at Dottore across from her, her eyes filled with undisguised murderous intent.
Dottore’s lips curled into a mocking sneer.
” Arlecchino, I need you to remind me of one thing—” Human experimentation exists because it grants Fatui soldiers immense power.
Arlecchino naturally understood this.
This is why she has always felt helpless about it.
But now, the situation is different.
She responded calmly: “If this experiment is continued to be tolerated, the plan to seize God’s authority will be impossible to carry out.” “I don’t think it will be much of a hindrance,” Dottore retorted casually.
“Oh?” Arlecchino chuckled.
“Then why don’t you go and seize Gnosis yourself?” Dottore’s smile remained unchanged.
“I can offer advice, as long as there are people to carry it out.” Upon hearing this, Pierro turned his gaze to Rosalyne, who was sitting at the very back: ” Rosalyne, then you will cooperate with the Doctor.” “I refuse.” Rosalyne said firmly, her tone leaving no room for negotiation.
“I don’t want to wake up one day and find myself as his experimental subject.” Pierro frowned slightly upon hearing this.
Of all the Harbingers, only Rosalyne was truly loyal to Tsaritsa.
In the past, she would never refuse any task assigned to her, no matter how difficult.
But this time, her refusal was so firm, even carrying a hint of…anger?
He had no time to delve into the reasons, his gaze sweeping over the other Harbingers.
After looking around, they ultimately gave up the idea of choosing someone else.
There is only one choice left: Should we preserve human trials, or ensure the smooth progress of the Gnosis project?
The answer is actually not difficult.
After a moment’s thought, he made up his mind.
Just then, Dottore suddenly spoke up: ” Lord Jester, what I showed you before was only the mature result.
I actually have another immature result.” “Speak.” Pierro’s gaze sharpened slightly.
Dottore tilted his head slightly, a hint of smugness flashing in his eyes, “Injecting the recently developed ‘ God reagent’ can grant a superhuman a temporary power beyond the ordinary.” As soon as he finished speaking, the expressions of everyone present changed slightly.
Above the extraordinary is God.
Snezhnaya has many extraordinary individuals.
If they were all injected with ” God’s reagent” during the war against the Heavenly Principles, it would be enough to change the entire course of the battle.
In an instant, Pierro’s mind tipped in favor of human experimentation.
As for the plan to seize the authority of the gods, it’s just that the difficulty has increased exponentially, but it’s not hopeless to complete.
Arlecchino immediately sensed the change in the situation and quickly spoke up: ” Lord Jester, this reagent is not yet mature and carries extremely high risks.” “I don’t deny that,” Dottore said grimly, “but given enough material, it will mature eventually.” He paused, then turned his gaze to Arlecchino, a hint of almost mocking malice in his eyes: “I’ve already selected a very good subject.
You’re welcome to come and see for yourself when the experiment takes place.” Arlecchino unconsciously clenched his fist.
” Dottore,” she said, her voice icy as she suppressed her anger, “by the time your Makoto technology is fully developed, Snezhnaya will probably have already been crushed into ruins by Celestia.” Upon hearing this, Pierro’s gaze fell upon Dottore again, his tone calm yet unyielding: “Can you guarantee success?” “Of course,” Dottore answered without hesitation.
For him, any guarantee was acceptable, as long as it allowed the experiment to continue.
After careful consideration, Pierro decided to support Dottore’s human trials.
“If that’s the case, then—.” The moment he announced his final decision, Columbina, who had been sitting silently, suddenly spoke…
