Enlightenment runes in American manga

Chapter 30 Potion
This is already three or four days, and Ophelia has come to the "hive" for the first time.

Along the way, her heart was full of entanglements.

The factional struggle in the base reached its climax on the eve of the return of Chief Schmidt.

As a free person caught between the two parties, the pressure I feel is more obvious.

Lieutenant Colonel Hans kept hinting to himself that as long as she was willing to rely on Baron Sterak's line, then the other party would help her and grasp the defense forces in the base faster.

This is indeed a very tempting proposal. She has not been a deputy security director for a long time, and her "adoptive mother" died suddenly a few years ago, so she has no backer now.

It is not easy to secure the position of the base security director in a short period of time.

After all, Lieutenant Colonel Hans and Raphael didn't have the courage and ability to fight against Schmidt, but it was more than enough to secretly encourage the guards below to cause trouble for themselves.

But in the face of the conditions given by the "Hive" faction, during his meeting with Whitehall this morning, he still chose without hesitation to swear allegiance to Chief Schmidt through the air.

Without him, because Ophelia's understanding of Schmidt may be clearer than these high-level officials in the base.

In Dr. Erskine's laboratory, as a former test subject, she had seen Schmidt's undisguised image in the queue when he got along with his confidants.

It was a headstrong tyrant full of desire for power and control.

This image reflected in the deepest part of Ophelia's mind constantly reminded her that in everyone's previous impression, Schmidt was crazy but still knew how to compromise and give way, and the way he left room was just a disguise made under his restraint .

Now Schmidt returned to the base with the power of a series of victories, but the only Baron Strucker who could compete with him could not be present.

Ophelia is sure that Schmidt, who no one can hold back, will reveal his true face, and all personnel rights will be firmly grasped by him.

So Lieutenant Colonel Hans took the blame and resigned, and it seemed logical for him to take the position as the deputy director of security.

But without Schmidt's approval, it would be the best result to parachute an immediate boss and block his chances of promotion.

There is a high probability that he can't even keep the current position of deputy director, and then he will be sent to an inexplicable place.

Only through Daniel Whitehall, whom Schmidt trusted, expressed his willingness to be the loyal subordinate of the other party, can he ensure that the position of security chief will fall on himself.

Slightly weigh the consequences of refusing a certain party's solicitation. On the one hand, after becoming a security director, you will encounter some troubles in the short term.

On the one hand, it directly makes you lose the opportunity to be a security director.

Ophelia believed that she did not answer this multiple-choice question incorrectly.

The only thing that makes her feel entangled is the man she is about to meet.

The other party's firm commitment to heal his own scars, the confident look when showing scientific research results, and the emotional resonance of those who are also born with defects.

All these things touched Ophelia's heart that she thought was as hard as iron, and she had a slightly strange emotion towards Curen.

But at this time, she stopped outside the laboratory door, using her reason to erase these fantasies that shouldn't exist.

Commitment is just an illusory hope, and resonance is a manifestation of inner weakness. Only power is the good medicine that can heal and protect oneself.

Pushing open the door firmly, she deliberately showed a detached expression and an extremely cold demeanor.

However, in less than a minute, these disguises disappeared without a trace under Curran's bright smile and excited words.

"Ophelia, you are here. Both of us are very lucky! In three days, I made the first human body strengthening potion. Of course, the most important thing is my genius intelligence."

As he said that, Curen handed Ophelia a tube of warm red reagent.

Ophelia looked at the potion in her hand, an expression of disbelief appeared on her face.

To be honest, at the first moment, she really thought it was Ke Lun. In order to help the "Hive" faction win over herself, she randomly found a potion as a research result to deceive her.

But then, Ophelia quickly denied this speculation.

After all, whether the potion is useful or not, you will know after you try it. Once you find out that you have been deceived, you will only become completely hostile to the opposing faction.

So this potion is really useful, or at least it is useful in Curran's opinion.

Ophelia's breathing became rapid in an instant, and the scar on her right face had brought infinite pain to herself since she was conscious.

Healing scars has long been an obsession in her heart. In order to eliminate it, Ophelia is willing to sign up to participate in the "Super Soldier Serum" experiment that is close to death.

In order to eliminate it, Ophelia is also willing to take Curran's potion as a try.

She asked Ke Lun without hesitation how to use the potion, and when she heard that she simply drank it, a suspicious look appeared on her face again.

Ophelia herself had also participated in human body enhancement experiments. Although she had inhaled a large amount of anesthetic at that time, she was unconscious.

But all kinds of thick and long infusion tubes, huge life support devices, and very dangerous radiation equipment used to induce mutations still left a big shadow on her.

As a result, now, Ke Lun told him to heal his scars, and he only needs to drink the product with better effect. No matter how you look at it, it makes Ophelia feel unreliable?

But regarding this point, Ke Lun has long been prepared, and even if the other party doesn't ask, he will explain it, because this can be regarded as his setting for throwing the magic life changing potion.

"Ophelia, I know you will feel that this potion is very different from what you imagined. Because it was originally a composition potion that I made considering your situation."

"As long as this kind of medicine is used to strengthen the short-term healing ability of the human body, it can quickly recover from injuries after taking it. It is a complete body strengthening mixture with another composition that induces mutations."

"The death rate in human experiments remains high because they receive enhancement that will cause organ failure, gene collapse and other conditions. By strengthening the self-healing ability, this risk will be greatly reduced."

"And considering that you have already strengthened it once, using other strengthening methods may have adverse consequences. It is obviously a better choice to take a medicine with only partial functions."

"Tell me, is this a genius idea that only I can have!"

After listening to Curen's explanation, Ophelia believed most of it in her heart, and it seemed to be very reasonable. Before, Dr. Erskine only paid attention to the mutation effects of serum and various rays, and never seemed to consider protecting the experimental products. life.

Compared with the talented young man in front of him, it really doesn't live up to his name!

If Curran knew Ophelia's inner thoughts, he would only chuckle in his heart.

Dr. Erskine may not have thought about it, and the preparation of various life support devices and emergency medicines is proof.

But to research something that has the same effect as Curen's life-altering magic potion, I'm afraid it's not much more difficult than the "super soldier serum".

Seeing Ophelia lift up her long hair covering her right face, ready to remove the old scar, Curen secretly took a deep breath.
