The goddesses attempted to gain my salvation.

Therefore, keeping students here will only add to the pressure on the instructors.

Although Maggie and Claire were adamant, Ryan's tone was even more unquestionable.

The journey has come to an end.

They must leave.

This is out of concern for their safety.

Despite their reluctance, the two eventually boarded the carriage.

After the last carriage left the camp, Ryan gathered all the mentors together.

Then, he recounted to everyone the results of his joint investigation with Rose, which was Dick's travel report.

Everyone was shocked after hearing this.

It's incredible that someone could combine the blue flower with the sandworm.

What kind of person came up with such a bold and crazy idea?

“Victor has already returned to the academy in the carriage. The rest of the investigation will be handled by the rest of us.”

The people currently in charge of investigating the Blue Flower are Norma, Miley, Daphne, Tracy, Veranika, and Ryan.

There were six people in total.

They went in pairs, each heading in one of the three directions.

Miley and Daphne, as a team, returned to Vita Town to be in charge of excavating the Blue Flowers and investigating whether they had been scattered there due to species migration.

If so, then outline the entire migration route of the species.

Veranika and Norma are assigned to travel to Anseth's capital city to contact Yorn and investigate whether Yorn and his Rema family were involved in the Blue Flower experiments.

If so, follow the clues to find out the specific experimental details.

Tracy and Ryan remained in Moss, the last group, to investigate the Lance family and their underground network.

Every experiment requires financial support. Since the Blue Flower was discovered within the territory of Anseth City, the first thing to do is to investigate the underground king of Anseth City.

Once the groups were decided, the members of the three groups immediately took action.

Veronica actually wanted to be in a group with Ryan, but Tracy was better at diplomatic negotiations than her.

The combination of Tracy and Ryan is the most suitable to deal with the Lancy family.

Therefore, Veronica could only keep the new positions she had just learned for the time being, and let Ryan check her results after everything was over.

------

That night.

Inside the Lancy family's estate.

Dressed in an elegant gown, Yvette swayed her hips as she slowly entered the manor, a place filled with greenery and symbolizing wealth and power.

She is indeed beautiful enough.

Her long, black hair cascaded down her back, and her fitted, backless dress accentuated her near-perfect figure.

Black stockings, high heels, and delicate features make her perfectly suited for any social occasion.

If she attends a cocktail party, there will definitely be many noble young men vying to ask her to dance.

Today, both Ghosn and Bane are still in the Lancy family.

Their younger brother is still underground in the manor, honing his magical powers.

Upon seeing Yvette, Bane immediately felt as if he were being watched by a venomous snake, and unconsciously sat up straight.

Ghosn, on the other hand, calmly put down his book.

"Are you here to hand in this month's lab report?"

Yvette sat elegantly in a single armchair, leaning back and comfortably crossing her beautiful legs in black stockings.

After a crisp snap of her fingers, a shadowy claw emerged from Yvette's shadow, clutching a report.

After tossing the report on the table, Yvette should have left.

But this time, she didn't leave.

"Why, is there anything else?"

“Mr. Ghosn, I think you should take a look at the report first.”

Ghosn retrieved the report, glanced at it a few times, and his pupils involuntarily contracted.

The first few pages of the lab report were the same as usual, consisting of data reports. Ghosn read them many times, and there were no changes.

But the main event is yet to come.

Students from the magic academy... have actually broken into Yvette's laboratory!

Since Yvette was in the lab at the time, she disposed of those students immediately.

The laboratory was heavily guarded and equipped with numerous defensive spells. Even without Yvette, Ghosn wasn't worried about the secret being leaked.

While dealing with those students, Yvette discovered that the students at the magic academy possessed considerable magical talent. Nutrients extracted from their bodies could significantly enhance the activity of experimental subjects.

Actual measurements show that the improvement is at least tenfold.

If large-scale extraction is possible, it can accelerate the maturation of experimental subjects.

After putting down the report, Ghosn squinted at Yvette.

"I don't like beating around the bush, so just tell me what you think."

Yvette alternately crossed her beautiful legs. One hand propped up her chin, while the other, clad in a black silk glove that reached her wrist, casually played with the hem of her skirt.

"At our current pace, it will take at least a year for this batch of perfect test subjects to fully mature."

"If we capture all the students from those magic academies and extract them into nutrient solution, this time will be shortened to a month, or even half a month."

"That's what I want to say."

Bane, who was standing nearby, slammed his hand on the table and jumped to his feet.

"Yvette! Are you insane?!"

"They actually dared to target students from the magic academy!"

"Don't you know that the academy is backed by the Basmah Church?!"

"Offending the academy is the same as offending the Holy See! If the Holy See's Knights of the Sun reach the border, we'll all die!"

Yvette simply smiled faintly: "Mr. Bane, you really have no self-awareness at all."

“What we are doing now has long deviated from humanity. Even if we don’t take action against those students in the academy, once what we are doing is exposed, the Holy See will not let us off the hook, and the Duchy of Ferrante will not let us off the hook either.”

Bane's eyes widened in anger, his muscles bulged, and his veins stood out.

"Yvette! You conducted the experiment yourself. What does it have to do with the Lancy family?"

Upon hearing this, Yvette laughed incessantly, as if she had heard a joke.

“Mr. Bane, you are really naive.”

"Without the permission and support of the Lancy family, I, a weak woman, could not have done these things."

Bane was so angry his head was spinning, but Yvette showed no fear whatsoever; on the contrary, she was laughing even more heartily than before.

“There is one more thing, Mr. Bane, and that concerns your brother, Dunn.”

Bane immediately fell silent.

He opened his mouth, then suddenly realized something, and his whole body reacted like an enraged lion.

"Yvette!"

"You didn't do anything to my brother, did you?!"

Yvette elegantly twirled her long fingernails, glancing at Bane out of the corner of her eye: "I didn't do anything to him. I just told you the secret technique. But you should know that magic doesn't increase or decrease for no reason."

"The secret method to enhance magic power requires a certain potion as an aid. And your little brother, Mr. Dunn, drinks a lot of it every day~"

"Perhaps you don't know yet, but your brother Ghosn should have known long ago how those potions were made."

Of course, Bane knew that the raw materials for those experiments were living, breathing people!

However, Bane only knew that Yvette used those nutrient solutions to cultivate experimental subjects, but he was unaware that they had other uses.

Although the pale blue potion was delivered to the manor every day, his elder brother Ghosn simply said that it was just a normal nutritional supplement.

"Big brother!"

"How were those potions given to Dunn made?!"

Ghosn bit his lip, his hands clenching involuntarily.

"Yvette, you can go now."

"Big brother! Answer me!!!"

Yvette laughed so hard she almost fell over as she watched Ghosn and Bane confront each other.

"Since Mr. Ghosn is unwilling to tell you, then I will tell you everything!"

"Yvette! Shut up!"

Ignoring Ghosn's warnings, Yvette told Bane the most taboo part of the entire experiment.

What she loved most was tragedy.

Wailing and despair were always necessities in her life.

As Yvette spoke, Bane's body trembled uncontrollably.

The intense emotions of fear and betrayal nearly drove Bane to madness.

The apparent purpose of this experiment is to study how to cultivate the Blue Flower on a large scale, thereby producing magic supplements in large quantities.

Combining it with sandworms is a bold exploration.

However, this was merely a smokescreen to conceal Yvette's true purpose.

What she really wants to do is, through artificial intervention, create and cultivate a group of powerful and obedient people...
