Miss White Wolf's Terra Travel Journal

"Don't be so modest, Ifrit." White Wolf couldn't help laughing.

"No, it's just like that."

"It depends on the master's decision. You don't have the final say." White Wolf spoke more firmly this time. She stared at Ifrit's face and wanted to say something praising as a final compliment, but the other person's red face made her unable to hold back, and the serious atmosphere that she had cultivated with great difficulty was also dispersed.

She simply held the little girl's hands and said with a gentle smile, "Ifrit, thank you."

"No, you're welcome." Ifrit stared at the white wolf in a daze for a while, then answered with her head down. She suddenly remembered a lot of things, not only about Farina, but also about Hemer and Saria. Her eyes turned red.

Although this was her first time, Ifrit naturally learned to hide certain emotions. Of course, she was still childish and immature, but she had an unprecedented realization: after hearing that "thank you", she was no longer the same as before.

After breakfast, Ifrit and Xiaoke went to Rhodes Island Academy at Hemer's request, and White Wolf followed Hemer directly to the medical department's laboratory.

The medical research area of ​​Rhodes Island is actually very large, including the Originium research area, the clinical sample research area, the drug research laboratory, etc. The instrument room that White Wolf went to for the test last time was just the tip of the iceberg of the medical department.

Although the destination this time was still the testing room, it did not prevent her from taking a good look at the research area. What she did not expect was that she happened to run into an old acquaintance, the researcher Di Ling whom she had met in Columbia. It was this researcher who had compiled Angelina's employment contract.

She waved to greet the other party, but the Earth Spirit Researcher was so busy holding the documents, reading as he walked, that he didn't notice the white wolf not far away.

White Wolf had to withdraw his hand awkwardly. Hemer noticed this little thing and helped explain: "Don't mind, she has always been like this. She and Eyjafjalla's geological research group are basically the busiest here. They are responsible for the work of the Messenger of the Scourge, and also conduct various geological and Originium analyses, and connect the relevant data with other research departments. With these data, we can better understand the organizational structure of Originium, and the research on mineral disease drugs will have a clearer direction. Speaking of which, inhibitor engineering is an interdisciplinary project."

It’s really not easy. Bailang thought of the inhibitors that Kal’tsit asked him to take every day. Behind this small reagent, there were countless people working day and night.

"By the way, what type of inhibitor am I using now?"

"Type III Inhibitor, two months ago, the research team improved and upgraded it based on Eyjafjalla's new discovery in Originium."

Volume III: Chapter 13 Consultation

"Is she Eyjafjalla?" White Wolf suddenly asked.

Hemer looked in the direction of the voice and saw Di Ling accompanied by a petite Caprini with a hearing aid. The two of them hurriedly carried the sealed box and walked out of the door of the drug research laboratory.

"Yes." She nodded. "They should be going to the upper level to check new mineral specimens. Do you want me to introduce them to you?"

White Wolf shook his head and continued to watch Eyjafjalla's back gradually disappearing into the distance. He said to Hemer, "No, it's a blessing for Rhodes Island to have such a researcher. I won't bother her."

Next, White Wolf followed Hemer across almost the entire research area. The various instruments and equipment she saw along the way not only broadened her horizons, but also made her truly understand some of the things Frank had said.

Rhodes Island, which shoulders such a huge research task, needs materials in absolutely astronomical numbers. Correspondingly, the Originium ore processing plant, precious metal refinery, and a small amount of outflow inhibitors in Rhodes Island are the economic lifeline of this organization.

But these are obviously not enough. The lucrative Originium raw materials have always been in short supply and cannot constitute a stable source of income. The simple precious metal business is difficult to fill the gap in materials. So, is this why Rhodes Island sends operators to various places to accept commissioned business?

This was probably the only reason. No wonder she sometimes felt that Rhodes Island was generous, and sometimes she noticed the organization's frugality and cunningness in the details.

She has now seen the methods Rhodes Island uses to encourage employees to consume, such as buying furniture to build their own dormitories and deliberately selling expensive meals in the restaurant... Of course, these methods of self-production and self-sales to exaggerate domestic demand should not be Kal'tsit's idea, and Amiya probably can't do it either. There must be an operator hidden behind the scenes in Rhodes Island.

If the cooperation with Reunion is successful, there will soon be a steady supply of Originium ore entering the processing plant, and Rhodes Island's economic difficulties will be alleviated. The operator behind the scenes (although no one knows who it is yet) will definitely be grateful to White Wolf.

From the perspective of the integration movement, she also urgently hopes that the cooperation can be successful, and the important thing is to quickly replace those useless stones in the warehouse with supplies.

What a best of both worlds collaboration! She fantasized about a bright future and walked towards the testing room without stopping.

"Good morning, Fafalin and Dr. Hemer." Huafalin's greeting brought Bailang back to reality. She followed up with the greetings:

"Oh, good morning."

In addition to Warfarin, there was also a short man named Wolper standing in the testing room. After Hemer greeted Warfarin, he introduced him to the other party:

"This is Susulo, a graduate of the Medical University of Syracuse."

"Hello, Miss Fafalin, my name is Susu Luo. I just arrived at Rhodes Island for an internship not long ago. Please don't misunderstand my age, I just haven't grown taller." Susu Luo said to the White Wolf with his little face raised.

Before White Wolf could answer, he heard Huafalin's undisguised laughter. She pointed at White Wolf and said to Susu Luo, "Falfalin is a nickname. Her Rhodes Island code name is White Wolf. Look, white hair, isn't that White Wolf?"

"Oh! I'm sorry." Realizing his mistake, Su Su Luo apologized quickly with a red face.

"It's okay, you can call me anything you want." Bai Lang comforted, and then glared at Huafalin with dissatisfaction. If she hadn't called her Fafalin first, Su Su Luo would not have made a mistake. In short, this Huafalin was suspected of bullying the newcomer.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I really couldn't help it. It's getting late, let's do the test quickly. This time you are teaching material." Hua Farin said with a smile and turned on the tester.

She lifted up Bai Lang's sleeve, skillfully drew 10 milliliters of blood from his arm with a syringe, then transferred it to the testing instrument and began to teach Su Su Luo the key points of the test.

Judging from their conversation, Huafalin was very satisfied with this new university intern, and the teaching work seemed to be going smoothly. But in the end, Huafalin's face gradually became gloomy, and she even spoke less.

"White Wolf, have you been taking inhibitors on time these days?" she asked, looking up.

"Yes, I took it once after the test the afternoon before yesterday, and again yesterday afternoon. Today's time is not yet up."

Hemer couldn't help but ask, "Has it worsened? To what extent?"

"The crystal density of the Blood Origin Stone is 0.25. Last time it was 0.24. That is to say, after taking the most effective Type III inhibitor continuously, it has risen by a full point in two days!"

Hemer frowned. Although the patient's condition had deteriorated beyond her expectations, she had enough experience to deal with this situation. "First, test whether it is drug rejection. Su Su Luo, go call White-faced Owl over and ask her to prepare the data analysis."

"Okay, Dr. Hemer." Su Su Luo responded and left the testing room.

"As usual, leave the activity testing to me." Huafarin said as he prepared a scalpel and new medical gloves.

To be honest, Hemer and the others' actions made Bai Lang's heart beat fast and she felt a little scared. She nervously followed Hemer's instructions and put her left arm into the instrument.

As soon as the White Owl arrived, a new round of medical examinations began. White Wolf felt anesthesia injected into her arm, and then a needle was inserted directly into her left arm from the location of the Originium particles. She didn't want to see the details of the process, so she turned her head to observe the White Owl she hadn't seen for a long time.

The strange girl was staring blankly at the instrument display, as if she was distracted. The White Wolf stared at the strand of hair on her head that was moving up and down automatically without any wind, and she thought it was quite amusing.

About half an hour later, the medical examination was finally over. The two main doctors had strange expressions on their faces and could not tell whether the result was good or bad.

Hemer spoke first: "There is good news and bad news."

"Let me tell you the bad news first." White Wolf said decisively.

"You should know that inhibitors have a limited range of effectiveness and are useless for certain individuals. This is the case with type III inhibitors for you. Type III is an optimized version of type II. Similarly, type II is ineffective for you."

"What's the good news?"

"This proves that the rate of deterioration of the disease is still within an acceptable range. If the disease deteriorates by one point in two days while Type III is effective, it is not just a simple moderate infection. In addition, we also found that the Type I inhibitor, which was discarded shortly after use due to its biggest flaw, had an inhibitory reaction to the Originium crystals on your arm."

Volume 3: Chapter 14 News about Officer Chen

"So, there is still hope?"

"Don't say that." Warfarin interrupted, "Even if type I is useless, there are other treatment options. Now there is no need to consider whether there is a cure. However, type I inhibitors cannot stably control the condition of mineralogy, and your symptoms will continue to slowly worsen."

"That's it. Nothing is perfect. I'm satisfied as long as the inhibitor is effective." Bai Lang said in a relaxed tone. She stood up and said goodbye to her two attending physicians, White-Faced Owl and Su Su Luo, and left the testing room leisurely.

As soon as she left, the two attending physicians began a special conversation.

"Warfarin, I've always been confused about type I inhibitors."

"Well, I understand what you want to say, but I don't know the details. I only know that it is related to that research institute."

Hemer was silent for a while, then asked, "Chernobog?"

"Of course, where else could it be?"

"Is the relevant information still there?"

"Yes, but are you sure you want to continue researching? Kal'tsit and I have tried it many times, and you saw the result, there is no result!" Huafalin shrugged.

"I still want to give it a try." Hemer said lightly.

"Okay, I won't stop you. The documents are all with Kal'tsit, just go get them from her."

In Huafalin's opinion, Hemer's behavior was not rational, but she could understand his feelings. After all, she had experienced countless failures before she reluctantly changed her research direction. It was also possible that Hemer could really make new progress.

What she didn't know was that Hemer actually had other considerations.

When testing White Wolf with type I inhibitors not long ago, Hemer observed some subtle and unique agglutination-like reactions on White Wolf's left arm. These were exactly the same as the examples she had seen at a certain executive-level research conference when she was at Rhine Life, which she was allowed to attend as an exception. Because it was so special, she had always kept it in mind.

Kal'tsit once confessed to her that she had served as the director of the Che City Research Institute. After the institute was in trouble, its inheritance was divided up among different people and forces. Now it seems that a portion of it must have been passed on to Rhine Life after several twists and turns, and is only controlled by people at the supervisor level.

If we have this information, the Type I inhibitor may be able to continue to be developed, and White Wolf's Originium disease can be better suppressed.

And she happened to know someone who was a senior executive at Rhine Life. If she contacted that person, she would most likely be able to get a copy of the information.

However, the rift that had already arisen was not so easy to bridge. Even though White Wolf later told her about Saria's arrangement, she still didn't know how to face this person.

While Hemer was in distress, White Wolf had already arrived at Kal'tsit's office with ease.

She first asked Kal'tsit for a dozen envelopes, and also took a stack of letter paper. Finally, she suddenly found that the other party's pens looked good, and there seemed to be a lot of them. So she picked one with a beautiful silver metallic luster and threatened to "borrow" it back to try it out.

In Kal'tsit's eyes, this guy was just bored and came here to rob, but she was not angry at all. On the contrary, she thought it was quite interesting to have someone hanging around her.

Not long after, Amiya came over, and Bailang put the letter he wrote in the envelope he had just asked for from Kal'tsit and handed it to her.

Amiya took the letter and nodded, "Thank you for your hard work, Miss White Wolf."

"Not hard, not hard."

Actually, I only wrote a few lines, she thought to herself.

Then, she saw Amiya hand a document to Kal'tsit: "We have already negotiated with Longmen. Officer Chen will come in two days. The other party insisted on using the name of a cooperative operator."

Kal'tsit frowned: "Cooperator, she wants to conduct an investigation inside Rhodes Island?"

"That's what it looks like now. It feels like she's doubting us, Rhodes Island." Amiya pinched her chin with her index and middle fingers, her eyebrows raised in an inverted eight shape, and her little face looked extremely serious.

"Uh, this Officer Chen you are talking about, is she the one from the Guard Bureau?" Bai Lang asked timidly from the side.

"Yes, the senior police superintendent of Longmen, Miss White Wolf knows her?" Amiya asked back.

"I've met him once. Well, after all, Officer Chen is very famous. I just happened to pass by Longmen and happened to meet him... It's not a big deal. By the way, Kal'tsit, how is the communication with Mr. Lin going?"

"We have already got the result, but Mr. Lin said he is dealing with household chores and cannot spare the time for now, so we have agreed to let you go back in a week."

Bai Lang shook his head repeatedly: "That's not necessary. I'll go there tomorrow, oh no, the day after tomorrow. It's a good opportunity for me to get familiar with Longmen in advance."

"But doesn't Miss White Wolf have to undergo regular testing?" Amiya scratched the back of her head. "Wouldn't it be troublesome to go there early?"

"It's not a problem at all." White Wolf said confidently, "The journey between Rhodes Island and Longmen is only about three hours, so it's very convenient to go back and forth."

She had already made plans for herself. Every two days, she would take a taxi back at night and go to Warfarin's house next door to do a test. In the early morning, she would take or drive the Rhodes Island car to Longmen, and then go to the hotel to catch up on some sleep.

As long as she didn't let Officer Chen find out, he would never be able to find out about Olicia in Rhodes Island. And there was no need to worry about Skadi, the only person who knew about it. Miss Skadi was even more wary of Officer Chen than she was!

After figuring out the key, White Wolf breathed a sigh of relief, but when she considered that she only had two days left in Rhodes Island, she suddenly felt that everything was full of urgency. She hurriedly said goodbye to the two of them, turned left and went to Korsil's store to check out. She didn't know whether the furniture Ifrit chose was expensive.

Watching White Wolf leaving in a hurry, Kal'tsit suddenly had a hunch that there must be something wrong between White Wolf and Inspector Chen, and it was most likely not a good thing. Thinking of Inspector Chen's illustrious reputation, she felt annoyed for no reason.

She looked at the documents in her hand and said to Amiya:

"Since Inspector Chen said she wants to be a cooperating operator, then we should follow the rules of cooperating operators. Amiya, isn't the mission of Team A4 difficult to handle? When Inspector Chen comes, we can entrust it to her."

"Ah?! Kal'tsit, Commander Wei warned us yesterday that special people should be treated specially..."

"Amiya, sometimes we need to be flexible and consider the opinions of the operators. Did Wei Yanwu say anything about how to treat them specially?"

"Well, it doesn't seem like it, but could it mean anything else?"

Kal'tsit frowned, then sneered, "It doesn't matter. It's not Wei Yanwu's turn to make decisions about Rhodes Island."

Volume 3: Chapter 15: A Profit without Loss

Rhodes Island's store was located next to the engineering department. When White Wolf came to the store, she did not see the owner. Instead, she was greeted by a magical mechanical car.

This is a white car that is gray all over and about one meter tall. It uses three sets of universal wheels as a means of transportation. Apart from being able to talk and move on its own, its other uses cannot be seen for the time being.

The car moved in front of the white wolf and issued a mechanical synthetic voice: "Welcome, welcome, I am Lancet-0, please choose your own items, the host will be here soon."

"Is the master you are talking about 'Kulushiel'?" White Wolf asked casually. As soon as she opened her mouth, she felt that it was unnecessary. This machine was most likely a repeater with a built-in recorder function. How could it possibly answer her question?

However, the car's performance was beyond her expectations. It actually replied: "Yes, my master is the great engineer Kulusir. Do you need me to tell you about my master's title?"

This piqued Bai Lang's interest. She retracted her previous idea of ​​a repeater and wanted to test whether this was an artificial idiot. She deliberately asked in a chatty tone: "Tell me about it."

"Okay. The master is one of the top 100 young men in Kazdel, a great system engineer of the Rhodes Island SUPERVISOR, an advocate of open source software, and the Rhodes Island ship..."

"Why did you stop?"

"The master is coming back." The mechanical car drove itself to the door and swayed up and down, as if it wanted to jump for joy, but it couldn't jump after all. However, the meaning was conveyed clearly.

A Sarkaz woman wearing a dark blue coat, a black tool bag on her waist, and holding a wrench and screws in her hands came over. She knocked on the "head" of the white car with the wrench, nodded with satisfaction, and then greeted the white wolf who had just walked out of the store door enthusiastically:

"You must be Miss White Wolf. I have been looking forward to seeing you for a long time. I didn't expect you to visit our store just now."

It should be Kal'tsit who told the other party about the drone, White Wolf thought, and she stretched out her right hand imitating Kong Xian's movements.

"Uh, nice to meet you, nice to meet you. Actually, I'm not here to discuss the drone business today. The cooperation with Longmen has not been discussed yet. I want to make arrangements after everything is confirmed."

Krusil put the wrench in her pocket and shook hands with White Wolf:
