Arknights' Lock of Heaven

It's getting better... but this is Oripathy!

"Liz, are you sure..."

“Indeed,” Shining nodded with a conflicted expression.

"Although the improvement is very small, it is indeed slowly getting better."

"But that's not the only thing I don't understand."

Upon hearing this, Lin Guang's eyes widened.

The improvement in Oripathy is not the biggest mystery; what is it then?

Seeing Nearl's stunned expression, Shining slowly took out a syringe.

"Isn't this an inhibitor from Rhodes Island?"

Lin Guang recognized it at a glance.

After all, she has dealt with these inhibitors quite a bit. Although she is not an infected person, she is on Rhodes Island, so how can she avoid dealing with drugs?

It's still Rhodes Island's signature potion.

"According to those patients, their condition only developed after they used this batch of inhibitors."

As she spoke, Shining's face became even more conflicted.

She is considered one of the backbones of Rhodes Island's medical department, and naturally, she has contributed to the development of inhibitors.

When it comes to understanding this drug, no one knows it better than these medical department staff.

This thing can't possibly do that!

Inhibitors, as the name suggests, are substances that prevent the condition from worsening.

We should be thankful that it has this effect; how could we expect it to cure the disease?

If someone had told Shining before today that Rhodes Island's inhibitors could cure Oripathy, she would have taken that person to the medical department to have their brain checked.

As you can tell from the name, this thing can't cure diseases.

But now the reality is right in front of us.

This stuff really can cure diseases.

Shining was even more confused.

As one of the developers, how could she not know about this effect?

It didn't appear in the clinical trials either.

"This..." Lin Guang was speechless for a moment when he heard this.

She was well aware of the effects of Rhodes Island's inhibitors, since many field missions involved transporting these drugs.

However, she quickly found a breakthrough.

"Where did they get these inhibitors?"

Nearl asked in confusion, "I remember Rhodes Island hasn't started operations in Kazimierz yet."

"It was obtained from Xia Yu, the consultant."

The Shining, however, figured out the source.

“Xia Yu…” Upon hearing this, Lin Guang didn’t know what to say.

This person is incredibly amazing.

"Could it be some kind of external factor? Like food, water, or something like that..."

Lin Guang guessed again.

It's not that I lack confidence in my own drug; on the contrary, it's because I'm too confident that I know that Rhodes Island's inhibitors absolutely do not have this effect.

This cannot be explained by science at all.

“Impossible,” Shining shook his head. “I asked around carefully, and the water and food for these people haven’t changed much. There’s no reason why it wasn’t effective before, but suddenly became effective after the inhibitor arrived.”

“They’re quite enthusiastic,” Lin Guang remarked upon hearing this. “Unlike infected people in other places, they’re not so cautious and don’t want to interact with anyone.”

"Xia Yu, the consultant, did a great job with the preliminary work."

“No, it’s mainly because of these potions,” Shining shook his head. “They were initially quite distrustful of us, but after they heard we were doctors from Rhodes Island, their attitude immediately became friendly…”

"Honestly, this is the first time I've ever seen anyone so close to Sarkaz."

Upon hearing this, both of them fell silent.

Ultimately, there is only one reason.

This is the batch of drugs...

"I think it's necessary for our ship to be informed of these matters as soon as possible."

Lin Guang took a deep breath. "Without further ado, let's return to our ship."

She did not connect the changes in the medication with Xia Yu.

After all, in Lin Guang's eyes, Xia Yu was clearly a reliable warrior, completely unrelated to a doctor.

As for Shining and Nightingale... they had only met Xia Yu a few times, let alone understood her.

"Before that, let's go ask Consultant Xia Yu which production line this batch of drugs came from..."

“No need,” Xia Yu said as they were discussing, lifting the tent flap and walking in.

"I know all of this."

229 Skadi: You...remember me?

"I will personally go back and talk to Kal'tsit about this batch of drugs."

Looking at the trio of apostles inside the tent, Xia Yu said calmly, "There's also the situation in Kazimir, our arrangements, and the issue of resettling these infected..."

Wow, there's so much to it when you think about it.

"Uh, you're planning to settle them?" Upon hearing this, Shining and the others were stunned.

Placing patients... that's not within the scope of a medical company's business.

This is something the government should do.

"Regarding these things..." Lin Guang frowned upon hearing this, "Sigh, our family's fiefdom was enough to be given away back then..."

“Oh, by the way,” Xia Yu looked at Lin Guang and asked, “Margaret, what are your impressions of the Securities and Futures Commission?”

"Securities and Insurance Regulatory Commission?" Lin Guang frowned upon hearing this.

There is no doubt that she dislikes the Business Council, but that doesn't mean she likes the Securities and Futures Commission.

However, compared to the former, the latter was more acceptable to her.

Although she felt close to some of them, the vast majority...

Looking at her expression, Xia Yu understood.

“Well, it’s good that you don’t have much affection for them,” Xia Yu nodded. “I’m going to trick them.”

"Incidentally, they'll also swindle the Business Federation, and then fill in the Unarmored Alliance in the end."

These words were spoken lightly, but their content was enough to be shocking.

Upon hearing this, Lin Guang suddenly recalled the Doctor's tearful pleas, clinging to her arm, before they set off.

"Lingguang, you'd better keep a close eye on Xia Yu when you get back, don't let him cause any trouble!"

At the time, she was still puzzled. Although she didn't know much about Xia Yu, she remembered very clearly the figure of Lin Guang who stood behind everyone in Chernobog and faced the Reunion Movement army alone.

"Xia Yu, the consultant, shouldn't be an unstable person, right...?"

This is how she answered the doctor at the time.

But what am I hearing now?

The consultant said he was going to screw over the Securities and Futures Commission, and also take down the Hong Kong Federation of Industry and Commerce and the Non-Armed Alliance...

This is this...

What is this for?

To wipe out the entire high command of Kazimierz?

Lin Guang was immediately stunned.

"I understand, what kind of pitfall are you referring to?"

She quickly realized what was going on and asked tentatively.

"Oh, it's nothing serious, we just blew up the power core of the Great Knight Territory."

Upon hearing this, Lin Guang almost choked on his breath.

The Shining and Nightingale around them also looked surprised.

A power core... and a power core from a place like the Great Knight's Territory...
