Act 273. mutation
Reiner held back his confusion and waited for Baptiste's explanation.
"What did you say?"
Edgar was righteous at this time and asked.
"The reason why these sea wolves can have intelligence beyond their kind must be because they have human souls, and your theory of species evolution is all a lie!"
"Why are you doing this, Mr. Baptiste?"
At this time, Agnes, who had been silent, asked, her face expressionless, a huge difference from the eclectic mage before.
"There is no cure for Osborne Cara's disease so far, and with my current level of magic, it may take longer to make a breakthrough, and more importantly, research funding."
Baptiste said, his back a little lonely.
"I once submitted an application to the Magical Society to get resources to study Osborne Cara's disease, but the Magical Society never approved it after the first two grants, and taking care of these children, studying Osborne Cara's disease, and the corresponding experimental materials, all require money or academic credits."
Baptiste has published many papers on the half-plane ecology of Erasmus in recent years, but most of these papers are classified as observational papers, which are not as valuable as those that summarize the laws and laws, so they do not receive many academic points.
As for money, he had already sold the property he had inherited from his father, and this institute now served as Baptiste's residence.
"As long as my paper can be approved, the academic points will be enough to continue my research, and it will be easy to apply for more funding from the Magical Society."
Baptiste said helplessly.
"Even if all of this is finally discovered, it will be enough to make people pay attention to the disease and invest more resources in it."
He lamented his own incompetence, but he also lamented the powerlessness of the world.
The mages are pragmatist, and they will study a cure for Osborne Cara's disease, but if the long-term attempt fails, most mages will abandon this path, after all, it is possible to continue research, and it is futile to spend a lifetime of energy.
On the other hand, the incidence of Osborne Caralasis is not high, it is not contagious, and on the other hand, the patients of this disease are all children and die young, making this disease quite difficult and difficult to deal with.
"In the beginning, it was a boy named Joseph, who had a very high talent for magic, but suffered from Osborne Cara's disease, and in his last days, he proposed this idea to me, he wanted to live, even if he abandoned the human attitude, he was my first test subject, and it failed as a matter of course, his soul was entangled with the wild **, and he let out a low whimper, while trying to bite every creature he saw, and finally, I killed the mutated beast with my own hands."
Baptiste sighed.
"Transferring the souls of these children into the bodies of beasts, waiting until they can be completely healed, and then transferring them back to their original bodies, this is the method I am currently taking, but after all, different souls cannot adapt to the body, and at most three years, the souls of these children need to be changed to a new body, otherwise they will be eroded, and they will no longer be able to maintain human consciousness."
"You know we're not going to cover you up."
Edgar said that even if Baptiste's actions were excusable, they violated the most basic laws and bottom lines, and they could not turn a blind eye.
"I'm telling you this, in fact, I'm not afraid to accept sanctions, yesterday, Mr. Ian Gray's words made me understand some truth, maybe it's true that I've been studying alone for too long, and I've forgotten a lot of important things."
Baptiste shook his head.
"I'm going to give all the research materials to the Magic Society, my students are completely unaware of these things, and I just hope that the Magic Society will not interrupt the study of Osborne Cara's disease."
Reiner didn't speak.
Is what Baptiste did evil?
In order to save these sick children, he did not hesitate to falsify research evidence, and even conducted soul experiments to transfer the souls of dead children to animals, which is what only a mad mage can do.
Is what Baptiste does for good?
He gave up his dignity as a mage, and did not hesitate to break the taboo, just to draw attention to this long-abandoned illness and sick child, which those pragmatist mages would not do.
Perhaps, as Reiner said before, everything in this world is not black and white, and good and evil will coexist in one person.
Humans are such contradictory creatures.
"No, wait a minute."
Agnes spoke suddenly, causing Edgar to frown.
"I think your research does have a higher value."
Agnes said in a deep voice.
"It's not about Osborne Cara's disease, it's about your magic, the magic that can extract and transfer souls to other bodies."
When she said this, Baptiste was stunned.
But Reiner quickly grasped what it meant.
Being able to transfer the soul means being able to transfer consciousness to other bodies, and Baptiste's attempts to transfer human souls to animal bodies have been successful, so it is bound to be easier to transfer human souls to souls that are also human beings, or at least there is a possibility of success.
Out of the last moral bottom line, Baptiste only transferred the soul that had just died and had not yet dissipated, and the carrier was only an animal, but if this magic was verified, transferring the soul to another living person while alive was not an act that no one dared to try.
For example, if a powerful mage transfers his soul into another person's body and thus occupies the other person's body, who can guarantee that no one will do such a thing?
One of the biggest problems that plagues mages is that they cannot live forever, the human body always has its limits, and the strength of the soul cannot keep the body young, even if it is a legendary mage, there will be a day when it falls.
But if Baptiste's spell is successfully practiced, then the High Mage will be able to pass on his consciousness permanently, even if it requires sacrificing a young human to use it as a vehicle for thinking.
What Baptiste did was nothing at all, by contrast.
"If this magic is done, it will not only change the current situation of these children, but the whole world."
Agnes said, her eyes filled with frenzy.
