"This way, please."

Baptiste raised his hand and motioned for the group to follow him, and they moved down the corridor on the other side, as they walked, he continued to explain.

"Auburns' allalla syndrome has been considered a terminal disease since its discovery, and unlike Fitzruin syndrome, which cannot withstand magic, this condition does not heal naturally over time, but only gradually erodes the body, leading to organ failure and death."

Fitzruin Syndrome Reiner knew that this was a condition that Fina had before, and that the patient would have a strong rejection of the magic fluctuations around her, but as the patient grew older, the condition would gradually lessen and eventually become the same as a normal person.

In Baptiste's description, Auburnscara's disease is even more terrifying, almost a declaration of death, and for the poor children, who have been shrouded in death since birth.

"I've been in contact with a few sick children before, their families are okay, but they can only survive, if it is a poorer family, they may choose to drown the baby when they are born, it seems very cruel, but for those poor families, this is a common occurrence, because Auburnscara disease can gradually become serious, especially in a city like a city full of a lot of pollution, ordinary families simply cannot afford the cost of treatment, and that treatment, It's just a matter of delaying death. ”

He sighed, as if the faces of children who had died prematurely appeared in his eyes.

"I felt that these children were very pitiful, so I decided to take them in, and through the Magic Association, I announced to the continent and all half-planes that as long as there are children with Osborne Cara's disease, they can be sent to my research institute, and I will provide treatment for these children free of charge."

They walked through a corridor that connected several buildings, and the windows were being washed by the rain, making it difficult to see the buildings opposite, even if they were not far away, and the rain made the world noisy and silent.

"At this time, I happened to get several reports, there are about the half-dimensional creatures of Erasmus, the unique ecological environment here leads to the unique subspecies of even the commonly visible creatures, and this half-dimensional environment is also quite suitable for the growth of children, so I applied and set up the institute here, while being able to study the evolution of these creatures here, and at the same time to conduct some experimental research on Osborne Cara's disease."

No sooner had Baptiste finished speaking than they reached the end of the hallway.

Compared to the spacious and bright lobby at the beginning, this building has more rooms and is smaller, with numbered doorways that look like separate dormitories.

"This building is the living area, there is a cafeteria on the first floor, a recreation room and a library on the second floor, and the dormitories are distributed on these floors, and your room is on the top floor, where there are suites specially prepared for guests."

Baptiste took Reiner and the others to the fourth floor of the building by the elevator.

Each room here is relatively larger, with only one bed, which is indeed more like a guest room.

After assigning the room a little, Reiner looked at his pocket watch, and if there was no obvious time difference between the half-planes, it would have been 6:12 p.m. by now.

It's time for dinner.

Reiner can not be very particular about other things, but as a traveler in a big foodie country, three meals a day must be particular.

The last few meals, although they tasted good, always had a curry smell lingering between his lips and teeth, lingering, making Reiner feel that something was missing.

"If it's convenient for you, please go to the cafeteria on the first floor, and the teacher will invite you to dinner."

The knock on the door was a slightly young boy with a horizontal ring and many freckles on his face.

Reiner, who had already cleaned up, nodded in agreement, walked out of the room, and saw that Elimia also happened to come out, she glanced at Reiner, didn't know how to say hello, and simply turned around and left directly.

"Hehe, a girl's mind is always elusive, isn't it?"

Behind Reiner, Agnes smiled slightly, as if she saw something.

No, Miss Agnes, things are not what you think.

Shaking her head helplessly, Reiner didn't explain much in the end, and went downstairs with Agnes and her two students, who were already sitting in the cafeteria.

The cafeteria was very large, probably prepared for the full capacity of this institute, there were three long tables large enough to accommodate thirty people, one of the tables was already full of children, they looked at Reiner and the others with curious eyes, whispering from time to time, but there was no kind of noise peculiar to bear children, it seemed that these children were very sensible, perhaps fate played a bad joke on them, but also made these children mature earlier.

Baptiste sat at the head of the table in the middle, while his three students sat a little farther away, leaving room for Agnes and the others.

The other table was empty, and it seemed that they preferred to eat together more than a more spacious dining space.

Reiner sat a little further away from Baptiste, with Arymia across from him.

Baptiste gave a dinner speech, roughly welcoming the magical expedition, and then, clapping his hands, the alchemist pushed the cart with the food into the cafeteria.

In the past, there were alchemists whose long-cherished wish was to make alchemy dolls that were identical to humans, also known as artificial humans, but ultimately failed, and since then, the mercury balance has strictly forbidden mages to make alchemical creatures that are similar to human appearances.

Dinner was hearty, with roast chicken, fried steak, fried fish, pork pies, grilled sausages, stewed lamb, hummus, fried potatoes, boiled cauliflower, clam soup, mango pudding, vanilla ice cream, and, of course, plenty of buttered white bread, which were clearly not produced by the Erasmus half-plane, but should have been imported from the Sedna half-plane.

There was occasional conversation as the children ate, but it was much quieter than what he had seen elsewhere, and Reiner couldn't help but feel sad about their fate as he marveled at the upbringing of the children.

"Lord Baptiste, I'm a little curious, how can creatures survive in such a harsh environment during the rainy season here?"

Agnes asked, holding a glass of red wine with a slightly drunken face.

"It is precisely because of the harsh environment here that can contribute to the rapid evolution of organisms, as I said in my paper, when organisms feel the pressure of survival and urgently need a certain ability, they will quickly evolve corresponding organs, and continue to evolve through continuous use."

Baptiste said, looking at Reiner and asking.

"Mr. Ian Gray, what do you think of this theory?"

Suddenly asked, although Reiner was not prepared, but fortunately, he had carefully read Baptiste's paper before, he thought about it, and still said.

"Lord Baptiste, to tell you the truth, I think there is a slight flaw in the theory of 'use in and in waste and retreat.'"

His words made the atmosphere at the table suddenly a little awkward.
