Meet the principal

Reiner suppressed 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 are more intelligent than their own kind must be because they possess human souls. Your theories on species evolution are all lies!"

"Mr. Baptiste, why did you do this?"

At this time, Agnes, who had been silent all this time, asked. There was no expression on her face, which was very different from the previous mage who looked informal.

"There is no possibility of curing Osborne Kara disease so far. With my current level of magic, it may take longer to make a breakthrough. More importantly, research funds are needed."

Baptiste said, his back looking a little lonely.

"I once submitted an application to the Magic Association to get resources to research Osborne's disease, but the Magic Association never approved it after the first two grants. Instead, it is time to take care of these children and study Osborne's disease. Kara disease and the corresponding experimental materials all require money or academic points."

Baptiste has published many papers on the ecology of the demiplane of Erasmus in recent years, but most of these papers are classified as observational papers and are not as valuable as those papers summarizing laws and regulations, so he has obtained There are not many academic points.

As for money, he had already sold off the property he inherited from his father, and now this institute is Baptiste's residence.

"As long as my thesis can pass the review and bring enough academic points to continue my research, it will be easy to apply for more funding from the Magic Association."

Baptiste said helplessly.

"Even if all this is eventually discovered, it will be enough to make people pay attention to this disease and invest more resources in it."

He lamented his own incompetence and also lamented the powerlessness of the world.

Mages advocate pragmatism, and they will research ways to treat Osborn Kara syndrome. However, if long-term attempts fail, most mages will give up on this path. After all, it is possible to continue research and spend a lifetime of energy. It's all in vain.

On the other hand, the incidence rate of Osborne Kara syndrome is not high and it is not contagious. On the other hand, the patients with this disease are all children and die young, making this disease a very difficult and difficult to deal with. Perhaps the entire On the continent, among the countless demiplanes, only Baptiste is still researching a cure.

"In the beginning, there was a boy named Joseph. He had extremely high magical talent, but suffered from Osborne Kara syndrome. In his last moments, he proposed this idea to me. He wanted to live, even if he abandoned it. In human form, he was also my first test subject, and he failed as expected. His soul was entangled with wild beasts, and while whimpering softly, he tried to bite all the creatures he saw. In the end, I Killed the mutated beast with my own hands."

Baptiste sighed.

"Transfer the souls of these children into the bodies of beasts, wait until they are completely cured, and then transfer them back to their original bodies. This is the method I am currently taking. However, different souls cannot adapt to the body after all. It will take up to three years for these The souls of the children need to be transferred to new bodies, otherwise they will be eroded.

Human consciousness can no longer be maintained. "

"You know we won't cover you up."

Edgar said that even if what Baptiste did was excusable, it still violated the most basic laws and bottom lines, and they could not turn a blind eye.

"I am telling you this, and I am actually not afraid of accepting sanctions. Yesterday, Mr. Ian Gray's words made me understand some truths. Perhaps it is true that I have been studying alone for too long and have forgotten many important things. matter."

Baptiste shook his head.

"I will hand over all research materials to the Magic Association. My students are completely unaware of these things. I only hope that the Magic Association will not interrupt the research on Osborn Kara syndrome."

Reiner said nothing.

Was what Baptiste did evil?

In order to save these sick children, he did not hesitate to forge research evidence and even conducted soul experiments to transfer the souls of dead children to animals. These are things that only a crazy mage can do.

Was what Baptiste did kind?

He gave up his dignity as a mage and did not hesitate to violate taboos, just to draw people's attention to this long-abandoned disease and sick children. These are things that mages who advocate pragmatism would not do.

Perhaps as Reiner said before, things in this world are not all black and white, good and evil will coexist in a person.

Humans are such contradictory creatures.

"No, wait a minute."

Agnes suddenly spoke, making Edgar frown.

"I think your research does have higher value."

Agnes said solemnly.

"This has nothing to do with Osborne Kara Syndrome. The focus is on your magic, the magic that can extract and transfer the soul to other bodies."

When she said this, Baptiste was stunned.

But Reiner quickly understood the meaning.

Being able to transfer souls means that you can transfer consciousness to other bodies. Baptiste has succeeded in trying to transfer human souls into the bodies of animals, so it is inevitable to transfer human souls into the souls of other humans. It will be easier, at least there will be a possibility of success.

Out of the final moral bottom line, Baptiste only transferred the recently deceased soul that has not yet dissipated, and the carrier is only an animal. But if this magic is verified, the soul can be transferred to another living person while alive. It is not something that no one dares to try.

For example, a powerful mage transfers his soul into another person's body, thereby occupying the other person's body. Who can guarantee that no one will do such a thing?

One of the biggest problems that troubles 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 legendary mages will eventually fall.

But if Baptiste's spell is successfully practiced, then the high-level mage will be able to pass on his consciousness permanently, even if it requires sacrificing a young human as a carrier of thinking.

What Baptiste did was nothing in comparison.

"If this magic is completed, it will not only change the current situation of these children, but the entire world."

Agnes said, her eyes filled with fervor.
