In the research institute, when Mi'er and Mia woke up, they didn't seem to look very good.

"Mi'er." Miya said secretly, "Your face is a little ugly. ”

"Don't talk about it, I had several nightmares last night." Mi'er said tiredly.

"Me too!" Mia exclaimed, "I dreamed that I was trapped in a sunken palace beneath Constantinople, and the ground was full of vicious dogs!" ”

"I'm ......," Mi'er said, opening her mouth, "almost." ”

In fact, she dreamed that Asker and the other girls in the team took turns getting married, and she was tired in the dream of constantly attending everyone's wedding, watching them happily exchange rings and kiss the captain, and the tears almost flowed.

"Looks like you didn't sleep well." Asker sat down in a chair next to him and took out a slender can and glass from under the table, "Although minors can't drink, I think you guys will be more comfortable with a sip." ”

"What does it matter to be underage? I drink a lot in the Thieves' Guild. Miya immediately snatched the jar, expertly poured herself a glass, sniffed, "Aged whiskey, where did you get it?" ”

"In the warehouse." Asker said.

"Hey, hey." Miya took a sip, and her face immediately turned crimson.

"Enough, can't drink more." Asker snatched the jar from her.

Even if she is mentally eroded by the abyss, a sip of wine is enough to relieve mental stress - Mia is not an adult after all, and lacks the corresponding self-control.

"Give it back!" Mia hurriedly threw herself into his arms, grabbing his shoulders and trying to reach for the jug. Asker held the jar high in his hand, so that Mia could only rub against his body......

"Mia!" Mi'er was immediately angry and stepped forward and pulled her down. As a result, as soon as Mia turned her head, she couldn't help but burp, and Mi'er quickly pinched her nose.

"Asker, are we going to stay here?" She asked, a little uncomfortably.

"Of course, we're in the abyss." Asker replied, "The safest option is, of course, to wait for rescue in this institute, or to wait for Mia to fully master the Sword of Ripples." ”

"Wait for Mia to master the Sword of Ripples?" Mi'er laughed a little and looked at Mia, who was drunk next to her, "Can she do it?" ”

"I believe Mia has outstanding talent in this area." Aske replied, "Maybe you can look into the future and see if I'm right." ”

"Okay." Mi'er began to observe the future. After a few moments, she suddenly noticed something strange.

"Hey, Asker, there's something wrong with that." The half-elf girl said vigilantly, "In the next few days, the spiritual erosion from the abyss will increase dramatically......"

"That's because of the coating." A mechanical electronic voice sounded at the doorway, and Capet, the synth, had walked into the room at some point, "When this research institute was built, the exterior was coated to insulate the abyssal erosion. ”

"However, after more than 1,700 years of natural aging, these coatings have now broken down, so you will still suffer from the spiritual erosion of the abyss in the Institute...... Even more unfortunate is that the abyssal tide has entered an upward phase. In the next half month, the abyssal erosion will gradually rise until it reaches its peak. ”

"Is there a way to fix it?" Mi'er asked.

"For you humans, there is no complete solution." "Even the coating materials stored in the warehouse have not been stored for as long as canned food, so they have rotted completely." ”

"But you can alleviate the mental damage to the erosion by taking medication, I gave you some diazepam tablets this morning, and you don't seem to be taking them?"

"I think it's better not to take medicine indiscriminately, especially without a doctor." Asker stared at it.

"It's your freedom, visitor." The red light in Capet's eyes seemed to flicker, and he turned away.

When the door to the room closed again, Mi'er turned to look at Asker, and asked in a low voice:

"Asker...... Is there something wrong with this synth? ”

"There's clearly a problem." Aske replied, staring at the door, "I just don't know if it's friendly to us or malicious at the moment." ”

Mi'er sighed, thinking that if Nora was here, she would immediately be able to confirm whether the medicine was safe or not; Even without Nola, if Medea were here, she would be able to quickly tell if the other party had malicious intent.

It seems that Minerva has no choice but to turn to Minerva.

So she once again summoned the Fruit of Eden and summoned the Banshee King of the Parallel World.

——————————

"Diazepam Valium Tablets?" Minerva weighed the vial in her hand and said, "I don't have any research on technological drugs, but I know that this is the bottom of the abyss. It is simply impossible to rely on drugs alone to resist mental erosion. ”

"Even if you are a watchdog organization, you must wear full coverage with an anti-erosion coating at all times, take regular medications, and undergo psychological examinations and therapy in this position."

"So that synth lied to us?" Mi'er guessed, "These drugs don't do much for us?" ”

"It's just that drugs alone are not enough." Minerva replied, "As for whether this medicine is true or not, and what it is intended for you...... I can't guess. ”

"If you don't worry, I'll just destroy it, so you don't have to worry too much about it."

"Don't bother you to do it yet." "After all, it has lived here for more than 1,700 years. If there is no hostility towards us, it is far more valuable to keep it than to destroy it, especially in terms of intelligence. ”

"Maybe I can try to control it with the curse ability." Minerva said uncertainly, "Let it tell me all it knows." ”

"This could be used as an alternative." "Before we do that, we're going to do one thing. ”

"What's the matter?"

"Wake Mia up." Asker pointed to Mia, who was lying drunk on the table.

What, Mia's alcohol consumption is too bad, and she brags that she used to drink a lot...... Mi'er was completely speechless.

Minerva floated softly to her side, and without any cursing powers, just pressed her finger to Miya's neck, who quickly shivered and slowly woke up.

"So for the rest of the day, let's continue to wait and test this synth by the way?" Mi'er asked.

"Yes." Aske replied, "I'll take care of it." ”

"Mi'er, you are responsible for observing the future, especially every time I ask a question, all the corresponding answers it may make, you need to observe and record it in advance. These answers you give will determine what questions I want to ask it next time. ”

"Mia, your goal is to become proficient with the Ripple Sword as quickly as possible, and I need you to devote all of your time to practice. Note that it is all the time, and I will monitor you every day in this regard. ”

"Huh?" Mia's head immediately drooped.
