Her eyes widened slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Then... could it be used directly?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without hesitation, she reached out mentally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Can my blood be used as an antidote?\" she asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Temporal Storage didn’t respond immediately.

I’ll just experiment myself.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A pause. Then the voice returned, slightly calmer this time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Five thousand points. Not less. Not more.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ivy raised an eyebrow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re lowering the price that much?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[I can tell you more than what your experiment will reveal.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ivy chuckled softly. \"Fine. Deal.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The answer came clearly this time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your blood can act as a temporary antidote... but it cannot function as a vaccine.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ivy’s expression stilled. \"A temporary cure...?\" she murmured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Yes.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Understanding dawned quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If someone turns into a zombie... my blood can bring them back,\" she said slowly. \"But if they get infected again...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[They will need you again.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ivy exhaled quietly. \"That’s not sustainable...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her eyes darkened slightly as another thought formed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But our research antidote...\" she continued, \"...it not only cures the infection but also creates resistance.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pieces fell into place. \"The vaccine they’re developing... it’s close to completion.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silas nodded slightly.

Instead, he looked thoughtful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If Jeff caused all this...\" Ivy continued, turning toward him, \"then why?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her voice carried confusion now. \"What does he gain from making humanity suffer like this?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silas frowned slightly, thinking. \"...I’m not sure,\" he admitted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He paused, then added, \"But after an apocalypse like this... there’s one obvious outcome.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ivy looked at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Humanity loses hope,\" he said. \"And their population drops drastically.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ivy frowned immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What’s the point of that?\" she asked. \"They’re not planning to live here among humans, are they?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silas hesitated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Maybe not,\" he said slowly. \"But whatever the reason is... we’ll find out eventually.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ivy looked upward slightly, her gaze distant. Then, without hesitation, she asked,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is there any way to stop these natural disasters? Even temporarily?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The response came almost instantly. [One billion points.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Five hundred million,\" Silas cut in immediately, his tone calm but firm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Temporal Storage snapped back sharply,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s far too low.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silas didn’t waver.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Even with a billion points, you won’t be doing much,\" he said. \"So let’s change the deal.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A brief pause followed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As Ivy earns KB points by helping people from the information provided by you... all those points go to you,\" he continued. \"In exchange, you give her the answer for free.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silence. A long, calculating silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ivy stood still, her heart beating faintly faster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Will it agree...?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Temporal Storage began processing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At present, Ivy was connected to nearly 300,000 people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if each person generated just a huge number of points weekly...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the thought settled, the temporal storage, as if calculating, weighing profit against patience, before finally responding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"[...Alright.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The voice echoed with reluctant acceptance. [I’ll agree to your terms.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[But listen carefully,] the Temporal Storage added, its tone sharpening slightly. [If the quota of one billion points is not met... I will charge you immediately.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ivy didn’t hesitate. \"Okay,\" she replied firmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silas glanced at her, noticing the spark of determination in her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’She didn’t even think twice...’ he thought, but he chose not to interrupt. Instead, he folded his arms and waited silently for the answer to unfold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Temporal Storage continued,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[To completely stop the natural disasters... there are only two viable paths. First... find the one called Jeff.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A pause. [And eliminate him.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Or,\" it continued, \"force him to provide a solution.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ivy’s expression stiffened slightly. \"And if he cannot?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then you follow the second path.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A faint hum echoed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Restore the balance of Earth. Plant more trees. Increase the planet’s vitality. Stop unnatural experiments. Allow nature to recover what has been lost.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silence followed. Ivy lowered her gaze slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That... sounds simple,\" she murmured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then she let out a soft breath. \"Its not something we can do right now...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Temporal Storage didn’t respond. Ivy lifted her head again, her eyes thoughtful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Maybe Jeff already has something prepared... some experiment... or some power that could control all this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She paused, then asked directly, \"Who is he, exactly?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A long silence followed. Even the air felt still.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[I do not know.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ivy frowned immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What do you mean you don’t know?\" she snapped. \"You’re the one who told us about him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The voice responded calmly,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[I provide answers based on accessible knowledge. Whether I know every individual involved... is a different matter.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silas narrowed his eyes slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That sounds like an excuse.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[It is not,] the voice replied. [There are limitations.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ivy and Silas exchanged a brief glance. Neither of them fully believed it. But they didn’t press further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’It doesn’t matter...’ Ivy thought. ’We’ll find him ourselves.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She straightened slightly. \"For now... saving people comes first.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silas nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And if we go against what Jeff wants...\" he added, \"we might be able to disrupt his plans.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ivy agreed quietly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment... both of them stepped out of the Temporal Storage, returning to reality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silas looked at Ivy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"For now... we should deal with the superior that was once inside Damien’s body,\" he said. \"It’s been too long since we last saw him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ivy nodded. \"Let’s finish him first.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without wasting time, they began issuing orders.

More missions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even as the conditions worsened, floodwaters rising, winds howling, resources thinning, they didn’t stop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They couldn’t.
