And perhaps she could also meet that woman with the JoJo-esque art style, the strongest Heavy Defender of Arknights since its launch—Saria, Father Saria.
Led by Ifrit, the two arrived at the Medical Department. Due to Ifrit's special circumstances, her ward was far from the crowd, and few people passed by. Upon opening the door, they saw two people in Operator medical uniforms standing inside. Seeing Ifrit enter, the Liberi in front was about to criticize her for playing outside for so long alone, but then she saw Kanna at the door.
Silence's eyebrow twitched when she saw Kanna, mainly because before entering, Kanna had deliberately pulled out her work ID from her embrace and hung it on her dragon horn, ensuring the other party would see it at a glance.
Sure enough, the first thing Silence noticed when she saw Kanna was the work ID hanging on her head, which only Rhodes Island Operators possessed.
"Hello, I'm Kanna!" Kanna raised her hand to greet them when she saw Silence and Ptilopsis looking over.
Ptilopsis paused for a moment before speaking, "Kanna, Rhodes Island Operator, directly subordinate to Rhodes Island's highest administrator, Kal'tsit, and leader, Amiya. Confirmed intelligence indicates that the individual belongs to Rhodes Island's Internal Security Department, S.W.E.E.P. She uses Originium Arts of lightning magic, specializing in breakthroughs, escort, and assault. Her reputation among Rhodes Island Operators is excellent, but her reputation in the cafeteria is extremely poor, ranking first on the blacklist of all Rhodes Island cafeterias."
The information Ptilopsis provided was Kanna's publicly available information, which most Operators could access. Much of it was vaguely worded. If anyone truly believed this information and tried to set a trap or ambush Kanna based on it, Kanna would probably be overjoyed.
Ifrit's eyes widened when she heard Ptilopsis's words. Although Kanna had been boasting about how amazing she was the whole way there, Ifrit hadn't believed a single word. But coming from Ptilopsis, it was different.
"Hello, Kanna. May I ask what brings you here?" Hearing that Kanna belonged to Rhodes Island's Internal Security, Silence's heart tightened slightly, and she cautiously inquired about her purpose.
Kanna pointed at Ifrit, "I don't know! She brought me here. She said she was taking me to see Doctor Silence."
Hearing Kanna's words, Ifrit immediately nodded as Silence looked at her, "Yes, yes, that's right, I brought her. Silence, didn't you say you've always wanted to thank the Operator who saved our lives at the Lookout Tower? Kanna says it was her."
Silence was also very surprised to hear this. She hadn't expected that the person who discovered them and notified Kal'tsit to send people to rescue the three of them was such a child.
As a Doctor, she examined the other party and found no signs of oripathy exposed on Kanna's body. However, logically speaking, such a young child, unless through bloodline inheritance, shouldn't possess such strong abilities. Ideas of human experimentation immediately appeared in her mind.
Seeing Silence's gaze, which was that of a Doctor observing a patient, Kanna guessed that the other party had misunderstood. She rolled up her sleeves and made a strong expression ┗|*｀0′*|┛
"Kanna is not Infected!"
"What!" Silence looked at her in surprise. To be an Internal Security member of Rhodes Island among so many Elites, Kanna's strength must be even more formidable than she appeared, yet she claimed not to be Infected.
If she wasn't Infected, how could such a young child use lightning-based Originium Arts?
"Can you find Kanna's medical report?" Silence asked Ptilopsis.
Ptilopsis shook her head, "Operator Kanna's medical report is top secret. Only Doctor Kal'tsit and Doctor Warfarin can access it. Furthermore, there is no information about Operator Kanna in any of Rhodes Island's treatment records. There is indeed a statement in Operator Kanna's public information indicating that she is not Infected."
Ptilopsis's words made Silence pause for a while. Although she trusted Kal'tsit, due to some matters at Rhine Lab, she naturally felt a slight aversion to leaders of medical groups.
However, "Mr. Blood" Warfarin gave her a much better feeling. When they first met, knowing that the other party was a Sarkaz blood demon instinctively made her uncomfortable, but Warfarin later conquered Silence with her profound understanding and research achievements regarding oripathy, becoming a somewhat unreliable but knowledgeable and experienced senior oripathy treatment specialist.
If she could vouch for Kanna not being Infected, then this girl in front of her truly wouldn't be Infected. After all, the lie of whether one is Infected or not is too easy for them, as oripathy treatment specialists, to discern. Rhodes Island wouldn't do something so foolish as to cover its ears while stealing a bell.
As an oripathy treatment expert, Silence couldn't resist reaching out and touching Kanna's face. After all, although she had heard "legends" of non-Infected individuals being able to use Originium Arts, as a believer in science, she had never believed them before meeting Kanna.
Even without testing, from a simple initial physical examination based on appearance, Silence found no signs of oripathy infection on the other party. Unless all of the disease progression was internal, such a "clean" Infected person would not appear.
She somewhat wanted to see Kanna's medical report, hoping to find a new path for Ifrit's treatment from it.
Kanna looked at Silence, whose expression was fluctuating, and said, "I heard Amiya say before that you were involved in Rosmontis's emergency rescue after she was saved and provided great help for her survival. On behalf of Rosmontis, I thank you. If you need my medical report, you can directly ask Doctor Kal'tsit. For Doctors who genuinely want to cure oripathy, I believe Kal'tsit will not conceal information about my body."
Silence's eyes showed understanding after hearing this. She knew Rosmontis. Just recently, she had received an urgent notification from Warfarin, asking her to participate in the rescue of a patient, given her expertise in emergency treatment for oripathy patients.
When she saw Rosmontis at that time, her life was in critical condition, and her Originium Arts were uncontrollably resisting everything around her. Several Caster Operators had to intervene to barely suppress her Originium Arts. Then, Warfarin and another Doctor (Perfumer) immediately rushed in to inject sedatives, allowing the subsequent emergency treatment to proceed.
It took them over an hour to pull the patient back from the brink of death. That joint emergency rescue also gave her a deeper understanding of Rhodes Island's medical standards. Not only were they not inferior to Rhine Lab, where she had previously worked, but the Doctors' attitudes towards patients were also much more harmonious than at Rhine Lab.
