Chapter 1729
After Seraphine left, Arwel turned to Dave. "There's one loose end we haven't tied up. Patient Zero is still lying in the hospital room. That's our first research subject."
Dave raised an eyebrow dismissively. 'It should be fine. They won't pay attention to it. Besides, Cascadia's medical technology isn't advanced enough for them to figure it out."
Meanwhile, Wynter was piecing together the broader implications of the situation. She realized that this pandemic was only the beginning.
In her analysis, the foreign powers involved intended to use this crisis to plunge Cascadia-and potentially the world-into a passive state.
From the initial outbreak to regional quarantines, the fallout could spiral into disruptions that would severely hinder Cascadia's development, even causing economic regression.
Having clarified her thoughts, Wynter pulled out her phone and dialed a number.
A familiar elderly voice answered from the other end. "Wynter, if you'd waited any longer to call, I'd have thought you'd forgotten me."
It was none other than Jackson.
Wynter's tone grew serious. 'Mr. Munn Senior, this pandemic could impact Cascadia's development on a massive scale, potentially causing economic setbacks."
Jackson's expression turned equally solemn. "Are you trying to say that foreign powers are trying to use this pandemic to put Cascadia in a passive position?'
"Yes, Mr. Munn Senior. That's my preliminary conclusion, though it may only be the tip of the iceberg," Wynter replied.
Over the phone, Jackson exuded the commanding presence of an experienced leader. "Wynter, tell me what you need, and I'll make the arrangements. I'll also convene a meeting with the higher-ups to share your assessment."
"I'm sure Lucas has informed you about the spy in Colifernia, but for now, that's secondary. What we urgently need is cross-provincial support for the hospitals in Colifernia. The current medical staff and facilities are clearly insufficient.
"Additionally, I'll personally lead a team to develop a treatment for this virus. But I can't guarantee how quickly the results will come. Stabilizing the situation in Colifernia will require a significant influx of doctors from other provinces."
Jackson readily agreed. 'I'll arrange for nearby provincial hospitals to provide support immediately. Just focus on your research. I'll deal with the situation outside. And be careful."
With that, he ended the call and turned to his secretary. 'Get in touch with major hospitals near Colifernia immediately. Request voluntary assistance for Colifernia. No coercion."
The secretary nodded and quickly left to execute Jackson's orders.
