Come to think of it, Elliot had always been somewhat curious about exactly what relationship existed between [Primordial Blood] and the [Blood Lord].
The [Blood Lord] controlled [Primordial Blood] to seize [Honey]. Elliot had always known that.
He had once thought [Primordial Blood] was a [Vessel] like Elsa's corpse.
But after the [Blood Lord] stopped controlling it, [Primordial Blood] did not seem to lie motionless like a corpse. Instead, it had a will of its own.
This made Elliot wonder whether their relationship was like his relationship with Vanessa.
Elliot could control Vanessa, but when he did not, Vanessa had her own life.
And judging by the prompt on the Difference Engine, it was not the [Blood Lord] preparing to escape now, but [Primordial Blood].

Upward? It was frozen over up there.
Downward? There was a nest of worms below.
There was simply nowhere safe on the entire moon.
Just as Elliot was puzzling over this, a Page Turner slowly rose beneath the [Primordial Blood's Escape] mission.
[Escaping: 10] [Escaping: 9] [Escaping: 8]
Elliot's eyes instantly widened. Damn it, how was it escaping so fast?!
This time, the Page Turner flipped exceptionally quickly. At this rate, he would have no time at all to locate [Primordial Blood]!
Elliot's eyelid twitched. What was he supposed to do now?
Maeve stared blankly at the sea before her, the remaining rationality in her eyes dwindling further and further.
In theory, [Shadow of the Lunar Eclipse] would prevent her from being influenced by her host, but... that was only in theory.
The Difference Engine could let her ability cross many invisible boundaries and forcibly take effect on a Great Being,
