Wikipedia does not have much to say about Adrenochrome other than the chemical compound and a few cultural references - Hunter S. Thompson's, "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas" and the book/movie, "A Clockwork Orange." The wiki page does not mention satan/satanic, lucifer, illuminati, sacrifice, or baby/child so there are no references to the topics at hand.
You may dismiss the concept of the illuminati and its supposed demonic power, but that makes no difference when they believe in the force and connection to their god, satan. The fact is, regardless if there is a group that calls themselves by that name, there is certainly a group involved in coordinated and systematic evil. In particular, I'm surprised no one in this thread has not mentioned the connection to Aleister Crowley, a man who supposedly claimed to have murdered over 1,000 babies. His stated goal as a young man was to manifest his connection with lucifer by committing the most horrific evil deeds, including the practice of child sacrifice and consuming the flesh and blood. This is a man paid tribute by the lyrics and/or imagery of the eagles, the beetles, ozzy osbourne, and the rolling stones. Others that I can't think of now.
Though the scientific knowledge of adrenochrome is fairly recent, during the last few decades, I think the practice of consuming the blood of victims, in particular, children, predates the scientific explanation as to why these monsters desire the blood. I think the draw to it is based not only on the Crowlyesque connection with satan, but a chemical reaction that enhances the physical desire. I direct you to the concept of vampirism, Biblical stories of baal and molech, Aztec/Mayan human sacrifice, spirit cooking ala the 71 year-old Marina Abramovic (notice how youthful she looks at 71. That is one of the claims of the Crowley teaching of consuming a child's blood - youthfullness), and even the well-publicized stories of a billionaire named Peter T**** who pays to harvest donated blood from teenagers to give himself transfusions in order to retain his youthfulness.
To me, this is only a very small part of the overall story, and that is a story dating to Genesis 3 when satan said to Eve, "... you will be like God." ES aka Eric Schmidt frequently talks about his brand of immortality, to encapsulate the essence of a person (what Christians would refer to as a soul) into an Artificial Intelligence housed in a metallic/silicon shell. The topics of transhumanism, shift of cultural norms to anti-Biblical definitions, UFO encounters (demonic source), New Ageism, and AI are all attempts to redefine who men/women are in order to counterfeit Genesis 1:26.
Then God said,
"Let us make man in our image, after our likeness."
For several years, I have read and watched material produced by the following list of Christian teachers, who I think provide valuable information that warns of the coming great deception discussed in II Thessalonians 2:1-12. Chuck Missler, Tom Horn, Paul McGuire, Dr. Michael Heiser, Russ Dizdar, Gary Stearman, L.A. Marzulli, Steve Quayle, Dr. Stanley Montieth, Christina and Josh Peck, Sharon and Derek Gilbert, Billy Crone, Bill Salus, Timothy Alborino, and Chris Putman. There are probably others, but these are the ones who come to mind. The common thread of their ministry? They all point back to The Fall in Genesis 3 and The Flood in Genesis 6. If you read the portion of the flood story that discusses the nephilim (the fallen ones) you will find they represent the spawn of fallen angels and human women, the phrase, "and Noah was found to be perfect in his generations" takes on a whole new light. That phrase does not mean Noah was simply righteous and upright in his relationship with God, it means his bloodline was not infected by the satanic attempt to pervert the definition of humanity described earlier in Genesis 1:26. The cross-breeding of fallen angles and humans was a genetic attack on the definition of humanity. One of several attempts by satan to make God's promise in Genesis 3:15 a life. Chuck Missler refers to these as satanic landmines placed throughout history to destroy mankind, prevent the birth of the Messiah by destroying God's Chosen People, then stop the Davidic Line when the Messiah was prophesied, the survival of Israel, the birth of the Messiah, Israel's cry for forgivness in Revelation 11. Think of the stories of Cain/Abel, the flood, Pharaoh’s order to murder male babies, the near collapse of the Davidic Line by Queen Athaliah, the story of Esther, The remnant out of Babylon, Herod's order to kill Jewish males under 2 years, The Crucifixion, the various expulsions of Jews throughout history, and the holocaust. This is/was an attempt to thwart the promise in Genesis 3 of The One who would crush the head of satan (Genesis 3:15).
I will put enmity between you and the woman,
and between your offspring[e] and her offspring;
he shall bruise your head,
and you shall bruise his heel.
Genesis 3:4 says the nephilim were on the earth in that day AND AFTER! But all life on earth was destroyed save those on the ark! This shows the spiritual nature of the nephilim and the so-called "second incursion." I believe this second incursion is still underway and practiced by the likes of hrc/bill, soros, the podestas, jeffrey epstein, roman polanski, the rothschilds, likely some of the rockefellers, the followers of the illuminati, the church of satan, some technologists such as ES, participants in the burning man festival, witchcraft, planned parenthood, many within the UN, and our own government. And I believe human sacrifice plays a role in their devotion - especially that of children as taught by Crowley. By the way, Crowley was a follower of the occultic teachings of Helena Petrovna Blavatsky (theosophy). By the way, many don't know this, but another follow of her was L. Frank Baum, author of the Wizard of Oz.
Speaking of the burning man, I refer you to this 28 minute video from Skywatch TV about the burning man festival and its connection/roots in the technology community in California. SciFriday: Carl Teichrib - Tech and Transformation. One of the comments I found very interesting, that the very first google doodle during January of 1998 was this image honoring the burning man festival.
Another comment was that ES was hired as google's CEO in large part because of his prior connection with the burning man festival.
I pray the mission as described by Q is true and blessed by God, for the sake of our nation, but also for the sake of young children abused worldwide by the malignancy of pedophilia and satanic ritual abuse. May these monsters choke on their pizza, gag on their hotdogs, spew out their walnut sauce, and may the adrenochrome putrefy their carcasses.
I say all of this because as you might guess, the full story is much larger than we can (or likely ever will) recognize, but I'll finish with one more observation. Dr. Stanley Montieth published several books, one entitled, The Brotherhood of Darkness, in which he discusses 10 or 12 occultic/satanic groups and secret societies. For instance the bilderbergers, the illuminati, the rosicrucians, the club of rome, … etc. He concluded his book by noting that all of the groups have one thing in common, and that is they are all honor and are influenced by satan.
Lest we forget at least an over-the-shoulder acknowledgment to the very first radical: from all our legends, mythology, and history (and who is to know where mythology leaves off and history begins - or which is which), the first radical known to man who rebelled against the establishment and did it so effectively that he at least won his own kingdom - Lucifer.
The forward to Saul Alinksy's book, The Rules for Radicals.
