The next day, Sean was invited to visit the Royal Society of Science.

He will be officially registered here as a Fellow of the Royal Society of Science.

At the time of the founding of the Sauron dynasty of the Fifth Empire of Europa, the development of science had reached an age that was eye-catching, and circumnavigation was not a new thing, and people's eyes were not only extended to space, but also to the microcosm.

In addition to the traditional astronomy, physics, chemistry and mathematics, new disciplines such as biology, medicine, electromagnetism, and optics have been established.

At a time when theocracy still controlled people's minds, Campbell founded the "Society of Secret Nature," which was part of his small circle of scholars who secretly discussed the movements of the celestial bodies, animal dissections, and blood circulation, and was once called a witchcraft community by the church, and many of its members were put to death.

Before the establishment of the Sauron dynasty in 1765, people could study science in the open, but there were still taboos, such as human anatomy and the origin of the world, which still caused an uproar.

The association is located on First Avenue at the foot of the White House, not far from Louis Street, where important institutions such as the Executive Yuan, the House of Lords, and the Military Command Department are located.

Inside its gates, taking advantage of the terrain outside the city, there is a beautiful fountain. The fountain is in the shape of a scholar doing an experiment, and water is spurting out of a beaker in his hand.

Next to the fountain, there is a bronze statue in the style of Xia, and the inscription reads a passage on it, which is part of the holy edict of the emperor at the end of the reign of the founding emperor, when he accepted the advice of scholars and founded the Royal Scientific Society:

The task and purpose of the Royal Society of Science is to increase the knowledge of natural things, to engage in all useful skill, manufacture, mechanical work, and experimental inventions, and to examine and record all systems, theories, causes, hypotheses, and experiments concerning nature and mathematics in ancient and modern times, and to compile a complete and rigorous philosophical system for the solution of all phenomena and causes arising from nature or by art.

From this oracle, it can be seen that the founding emperor attached great importance not only to the basic theories of science, but also to practical inventions and creations, and the latter was often more important to the superiors, because there were direct benefits that could be seen and touched.

However, as His Royal Highness the Second Prince said, this association is of a pragmatic nature, and if there is nothing to do, it will hold meetings, eat and publish a journal every year. Of course, members often meet in small circles to discuss the latest results.

Being able to join this association is a kind of recognition and reward for the members of the imperial court, after all, the generous annuity of 1,000 gold louis per year is equal to nothing.

Half of the 1,000-year-old gold is borne by the imperial court, and the other half is paid by the royal family out of its own pocket, with about 200 members, and the royal family will pay 100,000 yuan a year.

Because both the Prime Minister and the Chancellor of the Exchequer believe that these most learned people will help the crown shine brighter and brighter, especially in times of financial difficulties, and the royal family, as the largest landowner in the country, should share in the country.

Sean was actually quite surprised that he was able to become a member of the Association for Science and Technology.

Because he underestimated the sensational effect he caused, and also underestimated the direct benefits brought by the Kang's sterilization method, which was also quite a strong support for the finances of the imperial court.

This is not only a major invention that can directly bring benefits, but also arouses more scholars to be interested in microorganisms, and is also of great significance in scientific theory.

Whatever the scholars say about Sean's education, he did what no one else did—the curved-neck flask experiment itself was a brilliant design, and it proved that others had come infinitely closer to the truth.

Today's ceremony, presided over by the venerable President of Al-Quds University, Robert Palmer, was attended by some of the members of Al-Quds, representatives of the Executive Yuan, including His Royal Highness Philip, the second prince, who is both the nominal president and himself representing the royal family, one of the funders.

Naturalist Babia Dubi was also one of the members, but today he did not come, and it is said that he was ill and could not attend.

As we all know, Professor Dolby is in a very awkward position in the whole wine incident, and he is very high-profile and perfectly sets off Sean's genius contribution.

But there is no denying the great contributions of Professor Dolby in the past, when he discovered several plants that were effective against dysentery, thus saving many people.

Principal Palmer, for example, discovered several chemical elements and founded organic chemistry. However, one of his most significant contributions is the accidental synthesis of urea, which breaks the barrier between inorganic and organic matter. As for him accidentally becoming a researcher of Xia Guo's characters, it was just a hobby.

Being in the same room with these characters, Sean is honestly afraid.

When it was his turn to speak, he modestly stated that he was only standing on the shoulders of giants, and thus could see farther, and that he would not have been able to access the truth without the research of his predecessors and serendipity.

And, Sean solemnly said that he will study hard in the future, and hopes that all seniors will give more advice.

Sean's low profile makes these people very useful, and they are not as proud as they imagined, and they are still a descendant who knows how to respect the old-timers.

At the same time, his proper speech reminded them of his adoptive father, who was said to be a clergyman of broken aristocratic origin, and if you thought about it darkly, he was probably the illegitimate son of a clergyman—a shady affair that often happened against immorality.

In this world and era, the aristocracy and the church have a monopoly on education.

But if it's a farmer's son, Sean may not even be able to read and write, let alone be able to say something appropriate and infallible on this important occasion.

After an enthusiastic speech, the second prince pinned a gold badge to Sean's left chest, with the head of the sage Campbell engraved on the front and the name and date of the recipient engraved on the back:

"Congratulations, Member Sean Connery. ”

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

The guests gave either polite or warm applause.

This was followed by a customary buffet banquet, where all the guests enjoyed the food while listening to the musicians, during which the guests were divided into small groups to discuss topics of interest to them.

Chancellor Palmer enthusiastically introduced Sean to each of the scholars, including their accomplishments.

These scholars are the most knowledgeable people in the empire in their respective fields, but Sean did not develop in the natural sciences in the future, as Principal Palmer thought, he was just stained with the light of his previous life.

He maintained a subtle smile, behaved well, and was polite, even if he did not understand what others were saying, he did not have the slightest impatience, which is said to be the standard when interacting with nobles and high society. This took those who wanted to see his countryman joke by surprise.

On the other side, Professor Victor Bernal, a medical expert, was arguing, his neck flushed with excitement, and his voice was too loud to attract the attention of Xiao Si and others.

He was a physiologist and a brilliant surgeon who invented anesthetics and used them in surgery, as well as performing the first surgery to remove the appendix in human history.

In the course of his medical practice, he first used carbolic acid as a preservative, and later realized that cleaning could be an effective method of embalming, until Sean's Kang sterilization method was introduced.

"Come on, Victor, I'll admit that your anesthetic has some effect, but that's all, chloroform (chloroform) for anesthesia is a great discovery, but the substance itself is highly toxic and unstable, don't you remember that you almost killed your own patient!"

"But I've also saved a lot of people, for example, last month there was a little guy whose calf was rotten to his thigh, and if he hadn't amputated his leg, he would have died. "And God testifies that I have never harmed a normal person, that all my operations, including my experiments, are in accordance with the law and civilized norms, and that at least three people will be present at the scene." ”

"But I heard that your operation was extremely dangerous, and that the little guy almost ran out of his blood, and his family came to you because no doctor wanted to take over. Can you only save the sick who are about to see God?" said someone sarcastically.

"Haha, Bernal only saves the mortal!" several people laughed.

Bernal's face turned red, and Sean saw that he was really aggrieved, and suddenly said:

"Why don't you give a blood transfusion to a patient?"

"Blood transfusion, where does the blood come from?" Bernal replied subtentiously.

"Of course human blood transfusions, such as voluntary donors. Sean said.

At this time, there were many people around, including the second prince.

The second prince said with reproach and surprise:

"Sean, do you know what you're talking about?"

And all the people looked like they had seen something terrible. In the Campbell era 800 years ago, there were also people who studied human blood circulation and did experiments, "killing" many people, of course, all of them were "heretics".

And there is a considerable part of history that thinks that old people will be rejuvenated by the blood of young and healthy people, and there are indeed famous people who have done this, and they all want to keep their youth and wealth forever, and they all end up dying, including a Pope, which of course is not recorded in public literature.

This involves challenging the ethical and moral bottom line of human civilization. In the past, dissecting animals on a large scale would have been considered the practice of shamans, let alone people.

"Young people, don't be ignorant of the heavens just because you have made a major discovery. At the very least, the bottom line of civilization is what our civilized world needs to uphold. Someone ridiculed on the spot, "If you go back 800 years, you will be burned in public." ”

Sean realized he was a little ahead of his time:

"Professor Bernard, I don't know that you haven't used animal experiments on blood transfusions, such as dogs to dogs. ”

"It has been documented in the literature that people have done this, but the success rate has been very small. I didn't even think about it. ”

Bernal replied with a blank slate. Obviously, he had thought about it before, so what he said could be understood as seeing that his ancestors had done it, so he also wanted to do it, but he was less courageous.

Again, bold assumptions are carefully verified. Sean looked around, "Let's use dogs for experiments, Your Highness, this doesn't hurt ethics and morality, right?"

"Not really, but it shouldn't be too much. The second prince replied cautiously, "You must know that there were once rebels who killed a large number of black dogs to sacrifice their so-called gods, demagoguery. ”

"Then we should think about why the failure rate is so high when dogs give blood transfusions to dogs? On the other hand, why is there success? Don't you deny it? So, what are the reasons for failure? What are the reasons for success? Are the reasons for failure the same as the reasons for success? What are the internal laws in this? Isn't science all about finding out the rules?"

Sean's series of questions made everyone have to think, yes, after all, there are successful precedents.

"What do you think?" said Bernal, looking excited.

"Blood type!" Sean said.

"Blood type? Do you mean that different people have different blood types, including animals, and whenever there are different blood types, there will be accidents?" Bernal reacted quickly.

"No, no, I'm just offering an idea, which requires you to prove it or deny it through experiments. Find out the blood types of different people, well, different dogs, how to divide them, I don't know very well, maybe it's just my guess......"

"I see! Thank you, thank you, Mr. Connelly!"

Bernal screamed "miserable", turned and ran, and left the scene in a puff of smoke.

The onlookers looked at each other, although most of them thought it was incredible, but when they thought about it, they felt that this possibility was extremely high.

There are also scholars and doctors who are engaged in related research, and secretly decide to go back and do related research themselves, maybe they will get a major discovery before Bernard.

Facing the staring and suspicious gazes of the second prince and Palmer and others, Sean said:

"I saw so much bloodshed and death on the battlefield, most of the people would not die on the spot unless they were hit in the head and heart, they were lying in pools of blood, and there was nothing the military doctor and us could do but watch them moan, struggle, and slowly drain their blood to death.

At that time, I wanted to transfuse my own blood into their bodies so that they could survive, and then join me in charging the enemy to defend the empire. At that time, I was thinking, if the blood transfusion between people can be successful, how many people will survive?"

This explanation is very reasonable, compassionate, and has the meaning of humane care.

Sean tried hard to squeeze out some tears, but unfortunately he was not good at it, but he succeeded in deeply moving the second prince:

"Salute to the heroes who gave their lives for the Empire!"

Everyone also paid their respects:

"Hail to the heroes of the Empire!"

"Salute!"

"Salute!"
