Chapter 343: The Choice of Conscience (79/104)

Ask yourself, if the two of them were in the position of Nobel Doctor, I am afraid it would be difficult for them to face death so calmly.

Eventually, the two of them let out a long sigh and turned to leave Dr. Nobel's laboratory, where they had more important things to do, and could not wallow in the grief in front of them.

Soon, Modesar and Eugen returned to the castle, and after a discussion, Modesal went directly to the task release point of the medical competition, copied the antibacterial formula given by Dr. Nobel, and then printed it in large quantities, and revoked all the other tasks of the medical competition, and only released this one task.

The task requirement is to let all the doctors in Heidelberg City use this recipe and start making a large number of bacteriostatic agents, there is no upper limit to the demand for bacteriostatic agents, the more you make, the better, and each part of the production can be called to the medical competition in exchange for the corresponding reward.

And on the top of each formula, Modesalle added a few words without authorization, that is: Dr. Nobel developed!

On the other hand, Eugen began to pack his bags, and he had to rush back to Verona City with the first batch of bacteriostatic agents to control the epidemic there.

But before that, he had one more thing to deal with.

At night, the dungeon of the Blood Lion Castle looks eerie, when the Blood Lion Castle was built, it was made of a kind of sandstone with a pale red color, and the already dark dungeon with the walls of this color made it look like it was in hell.

And there are still some old blood marks on the walls of the dungeon, I don't know when they were left, and the blood stains on the walls add to the terrifying atmosphere here.

Lubitz and Oakle huddled in a corner of the dungeon with frightened expressions on their faces, and the sconces hanging on the walls outside the dungeon cast rays of light into them, creating shadows that seemed to twist and dance around them.

The two had never been in a dungeon before, and for the first time in their lives, they were so frightened by the atmosphere around them that they were about to pass out, and they were like lambs in a cage waiting to be slaughtered, full of confusion about their unknown fate.

From the beginning to the end, they didn't know why they were arrested, and the only explanation they could give for this kind of misfortune was the curse of Dr. Nobel, but this explanation was really far-fetched, and if it was a curse, why should they be put in prison instead of killing them directly?

Just as the two men were worried about their fate, a sudden sound of footsteps came from the hallway outside the dungeon, and several torches appeared in front of Oaker and Lubitz.

The light of the torches illuminated the gloomy dungeon and the terrified faces of Lubitz and Oakl, who were individually powerless to obey and accept what was coming.

Eugen finally met these two people, and they were the ones who harmed Dr. Nobel, who had plenty of time to conduct human experiments, and he could have chosen other poor people who were unexpectedly ill instead of doing experiments himself.

But now, Dr. Nobel has contracted a fatal disease, and with his talent, he will definitely be able to make greater contributions in the future, and may even create some great achievements, because of these two people, all this will come to naught.

As he walked along the road, anger swelled in Eugen's chest, and he had already thought of a dozen terrible punishments, such as Ling Chi and cannon branding in the Chinese style, and iron virgins and rat punishment in the Western style, all of which were enough to make the most intense pain felt by the mean.

His anger was too strong to be vented in this way.

It's just that all these thoughts, after Eugen saw Lubitz and Oakle as individuals, suddenly all dissipated.

What appeared in front of him was two frightened expressions, they looked at themselves in a panic, shouting the lord and calling the adult, begging to spare their lives.

They are not big treacherous people, just two ignorant fools, unexpectedly at the crossroads of history, in some kind of primitive ignorance and greed, and made the worst choice.

Eugen didn't know what to punish them for, after all, they just reported someone for experimenting with the Black Death, and this was Eugen's own rule, not allowing the Black Death to flow into the Po River defenses, and the two stupid people just followed this rule.

Thinking about it, the only crime that Eugen could bring up was the fact that these two people sneaked into other people's homes, but no matter how severe the punishment for this crime is, it cannot reach the level of the death penalty.

Of course, as a nobleman, as a lord, Eugen has the right to directly execute such a commoner, and there is no need for any reason at all, even if there is any reason, the article "making the noble lord angry" alone is enough, and in such an era, no one will accuse Eugen of anything for this.

It's just that at this moment, when Eugen needed this order, he hesitated.

On the battlefield, he can give an order to kill tens of millions of enemy people, and similarly, he will also cause his soldiers to suffer heavy casualties, at that time, he will not hesitate, because he knows that he is doing the right thing.

But now, he hesitated, he didn't know whether to give the order or not.

As a noble lord, it is understandable to execute two civilians at will, but as a modern person who has crossed over from modern times and has a civilized ideological foundation, Eugen cannot easily overcome this hurdle in his heart.

No one will blame him, but sometimes, people have to face accusations from their hearts.

Oaker and Lubitz, two stupid people with a pitiful look, lay on the ground and kept kowtowing to Eugen for mercy, praising Eugen's greatness and praising Eugen's kindness.

They didn't know Eugen's identity, they only knew that the person standing in front of them had absolutely the right to decide their life and death.

Finally, Eugen slowly closed his eyes, and he thought about this question for half an hour, and just stood there for half an hour.

There are few things that can make Eugen so difficult, and the cost involved in this question may not be much, but for Eugen, it is a crucial fork in the road, and what kind of person he will become in the future may stem from this choice at this moment.

Finally, Eugen opened his eyes, let out a sigh of relief, looked at the two people in front of him and said, "Alas, forget it, each of them breaks one of their arms, just let them go!" ”

After saying this, Eugen turned around and left directly, he had already made his choice.
