It is no wonder that human civilization needs to build transportation systems and invent means of transportation, and if it is not for an immortal species like vampires, the time spent repeating back and forth in several fixed points is a shameful waste of life.

When Zach returned to Paising, Wes was at the entrance to the wizard's lab arguing with a few guys.

Zach sat in for a moment.

"Let me in!"

"Humans can't go in. ”

"You're not human?"

"We are, but we're not just human. ”

"Let me in! or apply for a search warrant!"

"Please, then confirm that the search location specified on your warrant is the Tower of Babel. ”

"You guys!*!I need to investigate what XX (the deceased) did during his lifetime!"

"We've put everything you police need in his house. ”

"You might be missing something!"

"What we've all missed, you're a human cop who can find out?"

"Are you so confident? Remind me why you called the police?"

"Don't be noisy, won't let you in. ”

"Let me in!"

"Humans, can't go in. ”

"You're not human?!"

......

Familiar or not, it should be familiar, in addition to the continuous warming of emotions, the content of the is constantly repeated. If Zach hadn't intervened, probably ...... will turn into a new case.

"It's rare to see you angry too. Zach patted Wes. This is quite pertinent, Wes has always been very to the aliens, well, normal heart. It's the first time I've been in a hurry.

Wes glanced at Zack, "I know they're discriminatory, I'm half of the Demon Banquet's subordinates, and they don't want me to enter their lab!"

"Knowing you're still here**......"

Zach raised his hand to interrupt the wizard's reply, and looked at the wizards who stopped Wes, "I haven't seen any of you." ”

Two wizards took the initiative to stand up and introduce themselves, "XXX Wizard of the Angry Waves" and "XXX Wizard of the Firefly Family". ”

Zach didn't bother to remember, looking at Wes, "Let's go to the West End and go in through the entrance to Remer (Bishop Manor). He pulled Wes and prepared to leave.

"Toledo, not really. The wizard guarding the door seemed helpless.

Zach ignored it and pulled Wes to keep away.

"Alright, you can come in. Get out of the way, not forgetting Zach and Wess as they turned to pass by, "If you see something that permanently traumatizes this human detective, don't blame us." ”

Don't bother.

Zach needed someone to lead the way, and it happened that Sbella came over and said, "Why are you back......!

It was Wes who interrupted, "What's going on at the police station?"

Zach could only explain James one more time. It's a pity that Wes didn't have any alcohol on hand, and Sbella didn't have any on hand, so he gave Zach a layer and lab number, leaving behind two guys who belonged to the Demon Feast...... Go to John? No, Sbella went home.

Yes, go home. Her son, Rivench, was able to return. It's okay to prioritize.

"How did you know that the wizards in the middle were ...... because you were a subordinate of the Demon Feast," Zach wasn't quite sure of the word, but he still quoted, "Discriminating against you?"

"Feeling. Anyway, it takes a while to walk in the tower in this loop, and Weiss doesn't seem to mind chatting, just to distract him from the desire to see what's going on behind the lab doors, "I felt it when I walked to talk, these wizards from the middle of the country have a bad attitude towards me and James. ”

"Oh. Zach replied, if anyone has a constitution that is sensitive to discrimination, Wes should be counted as one. Don't explain it. Zach didn't feel it anyway, "Is there malice?" is asking if there is malice in the discrimination.

Wes frowned and glanced at Zack, "Discrimination is a malicious word!"

Zach shook his head, "No, once upon a time, when slavery was still there, all people with social status discriminated against slaves who had no status. But it was just discrimination, and most people had no ill will towards slaves. Some people are also very fond of slaves, and half of their daily socialization consists of showing off their slaves. Zach tilted his head, "Proud of his slave." Discrimination, but proud of it. Zach looked at Wes, who was confused, "Can you understand what I'm saying?"

"No, you can't. Wes pulled the corners of his mouth and waved his hand, a little irritated, "It doesn't matter, most people in the west also discriminate against the Indians, I don't care." ”

This Zach knew that under the control of the Demon Banquet, the living conditions of the Indians in the west were generally bad, which determined the disadvantage of the social status of the Indians in the west, and it was natural to be discriminated against.

The reason for Zack's malice was actually to worry about one thing—when the Feast and the Wizards reached a peace agreement at Barton, the Central Wizarding Families had not yet appeared.

Harrison wanted to say something to himself at Amilia's birthday party, Polch Quin insisted that the Wizards of the Middle were secretly planning to torture the souls of the wizards in the sanatorium, and Murphy revealed that the Witches of the Middle were fishing for the Asammet clan in the Middle.

Zach is willing to help Sbella deal with the Devil's Feast because of Barton's ten years of peaceful living together and, of course, Alice's relationship. But for the wizard family, be objective, Zach has no feelings for these people. If the wizarding families in the middle of the country have real malice towards vampires, well, including the Demon Feast, Zack doesn't want to get used to it.

Wes didn't think about it so much, so even if it was, Zach didn't ask anymore.

The two of them arrived at the lab that Sbella had told them...... Said to be a laboratory, the library is about the same.

Visually exceeding the specifications of the Barton City Library, the space is filled with bookshelves and workstations for sorting. Zach and Wes needed guidance, and casually pulled a working Reimer, "Which side is where xx (the deceased) worked." ”

Reimer pointed in a direction. Zach had expressed his gratitude, and Wes passed.

"They also said that everything they needed was delivered to the deceased's house!" Wes was a little angry, because there were still a large number of books on the deceased's workbench, as well as the deceased's work notes.

Zach was not as patient as Weis, and would go through the work of the deceased, and once again summon the reinforcing Reimer, "Can you describe the deceased's work?"

Seemingly a good talker, he came, "His job is simple, he looks up books, and then finds out what is about the soul, records it, archives it, and sends it to the ......" Remmer pointed in the direction, "There I am." ”

Zach's thinking, hoping that everyone would follow, "So this is Remer's research project?"

"Sort of. Reimer nodded, then shook his head again, "I'm the caretaker here, and I'm the keeper of these books. He glanced around at the bookshelves around him, "Reimer's research on the soul has never stopped, but for a long time, our research direction has been the way in which the soul and the body coexist. Understandably, Ramer is a half-human, half-vampire, "We've never specifically studied the unilateral Groundbind state where the body is dead. This project was proposed by wizards, and the way the Groundbinders are nostalgic for the world, especially those bound to corpses, may give us a new perspective on the relationship between body and soul. Reimer glanced at the deceased's workbench, "My role in the study of the debinding spirit is only that of a content advisor, and the specific research is carried out by wizards. ”

Reimer pointed in the direction of the other labs away from this library-like space, "My job is to send the knowledge that has been collated here to the wizards in the real experiments. The wizard in charge of the experiment will give new knowledge requirements according to the progress of the experiment. "Take back your hand," I converted into knowledge points that might be helpful, and came back here to continue to be retrieved and archived, and then sent to me to pass on to the wizard, and so on. "Smile," the consultant worked. ”

It's quite long, and to sum it up, it is, "The work of the deceased, or the work that takes place in this library, is the theoretical support of the practice in the research found here." Zach summed it up.

Remmer nodded.

Zach continued, "Can I understand that you are the only person who has a handover between practice and theory in this whole research?" After all, from the process just now, you should already be able to see that obtaining theoretical support and specific experimental practice are separated, and the only link is this consultant.

Reimer nodded again.

Zach raised an eyebrow, "How did Nophile find out that the deceased was gathering research information?"

"I found out. As if to grab credit, Reimer glanced at Wes, who was looking through the deceased's work notes, but his attention was completely on his side, "At first, I also thought that the wizards had assigned this guy to work here, but he was annoying enough. So every time he complained to me that such a job was a waste of his talents, and applied to join the practice group made up of wizards, I directly refused. Ramer shook his head, "After going on for a while, I found out that he no longer asked for a job change, but he still hasn't changed his bad attitude towards vampires and other wizards. "Look at Zach," it's suspicious. ”

It means that a person's behavior suddenly changes, but the accompanying attitude does not change in the slightest. This only shows that this person has not changed, he just has a secret.

"I asked Nophile to keep an eye on him. "Well, he can be credited. The Reimer continued, "Nofiler discovered that he would steal my project notes and take them out of the Tower of Babel after every time he finished his work. Looking at Wes, "The wizard didn't lie to you, what you need, it's really not here." "As I just said, the information stolen by the deceased was brought out.

Wes pursed his lips and dropped his work notes.

"Can you describe what you're doing with the research on the Spiritualization of the Earth? "Zach has read James's notes, and he hasn't forgotten it, and James has also made it clear that the work of the deceased is to sort out the history of the republic. If the logic is correct, the information content that the deceased brought out of the Tower of Babel is related to the history of the Republic. Zach is looking for a relationship between republican history, where research is conducted.

Ramer suddenly laughed and looked at Zach, "I thought this day would never come." ”

Zach blinked, "What?"

"You, Toledo, have finally asked Reimer what research he was doing. Reimer held out his right hand, apparently waiting for Zach to do the same.

Zach did, albeit with some confusion.

"Thorin Remmer. Remer, who has been very attentive to answering Zack's questions, introduced himself.

Zach copied, "Zachary Toledo." ”

"I know who you are. "I've wondered why, for three centuries, you've braved the controversy in the Coalition and sent a lot of resources to Reimer, but never seriously asked, 'What are you doing with those resources?'" ”

Wess turned around at this point and continued to dig through the dead man's notes. Because Wes knew that this paragraph had nothing to do with the case, it was Zach's private matter.

Zach replied with a strange expression, "I asked, and Eve never bothered to explain it to me. Zach laughed at himself, "For a long time, I thought you were studying court tricks, and I don't blame Eve for hating me. ”

"Oh. Thorin's face was also strange, "I guess I should get out of here more and walk outside." "Seems apologetic," there wouldn't have been so many misunderstandings between Toledo and Remer. ”

Zach tilted his mouth, there was something Zach had to confirm, "Sorry, your age?" Zach could feel that this Thorin was a second-generation vampire, but Zach had no impression of this person at all. Zach was able to visually measure the human age of the other party (Reimer has the same age-increasing characteristics as humans), and now asked the other party to tell the age of the vampire to determine if this guy existed when the Thirteen Clans gathered, or if he became a vampire after the Hidden Alliance appeared.

"I am Eve's son. "Smile," "Human physiology, vampire side, I'm her brother." ”

The book in Wes's hand fell. Zach also lowered his head.

"I know, awkward identity. Thorin continued to smile, "That's why I rarely go out and about, resulting in most of the Thirteen Clans being unaware of my existence. I didn't forget to answer Zach's question, "Much older than you." ”

Forget it, there are almost no second-generation vampires in the Federation who are younger than Zack, so Zack shouldn't have any hope and continue to be interrupted by the topic, "Go to the earth and spiritualize?"

"We, in Reimer's research, have never been thinking about this aspect. "We never knew that there were souls in this world who didn't need to go through the state of the Earth Bondage. In the time we lived, the Binding Spirit was always the first state of the soul after the death of a human being, and then various alien races were born out of the state of the Binding Spirit. Including our Maker of eternal life, the Lord joins the Faith Judgment in the Binding Stage to create demons and angels. ”

"From the birth of the soul race after the Holy Lord took control of the Earth Bound Spirits, we can at least draw one conclusion that the gods, whether they are of this world or not, have partial control over the state of the soul. Thorin, picking up a book from the deceased's workbench, the Federal Translation of Five Thousand Years Up and Down - Enlightenment Edition, "This is a republican children's book. "Thorin looked at the book," is a fairy tale that deliberately confuses history and legend. ”

Zach was patient.

"It shows us that the Binding State is not the only way for souls to be transformed, and that is the fact that it is the Republican Alien. "Hand the book to Zack," the wizard said, and the answer was hidden in the history of the republic and the legends of those true republican gods. ”

Zach didn't answer the book, and Thorin didn't force it, "Go to the study of the spiritualization of the earth, from my personal point of view." "Look around this library-like space," is the search for the true God of the Republic. ”

Let's mention it, although Zach doesn't realize it yet, I hope everyone from God's perspective can think of it - to go to the spiritual research of the ground, it is a wizard family in the middle, in order to deal with vampires in the future, and intends to help the number one who is a federal person, but wants to be a ghost (Tam's female follower).

So, don't assume that Thorin is a friend you can fully trust just because Thorin cooperated the whole time, kept a smile, and talked to Zack about the old ones that didn't exist at all. This Thorin is deliberately shifting Zack's focus.
