"You're a scientist?"

Hearing Kentucky's brief self-introduction, Galen was immediately interested.

The frail middle-aged man in front of him, with dull eyes, black bags under his eyes, messy hair, and who looks like an Internet employee in the 996 mode, suddenly has a little more clever and wise temperament in Galen's opinion.

Galen asked with some interest:

"Did you invent the steam engine and breech-loading rifled gun on that ironclad ship?"

Seeing the expectant look in Galen's eyes, Kentucky silently shrank his head, and then replied embarrassedly:

"It's not."

"Those things are the invention patents of the captain of the Iron Pirates."

"Uh..."

Galen's mind flashed to the sturdy image of a three-meter-tall man holding a giant axe.

"This is really unseemly..."

Galen covered his face helplessly:

At that time, he saw the appearance of the enemy captain as a brainless thug, and took off the opponent's head without saying a word.

The wonderful plan to vigorously develop the science and technology industry and stride into the industrial society died in this way.

"Wait."

Galen asked the cautious Kentucky with curiosity:

"Since you didn't invent the technological products on that ship, then what kind of scientist are you?!"

In order to ensure his safety in front of the leader of an unknown armed group, Kentucky is in a hurry to prove his abilities:

"Of course I'm a scientist!"

Talking about his profession, Kentucky, who has always been in high spirits, finally showed a bit of the brilliance of a scientific and technological elite, and his deep and weak voice became louder:

"The things on that ship are so backward that they can be considered high-tech?"

"Compared to my level of research, that kind of thing can only be scrapped into the garbage heap of history."

This powerful performance once again gave rise to a lot of expectations from Galen:

Indeed, the steam engine is not very high-tech for the pirate world;

While most of the pirates still use ancient sail warships, a small number of elite characters have even developed black technology such as submarines, robots, and laser cannons.

So, Galen asked expectantly:

"Can you build more advanced warships and artillery?"

"No, no."

Kentucky's face flushed slightly, but he cautiously explained:

"I'm a scientist, but my research is limited to biology and chemistry..."

"You..."

Galen was slightly surprised, and a look of disappointment immediately appeared on his face:

"Why are you a scientist still divided into disciplines?!"

Although there are differences and connections between the various sciences on the earth, corresponding scientific systems have been established, such as mathematics, mechanics, physics, chemistry, biology and so on.

With the increasing perfection of the human knowledge system and the deepening of scientific research, even the leaders of the academic world can only specialize in their respective fields, or exert their talents in the fields where some disciplines are integrated.

But what is well known is:

In another world, scientists are basically not divided into disciplines.

A good scientist can launch satellites and manned aviation, study viruses and strengthen the human body, and can also serve as a network hacker and programmer.

Just like the commander of Jerma 66, Vince Mock Gaji, who can not only engage in biological cloning and genetic modification, but also invent combat uniforms and flying shoes, completely ignoring the restrictions of disciplines, is simply an enhanced version of Dr. Asasa.

Scientists like Kentucky who open their mouths and say that they only specialize in a certain field...

"Obviously a second-rate scientist!"

Galen was disappointed to give Kentucky a final conclusion.

Kentucky's face darkened, but he didn't dare to refute Galen's vulgar words.

Galen thought about it carefully and asked again:

"Since you don't know anything about weapons research, what are those pirates kidnapping you for?"

As the leader of an armed group, Galen's brain was also quietly infected with a kind of "military supremacy", and he immediately thought of violence from Kentucky's profession:

"Are they going to let you develop a gas bomb?"

Galen's first thought was of the gas bomb that Crick had used, but immediately thought of the more horrific application of biochemistry to weapons with the knowledge of a modern person:

"Or... Those pirates are ready for you to research biological weapons? ”

"Anthrax, cholera, smallpox, typhoid, plague...?"

Kentucky shuddered to listen.

Although he was an expert in the field, he had never had the idea of weaponizing disease, and there was no scientific institute on the sea engaged in such research.

However, after following Galen's train of thought, expert Kentucky immediately figured out the horror of this biological weapon:

Cheap, efficient, hidden, with a great area effect, you can slaughter a city and destroy a country with a raise of your hand.

"Of course not!"

Kentucky looked at Galen with some cringe, his eyes full of fear as if he were looking at a demon:

How could you have such an idea? That's horrible, too! ”

"This..."

Galen closed his mouth a little embarrassed, and his face became a little solemn:

When it comes to the art of killing, the performance of earthlings is even more terrifying, ruthless, and dehumanizing than these people from other worlds who live in the shadow of swords and swords all day long.

And in the war on Earth, such cruelty is even more vividly exerted by those war madmen.

"Ugh..."

Galen shook his head, and simply stopped thinking about biological weapons.

He turned the subject back and asked Kentucky:

"In that case, why did those pirates kidnap you? Is it for ransom? ”

"Uh..."

Speaking of this, Kentucky's face couldn't help but show an embarrassed look:

"Actually, I turned out to be a senior researcher hired by a certain country in Beihai."

"Then there were some conflicts at work, and I couldn't continue that job, so I had to go back to my hometown alone."

"And then?"

Looking at Kentucky who entered memory mode, Galen also cooperated as a cheer.

"And then..."

Kentucky said with some indignation:

"Because my previous employer was so bad, I didn't get a dime back from my salary."

"I'm so smart, I've worked hard for so many years, but when I return to my hometown, I'm still a poor bastard!"

As he spoke, the expression on Kentucky's face became more and more resentful:

"But I didn't get discouraged, I just continued to do the research that I was interested in."

"In the course of my research, I occasionally synthesized a strange substance!"

Kentucky's eyes lit up:

"This kind of synthesis is incredible!"

"It can not only relieve pain, analgesia, anesthesia, relieve cough and asthma, but also make people feel refreshed and vigorous."

"Uh..."

Galen silently looked at Kentucky's dull face, and immediately had great doubts about the efficacy of Kentucky's propaganda.

"The most important thing..."

Kentucky just seriously introduced:

"If you add this substance to your fried chicken, you will make people want to eat it and want to eat it!"

"So I opened a fried chicken restaurant in my hometown and made a fortune again with this technology."

"But I never thought that because the fried chicken I made was so delicious..."

Kentucky bitterly recalled:

"Those pirates took me and made me their ship's cook!"

..................................................................

Dinner time.

Kentucky managed to join Galen as a scientist.

At dinner, Galen also asked the great scientist to serve him the Kentucky fried chicken, which is said to be "robbed by pirates".

And the dining together was Miss Nami and Princess Vivi, who had heard the news and were looking forward to it.

But after some anticipation, Kentucky presented the three diners with a fried chicken that didn't look very good.

Seeing the fried dark yellow skin, Nami from a poor family didn't react yet, but Weiwei, who had been dressed and fed since childhood, had already quietly frowned.

But seeing Nami and Galen, who didn't show disgust, Vivi still suppressed the little princess disease, took the initiative to pick up a piece of fried chicken and put it in her mouth and tasted it.

"The taste is average..."

Weiwei still said the most honest reaction.

Nami also ate a piece of fried chicken and then made the same opinion as Vivi:

"It's so-so, indeed."

"This level of cooking is not as good as mine!"

Nami also showed off her cooking skills in front of Galen.

"But..."

Weiwei, who continued to eat fried chicken in the spirit of not wasting food, found the difference of this fried chicken:

"It's really strange, this fried chicken makes people feel refreshed!"

As she spoke, Vivi's eyes turned psychedelic and bright, and her pink cheeks flushed with excitement.

And the same situation happened to Nami, and it seemed that the whole person had really become energetic.

"What's the situation?"

Galen glanced at Kentucky on the side with great puzzlement: "Does this fried chicken really have a refreshing effect?" ”

"Of course!"

Kentucky triumphantly pulled out a small bag of unidentified white powder from his bosom:

"As long as you add my secret seasoning, you will definitely make people want to eat it!"

"This..."

Galen looked at what was in Kentucky's hand, and thought of a series of effects such as "cough suppressant, analgesic, and anesthetic" that Kentucky had advertised before...

His pupils shrank suddenly, and he couldn't help but ask:

"Kentucky, you can't have extracted this thing from some kind of plant, right?"

"Can you even guess?"

Kentucky was even more excited, and said to Galen:

"That's right, it's the product of pure natural plant extracts!"

"Not only is it natural and healthy, but it also has all kinds of amazing effects, and I can't live without it now!"

“......”

Galen's face was gloomy, and he was silent:

It's no wonder that the pirate captain who was worth 50 million before and the current Kentucky body are so weak, it turns out...

“MMP!”

Galen couldn't help but swear words, and with another punch, Kentucky, who had not yet recovered, was beaten into a seriously ill injury again:

"You actually poisoned the chicken!"
