Chapter Twenty-Three: Dr. Cloba's Decision
At the same time, the Tree of Omniscience hides the basement of the "Historical Text", and when Dr. Klopa brings back the news of the suspected presence of a Navy or government agent in O'Hara, a great deal of controversy erupts among the scholars present.
"The 'historical text' has just arrived in O'Hara, and this unknown identity has appeared on the island, could it be that we have been exposed?"
"No, the 'historical text' is a clue that Nicole Orbia found herself, and then sent someone to send it back, can't even Nicole Orbia believe it?"
"Maybe it's just a coincidence? Those two who showed up were people from the navy, who just happened to be tracking down pirates nearby? ”
"Hehe, do you believe this sentence when you say it? In the entire West Sea, who doesn't know the reputation of our O'Hara, not to mention the naval warships that roam the waters around O'Hara all year round, we O'Hara alone only have books and knowledge that are not as valuable as a piece of toilet paper for pirates. Over the years, have you ever seen that pirate risk being surrounded by a Navy warship and fight O'Hara? ”
As soon as these words came out, many scholars who were still unwilling to face the facts just now fell silent.
"These two people, either the Navy or government agents, are now the main problem, and the main problem is that they are not sure which side it is."
"If it's a government agent and it happens to be in O'Hara at this point, then we're in big trouble, and it's not even good to say that this 'historical text' is a trap." Said a middle-aged scholar with round-rimmed glasses.
"If it was the navy, the situation might be better, but it was not for the abnormal ship transporting the 'historical text', so I secretly sent someone to the island to check the situation. This situation is only a little suspicion from the navy, which has not yet risen to the level of the government, and with O'Hara's reputation, it does not dare to move us easily. ”
However, most scholars are almost immersed in research, and when it comes to these conspiracy theories, reasoning about the truth, etc., it is far beyond their ability.
Only one physicist hesitated and said. "Didn't Mr. Vegapunk sign an agreement with the World Government before? If there is an agreement, it should not be the world government, right? ”
"Yes, Mr. Vegapunk is one of the most outstanding scholars today, and the world government needs to rely on Mr. Begapunk's wisdom, so the agreement signed should not be easily violated."
......For a while, the middle-aged scholar wearing round-framed glasses didn't know how to refute it, because as an academic person, he was also very aware of the weight of Mr. Vegapunk in the world government, and in order to get Mr. Begapunk's effectiveness, he casually found an excuse to blatantly surround Mr. Vegapunk's hometown of Organ Island, the future kingdom of Balkimoa, in the context of an uproar in the world.
In the end, he even signed many agreements with Mr. Vegapunk, which brought this scientist, who claims to be 500 years ahead of human intelligence, under the command of the world government.
Among them, the entire academic community is involved in the agreement signed by Mr. Vegapunk, which has a clause: the world government shall not interfere with the normal life, freedom and research of scholars without conclusive evidence to prove that the laws of the world government have been violated.
It was with this agreement that O'Hara Island realized that this was a once-in-a-century opportunity, so it formed an exploration team to go to sea to find the 'historical text', and little Robin's mother, Nicole Orbia, was a member of the exploration team.
Dr. Cloba, who had been standing and pondering for a long time, touched his fan-like beard and said. "The history of the past belongs to 'all mankind,' and no one has the right to prevent the right to know history!" The '100 years of silence' must be made public, and the history of the past, no matter how unspeakable, should not be hidden. If we can't even look at the past directly, how can we create a better future? Even if the old man is sentenced to death by the world government for this, I will not hesitate to do it! ”
"This is the old man's unswerving persistence as an archaeologist!"
As soon as these words came out, Dr. Kloba's firm will to see death as if he were at home deeply affected all the scholars present.
"Dr. Kloba, that's a good point, what if Lao Tzu dies?"
"I have fallen one, and I still have apprentices, apprentices, and thousands of successors!"
"That's right, the old man is the chief scholar of the world government member country "Siham", if you dare to touch you, the old man will ask the king to immediately unite many alliances to protest in the Holy Land. ”
……
"Everyone, please be quiet and listen to the old man!" Dr. Kloba suppressed the gesture and shouted.
As the scene slowly quieted down, Dr. Kloba said. "I am the only archaeologist who can interpret the 'historical text', and although you are the mainstay of various fields in the academic world, you have not played any role in promoting the process of interpreting the 'historical text'."
"We can't expect the promises of the politicians of the world government, even if Mr. Vegapunk indirectly endorses us, but in order to prevent the world government from really jumping over the wall and doing something unreasonable, all of you present are the core figures of the academic community, and there must not be the slightest loss, so we have to prepare for the worst."
"If you can trust the old man, then the old man asks you to leave the tree of omniscience and O'Hara for the time being, and when the old man deciphers the content above this 'historical text', he will share the results with you through the phone." Dr. Kloba said sincerely.
"No, didn't you say before, work together to assist, and share the results? How can you archaeologists be allowed to take risks while those of us get nothing? The middle-aged female scholar who had spoken for Chen Mo's stay said dissatisfiedly. Old man Kloba, although I am a woman, I am not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, and I am not a person who does not dare to shed blood for academics. ”
As soon as these words came out, many scholars immediately denounced Dr. Kloba's "selfish" idea.
"The study of the 'historical text' is the fate of archaeologists from generation to generation for 800 years, and it is also the belief and pursuit of our archaeologists, but you are different, you want to understand the 'blank 100 years' just to be able to get inspiration from it, and it must not be compared." Dr. Kloba said categorically. "The old man is the owner of the Tree of Omniscience Library, so this matter has been decided, and the Tree of Omniscience will no longer accept scholars in other fields except for the archaeological community, everyone, please take care of yourself."
"You old stubborn !!" Suddenly, many scholars burst into scolding. "You've just succeeded as the hall master, why did you drive us away?"
"Kloba Lao Pifu, Lao Tzu doesn't care about any 'historical text', Lao Tzu just likes the research environment of the Tree of All-Knowing and the many collections of books, you can't drive Lao Tzu away!" Some of the grumpy scholars yelled at Dr. Kloba.
"Damn, you old stubborn, don't blame the old man for not giving you incense when you die." There are also certain scholars who "curse" Dr. Klobah fiercely.
……
After a long day of commotion, many old and frail scholars left the basement in anger.
"Alas......" Dr. Kloba said with a helpless sigh to the dozen or so archaeologists who had survived in the basement. Next, our task is to decipher the text on the 'historical text' as soon as possible! ”
"Hey, hey, ask for it!" More than a dozen archaeologists burst out laughing.
