Chapter 277: Order: Divergence
Tang Tu followed Galahat out of the conference room. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
There were still a few people talking in groups in the hallway, and Parsifal was arguing in the corner with a rather young-looking knight.
"Who's that?" Tang Tu asked Galahat.
"That's Sir Lucan, he's the knightly commander, and we all have to do with him." Galahat said.
"It seems that Sir Parsifal is not dead yet," Tang Tu said tentatively.
"He's the temper, and if he can convince Sir Lucan, and get Sir Lucan's support, we can act privately." Galahat said.
"What is a private action?" Tang Tu asked.
"It's official that the Knights are barred from the Whitechapel investigation, but if the Knights Commander agrees to act privately, then there is still something we can do." Galahat said.
"Do nothing on the surface, do you investigate in private?" Tang Tu said, "Sir Parsifal looks very determined, does he already have a goal?" β
"Whitechapel, that's the rebels' stronghold in Whitechapel, and since you suspect the rebels and half-breeds colluding, you have to investigate from there first." Galahat said.
Lafayette walked over, he looked at Parsifal and asked Galahat, "Parsifal wants to enter Whitechapel?" β
Galahada nodded, "yes." β
At this time, Parsifal's face was much better, and it seemed that he had persuaded Sir Lucan, and he nodded to Sir Lucan, and then walked over to Galahat and the others.
"How?" Galahat asked.
"We can go in." Parsifal said.
"Yay!" Lafayette said.
Igrein finished his conversation with the Prime Minister and walked over.
"When are we going to act?" Galahat asked.
"Action? What action? You're not talking about Whitechapel, are you? Igrein asked, "My father..."
Parsifal interrupted Igrein and said, "Your brother thinks it's reasonable for us to conduct a reconnaissance, and we need to make sure we get the right information and the necessary materials. Igrein, take a step to speak. β
Parsifal called Igrein aside for a private conversation.
Lafayette looked at Igrein's back and asked Galahat, "Tell me, sir, about the Prime Minister... Is it true that both Sir Lucan and Lady Igrein were adopted by him? β
"Yes." Galahat said.
"Why did he involve them in such a fight?" Lafayette said, "The work of the Queen's Knights is not easy. β
"Maybe he wanted to recreate a little bit of his lost humanity, too long a life is easy to get lost, and he needs to introduce new life in the process of old and immortal life, so he adopted them. The choice of whether or not to join the Order is in their own hands. Galahat said.
What he meant was that both Lucan and Igrein had volunteered to join the Order.
"Anyway," Lafayette said, "I don't want my children to live like this." β
"Can a knight have a child of his own? I mean, blood... Can I still have my own children after taking Blackwater? Tang Tu asked suddenly.
Galahat and Lafayette looked at Tang Tu at the same time, their expressions were a little blank, and the two of them were silent at the same time and did not answer Tang Tu's question.
Parsifal had finished his work of persuading Igrein and shouted to Galahat and the others, "Guys, we must hurry up and go. β
"Yes, my general! Very happily! Lafayette shouted.
Galahat and Lafayette walked towards Parsifal, and Tang Tu silently followed behind Garahat.
Suddenly, Sir Lucan came briskly from the side and stopped Galahat.
"As a pioneer agent, our friend Parsifal has not listened much to orders." Sir Lucan said.
"As far as I know, he's the best." Galahat said.
"Still, I hope you can... Give him a positive influence. Lucan said quite tactfully.
"Parsifal and I have been working together for a long time, and I can entrust my life to him." Galahat said seriously.
"A little more restraint is never a bad thing." Lucan said.
Galahat nodded.
"Take care of my sister, okay?" Lucan said.
"When Igrein is hot-headed, no one can keep her out of danger." Galahat said helplessly.
"You're right, I'm a brother who doesn't have anything to do with her, don't you?" Lucan was equally helpless.
"I'll watch Ms. Igrein." Tang Tu suddenly interjected.
Lucan glanced at Tang Tu, and then said, "Good luck and good sailing." β
A young man walked away from the end of the corridor, dressed not like a knight, but not a servant either, and Galahat seemed pleased to see him.
"Tesla, you're just in time, do you have a new product?" Galahat patted the young man on the shoulder.
"Yes, always glad to serve, Sir Galahat," said Tesla, "this way, sir. β
Tesla? It's a name that's really resonant...
Galahat followed Tesla into the elevator, and Tang Tu hurriedly followed. Tang Tu is now a trainee knight, and Galahat is his mentor, and he will go wherever the mentor goes.
"Tell me about any new inventions recently?" Galahat asked Tesla.
"There's a lot of interesting stuff, if I may say that." Tesla.
The three of them entered the elevator, Tesla started the elevator, and after a moment of silence, Tesla asked curiously, "Is there any further news about the trouble in Grosvenor Place?" β
"Police are investigating." Galahat gave an official answer.
Tesla hesitated for a moment and asked, "The werewolf is at the front gate of the United Company of India, what do you think about this?" β
"Mayfair is no longer what it used to be..."
Tesla seemed to want to ask, but Galahat's coldness put him off. Tang Tu could see that this Tesla seemed to be very interested in gossip, but he was a bit dull in interacting with people.
The elevator arrives at the station, and this is Tesla's laboratory, where he invented all sorts of things, weapons and equipment, and many other interesting things.
"Excuse me, I have an important experiment to do," Tesla said, "well, in the meantime, you can look around." If you see something you're interested in, feel free to play with it, but be careful. β
Tesla went about his business, and Galahat seemed to be used to his style.
Galahat explained to Tang Tu, "Tesla is an inventor who focuses on experiments. He provided the Order with all kinds of equipment, including our armor and weapons. β
Tang Tu followed Galahat around the laboratory, and most of the things they couldn't understand at all, let alone use them.
Finally, Tesla seemed to be busy with his experiments and remembered to greet Tang Tu and the two.
"Come over here, you two, there's something here that might be of interest to you."
Tesla pulls out a device and hands it to Galahat.
"With this device you can convert between Edison's inefficient DC power and my high-efficiency AC power, which is very good.
If you want to overload and scrap certain electrical systems, it includes an inverter, transformer, and rectifier, equipped with some brass clips to enhance the effect. Oh, and there's also a delicate leather suitcase.
Oh, and there's a small amount of mercury inside each tube, and when the mercury in all the tubes is perfectly aligned, the unit is in operation. β
Tesla taught Galahat how to use the device, "Try it..."
Galahat, under Tesla's guidance, easily destroys a set of electrical appliances.
Tang Tu summed it up by himself, this is a special prop for destroying electronic equipment, eliminating the destructiveness of bomb blasting and quietly reaching the goal.
"You always surprise people, Nikolai." Galahat praised.
Sure enough, the prototype of this NPC is Nikolai. Tesla. A very famous inventor in the history of mankind.
"Please come with me, I have something to show you, and I hope you can give me a little expert advice on this whimsy."
Tesla led Tang Tu and the others to a test bench.
"Essex 84 shooter carbine." Galahat recognized the gun on the test bench.
"Handmade." Tesla said.
"Impressive."
"You've always had a good eye for craft. I equipped this guy with a scope, and it's perfect for shooting at long distances. If you can test it for me..."
"Of course, it's a great honor, and it's a pleasure."
Galahat picked up his sniper rifle and fired a few shots at a distant target.
"Have you considered adding a muffler?" Galahat said.
"Yes, I've thought about adding a muffler," Tesla said, "and it's done, I'm going to add it now." So, who else would you like to know among my children? β
"It's an attractive proposition, but we have to go back to the others, there are new tasks waiting for us to go." Galahat said.
"Of course," said Tesla, "oh, the monocular that General Lafayette asked for is over there, on the table." β
Tang Tu got closer, picked up the monocular on the table and handed it to Galahat.
Galahat looked at it and said, "I'll give it to General Lafayette myself." β
Leaving Tesla's laboratory, Tang Tu followed Galahat to meet Parsifal and the three, and the five got into a carriage.
Once in the car, Parsifal began to distribute tasks.
"We split into two groups to search. Igrein, you and Lafayette start at the southern end of the mall. Galahat and I, along with our newcomers, started at the North End. Parsifal said.
"Why don't you send the French to Galahat?" Igrein seems to be very unhappy with Lafayette.
"Madame is doubting my purpose?" LafreniΓ¨re asked helplessly, "I promise to always maintain a chivalrous demeanor." β
"I'd rather have someone more experienced to take care of each other." Igrein said.
"I thought you didn't need someone to take care of you, well, Lafayette is partnered with Galahat." Parsifal said.
"Maybe one day the lady will allow me to show my skills." Lafayette said.
"Let's talk about it." Igrein didn't even look at Lafayette.
"Remember, we're about to enter rebel territory, and the traitors won't open the door to welcome us into Whitechapel." Parsifal said solemnly.
"Based on what we've found in Mayfair, London hospitals are our number one target." Galahat said.
"It's really strange that werewolves would use it as a refuge." Lafayette said.
"Could it be that there is a problem with the hospital?" Tang Tu suddenly interjected, "I mean there may be a problem with the doctors and nurses, they feed or inject strange drugs into patients, and then turn patients into werewolves. β
The four of Galahat were stunned for a moment, and then all four burst into laughter.
Lafayette hugged Tang Tu and rubbed his hair fiercely with one hand, "Ahaha, I'm laughing to death, I deserve to be a newcomer, I can even imagine this kind of thing." β
"Ahem," Galahat seemed to laugh enough, and explained to Tang Tu, "The so-called werewolves are half-bloods, they are all born, they have existed and multiplied in this world for centuries, and I have never heard of anyone being able to create a werewolf with medicine. β
Tang Tu secretly rolled his eyes helplessly, obviously there are often scenes of such scientific madmen changing human genes in literary works and film and television works, and it is obvious that these NPCs have too little knowledge.
The four of them finally had enough laughter and continued to discuss the matter this time.
"Do you really believe that the rebels are in collusion with the half-bloods?" Igrein asked.
"The Prime Minister is so convinced," Mr. Parsifal said, "but I still have doubts. β
"Have you ever trusted anyone, my general?" Lafayette asked Parsifal rhetorically.
"Be unconvinced, be skeptical. That's my style. Parsifal said proudly, "and my motto for centuries." β
Tang Tu took a breath. These knights have lived for centuries, and they are really old monsters.
In silence, the carriage reached its destination, and the five men got off one by one.
Again, Parsifar admonished everyone, "Everyone be vigilant, maybe this time it's a hot potato." β
Lafayette stretched, "Ah, what a pleasure! β
Standing at the entrance of the street, five people looked at the empty street.
Parsifal stood at the front, "This is now a den of pickpockets, pimps, and collaborators, and I have seen it look different. β
Parsifal and Igrein went first.
"A lonely chapel towers over it, providing shelter for travelers. It existed even before my time, when even the walls had not yet been erected. Galahat said with emotion.
"We haven't seen Whitechapel yet, but we can already smell it." Lafayette said, sniffing.
Tang Tu and the three trotted up, and soon caught up with the two Parsifals in front, who seemed to be blocked by obstacles.
"Everything is different from what it used to be, Parsifal." Galahat told Parsifal that he was still feeling the change in the place.
"That's right, especially the Order." Parsifal whispered suddenly.
Galahat didn't take Parsifal's words to heart, but Tang Tu remembered them.
Working together to move away from what stood in the way, Parsifal and Iglin and Tang Tu embarked on different paths.
At the beginning of Linfen, Parsifal reminded everyone, "We meet at the hospital and stay vigilant. (To be continued.) )
