Chapter 136: The Reason for the Disappearance
"Are you kidding to want a piece of the government's interests!"
Professor Beddoley's eyes widened, and he jumped up from the couch in shock, his arms trembling on the coffee table, and his mustache stood up in fright under his nose.
This reaction was expected by Bill, but at the moment he just wanted to laugh at this startled expert professor, how about a piece of the pie with the government?
As long as coal cores can be mined in large quantities and new energy can be promoted, the government and the group of capitalists will be able to earn astronomical gold in the next few hundred years, but if this matter is leaked to the Oude Holy See, they will not make any money!
Don't forget that since the Brotherhood can pay Williams Black Mist, it means that the Brotherhood must also have a corresponding organization behind the mysterious world as a backer.
And they chose to hide the matter of the coal core, did not take the initiative to expose the relationship between the coal core and the mysterious force, and used the intelligence of the coal core mining as a means to make money, which shows that it ......
The Brotherhood and the organization behind it want to get past the O-German Holy See and monopolize the enormous benefits of the coal core.
This also shows that the information that the Brotherhood bought for the Norman Royal Academy of Natural Sciences will definitely not be true!
"Hehehehehehe......"
"You can go back and tell the government that if they don't agree with my proposal, not only will they lose their coal core forever, but they will soon be overthrown by the nobles who are trying to restore it. ”
"The Holy See doesn't need disobedient rulers, let alone rulers who are likely to get out of control, and then you people who know the secrets of coal nuclei will all die!"
"You're all going to die!"
Arrogant shouted, Bill's crazy face approached the completely panicked old man, and the crystal goblet was suddenly thrown into the fire by him, and the blazing firewood instantly swallowed everything.
"Crazy, you must be crazy!"
"What are you talking about, what are you talking about, we are not wizards......"
Forced to take two steps back by the aggressive momentum, Professor Bedoli sat down on the sofa, throwing away layers of status, he was just a defenseless old man.
"I, we just want to push innovative technology and promote social progress, why would the Holy See kill us because of the study of coal cores?"
Over the age of 60, he is still working for the Norman Royal Academy of Natural Sciences, with a salary that is not very high, and he travels from city to city or country.
It's a pity that he didn't get the respect he deserved.
That's true. ”
"You're not a wizard, you're just an old and socially influential ordinary person, and it just so happens that because you're all ordinary people, you're always living in a dream. ”
"Do you choose to believe me, or do you want to contact the Brotherhood that has disappeared without a trace, and go and talk to the Prime Minister, and he will know what I'm talking about." ”
Rubbing the bills neatly on the table, Bill took them in one hand and turned up the stairs to reach the corner of the stairs before shaking the hand holding the money at Professor Beddo.
"I'll take the hush money first, go back and talk to your puppet prime minister, if he still wants to sit in that position, it's best to choose to cooperate with me." ”
"You can't be too greedy. ”
With a final word of advice, Bill disappears around the corner of the stairs.
Leaving the villa in despair, Professor Bedoli was still carrying an empty suitcase, and after only a brief exchange with Bill, he was subjected to a huge amount of remarks that directly affected his worldview.
He didn't see Dr. Brigg, and he didn't bother to ask why Dr. Bragg didn't wait for him to leave.
Filled with chaotic thoughts, Professor Bedley left the mountain villa, rented a carriage from the town, and hurried back to the headquarters of the Royal Norman Academy of Natural Sciences as fast as he could.
He needed to talk to the Dean right away to see how much of Bill's words were true, and how much of them were just to deceive them......
After seeing off Professor Beddory, Bill locked himself in his bedroom, closed all the curtains, and carefully lit only a single candle.
The candlelight flickered, and the silhouette of the shadow on the ground became more pronounced, trying to control the shadow connection consciousness, but Bill felt nothing.
He began to panic, biting his fingers again, squeezing out a drop of bright red blood.
"Snake venom will cause my blood to turn red as well?"
"Hey, hey, come out, come out quickly! You bad guy, what the hell is going on?"
Lying on the ground and struggling to tap the shadow, the shadow slowly opened his eyes and yawned lazily for a long time.
"What's the matter, Bill, I just got a good night's sleep, is there any trouble?"
The appearance of Shadow Bill reassured Bill for a while, he knew that his abilities had not disappeared, but he had fallen into a deep sleep, but he also knew more about snake venom.
Why snake venom would make him unable to use his powers, how long it would last, and whether he would need any other way to recover, Bill was eager to know.
At the same time, he also wants to share with the shadow the wealth and joy he has just received.
"You know, we just got a huge sum of money, a whole 30,000 gold pounds!"
"You know how it feels like we're making so much money in the 18th century, I'm going crazy with joy!"
Laying the bill on the floor and looking at the shadows excitedly, Bill swore he had never been so excited, that the money was an unexpected surprise, and that the long-term benefits behind it could no longer be measured by numbers.
"Well done, Bill, tell me how you got so much money all of a sudden, could it be that the careful-eyed sheriff found out he had misunderstood you and sent you money to apologize?"
Shadow Bill clasped his hands around and listened with interest to what would make Bill happy, and then it listened to what had just happened in the villa, its eyes narrowing into two slits.
"Bill, I have to warn you. ”
"There's nothing wrong with intimidating the ordinary people at the research institute with the worst outcome, and there's nothing wrong with wanting to make money with coal cores, but do you really plan to get involved in coal mining research and development?"
"With your reminder, the government and the Academy continue to study occult forces in the concealment of the Holy See, which, in the eyes of the Holy See, is Norman's challenge to the dominance of the Holy See. ”
"Then you, the wizard who helps ordinary people in society study mysterious powers, will be the first person to be eliminated by the Ode Holy See!"
"Then the Norman government and the research institute, all the people related to the coal core, will become the evil wizards who study evil witchcraft in the mouth of the Ode Holy See. ”
"All the useless are burned out, and the useful become prisoners of the Holy See who will never see the light of day, and continue to study coal cores for the Holy See. ”
The Shadow said these words calmly, and for the first time it analyzed the pros and cons of things for Bill, and waited quietly for an answer after speaking.
"That's why we have to hide that the mining of coal cores will cause the miners to mutate, and it is impossible for the Holy See to send people to inspect the mines without their knowledge, don't they prefer to stay in the cities and in crowded places to preach?"
"I didn't say that I would declare war with the Oude Holy See, anyway, I have a safe mining method in my hands, as long as there are no more miner mutations, then the Oude Holy See will not find out. ”
Bill patiently explained that although he had just appeared arrogant and frivolous when he was downstairs with Professor Bedley, it did not mean that Bill was talking nonsense without thinking.
He lay on the ground, and Bill briefly enjoyed the sensation of direct touch, though he only touched the floor beneath the shadow.
And Shadow Bill, still with a solemn expression, spoke slowly.
"Bill, you probably don't know about my efforts to help you hide your identity as a wizard during this time, but Brittus is different today. ”
"The arrival of a man from the Holy Land of the Holy See of Ode is a nightmare that all witches and witches do not want to encounter, so I take the opportunity of snake venom to let the witches of the witch village help you temporarily suppress your power. ”
"As long as I'm asleep, hiding in the depths of the distant shadow space, he won't be able to see that you're a witch, but that also means that you'll be very vulnerable during this time. ”
"But in order not to make us disappear, to prevent us from becoming hunting targets for the Holy See and the Witch Hunters' Society, we must all do so before he leaves. ”
"Because the degree of tolerance of the Holy See for wizards is zero. ”
