"In the time you've been away, everything has changed. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

Magellan sat next to Sherlock Holmes and looked out at the street through the glass.

This was no longer the Ruidu he remembered, and everyone walking the streets had a certain confidence and longing on their faces, but it did not make Magellan feel anything to be happy about.

The frenzy that has swept through the dark world has long since taken over the city, and now the deeper changes continue.

The New World ignites the fire of desire in everyone.

"Explorer is no longer a term to be feared, and now everyone is proud to be an explorer. ”

Sherlock Holmes rarely wastes time, but this time he represents the hunter.

"The hunters no longer try to maintain the original order of the Dark World, they only want a new order to be established as soon as possible. ”

"And what do they want me to do?"

"I don't know. ”

Although Magellan had expected it, he was somewhat surprised by this answer.

"The hunters don't know how, they just want you not to be on the side of trying to disrupt the order. ”

Sherlock Holmes said and laughed, he knew when the hunter must have been in contact with Magellan again, and he didn't take advantage of it at all.

"At least for now, I don't want to be involved in these things at all. ”

Magellan still remembers the countess's speculation about ancient events, and he has promised Helen to help in this research, so he is not prepared to spend any more time on explorers and the like.

"But you, Detective Holmes, look like you've found a new way to be entertained. ”

Holmes laughed, in fact he was very different from before: "I happen to have a very interesting mystery on my hands, honestly, unprecedented. ”

"Hopefully I'll have your good luck too......"

Magellan sighed and said nothing, Holmes got out of the carriage before him, and the coachman went to the Royal Academy.

The countess was waiting for him.

"We are fortunate that the study of the essence is indeed the most comprehensive," Magellan received good news as soon as he entered the countess's office, "and in the hands of a researcher who is not very famous, there happens to be relevant information, and even an experimental machine." ”

"And what about geologists?"

Magellan was a little surprised, according to his original prediction, the detection method of the essence alone would take a lot of time.

"Every year the Royal Geographical Society sponsors a number of expeditions, and if they are lucky, the next expedition will bring the inspection machine. ”

Everything went surprisingly, and Magellan knew that the Countess was one of the greatest patrons of the Royal Geographical Society, and that every geological exploration team that set out from Ruidu was willing to take an extra mission with her if she wanted to.

"So call me this time?"

"Sir Cook and I would like you to be able to attend an important meeting. ”

Magellan has been surprised too many times today: "What meeting?"

"Internal discussions at the Royal Society on how to deal with explorers and the emergence of new continents. ”

The countess smiled, she seemed to have enjoyed seeing Magellan's headache on his face. The internal discussions of the Royal Society, which were usually the distribution of interests unrelated to research, were full of all kinds of false friendships and endless bickering, and Magellan was already an important member of the Society, and he had no reason to refuse the invitation.

"Don't worry, at least important matters like funding allocation won't be involved, although you will be in attendance. ”

"Thank you. ”

Magellan completely ignored the ridicule on the countess's face that he was just a spectator, and as long as he could avoid the troublesome things of the clumsy scholarly and bureaucratic mixture, it was nothing to be a background.

But he didn't expect that what awaited him at the venue was real trouble.

Sir Cook gave him a warm welcome and ushered the two Magellans into the room, and Magellan found that all the people present were waiting for him.

That included a royal envoy, a dozen prominent scholars, and several prominent patrons of research.

Magellan even saw Arthur the Hunter.

"Welcome, Professor Magellan. ”

Sitting in the chair of the meeting was the hunter, and Magellan was surprised to discover that he was also a royal envoy.

"Let's get started, this time you are invited for an important matter, we need your help. ”

"What?"

Magellan sat in the chair prepared for him, and until now he had no idea what would happen next.

"Explorers. ”

Magellan was silent.

Everyone was silent, and the hunter sat there in silence for a long time, giving Magellan enough time to think about what he had just heard.

"I can help if the society needs it. Magellan felt that Professor was the title he wanted most right now, so he didn't mind helping Professor Cook, nor did he mind helping the Royal Society, "but you have to tell me what to do." ”

"Actually...... countess saved the moment of embarrassment, "that's exactly what we need your help with, what we need you to know about explorers." ”

"What do you need?"

Magellan began to speak in the same way that scholars discussed issues among scholars, and only in this way could he avoid the sense of absurdity in his heart.

But his question drew another awkward silence.

"The New World is of extraordinary significance to botany, Professor Magellan, you can't possibly not know that. A professor finally couldn't help but speak.

"I understand, and then, what do you want the explorers to do?"

"The New World is blockaded and the ships of the Royal Society cannot reach it, but the explorers can get through it. ”

Magellan sighed: "That's because they are essentially loyal to the king of the world, so the rulers of the New World allow them to enter the New World. ”

"We need explorers, or rather, we need tickets to the New World," the countess knew it was time, and although there was no consensus within the Society, everyone was now on the same page, "and it is not necessary to conduct research in strange and faraway places." ”

"You need explorers to help you with all your research in the New World, right?"

"Exactly!"

Most urgently, the Royal Geographical Society and the Society of Biology, both of whom knew that a new continent meant new natural wonders and species, a temptation that no researcher could resist.

"Explorers are mercenary, but beyond that, they love adventure. ”

It's the most basic thing, but it seems that most of the people here, except for Magellan and the Countess, have heard it for the first time.

The isolation of scholars and the blindness of the aristocracy did not surprise Magellan.
