"Mr. Theodore, you said that you want to cooperate with Muxi Town. I don't understand, where does your confidence in us come from?" Todd looked at the pair of people with different expressions, and thought to them secretly. Are you acting?

The old man picked up a few fruits, stuffed it into his mouth, looked at the angry throat bone around him, and said slowly to Todd: "Maybe you don’t know, it’s not the first time I have come to Muxi Town. On the contrary, I am a frequent visitor here. I have been to the theater in the town and watched the latest dramas; I have also participated in your lectures in disguise; I have also sat on the plank road in the harbor and fished on the seashore with fishermen."

　　 Todd rubbed his brows with a headache, and slanted his eyes to look at the captain of the guard Huggins and the person in charge of the town’s defense Alfonso. The two lowered their heads in shame.

　　 Todd thought, it is really necessary to strengthen the security of the town, otherwise no one knows one day when he will be taken away from him.

　　 Todd sighed and returned his attention to the president of the relief society.

"Don't think I am a bad old man who only knows how to sit in a laboratory. When I was young, I also traveled to many countries, the barbarians in the north, the empire in the south, the holy city in the east..." Theodore looked at the sister hotel There are different styles of decorations, as well as the weird-shaped fire cylinder next to the fireplace, and said with emotion: "However, I have never seen a place like Muxi Town... This place has respect for tradition and innovation. Recognition. Everyone can find his place, and every profession can get the respect it deserves. Knowledge here is the supreme glory, not a snake that fools avoid."

The throat bone looked at the wooden cross hanging on the wall, biting his nails with his teeth, his face distorted: "But this is the territory of the church, Musi Town and the Knights. All these are gifts from the church. I don't think Mr. Todd. Will give up all this!"

　　 Todd glanced at Rachel, Huggins and Alfonso beside him, and said inexplicably: "My faith comes from the Father, not the Pope..."

　　 Theodore's eyes flashed, and he touched his beard seemingly unintentionally.

　　 The throat bone's face did not relax at all, and he said to himself: "It's just an excuse to change the soup and not the medicine..."

　　Theodore pushed aside the dinner plate in front of him, folded his arms around his chest, looked at Todd and said, "Let's talk about the successor."

　　 Todd leaned back a bit, his face expressionless.

　　 "In order to show my sincerity, I would like to talk about the Necromancer first..." Theodore's words drew a loud protest from the throat bone.

"President! This is completely different from the discussion we had before coming here!" The man hiding his body under the thick black cloth said anxiously toward Theodore, "Did you forget? The church is full of despicable people." , Cruel villains! Not to mention that our beliefs are different from theirs!"

Richel stood up, supported his body with one hand, and hammered the table with the other hand: "Short-sighted guy! Shut your mouth! I used to hold the same thoughts as you, but in the town of Muxi These days, let me see a unique sanctuary."

　　 There was no movement in the eyes of the throat bone, but there was no more words.

Theodore looked at the face that was blocked by hatred from all reason, with a moment of regret and helplessness in his eyes, and then said to Todd: "I believe you have understood the origin of the successor, and I will no longer It’s a narrative. Necrotic successors use the bones of the successor as the carrier, and then combine the corpses of different species and ordinary people with them. To this step, although these combined corpses are just a pool of flesh and blood, there will be no Any action. But..."

　　 Todd, who listened intently, followed Theodore's words and asked, "But?"

　　 "We have found a thing, as long as it is combined with the bones of the heirs, these corpses can be reactivated and transformed into the heirs of the undead."

　　 Todd asked: "A kind of thing?"

　　 Theodore smiled and said to him: "Todd, before our cooperation can go further, I hope I can keep some secrets."

　　 Todd felt a little regretful, but he nodded in understanding.

　　Theodore continued: "The Necromancer has most of the alien abilities, and the most amazing thing is that they have childlike intelligence and can understand some simple instructions."

　　 Todd recalled the Frankenstein, and then he muttered for a moment and said, "I have seen that monster. Its appearance seems to have changed?"

"That's right, the necromantic heir you met in Watchtower is one of our earliest experimental objects. Through observation, we did find that it seems to be constantly changing, a bit similar to the mutation of the heir. We I have tried to increase the weight of Sutherland’s relics in the previous experiment, hoping to reduce the speed of mutation. But the facts are completely contrary to our assumptions, the mutation speed of the necromantic successors who received Sutherland’s relics has accelerated..." Theo Touching his beard more, thinking about the scene in the experiment, worry slowly surfaced and raised his eyebrows: "Every day, I always feel that the experimental subject is growing like a child. We even found that it sometimes evades. We, secretly devour the body of the heir..."

　　 Todd pondered the chairman's words carefully, and said in a deep voice, "This is indeed a problem."

"In addition, the growth and actions of the necromancer heirs require a lot of flesh and blood as food. The experimental experience that has not eaten for a long time will appear manic, and even cause aggressive behavior." Theodore looked at Todd and said sincerely: " Of course there are still some things that I will explain slowly when I have the opportunity. But first of all, I want to ask, would you like to cooperate with me?"

　　 Todd looked at the look of the people around him, Rui Qier looked at the guarded face on the other side, Huggins cast a trusting look at himself, and Alfonso closed his eyes with disgust.

　　 "Mr. Theodore, may I ask, how do you plan to use the Necromancer technology?"

　　 The old man did not hesitate at all: "End the war."

　　 Todd looked at each other unexpectedly: "End the war?"

"If you and I cooperate, Muxi Town can create a powerful and controllable army, then we can use this army to suppress all careerists and militants!" Theodore flushed with excitement: " Think about it, we can use this technology to eliminate all threats, deter restless people, and turn the whole world into a pure land free from oppression and discrimination!"

Todd touched the bridge of his nose with his hand and looked at the old man immersed in the beautiful vision. He said with some excruciation: "Theodore~lightnovelpub.net~ Let’s not talk about whether this technology is just. But you really do. Can you control all of this?"

　　Theodore stopped talking and looked at Todd in confusion.

"I once heard a story. In a distant place, there was a famous scholar named Fritz Haber. He invented a weapon-poison gas, which can make people feel miserable and desperate in just a few minutes. In the war, the application of this weapon killed millions of people, including many of his family. And this scholar, the original intention of inventing the poison gas was just out of paranoia Patriotism and hope to end the war as soon as possible."

Looking at Theodore’s astonished face, Todd continued: "So, Mr. Theodore, I understand what you think. But it is not realistic to want to end all wars with one weapon. What's more, you You are an academic, not a politician. You may not understand or even know nothing about the sordid politics and interests of politics. Your achievements and techniques are likely to be used by others to become tools and dominance of slaughter. Murder weapon."

　　 Theodore's throat was dry, and he lowered his head to recall every word of the other party. After a while, he stood up and bowed to the other side: "Todd, you had the opportunity to lie to me, but you warned me with stories."

"Regarding the technique of the Necromancer, I need to think more carefully for a while." Theodore gave Todd a kind smile: "But your sincerity and integrity have allowed me to firm up my original intentions. The cooperation is the right decision."

　　 Todd got up from his seat, walked in front of Theodore, and proactively extended his right hand: "Mr. President, I look forward to your decision."
