The pretentious words you said earlier were all nonsense. Only the last sentence is your true thoughts, isn't it?
Yue Sefu's lips twitched. Looking at the smiling Andrew in front of him, he couldn't help but clench his fists.
Even if the entire process was laid out clearly in front of you, you scholars wouldn't understand what it meant. Therefore, the entire laboratory was extremely safe — that was what this fellow was trying to say!
But he had to admit … his words were crude, but the logic behind them was not.
Not to mention walking around outside, even if they were allowed to enter the laboratory and observe, touch, and touch at close range, they probably wouldn't be able to understand what these instruments were doing …
Andrew's ugly, condescending face in front of him was precisely the reason why the Truth Society was irreplaceable.
If the Luo Er Resources Development Company monopolized resources, then the Truth Society monopolized knowledge.
And it wasn't just ordinary knowledge, but top-notch knowledge that Extraordinaires from other fields would never be able to understand.
The scholars of the Truth Society did indeed have the right to be proud.
From top to bottom, Extraordinaires of all levels benefited from this. Some of the low-end products in the process of research and development were widely used, causing the lives of ordinary people to undergo huge changes and improvements.
What was even more frightening was that not only did they monopolize knowledge, but they also monopolized the people who created it. Remember this: http://m.9biquge.com
Although the Truth Society didn't even have a god-level scholar, there was no doubt that the Truth Society had a huge impact on the entire Nuo Jin.
Yue Sefu naturally wouldn't fuss over the other party's pride … After all, he couldn't just punch the Vice President of the Truth Society in the face.
If he did so, the Truth Society would immediately go to war with the Secret Ritual Tower.
Fortunately, Andrew was someone who knew his limits. He laughed and said, "I'm just joking. I hope Your Excellency Sacred Flame won't be angry because of this. Otherwise, with my scholar body, I won't be able to take a punch from you."
Yue Sefu narrowed his eyes and chuckled. "Although I do want to do that … with your current prestige, I'm afraid that I'll be blasted into smithereens by the Ether Star Destroyer Cannon before I can do anything, right?"
He looked at another scholar who was passing by and bowed to Andrew with great respect. There were only two ways to activate the Ether Star Annihilation Cannon. The first way was for the upper echelons of the Truth Society to hold a meeting and vote to choose a commander, just like how they had dealt with the Rain Deity previously. The second way was for the President to personally give the order, which would allow them to ignore the procedures of the upper echelons.
From Yue Sefu's point of view, Andrew's ambition was as clear as day.
President Maria had been in seclusion for several months without any news. It was as if Andrew had already turned the Truth Society into his … The word 'vice' of the Vice President could be ignored.
Moreover, there was something wrong with these scholars.
Although the purpose of Yue Sefu's visit this time was not to investigate the Truth Society, his instincts still made him feel that something was off.
Andrew was calm and composed, as if he did not understand the meaning behind Yue Sefu's words at all. He continued to calmly lead the way and said, "Your Excellency is really humorous … Several scholars under my jurisdiction are members of your fan club. When the time comes, I'm afraid that the moment I give the order, the cannon's muzzle will turn and aim at me first."
His tone was light and teasing, but Yue Sefu could hear a hint of mockery in it.
As everyone knew … most of the people who had fan clubs were 'idols', and everyone knew that 'idols', as its literal meaning was, were merely wooden figurines draped in a layer of bright and beautiful human skin.
Was he mocking him for his bright and beautiful appearance, but in reality, he was being manipulated?
With his current situation, the only people who could manipulate him were the Elders …
In fact, if one followed this train of thought, was he not being manipulated right now?
Defeating Osweiler and regaining the throne of the Glorious Grand Knight was a deliberate arrangement by the Elders, and fully cooperating with the bookstore to curry favor with Boss Lin was an order from the Elders.
So, was he warning him, or was he trying to sow discord?
Yue Sefu followed silently, staring at Andrew's back. Although he was not familiar with this guy, he had more or less interacted with him because of the information exchange.
In his impression, this old playboy definitely did not have such a scheming mind.
What made him, what made the Truth Society change like this?
While thinking like this, Andrew, who was leading the way, stopped and said, "We're here. If we continue forward, we'll reach the no man's land where the Mechanical Transmigration is sealed."
Yue Sefu looked up.
At the end of the corridor was a huge metal door. The door was engraved with runes that extended from the center to the surroundings. The runes were either bright or dark. The center of the door was sunken, as if it was a slot for something.
A short young man was standing by the door, waiting. When he saw Andrew, he immediately greeted him.
"Hood, are you ready?"
Andrew asked.
Hood raised his hand, showing off the Philosopher's Stone in his hand, and said with a grin, "Freshly made!"
He curled his lips and muttered, "This is the first time I've tried to refine such a high quality Philosopher's Stone … and the internal structure is actually connected to all the rune paths on the door. Fortunately, I have the full support of the laboratory, temporarily transferring all the resources from the other experiments, so it only took half a month."
He rolled his eyes, curled his lips, and complained, "So the key to the door was actually destroyed, so annoying."
Yue Sefu's eyebrows jumped as he heard this, frowning as he looked at the young man in front of him who looked like he was in his teens, possibly even younger than Melissa.
A high quality Philosopher's Stone, this was the symbol of an Annihilation Scholar …
And from the sound of it, this Philosopher's Stone was the key to opening this door, so it required a more complicated internal structure, much more complicated than a normal Philosopher's Stone.
The young man in front of him spoke with a relaxed tone, a height that others could not reach in their lifetime, but in his mouth, it was just a delay of half a month.
Andrew introduced him. "This is Hood, the nephew of President Maria, the leader of the Idealistic Faction, and currently the only two Annihilation Scholars in the Truth Society."
Yue Sefu suspected that there was something wrong with his ears.
Since when did the Truth Society have an Annihilation Scholar?
And since he was Maria's nephew, that eliminated the possibility of using some special method to fix his appearance. This was indeed a young man in his teens … but an Annihilation Scholar in his teens?
Was this some kind of absurd virtual game?
Hood looked at Yue Sefu's shocked expression, shrugged, and smiled. "If it was not refined independently, then it is not an Annihilation Scholar, but it will be soon."
Andrew waved his hand and said, "Okay, the specific rating will be arranged in a few days, so let's hurry up."
Hood nodded, then tiptoed and put the Philosopher's Stone into the groove on the door, starting to work.
The runes on the door dimmed for a moment, and then they shone brightly, starting from the center, they began to disintegrate into particles, floating around. A dark and deep tunnel appeared in front of them, and they could vaguely see some abandoned laboratories lined up on both sides.
Yue Sefu's heart skipped a beat.
Hood?
He had heard this name before!
Ke Laode had once told him … one night, President Maria's nephew, Hood, had broken into the bookstore and was caught by Boss Lin, who had asked Ke Laode to deal with him.
