Magus Tech (Technological Wizard)

Watching Rommel's back go away until it melted into the hazy night, Li Cha let out a breath.

Sitting down on a rock on a small slope, he showed a serious expression.

He was thinking, he was thinking seriously about Rommel's proposal.

It must be admitted that Rommel was "surrendering" him with the utmost sincerity, and the conditions for "surrendering" were indeed attractive.

Rommel showed his own experience, and he was deeply touched by the experience of killing the Golden Ring of the Truth Society.

After all, all he'd done with the Truth was destroy the East Coast branch—twice, kill the Silver Ring Steward—two, and kill some Iron Ring members—a hundred.

He may have won in terms of quantity, but Rommel surpassed him in quality—the other party had killed the Golden Ring—as far as he knew, the Golden Ring was very rare in the entire Truth Society, at most there were no more than twenty bit. Excluding those sent to guard in remote places such as the depths of the sea, the number of those who stayed on the mainland can be counted.

Of course, having said that, this is not a competition. It doesn't matter who wins or loses. What matters is Rommel's attitude: as long as you are willing to join, you can forget the past. As long as you sincerely rely on him, you can make up for your mistakes.

From this point of view, if the Truth Society is willing to give him a chance to play, he can guarantee that the Truth Society will bring benefits to more than ten East Coast branches.

And with the full support of the Truth Society, he no longer needs to be sneaky, and can conduct various researches openly, and clarify some doubts more efficiently and quickly. It is even possible that many doubts are directly answered by the so-called true god without further investigation.

To put it simply, if he joins the Truth Society, he can play the role of one plus one and roughly two, which will be a win-win result.

Rommel was right. The Truth Society is a great organization. Compared with other places, the core members of the organization are of higher quality. They are excellent collaborators, assistants, and...experiment objects.

To know that members of the Truth Society can be resurrected, some dangerous experiments will not take time to advance step by step.

Still need to do experiments on mice and dogs?

It doesn't need to be so troublesome at all, just fool a few "volunteers" and directly conduct human experiments.

All in all, the Truth Society can provide him with the environment, resources, technology, personnel and other supports that other places can't provide at all.

And for the price of all this,

Just accept the baptism of light and believe in the true God.

For a moment, he really felt a little moved.

But it was only for a moment. After time passed, he calmed down and shook his head silently in his heart.

Believe in the true God? Accept the baptism of light?

To be honest, in fact, these superficial things are acceptable to him, and he can completely flirt with the truth.

But there was one thing he couldn't bear at all.

That is, engraving the so-called brand of loyalty on the soul, so that he never has the ability to resist and question.

All along, what he pursued was the truth of the world. For this reason, using a scientific method, we are exploring step by step from scratch.

Perhaps the so-called true god, as Rommel said, represents the absolute truth, which can allow him to take a shortcut, and he can reach success without further efforts.

There's nothing wrong with that.

The problem is, even so, he must have the ability to say "bad" and to question.

In the world, if there is truth, then it should be allowed to be questioned—it is not allowed to be questioned, and there is no falsifiability, then it cannot be said to be truth, but superstition.

From ancient times to the present, all the things that humans take for granted have changed many times.

From the geocentric theory to the heliocentric theory.

From the four elements of earth, water, air, and fire in the world, to the three laws of classical mechanics, and then to the theory of relativity.

Truth can only show itself for what it really is if it is allowed to question it.

Only by being allowed to question the weirdness of the orbits of Mars and Jupiter in the solar system, and only by being allowed to question the existence of unreasonable things such as "eccentric circle" and "epicycle", can we derive Kepler's laws and understand the appearance of the universe.

Truth is not afraid of being questioned, not afraid of debate - the more debated, the more truthful it becomes.

On the contrary, it is the pseudoscience and false truth under the premise of superstition that are afraid of being questioned and are not allowed to be questioned.

If the true god can allow doubts, it doesn't matter if he believes in the other party.

But the true God is not allowed to be questioned, and if he still believes in the other party, it is tantamount to completely destroying the principles he has always adhered to—science becomes superstition, doubt becomes fanaticism, and the pursuit of truth becomes the satisfaction of lies.

He will no longer be him.

He will cease to be him completely.

Maybe he still retains almost all of his memories, maybe as Rommel said, with only a slight change in personality, but that is only equivalent to a copy of him - a copy that is 99% similar - less That one percent is his core soul.

So do you still need to make a choice?

Of course it is rejected.

It is impossible for him to accept the baptism of light and believe in the true God.

So……

In the night, Li Cha stood up from the stone, took a long breath, then let it out slowly, turned and walked towards his residence.

...

the other side.

Rommel walked back to his residence.

This is a very remote stone building located in the corner of Pompeii Town. Compared with the other stone buildings, it does not appear tall, but is even lower, only two stories high.

Because a large part of this building is buried deep underground, and the walls have been specially reinforced. On the one hand, it is to isolate the detection of spells, so that Rommel has a hidden rest area, and on the other hand, it is to prevent Rommel from occasionally testing spells in his residence. At that time, the aftermath of the spell spread to the outside - this has happened before.

Therefore, Rommel's residence looks a bit like a bunker.

Rommel walked near the "bunker" at this time, and then saw Yinuo Gaowa standing in front of the door.

Seeing Rommel coming back, Yinuo Gaowa greeted quickly: "Director, are you back?"

"Hmm." Rommel responded and asked, "Is there something?"

"Yes." Yinuo Gaowa nodded, "I want to ask you, how to deal with the next situation? For example, how to arrange the Chekav inspector? What should be the attitude of Wizard Richard? Also, Should the construction of the new energy system continue?" These are all issues that urgently need to be resolved.

Rommel thought for a few seconds, and gave the answers one by one: "The construction of the new energy system should stop first. After all, the whole project is still relatively large, and there is no rush for a day or two.

On Chekav's side, arrange him like an ordinary manager, and try to satisfy him as much as possible if he has any requirements. If he has comments or dissatisfaction, he can tell me.

As for Wizard Richard... For now, he is still an excellent member of our organization, and he is allowed to move freely, as long as he does not leave Pompey. As long as he gives me a satisfactory answer within three days, he will not only continue to be an excellent member of our organization, but will also eliminate Chekav's doubts, and he will also be my public successor. "

Speaking of this, Rommel paused, and said to Yinuo Gaowa: "From now on, I will stay in the residence, there is nothing urgent, please don't bother me. I will wait for Wizard Richard to give me Satisfactory answer, at that time, Pompeo will be a new beginning."

"That's it." Rommel finally said, pushed the door into the residence, and then closed it with a "bang".

Yinuo Gaowa stared at the closed door for a while, turned and left without saying anything.
