The Witcher’s Nightmare Wagon

Put away the pen, ended the conversation with Ashley, and on the other side, Newcomen also rejected all invitations. Such a big thing happened at the naval base, it is unwise to stay here.

After discreetly revealing the news to the person in charge Isaac and asking him to pass it on to Scott, Sigmund and the others left the meeting place by boat.

Newcomen came to the steam cabin and carved his own secret rune on this mechanical steam-powered machine, so that no one could imitate a similar machine by disassembling the machine.

After doing all this, leaving Juana and the remaining mechanics, continue to the small island of research. Newcomen uses a key to open the door of space, and returns to Abetu with Sigmund and Savery. Smith's research lab.

"It's all crazy." As soon as he returned to his place, Newcomen immediately put down his disguise and danced excitedly, "It's a pity that I can't keep Scott's expression forever, Sigmund, you should give He took a picture."

What about the good master demeanor? Sigmund was speechless. Are all masters good at disguising, or only Newcomen is like this?

"Teacher, you won the exchange meeting. I think Scott and the others will return to Abetus soon. The news about your promotion to the sixth level and the creation of a mechanical steam engine will be passed on soon."

"With these, Scott's age advantage is not so obvious. If we apply at this time, he will definitely not be able to compete with us."

"That's right." Newcomen nodded.

"If I'm not mistaken, the news should have reached Abetus. The city will be completely detonated tomorrow morning. We must take advantage of this opportunity, while everyone's emotions are high, and act quickly."

"Don't give Scott any chance!" Newcomen made up his mind after walking a few steps back and forth in the room.

"I'm going to write a letter now, and I will formally apply tomorrow morning!"

Seeing the heated discussion between the two, Sigmund quietly retreated to the door.

"Where are you going?" Newcomen looked alert.

"I need to report to the Duke in detail about the naval base, so..."

"Go, go." Newcomen waved his hand. After contacting the island during this period, he also understood that Sigmund really had no interest in creating a contract.

In addition, his talent in the hunter contract is really amazing. Although many battles are simply skipped, a naval base was destroyed under his operation.

Both Tier 5s died.

Think about it, Sigmund had just entered the fourth level at this time, Duke Dressel was right, Sigmund's talent in the hunter contract was no worse than in the creation contract.

According to the duke's promise, maybe four or five years later, there will be a new 7th level in the kingdom, and Dressel's career can be counted as a successor.

"Don't waste your talent. Now that you have made a choice, don't let the duke down." He said this with a serious face, "Also, I am your teacher, so don't let your research on machinery go."

"Don't worry." Sigmund reassured, jumped into the carriage and went straight to the Duke's mansion after going out. What happened this whole day was indeed ups and downs, and he wanted to ask some questions.

At the same time, on the other side of the city, Scott and others also returned to Abetus. He did not bring back flowers and praises, but was full of exhaustion and negativity, and he looked six or seven years old.

"Barry, I want to leave Abetus and go outside for a while." Scott looked depressed.

At the exchange meeting in the evening, he suffered a great blow.

First of all, he lost the inevitable game and changed from the first place to the last place. It is estimated that this matter will become the talk of many people after dinner and spread to many countries.

The key is that others don't know, but he knows in his heart that all this is caused by himself.

Newcomen was not originally on the roster for the competition, but he secretly sent someone to add him by using his power for selfish purposes, but he shot himself in the foot with a stone.

The target he wanted to humiliate was victorious, and he got nothing.

Afterwards, an angry Scott questioned Newcomen's cheating and applied to investigate the ship. His views and speculations were also valid, but who would have thought that Newcomen's ship could exceed the Everyone, win the game with a crushing advantage.

After that, came the shock of the mechanical steam-powered engine.

And... the sixth level!

Who would have thought that the old man would have quietly advanced to the sixth level a few years ago, and concealed his own strength.

Then, on this critical occasion, I, who knew nothing, bumped into it.

To pieces.

This is no longer a matter of slapping the face. Scott felt that his face was swollen. During the exchange meeting, he suppressed his depression and maintained his only decency left at level 6.

At this time, when he returned to Abetus and his research room, he couldn't hold back any longer, his forehead was throbbing, thinking of those smiling eyes, the chaos value rose wildly, and he had to drink two bottles in a row Tranquilizer.

"We did lose, but are you willing to leave at this time?" Barry asked.

"So what if you're not reconciled?" Scott sighed.

"Compared to Newcomen, I have no hope at all. The seat of the permanent committee is his."

"That's not necessarily!" Barry's eyes were beating with an inexplicable light.

"We still have hope."

"What?" Scott looked at his old friend.

"Cheer up, you lost to him today, what can you do later, Scott, you are younger and more talented than him, in the next three, five or even ten years, will you still lose to him? "

"How is that possible?!" Scott raised his voice. Although he lost this game, he still had confidence in himself.

"That's the crux of the matter." Barry clenched his fists.

"Have you forgotten? How are the seats of permanent members created and rotated?"

"According to the regulations of the Royal Academy of Engineering, if a member voluntarily relinquishes his seat due to his age and physical condition, then the rune master who meets the requirements can apply for a permanent seat by way of replacement."

"That's right." Scott nodded, "Mr. Milosh is in this situation. He submitted an application for abdication on the day we set off. The purpose is to leave a vacancy for me to come back." Because of successive blows, He was a little depressed, and his thinking was naturally not as thorough as usual.

"So it's very simple." Barry smiled, "Since Mr. Milosh can submit an application for abdication, he can naturally revoke the application for other reasons."

"if it is like this……"

Hearing this, Scott finally understood what Barry meant. His eyes lit up, and he continued: "If Mr. Milosh withdraws his abdication application at this critical moment, then the replacement application submitted by Newcomen will be invalid. !"

"Haha, at this time, if he wants to obtain the seat of the permanent committee member, he must go through the normal promotion method! Regardless of the strength, the research results of both parties will be used as the basis for comparison and assessment!"

"The steam power system with a purely mechanical structure is indeed remarkable, but with this achievement alone, Newcomen has absolutely no way to compare with Mr. Milosh!"

"There is no replacement. Under normal circumstances, it is absolutely impossible for him to replace Mr. Milosh, so even if Newcomen wins you at this stage, it doesn't make any sense." Barry added.

"In this way, Mr. Milosh will continue to be a permanent member for another three or five years. With this time as a buffer, I think you should be able to achieve new achievements."

"At that time, you were still on the rise, but in three to five years, Newcomen began to age and became less energetic. Considering it all together, which of the two of you has a better chance of filling the permanent committee?"

"Yes, that's it!" Scott clenched his fists excitedly.

In fact, most of the resident members have always obtained their seats through replacement. After all, the longer the research time, the more accumulated results.

If the latecomers want to surpass the pioneers, they must make a major breakthrough in a certain field, so in Scott's mind, if Milosh withdraws his application for abdication, Newcomen can only swallow this breath.

After a few more years, one will slowly get old, and one new research will emerge in an endless stream. Time will be on Scott's side, and he will win the final victory.

"What are you waiting for?" Barry stood up.

"We are leaving now to visit Mr. Milosh. Like us, he is also a supporter of the Psionic School. I think he is also unwilling to see the rise of the Mechanic School."

"That's right." Scott nodded, sweeping away the decadence just now, and regained his confidence on his face.

"We have to grasp the time well. We must wait for Newcomen to submit his application for filling the seat, and then let Mr. Milosh revoke his application for abdication. Haha, at that time, the position that we thought we were sure to win suddenly disappeared..."

"At Newcomen's age, shouldn't he be able to bear this kind of excitement? After all, judging by his age, this should be his last chance." Scott smiled happily, he was about to endure today All the humiliation came back with a vengeance.

After changing their clothes, the two left the research room in a carriage and did not return until late at night.

At this time, news about Newcomen's victory, the creation of an advanced purely mechanical steam engine, and his promotion to the sixth level had spread throughout Abetus.

This explosive news shocked everyone.

Victory, Steam Engine, Sixth Order.

Each news alone can make people discuss for a long time, and when the three news are released together, everyone realizes that a new master is rising.

Reminiscent of what Scott did before, they also understand that the seats of the permanent members should change a lot.

So, the next morning, for the first time, almost everyone put down their work and research and came to the Royal Academy of Engineering early.

Everyone realized that something big would happen today.

At 8:00 in the morning, Newcomen and Savery appeared at the Royal Academy of Engineering on time.
