- Shadow Castle
As the owner of the castle, Morrigan is entertaining a very important guest to her. As a researcher, what is most important to her?
Invention project? no.
Researchers? Neither.
Research funding? correct.
There is an old saying that goes, a wise woman cannot make a meal without rice. It means that you are extremely talented, but if you don’t have money, you can’t accomplish anything! A penny would choke a heroic man to death, let alone Morrigan's research. It was simply a money-burning stove. If you want to boil the water on the stove, you don't know how much money you have to throw in it. In order to get more research funds, Morrigan was very attentive to visiting guests.
First, we took the guests to visit the laboratory in use, and then took the guests to the deepest part of the underground, where the laboratory was being researched.
??Everyone in this world has their own pursuits. Don’t look at some people who claim that they have no desires and no demands. But having no desires and no demands is not a pursuit in itself. Poor people pursue wealth, women pursue goddesses, believers pursue faith, and officials pursue power. So what do rich and noble people pursue? They pursue eternity and hope that their wealth can last for tens of thousands of years. In layman's terms, it is the word eternal life. No matter how much money they spend on this illusory pursuit, they don't feel bad. As for Morrigan, it was just like them showing off their research results and bringing the dead back to life. Although there is still a certain gap between the resurrection at this time and the resurrection required by those people. There is hope. There is a need for support. It can be said that these people try their best to satisfy Morrigan's requirements. If you want people to give people, if you want money, give them money. There is only one requirement, crack the code of life, and let them achieve the eternity of life.
Of course, keeping light out is not their principle, so the reborn person appears. While earning high profits, these people are not only rewarded financially. They also have the power to challenge the Alliance. Although they cannot confront the Alliance head-on yet, given time, they believe it. They will be the masters of the league. It is precisely for this reason that Morian's research will receive their maximum support.
"Not bad, is the experiment going well?" The visitor asked Morrigan who was following him with a smile on his face. The speaker was a middle-aged man with a very ordinary appearance. The only thing that was unforgettable was that he had a blue beard. It was unclear whether he was dyed or born like this.
"So far, we haven't encountered any problems that are difficult to solve." Morrigan replied immediately after hearing this.
"So, how have you considered the matter we talked about before?" Bluebeard asked again.
After hearing the words, Morrigan pondered for a moment and asked cautiously: "Sir, can I ask a question?"
"Are you asking why we made this urgent request for you?" Bluebeard asked calmly.
"Yes." Morrigan nodded slowly.
"Actually, this question is easy to answer, because time does not wait for us. Unstable factors have appeared within the alliance. This is a good time for us to start an uprising. And this opportunity is not only seen by us, but also by other forces. Here we are, in order to gain an advantage in the competition in the future, we must master more power in the shortest possible time. Are you satisfied with my answer?"
Hearing this, Morrigan said slowly: "Sir, the stability of that experiment cannot be guaranteed at present. Once it gets out of control, the losses will be huge."
"What will be lost?" asked Bluebeard.
"According to your request, the research on the madness agent has been intensified. But after all, it is still in the experimental stage. Once the madness agent gets out of control, the experimental subjects injected with the madness agent will go berserk and attack any objects around them. . And what’s even worse is that once a rampage occurs. This kind of rampage is contagious, that is to say, once an experimental subject goes rampant, the experimental subjects nearby that have also been injected with the madness agent will also go rampage. .”
"This problem is indeed a bit serious, but I believe you can solve it. Let's do this. When I give you an additional budget of 200 million later, can you solve this problem as quickly as possible?"
After listening to Bluebeard's words, Morrigan smiled bitterly and explained to Bluebeard: "Sir, this is not a matter of money. Even if we find a solution to the problem of maddening agent rampage, we can't guarantee that it will not happen in the process. Other questions. After all, the madness agent is a new research topic, and we have not done any research on this before. And Sir, I don’t understand, don’t we already have an undead army? Why do we still have to pursue more powerful ones? The power? You know, the more powerful the power, the harder it is to control.”
"I know what you mean, but please remember that you are just a researcher. You have no right to interfere with the decisions made by the people above. What you have to do is to complete the tasks assigned to you by the people above. As for How to use it is not something you need to consider." Bluebeard suddenly warned Morrigan with a serious look on his face.
Morrigan lowered her head after being warned, but still had an unconvinced expression on her face. Bluebeard sighed softly, and said to Morrigan in a slower tone: "Morrigan, I know that you have outstanding abilities, and I also understand that talented people are always a little arrogant, but I also ask you to understand. After all, I am not the one who has the final say in the organization. I won’t care what you say to me today, but if you tell others, then you have to be careful. To put it bluntly, you are the person in the organization Tools, those people above will not allow a tool to have its own thoughts. As for the question you just asked me, I can answer you. Why pursue more powerful power, because the opponent of the organization has more powerful power. The organization cannot afford to lose, not even once. Once it loses, everything in the organization, including you, will be destroyed. Do you want to see that happen?"
Morrigan shook her head slightly, Bluebeard smiled slightly, and continued: "Since you don't want to, then just do your thing with peace of mind."
"But there are so many tasks assigned to me, and there are only so many people. It's too busy." Morrigan frowned and complained to Bluebeard.
"We are already helping you solve this problem. Before long, you will get ten assistants. These assistants are top talents in various fields. In order to recruit these people, the organization will spend a lot of effort. By then Don't be too busy and screen these people carefully to avoid being sneaked in by rats."
“I can’t even find out the problem in the organization?” Morrigan asked in disbelief.
"That's different. If their background is in the alliance, then the organization may not be able to detect the problem. But it's different here. You can tell whether these people will reveal their flaws through observation."
"What if there are really rats?" Morrigan asked again.
Bluebeard laughed when he heard this, "Haha don't tell me that you don't have the ability to make those rats your pets."
Morrigan also smiled, and after receiving a positive reply from Bluebeard, she could free up her hands to deal with the ten upcoming assistants.
"Dudududu" was just when Morrigan and Bluebeard were talking happily. Something suddenly went wrong in the ongoing experiment, and the siren started flashing continuously.
"What's going on?" Blue Beard asked urgently.
Morrigan did not answer. She stared at the display screen, sighed and said, "The experimental subject went berserk."
When Blue Beard heard this, he looked towards the screen and saw a humanoid object frantically attacking a steel plate in front of him. The ten centimeter thick steel plate was like a piece of waste paper, punched by the humanoid object to punch a hole.
"This, is this the power after going berserk?" Blue Beard asked Morrigan with a somewhat excited expression. Morrigan knew what Blue Beard meant, and immediately poured cold water on Blue Beard and said: "Don't get excited. We can't control this power for the time being. No matter how powerful it is, it is useless to us."
"It doesn't matter. Just because you can't control it now doesn't mean you can't control it in the future. I have confidence in you." Bluebeard said, reaching out and patting Morrigan on the shoulder.
Morrigan smiled bitterly when she heard this, and said to Bluebeard: "You'd better not have confidence in me, that will make me more stressed."
"If you can control this power, then the undead army you mentioned before can only be regarded as scum with a combat power of less than 5." Bluebeard encouraged Morrigan with an excited look.
But Morrigan was a little dissatisfied with Bluebeard's comments about the undead army. After all, it was my own hard work, but how could it turn into a scum with less than 5 combat power in your mouth? I know you said that on purpose, but when I heard it, I couldn't help but feel unhappy.
"What do you mean by a scumbag with a combat power of less than 5? Is the Undead Army really that bad?" Morrigan said, staring at Bluebeard in a bad tone. But Bluebeard seemed unaware, and replied after hearing this: "The undead army has no problem with the soldiers. But it is not enough to deal with ability users or ancient warriors."
"The undead army has a strong vitality. Even if it cannot defeat the ability users and ancient warriors, it will not be easily defeated. Moreover, the undead army wins with numbers. Even if the opponent is killed, it will still be exhausted." Molly An defended the undead army unconvinced.
"Stop talking, it's recognized in the organization that the Undead Legion is not powerful anyway. If those guys didn't need to waste resources, I'm afraid they would have been ordered to be destroyed long ago." Bluebeard waved after hearing this.?Said to Morrigan.
Morrigan was silent for a moment, then ordered to the staff around her: "Bring in Wright's image."
After a while, Morrigan pointed at the display and said to Bluebeard: "This is the power of the Corpse King in the Undead Army. Come and see if it is a scumbag with less than 5 combat power as you said." .”
"It seems that you care about the words of a scumbag whose combat power is less than 5." Bluebeard said to Morrigan with a smile.
Morrigan did not hide it and admitted directly: "Of course, these zombies are all my hard work. Now that I am being despised like this, of course I feel unhappy."
"Okay, then let me see how powerful the zombie king level can be?" Bluebeard looked at the display screen with a smile. On the screen, a zombie called the zombie king by Morrigan was fighting with a person.
"This zombie doesn't look like a zombie at all, just like a normal person." Bluebeard didn't care about the battle, but stared at the zombie on the screen and said to Morrigan.
"Of course, the zombie king level must be distinguished from ordinary zombies." Morrigan replied after hearing this.
“…Then is there any existence stronger than the Corpse King level?”
"Yes. There are also corpse emperor-level zombies. But for some unknown reason, there is currently only one zombie emperor-level zombie, and it is still in the observation stage. I plan to wait until the individual condition of the zombie emperor-level zombies stabilizes before trying it out to see if it can be done. Mass production.”
"Could the Corpse King level be mass-produced?" Bluebeard asked in surprise.
"Sir, do you know how zombies upgrade?"
"How to upgrade?" Bluebeard asked subconsciously.
"Devouring. This is what I discovered by accident. Two zombies devoured each other and turned into a more powerful zombie. I turned that zombie into a zombie general, then a zombie commander, and then a zombie king. . However, the number of devoured is very large. The number of zombies that need to be devoured increases exponentially with each level. If estimated based on the size of the undead army, approximately 2,000 corpse kings can be obtained. As for the corpse king, There can be about five, right?”
"The number of undead legions exceeds 100,000. We can only get 2,000 corpse kings? Tsk tsk, after all the calculations, this seems a bit uneconomical." Bluebeard said, touching his chin.
"It is indeed a bit uneconomical at the moment, but I believe that it won't take long before I can solve this problem and make the Undead Legion a powerful legion that the organization relies on." Morrigan assured Bluebeard with confidence.
But Blue Beard poured cold water on it at this moment, pointed at the display screen and said to Morrigan: "Don't promise me, that Corpse King seems to be almost unable to withstand it."
"Huh?" Morrigan hurriedly looked at the screen after hearing this, and saw that on the screen, Wright was being beaten back by his opponent. He was about to die.
"This, this, it's not that the Corpse King is incompetent, it's that its opponent is too powerful." Morrigan explained to Bluebeard in a hushed tone. Bluebeard did not expose Morrigan's fig leaf. He nodded in agreement and asked, changing the subject: "Where did the master who defeated the Corpse King come from? Is he also on the Death Star now?"
"Yes, this is a group of Star Territory travelers who suddenly broke in. Their strength is not weak, but I have a way to deal with them." Morrigan explained to Bluebeard with an ugly look on her face. Bluebeard heard this and asked with interest: "Is there any way to recruit him?"
"I'm not sure about that. But I guess there's no chance." Morrigan thought for a while and replied.
"Where are they now? I'm going to talk to them." Blue Beard said in a deep voice.
"It's near Snow Lake. Well, sir, I captured one of them, so if you try to recruit them like this, not only will you not be successful, you may also be caught by them and used as a hostage. "
After hearing Morrigan’s reminder, Blue Beard nodded and replied: “That’s right. Then give me the person you captured, and I will use this person to communicate with them.”
"This, sir, that person is very important to our next experiment, so"
"That's it, that's a bit difficult to handle." Bluebeard pondered for a moment after hearing this, and said to Morrigan: "Is that person really that important to your experiment?"
Morrigan nodded heavily and replied: "Yes, she can be said to be the key to whether the research on life can go smoothly."
Once he heard that it was related to the study of life, Bluebeard completely gave up his plan to get people from Morrigan. Research on life has always been what those in the organization are most concerned about. As long as it is related to this matter, there is no room for negotiation. It seems that if you want to recruit those people, you still need to?Start somewhere else.
"Give me your good hand and accompany me to meet those people." Bluebeard said to Morrigan in a deep voice.
"My lord, what are you going to do?" Morrigan asked curiously.
"Let's try to negotiate with them first. Since we have hostages in hand, we don't believe they will disobey. Asking you to send more people to follow will also prevent them from seizing me as a hostage." Bluebeard replied after hearing this.
"Sir, if that's the case, how about I go with you?" Morrigan suggested softly.
"What are you going to do with me?" Bluebeard looked at Morrigan in confusion and asked.
"I dare not hide it from you, sir. In fact, those people have already been to this castle once, but I used the teleportation array to teleport them back that time. If you don't come, I guess they will come out here tomorrow. I want Let's go and see if there are any sequelae after they were teleported."
After listening to Morrigan's explanation, Bluebeard touched his chin and said to Morrigan: "I changed my mind. I won't go to see those people. I will just wait here for them to come. It can be used to verify whether they are qualified enough to I came out to recruit them. Morrigan, send your good hands here and let me see what those people are capable of."
"Yes. Your Majesty has a destiny, and of course your subordinates must try their best. However, Sir, I am afraid that those subordinates are no match for those people, so when the time comes, I am afraid that your guards will need to take action to test those people."
"That's it, no problem. Then arrange the people I brought with me outside the castle. The two people I brought with me are both guys with amazing destructive power. Don't destroy this place when the time comes. That would be terrible. Trouble." Bluebeard said after thinking about it for a moment.
After receiving Blue Beard’s affirmative answer, Morrigan said hurriedly: “Then please stay in the Shadow Forest outside the castle and wait. The area is large and they are not afraid of damage, so they can work hard.”
"Okay, I'll do as you say." Bluebeard nodded and agreed to Morrigan's suggestion. To be continued. .
