Witch, Fireball and Steam Evil God

Chapter 81 Laosen Technology Welcomes You

Ethan couldn't help but sigh that Ivy was indeed the daughter of a politician. In order to dispel her idea, he analyzed the situation to her, "We are seriously short of both manpower and equipment. Most of the residents living in Creekwood Town have never touched a musket. In addition, Baron Gladin is an open-minded person, so he won't go to the point of launching a rebellion."

He also never wanted to be a rebel leader.

Before he traveled through time, he was just an ordinary worker who lived a peaceful life. Politics was far away from him. He had neither the ability to lead troops in battle nor the ambition in that regard.

It takes extraordinary personal charm to stir people's emotions with just a few words and make them willing to follow him and fight alongside him.

However, they have unique advantages in the research of magical technology.

The Winter Witch, a saint that countless people fear, has an unparalleled talent in elemental energy magic and has made extremely in-depth research in alchemy; Miss Chloe, who has just started her career as an alchemist, has already brewed a potion with a purity of 99.8% under guidance. Even the Knight Commander of the Empire believes that she will become the empire's leading alchemist in the future; and him, Lao Sen, to be more modest, he thinks he has a pretty good talent for making magic scrolls.

As for Ivy...

Money is also a superpower.

She has really strong funding and can also smooth out relationships with various parties to cover up their research when necessary.

This is Ethan’s ideal team.

"Researching magical technology? That sounds interesting."

After a brief thought, Winter said, "I can help you when I finish what I'm doing."

Ethan knew that the "matters at hand" should refer to the long list of murders, and said, "As the saying goes, there is no time to lose, especially in the field of science and technology. If you are a step late, the gap will be widened by others."

"I have things I have to finish."

This time, Winter was resolute.

"If that's all, will that satisfy you?"

Ethan had expected Lin Dong's reaction. The grudge between her and the empire could not be put aside with just a few words of advice, and he had never intended to use the easy-to-understand stance of "when will the cycle of revenge end" to persuade the other party.

In his opinion, the purpose of joining a team is to better achieve one's own goals. If the premise of joining is to give up oneself, then it is better not to join the team.

"I have been reading the Hippogryph Daily for the past two years. It mentions many of your deeds. Do you know what happened to those who were killed?"

Although the crime scene was always very curious, he guessed that this was some way of venting anger. Seeing that Winter remained silent, Ethan continued, "Many of them were posthumously named heroes of the empire, and some people even published articles in newspapers to commemorate them, while you were regarded as fanatical believers of the evil god."

“This is their usual tactic.”

Winter spoke calmly. She was not surprised at all. The Daily Hippogryph was itself controlled by the Empire. People could only see the news that the Empire wanted them to see. The Violet Commune had submitted a series of reform proposals to the King, believing that newspapers were a mirror reflecting all parts of the Empire. They could tell them what was happening in various cities of the Empire at this moment and alert them.

But as expected, the reform proposals were not adopted.

The Daily Hippogryph remained much the same, and she had long since given up on her old path.

"How about having them dragged out into the street?"

Ethan's suggestion startled Lin Dong. She stared at Ethan, waiting for what to come.

He continued, "They were dragged into the streets as criminals, tied up and paraded through the streets, judged and spitted on, and then hanged on the gallows, nailed to the pillar of shame in history... I just think that letting them die as 'heroes' is too easy for them."

The more Ivy listened, the more she felt something was wrong.

Aren't you just trying to start a rebellion?
He even wants to put the blame on her!

"how do you want to do it?"

"As I just said, the empire is now on the brink of collapse. Once the Knight Commander dies, civil strife will break out in the empire within two years. However, this civil strife will ultimately fail. The empire will dispatch high-level extraordinary beings and the Golden Fleet, and they will wipe out anyone who attempts to resist."

The Lophik Consortium will definitely push for the outbreak of war behind the scenes. No matter whether the winner is the nobles, the church or the consortium, the civilians will be the ultimate losers. Even the evil gods who give them power will only use their souls as fuel.

These are truly dark times.

Ethan felt that if he were an ordinary person living in this era, he would probably fall into deep despair.

Even if Winter could kill all the extraordinary people who stood in her way, she would eventually be unable to cope with the situation because the territory of the empire was too vast.

"So, they will definitely need weapons."

Ethan said, "How about handing the weapons to them and letting them help you send those people to the gallows?"

"Wait a minute, this isn't..."

Ivy suddenly thought of something and her face changed slightly. The pattern Ethan described was too familiar.

Ethan's answer confirmed her speculation, "You have been regarded as a follower of the evil god for so many years. If you don't do some evil god things, wouldn't it be a big loss?"

After some investigation, Ethan discovered that the side effects of the weapons provided by the evil god to people were too great. They needed to endure the pain of their souls being distorted, abandon everything they were familiar with, and gradually become numb puppets.

It is incredible that such a weapon, which is obviously made by unscrupulous businessmen, can be circulated on the market.

"Let us work together to kick the evil god out of the trade market first!"

Ethan's words were powerful.

Ivy's heart was beating violently - snatch believers from the evil god?

If it were anyone else, she would think that the other person must be crazy, but at this moment she felt her blood boiling, which covered up the confusion after learning the truth. She seemed to see a door opening to her.

The first to turn against her was the golden hair on her head. It seemed that the hair couldn't wait to do something with Ethan.

And she...

I have to admit that I was moved.

However, Ivy was confused for a moment. This seemed to be an unforgivable act of inciting rebellion, but it also seemed to be eliminating a stubborn disease that was rooted in the empire.

But what is certain is that as long as Ethan can complete his research, magical technology can do much more than this. It will be another journey waiting to be explored, a journey that no one has ever embarked on.

"With your joining us, we will definitely achieve our goal. No one in this world knows elemental magic better than you, Sensei!"

The word "teacher" left Lindong in a trance for a long while.

Her vision became blurry.

Many memories came to her mind at this moment. It took her a long time to suppress the throbbing in her heart and asked softly, "What are your plans?"

“I opened a store in Hearth Bay.”

Heisenberg had already earned a lot of reputation by distributing magic scrolls everywhere, and he felt that what they sold should not be limited to magic scrolls.

Magic scrolls, magic potions, and even weapons that combine magic and gunpowder.

They can easily buy most of the materials they need for research in Hearth Bay.

"Let's start there."
