Chapter 9 Pioneers(1/2)
The wounds gradually healed, the broken arms re-adhered, and the hot blood rushed again. The soldiers climbed up from the snow, moved briefly, and returned to activity.
The realm of immortality can repair physical injuries, but it cannot have any effect on the spirit or soul. This is its drawback, because the wound heals too quickly, and sometimes the brain will misjudge that the wound is still there, causing symptoms such as spasms and phantom pain.
Of course, compared to real injuries, phantom pain and cramps are completely acceptable, but this will also increase the psychological pressure of soldiers on the battlefield, and over time, it is easy for them to suffer from mental breakdown.
Only soldiers with extremely strong willpower can perfectly resist the side effects of the immortal realm.
And standing in front of Bodelnov was the best soldier in the empire.
"Father, what do you think of them?" Katerina asked Mavi again.
Now Ma Wei heard something different, as if...
What was Katerina hinting to him?
"They are very good, but it's a pity that they are not followers of Yunia." Ma Wei said.
"I heard that the Doomsday Party released an alchemical monster in the United States of America?" Katerina's eyes brightened, and her tone was like a curious little girl: "Is there such a thing?"
Ma Wei nodded and said: "Yes, I have fought against those alchemy monsters. They are very powerful. The strength of each individual is above the average strength of extraordinary creatures. It is not as good as Edward's leaders of extraordinary races, but it is stronger than ordinary extraordinary creatures.
."
"I also heard that, Father, you have obtained the research information of the Doomsday Party, right?"
Ma Wei was a little strange. As early as half a year ago, he had sent the research data back to Mosk and handed it over to the Royal Academy of Sciences for research. Katerina knew about this, so why did she act like she didn't know?
After thinking about it for a while, Ma Wei felt that Katerina's purpose was not that simple.
From the moment she selected the most elite soldiers to the time she demonstrated the strength of the imperial soldiers, she seemed to be sending him some kind of signal.
Now we are talking about alchemy monsters and Er Stone...
"I have handed over the research data to the Royal Academy of Sciences." Ma Wei continued: "Your Majesty, are you very interested in these?"
"I have a bold idea." Katerina said, "I'm afraid you won't agree."
"what idea?"
"Use the Doomsday Party's technology on them."
Katerina looked at the soldiers in the snow and pursed her red lips: "Since it is the Magic Olympics, how can we only rely on magic potions? Magic competition is the theme. These soldiers have proven their strength, but they can't get it.
The gift from the goddess...it’s such a pity.”
After hearing these words, Ma Wei's eyes narrowed slightly and he said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, do you want to conduct human experiments?"
"They did it voluntarily."
"You can't do it voluntarily!"
"With the Eternal Realm and Luca here, what difficulties can't be solved?" Katerina didn't want to give up: "Can't the soul contaminated by Er stone be purified with Luca's magic? One body, one soul...
Father, the Church of Truth has held the key to the next era!"
"This is a forbidden art!" Ma Wei said sternly: "Today we use human bodies for experiments, and once they succeed, tomorrow innocent people will be involved! Magic and souls are compatible, so where do the compatible souls come from? Do humans
Are everyone willing? This hole cannot be opened!"
"This is not something you or I can decide, Father."
Katerina slowly shook her head: "It was the Doomsday Party that developed this technology, and this is likely to be the trend in the future. We may not do it today, but will others who get the technology not do it? Napoleon, Caesar, William V
World...Father, if they succeed in using human experiments and create elite magic soldiers, how should we respond?"
"The Church of Truth that you have worked so hard to build, and Yunia who has not yet fully grown up, what will happen to them?"
"The Romanov Kingdom has fallen behind once, and I will not fall behind a second time..."
Katerina came slightly closer, slid her fingers across Ma Wei's cheek, and said like a lover: "I understand how cruel human experiments are. You are burdened with the truth and cannot do this. I will take the blame for starting human experiments."
, I promise to find someone willing, okay?"
"This is not a matter of infamy." Ma Wei touched his daughter's head and sighed: "I have seen the golden gods. They were once great pioneers with the desire for all mankind to ascend, but they were created by themselves.
Alchemy technology is forever trapped in the palace and has become a tool for producing magic power... I don't want Yunia to end up like that. Human experimentation is a key deliberately dropped by the devil and a door to disaster."
Medicine also requires experiments, but when researching symptomatic drugs, you can always find willing patients with the last glimmer of hope. This is completely different from actively conducting human experiments just to obtain powerful alchemy warriors.
From Katerina's perspective, the Church of Truth, which has obtained the realm of immortality and Luca's magic, is currently the easiest place to conduct human experiments. There is no need to worry about the pressure of public opinion. Even if there are problems in the experiments, they can be perfectly solved with magic.
There are no side effects, at most they are some psychological shadow, not painful or itchy.
It is inevitable to start human experiments and create powerful imperial soldiers, but for some reason, Ma Wei always has a lingering worry in his heart.
This is a field he has never set foot in, and he has no experience to draw from. He has gradually moved to the forefront of the times, groping in the fog, and every decision will have far-reaching consequences.
He opened his eyes wide and tried his best to look forward, trying to see through the fog, see the end of the long river of time, and see the direction of the time, but he could see nothing.
It seems that being stubborn and not changing is the safest course of action.
Just stand where you are...
Boom!
The sound of explosions in the distance woke Mawei up.
It was the sound of soldiers training for fixed-point blasting, but to Ma Wei's ears, it was like the rolling wheels of the approaching era.
Behind him are thousands of believers in the God of Truth, and the fate of the entire alliance.
What's behind the Believers and the Alliance?
The giant wheel of the times is already chasing us. If we don’t move forward, we will be ruthlessly crushed.
It was so close and so fast, not giving them any time to breathe.
Comfortable, like lying in warm water.
Crisis is like a burning torch.
The Empire is not afraid of challenges!
Mawei did not reply to Katerina immediately, but took Yunia to the Church of the Three Destinies in Mosk.
"The Great Pope!"
The bishop stationed in Mosk saw Mavey coming in person and quickly stood up to greet him.
"I want to see Wilder, you ask him to come."
"yes..."
Candlesticks were placed under the statues in the prayer hall, and the bishop prayed devoutly with his forehead between his eyebrows. Not long after, the middle one of the three statues suddenly emitted a golden halo, until it filled the entire room.
The statue seemed to come to life, looking down at Ma Wei.
"What's the matter?"
After the bishop left the room, Ma Wei said: "I want to ask you about Yunia's fate."
"Don't you believe in fate?"
"Just as a reference." Ma Wei said: "I want to know what you see the future looking like."
After a moment of silence, Wilder said softly: "Her fate is connected to you. What you do will affect the trajectory of her fate. I can't give a definite answer."
"If I use alchemy technology to conduct human experiments, what impact will it have on her?"
Wilder was silent again: "This is a path without destiny."
"What?"
"With only the power of fate, I cannot observe this future." Wilder answered truthfully: "The power of fate has an upper limit, maybe Nereida can see it."
"In other words, if I vigorously develop alchemy technology, Yunia will grow to a height that the power of destiny cannot reach?"
"Non-existence represents two possibilities, destruction or rebirth." Wilder said: "Yunia controls the 'truth'. She is destined to become the main god from the day she was born. With authority like fate and Voodoo, the main god has already
It’s the limit, but for Yunia, her upper limit is far beyond that.”
"Destiny cannot be deduced, and it is not necessarily a good thing. Maybe she will grow to a height that cannot be observed by the power of destiny. Maybe...she will be swallowed by a more powerful existence and become part of the other party's body."
The unknown is the scariest thing.
Because you don't know what will happen.
The path proposed by Katerina is an unknown road.
But Ma Wei already got the answer.
"I see, thank you."
The golden glow receded, Wilder canceled the divine descending, and the originally extinguished candle lighted up again. Ma Wei hesitated for a while and suddenly asked: "Are you afraid?"
Yunia glanced at him and shook her head vigorously: "I'm not afraid!"
"Do you know what I'm talking about?"
"have no idea!"
The voice is crisp and clear, without any confusion.
Not knowing and not being afraid is the greatest trust in Ma Wei.
