Chapter 449 Headlines
In the hotel's luxurious suite, next to the window with an unobstructed view of the street, Dorothy was eating fried eggs and looking at the large, neatly printed fonts on the pages of the book in front of her, and she couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
'It turns out that there is a trade agreement between Azam's Haisha and the Artisans' Guild. At the beginning, this kid Ghalib pretended to guarantee to the Artisans' Guild that he would abide by the agreement, trying to stabilize the Artisans' Guild from interfering in the internal strife of Haisha. Later, after he came to power, he tore up the agreement in a blink of an eye and turned to the Dark Gold Guild that secretly supported him... The artisans who were fooled by Ghalib obviously don't get along with him.
"The neutrality principle of the Artisan Guild is based on non-aggression. Ghalib's breaking of the contract first is a great offense to the Artisan Guild, so the Artisan Guild did not hesitate to ask others to reveal important intelligence."
Dorothy thought so. In her opinion, the thing that the Artisans Guild could not forgive the most was breaking the contract. As businessmen, they attached great importance to things like contracts and agreements. For the Artisans Guild, Ghalib's business with the Dark Gold Society was secondary because they could not control the choices of customers. But when it came to breaking the contract, that was another matter.
"But fortunately, Ghalib broke the contract, otherwise Beverly would not have been willing to give me this information. It seems that I have to buy a boat ticket to Ivig."
Dorothy thought so, and after finishing her fried eggs, she picked up her pen and began to write on the page.
"By the way, what does Azamu's divination item look like?" Dorothy wrote on the page of the book. Since she had decided to go to Ivig to find something, she naturally had to find out what the thing looked like. However, Beverly's next response was a little unexpected to her.
"As for the appearance of the divination tool, I'm sorry, I don't know. Since Azamu got it, he has never shown it to anyone else. Therefore, no one except Azamu himself knows what the divination tool looks like."
"No one knows what it looks like... Shit, does that mean if I want to get this thing, I still need to go to the Pure Flow Church and look for it slowly?"
Looking at Beverly's response, Dorothy frowned and thought, then she picked up the pen and wrote down her questions.
"You just said that the interval between uses of this divination tool is three years. So is it ready for use now or is it in a cooling state after use? If it is in a state after use, how long will it take before it can be used again?"
Dorothy continued to write questions. In her opinion, if this thing had only been used for a short time and she had to wait for several years after getting it, then its value would be greatly reduced. Whether she should get it or not was a question to be discussed.
"You can rest assured about this. We have cooperated with Azam for many years. We are aware of any major moves he makes. The last time he mobilized all his men to conduct large-scale excavations and obtain a wealth of treasures was in mid-to-late April three years ago. That means they excavated the remains of a book repairing society in April 1357. Considering the time it took those guys to prepare resources and rush to the scene, Azam should have used the divination tool a month earlier, which was around mid-to-late March 1357."
"Mid-to-late March of 1357... Now it is early March of 1360, which means that the divination item will be restored to divination status at the earliest in the middle to late March of this month, or at the latest next month. So it will be very important for me to get it."
Dorothy was thinking about this, and she also noticed a problem at the same time. If the divination tool was restored in the middle and late part of this month, then Ghalib would naturally be aware of this problem and speed up his plan. She was not the only one who wanted to get the divination tool, and she might encounter some obstacles at that time.
"Thank you for the information, it is very useful to me."
"I hope it works for you. Whether it's Ghalib or the Dark Gold Society, we just want to disgust them."
Afterwards, Dorothy and Beverly exchanged a few brief words with each other, and then Beverly said goodbye and "wenxi". Dorothy also closed the "Wenhai Hangzhi" and ate the last bit of ham. She decided to read the two "Stone" secret books she had just obtained to replenish her spirituality.
Just like that, Dorothy, who was sitting in the suite, wiped her mouth while controlling Brandon, who was rushing back in a carriage from afar, to open the oil paper package obtained from the dispatched person from the Artisans' Guild, took out two secret books from it, and started to read the top one.
…
This first secret book is a manuscript, the author of which is named Cole Wright. This person is not only known to Dorothy, but also to many people in the world. The reason is that he is the inventor and improver of the steam engine in the world.
Cole Wright was a figure who lived more than half a century ago. In Dorothy's middle school textbook, he was recorded as one of the greatest inventors of this era. The steam engine he invented and improved directly triggered the steam revolution in the world. He was also a pioneer in applying steam power to production and life. The steam locomotive in this world was also invented by him. Everyone with a little culture in this world knows his name.
According to the contents of this manuscript, in the mortal world, Cole Wright is a great inventor, but in the secret world, Cole Wright is also a powerful Beyonder of Stone, a high-ranking member of the Stonemasons Union, and a loyal believer of the God of Craftsmen and Forges.
In the eyes of ordinary people, Cole Wright is a great inventor, but in fact his true talents are far more than what ordinary people know. This manuscript records many other unknown designs and inventions of Cole Wright, all of which are secret and extraordinary.
For example, a steam core that can replace horse-drawn carriages by miniaturizing a huge steam engine. For example, a jetpack that can use the "shadow" storage as power, allowing ordinary people to have the ability to fly. For example, a submarine that can dive into the deep sea. The manuscript also discusses the selection of more efficient ordinary fuels besides coal...
Page after page, Dorothy could see countless amazing inventions and designs of Cole Wright in the manuscript. If these inventions and designs could be adopted and promoted, then the whole world and the whole society would be changed. But Dorothy also understood that the knowledge on the pages of this book also doomed such a possibility to never become a reality.
…
"As Beverly said, those great figures who promote world change are almost all extraordinary people in various fields. Mr. Cole is a good example... Looking at his manuscripts, many of them have extremely exquisite designs. If it weren't for the existence of Poison Identification, he might be able to completely change the world."
After reading the manuscript in front of her, Dorothy sighed in her heart, thinking that this great inventor must be highly regarded by the Core of the Order to be chosen by Him as the pioneer of the steam revolution. In addition, he is one of the top leaders of the Stonemasons Union, and he may even be a follower of the Core of the Order.
After finishing reading the first secret message, Dorothy asked Brandon in the carriage in the distance to put away the book in his hand, and then took out the second secret message and began to read it.
