Chapter 484 (2/2)
”Victor Hughes, who dares to confront the Archbishop head-on... Will never be afraid of a group of mediocre and confused curfews!”
”After all, it's only a few years. Victor Hughes, who was not afraid of power, how could he become a villain who did not hesitate to sacrifice others for the sake of the overall situation?”
The black haired wizard raised his mouth and said in a heavy voice, ”so... There should be only one reason why you can persist until now, even let a poor man who may be innocent go to hell, and make his family worse than death, right?”
Victor stared at him.
”If master lusack is acquitted, it will hurt the interests of the civilian class.” Loren's expression is very subtle: ”I don't know why, but... This should be the only possible reason.”
”So I really don't understand that a little alchemist would hurt the interests of the whole civilian class?” Loren stared at him thoughtfully, and the joints of his index finger kept beating the table: ”Lord Victor, please tell me... Why?”
Victor was silent for a long time.
Until he was sure that the dark haired wizard would not look away, he slowly said, ”you... Really don't know why?”
”I hope I don't know, because I don't want to believe that the answer I know... Is true.” Lauren's eyes were sharp: ”I don't want to believe that the former chief justice, who is consecutively called 'justice', also resisted wizards like crazy believers.”
Victor supported his arms on the table and gently moved forward: ”two years ago, the Royal wizard college and the pharmacist guild in the imperial capital once launched a motion in the house of Lords, hoping to provide medical assistance to the slums of gloven in the name of the pharmacist guild and the Empire.”
”Of course... There are only the most basic cough drops and some common medicines that can purify the water source - I still remember clearly that they said at that time that 'take the imperial slum as an experimental field to prepare for the large-scale promotion of basic treatment in the future', and even intend to extend this practice to the whole Saxony and even the whole empire.”
”I don't understand, isn't that good?” Lauren frowned slightly. ”Indeed... Their actions may be to attract people or gain reputation and change people's understanding of wizards - but with all due respect, if they really do, they should.”
”That's right... Because I was on their side and did not hesitate to offend the church. I fully supported the passage of this motion.”
Victor stared at him with chilling eyes, and his tone became more and more heavy: ”but you know... What did those poor wizards who were grateful to the wizards who treated them do?”
Loren's pupils shrank suddenly and he didn't feel very good.
”I don't know magic, and I don't know much about many subjects of your wizards.” Victor's voice was very flat, but the dark haired wizard could still hear the anger in his voice:
”Lord Loren Turin, you tell me... What exactly does' large-scale living experiment 'mean?”
Looking at his icy, murderous eyes, Loren trembled slightly.
”I really know for the first time that people can be poisoned alive like mice. It can even make the deaths of thousands of people seem worthless...”
”I saw for the first time... The child with dyspnea... So small... Three or five years old... Tore her throat with her little black hands...”
”Do you know what I was doing?”
”At that time... I held her... Held her in my arms and ran to the nearest clinic... Until the blood sprayed on my face... I didn't find it coming...”
Victor cried, his eyes red with tears, but he didn't feel it.
Loren didn't speak.
From the moment Victor told the truth, he had no room to continue arguing.
”In those years, too many people were involved... Wizard class, nobles, military forces... Although the purpose was unknown, I think the research had involved the interests of many people, so it would be covered up so quickly.”
The former chief justice shook his head: ”you can't imagine that one day and one night, the whole street and the surrounding residents disappeared and became the new military camp of the imperial garrison... I didn't even have the opportunity to be interrogated, so I was forcibly closed!”
”But I still remember that the main person in charge of the project, the leading pharmacy master and alchemy expert in the imperial capital...”
”Lusaka kovo!”
