Days Of Getting Rich In Another World Chapter 707

The first thing that Zhao Xu thought of at this time was a famous animation about alchemy. There was a relatively intuitive discussion on the equivalent exchange, and this principle was applied here. world seems to do the same.

"What's the price then?" Zhao Xu asked.

"Human life." Petrov replied coldly.

Zhao Xu heard sucked in a cold breath, this answer is not particularly surprising to him, after all, there was a similar plot in the anime I mentioned before, such a magical spell , In addition to the precious life, what is worthy of the price?

"How do I operate it?"

"Actually, my alchemy uses human life force as energy, but human life force varies in strength, so the required quantity It's not the same, for example, a few cases like this pure gold would require about three to four lives."

"So many!?" Zhao Xu said in surprise.

Petrov smiled: "I think it's worth exchanging a few lives for so much gold with trifling. After all, many people in this world are worthless. Besides, Lord, you are a person who has gone to war. Isn’t that the case with wars too? From this point of view, I think alchemy requires less sacrifice, but the effect may be greater.”

“That’s not what I said. , people on the battlefield can at least fight back, and besides, the outcome of the war depends on many factors, not whoever sacrifices more will win."

"Oh, I'm not a soldier, and some comparisons may not be accurate. I just want to let the lord understand that you must sacrifice if you get it."

"I understand this, so there is no other way to replace it?"

"For the time being, I have not I found it, anyway, there are some damned guys in this world, even if they don’t change, it doesn’t matter.” Petrov said this remark with a relaxed face, as if he didn’t take human life seriously at all, but Zhao Xu was a little hesitant at this time. There is some truth to denying Petrov's words. The golden-bright and dazzling cases and vases are also very tempting, but Zhao Xu always feels that it is too cruel to do so. Is the key value worth it?

"I can't make up my mind on this matter for now, let me think about it, but I appreciate your ability and welcome you to join the special collar. If you like it, I will give it to you in a while. You arrange room and board, as for the specific job arrangements, I will discuss with other senior management later." In the end, Zhao Xu decided to put this matter on hold for now.

Petrov seemed a little unwilling to hear it, he stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, you don't need to hesitate about this matter, don't you also want to bring equality and happiness to the world? These my alchemy are all To be able to do it, it is nothing more than sacrificing some lives, but it is not worth mentioning compared with the great goal we want to achieve. Those who died would definitely lose their goals if they knew that their death could bring so much contribution to the world.”

Zhao Xu said with a bitter smile: "What you said is not unreasonable. Wealth can bring people many things, but in the final analysis, wealth serves human beings, not the other way around. Of course I also Many people are also willing to sacrifice for the well-being of the public, but this seems to be different from exchanging life for gold. I understand that you are well-intentioned, but as a lord, I have to consider this matter carefully.”

Petrov looked at Zhao Xu with complicated eyes, it seemed that he didn't realize that the man in front of him was far more complicated and difficult than he expected, and finally Petrov sighed lightly: "Alas, lord, are you still It's kind and generous, well, I'm just a warlock after all, since you can't make up your mind for the time being, I can't force it, everything is up to your arrangement."

Zhao Xu smiled and said some comforting words at that time. Then, I asked Secretary Albertini to take Petrov to arrange room and board, and by the way, I found someone to store the cases and vases that turned into gold. This matter has to be kept strictly confidential for the time being. After all, most people in this world He still can't remain calm in the face of such temptation like Zhao Xu.

Actually, even Aqua, Hina and the others who were in charge of the transportation were surprised when they saw this scene. Most of them were experts and soon realized that this might be the rumored alchemy Zhao Xu also consulted them about this. It is said that alchemy has always been recognized as a theory in the magic world, and many people have indeed succeeded in it, but the problem lies in energy and production. Who can fundamentally solve these problems? Therefore, although this project has attracted a large number of people to devote themselves to research, it has not been able to promote it. From this perspective, if what Petrov used is not a trick, then he may be a milestone in the history of alchemy. This time around, even Ye Yen, who has always hated these heretical warlocks, persuaded Zhao Xu that he must keep this Petrov, which might be of great use.

Although Zhao Xu is still a little hesitant about exchanging human life for gold, he also understands that this Petrov is a talented person, so he specially takes care of Yousi to give him preferential treatment, and at the same time asks the Council of Elders to discuss what position to assign him. , but Zhao Xu paid more attention this time, and said that the effect of Petrov's alchemy was much smaller. This is not because he wanted to hide his secrets, but because he knew that these members of the old society also have different personalities. More bluntly, the good and the bad are even mixed. If it is said that Petrov's alchemy has such an amazing effect, it is difficult to guarantee what these members will do. Wealth can not only bring happiness to people, but also the fuse of many evils. Therefore, Zhao Xu decided to make reservations for the time being before many issues were unclear.

In fact, even if Zhao Xu said that Petrov's ability was much smaller, it still caused a commotion in the elders. I was very interested in the matter, and finally, after deliberation, it was decided to grant Petrov a venue and a grant to let him concentrate on his research on alchemy in order to obtain greater results. He looked at many members of the Council of Elders Zhao Xu was suddenly a little fortunate in the appearance of the light. Fortunately, he didn't reveal the truth, otherwise God knows what everyone will do. Originally, Zhao Xu's views on this matter were relatively positive, and he was hesitant. It was just gold, but now Zhao Xu suddenly felt that it might be a mistake to take in Petrov, and he might have planted a ticking time bomb for the special leader.

After that, the venue and funds were soon in place. Petrov was still a little dissatisfied at first. Maybe in his opinion, he should get more reuse, but Zhao Xu came out to comfort him at this time. , the words also showed that he was not very sure about Petrov's ability. Petrov was a smart man, and he sensed Zhao Xu's thoughts, so he didn't complain any more, and temporarily engaged in alchemy research with peace of mind. It seems that he He is very confident in his own abilities and thinks that the special leader will realize his own value sooner or later.

Ron and Siegfried plan to set off for Imperial Capital shortly after the arrangement. They are both working at Imperial Court, and it is impossible to stay here for a long time. Although Zhao Xu is a little different. He gave up, but it was inconvenient to keep him. On the day of his parting, he personally sent the entire group out of Roger Town.
