In the large conference room, Chekaf listened to Richard and chuckled.

"Wizard Richard, you think I'm targeting you?"

"No, no, no. Chekaf shook his head and gave a completely negative answer, "Wizard Richard, you think too much, I am not targeting you, and I have no reason to target you, everything I do is just for the sake of the organization." I didn't know that the real owner of the mine was yours, and I did sabotage and kill people to facilitate the investigation.

Seriously, if you really don't have a weak heart, you should stand on the bright side and tell everyone that you are the owner of the mine, then there will be no such twists and turns. ”

Seeing that Richard was about to speak again, Chekaf preemptively said: "Also, if it is true that you did not betray the organization as you said, then you may be able to explain some of the things you used in the mine." For example, the 'fire thunder' that destroys ore, and the 'rail minecart' that is under construction. Why did this suddenly appear in your mines, so there had to be some reason, right?"

"Reason?" Richard listened, his expression indifferent, "Dear Ombudsman, if you have to have a reason, it's very simple, it's my brain. ”

"Brains?"

"Yes, brains. Richard nodded his forehead lightly and said, "The 'fire thunder' and 'railroad minecart' you mentioned in my mine were all made by me after thinking about it. It looks amazing, but in reality, there is not much esoteric knowledge.

For example, 'Fire Thunder', his prototype is barrels of ignited black powder. As far as I know, more and more pirate ships have begun to abandon broadside warfare in favor of gunfire to plunder merchant ships. They poured barrels of black powder into barrels of fine iron, loaded them with solid buckshots, lit them, and fired them to bombard the sides of merchant ships.

After several shellings, the hull of the merchant ship was severely damaged, slowing down at least and skewed into the water. After that, you can only surrender to the pirates and let the pirates plunder, otherwise they will be sunk directly.

The fire thunder powder used in 'Fire Thunder' is not fundamentally different from black powder, except that I have adjusted the proportion of some subtle components to increase its power, which can be used to better demolish mines and mine ores. This kind of thing may be mysterious in the eyes of ordinary people, but for wizards like us, it is actually not in the eyes at all.

On the one hand, it is cumbersome and expensive to make, and on the other hand, the range of use is not small, it is too cumbersome, and it is completely crushed by spells. I guess that shouldn't be a fuss.

As for the 'Minecart Rails', it's even less worth mentioning. Because there is nothing surprising about it at all, except that the carriage walking on the road has been turned into a carriage walking on special railroad tracks. I believe that as long as a person is not stupid, after reading it, he can just gather a few craftsmen to copy it. I even suspect that there may be these 'minecarts' in many places.

The reason why this 'railroad minecart' did not become popular was simply because it was cumbersome and expensive to make. The cost of manufacturing, laying, correcting, and maintaining rails alone far exceeds the cost of ordinary horse-drawn carriages. Seriously, if this kind of 'rail minecart' can't bring enough benefits with increased efficiency, it is a loss-making approach. In this case, no matter how you look at it, you don't need to take it seriously. ”

"That's it. Chekaf listened and did not change his attitude, "Wizard Richard, maybe these two things, like what you said, don't need to be fussed about and not taken seriously, but I still doubt your motives for hiding from the organization." ”

"I didn't hide it from the organization. Richard said.

"Huh?" Chkaaf frowned, as if he hadn't heard clearly.

"I didn't hide it from the organization. Richard said again, explaining, "Yes, I did say that neither 'Fire Thunder' nor 'Minecart' is worth mentioning. But as I've said before, I'm willing to contribute to the organization, so I've already documented the details of these two things to Wizard Bobopol Vic to the organization's branch. ”

"What you said is true?" Chkaev's gaze changed, and his face became half red and half white, not very good-looking.

"Of course it's true. "Actually, I've contributed more than just these two things to the organization." For example, suggestions for improving the communication method of the crystal ball.

According to my suggestion, the crystal ball can be used to represent a specific character in a specific flashing way, so as to completely convey a certain length of text, so that the two sides of the crystal ball can communicate more efficiently and accurately.

This is much more important than the 'fire thunder' and 'rail minecart', which can effectively reduce the mistakes of the organization and enhance the exchange of information over long distances.

However, I was a little disappointed that the response from the organization to my suggestion was not very strong. Wizard Joseph has just told me that it may take years for this to take effect. Then I think that my 'Fire Thunder' and 'Railroad Minecart' documents should be even less valued, and they may still be pressed at the bottom of that file box now. ”

Chekaf stopped talking, looked at Richard, his eyes suspicious, and after a while turned his head to look at the steward Canon, seeking confirmation.

Canon didn't hesitate, first called Joseph in the audience to ask a few questions, and then asked the other party to go to the database to collect documents.

When the two documents arrived, it was confirmed that half a month ago, the wizard Popbo Vecchio had indeed submitted the documents about "Fire Thunder" and "Minecart Rails", and Chekav's expression became very exciting.

At this time, Rommel, the director who had been "closing his eyes and recuperating", suddenly opened his eyes, first glanced at the two documents, and then at Chekaf. After that, he didn't say anything and closed his eyes again, but the atmosphere in the conference room began to change subtly.

Chekav clenched his fists, the veins under his skin protruding, staring at Richard and taking a deep breath, slowly regaining his composure.

Opening his mouth, Chekaf spoke up: "Okay, Wizard Richard, maybe I misunderstood you." You really don't have any suspicions about 'Fire Thunder' and 'Minecart Rails'. Actually, it's not that that I'm really trying to pursue, it's the ore powder in your factory's secret warehouse. ”

As he spoke, Chekaf bent down and with a sharp force, lifted up a heavy lead box under his feet, and with a "bang", it was heavily placed on the top of the ring table.

Rao is table quality is passing, and he can't help but "squeak" and shake it.

Chekaf gasped a few times, and with a "click" he opened the lead box, revealing the gray mineral dust inside, and looked at Richard with wide eyes.

"Wizard Richard, I want to ask, what is this thing, and why do you hide this thing tightly in your small factory warehouse and send so many people to guard it?"
