Chapter 124

Langdon Hood is an absolutely faithful and standard "knowledge-only".

He belongs to the Mechanics of the Truth Society and is a panic-level scholar under Director Rowell Fitch. He is very accomplished in gun manufacturing and is an avid heavy firepower enthusiast.

——As a reminder, Fitch, the director of mechanics, and Leonard, the director of alchemy, are old friends who have a very good relationship. They were the two who made fun of each other in Andrew's office before.

Fitch was closer to Andrew before, but after Andrew was impeached and monitored collectively, he was questioned and alienated by many scholars.

Moreover, the attack on Mechanical Reincarnation this time also means that Fei Qi has committed a major dereliction of duty. If the other vice president wanted to monopolize the power and put all the responsibility on Andrew, maybe Fei Qi would be directly beaten to the end now. up.

Of course, the main reason is that the "mud tire" project has consumed a lot of manpower, material and financial resources, but now the best results have been directly snatched away by others.

What's more, the remaining experimental products, including the laboratories and factories, were basically destroyed, which means that all the previous investment has become someone else's wedding dress, and even lost a lot of losses. How can we not let people angry? !

The truth will go up and down. There were a large number of people who opposed the "mud tire" plan before, and now they are even more scolding. They directly cancel the "mud tire" plan, stop the loss in time, divert all resources, and focus on the development of a more practical exoskeleton. armor.

In short, this attack made Mechanics, which was already in an embarrassing position and had serious internal struggles, even worse.

Even Fitch's subordinates also suffered. They had no funds and no projects. Before they were taken over by the new project, they were completely idle.

And in this case, some information about the bookstore that Andrew had revealed to the "knowledge-only faction" before suddenly became the main task of these scholars.

In fact, even if Andrew's order was not intercepted, they would still go to the bookstore.

For the "knowledge-only school", there is nothing more fascinating than knowledge.

If so, that's more knowledge!

They are fanatics in general religions, constantly chasing knowledge, and possessing it by any means, especially like to plunder directly from others.

Some people who resist the "knowledge-only school" even call them "spirit-sucking monsters" to express their moral contempt for this group.

However, the "Great Knowledge Sect" or the Tower of Mysteries of the Truth Society have no way to sanction them. After all, what they plundered was only knowledge, and did not cause any harm to the lives, will and souls of these people.

And the knowledge of the plundered is not irrecoverable, it just needs to be relearned.

It can be said that this is a group of extrajudicial lunatics, who just stepped on the boundary line where extraordinary people cannot attack ordinary people.

After all, if the behavior of the "knowledge-only faction" is a violation of the agreement, then the act of the supernatural being to erase the memory of ordinary people is even more guilty.

Among the Truth Society, the number of "knowledge-only faction" accounts for about one-twentieth, while the "broad-knowledge faction" who believes that knowledge should be widely disseminated is only one percent.

Therefore, the "knowledge-only school" can even be regarded as a school that occupies a large part of the Truth Society, and should not be underestimated.

These people are not fools. Don't confuse them with the definition of ordinary people, those academics who are so fanatical about knowledge that they can't take care of themselves so that they look a little stupid.

On the contrary, they are ambitious, paranoid, unscrupulous, and even disregarding human life.

It is a group of out-and-out - "lunatics".

When Andrew's second interception order was issued, several "knowledge-only" lunatics headed by Hood were already on the 23rd street.

They carefully chose to observe first.

Among the news that Andrew revealed to them, there was doubt about the strength of the owner of the bookstore. Hood was very curious about this, so he took a longer time to observe.

In fact, after watching it for about a week and a half, Hood felt that this did not conform to what a strong person in the normal concept should look like.

Forget about anything else, even looking for the Ash Chamber of Commerce for decoration is too much, and it doesn't look like a strong man at all!

If it's lazy, isn't this kind of thing easy for high-level powerhouses?

Wouldn't it be even more troublesome to have to talk and pretend to be a matter of thinking about it.

If it is for amusing and interesting, then it can barely be explained.

But it is slightly contradictory to the mysterious and unpredictable image of the owner of the bookstore who likes to push books.

Because the people from the Ash Chamber of Commerce came and went in a hurry, and they didn't see any books with them.

Several "knowledge-only faction" looked at it for a long time, and finally agreed that these people from the Ash Chamber of Commerce were specially invited to repair the house.

This is very strange.

A bold guess emerged in the minds of several people who were already called "lunatics"—maybe this bookstore owner, who is feared by many forces, and the man behind the scenes who summoned the ancient elf king in the legend, has no power .

Without power, not necessarily ordinary people.

But he may have lost or been limited in strength for some reason.

These lunatics were inexplicably excited about their discovery, and they were even more looking forward to the next action. After several discussions, they decided to make a move tonight, sneak into the bookstore, and first test the knowledge in the bookstore and the owner of the bookstore.

And another thing that Hood is very concerned about is the assistant of the owner of the bookstore.

Under Fitch's command, Hood naturally participated in the "mud tire" project.

Although his field of expertise is not in biology, he couldn't stand the lack of people for the "mud tire" project, so Hood worked in the laboratory for a while.

He has an impression of those artificial humans.

And it just so happened that he had seen this assistant before.

Hood was almost convinced that the scar on the assistant's neck must have been caused by removing the barcode.

night.

A "spirit sucker" from the Truth Society pried open the door of the bookstore. Like a group of robbers, to steal the most precious thing - knowledge.

"You guys are downstairs, check the contents of the book first, and retreat immediately if you find something is wrong, understand?"

After Hood gave the order, he raised the gun in his hand vigilantly, and slowly walked up the stairs.

The lightweight exoskeleton armor made no sound, and the invisible layer not only concealed his whereabouts, made him as light as a cat, but also erased his breath.

The owner of the bookstore didn't even arrange a basic protective circle, which made his guess more and more solid.

Hood moved his steps carefully, and finally came to Lin Jie's bedroom.
