Rebirth in America - Chapter 381

c380 There are countless talented people

Even those in the ruling class must abide by relevant rules.

It is impossible for him to give up his stable ruling position in the future for the sake of immediate interests. Before he had wealth and status, he always thought that the people above him were those who liked to break rules and ignore them. Now it seems that these views are all prejudice.

The rules and regulations set by the rulers themselves are bound to be the most beneficial to them. If you can’t abide by it yourself, how can you expect others to abide by it? Once there is no protection of rules and systems, no matter how much wealth the rulers have, they will only be illusory bubbles that will eventually be completely overturned by the people at the bottom.

By that time, no one cares about the rules and regulations, and no one will abide by the laws set by the rulers.

Alex still remembers that he once read this sentence: “Rulers must strictly enforce the law, and ordinary people like super shortcuts and take the back door!”

At the time, he didn’t quite understand it, and was a little confused and even disgusted. Only when he was in this position did he really understand. A qualified ruler must work hard to maintain the rules he has set.

To put it simply, rulers abide by the rules they set, but are not bound by the rules! Civilians are afraid of rules and want to get rid of them completely!

This is what he has been thinking about over the years. It is simple to say, but it is still very difficult to really understand.

There are many people who want to get the key to the “Sage’s Legacy”. If Alex had a choice, he would want to sell one to everyone. Unfortunately, the key code left behind by Tesla is somewhat special. Although it is expressed in numbers, it is actually a series of numbers composed of special energy, and these numbers are constantly changing.

After such a long period of research, he finally determined that Tesla used spiritual energy to synthesize a group of changing random values. Only the key itself can calculate this set of random values, and other people cannot get the calculation formula of this set of values ​​at all, only the person who has mastered the key. Only then can the space on the moon be opened and enter the treasure house of the sage’s legacy.

In other words, Alex cannot copy it into multiple keys, it is unique!

Empire State Building, New York.

In a tightly surrounded room. After arrangements by relevant departments, Alex met with the big guys who wanted to get involved in the “Sage’s Legacy”.

At first, the first person to arrive at the meeting place was a woman with blond hair and black robe. She looked familiar, but she didn’t know where she had seen her before.

In the Freemasonry and the Illuminati, there are many big guys who don’t care much about current affairs. They all live in seclusion in their own territories and rarely have contact with outsiders. For Alex, a newcomer, there are people he has never met. Many times, it is normal to not recognize them.

That’s why it’s so strange. Alex actually felt that he should know the other person, but he had never met him in person. This is somewhat intriguing.

“Hello!”

Alex nodded to the other party and said hello, wanting to know what this woman’s background was. Judging from the pale complexion of the other person, he was probably another vampire, and he seemed to be around 20 to 30 years old. As for the real age, it is not very clear.

This woman in black robe has dark blond hair and ordinary facial features. She does not have the handsome appearance of other transformed vampires. This situation is rare, and many people will choose a new appearance after being transformed. Even if I don’t deliberately change my appearance, it will gradually change in that direction under the influence of blood. For example, this is the case with Janis and others.

Only certain people. Only people with extremely strong hearts can in turn affect the power of their bloodline, so that their own changes are not so obvious, and they are still the same person. However, Alex was not sure whether this was the case for the woman in front of him.

After the woman in black robe saw Alex. He immediately showed a faint smile: “Hello, Alex! I have heard your name a long time ago. Transistors, computers, rockets, satellites… these all have traces of your influence, especially the recent rise of personal computers. and the internet, I’m really fascinated by this stuff!”

oh? It turns out that this is a big shot in technology?

Alex thought to himself. But he quickly said: “These achievements are all achieved by standing on the shoulders of the sages, and they are not the glory of me alone!”

The woman in black robe nodded and said: “In our era, many civilizational heritages have been lost. In order to return these treasures to our human hands again, I can only shamelessly ask you for the key to the sage’s heritage.”

Having said this, Alex couldn’t help but ask: “What is your name?”

The woman in black robe couldn’t help laughing after hearing this: “Haha, I forgot that you just became one of us not long ago, and you haven’t recognized everyone yet. Well, one of the names I once used was Marie Skłodowska!”

Mary Skłodowska? I don’t think I’ve heard of it!

Alex showed a thoughtful look, and the lady Mary said: “Or you can call me Marie Curie. After I married Pierre, I took my husband’s surname for a while, but now there is no one.” Most people call me ‘Madam’ when they call me this!”

Hearing the word “Curie”, Alex was shocked and immediately remembered who the woman in front of him was. Because the images in his memory were too vague, the time was wrong, and the temperament would change after becoming a vampire, he never thought that she was “Madame Curie”!

This is the famous “Madame Curie”! Although in the eyes of the public, Marie Curie died long ago in 1934, in fact she became a “human master” and was transformed into a vampire, gaining a long life!

What can be said is that without Madame Curie’s discovery, there would be no scientific and technological achievements such as atomic bombs, hydrogen bombs, and nuclear power plants. Madame Curie is worthy of being the first person to steal the sun’s fire for mankind. Her achievements are not only the public radioactive theories, but also more scientific results that have not been published.

Alex didn’t know that Marie Curie was actually a member of the sage lineage. She is able to become a “superior” not only because of her intelligence, but also because of the power she holds in her hands. Now, in order to pursue the true meaning of science and absorb the knowledge of ancient sages, they risk their lives to find the key to the sages’ legacy.

The two had a little contact and found that everyone got along well with each other. In Alex’s eyes, Marie Curie was a famous female scientist in history. He actually has an IQ, brain, and reaction speed that are not weaker than his own. In addition, he had great admiration for Madame Curie, so he seemed much more lively when chatting.

For Marie Curie, Alex is a new genius who has emerged in recent years, holding the key to the sage’s legacy. It has created many new scientific and technological research directions and achieved great results. However, such a young and famous person actually has a humble and polite appearance, which makes people feel comfortable getting along with him.

After a while, Alex learned from Madame Curie that two other big bosses had arrived. The three of them each represent a side of the force, and they all want to get the key to the sage’s legacy.

“There are two more people? Who are they?” Alex asked.

Madame Curie no longer answered, but smiled mysteriously: “You will know when they arrive!”

As soon as he finished speaking, another person walked in from outside the door. What surprised Alex was that this man was wrapped in a set of silver armor. Even his face was covered by a helmet, making him look like a knight from the Middle Ages.

“Why does this guy have to wear such heavy armor? Isn’t he tired at all? This is so inconvenient!” Alex thought to himself.

The armored knight walked up to them with a clang, paused for a while, and put up his mask. A slightly tired face was revealed, that of a very old man with a gray beard.

“Madam, why are you here first? Didn’t we agree to come together?” said the old man with a gray beard. His voice seemed to come from metal friction, which was quite uncomfortable to hear.

Madame Curie did not answer, but smiled slightly.

Before Alex could speak. The armored old man turned to him and said: “Hello, Alex! My name is Isaac Newton! You can call me Lord Newton, or you can just call me by my name!”

Cow, Newton! Could it be the Newton in history?

Alex looked at Newton’s beard strangely, thinking that in the information he had seen before, Newton always looked white and beardless. Why have you become so sloppy now? And what’s going on with this armor?

Perhaps seeing what Alex was thinking, Madame Curie whispered in his ear: “This old monster is no longer human. He transformed himself into a semi-mechanical creature, equivalent to a robot. He has no emotions and only reason. and knowledge!”

“Robot? Is today’s technology so advanced?” Alex was startled. I thought I was in the wrong era and traveled back in time again.

Even after hearing the two people talking about him, the mechanical monster Newton was not angry, and did not even show any expression. Instead, he said calmly: “I am not a robot, it’s just that you are rare and strange! This body was created by me using alchemy. It will allow me to live forever until I understand the truth of the universe!”

alchemy? It seems like I heard something amazing! Alex thought so in his mind.

Madame Curie nodded and praised: “Mr. Newton is indeed worthy of being a master of alchemy. He was able to obtain immortal life through this method!”

Speaking of alchemy, Alex thought of the “Devil Breaking Gun” on his waist. It is said that this gun was also made using alchemy, and there are only two left in the world. One of them was in his hand, and the other was still with Angelina.

If alchemy could create a gun as powerful as a laser cannon, then it wouldn’t be that difficult to create a half-machine, half-living artificial human.

Upon closer inspection, Alex soon discovered that Newton’s neck was covered with black metal material, and even his head had an inhuman feel, without the slightest breath of life.

Before they could say much, another person came in from outside the door. This time, a beautiful woman walked in, someone who didn’t look unusual at all. Just like ordinary people on the street, their clothes and faces are very ordinary. If he had seen such a woman in other places, Alex would definitely not have any special thoughts.

But this is the place where they met. Outside, in addition to the field staff sent by the Freemasons, there are also bodyguards brought by each of them. Alex brought the Justifas and Janis over, partly to fill the scene and partly just in case.

These people were arranged outside the room, watching this place all the time, carefully guarding the safety of their respective owners. If any ordinary person could walk in casually, it would be an incredible thing.

“Oh haha, are you all here?” The woman looked around. He suddenly spoke.

Madame Curie frowned and sighed: “Dante, have you changed your body again?”

“Yes, my last body has been damaged by me. I originally wanted to repair it, but I have to rush to meet you, so I have to find someone to use it!” Dante’s tone was very normal, just change the body. Just like changing clothes, it doesn’t seem to be a big deal.

“Sooner or later you will kill yourself!” Marie Curie said.

“According to my analysis, Dante, every time you change your body, you will lose part of your memory. In the end, you may not be you anymore!” Newton on the side also said.

Dante shrugged after hearing this and said with a smile: “It doesn’t matter. After all, people live too long, so they need to forget something. Otherwise, won’t the world become more and more boring? Only by forgetting can we make ourselves aware of The world stays fresh.”

From their conversation, Alex soon knew. It turns out that this beautiful woman is actually the famous Dante Alighieri in history, an Italian poet and a pioneer of the European Renaissance. That is, the outstanding poet who wrote the “Divine Comedy” is now a lonely ghost, possessing the body of a man who has just died.

The pleasantries between the three people did not last long, and the topic soon turned to the legacy of the sage. Madame Curie looked at Alex and said, “Now let’s talk about the key!”

As soon as these words came out. All three of them stared at Alex as if he had flowers on his face. During this, they each used their own abilities to peek at Alex intentionally or unintentionally.

Several waves of energy came out, almost breaking through Alex’s ripple energy and entering his body.

Within these types of energy. There was an energy that made Alex seem to smell a strong smell of blood, and his eyes suddenly turned red, making people feel both warm and cold. This is the energy unique to vampires, probably released by Madame Curie.

Alex’s ripple energy is inherently resistant to vampires. This energy was only tested for a little while and then immediately retracted.

There is also an energy that is extremely hot, burning the skin like a flame. It does not give in when encountering ripple energy, and is extremely domineering. It was like the flames of the sun, burning toward Alex. It seems that its properties are the same as ripple energy, but ripple energy is gentler and belongs to the power of life, while this energy belongs to the power of destruction.

Although Alex’s time to practice Immortal Breathing was short-lived, his talent was not bad after all. In addition, after experiencing the battle with the Poison Earl, his control and use of ripple energy had been greatly improved.

Although that energy wants to burn through the protective layer of ripple energy and rush into Alex’s body, the ripple energy is like the sea water in the Pacific Ocean. No matter how much the other party burns, there will be no change. .

Soon, this energy gave up and did not continue to test. Judging from the nature of the energy, it should be the alchemical energy belonging to Lord Newton.

Only the last wave of cold energy was as erratic as a loach, surrounding Alex, constantly looking for flaws, trying to break through.

At first, Alex endured it without making any unnecessary moves, hoping that the other party would take it back on his own. But this energy just wouldn’t recede, making him feel very annoyed. Finally, Alex leaned forward slightly, and the ripple energy on his body spurted out, exploding the energy.

Everyone felt the ripple energy burst out. In their eyes, it was as if they saw Alex’s body suddenly light up, as if the sun was shining on him.

Dante snorted, obviously a little hurt by what Alex did to him, but it shouldn’t be serious, but his face was already wiped out. It made her feel a little embarrassed, and she was about to have a fit and pinch the other person.
