"So what's going on?"
Arthur got on the carriage. Blue Jade, who had been following him, was sitting in the carriage. When she saw him come back, she asked directly.
"It's not bad. He didn't pull out a gun and kill me. Instead, he was willing to have a good talk... But the conditions he wanted were a bit difficult."
Arthur glanced at the several carriages parked outside. Inside the Winchester office, there was continuous laughter of joy.
It seemed that all this was part of Lorenzo's plan. When he was willing to show up on his own initiative, everyone was already in his script and things were developing as he had expected. Arthur was sure that he had even anticipated his arrival, and perhaps when the conversation between the two might become bad, these women would come to the rescue.
"What conditions?"
Lan Feicui was a little confused. She didn't think Lorenzo would put forward any greedy conditions.
"He's going to see Queen Victoria... Even I can't see her easily, let alone Lorenzo."
This gave Arthur a headache. Although the Victorian royal family seldom appeared in public and were also troubled by the royal curse, Arthur always had a strange premonition that this mysterious royal family was not as fragile as it seemed. The fact that they still ruled Inglvig was the best proof.
This feeling is hard to describe, but it has to be said that every decision made by the Victorian royal family was extremely precise.
Some people still don't understand why steam technology was abandoned in favor of armor technology. Even Arthur was troubled for a while, but later he figured it out.
This problem is not difficult to solve. Jiuxia is too far away from the Western world, so far that the Western world can basically ignore their existence. Moreover, judging from the current development, there are no technical barriers to basic steam technology. As long as there is a steam engine, its principles can be easily deconstructed. Inglvig does not need to hold on to these things. All it needs to do is to take the lead.
While other countries are still carrying out industrial reforms, the Perpetual Motion Pump has already developed third-generation armor that can be mass-produced based on the accumulated technologies. In the future, this will be the backbone of the fight against demons, but at the same time, when the war breaks out, this will be the legion that changes the situation.
Arthur didn't dare to think about what would happen next. He had thought about this in the dead of night. When the demons were eradicated, where would they go
He rubbed his head tiredly and leaned back in his chair.
"I will report this to the Queen. I hope it goes smoothly. What else is planned?"
As the carriage slowly started moving, Arthur asked about Blue Emerald's recent affairs.
"Negotiations with the Evangelical Church are still ongoing. They have completely angered us this time, but the new Pope replied that all this was not his instruction, but Father Anthony's private action..."
"A scapegoat? Actually, we all know what happened, but no one wants to tear each other apart if it's not necessary."
Arthur closed his eyes, his heart filled with rage, and he wished he could kill Anthony with his own hands, but due to various factors, he couldn't do so.
This is the adult world. There is no good or evil, only advantages and disadvantages.
