"I guess by daylight today, the headlines in Orean will be flooded with ’Mysterious Forces Invade the Orean Royal Capital’ and ’Research Results Stolen from the Orean Research Institute.’
By that ti, when the public delves into it, they’ll discover that the lost research from the Orean Research Institute is so significant that it could change the international standing of Orean.
With a little more understanding, the ’uncle’s party’ will co out to expose, saying ’On the day in the large laboratories of the Alchemy Furnace, only the gnos were not present, while the other two major forces suffered personnel losses.’
Conspiracy theories always have a market, no matter who started brewing the conspiracy originally, it will inevitably be pinned on the gnos in the end.
The gnos, who will provoke public outrage, will truly beco a stench in society, to say nothing of the fact that they aren’t exactly clean themselves.
The right to dominate public opinion is still in the hands of the royal family; as long as they list out every mistake the gnos have ever made, it would be enough to send this group of gnos to hell."
Hassaka and Lewis were both silent upon hearing this.
Dark, it’s unreasonably dark!
Lewis couldn’t help but exclaim, "The gnos are greedy for their status in Orean, and the Orean Royal Family wants to seize all the developntal achievents that the gnos have invested in the Orean Independent Kingdom over the years.
It’s an intent to completely cast off the gnos, to make them vomit out everything they had swallowed up earlier!"
Kael nodded.
In his previous life, when he was still a player, he had once operated in the region of the Orean Independent Kingdom, and at that ti the Orean Royal Family also took similar actions.
Therefore, Kael bet that the Orean Royal Family would, without hesitation, choose ’visible short-term benefits (referring to the gnos’ industries)’ over the ’intangible long-term future (referring to the energy core of the Elental Furnace).’
Facts proved that they indeed thought this way.
Although this bla is a bit far-fetched, the problem is that from the perspective of those halflings, such a conspiracy theory actually makes a lot of sense.
In reality or in hearsay, reports related to ’gnos stealing technical data from Orean’s Chamber of Comrce’ are not uncommon.
Fake business competition: "Mutual deception, stock market intelligence battles, plotting strategies behind the scenes."
Real business competition: "Rushing into company to seize seals; slandering employees of food companies defecating in production videos; widely spreading false promotional flyers about competitors..."
Gnos...they could really pull off such things!
In astonishnt, Hassaka asked with so doubt, "Haven’t the gnos considered that they might face sanctions, or even risk to their lives?"
Kael paused for a mont, then said in a deep voice, "No, they wouldn’t.
If there is a 50% profit, the gnos will take risks.
If there is a 100% profit, they dare to trample on all the laws of the human world.
If there is a 300% profit, they would commit any cri, even at the risk of being hanged.
When it cos to the love of money, the gnos are no less than dragons; they only imrse themselves in imnse profits, losing direction completely, becoming materialized lackeys, unable to see the abyss ahead."
The two nodded to indicate their understanding.
Kael looked at Lewis, the corner of his mouth curling into an almost cruel smile, and said:
"Lewis, this ti here, besides wanting to understand the actual situation in Orean, more importantly, is to make new arrangents for the Infiltrator Corps."
"Yes, Your will!"
"Don’t be nervous, what you are going to do this ti was sothing I snatched from other Ranger Corps, giving it to you because I have plenty of expectations for you."
When Kael said this, his words bore not a trace of warmth, just hearing him say this did not let Lewis feel like his Lord truly intended to give them a huge benefit.
But Kael’s following statent made him instantly understand why Kael’s tone was so cold.
Kael spoke of Midgar’s story, from being a wanderer with no fixed abode protecting his younger siblings, to becoming a ranger of the Lancaster Gray Eagle Cavalry, and later, dying under the hands of the Titan Giant to return intelligence in the first instance.
Now, even his only younger siblings were killed by desert snake n while traveling rchants were bound for Fransburg.
There is no greater sorrow in the world than this; when Midgar decided to sacrifice for the town where his siblings were, he didn’t realize that in the desert over two hundred miles away from Fransburg, his siblings’ bodies were already cold.
Just hearing this made Lewis’s anger rise.
Kael continued, "Several years ago, the number of rangers was far less than it is now; it was after many wanderers joined that more soldiers were gained from these wanderers, leading to the current developnt.
Such a loyal ranger, a qualified brother, a lover worth entrusting the future to, died just like that. I am unwilling to accept such an outco, yet I cannot retrieve the grief.
But... soone has to pay the price for this. If the blood of eleven major tribes is not enough to awaken the fear of those enemies, then use the blood of an entire race to awaken the fear buried in their bones!"
