Age of Mysticism Chapter 180

  Chapter 180 Counterattack Plan

  Hearing that Inspector Meteor is going to attack the City Alchemists Association, all three of them showed shocked expressions.

  Mrs. Mihir even stopped and said: "No, we can't provoke the City Alchemists Association."

  Raging Waves City's economic status is not only because of its special geographical environment, but also because there are a large number of official and private research institutions here. Here is the Oulu Academy, where you can get excellent talents nearby, and even get technical support from the academy. There are completed industries here, which can quickly turn new technologies into entities and produce them at the lowest cost; In a very short time, turn technology into wealth.

   Then put the wealth into the development of new technologies.

   It is this virtuous circle that created the current Raging Waves City.

  The Urban Alchemists Association of Raging Waves City is a combination of these scientific research institutions. It was originally established for the purpose of coordinating and subdividing a development project to various scientific research institutions. The association exists only as a technical exchange and integration organization, and is a purely technical organization.

  However, with the accumulation of technology and wealth of the Urban Alchemist Association of Raging Waves City, its influence on all aspects of the city is growing. When the association realized that it could influence the city's governance decisions, it gradually changed its taste.

  As the Urban Alchemists Association penetrated into the administrative circle of Raging Waves City, the new aristocratic forces also penetrated into the Alchemists Association and became a community of interests.

  Now the three members of the city council of Raging Waves are members of the City Alchemist Association, and so is Mrs. Mihir.

Viscount Iscoran is also aware of the influence of the Urban Alchemists Association in Raging Waves City, and he persuaded Luke: "Although this passive situation was reversed by you, I also agree to use the accident of the Changxiang-class hydrogen airship to do something , but we must not provoke the City Alchemists Guild.

  In Raging Waves City, those who are rejected by the City Alchemist Association will definitely not be able to survive here. "

  Member Ible also said: "Yes... Many of the technologies used in my factory are patented by the Urban Alchemists Association. Once they don't allow me to use these technologies, I will go bankrupt in an instant!"

   "You don't need to be nervous, it's just a lawsuit." Luke said relaxedly: "And we still sued the Urban Alchemists Association in the court of Raging Waves City. The association will not get any punishment or loss. We have also expressed our attitude.

  The Urban Alchemists Association is not a strict organization. Many research institutes in it rely on selling patents for a living. Patent licensing has been stopped, and some of their research also has no money to maintain.

  This time our focus is on those research institutions involved in hydrogen airships. Now I have every reason to suspect...the so-called hydrogen airship R&D investment is a complete financial fraud. They raised so much money to come up with this thing? "

  Luke points to the sky.

   At this time, the high-altitude fireball has disappeared, and the hydrogen burns very quickly, leaving a white cloud there.

After hearing Luke's words, Councilor Ible immediately said angrily: "Yes! This is definitely a financial fraud! When they asked me to invest, they told me frankly that hydrogen airships are a means of transport across the ages. Whoever invests money in this project will win the future.

   Look now, it's a disaster!

   Someone must be responsible, someone must pay back my hard-earned money! "

  Ible is so excited, it can be seen that he has invested a lot of money in the hydrogen airship project. Originally, he thought that his money would be wasted because of the accident of the Changxiang-class airship. Now that Inspector Meteor has given him such a conviction, maybe he can recover part of his money.

  Based on his relationship with Inspector Meteor, it is not impossible to get them all back.

  Viscount Iskran tasted the killer move Luke used this time.

  Looking around, those who were beating their chests didn't realize that Inspector Meteor, who was supposed to be on the airship, unexpectedly appeared here. It is estimated that they have long forgotten the duel in their minds, and their hearts are completely filled with the fire of the Changxiang-class hydrogen airship.

  Hydrogen airship is a research and development project promoted by Raging City Urban Alchemist Association these years. If hydrogen airships can replace steam airships, Rough City will monopolize the manufacture, supplies and maintenance of hydrogen airships. Raging Waves City will also change from an ocean city to an "air city" sitting on an airship.

  Because of the huge money potential of hydrogen airships, some powerful people in Raging Wave City want to share a piece of the pie. The Urban Alchemist Association of Raging Waves City is also half-pushing and half-doing, aiming at the research and development and subsequent construction of hydrogen airships, extensive financing in Raging Waves City.

   Then someone discovered that this kind of financing not only raised all the funds needed for the development of hydrogen airships, but also made a lot of money. Wanting to stop financing, some people rely on various relationships to invest money in this project.

  So the hydrogen airship research and development project let go of collecting money. Anyway, after the hydrogen airship is promoted, it is trivial to pay back the money.

   These days, Raging City has been promoting hydrogen airships in various ways. It is that the hydrogen airship technology is mature and can be used for an in-air transformation and realization.

   As a result... No one expected that the Changxiang-class hydrogen airship caught fire, and it burned vigorously under the gaze of almost all residents of Raging Waves City. The bubble developed by the hydrogen airship, which had inflated countless times, exploded at this moment.

  Who will bear the blame?

   Facing the Urban Alchemists Association, probably everyone can only think that "investment is risky".

  But if this incident is classified as a financial fraud, it has another meaning.

  Detective Meteorite sued the City Alchemists Association for murder... Although the crime is serious, it is irrelevant. The city court will acquit the City Alchemists Association because of insufficient evidence.

  But it set a precedent for prosecuting the Urban Alchemists Guild for felony crimes.

   Then when investigating the hydrogen airship research and development project, they disclosed rumors that the project was involved in financial fraud... There is no need to fabricate evidence, the accounts of this project cannot withstand investigation at all.

   At that time, the lawsuit against the City Alchemists Association for fraud could flood the city court!

Viscount Iskran, who had figured out the whole thing, couldn't help admiring: "Inspector, your duel was so beautiful. It seems... the City Alchemists Association will provide a hydrogen airship as a duel arena, and it will An accident under the watchful eyes of so many people is within your expectation."

  Luke said: "I proposed to use the airship as a duel field, and the Urban Alchemists Association will definitely not let go of this opportunity to promote the hydrogen airship. As for this accident...it was a real accident!"

  Viscount Iskran understood, and replied with a smile: "Yes, it was an accident... an accident that no one wants to see."

  Luke and Iskran's secretive dialogue also allowed Mrs. Mihir to figure out what was behind the incident.

  If the Urban Alchemists Association really falls into the quagmire of financial fraud, it will be a heavy and lasting blow to the government and businessmen who invested in the hydrogen airship project, as well as the Urban Alchemists Association.

  The tacit understanding between them and the established rules will be seriously damaged, and the new noble forces will fight each other. The credibility and influence of the Urban Alchemists Association have shrunk severely, and the City Administration Office and the Council are no longer able to unite to deal with this new type of force.

   "Brilliant, very good, it was a very good duel.

  We will launch a decisive counterattack! "

  Several veterans of the Reform Society decided to contribute to the incident of the Changxiang-class hydrogen airship, and launched a major counterattack against the old system of Raging Waves City.

   Viscount Iscoran and Mrs. Mihir, who understood what to do, knew what to do, and they didn't need too much guidance. The two of them left quickly.

  Luke took Senator Ible to his car alone, and taught him the best strategy.

  Member Ible has invested a lot of money in the hydrogen airship project, and almost all merchants in Raging Waves City have invested in this project. This is a very powerful force, and Luke asked Senator Ible to count all these people.

   "Don't tell them for the time being, we will pursue the defrauded money and fines from the Urban Alchemists Association. You just need to keep in touch with these merchants and be able to gather people together when I need it."

Councilor Ible heard that he not only had the hope of getting his money back, but also got compensation, he was a little happy but also a little disbelieving: "Detective... If the City Alchemist Association doesn't give the money, what should we do? We can't offend the alchemist association!"

"Member, when this matter is fermented and explodes, the City Alchemists Association will no longer be the current Alchemists Association. The Alchemists Association should return to its original responsibilities. We are its benefactors, so it should serve We serve.

  Of course...as long as the Alchemist Guild is willing to compromise with us, the money can be temporarily waived, and it can even be lent to it to tide it over. "

   "Is it possible for the Urban Alchemists Association to compromise with us?" Councilor Ible, who has been manipulated by the Urban Alchemists Association, still has some doubts.

Luke could see that Councilor Ible hadn't been able to see what the City Alchemists Association would face. He said: "If you don't compromise, then give money. Don't worry...they have no choice. No matter how overbearing the City Alchemists Association is, You can't owe money and don't pay it back.”

   "Okay, I believe you. I will contact those businessmen who have invested in hydrogen airships... Everyone I know has invested money."

   "Also, let your newspaper office be ready to cooperate with our actions at any time. If I want headlines, the headlines must be mine."

   "That's no problem..." Senator Ible assured: "My newspaper headlines are always ready for you, Inspector. As long as you order, no matter how big things happen that day, it won't take away your position."

   "Very good, keep it secret!"

  Member Ible left happily.

Karina, who got into the car and walked beside Luke, was finally able to speak to him: "Inspector, I just saw the airship explode, and I feel like my heart is broken. Thank God, you are safe...you are not injured, are you? "

  Facing Karina who cared about himself, Luke replied: "I'm fine, I left when the airship exploded, but Edgar was unlucky.

  Let's go back, Inspector, I'm going to take you to a big event.

drive! "

  The detective team returned to the Cape Secret Bureau.

  Luke had just sat in his office when Mrs. Tasia sent someone to report.

  Four Adonis-class steam warships have been captured.

  Facing the Naga's sudden attack, the crew on the steam battleship did not make a decent defense. After Mrs. Tasia took the armed ship to the board, they all surrendered.

  Four steam warships fell into Luke's hands almost undamaged.

   Luke replied to Mrs. Tarcia, commending her for this victory. And officially assigned these four steam warships to the Anti-Smuggling Fleet of the Cape Secret Affairs Bureau, and handed them over to Mrs. Tasia to command.

   Also release all the Saxon Engineering crew and have them send a message to their boss.

  Luke expresses deep condolences for Edgar's death: he was an excellent fighter, and even in the face of the fire on the airship, he still did his best to win the duel.

  However, he was burned to death.

  The four Adonis-class steam warships were the prize of the duel given by Edgar. Since he lost, these four warships belonged to the Cape District Secret Information Bureau.

   As for whether Edgar has the right to use the battleship belonging to the Saxon project as a duel prize, Luke said that it doesn't matter, anyway, it is just an excuse to hack four steam battleships.

  The Saxon project wanted to ask for it, but it was a protracted lip service, and it was worth playing with it.

   After finishing the Cape Harbor matter, Luke immediately put himself into the offensive plan.

   First, in the capacity of the Cape District Secret Affairs Bureau, he sued the Urban Alchemists Association in the city court of Raging Waves for allegedly murdering the detective of the Imperial Secret Affairs Bureau. The Changxiang-class hydrogen airship is a duel field provided by the Urban Alchemists Association, and the hydrogen inside is filled by the Urban Alchemists Association.

  The supposedly safe hydrogen gas will explode. Obviously this is a premeditated murder.

   In order to gain momentum in this lawsuit, Luke deliberately spent a lot of money to hire a team of lawyers known as "Pizza Hut of Raging Waves City" to have a dignified court duel with the City Alchemists Association.

   It is not necessary for Pizza Hut to win consecutive victories, but to build momentum. With the aftermath of the explosion of the Changxiang-class hydrogen airship and the rhythm of the newspaper, the incident continued to be stirred up. Increase its exposure and attention, and continue to sprinkle salt on the wounds of those investors.

  Let them open their eyes in the morning and go to bed at night, surrounded by information about the failure of the hydrogen airship project, and full of burned money.

   All his hard-earned money.

  After they start to fall into the information cocoon, they can control their consciousness and behavior through information. When the bombs that had been planted were detonated at the last moment, they, who were no longer afraid of the City Alchemists Association, would frantically attack the City Alchemists Association in order to get their money back.

   At that time, the sky in Raging Waves City was truly clear.

  In order to fight the lawsuit, Luke sent all the people who could be sent by the Cape District Bureau of Secrets to recover the remains of the Changxiang-class hydrogen airship and look for evidence of the murder of the Urban Alchemists Association. At the same time, they also used the expertise of the spies to forge some evidence... Play slowly!
