Almighty Lord: I can modify hidden entries.

Chapter 76 The former master left a letter, and the mystery was solved (4000 chapters)

Looking at the surprised expressions of the three, Gooden explained with a light smile.

"These are only rough plans, and it will take some time to complete."

"You are now the head of the research institute. You know the direction of future research in advance, so you can prepare for it."

Distillation tower, water pump, generator, behind each of these three is a huge system.

For example, distillation towers are used to prepare various types of refined gases, such as gas or gasoline, for energy.

The water pump is to provide water circulation for the entire Qingyuan Town, and even upgrade it into various types of motors.

The generator is the core part of changing the entire Qingyuan Town, and each plan will contain a large number of sub-projects.

These projects will need someone to maintain in the future, although he now has the strength to quickly get these things out.

But it's impossible to let him take care of all the follow-up issues alone, right?

Therefore, these tedious things must be left to the people to do by themselves.

"The general goals of the research are here. In addition to the smelting plant's component shaping equipment, there are only two goals that you need to develop in the near future."

"The first to upgrade the existing steam engine to make it more powerful, and to design a lightweight version based on the original that is easy to transfer."

"Second, the development of the first-generation water pump needs to be completed as soon as possible, even if it is an experimental version, it will be used for mine pumping work."

"Understood, I'll start arranging it now." Buck also knew that the young master didn't get an iron ore mine from somewhere, but it has been stranded since ancient times due to water seepage.

As the consumption of iron in Qingyuan Town is increasing, the point purchased from Jinyuan City is almost exhausted.

And it is not a thing to buy all the time, so the development of iron ore should also be put on the agenda.

"Well, work hard, and strive to complete the industrial upgrading before next spring."

Gooden clapped his hands and encouraged everyone.

Then continue to demystify some plans for everyone.

It was not until evening that Gooden returned to the castle.

After eating a hot meal and taking a hot bath, this little day is not too relaxing.

Although entertainment in Qingyuan Town is extremely scarce, there are many interesting anecdotes from local books for 'foreigners' like Gooden.

For example, on the northernmost side of the desert land, there is a place called 'Land of Flames', where huge columns of fire erupt from the ground all year round, and there are a lot of flammable black grease around.

Doesn't Gooden look like oil?And according to the book, that place has been burning since the third demon war thousands of years ago.

It has not been burned for nearly a thousand years, and this reserve really makes Gooden's heart move.

It is a pity that I am at least [-] kilometers away from the land of flames. Such a long distance, it will be possible to use this thing after the popularization of trains in the future.

In addition to these, he is also very interested in the history of the development of this world. These days, he has been studying "The History of the Dawn Continent" all day long.

Coming out of the bathroom, Gooden quickly wiped off the water stains on his body, and then quickly wrapped a slightly thicker layer of cotton velvet pajamas.

The weather in Qingyuan Town is the one who changes his face if he changes his face. A few days ago, he wore a slightly longer nightgown and it was still a little stuffy.

But now that he doesn't wear this thing, the autumn wind at night can make him shiver.

Back in the study, Gooden randomly ordered an illumination technique on the ceiling, and the milky white light instantly filled the entire study.

Since obtaining the Lord of Elements, he no longer needs to use mental power to maintain this low-level magic, and can completely switch on and off at will.

Such lighting conditions are much better than the previous candles, at least half of the candles will not need to be wicked to restore the light.

Sitting back at the desk, Gooden pulled out the history of the Dawn Continent under the heavy waste of manuscripts and continued to read.

But before turning over two pages, a folded white paper fell out of the book.

"what is this?"

Looking at what seemed to be inside the folded white paper, Gooden picked it up and took a glance.

"Clap..."

With this rough sweep, Gudern's back instantly became cold, and the history of the continent in his hand fell to the ground.

'The future lord of Qingyuan, when you see this message, it means that my family and I have suffered misfortune. '

'My death must be a conspiracy of the Charlson family, even if I die naturally, please beware of him. '

'I have hidden compartments in the study, after the penultimate row of the third bookcase, tap the stone brick in the upper left corner, which contains all the evidence of Charlson's collusion with Astor. '

'Charlesson family secretly colluded with Astor, they have completely betrayed the empire! '

'I beg you, the lords of Qingyuan who have not met, be sure to hand over these evidences to the empire! '

'Charlesson, if you found this letter, I curse your family to perish in this coup! '

'Zeng, Lord of Qingyuan, Sehit Kertia, stay. '

From the scribbled more than [-] words, Gooden could see that the other party's time was pressing for a long time. Presumably, the former lord was in an extremely critical situation at that time.

The content of it shocked him. The Charlieson family murdered the last Qingyuan lord and wanted to kill him secretly?
Recalling the various behaviors of Charlieson before, Gooden couldn't help shivering. His predecessor actually stood firm in this environment for three years, which is too easy, right?

Then he looked back at the contents of the letter, got up quickly, and began to search for the dark space in the study according to the record on the note.

"The third bookcase...the penultimate row..."

Gooden looked at the cabinet row filled with books, and directly pulled out all the books with a magic hand.

Then he reached out and touched the brick wall behind, and sure enough, there was a slight difference between the upper left corner and other places.

Press gently, and a slight stone friction sound rang from the side.

"Zi-Zi-"

Following the source of the sound, Gooden quickly stepped forward to check.

The stone wall on the side opened a hole under the driving force of the agency. Looking at the light, there seemed to be a book and an iron round box inside?

For the sake of safety, Gooden did not reach out to take the items in the dark compartment, but used the hand of magic to take them out for him.

And also put on a magic shield in front of him, just in case.

After a careful inspection, it was determined that there was no problem, and he started to open the book and check the content.

The first half of the book is filled with records similar to a ledger, and the last few pages are scribbled with suspected place names.

After looking at it for a long time, Gooden didn't understand what this thing was, and then set his eyes on the iron round box.

This thing looked unremarkable and nothing special, but Gooden sensed a faint trace of magic power on its object.

With the entry for the Lord of Elements, he can distinguish those traces left by his magic, and those that originally came with the item.

And the trace of thunder magic power left on it is definitely not left by him.

After playing with it for a while, Gooden didn't find a place to open this thing.

"Could it be that this thing is a magic tool?"

In this world, he has only seen magic items at the auction house once.

If you want to count the staff and the magic cloak, it will be another matter.

Looking at the round box in his hand, Gooden was a little undecided for a while.

This thing can be put into the dark compartment, the explanation is also an important piece of evidence.

Now it seems that he is going to activate the use of thunder element magic, but he has never touched such items and has no idea how to operate it.

If you use the wrong to destroy it, it will be finished.

After thinking about it, Gooden directly deployed his spiritual power to search for the location of Old Joseph in the castle.

Then use the magic sound transmission channel.

"If you are in a hurry, come to the study quickly."

Old Joseph, who was arranging tomorrow's work, heard a sudden sound in his ear and got up quickly.

The young master also used magic voice transmission to call him to meet before, but he never used the word "urgent" before, I'm afraid he encountered some kind of problem.

He walked all the way to the study, pushed open the door and entered, and saw the young master sitting on the ground with books scattered around.

Closing the door, Gooden put a spell to block eavesdropping.

"Old Joseph, do you remember how the former Lord Qingyuan died?"

Coming up, Gooden did not hand over the note directly, but asked the cause of death of the former Lord Qingyuan.

"Baron Secht? I remember that when their family was heading to Jinyuan City, they encountered a thunderstorm and torrent. When the motorcade passed the stone bridge, it was unfortunately swept into the river by the flood, and the whole family drowned in the river."

"It took more than a month of help from the surrounding families to search for the body... What's the matter? Young master?"

Listening to such a 'reasonable' cause of death, Gooden nodded, and sent the note left by Sehit to Old Joseph with his magical hand.

"Come and see this."

With a little doubt, Joseph reached out and took the note to check. After a brief glance, his expression was the same as that of Gooden before.

The look of surprise on his face first turned into seriousness.

"What do you think about this?"

Gooden, who was sitting on the ground, asked.

With such shocking news, Old Joseph couldn't give a point of view for a while, and only said a little seriously after a while.

"If it is as stated in the letter, this matter is beyond our ability to deal with it. It must be reported to the Empire and the Empire will send someone to deal with it."

"Well, but who are we going to contact to report this news?"

"City Lord Jinyuan? Arbitration? Or go directly to the Governor's Palace in the North?"

"This……"

When asked this, old Joseph couldn't give an answer at once.

The other party had planned a killing of the baron lord four years ago. Isn't there a local official in the empire to investigate this matter?

There must be, but the final result revealed that it was an accident. If it hadn't been for this letter and what happened to the young master during this time, there must be an imperial official behind the other party.

If such an important information is handed over rashly, and it happens to be intercepted by the other party's people, the death of himself and others will not be far away.

Looking at the old Joseph who couldn't answer, Gooden also knew the difficult choice here, so he temporarily skipped this topic.

"Forget it, let's not talk about this, look at this, can you see anything?"

With that said, Gooden handed the book containing the evidence to Joseph old.

He couldn't understand this thing. Old Joseph should be fine, right?

As old Joseph kept flipping through the pages, he gave the answer in a short while.

"This seems to be an account book. Although there is no mention of what it is, from the perspective of the unit, it is nothing more than grain, iron, horses, etc."

"As for the following addresses, my guess is that it may be a storage location, or a transit station or something."

From a professional point of view, it really gave a very close answer.

Gooden looked a little thoughtful, and then handed the iron disc in his hand.

"Do you know this thing? I also found it in the dark compartment. I feel that there are faint elements left on it, and it feels like a magic prop,"

Seeing that the young master handed over the familiar items, Old Joseph thought a little in his eyes.

"I've seen this thing before. It's a magic tool that can record surrounding sounds. It's generally used in some important meetings or places where you can't attend in person but need to convey orders..."

Magic recorder?Gooden listened to the explanation and looked at the small metal round box in his hand with a little surprise in his heart.

Wei Wei looked up and was about to ask Old Joseph how to use this thing, but he opened his mouth in advance.

"I don't know how to use this thing, but I do know that after recording the sound, it seems that it can be reproduced as long as it provides magic power, and the others don't know."

"Okay." Gooden shook his head regretfully.

For such an important item, he should not try to use it rashly first, and he will still find a professional at that time.

Putting away the items, Gooden got up from the ground, and with a magical hand, picked up the books that fell on the ground and returned them to the bookcase.

"The posthumous letter left by Secht has solved a lot of my doubts, but I still haven't figured out one thing. What is the Charlieson family planning?"

"This unknown project was planned four years ago, or even further back."

"Destroying the Sehit family, raising the orc army, and coercing to replace the new lord with the second assassination, no matter which of these things are exposed, the Charlson family will fall into ruin."

"At such a great risk, what are they doing? Is it really the coup d'état as stated in the letter?"

Gooden said and sat back to his desk.

Everything needs to be explained before and after, but the various actions of the Charlison family are completely confusing, and they have no idea what they want to do.

"Master, I'm afraid we can't figure out these things."

Old Joseph shook his head and said, "Our problem now is to find a way to get this information into the hands of reliable imperial officials."

"That's right...but I don't know any reliable officials. Over the years...cough, right?"

Gooden was a little helpless, and then looked at Old Joseph and suddenly thought of something.

"By the way, old Joseph, why don't you take these things back to the capital? Go and ask the family."

"Isn't there some energy in the family, you should be able to believe it compared to outsiders and your own family?"

　It's a bit late today. I looked back at the previous plot. Two thousand single chapters are too laborious, and the plot style is too serious. I plan to make four thousand chapters in the future. in the evening.
