I weave my destiny in parallel time and space
Chapter 332 Nico
Galante is over a hundred years old this year, and he understands human nature better than many people.
In the past, he was even almost eaten because of his immortality. Although he escaped, his wife and children also died in the escape.
After experiencing all this, he also understood the truth that ordinary people are not guilty of carrying a jade.
He knew exactly how tempting the Philosopher's Stone, which could turn stones into gold and transform matter, would be for humans, and also knew what potential the alchemy he controlled had.
Therefore, Galante has been hiding himself since arriving in Germany. He only moved part of his company here and built a factory here.
As Gayward said, workers' welfare in Britannia is much higher than that in other countries.
There is a lot of capital in Britannia that will choose to build factories in places such as West France, Germany.
Of course, there are many things in Britannia that these capitals cannot give up, such as more advanced and complete transportation lines, the market brought by the huge population, and the market trust brought by years of trade. These are all things Britannia has to offer. The basis for retaining capital.
But even so, he was very cautious. Even though alchemy could bring him many patented technologies, he still chose to squeeze out toothpaste. While maintaining his company's certain technologically advanced advantages, it would not surpass the rest. There are too many types of companies.
It has to be said that his age has indeed not been in vain.
He also used the contents of the Jade Record that he understood and used alchemy to find the descendants of his friend.
Interestingly, he is now a nobleman, a member of the royal family of the German Empire.
He seemed to have eaten some of his friend's big melons, and Chara also ate them.
However, this royal member does not seem to be valued among the Prussian royal family in Germany.
Simon is kind to Galant, and Galante has been grateful and guilty to Simon for decades.
Therefore, he chose to repay this kindness to his descendants.
He spent ten years in Prussian Germany, placing the royal member on the throne as Wilhelm II.
After experiencing what happened with Catherine and Beethoven, Xia Ya understood one thing.
Even though the history of this world has been changed beyond recognition due to many variables and the fate woven by Char.
But there is still an underground force that affects the "determination". Therefore, Catherine appeared, Beethoven also existed, and some historical events that existed in Char's world will also occur in this time and space. There are some similar ones.
Gayward's prophecy has unprecedented accuracy.
Therefore, the war that occurred in Char's world and swept the entire world may also occur.
And there are actually signs of this war now.
Xia Ya doesn't know whether Dechuan Buddhism will still appear in this country, and he will not arrange this fate.
However, Xia Ya feels that there may be a high possibility that this country will still be the core of this war.
As for Galante, whether he sits back and does nothing or chooses to be behind this country, Xia Ya thinks it may be interesting to watch.
An alchemist who can refine the Philosopher's Stone is enough to change the destiny of a country.
Time passes year after year.
As the industrialization of countries around the world gradually matures, European countries are competing for overseas markets and resources, resulting in intensified economic competition between countries.
In addition, military confrontations between countries have gradually intensified. Many countries are expanding their armaments in response to possible conflicts.
Various military alliances have also been initially formed.
Against this background, the time of this world has also arrived in 1872, and has initially entered the end of the nineteenth century.
Charia finally made up her mind and decided to use alchemy to bring a new direction to the world.
. . . . .
"Nico!"
Under two huts in a city in western Croatia.
A slightly chubby woman wearing an apron was holding a spoon on her hips and shouting the name of the boy not far away.
The young man was very thin, but he ran very fast. He seemed not to hear at all, and ran excitedly into the forest with a bag in his arms.
"what happened?"
A tall, bearded man wearing black clerical robes walked over from the other end of the street holding a Bible.
"Nico ran away again." The woman said helplessly, "Dinner has just been cooked."
The man turned his head and looked in the direction Nico ran away, frowned slightly, and then sighed.
"Forget it, let him be."
The man was a Serbian, an Orthodox priest, and the boy's father. He represents the Serbs surrounded by foreigners and Celestial believers.
Therefore, his father's heart is full of responsibility, and he also hopes that the boys in the family can inherit his career, but Nico is obviously not good at it. He has been sick since he was a child, is afraid of the dark and ghosts, and is still trembling with fear from the ghosts he imagined.
Nico has three sisters and one eldest brother. The eldest brother is a powerful man and his father has always liked him. However, when Nico was 7 years old, his eldest brother was trampled to death by his father's Arabian horse. Nico witnessed it with his own eyes. All this.
Nico had a special kind of hallucination when he was a child. Pictures and images would often appear in front of his eyes inexplicably, accompanied by strong flashes of light. He also had extraordinary senses.
The sound of mosquitoes flapping their wings and the subtle smell in the house are all clearly captured by him. His fantasy and developed senses often make him feel great pain.
When he went swimming as a child, the left side of his body suffered a huge impact due to rising river water. However, the fantasy in his mind at this time showed a schematic diagram of the principle of water pressure, allowing him to quickly adjust his posture and save himself.
After witnessing the death of his brother, Nico's hallucinations became more and more terrifying. Nico was in pain but could not talk about it because at the time, this dangerous form of hallucination was not understood.
Later, his father began to deliberately train Nico, but his father soon discovered that something was wrong.
That is, Nico loves reading so much. His father is in charge of the local library, so Nico reads day and night.
Logically speaking, this was a good thing, but his father would get furious every time he caught Nico.
Because he really read day and night, which is not possible. He is already very sick. If he continues like this, he is afraid that he will not be able to become a priest and his body will collapse first.
When his father hid the candles, Nico stole the family's grease and made his own candles to read from.
For Nico, this is a kind of brain trip. He found that as long as he reads a book, those hallucinations will disappear, and his brain will follow the book to many places. He and various ancient, modern and foreign people on the journey also interact with each other. He felt comfortable having someone to talk to from the future.
At that time, he read a storybook called "Abafi", which told the story of a young noble knight resisting foreigners in a dilapidated Serbian castle. This book suddenly awakened Nico, and he began to By practicing turning this brain trip into a kind of thinking, he would learn to master the illusion and return to reality.
At first, he originally planned to melt slowly in the world of illusion like April Snow, but after practicing for a while, he found that he could control this illusion with willpower, which made him feel happier than ever before.
Nico's greatest influence was his uncle.
His uncle was an engineer who worked for an airship company, where he was responsible for the engines.
One day, he was struggling with a problem in engine technology at home. At that time, Nico happened to go to his house to play. He watched him sitting in front of an engine and thinking about the drawings. He obviously did not notice Nico's arrival.
Nico was also looking at the drawing, and his hallucination appeared again. The parts on the drawing were assembled in his mind and ran. He quickly found the problem and told his uncle.
His uncle didn't care at first, but after the experiment it really worked, so he excitedly picked up Nico and spun him around.
Later, his uncle brought him a lot of model toys such as airships and cars, and even brought him many engineering and mathematics books that were not in his father's library.
He really loved those books so much that he even forgot to eat and sleep because of them.
When he was 12 years old, Nico told his father that he wanted to be an engineer because he discovered that he could simulate all engineering models, drawings, and experiments in his mind. He wanted to use this method to repair broken machines. .
His father firmly opposed it. He wanted Nico to inherit his career as a priest and save mankind instead of repairing machines.
After hearing this, Nico felt his head heat up, hallucinations appeared again, and then he fell ill.
Little Nico struggled in bed for nine months and was dying. Even the doctors gave up and the coffin carpenters came.
But at this time, Nico said to his father, if you can let me study engineering, maybe I will be fine.
Although this goes against his duty, my father doesn't want to lose another son, so I solemnly promise that I will let you study at the best technical college in the world.
Then, Nico drank a bitter soup made from fried beans that day, and then, just like Lazarus who was resurrected by Jesus, he immediately came to life.
Nico walked up the mountain path and soon reached the top of the mountain.
There is a tree house here, but it is not on the crown of the tree, but on the trunk of the tree. The height is not high, and there is a staircase connecting it.
This was the house that his uncle used to measure the wind direction. After his uncle died, he inherited it.
But at this moment, the wide open door of the house made Nico frown slightly.
He quickly ran into the house. I don't know when there were a lot of men in black here. They were strong and even had firecrackers on their waists. They rummaged through the house in a mess, with various drawings and tools scattered all over the floor. .
Even what looked like an aircraft placed in the middle was destroyed.
Nico immediately became anxious when he saw the destroyed aircraft. He didn't care whether it was dangerous or not, but said angrily.
"Who are you? Don't you know this is a private house?"
