I found Mark and had a chat with him. As expected, a good brother is a good brother and he agreed to my request.
but......
The Einzberns haven’t produced a new artificial human yet!
Sorry, it will be close to two months from now to April. What should we do to fill the gap? Suspend the experiment!?
No, no, testing always requires consistency.
I have to think of other options...
...
The next day, Selim sat at his desk, clicking his fingers irritably.
His breathing was a little heavy and he seemed to be in a very bad mood.
Last night he almost lost his temper with Frederica von Einzbern, the head of the Einzbern family, but Frederica said she was helpless.
The production of artificial humans does take time, and it is impossible to produce high-quality artificial humans that meet the requirements of magic experiments in a short period of time.
In the end, Selim calmed down his temper and apologized to Frederica.
but......
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" He yelled suddenly and slammed his desk hard.
"How can I do!"
"What should I do to continue the experiment!?"
"Artificial man, artificial man, how can I do experiments without artificial man..." Suddenly, Selim thought of something.
He looked at his hand hammering on the table.
He turned around and glanced at the artificial human arm that had been modified before but was not used. It was still active.
His pupils shrank.
After being stunned for a long time, he swallowed.
The prototype of the artificial human...isn't it just a human?
Since now, artificial humans cannot be used.
So I...why don't I use people?
A glimmer of light flashed in his eyes.
That's right... Since I can't use artificial humans during this period, why don't I just use humans?
Anyway, in this era of great changes, the most indispensable thing is human life.
But...can we really use people?
He held his head, his whole body shaking violently.
Although the association only manages magicians and not ordinary people, it does strictly prohibit the use of human research. Even if you finally produce research results, you cannot escape the seal designation.
But...but...
This is my lifelong wish. As long as I'm not discovered, wouldn't it be fine?
...I have to block the message, I can't let the experiment be interrupted.
No matter what, I can't let my experiments stop.
No matter what, I will continue.
I want to complete my experiment.
I want to complete my experiment.
I want to finish my experiment!
I want to finish my experiment...
Must be completed.
He stopped shaking and let go of his head, a fierce light flashed in his eyes.
He looked around his office, found a leather box, put some money in it, and walked out without saying hello to his servant.
He already has an idea.
His target is a leather factory located in the suburbs.
"What I need cannot be an adult. Adults will be discovered by the association too easily, and the servants will also notice. I...have to find a child."
"And the easiest place to find children at this time is in factories."
His eyes were flashing with blood, crazy and rational.
"I'm going to 'hire' a kid as my employee."
"that's it!"
Selim came to the leather factory and found the owner of the leather factory, expressing his intention to come and that he needed an "employee".
The chubby leather factory owner immediately complained to Selim, saying that he was short of people and how could he give up his labor force again?
Selim then threw all the pounds in the box in front of the tannery owner.
"Take these, go to the Bank of England and exchange them for gold. You can hire as many people as you want." Selim looked at him and said, "But you can't say that the money comes from me, nor can you reveal my existence."
"do you understand?"
The owner of the tannery factory was obviously a man who put profits first and was greedy for money, so he nodded immediately.
He "reluctantly" selected one of the child workers in his factory who looked younger.
"This guy's name is Nora Broll. He will be your employee from today on. You can take him away." The owner of the leather factory said happily.
Nora Brohl was handsome, but short and a little thin. She was obviously not a good person. He was timid and looked at the tall and indifferent Selim Zolgen with fear and fear on his face.
Seeing the tannery owner's little "plot", Selim didn't say much.
Nora Broll left the tannery with uneasiness. Selim stopped when the tannery was no longer visible.
"First... sir?" Nourla's body was trembling slightly because of fear. She raised her head slightly, but she didn't dare to look at Selim.
Selim knelt down and looked at Nora's face, seemingly struggling.
"Have I... seen you somewhere before, child?" He tried his best to put on a smile and put a hand on Noella's shoulder.
"I, I...I don't know." Nora involuntarily stepped back a little, but Selim's hand kept pressing on his shoulder, preventing him from retreating.
"How old are you?" Selim asked again.
"I am ten years old this year..." Selim's hand made Nourla panic, and he answered Selim's question tremblingly.
"You don't have to be so afraid, you will work for me in the future, kid." Selim smiled and touched Noerla's head, took out the candy bar he usually used to supplement sugar from his pocket, and handed it to Noerla.
.
Nora did not dare to disobey and took the candy bar that Selim handed over.
Then under Selim's encouraging eyes, he opened the package and stuffed the candy into his mouth.
sweet.
This was Nora's last reaction.
The next second, he fainted.
Selim retracted his hand, looked at Noerla lying on the ground, and sighed.
"I passed out after a simple mental shock... Isn't the strength enough?" His eyes returned to scrutiny.
"...Forget it, now is not the time to worry about this, let's take him back first." He picked up Noella, put it into his suitcase, and buttoned it up after a lot of effort.
Button said, "I hope you can help me with my experiment."
After standing up and slapping his face twice, Selim let out a deep breath, straightened his clothes, and walked back to his sub-manor.
"I hope Mark can hurry up. The experiment... must not be interrupted!" He said firmly.
The candy stained with a little saliva fell on the roadside, which seemed to be telling something.
Then he was crushed to pieces by Selim and stepped over.
