LOL: Summoner of Goddess Jana

Chapter 11 Victor's Disappointment
These scientists were stung by this article, and even scolded without restraint.

I completely ignored that just a few minutes ago, I was still praising this article for its unique insights and accurate analysis.

"You guys." Victor was speechless.

But he quickly figured out the reason behind this huge contrast:
A few minutes ago, these people were all scientists and spokesmen for advanced productivity.

And now, their identities are just rich people in Piltover——

In this chaotic world dominated by magical power, only the wealthy people in Piltover could have the opportunity to receive a systematic and sound scientific education in a safe environment, and to make a name for themselves in Piltover's academic circles.

Therefore, most of Victor's scientist colleagues were born in Piltover's wealthy families.

Even if they were not born rich, after becoming scientists of this level, they have established inseparable interests with the major families of Piltover as early as in the process of transforming scientific research results into commodity production.

Of course, they will not have any good opinions on this pungent article.

Especially the old scientist who reacted the most and slapped the table angrily just now
This guy simply came from a side branch of the Midarda family.

The Myrdal family's headquarter is in Noxus.They are both wealthy merchants in Piltover and military leaders in Noxus.

That's why the caravans of the Myrdalda family, until today, followed the Noxus Empire's invading legion to conquer, plunder, burn and kill, doing the dirty business of colonial plunder and slave trade.

The bloody colonial history written by Li Wei in the article is like slapping them in the face by name after 300 years.

And what about other families?Is the business that these old money are doing now really clean?

"Professor Jess!"

At this time, I saw the scientist from the Midarda family stand up quite dissatisfied:
"I think we can vote now to decide whether to recruit Lina into the research group."

"Huh?" Jess was slightly taken aback.

He was still asking naively: "But everyone hasn't reviewed Lina's thesis design yet."

"Don't read it!" The professor frowned coldly: "She will copy the article that distorts the facts in her notebook, obviously there is something wrong with her thinking. She is probably a person who hates the Piltover Council extremists!"

"Recruiting this kind of guy with ulterior motives into the research team and letting her get in touch with the most cutting-edge Hex technology research in our Piltover, isn't this leading the wolf into the house?"

"anyway."

"This girl didn't even write her last name, so she's still from Zaun, right?"

As soon as he said these words, the atmosphere at the scene became a little delicate.

Because everyone knows that there was a Zaunite here.

Everyone secretly went to see Victor.

And Victor's face was gloomy and uncertain for a while, and finally changed his usual low-key, and raised his head tit for tat:

"Professor Midarda, I would like to ask you something:"

"There is a problem with thinking. You translate and translate, what does it mean to have a problem with thinking!"

"Aren't we scientists? Scientists don't even read scientific papers, but just use a historical article to judge a student's thinking, and then decide whether the student will stay or not based on the so-called wrong thinking and geographical origin?"

"Then what kind of scientists are we—"

"You might as well be an immigration inspector on the Canal Bridge!"

"You?!" The professor Midarda was so angry that his beard shook.

"Victor, calm down, calm down." Jess hurriedly grabbed his friend.

It was also the first time he saw Victor being so irrational and angry.

"Jess?" Victor looked deeply at his close friend: "Do you also think that Lina has some ideological mistakes?"

Jess was momentarily at a loss for words.

Then he replied: "Student Lina just copied an article, how can it be regarded as having a problem with thinking? Young people, they are always curious about many things. Didn't I study the banned Hex technology a few years ago?" Gemstone, accidentally blew up the whole building haha."

"That is to say." Victor was suddenly a little disappointed: "Do you think Lina is right, and the article is wrong?"

"This." Jess thought about it carefully, and finally answered frankly: "Yes, I think there are indeed some problems in that article."

"First, the historical materials he gave are not recorded in any historical books, and many contents cannot be verified."

"Second, this article is indeed... a bit extreme."

"The author almost describes the greatest and most prominent business families in the history of Piltover as bloody executioners, shameless robbers, and cruel slave traders."

"It's as if as long as there are entrepreneurs in our Piltover, none of them are clean."

"But is that really the case?"

Jess seriously debated with Victor:
"In fact, many of the business owners and businessmen I know are gentle and elegant gentlemen, hard-working strivers, and good people who are enthusiastic about charity."

"Don't say anything else, just say that our Tallis family—"

"My great-grandfather was just an ordinary blacksmith. He owned his own hammer factory in Piltover entirely through his own hard work and struggle."

"For generations of our family, we have only devoted ourselves to forging hammers with better quality. We have never stolen or robbed others. All the accumulation comes from our own hard work and sweat."

"Victor, look:"

"Could it be that our Talis family are also bad people who burned, killed and looted?"

The history of the Tallis family's prosperity is indeed clean.

In recent years, Tallis has been able to leap from an ordinary family business to today's Piltover giants, and it is all due to Jess's genius wisdom and great contribution as a scientist, and there is nothing worthy of criticism.

To say they are bad people is of course wrong.

Business owners are indeed not all bad people, many of them are very good people.So that article must be extreme.

"This" Victor couldn't help being silent.

He always felt that something was wrong, but he didn't know how to refute it for a while.

"Okay, okay!" At this time, the professor Midarda became impatient: "Since Professor Jess also knows that this article is problematic, let's vote with a show of hands!"

"Those who agree to give this classmate Lina an extra seat can raise their hands now."

There was an awkward silence.

Victor was the first to raise his hand: "I agree!"

Then, a female researcher named Skye, after sneaking a glance at him, raised her hand nervously under the strange eyes of everyone: "I, I also agree."

The third one who raised his hand after hesitation was Jess.

"Professor Jess?" Everyone was a little surprised.

Jess just thought about his explanation: "I do think that the point of view in that article is wrong, but since the research group is recruiting apprentices, it should mainly depend on the academic level of the students, right?"

"Her standard is indeed not bad, and it can be regarded as meeting the requirements of our research group."

"So I still suggest that everyone take a look at Lina's thesis design before making a vote."

He set an example for everyone very frankly.

However, no one present went to see Lena's thesis.

No one raised their hands anymore.

There were 11 people present, and only Jess, Skye, and Victor raised their hands in favor.

8 to 3, the outcome has been divided.

"This..." Jess hesitated as if he wanted to say something.But in the face of such a firm and clear statement from his colleagues, he finally had no choice but to hesitate to speak, and acquiesced to this result.

"Professor Victor, I suggest you just throw away this notebook." That Professor Midarda casually threw the notebook back to Victor, and went to debug the experimental equipment without looking back.

Others are about the same.

No one cared about that article anymore, and no one cared about Lina, who had never met her before.

Victor looked at the backs of those colleagues who had cooperated well with him on weekdays but were firmly opposed to him today, without saying a word for a long time.

He seemed to finally see something.

Jess and Skye want to give him some more attention.

But Victor was holding Lena's notebook tightly, and walked without looking back.

"Victor, where are you going?"

"Back to the office, there are still some issues to study."

"Hey?" Jess looked complicated: "What research are you doing alone? The progress of our experiment can be returned."

Victor didn't answer.

The question he wants to think about may be more important than HexTech.
