Struggle in the Steam Age

After receiving the letter, Lawrence originally planned to stay in the Gutenberg Cathedral for the next two days to read books and do something. But as if God didn't want him to be idle, just after he finished his meal at noon, a trainee priest he didn't know knocked on the door and said that someone was looking for him.

Who can come here to find me? Lawrence thought in confusion, after all, not many people know that they live here. But when he came to the door of the church, he realized that it was indeed an acquaintance looking for him.

The person who came was Dr. Liszt. He had thick dark circles under his eyes and his face was a little gray, as if he hadn't slept for a week. But after seeing Lawrence, his eyes shone with a frightening light, and at the same time he greeted him excitedly.

Successful, I found the microorganism that caused the infection. After Lawrence walked down the stairs of the church, Liszt immediately opened the folder under his arm and showed Lawrence. Look, this is our paper, and now the last flaw in the paper has been filled, you look at it now, if there is no problem, I will post this article in the Federal Medical Journal through my teacher tomorrow up.

Well, let's go to the cafe next to it first. Liszt Lawrence, who was looking tired in front of him, suggested, I'll take a look there, and you can take a rest.

Okay, Liszt nodded, In the past two days, I actually rested for no more than three hours a day, but thanks to your suggestion of alkaline dyes, I was able to find what we needed in such a short period of time.

Hearing Liszt's praise, Lawrence smiled a little embarrassedly. Then he and Liszt walked into a cafe called Wisdom Tree more than 20 meters away from the church.

The two ordered a cup of hot cocoa each, and then Lawrence took the documents and read them. This life as a medical student plus the memory of his whole life allowed him to understand this paper full of technical terms.

Compared with Lawrence's previous life, the thesis of this era is still lacking a lot, especially in the absence of a standard template, the thesis is purely personal. He felt that the writing of Liszt's paper seemed a bit difficult, at least in terms of layout and format, it was not as clear as those papers he read in his previous life.

So he went to the front desk and asked the waiter in the cafe to borrow a pen and ink, and then re-edited the paper according to the format of the paper he remembered in his previous life.

After three hours, Lawrence finally sorted out a paper of more than 4,000 words. This time it looked much clearer than what Liszt took out before, and when he put down his pen and rubbed his sore wrist, he found that Liszt was sleeping soundly across the table.

Get up, get up. Lawrence shook Liszt, and soon Liszt got up sleepily rubbing his eyes.

I fell asleep? I'm sorry, I'm still a little too tired these two days. After speaking, he took Lawrence's revised document and looked at it, while Lawrence drank the third glass that was just served hot coco.

Soon, there was only the sound of pages turning in the room. Just when Lawrence drank a whole glass of cocoa, Liszt in front of him slammed the table and stood up after reading the last page of the thesis.

This is simply amazing. After finishing speaking, Liszt suddenly felt the surroundings quiet down. Looking around, he found that several people raised their heads and stared at him.

Sorry, sorry. Liszt awkwardly raised his right hand and waved to those who were disturbed by him to express his apology, then sat down quietly and said to Lawrence in a low voice, I was too excited just now, But I swear it's the best paper I've ever seen. I've never seen a paper that says things so clearly in such a short text before.

Okay, don't praise me, or my face will be as red as a tomato. Lawrence waved his hands and said with a smile. Tell me about what you just found out that needs to be modified?

No, I think it's perfect on the whole, there will be some minor grammatical errors at most. As he spoke, he solemnly put away the thesis that Lawrence had just written. It's enough to retype it with a typewriter when I go back. I have a hunch that this paper will detonate the entire medical profession.

I hope so. Lawrence was not as excited as he was, but his face became serious. Because he knows that even if the new things are correct, many people in the old era will always obstruct them out of habit or interests. Not to mention that this is a world with extraordinary power in the gods. This method of reducing death rates through disinfection will inevitably offend some gods.

For example, Lawrence can be sure that this article will offend the goddess of poison and disease 100% after it is published. Therefore, out of safety considerations, Lawrence feels that facing the possible hatred and loathing of a certain god, it is better for him to discuss it with Priest Carter. .

After telling you about his worries for a while, Liszt patted himself on the forehead. You are right. I have ignored this kind of thing. Fortunately, you reminded me.

Realizing this, the two dropped a silver dollar on the coffee table for tea money plus a tip, and headed straight for St. Gutenberg's Cathedral with their papers.

You said that one of your papers might make you be targeted by the goddess of poison and disease? In Priest Carter's office, he looked at Lawrence and the others with some incomprehension. All kinds of new medicines are invented every year, and there are at least hundreds of treatments. But the gods don't stare at everyone who does these things, so you don't need to be overly nervous.

The implication of Priest Carter's words is clear, which is to gently warn Lawrence that his article may not be as important as he thought. However, out of the religious habit of respecting knowledge, he still took the paper that Lawrence had just written and read it.

Is this—is this true? Priest Carter, who had read the entire paper 15 minutes later, looked at Lawrence in shock. Are all your data real?

Yes. Lawrence nodded. The data here are all calculated by Dr. Liszt in many hospitals in Eagle Fort. During the period before, he almost traveled all over the city to search through the dusty files in the file rooms of various hospitals. .”

It seems that I have to take back what I just said. Priest Carter put down the document in his hand and watched Lawrence and the others arrive. It is very likely that you will become the key targets of the Church of Toxins and Diseases.

As he spoke, he pulled a rope beside him, and soon a trainee priest opened the door and walked in. Priest Carter gave him a few instructions in a low voice, and he walked out with the paper.

I am now submitting your paper to the church knowledge analysis team, and they will judge the value of this paper. Priest Carter explained. Of course, you don't have to be afraid because of this. If the content of this article is true, we will never stand idly by. Besides, I believe that the Church of the God of Suffering will definitely do its best to protect you.

So the three of them chatted and waited in the office, but they waited for half an hour before there was a knock on the office door. Afterwards, a priest who was also wearing a blue robe came over, and Lawrence was surprised to find that there was a complex golden embroidery pattern on his shoulder, which meant that the priest who entered the office now was a senior clergyman of the Church of Knowledge.

Sure enough, the greeting from Priest Carter later confirmed this. Master Brown, why are you here?
