Chapter 347 The Name of Nobel (81/104)

Seeing that it had successfully attracted everyone's attention, Eugen cleared his throat and continued: "Eugen, everyone, I know that the purpose of establishing the Po River defense line is to resist a terrible disease, which is the so-called Black Death!"

"This disease is extremely contagious, omnipresent, and has a very high mortality rate. Once a person gets infected with this disease, he is destined to die in pain in a few days."

These days, the word Black Death has spread throughout the Holy Roman Empire, and people have some knowledge of it, so no one is shocked when he hears Eugen's words.

"Gentlemen and ladies of Heidelberg, I know you are all afraid of the Black Death, and I am also afraid of letting this disease spread to the mainland. So I established a Po River defense line to block the invasion of the Black Death, but what I want to tell you is that although we have done our best, the situation of the Po River defense line is still not optimistic. The Black Death's claws may pass through the defense line at any time and extend inland. By that time, I simply don't know how to stop it."

In order to avoid causing greater chaos, Eugen did not tell the news that the Pohe defense line had been broken. Anyway, this is not a major problem at the moment.

At this moment, Eugen stood above the lion's head, and the fire below illuminated the lion and his face. All the ordinary people below were watching him, and the scene looked like the legendary saints preaching.

The saint holds the seed called hope in his hand, and the foolish crowd looks at him, longing to be shined by the great glory.

"And now, what I want to tell you is that we don't have to worry about the Black Death." Eugen raised his voice to the highest point and almost shouted: "Just a while ago, Dr. Nobel had developed a drug to resist the Black Death. From now on, we can finally face this terrible disease and gradually disperse it until we drive it out of our country!"

This sentence is like a bright light dispelling the darkness, conveying hope to the hearts of everyone present.

At this moment, Eugen was really shining like a saint in their eyes. They would always remember this scene. More importantly, they also remembered the name Eugen mentioned, Doctor Nobel!

Among all, only the doctors participating in the medical competition felt a little disappointed. They originally wanted to win the crown by themselves, but now, this honor has been attributed to Dr. Nobel.

The Nobel Doctor, who was always looked down upon by them, ridiculed by them, and despised by them, was like a huge slap slapped the doctors' side faces, making their cheeks hurt.

The crowd was boiling, and they shouted Dr. Nobel's name, mixed with various words of praise. With Eugen's confirmation, all the negative news about Dr. Nobel finally disappeared. People no longer had any hostility towards Dr. Nobel, only Qingpei and respect were left.

Eugen stood on a high place, smiling and watching the scene. Seeing the crowds, he couldn't help feeling a little dazed.

In his era, Nobel, as a scientist, was also well-known to the world and became a benchmark, inspiring all scientists in the world to study on the academic path. However, Mr. Nobel had such a status because of his invention of explosives.

But now, Mr. Nobel has invented the potion to cure diseases and save lives, and his deeds are equally tragic, which is sad.

Eugen had already decided to use the prizes Nobel Prize won by Dr. Nobel and his own abilities to create a Nobel Prize named after Dr. Nobel and make it a force to inspire all scientists.

This time, he wanted to make the name Nobel also known to the world and remembered by history.

After a while of noise in the square, the people finally became quiet. No one heard Eugen's words directly on the surrounding streets also learned the exact news from the words of the people in front of them.

After the scene was settled, Eugen spoke again, "Eugen, tomorrow, I will hold a award ceremony to award the highest award in the medical competition to Mr. Nobel. It is already late at night, so you can go back and rest first, and don't disturb Dr. Nobel's rest."

As he said that, Eugen waved to the people around him for the last time, then climbed down from the lion sculpture and walked towards the Blood Lion Castle surrounded by soldiers.

He had said something like that, and the residents of Heidelberg should be able to calm down. Some of the words cannot be explained clearly on such occasions, and they will still have to wait until the official award ceremony tomorrow before they can be expressed.

The news has been confirmed, and the doubts in the hearts of the citizens were dispelled, so they all dispersed and walked towards their homes. There were so many things that happened on this day, and everyone was very tired and wanted to climb onto their beds and sleep early.

In the crowd, only Dr. Nobel fell asleep near his workbench early. Although it was noisy outside, it did not affect him.

Anti-disease agents played a role in his body. Dr. Nobel's breathing gradually stabilized and the fever subsided. However, ugly black spots began to quietly appear on his body.

That night passed quietly. Early the next morning, news was posted on the bulletin board in the city that the award ceremony of the Medical Arts Competition will be held in the auditorium of Heidelberg University, where only people with relatively noble status can enter it.

However, on this day, Heidelberg University also allows ordinary citizens to enter the school. They can gather outside the auditorium. The priests under Modesar will transfer the situation of the award ceremony to the outside world so that everyone can know.

This plan was formulated by Principal Kopeki. He felt that this has taken into account the civilians to the greatest extent. After all, the identities of civilians are still somewhat different from them and cannot be generalized.

However, after Eugen learned of this plan, he directly rejected it. He wanted to make this award ceremony suitable for everyone, so it must be held in an open-air location.

Shortly after the sun came out, citizens began to gather towards Heidelberg University. After a night, the news had almost spread throughout Heidelberg City. More than 30,000 residents and more than 20,000 doctors in the city, at least four-fifths of them would participate.

It is estimated that the final number of people may exceed 40,000, which is simply terrifying. They all gather and can even fill the open air space of Heidelberg University.

Finally, after discussion, it was found that only so many people could be left on the vast open ground in front of Heidelberg University. Heidelberg University and Blood Lion Castle formed an angle, and the two buildings shared a wide open land in front. This was reserved by Marquis Falz, in order to mobilize the army in an emergency, it is now just right to use it.
