Chapter 58 The G?del family
As the capital of the Nordic Republic, Oslo is not comparable to Mirtri in terms of urban area and prosperity in the south of the peninsula.
Although the population of more than 1 million is not comparable to the large city with the tens of millions of people Moser lived in his previous life, due to the small number of high-rise elevator apartments, the size of the entire city is still huge enough.
Cities in the Nordic Republic all have a characteristic. Except for enterprise and administrative buildings in the central area of the city, residential buildings with more than 7 floors rarely appear in the city.
The entire capital city is located on a hill at the northern end of the Oslo Fjord, facing the sea and backing to the mountains.
With the warm currents of the Atlantic Ocean and Mount Hallmen Colon blocking the cold airflow from the north, the climate of this capital city is very suitable for human habitation.
The average temperature in winter is exactly 0 degrees, while in summer it is maintained at around 19 degrees.
The administrative center of the Nordic Republic, the original royal palace, is now the Ober Palace, which is now the residence of the president, and is located in the center of Oslo city.
This urban layout, which means "Gather Valley of God", is radiated outward from the center.
With the Ober Palace as the center and the innermost circle as the administrative region, various national government agencies are located around the original palace.
Wenlai District to the east of the administrative district is a high-end residential area where politicians and wealthy businessmen gather.
Because the original three Nordic countries peacefully merged into the current republic, Oslo, which avoided the war, retained the precious ancient building complex of the old era to the greatest extent.
The Wenlai District has been the residential area of the nobles since the Middle Ages.
Although the royal families of the Three Kingdoms retreated collectively at the beginning of the founding of the Republic and almost all their privileges were removed from the nobles, those once prominent noble families still possessed titles and huge mansions passed down from their ancestors.
As the times change, the nobles who once relied on collecting territorial taxes to make a living had to find another way out.
Many nobles could not afford the luxury houses located in the center of the city and had to bear the pain of selling their ancestral homes.
However, there are also many nobles with strong capital and visionary transformation in time. They are still active in the political and business circles of the Nordic Republic, and the Godel clan is one of the most representative members.
The current head of the family, Pompeii Gödel, is a member of the House of Lords of the National Parliament. He inherited the dukes and duke residences left by his ancestors.
Although this title is only a reputational role, since the Godel family has always been active in the forefront of politics, the influence of this family has not declined significantly with the changes of the times.
The study of the Duke of Godel's mansion.
Dirio, who always maintained the noble demeanor in front of outsiders, was standing nervously and respectfully in front of an old man with silver silk head.
The old man who carries white hair meticulously looks about 70 years old. He is Pompeii Gödel, who is a member of parliament, and Dirio's father.
Dirio's two brothers were released to the local area as governor and mayor in their early years. Now the only direct people of the Godel family who live in the Duke's Mansion are Dirio, as well as his parents Pompeii and Mary.
Godel took a sip of black tea elegantly and gently placed the tea cup on the tray on the table.
"Dilio, you have a high opinion of that special counsel?"
"Yes, father."
Dirio, who was sitting opposite Pompeii, bowed his head respectfully and replied, "He saved my life. At that time... I really thought I was dead."
Recalling the fear of being touched by death's cheek, Dirio still feels still scared.
"Hmph~"
Pompeii snorted dissatisfiedly, "Mary has protected you so well since she was a child. A little bit of wind and rain scared you out of your mind."
Dirio smiled bitterly and said, "Father, that's not a little bit of wind and rain. I almost couldn't come back."
"Forget it, this experience is a good thing for you. I hope you can think twice before acting in the future and stop jumping like before."
Pompeii saw Dirio nodding respectfully and sighed, "Get back to the point, have you investigated the detailed information of that...Merser Lockson?"
"Yes, please check it out."
I had known for a long time that Dirio had done his homework in advance to ask him about this matter... although most of the intelligence information was started through the channels of the spy processing department.
"Well, wait for me for a few minutes."
Pompeii picked up presbyopia glasses from the small red sandalwood cabinet next to him and put them on the bridge of his nose. He took a thin piece of intelligence record from his young son and began to read it attentively.
Dirio was sitting opposite him honestly. Compared to his gentle and doting mother Mary, his father was very strict with Dirio since childhood. Almost all the knowledge Dirio learned was barely mastered under the pressure of Pompeii.
There was not much information about Messe, and it took Pompeii only a few minutes to read the content submitted by Dirio.
"I roughly understand the situation."
After putting down reading glasses, Pompeii said to Dirio with a serious expression, "Like other awakened people, Lockson only awakened powerful power after opening the door for the first time."
"But he is much calmer than the other awakened young people. You should still remember how those people in your department were recruited?"
"certainly."
A sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of Dirio's mouth. "We noticed that most people, including Peleus and Helmuk, have actively revealed their strength."
"After we revealed the government's identity, Hurmuk was still fine. Peleus once expressed resistance, but in the end he joined under the 'persuasion' of Bardebe."
"That's right."
Pompei nodded and said, "Including Vivian and Yali, they will inevitably experience a state of inflated mentality after suddenly having power, and unconsciously use their abilities, which will be discovered by the secret service department."
"Only people like Bardebe can calm down and never actively expose themselves."
"But he is a soldier and is unlikely to object to the solicitation of publicly published by state institutions."
Valdebe was originally a lieutenant of the naval lieutenant of the Republic. After the Nordic Republic first issued a notice within the military and administrative agencies, including the Director of the Special Operations Department, most awakened people in the military and political circles accepted the solicitation early... or in other words, they were transferred to the ranks.
"From this perspective, this Messer Lockson is much more mature than most of his younger counterparts, not to mention that he has powerful powers far beyond others."
'similar……'
Dirio raised his brow slightly, and his father's words made him feel something was wrong instinctively.
Pompeii did not focus on his youngest son. He lowered his head and thought for a moment and said, "Try to win him over for our faction, at least not let him stand completely in the presidential faction."
"In today's era of change, people with powerful powers have some privileges, not to mention useful people like Lockson who have key knowledge."
Dirio replied clearly, "Father, even if you don't say it, I will try to contact him more, but...what if he refused firmly?"
Pompeii glanced at Dirio with the corner of his eyes lightly, and his emotional look made Dirio's heart jump suddenly.
"This kind of talent must be used by us. If not, at least we should avoid letting him stand on our hostile side... I don't need to teach you the rest, right?"
"I have more important things to play with the president, and this task will be left to you."
"A last reminder."
Pompeii leaned against the sofa with his hands on his side, looked at Dirio's suspicious look, and said with a smile, "Until he has absolute certainty to grasp the other party, he must not be hostile to our faction."
"Don't embarrass your clumsy tricks to come to the stage. Think carefully about how he should make him feel disgusted with the presidential faction."
"If you really get angry with such powerful people... I won't take care of the entire family to save you, just take action."
