The fifth king of the elves

Chapter 100 100. Broken Mask

Luther didn't bring the sackcloth this time, and the sackcloth only knew that Luther would go back to deal with some trivial matters and would be back soon.

Luther and Oleander set off at dawn, and they didn't return to Shuangye Town until noon, but Carunai and Sirona were already waiting at the roadside platform.

"Let me introduce, this is Adu, the champion of the Kanto region."

It was only then that Luther noticed the red-haired hunk next to him. After shaking hands with each other, Luther found that the lineup was unprecedentedly strong.

In fact, this is also what Oleander requested. She doesn't want to use Interpol to cooperate. The credibility of the champion is far from what Interpol can match now.

"The elves from Dr. Yamanashi's Institute have also dispersed nearby, and our elves are responsible for guiding them to build an encirclement."

No one thinks that such a large formation is wrong. They have confronted organizations that research boosters several times, and Oleander, who suffered the most, almost lost his life.Now that there is finally a clue, no matter what the final result is, it is worth doing just for this possibility.

"Luther, you know your mission."

Caroline looked at Luther.

"I sent a text message to Dean Qilan before going to bed last night. During the trip, I stopped by the old residence in Yangxin City and found a document left by my parents in the dark compartment. Because the content is very strange, I want to bring it back and show it to him."

Everyone looked at Luther in surprise. The original plan was to let Luther say that he felt something when he went back to his parents' house, and came back to ask Qilan about his parents' past, so as to open the gap, but Luther didn't seem to like this statement and changed the script.

"Let him play. He is the protagonist of this matter. Anyway, I believe in Luther's judgment."

Carunai's words were regarded as approval of Luther's approach.

"Be careful, what you have to face may no longer be the Qilan you are familiar with."

Sirona exhorted.

Oleander gave Luther a ring tied with a transparent silk thread, and Luther put it on his hand blankly with her help. There was a small mechanism on the other end of the thread, which was directly connected to the button of the Poké Ball.

The recording pen was also stuffed into Luther's coat pocket by oleander.

"I happened to be able to do the same thing that Ranyan used to attack you. You have seen the trigger method at Ranyan, so I won't talk about it. Just to remind you, it really doesn't work. It's important to save your life. It doesn't matter if you kill him."

"Oleander, don't indoctrinate Luther with your thoughts, he is different from you! Also, kill him, how can we continue to discover the augmentation device incident?"

Carunai's cold warning made Oleander shrug her shoulders: "I'll remind your boyfriend, you're going to yell at me? Clues or something, he's lived here for more than [-] years, doesn't he contact his own organization? If you want clues, this nursing home is the biggest clue, as long as you keep digging, you won't be afraid to find it."

Ignoring Carunai and Oleander, A'Du stuffed a poke ball to Luther, asking him to attach silk threads and mechanisms to the poke ball.

"I heard about your ability on the road, but your elf may not have faced such a scene. My family has more experience."

Luther held the Poké Ball containing the fast dragon, and couldn't help saying thank you.

This is one of A'Du's housekeeping spirits. Depending on A'Du's bondage to Kuailong, this one can even be removed.

The trainer's ace elf is not easy to borrow.

Luther approached step by step the nursing home where he had left for more than two months, but the familiar scene in front of him gave him an indescribable sense of strangeness.

Memories rolled in his mind. He could remember playing under the tree when he had no phobia, and he couldn't help hugging the elf when he saw it.

I can see myself feeding the sweet nectar to Nidorino and Nidolan who have become King Nidolan and Nidolan, and I can also see the large needle bees living in groups on a few trees not far away, watching me curiously.

The former colleagues looked at him curiously, and his curiosity prompted him to lean over and ask him what happened. Luther tried his best to keep a smile, answered a few words perfunctorily, and went straight to Dean Qilan's office.

"Come in."

Luther pushed open the door as if opening the door to another world.

I didn't notice it when I first came to this world, but now I feel it is very obvious.

Qilan's office is full of an old, decaying sense of incongruity, which is completely different from the well-decorated nursing home.

Dusty books were stuffed on the bookshelf, the clock that didn't know what went wrong was still not repaired by Qilan, and the newspapers and magazines stacked in the corner were already yellowed.

It wasn't until this time that Luther realized that the creeper outside Qilan's office window was about to squeeze into the window, and Qilan didn't intend to take care of it.

"I thought you would come back later." Qi Lan's smile was very warm, just like every time I saw it in my memory.

Luther sat down across the desk.

"You look very anxious in the message, of course I can't procrastinate."

Luther felt that he really had the talent for acting, and his tone and speed were the same as before.

Qilan still had that familiar smile, and Luther finally understood that he only had this kind of smile, just like the professional fake smiles he had seen before.

The file bag was taken out of Luther's backpack, and Qilan's slightly squinted eyes showed a strange light. From the corner of Luther's eyes, he saw the fleeting ecstasy on his face, and calmly put the file that Caroni gave him on his knee.

"I saw a lot of traces of my parents' previous life in my old residence in Yangxin City. I was young when they left... I don't think I've heard you mention them. You should be both teachers and friends, right? Can you tell me about them?"

"It's rare for you to be so carefree. I really don't know what you saw in the old residence." Qi Lan said, "What do you want to know about your parents?"

"When I was a student, I traveled for so long. I found that although the traveling school had encounters and adventures, it did not have the accumulation and foundation of the academic school. My parents... their stories at school are very exciting, right?"

The smile on Qilan's face finally changed to something else, and the wrinkles on his old face were crowded together. He laughed out loud, and answered after a while wiping away his tears.

"Contrary to what you might think, they lead very dull lives."

"They met and fell in love with each other in college, but the way they dated was to find a laboratory to verify their views and ideas. From the time they fell in love until they got married, they didn't seriously choose a gift for each other. Even the wedding was too hasty, because they had you first, so they hurried to get married."

"Family members on both sides passed away early, and only a few seniors in the same grade, friends from the same department, the advisor Ralphie and I participated in the wedding."

"The first gift your father gave your mother was an ice dragon. Guess how that ice dragon got here?"

Luther shook his head.

"Professor Ralfi specially sent it to Professor Ralfi after Carlos' friend performed the fossil resurrection, and he gave it to your mother as a gift. Now you understand, your parents are far from having a wonderful life in the academy."

Luther laughed, isn't that enough?

Perhaps in Qi Lan's eyes, the standard of happiness is as ethereal as a cloud.

"What are they studying at the academy?"

"Elf evolution, mutation. It's not an unpopular subject. Dr. Yamanashi also researched evolution during his advanced studies. Your parents are very talented. Professor Ralfi said that they will become the leaders of the Rainbow University research school sooner or later. As Professor Ralfi's assistant, I agree very much."

"You can't imagine their unconstrained ideas and bold speculations. The paper they wrote was amazing. In order to protect them, Professor Ralfi destroyed that paper."

Qi Lan's eyes were fixed on Luther, and Luther raised the document on his knee.

"You're talking about this document? The experimental report on the elf's evolution controllability device."

Qi Lan was stunned when she heard the name, and the smile on her face was gradually occupied by a desire visible to the naked eye.

"I've never heard of this name. I'm sure that's not the content of your parents' thesis. Your parents' first thesis was the discovery of the possibility of interfering with elves' evolution and the feasibility of manufacturing elves' ability enhancement devices."

"Then this one in my hand..."

"It is undoubtedly the masterpiece left by your parents when they traveled around the world after graduation!"

Luther put the document on the table and handed it to Qilan.

When Qi Lan reached out to take it, she found that Luther was pressing on the document tightly and did not let go.

"I want to ask the dean a question, what do you think of my parents...?"

Qi Lan froze, looked deeply at Luther for a long time, and asked, "Have you seen a genius?"

"Does Sirona count?"

"Do you know what Sirona is called by some trainers?"

Luther shook his head slowly.

"Dream Crusher." Qilan sneered, "Under her rule, no one can surpass her. Countless people comfort themselves that they can surpass her as long as they work hard. In the end, they who have put in a hundred times and a thousand times of effort, stepped on that stage, and were easily crushed by Sirona in an instant."

"In the eyes of outsiders, she is an unrivaled myth, an enviable benchmark, glory, flowers, applause, all belong to her, as for the people under her shadow... who will notice them?"

"Since the day your parents entered Rainbow University, they have been favored by Ralfi, who studies evolutionary propositions. All the cheers, encouragement, and honors belong to them. If it weren't for that sharp paper...they would be the leaders of Rainbow University's evolutionary school."

Luther let go, Qilan took the document and carefully opened it.

When he put a whole stack of files on the table, he looked at Luther with nothing but astonishment and...coldness.

It is rare to see such emotions on Qilan's face. The moment the fake smile peeled off, Luther finally saw Qilan's real side.

"Dean Qilan, this may be the last time I will call you that." Luther leaned forward, his cold eyes piercing into Qilan's eyes, "You are the real you right now."
