Professor Nuno Alexandrovich was angry with Katarina for not understanding the importance of Lu Li, and told her the legendary story of how Lu Li went to the Old River Plain alone, the Dark Fields, to solve the third disaster and almost succeeded.
More importantly, Lu Li has not been lost in the flow of time.
He is still young and still has time to do many things.
Catalina still couldn't regard Lu Li, whom she had always been with, as a hero only in legends. But she soon remembered that Lu Li had successfully left the Emerald Dream and had a cursed title.
It is indeed difficult for ordinary people to do it.
"Curse title? That's just an insignificant thing in Your Excellency Lu Li's experience." Professor Nuno Alexandrovich seemed to be an admirer of Lu Li and believed in his abilities unconditionally.
"Your Excellency Lu Li is an exorcist with the title of the one who sounds the death knell of the evil god."
"Has the person who sounded the death knell of the evil god? A cursed title?" Katarina asked doubtfully as she did not receive any revelation about the cursed title in her heart.
"It is an honorary title in the old days, and its meaning is..."
Professor Nuno Alexandrovich's eyes became as clear as a young man's: "Your Excellency Lu Li once killed a...god with his own hands."
"Gods..." Katarina murmured and repeated, feeling the weight of this word. "The... kind in this town?"
"Yes."
Professor Nuno Alexandrovich breathed a sigh of relief and suppressed his excitement: "So do you understand what it means that Mr. Lu Li is still alive and young?"
Before Katerina responded, Professor Nuno Alexandrovich had already asked and answered his own questions, shouting excitedly like a young man: "Maybe this is the weird prelude to our counterattack, a great poem for mankind to return to the stage!"
"Your mood is not right." Lu Li looked at Professor Nuno Alexandrovich calmly.
Although emotions that have been suppressed for too long can be vented, and the people under the roof can understand the old man's excitement when they see the rain has passed and the sky is clear, an old professor should not be like this.
He was panting rapidly, drool dripping from the corners of his mouth so feverishly that he didn't even notice.
Lu Li's reminder brought back the old man who was sinking into madness. He closed his eyes and closed his eyes for a while to calm down. Then he said to Lu Li in a dry voice: "I'm sorry, Mr. Lu Li, I was so excited...I almost fell into delirium."
Professor Nuno Alexandrovich lowered his head and rubbed his bandaged right hand: "It has been affecting me... amplifying my emotions."
They didn't dwell on Professor Nuno Alexandrovich for too long. Lu Li asked about what happened after he disappeared.
Catalina was born in a strange era and only lived around the town of Gange, so her knowledge was limited.
"The time of silence becomes the time of silence, and your deeds are spread to every corner of the earth, and then..."
Then the fourth disaster "Light Stealer" was born, the Lennon Islands were shattered by powerful force, the world was shrouded in darkness, and entered a strange era.
Storm Point was not safe for long. The sea area it faced turned into a sinking sea. While people were rescuing themselves, they began to look for the next safe place to live.
After surviving for several years, the fire of Midnight Town lit up in the depths of the desolate land shrouded in darkness. People gathered there to make the fire brighter, and then dispersed the fire——
Thinking of the "Illustrated Book of Weird Colonies", Lu Li asked how to eliminate the anomalies in the book. Professor Nuno Alexandrovich couldn't help but nervously asked Lu Li if he had read it.
Lu Li told the truth about the delirium he saw. When he heard that the vision was suppressed and returned to the book, Professor Nuno Alexandrovich breathed a sigh of relief: "This book comes from the inside, and it represents danger and pollution to many people outside.
.If you want to read it, you need some special methods..."
"in?"
“The real Crans University.”
"Isn't it here?"
Professor Nuno Alexandrovich's old face showed disappointment and contradictory pride: "This is just the appearance of the University of Crans."
Without explaining too much, he took out a wooden box and opened it. There were several pea-like oval golden beans lying inside.
"Eat them and then go to the window."
"What is this?" Catalina pinched the golden beans of denial, doubt once again gaining the upper hand.
"The Midnight Church distributes it to you, allowing you to see what is hidden by the Alchemy Tower...it is a prerequisite for becoming a resident." Professor Nuno Alexandrovich explained, and the last sentence was specifically addressed to Katarina.
Catalina looked at Lu Li and saw that he had already taken the golden beans, so she had no choice but to follow suit.
Lu Li walked to the window and looked outside.
The direction here is the backside of the "Appearance" Kleins University. After a brief period of calm, Lu Li's eyes were suddenly and unconsciously attracted to the towering black alchemy tower in the distance. The indescribable power made him resonate with the alchemy tower, and he was naturally accepted.
A sense of familiarity.
The stretching buildings suddenly looked like a calm lake rippled by the breeze, causing ripples and erasing the reflection, revealing the reality underneath the lake——
Towering trees that cover the sky and the sun stand on the ground, and their lush canopy almost blocks the sky. There are wooden houses built on the branches that are wider than the streets.
Catalina opened her mouth wide and was speechless in shock.
"Do you find it strange when you come to Crans University? Why are there almost no students and why is the surrounding area so desolate?"
Professor Nuno Alexandrovich's voice came from behind.
“Because that’s the real Rick Lanes University.”
The alchemy towers that stand all over Midnight City surround this World Tree, and the meaning of their existence is to cover it up.
Lu Li stared at the tree crowns that covered the sky and the ant-like figures on the branches: "What's the difference between appearance and reality?"
"Knowledge."
Professor Nuno Alexandrovich's voice sounded from the hospital bed.
“It seems like we at Klein University only teach basic ‘useless’ knowledge.”
He emphasized in vain: "Plantation, archeology, linguistics, basic knowledge..."
"What about up there?" Catalina stared at the giant tree blankly, and suddenly she couldn't resist the urge to climb up the giant tree and live on it.
"Really useful, but cursed knowledge."
Suddenly, a burst of chaotic footsteps came from the corridor outside the door, getting closer and closer.
"Old guy, you won't let us come to visit you just because you fell, right?"
The door was pushed open, and rough shouts rang out as several old people came in.
"I just want you to meet someone." Professor Nuno Alexandrovich smiled mysteriously, as if he was expecting something: "Leon, Tessmi, do you know this... Mr.?"
Several professors looked at Lu Li.
"Your nephew?" asked Leon, who shouted roughly as he came in.
Professor Nuno Alexandrovich reminded in a mysterious tone: "Black hair, black eyes, the Great Migration of the Spin City, what did you think of?"
