The professors looked at them in confusion. The expressions of Professor Leon and Professor Tesmi, who had experienced the Great Migration of Spin City, changed from doubt to thinking.
What did they think of.
"Is he a descendant of the exorcist?" Professor Tesmi flipped his monocle to see more clearly.
Professor Nuno Alexandrovich shook his head slightly.
"No, it's him."
The ward fell into dead silence for an instant, and Professor Leon and Professor Tesmi were so shocked that they could not speak.
Only two other professors were still puzzled.
"Nuno, I never knew you liked riddles so much." Professor Daisy Schmidt said impatiently.
"It's the story of an exorcist from the old days." Professor Nuno Alexandrovich told them the story of Lu Li.
"legend……"
Professor Daisy Schmidt didn't know what she was thinking.
"Nuno, are you sure you didn't recognize the wrong person?" Professor Cesar asked with a frown.
"I will never admit my mistake." Professor Nuno Alexandrovich looked at Professor Leon and Professor Tesmi: "And both Leon and Tesmi also recognized Mr. Lu Li."
Professor Leon and Professor Tesmi were like Professor Nuno Alexandrovich not long ago, caught up in their own memories and excitement.
"How did you find this...Mr. Lu Li?"
Professor Cesar was very suspicious.
"They found me." Professor Nuno Alexandrovich told the story of Lu Li and Katerina coming from Gange Town.
Professor Cesar's scrutinizing gaze fell on Lu Li: "The Light Stealer left not long ago, how did you get here?"
"Cursed title, Lighthouse." Catalina suddenly spoke at this moment, raising her head proudly: "This is Lu Li... the cursed title you received on the road, and the giver was the Emerald Dream."
Catalina can understand this situation. Just like she sells goods to Old Pete, and then Old Pete will look for shortcomings and lower the price. Professor Cesar is also "lowering the price," so she has to do the opposite: raise the price.
.
After the words fell, descriptions of cursed titles emerged in the minds of the elderly people in the ward.
"The Emerald Dream..." Professor Cesar whispered, dissipating some of his doubts. "But we still can't completely trust you two. Mr. Lu Li is a pure human, right? We will confirm his identity."
"How long will it take?"
Katerina feels like everything is getting worse again
She didn't like this kind of waiting. For Catalina, who had never been lucky, waiting usually meant bad luck.
This makes Catalina accustomed to infer the ending from the worst possible outcome.
"It won't be too troublesome. As long as Mr. Lu Li is still a human being and has not been tainted into a stranger, I can answer some questions." Professor Cesar said.
"What if not?" Katerina asked.
"It might be a little more troublesome...but if Mr. Lu Li's identity is confirmed, it doesn't matter whether he is a stranger or not," Professor Cesar replied.
Professor Nuno Alexandrovich suddenly said to him: "I have given them the peas."
Those two golden beans can reveal the truth.
"You..." Professor Cesar was about to scold him, but then he softened his tone when he remembered something: "You are too hasty, Nuno, don't be so reckless next time."
"There will be no next time..." Professor Nuno Alexandrovich smiled wryly and gently rubbed his right arm, looking at Lu Li: "We believe in your identity, but we still need to confirm it for the sake of Midnight City."
"Can."
Lu Li understands this caution. If people are careless, they will not survive until now, and they will not be able to rebuild civilization.
"I want to ask something." Lu Li said.
"If we knew." Professor Cesar replied.
"About the Shadow of the Evil Girl."
The four professors shook their heads in thought and told Lu Li that they had never heard of the Shadow of the Girl.
Lu Li, whose dark eyes slightly drooped, asked about the merchants again. At first, the professors thought that Lu Li was talking about ordinary merchants or the Earth Dwellers Chamber of Commerce. After learning more, Professor Cesar told him: "The Earth Dwellers Chamber of Commerce originated from the underground and has a mysterious background.
, if you want to get close to the 'businessman' described, you may be able to find some clues there."
"The traces of the girl's shadow are very important to me." Lu Li said.
"Leave it to us!" The hot-tempered Professor Leon broke away from his memories and replied impatiently.
Before his identity is confirmed, Lu Li needs to stay at Crans University.
Professor Tesmi stayed to take care of Professor Nuno Alexandrovich, Professor Cesar led Lu Li and Catalina to the conference room, and Professor Leon and Daisy Schmidt took the news to the giant tree.
"Nuno is too old and wants to see the birth of hope with his own eyes." Professor Cesar said quietly in the corridor.
Desolate light poured into the corridor from the window on one side, and a giant tree blocking the sky stood in the distance. Lu Li and Professor Cesar walked side by side, and Catalina followed behind, always looking at the giant tree outside the window.
"Have you already established Midnight City?" Lu Li said.
"This is not the hope of mankind, or the hope of the past..." Professor Cesar shook his head. "Nuno is a fundamentalist. He is more like the people in the Vina Ice-free Port. He wants to restore the past glory instead of fighting against the weird.
Combined, they become something nondescript."
The word "neither fish nor fowl" shows that Professor Cesar agrees with Professor Nuno Alexandrovich's theory.
This is not the first time Lu Li has heard about the difference between Weiner Freeze Port and the towns in the Desolate Land. According to Professor Cesar, the Main Continent hopes to return to the track of the past, and weirdness can only be used as a tool rather than the core.
.Desolate Lands think the opposite, believing that weirdness is part of the future, which is the development trend of civilization.
It is equivalent to being divided into fundamentalists and revisionists.
"Is the feeling of fragmentation serious?"
"No. The two sides just have different views. After all, we have a common enemy."
Turning into the corridor outside the conference room, reaching the end, Professor Cesar opened the conference room door.
Two figures who had arrived not long ago were waiting for them in the conference room.
"Your Excellency Lu Li, welcome back." A middle-aged man in traditional clothes greeted Lu Li warmly.
"Dean Lawrence." Professor Cesar frowned and called out his identity, looking at Professor Daisy Schmidt next to him: "Why are you here? Where is Professor Leon?"
"We split up and Professor Leon went under the tree." Professor Daisy Schmidt smiled: "I went to call the dean."
Next to him, Dean Lawrence also introduced himself to Lu Li: "Sir, Lu Li, I am Vladimir Lawrence, the dean of Klein University."
"Why did you find the dean? We haven't confirmed Mr. Lu Li's identity yet." Professor Cesar looked at Professor Daisy Schmidt warily.
"Nuno, Leon and Tesmi all recognized him, can it still be fake?" Professor Daisy Schmidt shook her head and said.
