Just when the Elf Royal Court entered a state of preparation for war under this order.
Below the floating land.
Capital of Shu.
On a certain road, a long queue of cars was traveling fast.
Most of them have licenses from the Magic City and travel across mountains, rivers and seas. These are the various research institutes and research teams in the Magic City.
Different from Cheng Lin's light and simple approach, this group of researchers had to bring instruments and research equipment. In addition, almost every research team sent people this time, and the large number made the convoy even more spectacular.
In a dark domestic car in the middle of the convoy.
Wu Mingxun, the director of the Magic City Reiki Research Institute, was sitting in the back seat. His hair was meticulously combed, his glasses were sharp, but he could not hide the tiredness between his brows.
From the time he got the news, applied, and waited for the approval reply from the Special Agents Department and other departments, he hardly took a break. He led the entire team and coordinated with other research institutes, which was quite energy-consuming.
Especially... there is still a subtle competition with the research institutes in the imperial capital.
Just now, he squinted in the car for a while, but after receiving the latest news, he couldn't sleep again.
"Gada."
Typing on the laptop keyboard on his knees, Wu Mingxun enlarged the picture on the screen. It was the picture accidentally taken by the satellite obtained by the head of the 13th Division.
The photo was originally blurry, but after magnification, the clarity became even worse. The lens on the bridge of Wu Mingxun's nose reflected a faint blue-green light. He concentrated for a moment and said, "Do you have any ideas?"
Senior Sister Meng, who was also sitting in the back seat of the car and wearing a researcher uniform, turned her head and looked at the photo.
Hearing the teacher's question, she hesitated and said: "These should be the otherworldly beings saved by Senior Cheng in the scene played before. Well...according to the Internet, this kind of creature is similar to some of the creatures we imagined."
A race called elves are somewhat similar."
Yes, in addition to putting the term "Senior Dark Cheng" on the hot search list, that video from the sky also caused a lot of discussion among the people. It was the elf-like creature in the picture.
They seem to be alien creatures, and they are somewhat similar to the fictional races created by human literary and artistic works. This is quite topical.
Of course, people would not foolishly think that alien life is based on the literary and artistic works of the earth. Then... there seems to be only one possibility. Could the creator of the fictional elves design based on the prototype?
Has he seen this kind of alien life?
Or a mysterious revelation in a dream?
This kind of mystical stuff has always been a passion among netizens.
Apart from these occult fans, the other ones who are more excited are the game and animation lovers. Is it possible to break the dimensional wall? Elf girls in games and animations really exist. Are you excited?
Happy or not?
However, Wu Mingxun’s focus is obviously not on this, “Yes, it is very likely that it is the ‘elf’ that appeared in the picture, and this kind of creature obviously has quite high intelligence.
In past projections, traces of advanced beings from other worlds have appeared many times, but after all, they are just traces... Those traces have made the country...
No, the world's scientific community is crazy about it, but unfortunately, no real living higher life has been encountered yet."
"Almost all of the creatures that appear are beast-like creatures that cannot communicate and can only be studied. But this time... maybe it will really be different."
"Teacher, what do you mean..." Senior Sister Meng took a deep breath.
Wu Mingxun nodded, with an excited look on his tired face: "What if there are living higher beings in this projection? What impact will it have on our world and our research? Xiao Meng, I want to
Think about it!”
After a pause, Professor Wu continued: "If the guess is true, this trip to the capital of Shu will be recorded in the history of human civilization! And we, as people who have experienced it, can unearth many research results from it.
Just look at it this time!"
…

north.
Spiritual Land No. 16.
Ren Yi, the head of internal scientific research of Jiusi, was sitting in a certain room.
On a huge screen, the entire computing center composed of several computer groups continuously projects data on the screen. Those complex symbols are rolling in like a tide. Almost every second, they will roll down four or five screens, which is difficult for ordinary people to see.
Remember, you're good as long as you don't feel dizzy.
But Ren Yi just glanced at the screen with a calm face, his left hand stuffed in the pocket of his white coat, and his right hand holding a cup of coffee, drinking it leisurely.
Occasionally, I press pause, and then hold a stylus to draw out some data strings.
Only when it is paused can you see clearly that what is being analyzed on the screen is two videos!
One section is about Senior Cheng holding a sword in the frozen soil.
One paragraph is the latest evil edition predecessor.
The computer is trying to compare and analyze two fragmented and heavily edited videos to find some results.
"Crack."
Ren Yi pressed pause again, and then stared at the screen with a pair of bright eyes behind the red-rimmed glasses.
Thoughtful.
Suddenly, a message sounded on the notebook next to him. It was a photo of the elf looking up at the sky. Ren Yi was startled, and then looked at the note of the person who sent the message.
"Senior sister?"
…
…
A photo that makes countless people feel excited.
Due to the confidentiality level, this photo was not circulated on the Internet for a short period of time, but was circulated within a few departments.
Most people are just curious.
People like the Demon City Research Group led by Wu Mingxun and the research team from the Imperial City are excited and impatient. They know that it may contain major events that can be engraved in the history of human civilization for thousands of years.
And the heads of supernatural organizations in various countries.
The big shots in Xia Guo's Secret Service were all sitting in the conference room, discussing an important topic with serious faces:
If there really are elves inside...what should humans do?
This topic is extremely important and closely related. However, what is interesting is that the discussion took only a short time to determine the direction.
Not for anything else, just because humans have discussed similar assumptions countless times.
…
…
Cheng Lin didn't know about these great turmoils hidden under the calm.
At this moment, in the thick night of Shu capital, he was sitting leisurely in the back seat of a Volkswagen. He turned his head and looked at the silent fields outside the half-raised window, feeling the movement of the car on the rugged road.
of bumps.
The weak interior lights were on, but they could not fully illuminate the interior of the car. Gu Cheng held the steering wheel and stared at the pits in front of the windshield seriously, trying to avoid them. The red and green dials were faint and constructed.
There was a somewhat lonely atmosphere.
Jiang Ye was sitting in the co-pilot, holding his mobile phone and switching back and forth between chat groups, spiritual forums and map applications.
Cheng Lin didn't care about the precise work of the entire exploration and left it to the Taoist couple. He was so happy that he relaxed all over.
"I just received news that the Thirteenth Division has also sent people to garrison in several nearby towns, but it is of little use and cannot stop people. The only trouble it causes us is that we have no place to stay, so we have to camp in the wild.
"The mobile phone screen illuminated Jiang Ye's face completely white, she said.
"Well, it's okay."
Cheng Lin came back from his endless wandering and said casually.
"I plan to avoid most villages from here and wait for the projection to solidify."
"Well, you decide."
"There is nothing wrong with this place. It is very likely that it will be targeted by others. I have the ability to teleport so I don't have to worry about this."
"Well, that's pretty good."
Jiang Ye: "..."
She had a headache. She looked at Cheng Lin's indifferent and casual look in the rearview mirror. Jiang Ye and Gu Cheng looked at each other, both speechless. They thought, are they really here to explore?
It's a bit too casual, just trusting the two of you so much? Are you not afraid of cheating him once?
After all, 2v1, killing and stealing is not uncommon in the world of illegal casual cultivators.
But how did they know that Cheng Lin really didn't care.
With his current level of cultivation at the peak of the third level, he is almost among the best among casual cultivators. Except for a few leaders of large organizations who are stronger than him, the rest of the small fish and shrimps... pose no threat at all.
Of course, this does not mean that he has completely lost his caution. In fact, when he leaned on the back of the chair and closed his eyes to rest, his mental "tentacles" had already been released, rising straight up, observing the surroundings of the car. Once he encountered
When danger comes, he can detect it immediately.
"Unfortunately, the projection is too high this time. Even if my spiritual tentacles fly to the floating land, it will be difficult to obtain enough picture information."
Cheng Lin felt a little emotional. At this time, he missed the "Silver Moon Cane" very much.
Outside the car window, in the hazy night, the floating land in the sky became clearer and clearer. They had now left the Shu capital area and were wandering around some towns in the province. This area had entered a predetermined large area.
In the sky, countless densely packed world tree branches hang down like waterfalls.
However, the most drooping branches are still hundreds of meters from the ground.
If it weren't for Jiang Ye, it would be really troublesome to get up there.
"How about helping them pick a few spiritual plants after we get up there? Can this be regarded as a reward for helping?"
"Then, how do I enter the World Tree? What method should I use? The main reason is that I don't know the current situation of the Elf King's Court."
The thoughts in his mind were going back and forth, and Cheng Lin couldn't make up his mind for a while.
At this moment, suddenly, his cell phone rang.
Cheng Lin was startled, and when he took it out, he saw that it was an unfamiliar number.
Frowning slightly, Cheng Lin stopped the car.
Then under Jiang Ye's puzzled eyes, he got out of the car and walked out for a short distance. Then he pressed answer and put it to his ear. The next moment he heard a very low voice on the other end: "Is it No. 91?"
"...It's me, what's wrong?"
Cheng Lin blinked, and he recognized it. The voice was clearly that of the college counselor!
The counselor called me from an unfamiliar number? Instead of calling me by name, I used my student ID as a hint?
What is this for?
"Mr. Huang said that something is not right this time. If you go in, you can do everything else flexibly, but there is one thing you must remember! That is, if you encounter advanced alien life, the so-called 'elves',
Unless you are facing a life or death crisis, you will never be allowed to take the initiative to attack!"
"Did you hear that? Repeat it again, Spirit Plant. Ordinary beasts can do whatever they want, but when it comes to advanced intelligent life, active attacks are absolutely prohibited! This is the latest policy of the headquarters! Hear the reply!"
The counselor lowered his voice, but you could still hear the seriousness and seriousness in his tone.
"What if someone else tried to do this?" Cheng Lin asked.
After two seconds of silence, the other person said:
"Stop it within your power!"
Hearing this, Cheng Lin blinked, took a breath, and replied calmly: "Received, please rest assured."
After saying that, he turned off his phone and returned to the vehicle.
When he closed the door again, Jiang Ye, the passenger in front, couldn't help but asked cautiously: "Are you okay?"
In the rearview mirror, Cheng Lin gave a mysterious smile: "It's okay, just keep on going."
