Volume 14: The Universe at 23 Degrees Celsius Chapter 22: Extraordinary Allies
"But then again, as the Tenth Crown of Holy Light, why are you here instead of dealing with issues in the Council?"
"…My level is not up to God level, so I can't handle so many things."
"Ah, that's right. Sometimes your performance is so outstanding that I often forget that you are actually just a second-level magic awakening."
Seeing Li Lin's frustrated look, the professor also showed an expression of sudden realization.
The Holy Light faction has so many gods that they are almost like an inverted pyramid, and they have to think about how to find more people every year. But it may be the first time in history that someone has become their leader before reaching the level of a god. But the Holy Light faction is extremely stubborn, and they will reward those who have made contributions, and they will never delay, so this situation has occurred.
The 10th Crown can only be commanded remotely or with the help of other members of the parliament, which can be said to be a shame for the Holy Light. Li Lin is also a person who cares about face, and he can't just hang around there like a mediocre person. So he came out to look for possible merits and benefits. Obviously, it was for this reason that he arrived at the Magellan Line. Because it was embarrassing, he couldn't report directly or find any Holy Light warships for assimilation. Li Lin couldn't sit still, so he could only come here to explore intelligence.
Although everyone thought that Li Lin was on vacation, even the professor thought so when he first came. But Li Lin still deceived himself that his actions were still strategically significant. However, he also knew what was going on.
Especially when he saw the professor's half-smile, Li Lin felt so angry. This was too embarrassing.
"Then why are you here, professor? And why are you making such a big fuss with the university?"
“Archaeological research.”
"……ha?"
"Yes, it's really just archaeological research."
Looking at Li Lin's expression that said, "You're kidding me," the professor smiled and shrugged.
"But we are studying the wonders of the universe, so it's normal to have more people. This kind of research is likely to be recorded in the first three pages of the catalog of world scientific discoveries. It is only natural that it can receive such attention."
"ha?"
"One hundred and three professors, fourteen deans, and two vice deans. The subject that has been studied for countless years has come to an end today... but you should not have been involved, lucky guy. It seems that every time there is a major turning point in the world, you seem to be there? But this time you may not be recorded as a person on record. Because you just happened to meet the right person while on vacation."
"So what's going on?"
Looking at the archaeology professor with an expression that said 'I'm just showing off', Li Lin always felt that the professor's behavior seemed a little familiar.
That's right, just like those gift givers who secretly hide some small surprises and don't tell others, and call it waiting for a wonderful shock. Although he knew that the matter involved might be as big as the original Decayed Sun God , Li Lin always felt that there seemed to be something else going on.
A secret is passing by you, but you have no way to participate in it, and you don't even know what the inside story is. But you know for sure that this big secret is really happening, which is more painful . Li Lin looked at the professor of archaeology who seemed to be waiting for something to say, and could only look at him with an expectant expression, hoping that this elder who had helped him a long time ago would help him again.
Soon, the professor sighed as he looked at his useless disciple.
"But now that I am the dean of the branch, I can invite an associate professor to join us... Didn't I tell you? Oh, it seems that I didn't tell you, because you were promoted to the tenth crown at that time, and I was outside finishing the last things so as to welcome the treasures inside."
"In fact, you should have some impression in your mind, right?"
For example, someone in Assistant Professor Sally's group.
Looking at the two lolis punching each other, the professor smiled and looked at Li Lin.
"What we want to know is the truth about certain things that happened in this universe, and obviously, this is the last piece of the puzzle. Of course, I have to thank some professors of demonology for their contributions. If it weren't for them, I wouldn't know about this place."
"But now it's a state of war..."
"Demons? Your wars? Oh, that's just a cycle of politics and ideals in this universe. Whether it's a bright universe or a dark universe, it doesn't affect the flowers of intellect. We don't care about those things. We just want to pursue the truth of this world. To explore the truth is more joyful than anything else."
Lights flashed, and the giant vehicle that was slowly driving out began to unfold on the spot. The various layers of equipment and inexplicable tools had already taken shape. The overall work was carried out at an incredibly fast speed.
Asura and Reinhardt were only stunned for a moment, and a city made of pure steel had already begun to rise in front of them. Countless mechanical monsters and star crystal beasts with obvious signs of biochemical transformation began to bring with them some human-like arcane servants, carrying various space expansion modules and materials in an organized manner, and built buildings of unknown purpose around them.
And in this lively atmosphere , Li Lin suddenly felt a little discordant.
"Isn't this teaching assistant Li Lin? It's been a long time since we last met. Haven't you forgotten that you are from the university?"
"Who are you……"
Looking at the dark red figure walking out of the photoelectric display, Li Lin frowned with some disgust.
"Demon Lord Olisis, associate professor of demonology, appointed by the dean. I met him once at a dinner party, but we didn't get to talk. But I didn't expect that you, who are now the tenth crown of Holy Light, would also be here on vacation. It's really a very interesting coincidence. Do you mind if we get to know each other?"
“…”
"Don't worry, the university doesn't have so many detailed divisions. You are all just researchers now, so there is no need to be too nervous."
Faced with Li Lin's sudden expression, the professor shrugged his shoulders and said it didn't matter.
"In fact, if he hadn't contributed the internal secrets of the Magellan Line, we probably wouldn't have known about the existence of these things. Moreover, he is not a demon now, strictly speaking. He has been cleansed and is very safe."
