"An Elf?"
Xu Sili was a little surprised. His first reaction was that the player who drew the rare race, the Sea Elf, had finally come out from the sea.
But …
Even if he came out from the sea, shouldn't he be staying in Glaze City? Why did he come to the Imperial City and break into the palace? Did he know that Xiao Haige was here?
Li Zheyu's expression was a little strange, as if he had something to say.
When Xu Sili asked, he said:
"This Elf … his behavior is very similar to the Warriors."
If it wasn't for his typical appearance, he would have thought that he was a fan of the Warriors who broke into the palace to see him, Wen Jishan, and Qiu Zheng.
Of course, other than Xiao Haige, he had never seen an Elf before, so he wasn't too sure.
Xu Sili nodded. He was more and more certain that this Elf was the player who drew the rare race.
He thought for a while and contacted Cha Mo. He told him the general situation and asked him to come to the palace when he was free. Then, he left the palace with Si Sheng.
As for the Elf player, he could deal with him when he came back.
The Shadow Leopard carried them and flapped its shadow wings, flying above the Imperial City.
Below them was the busy inner city. Compared to half a year ago, Roland had undoubtedly undergone tremendous changes.
Just half a month ago, Wen Jishan proposed that the inner city walls be demolished. After receiving his approval, this decision was firmly carried out.
Now, looking at the distance, they could no longer see the tall barrier that separated the inner and outer city.
In the past, the gap between the rich and poor in the inner city was like the gap between the first world and the third world, separated by a wall.
He hoped that with the removal of this barrier, the scale of the inner city would continue to expand and eventually spread to the entire Imperial City, making Roland's Imperial City the real capital of the Empire.
For the inner city, which was already becoming increasingly crowded and densely populated, this plan was definitely beneficial to the development and improvement of the people's quality of life.
However, any reform would have different opinions, even if Xu Sili's current support rate was as high as 99%.
"What are you thinking about?"
Si Sheng's voice sounded from behind her. His voice carried traces of warmth, dispelling the chill of early spring.
Xu Sili regained his senses and smiled. "I'm thinking that Roland will definitely become stronger and stronger. When all the problems are solved, we can put everything down and travel to the stars."
"Those days will definitely be great!"
Si Sheng's eyes lit up slightly. As the young man spoke, he couldn't help but look forward to the future.
What he didn't say was that being able to stay by the young man's side and hug him like this was already the best future for him … No, that wasn't right …
Si Sheng's previous conversation with Xu Yuheng surfaced in his mind.
"… Get my parents to agree to your marriage …"
Si Sheng narrowed his eyes. As long as Ali's parents approved of him, he could …
He opened his mouth slightly, wanting to ask something, but he suddenly remembered the way the young man drank to drown his sorrows. The sadness and loss in his eyes still made his heart ache when he thought of it.
The family that Ali mentioned earlier …
It seemed that they couldn't come to this world yet.
Si Sheng didn't mention Xu Sili's sad story. He silently tightened his arms.
"I'm looking forward to that day."
Hearing his whisper, Xu Sili curved his lips. He looked into the distance, but his body snuggled deeper into his arms.
Soon, the shadow leopard flew out of the Imperial City and swooped down to the canyon where Xiao Wu's military factory was located.
Next to the military factory, a new building rose from the ground. That was Dr. Ding Mingyu's research institute.
Although he was still a lone commander, fortunately, there was Xiao Wu, so Dr. Ting didn't feel lonely. Instead, after communicating with the little artificial intelligence, he had a lot of new ideas.
After Vril woke up, he looked like a burden had been lifted off his shoulders. He looked much more energetic than before.
However, he didn't seem to have expressed his feelings to Vir's aunt. After coming to Roland for so long, he spent most of his time in the research institute. He only went to the Imperial Palace occasionally.
This was a private matter between the two elders, so he didn't want to interfere.
As for Xiao Qiong's biological father … according to Vir's aunt, his parents were both from Ai Xue Xing. They were the descendants of the first generation of immigrants from Ai Xue Xing. They also contributed a lot to Roland.
Unfortunately, they died of illness before Xiao Qiong was born.
Xiao Qiong gradually accepted this matter. His relationship with Vir's aunt was getting better and better.
This child who had never felt a mother's love since he was young and lost his "father" at a young age finally received a love that belonged only to him.
He had always said that he would protect his older brother when he grew up. Now that there was one more, the young boy became more mature and introverted.
"Greetings, Your Majesty."
Dr. Ting came out of the research institute. He was about to salute when Xu Sili stopped him.
He said, "You're an elder, there's no need to be so polite."
Dr. Ting smiled and said, "You can't skip the formalities. Besides, I'm not an elder."
Even though Vir was awake now, Dr. Ting didn't expect anything to happen between them. He had protected her for 10 years and never expected anything in return.
Life was short. If he missed it, he missed it. Furthermore, he was almost at the age of one foot in the grave. People would believe him if he said that he was her grandfather. How could he add to her troubles?
Xu Sili shook his head. "The House of Roland is indebted to you. What's wrong with being my elder?"
He had thought of calling Dr. Ting grandpa to get closer to him, but this was probably because Dr. Ting was upset, so he still called him by his original title.
"Okay, I'm here today to send you your assistants."
As he spoke, he took out the Lie Xing Base card and released his spiritual power. He waved his hand and a dozen researchers appeared in the hall. They looked around blankly.
They were the people who had been kidnapped by the Fox and chose to stay after they were rescued.
Xu Sili didn't care if they were sincere or not. They had to work here anyway. After they were turned into cards, he could recall them back into the card at any time.
Dr. Ting was also stunned. He had always believed in science. After coming to Roland, no, after meeting the little king, he had seen countless magical things that had changed his worldview.
Magical civilization …
It was beautiful and desirable. Unfortunately, he wasn't born in Roland and couldn't learn these magical spells.
"Doctor, I'll leave these people to you. Don't say that I lied to you to become the director of the research institute when I don't have a single soldier," Xu Sili said.
Dr. Ding smiled bitterly and nodded in the end.
Although he didn't have an assistant, Roland's environment made him feel more relaxed than ever. He liked it here and he liked talking to Xiao Wu.
Xu Sili said a few words to the researchers and prepared to leave.
Before he left, Si Sheng suddenly looked at Dr. Ting and asked, "Are you practicing meditation?"
Dr. Ting was slightly stunned. He didn't expect the cold-faced Marshal to talk to him. He quickly nodded.
"Yes, I'm very interested in meditation. I tried to learn it. I feel like my mind has cleared up a lot."
He had been interested in Vir's magical abilities since he was young. Now that he was in her hometown, he naturally wanted to study these spells.
Since the meditation technique and the Body Tempering Technique were open to the public, after he asked Little Five, the little guy directly sent it to his mailbox.
Si Sheng nodded but didn't say much. He only said, "You can keep going."
Then, he left with Xu Sili.
Xu Sili heard the entire conversation. He was suspicious. When he was pulled away, he turned his head and cast Inspect on Dr. Ting.
Then, he found that Dr. Ting's stats had changed!
[Ding Mingyu]
Identity: NPC
Level: Lv5
Health Points: 7000/7000
Magic Points: 100/100
Elemental Affinity: Earth
Class Preference: Spirit Elementalist
Holy shit! What's going on? Dr. Ting has an Elementalist Talent!
Xu Sili was so shocked that he only came back to his senses when Si Sheng took him away. He asked, "Brother Sheng, how did you know that Dr. Ting has awakened an Innate Talent?"
"I felt the fluctuation of Elemental Energy," Si Sheng explained patiently.
Xu Sili knew the reason, but he still didn't understand. "Why does Dr. Ting have an Elementalist Talent?"
"Maybe he has Roland blood," Si Sheng said.
Xu Sili tilted his head and thought for a while. It seemed to be the only possibility.
After all, the players' Innate Talent would be erased when they changed factions. Old Huo and the others were also restricted by their level even on other planets. It was impossible for a pure-blooded alien to awaken an Elemental Talent just by learning a few meditation techniques, right?
Dr. Ting actually had Exian blood … It seemed that at least one of his parents was an Elementalist!
Xu Sili was happy.
He turned on his communication device and asked Xiao Wu to play "Germinal" on loop in the research institute every day.
When he was free in the future, he would play the flute twice for the old man to improve his Elemental Affinity.
As long as Dr. Ting's level increased to one star, his lifespan would be extended! Although one star didn't extend his lifespan by much, there was still hope.
Luckily, Si Sheng was careful enough!
After Xu Sili finished talking to Xiao Wu, he turned around and kissed Si Sheng hard on the cheek.
Sensing his joy, Si Sheng's lips also curled up.
Under such a happy atmosphere, the two of them went to the Elementalist College together and started to set up the illusion cards.
When Xu Sili took out Lilith's card, the girl in the card opened her eyes blankly.
"Lilith, I told you before about starting a class. Have you thought about it?"
Xu Sili said, "I've already made the necessary preparations for you. You just have to nod and shake your head."
He had suggested it to the girl before, but Lilith didn't think it would work. Now, he could finally tell her that it would work!
Lilith looked at him. Her body was imprisoned in the card, so she couldn't speak or make any big movements. She hadn't come into contact with other life forms for many days, so her face became numb again.
In the end, she nodded her head stiffly.
Xu Sili looked at her pitiful appearance and quickly got to work.
Dean Justin had already followed his instructions and selected the children who met the requirements. There were a total of 14 children and a young teacher.
This teacher would be responsible for organizing the basic knowledge taught by Lilith.
This way, the children would have teaching materials to review in the future. The children who came later could also prepare before entering the illusion. After all, a lot of the basic knowledge of card masters needed to be memorized.
The illusion cards were arranged in an empty room deep in the Elementalist College.
Formation Master Dominic had already arrived and was drawing an array in the center of the room.
Dominic was one of the five teachers that Xu Sili had brought back from outer space. He had not expected him to be an array master. After his return, he naturally became an array master.
Su Lin followed him and learned from him, becoming his first disciple.
The array that Dominic was drawing now was a small protective array less than half a meter in diameter.
Once the array was activated, it could hide the things in the array and prevent outsiders. If someone tried to force their way in, it would trigger the alarm.
This was also a protective measure for Lilith.
It was just a small array, so Dominic quickly finished setting it up. Then, he embedded a galactic beast core.
After returning, he did a lot of experiments with Xu Sili's inspiration and found that the galactic beast core could perfectly replace the original energy stone.
Now that the Imperial City had leveled up to Level 4, his strength had also returned to Four-Star. He could gradually draw some of the more difficult arrays. He was worried about not having enough energy stones, but then he found that he didn't have to worry at all.
Roland was in a difficult situation, but there seemed to be some dusty treasures waiting to be discovered.
The array lit up with a faint light beam. Si Sheng put the two combined cards into it. Soon, the cards were wrapped in the light beam and disappeared in front of everyone's eyes.
The people who were within five meters of the light beam, Dominic and Dean Justin, only saw a flash before their eyes and the scene in front of them changed.
A girl with blue hair and blue eyes appeared in front of them. She also had a look of surprise on her face.
"Lilith, this is Teacher Dominic and Dean Justin."
Xu Sili gave them a brief introduction and then went straight to the point. He told her that there would be 15 students coming to learn from her.
"So many?"
Lilith's eyes widened. If more people came to learn, her mission would be more complete. But …
She looked at her study room and was a little worried.
"It can't fit so many people …"
Xu Sili smiled gently. "You don't have to worry about that."
Then, he looked at Si Sheng.
Si Sheng nodded. He didn't do anything, but the study room changed.
It was originally an independent study room, but a door appeared between the two rows of large bookshelves.
Through the open door, one could see that the inside had been transformed into a classroom similar to that of an Elementalist College. All the teaching facilities were fully equipped.
Lilith looked at the scene in front of her and couldn't help but marvel at Si Sheng's power. But soon, she was attracted by something else …
"This smell …"
She sniffed the air and followed the smell to another door that appeared in the study room. Under Xu Sili's encouraging gaze, she pushed open the door.
It was … a small kitchen!
The kitchen was fully equipped with kitchenware. There was a large refrigerator and a glass cabinet filled with cakes and desserts. There were also some glasses that seemed to be drinks with straws in them.
The girl couldn't help but gulp. She turned to look at Xu Sili and asked, "This … this is?"
Xu Sili smiled slightly. "A reward for teaching so many students. Do you like it?"
Lilith wanted to say that she didn't need the reward, but she couldn't bring herself to reject such a small kitchen.
The girl's face lit up. She nodded seriously. "Thank you. I'll teach them with all my heart!"
Xu Sili didn't doubt Lilith's intentions at all. After that, Dean Justin brought in a dozen children, and he shamelessly stayed behind to listen to the class.
He was very curious about the power of cards ever since Little Majesty started talking about it.
Xu Sili didn't care about him. Since the illusion card had been set up, he also sent out the introductory mission for card masters.
Players who had reached level 30 could accept the mission of changing their profession to a card master.
The requirements for changing the profession were: Respect in the Roland faction, have 4 World Order, complete faction mission x1, build a building x1, submit 50 one-star or 25 two-star beast cores …
In short, the requirements for changing the profession were harsh.
But compared to the timeline of the Future Forum, where there wasn't even a shadow of a card master for ten years, this requirement was just a little more time and effort.
Xu Sili sent out the mission with no qualms. The matter here was over, so he returned to the palace with Si Sheng.
At this time, the sky was already dark.
Therefore, the interrogation of the elven player was postponed to the next day.
What Xu Sili didn't expect was that this elven player was indeed a player, but he wasn't a mermaid as he thought. He was a wood elf on land!
Moreover, his target wasn't Xiao Haige, but … Ah Sheng?
