The next day.
There was a slightly urgent knock on the door. When Liao Yu opened the door, there was an anxious and nervous Wilsy outside.
"Professor, something happened..."
Liao Yu first asked Wei Erxi to come in and sit down, and then poured a glass of water for the elf.
Then he asked soothingly: "Don't worry, tell me slowly, what happened? Is it about your... ethnic group?"
"It stands to reason that I should receive a reply from the Great Elder early this morning, but, but..."
Wilsey's hand was holding the water glass extremely hard. She was restless and her tone was urgent.
Yesterday, she and Liao Yu exchanged secrets with each other. After the frank meeting, in order to enable the professor to better study the mystery of the "relic of salvation" and master the sealing method as soon as possible, she wrote a letter to the great elder Naxi, hoping to get the clan's secrets. Reinforcements over there.
However.
"Professor, it's already nine o'clock, and I, I still haven't received any news."
Liao Yu: "Is it possible that your great elder is busy with other things? How about we wait and see?"
"No, Professor, you don't understand. As long as our communication skills are opened between each other, we can know even if the other party does not reply, and..."
Wei Erxi hesitated and told Liao Yu another piece of information.
"And Professor, in fact, according to our agreement earlier, the Great Elder should have sent another group of tribesmen to join me, but until now, I have not been able to contact them."
Wilsey pursed her lips.
If the missing clan member before was still a coincidence, then now, even her summons has been silenced, which can only prove one thing.
problem occurs.
There is a high probability that something unexpected happened to the ethnic group.
"I understand, just wait for me and I will go back with you."
Something happened at home.
The first thing that comes to mind is definitely going back.
Seeing Professor Liao Yu's unhesitating look, as if it was not the home of their elves but also the home of the professor, Wilsey felt a warmth in her heart, and even her panic calmed down a little.
but.
Wei Erxi quickly shook her head and stopped Liao Yu.
"No, professor, in the event of an unexpected situation like this, Elder Naqian has taught me not to go back. It will cause the tribes with Elder Naqian to lose contact. I...even if we go back, we will not be able to go back." It’s of no use, it’s just throwing yourself into a trap.”
Wei Erxi's decision surprised Liao Yu.
His original plan was to follow the panicked Wilsey to "investigate" the elves.
Let this young princess discover the fact that the elves "disappeared" overnight.
Liao Yu also left some clues.
For example, the buds of the World Tree, the breath fragments of the elf, etc...
In this way, Wilsey should be able to feel a little more at ease, thinking that the elves may not necessarily encounter unexpected events, but may also have new opportunities and changes.
In this way, it is completely completed, and the temporary separation between Velxi and the elves is completed.
He was the only "one of our own" left around Wilsey.
At the same time, it can also divert Wilsey's attention and change the Elf Princess's "main mission" from sealing the demon clan to searching for the missing clan.
This is the solution that Liao Yu can think of at the moment that will cause the least harm to both parties.
But now it looks like...
"Professor, the situation shouldn't be that bad. Look at this." Wei Erxi comforted Liao Yu in turn.
She said and took out a piece of jade jade.
"This is the great elder's life stone. The life stone has not cracked yet. This proves that at least the great elder's life is not in danger and he is in a safe situation."
Liao Yu would naturally be happy to see Wei Erxi stabilize herself first.
As for how to guide the next elf princess, he also has an alternative plan.
"It's good news, but we can't just sit there like this."
"Sealing the demons is the second priority now, and clarifying the situation of the elves is the primary goal. You said before that a group of your own clan should have come to join you in the royal city, but there was no news and they disappeared, right? Since we are in In the royal city, why not start the investigation from here."
Following this path, Liao Yu can naturally lead the Five Flowers Alliance out.
Although he was a little cruel to Wilsey.
But Liao Yu planned to show the elven corpses tortured by Ariel, the perverted noble lady, to Velxi later.
The more pure and innocent the white paper is.
Once it is stained with ink, it will turn black faster than others.
but.
What surprised Liao Yu again was...
"Yes, that's right, Professor, I have to do something. Investigate from the Royal City... With Professor! I may try to contact the Princess of the Royal City. That Princess Yuffie should be able to help us!"
Liao Yu: "...?"
"You mean...Princess Yuffie? The eldest princess?"
"Yes, ah! Such a professor. Previously, at the invitation of my tutor, I participated in a fund-raising party held by the Five Flowers Alliance. It was at that dinner that I met Princess Yuffie. The eldest princess was recently revising the article Regarding the college’s out-of-town enrollment policy, they even invited me to come and want to hear my opinion.”
Wei Erxi's disguised identity is that of a transfer student with excellent academic performance, which is equivalent to a grassroots visit. It seems reasonable and nothing special.
But Liao Yu doesn't think so.
He believes that behind many "accidents" there must be necessity.
According to the hypothetical principle.
If the eldest princess discovered Wei Erxi's identity, or realized that Wei Erxi was different, she deliberately approached her.
The key evidence to maintain this logical chain is...
Wilsey, where did the secret come out?
The answer to this question was quickly solved by Liao Yu as the elf took out several bottles of high-level healing medicine from the backpack she brought.
Wilsey bought this last night because she was worried that Liao Yu might still be injured from the previous battle.
But Liao Yu's focus was entirely on these medicines.
"Is this from...Lanqi Props Shop?"
"Um."
"These potions are not cheap, Wilsie, where did you get so much money?"
In fact, when Liao Yu asked this question, he already had a guess in his heart.
auctions!
That third-level "Lifting Technique" scroll!
He should have thought of it earlier!
At the current level of human beings, there is no need for a magician who can make a third-level magic scroll to be auctioned. Only high-level magicians from other places who have just arrived are relatively stupid and will choose to go to the auction. .
Wilsey's hesitating expression said it all.
In this way, Liao Yu was able to almost restore the incident.
This elf princess, who had no social experience at all, was immediately targeted after giving the third-level scroll to Lan Qi's prop shop. The person behind Lan Qi's prop shop was probably the eldest princess.
As a civilian top student, Wilsey was able to participate in the Wuhua Alliance's upper-level fund-raising meeting, and it must be the operation of the eldest princess behind it.
Ah.
It seems that he is not the only one who is eyeing Wei Erxi.
only...
What is the purpose of this great princess? If you just want to win over Wilsey, why do you still want to get involved with the Five Flowers Alliance?
After sorting out this relationship, Liao Yu was not in a hurry.
If his previous speculation was correct, then the information that Wilxi went to buy healing medicine for herself late at night must have been delivered to the eldest princess by Lanqi Props Shop.
Liao Yu just imagine, if he were that Princess Yuffie, he should be...
Boom.
Boom boom.
At this moment, there was another knock on the door from outside the office door.
Wait for Wilsey to go over and open it.
The elf's exclamation came.
"Yu...Yuffie-sama!?"
