The moment he saw Torquifat, Russell knew why the other elven directors couldn't recognize him.

Because he's so weird.

The overwhelming specificity of Tokifate diluted all the "smells" on his body.

It's like a spy who tries to imitate a normal person will always reveal his true identity in some details. But if he becomes a well-known fanatic, a weirdo that everyone avoids, he may hide his sense of incongruity.

This is also known as deception.

From the very beginning, it was all about Torkifate's design.

First of all, Russell was allowed to enter the brain-shaped heavy factory integration of "Shenzhi Heavy Industry", and specially took him through various production workshops and R&D workshops...... Let him walk among the labyrinth-like walls that open and close, distracting him and occupying his space for thought.

By the time Russell first began to feel a little tired and bored, he happened to be here.

The surroundings went from noisy to extremely quiet in an instant. It's like playing a horror game, and the melodious BGM stops at some point.

That feeling of momentary silence is creepy and instantaneous.

Walking alone through the long, dimly lit corridor, at the end of the room I saw a strange scene that looked like a mirror and a movie watching alone...... Suddenly seeing the complex prosthetic transformation of Tokmy Fat, which can no longer be regarded as a "human", he will naturally feel an unprecedented impact.

No one would ever wonder if this was the real Tokifate.

If Russell hadn't seen the deer's head before, he would never have doubted his identity.

If anyone is surprised by this, go and investigate further...... Eventually, they will find out that they have been bombarded by an angel during that succession ceremony.

And the current "Tokifat" is one of the victims of that day.

It's all like Tokyiphart's plan...... The more you investigate, the more you go deeper, the more you understand, the more you will be misled and manipulated by Torkifat.

He never repeatedly emphasized his authenticity, nor did he tell people his past stories, but he was just surprising and curious...... In the end, everything depends on the efforts of others to investigate and think, and it depends on the inferences of others in their own hearts.

He only subtly influences the minds of others through design and layout, and then indirectly manipulates the will of others.

Tokifat sits in a wheelchair like a spider weaving a web in silence.

Of course...... Considering he doesn't have legs, that's probably not sitting either.

He was as quiet as a potted plant, and it didn't seem surprising to say that he was "growing" in a wheelchair.

With none of the heirs surviving or intact, it is naturally impossible for Tokifat, who is also a victim, to remain intact.

He lost both legs and an arm...... It may be possible to clone and transplant autologous, but Torkiphat doesn't seem to care about his own body.

This is the only one of all the elven directors that Russell has seen, if not of all the elves, who has undergone a high-intensity prosthetic transformation of himself.

Compared to the others, his reasons for the transformation seemed so plausible that they were a little out of place.

- Because Tokifate really lost these limbs because of the disaster, not for the sake of reinforcing or beautifying the limbs, cutting off the originally healthy limbs and converting them into prosthetic bodies. This may be the meaning of the existence of the original prosthetic.

But unlike the others, Torkiphat's prosthetics have nothing to do with humans at all.

The prosthetic body he himself uses is the style of the Theosophical Heavy Works—the tentacle-like things under him, Russell also recognizes. It was a specially equipped prosthetic body with the model "Medusa Hair", a alien prosthesis that could be twisted, elongated, and shortened at will by means of conscious manipulation.

Its front section can be modified into screwdrivers, scalpels, gastroscopes and other devices, and can also be modified into various interfaces. Some doctors and prosthetists use special slotted prosthetic arms in order to add a "Medusa hair" to the forearm or shoulder. This allows them to no longer have the problem of "hand tremors", and even if the body moves, the prosthetic tentacles will remain stable like a gimbal.

If it weren't for the fact that it wasn't really good-looking and expensive, Russell would have wanted to buy one back then.

After all, this thing is still quite easy to use to assist in loading and unloading prosthetics...... And the biggest advantage is that when he modifies his left arm prosthesis, he no longer has to work hard to transform it with one hand - the "Medusa Hair" on the left arm prosthesis can be bent over, which in turn assists in disassembling and maintaining his left arm.

Although its price is a little cheaper than Russell's arm, it will not be much cheaper. But just one is definitely more expensive than a good brand of floating car.

And Tokifate equipped himself with more than thirty tentacles of different thicknesses, slenderness, and length.

They looked like shimmering silver earthworms, squirming around the waist down. Therefore, it can be judged that it is the latest model with sensors and camera functions. There are also some weapons that are equipped with a shooting class in the front section.

If it were an ordinary person, I am afraid that this scene would be a little scary and weird......

But as a knowledgeable person, Russell's first reaction was the envy of "it's good to be rich, it's so good".

Torkifat's five-legged prosthetic hand like a cyber bodhisattva, Russell is very familiar with this model-

This was the same set he had seen with the mercenary leader on the airship. It was the one who came with a palm cannon and was then sliced with a Russell knife.

It's just that it's at least five versions more advanced than the mercenary leader - the four advanced versions are the latest trial models on the market, and only a few people with connections can get them. And Russell's "Aoi Lily" prosthetic hand is a batch, that is, "not yet mass-produced" to this extent.

And the one that Tokifate used didn't even have relevant information at all.

Looking at its high-tech streamlined feeling, it is estimated that it is either a plasma or a laser, and it is estimated that it is also an electromagnetic cannon again...... I guess it's not so easy to cut the bullet that comes out of it.

…… How to say it.

That is, the elf director usually doesn't show his head much, otherwise this is simply a live advertisement.

The chairman of many companies will not use their own products at all. But Tokiphat is not only useful, he has already piled up materials on his body, and all the places where he can hang his prosthesis have been hung, and he has directly transformed himself into an alien.

From another point of view, it is also a strange shape full of money. With this set on him, he can probably buy thirty buildings in Tian'en District...... Considering that these things are all the latest models, it is estimated that they are updated in real time.

"Sixteen seconds."

Suddenly, the half-cut teenager who gave people a silver-white look suddenly opened his mouth and said softly.

"What?"

Russell didn't react for a moment.

"From the moment you saw me, you looked at me intently for a full sixteen seconds."

The corners of Tokfaat's mouth rose slightly: "So far, you are the longest. ”

"Wouldn't they be surprised when they saw you?"

Russell was not polite, but asked curiously.

The silver boy replied in a kind voice: "When they see me, it is only three seconds at most. You will subconsciously look away from fear and nausea. Later, either out of curiosity or politeness, I will turn my gaze back again......

"You're the only one who, after seeing me, has seen my whole body from top to bottom."

"Probably because I really understand."

"Definitely. After all, it's Sally Ruth's favorite student. ”

"You also have a connection with your mentor?"

"We directors rarely communicate with each other."

Torkifat was not in a hurry to get to the point, but chatted with Russell gently: "But the important information on each island will be collected and analyzed by the staff group as soon as possible before giving it to us."

"So even if there is no contact between the seven islands, we can always be the first to know the news about the other empty islands.

"When you were in graduate school, you worked on your own to improve the three models of the Flower series. I also sent you an invitation at that time...... Do you remember? ”

“…… It's you. ”

Russell suddenly realized.

When he graduated that year, he did receive an invitation to work at Shenzhi Heavy Industries, starting at the engineer level.

But Russell didn't look closely at the specifics...... Because he had already promised his mother to come to Tianen Group to join his uncle. So he politely refused at the time - since he had already made up his mind not to go, careful study would make him more distressed.

However, he didn't expect that the invitation letter signed with the name of the elf shareholder at that time was really sent by the elf shareholder......

Normally, shouldn't this kind of letter be prepared by a subordinate and then signed and stamped by the superior?

There are even times when you don't have to cover the chapter yourself......

Knowing that he had actually been in contact with this "fake Torkifat" before, Russell suddenly had a little affection for him and let down his vigilance.

At that moment, Russell immediately realized-

This "fake Tokifat" is the same type of person as himself.

But fortunately, he knew enough about Tokifate before.

Therefore, in less than a minute of meeting, Russell had already completed the basic copying and copying of his personality.

So Russell immediately adjusted the details of his personality and switched to a psychological form that was more relatable to Torkifat:

Trusting him as a director, identifying with his abilities and talents, not caring so much about his native physical manifestations, not questioning his control over plans and people's hearts, not seeing him as a gloomy and cunning person, not seeing him as a master from above but as a mentor, showing a slight sense of being controlled by him but having his own ideas, showing his own worth and challenging to manipulate, being able to see his essence but not touching his greatest fears......

Like water, it is unpredictable.

Like a shapeshifter on a psychic level, Russell was always able to be friends with anyone.
