"What is 'hello' trying to say? If I'm not mistaken, this is my office. ”

Closing the swing door behind him, Lin Yun frowned and looked at the goblin doll behind the desk: "Trespassing on someone else's territory, should you prove to me that you are not hostile first?" ”

"Don't be impulsive, afterlife. You don't have to waste what little magic you have left on this weak puppet, we have a lot of convergence of interests, and we can sit down and talk. ”

The expression on the elf doll's face is very vivid, combined with the slow tone and lazy expression, giving people a subtle sense of relaxation: "Although it is a bit sudden to say this now, I have come here with good intentions. ”

"Goodwill?"

Lin Yun did not let go of the heart gem in his hand because of the other party's words: "I think the premise of kindness is to be open and honest with each other, not to hide behind a doll." ”

He can be sure that the puppet doll in front of him is not the other person's body, and although he is talking to the doll, there is someone else who is really communicating with him.

"I couldn't agree more. But before you continue to show hostility to me, can we explore another possibility: You actually know me? ”

The doll leaned lazily back in the office chair: "We met, Housheng." And I'm sure there's no reason for you to forget who I am. ”

When she said this, she deliberately lengthened the title of "posterity", obviously to emphasize that this word is an important piece of information to judge her identity. This undoubtedly also reminded Lin Yun that he quickly locked on to his target after a short period of thought, after all, in his memory, not many people would use such a title for themselves.

Combined with the appearance and characteristics of the doll in front of him, as well as its actions, the identity of the person hiding behind the doll is also about to be revealed:

“…… Your Excellency, Chief? Why are you here? ”

The so-called "chief" is the title of one of the jewel scepters of the Magic Realm, the emerald scepter in charge of the research institute, and the position of emerald.

In the magic country, there was an ancient saying, which can be said after being translated into the language of Donghua Prefecture: It is better to be a research dog than a day of investigation.

This sentence is more transparent, and the meaning is: a magical girl would rather work as a hard labor in the research institute until she retires, rather than go to the investigation institute to work as a day shift.

The origin of the old saying is no longer known, and no one knows who the original author of this sentence is, and whether it has been secretly arrested by the dean of the Investigation Academy, who has never liked to be disliked. But it was able to be passed down in the end, and even spread, which is enough to show that this is the consensus of a considerable number of magical girls.

Among the five major powers in the Wizarding Realm, if you want to ask which one is the most powerful, then most magical girls will hesitate between the Treasury and the Investigation Agency. But if you want to ask which one is the best pay and the most comfortable and comfortable work, everyone will choose the graduate school.

You must know that in terms of the level of leisure and paddling of work, there is still a power vacuum like the Demon Courtyard in the five major courtyards. The magical girls who work in the magic house are all leisurely, and every day you can see girls holding teapots and thermos cups and desserts to get together for a tea party. I don't know and think that this is the back garden of the noble lady, not an important authority of the country.

To be able to compete directly with such a magic academy, and to win the battle in the end, to obtain the throne of "the most comfortable work", everything is related to the director of the academy, Emerald.

Emerald, the president and chief researcher of the research institute, the chief consultant of the Wang Ting Research Institute, the chief designer of the garden project, the old flower name code is no longer available. Like the director of the Inquisitor, no one knows exactly when emeralds began to be emerald scepters. There are magical girls behind the age of the two black farts, put them together, and call them "Yellow and Green Elders".

Unlike the golden green cat's eye, which has always been low-key and introverted, the image of emerald is much clearer and more well-known in the magical country. It's just because she likes to show her head very much, and often makes some shocking remarks that are difficult to answer.

The most famous example is that it is said that decades ago, the Queen's birthday party was also the inauguration ceremony of the ruby scepter, pigeon's blood red. When the queen spent a lot of money to create an open-air banquet scene in the garden, and asked the emerald how she felt on her birthday, the emerald's answer was this:

"Honestly, Your Majesty. In an open-air flat venue with no throne or staircase in the center, guests may not be able to see objects that are too short. ”

On the night of the banquet that day, it is said that all the guest seats were placed in front of the small cakes personally selected by the Queen, and an empty plate was placed on the emerald seat.

In addition to this astonishing speech, another story of emerald that she is talking about is the proposition she promotes in the Institute. As the head of the first hospital, one of her most common words is:

"Laziness is the ladder of research progress".

Not only does she not care about being lazy, but she also doesn't rectify the laziness of researchers, and even takes the lead in laziness herself, and it is common to sleep around with a pillow during office hours.

In her words, being lazy is for better inspiration, and the desire to be lazy leads to more research and invention.

It's hard to argue with the fact that she did.

Under such a high intensity of sleep and paddling, Emerald still maintains the first speed of invention and creation in the country, whether it is a magic-driven device or a complex magic method, she is the first person in the field of related research.

Because of this, even if he is shrouded in layers of aura, he has countless academic achievements and honorary titles. But the emerald likes to pose the identity of the head of the research institute the most, so most people's honorific title for emerald is not "dean", but "chief".

At this time, the puppet doll in front of Lin Yun obviously used quite superb and advanced magic drive technology. It highly mimics the appearance of a pure-blood elf, to the point of ignoring the mechanical parts of its exterior and making it look like a real elf.

Being able to use such a technique and possessing very powerful magic power, coupled with the title of "afterlife" on his lips. In Lin Yun's cognition, there is only one person, emerald.

This answer was affirmed by the other party.

"Correct speculation, but it's not that I want to be here, it's that you need me to be here, the afterlife."

The fairy doll shook its head, and its completely unrecognizable neck shape was even a little funny: "Of course, as a provider of materials and equipment, I always have to come and see what kind of condition the products I provide." ”

"Product?" Lin Yun asked rhetorically.

"yes, product."

The doll said slowly, "The magic weapon you asked for from the Inquisitor; and the camouflage surveillance you're putting in here; Even the treatment of the child named Chaoyan is the result of the invention of our research institute. Otherwise, who can you count on? Can that old woman with her head soaked in tea polyphenols make these things for you? ”

"I hope you don't forget that you're talking to the inspectors of the Inquisitor."

Lin Yun reminded, "The dean may have some opinions about the way you address her. ”

"Nobody cares about the opinion of a man who can't even remember how old he lived and who spends his days plotting and playing ball. I sincerely hope that the normal life limit of mammals can act on her, so that she will not become an old witch with endocrine disorders due to the lack of her emotional life for many years. ”

The doll's flat tone revealed a hint of disgust, and he half-squinted his eyes and said, "Putting aside this obscure topic, how do you feel about the products provided by our research institute now?" ”

"Magical weapons still need more usage data."

Lin Yun replied blandly, not seeing any preferences: "But the special monitoring system has indeed played some roles, both in concealment and ease of use." ”

"Hmm...... Can it be understood as 'satisfied'? ”

"Yes." Lin Yun remained silent.

"Well, let's talk openly and honestly."

Holding on to the armrest of the chair, the doll struggled to straighten up like a plush ball: "Do you need some value-added services?" ”

“…… Value-added services? ”

Lin Yun raised his eyebrows: "What do you mean?" ”

"Literally."

The doll stretched out its short paws, presumably trying to convey the body language of "supply": "I can offer more products, and they are all useful to you, would you like to learn more?" ”

"You want to establish another level of trading relationship with me outside of the Investigative Institute?"

Lin Yun thought for a moment, and directly picked out the other party's intention: "Why?" And I don't feel like I'm going to be able to pay for it. ”

"Of course you can pay, I only have one thing I want."

The doll moved forward slightly, and its emerald green eyes looked a little deep: "The Ember Servant 'Moss' of the Ember Dawn of the Black Ember, the 'Source of the Beast' left behind after her death, is there for you, right?" ”

"The source of the beast?"

This unfamiliar term made Lin Yun slightly stunned, but he soon realized what the other party was talking about - it was a purple-black spar that Mousse used to cultivate remnant beasts and was said to be able to mutate them.

Emerald was right, the spar was actually in his hand now.

Knowing that this thing is one of the banes of artificially created remnants, Delphinium has been using magic to seal it in an empty room in the secret base, and has also made Moko keep an eye on the status of the hedron. And since it fell into the hands of the magical girl, this spar has behaved very stable, if it weren't for the faint magic fluctuations in it, it would even make people think that it was a pure dead thing.

"I can't trade anything like this, Your Excellency."

Lin Yun narrowed his eyes a little vigilantly: "Especially if you don't know what you will do with it." ”

The murder that Mousse used this hedron to create was horrifying, and many people lost their lives to her brutal "research". And now, the director of the research institute is trying to trade this thing with him, so he has to have some bad associations.

He doesn't have a weak sense of identity with the group of magical girls, and he also believes that most of the magical girls in this world have good hearts. But for the gem scepter, which has stayed at the top of power for too long, and has long had a gap with ordinary magical girls, he has to be a little vigilant.

If the other party's camp belonging to the magical girl decisively handed over the hedron just because the other party had his back to the kingdom, he could not guarantee that the hedron would be used for some evil purposes.

“…… It seems that you don't know who I am, and it makes me feel a little sad. ”

The doll clearly conveyed the emerald's words, but the unfluctuating tone did not hear the "sad" component at all: "But it doesn't matter, you are the one who obtained the source of the beast, and the decision on whether to trade it or not is only in your hands." Hear what I can do for you, and maybe you'll change your mind. ”

"Please." Lin Yun relaxed slightly from the tense state.

"Well, that'...... Where do you start, and where do I put my memo? ”

As Lin Yun gave a positive attitude, the sound of rummaging things came out of the doll's mouth, and after a while, the emerald voice came out again: "Ah, by the way, the most important thing for you is probably your current situation, right?" ”

"Even if I don't talk much here, you should be able to feel that the gem of your heart is already on the verge of being completely shattered."

"The magic is constantly overflowing, and the nature is extremely unstable, and even at this distance I can feel its overwhelm."

"Even if you release your magic power with all your strength now, how much combat power do you still have? Leaf level? Bud level? If you continue like this, your strength will only get weaker and weaker, until one day you will drop to the trough of the seed level, right? ”

Emerald's words can be described as one sentence.

The magic costume is shattered, and the price of damage to the true phase is destined to be high. In addition to the fact that the Heart Gem would always fail, making Lin Yun himself unable to control his transformation, a downgrade in strength was inevitable.

If it is said that before the battle with Mousse, the full strength of the delphinium in the normal state is probably at the bud level; So now, even if she used all her strength, she couldn't touch the magic power of the Lei level.

Coupled with the fact that the form of the magic costume is gone to two, the complete magic costume of "Weaving Life" can now be said to be only one-third of the part, like a leaky wall, and it is naturally difficult to play its due function again. Today's delphinch, if you want to single out a chrysalis remnant beast, I'm afraid it's enough to choke.

"And because of the overflow of magic, the boundary between your own appearance and your body is gradually being broken, and the magic of being a magical girl is beginning to pour into your current body in reverse. You should also realize this.,Now you're able to use some magical girl power without moving.。 ”

“…… Yes. Lin Yun nodded slightly.

"That's right, maybe in the short term, this state is fine, and it can even make it easier for you to use power; But in the long run, it is only harmful, and the male body is not compatible with and uses the magic of magical girls, which will eventually shorten the lifespan of your body. ”

The doll tapped the table lightly twice, raised its head, and had a look of affirmation on its funny face:

"If you get to that point, let alone use power, even your life will be gone."
