Chapter 256: The Fourteenth Member
PS: Thank you 'Lloyd' and 'fishdogcofei' for voting for your valuable monthly pass!
For the Demon Research Society, Lin Shu's attitude now is to check his words and observe his deeds, neither setting the Demon Research Society as an evil game master, nor can he regard the Demon Research Society as the savior of mankind, a selfless academic organization and arbiter.
The next day, Lin Shu said goodbye to Colonel Kane, who was 'reluctant', and Du Yuheng, who was a little sluggish, and set foot on the way home, yes, there are his relatives there, which is home.
The flight across the sea was at a higher flight altitude, using the atmospheric circulation there, the speed was amazingly fast, and it only took three days to reach such a long distance from the Central Continent to the Eastern Continent, which made Lin Shu feel very surprised, but after learning of Lin Shu's surprise, Lao Wang scoffed, thinking that when Lin Shu came over in the teleportation array, it was just a blink of an eye.
When they arrived in the East Continent, they needed to change to an airship in the hub city of Caiyungang on the west coast, because this kind of airship was not suitable for flying at low altitudes.
From Lao Wang's mouth, I learned that Caiyungang is the territory of Wentianzong, one of the founders of the Demon Research Society, and it is also the location of the East Continent Branch, an important stronghold of the Demon Research Association, and the Demon Research Association is also warmly invited, hoping that Lin Shu can come as a guest.
Lin Shu naturally wouldn't turn down this opportunity to learn more about the Demon Research Society, and moreover, he really wanted to see what this huge organization that controlled the entire world world was like.
The architectural style of Caiyungang is different from that of the Tang Dynasty, Caiyungang is in the west of the Han Kingdom, and the architecture advocates simplicity and practicality. The surface of the building is generally plain. Either it's black. Either it is gray, it looks heavy and thick, giving people a very down-to-earth feeling, just like the Han people, low-key and calm.
The only thing in the city that is the same as the rest is the magic tower, this kind of magic energy absorbing device, everywhere seems to look the same, which shows that this magic energy absorbing technique is actually the same. According to Lao Wang, this technique was first developed by Wentianzong back then, but this statement is disputed in the history books.
The area of Caiyungang will not be smaller than Chang'an, therefore, the traffic in the city still depends on airships, seeing the airships in the sky, Lin Shu suddenly felt that it was really a wise decision for him to pull Du Yuheng into the door, this guy's technical patent is going to make a lot of money!
The Eastern Continent Branch of the Magic Research Society is composed of a group of magic towers, and it is the tallest group of magic towers in the city. The tallest of them is nearly 500 meters high, making it the first in the Eastern Continent.
Look at this huge structure, which is estimated to cover several square kilometers. Lin Shu was in awe in his heart, and even Nasha had to admit that humans were really powerful.
The airship that received the forest tree flew directly towards the largest magic tower, and the last stopped at the top of the mooring, and the forest tree ran to the edge of the magic tower excitedly, which was protected by a huge windproof barrier, and standing here could take a panoramic view of the entire Caiyun Harbor.
"It's so beautiful!Nasha, although human beings have all kinds of problems, but you have to admit that human beings are really a great race, what do you say?"
"Hmm. Nasha held back for a long time, and hummed an answer in a nasal voice, although reluctantly, Lin Shu could understand Nasha's complicated feelings.
I like this place the most, you see, there are a lot of people around who like it. ”
Sure enough, there were quite a few people wearing the logo of the Demon Research Society, or people dressed in dignitaries, drinking drinks and enjoying the magnificent scenery from the surrounding viewing seats.
Lin Shu and Nasha were both dressed in ordinary hunting clothes, and they didn't seem to have any decent equipment, coupled with their surprised expressions and sighs, the dignitaries around them all tacitly sent contemptuous looks.
Lao Wang smiled: "Wear the badge, otherwise you won't be able to enter for a while!"
"Cut, don't you just want to see the surprised expressions of those people, boring!"
After looking at the scenery for a while, under the leadership of Lao Wang, they entered the magic tower from the entrance of the viewing platform, and Lao Wang took the two of them into the elevator familiarly, and then stopped on the ninety-ninth floor, took the two of them for a long time, and entered a fairly spacious room.
"This is the No. 1 meeting room, Professor Xiang Zhitian, the executive chairman of one of the meetings of the chairman of the Demon Research Society, will meet you here, Miss Nasha, if you don't mind, let me show you around the Demon Research Society, okay?"
Nasha subconsciously looked at Lin Shu, Lin Shu nodded slightly, and Nasha said, "Okay." ”
Watching the two leave, Lin Shu poured himself a glass of water, paced to the window and looked down at the huge city, no matter how you look at it, you will feel beautiful and magnificent.
"Magnificent, huh?"
A voice sounded abruptly behind Lin Shu, Lin Shu turned around and looked at this old man who was not tall and had slightly gray hair, his age really couldn't be seen, although his hair was gray, his skin was very firm, his eyes looked gentle, but they were extremely profound, this person was a ninth-order, right?
The orderly activity of mankind is a magnificent thing in itself. ”
"Hehe, that's a good point!Xuanmen disciple, Lin Shu?"
"Yes, you're Professor Xiang Zhitian?"
"Yes, I am an old friend of your teacher Li Jinglong, and I admire his character and talent, is he also a member of the Xuanmen?"
"Sort of!"
"Hehe, so you're still digging into the corners of our Demon Research Society!"
"Don't dare, I saw that the teacher couldn't break through the bottleneck for a long time, so I taught it with secret techniques, hoping that the teacher could prolong his life, so it can only be regarded as. ”
"The secret technique of the Xuanmen is very magical, I am very curious. ”
"What's this, compared to the secret technique of the Heavenly Sect, maybe it's still far behind!"
"Then we can talk more!"
"That's what I mean. ”
Xiang Zhitian carefully looked at Lin Shu for a while, and saw that Lin Shu was neither arrogant nor humble, he was indeed the only young man who could behave so calmly in front of him, and he couldn't help but have a good impression of Lin Shu.
"Lao Wang has told us about your situation, and we welcome Xuanmen's willingness to join the Demon Research Society. Humanity wants to keep moving forward. There must be constant new blood to join. We still have this awareness, Lin Shu, you don't have to worry about it at all, I don't dare to say that the Demon Research Society must be fair and just, but at least it is not a dark place, hehe. ”
"You're laughing at it, the Demon Research Society is in the public eye, but it is beyond the world. ”
"Hehe, sit down. I know what you mean, the Demon Research Association can't sleep in the open, to maintain its own development, to safeguard the interests of its members, to stabilize the harmonious development of the entire world, but also to block the invasion of foreign enemies, this all requires real resources and capital, I hope you can understand. ”
"Of course, I fully understand that if it is really desireless. Maybe it'll be like my teacher, so I changed my mind and decided to join the Demon Research Society. ”
"Good. I hope that Genmon will be able to contribute more to the Demon Research Society, and of course, it will also achieve the corresponding status, and I am looking forward to Genmon becoming the 14th Executive Chairman of the Joint Chairman's Council in the future. ”
Lin Shu's eyes shrank slightly, and the effect of saying this from Xiang Zhitian's mouth was absolutely different from what Lao Wang said, which showed that Xiang Zhitian really valued Xuanmen very much, and at the same time, he may also be very jealous of Xuanmen, and Lin Shu naturally couldn't know the idea immediately.
But Lin Shu has actually been in a state of reflection, and he wants to know if he was lying when he talked to him to Zhitian.
Xiang Zhitian's eyes looked at the forest trees gently, and his eyes were clear.
"Thank you for your attention, I think our Xuanmen will work hard to contribute our strength to the Demon Research Society, and also to the entire Green Star Human Race. ”
"That's great, I'll be looking forward to Gento's performance, and yours. ”
"By the way, I heard Lao Wang say, you are the chief of the Heavenly Sect, what kind of position is that? Is it the sect master?"
"Of course not, hehe, the Wentian Sect advocates competition and innovation, and the so-called chief refers to the person who has obtained the most abundant technical achievements, that is, the person with the most creative ability, and this person will participate in the meeting of the chairman of the Demon Research Council as the representative of the Wentian Sect. ”
"Oh, I see, no wonder Lao Wang called you a professor!"
"In fact, a cultivator should first be a scholar, which is the common value of our Heavenly Sect. ”
Lin Shu nodded vigorously: "I agree! If you don't have the heart to seek knowledge, you are definitely not a qualified cultivator." ”
"You see, we soon had a common language. ”
"That's for sure, I think you already know the Dao, the purpose of our Xuanmen is to pursue the ultimate unknown, and the purpose of this Demon Research Society coincides, which is the biggest foundation for my Xuanmen to join the Demon Research Society. ”
Next, the two exchanged some views on many major issues, Xiang Zhitian was very satisfied with Lin Shu and Xuanmen's attitude, as Lin Shu himself said, Xuanmen basically has no worldly demands, just wants to be able to continue and develop smoothly, which the Demon Research Association will definitely support.
As he spoke, Lin Shu talked about Nasha's origin.
"Do the Nyas really have any secret pact with us?"
"Well, there is, but I can't say what it is, maybe one day you'll be qualified to know these secrets. ”
Lin Shu smiled uncomfortably: "Maybe." ”
"Alright, here for today, I'm glad to meet you, the youngest member of the Demon Research Society, and look forward to your best performances. ”
"Xie Lu Xie, I think so, then I will leave today, and I am also very happy to meet you, an erudite scholar, the chief master of the Heavenly Sect. ”
"Ha Lu, okay, let's go visit the Demon Research Society, don't be in a hurry, do you want to come here, I personally remind you, the member library of the Demon Research Association is a must-go place." ”
"Yes, thank you very much for the reminder, I just wanted to visit!"
After a while, Lao Wang and Nasha appeared at the door, Lin Shu said goodbye to Xiang Zhitian very politely, and then excitedly asked Lao Wang to take him to visit the Demon Research Society.
Xiang Zhitian soon appeared in a large secret room, and there were already two people in it, and when they saw Xiang Zhitian coming, they nodded together.
"How's it going, what did you find?" (To be continued......)
