Legend of the Elven Investigator

Chapter 57



Longevity City.

In a secret base, the silver-gray security door slowly opened, and Coulson in plain clothes came out from it.

"Good morning, sir."

"I'm going to pour a cup of coffee, or a brown sugar latte, right?" The staff on the workbench had a good impression of this exceptionally kind officer, and offered a cup of coffee to Coulson's hand.The latter nodded with a smile, indicating that there is no need to disturb everyone.

Bowing his head to smell the aroma of coffee, Coulson took a sip and let out a long breath.

"It's still reassuring to be in the base. This world is not peaceful. Even the leader of the gymnasium in EMI was plotted against, and he is still lying unconscious in the observation room. By the way, Kondo, how is your investigation of the black gold bombing case? The superiors are very urgent. If I fail to hand in this report, I will inevitably be scolded again." Coulson walked into an office, and saw monitors hanging everywhere in the confined space, playing back some collected video recordings.

Hearing Coulson's urging, a man with a hedgehog head and glasses rotated his engineering chair, facing his old boss, swaying a stack of report papers, and said with a relaxed expression: "Head, I have news from my side. According to the news from our informant, Donggang, the owner of the Black Gold Gym, has re-excavated the collapsed layer of the Black Gold Coal Mine and found the place where the explosion occurred."

Kondo was planning to make a fool of himself, but Coulson's half-smile expression made him lose his mind.Although my old boss is recognized as having a good temper, good temper does not mean that he has no temper. "It is like this. The experts of the alliance discovered a special explosive at the detonation point. Its energy density is very high. The culprit that caused the black gold explosion may be just a small thing the size of a fist. This means that the target we are investigating has a potentially high level of technology, which is very tricky."

Coulson shook the coffee cup to make it mix more evenly, and he didn't seem surprised, "So, the background of the culprit may have a lot of background? Are there other circumstances, don't let go of any detail. What we see may not be the truth."

Kondo added: "Head, in addition, the intelligence also shows that there are some special radiation reactions besides the carbon deposit near the detonation point. There should be some special minerals that used to exist nearby, but now there are only residual traces of radiation, and the source of radiation has disappeared."

"Oh? Radiation source? Is it radioactive material? It seems that what the bombing wanted to cover up may be the missing special mineral." Coulson's eyes flickered, as if he had made up his mind.

"Then who would need this strictly controlled mineral? Could it be..." Coulson expanded the scope of his doubts, and several technology companies with deep roots in the Sinnoh region entered his field of vision.Ordinary thieves don't have the means to use this kind of radiation ore, let alone use explosions to cover up the traces.Just, who would it be?

"There is also the clue of the weird guy with the G pattern, but I can't go on. It seems that the water in it is still too deep."

After ruling out one by one for a long time, Coulson didn't have a clue.After all, there is still too little information, and it is too whimsical to catch the target based on guesswork.Coulson drank the coffee and sent the coffee cup back to the front desk. "Since we have the directions, let's check them one by one. If you do it, you will definitely leave a mark. By the way, that kid Shinpei is in EMI. This guy should have won his second badge. It just so happens that Baidai City has a goal, so we can't let him idle."

……

After completing the Gym Challenge, Shinpei handed over the elves on his body to Ms. Joy for free healing services, and the two decided to take a good tour of this beautiful city full of forest atmosphere.

According to the results selected by Sinnoh Times, EMI City has always been among the top three most livable cities. It may not be as prosperous as Veil City, nor as modern as Binhai City, but it is indeed a city where people and nature get along most harmoniously.

Perhaps thanks to the nearby Modai no Mori, there are shady green plants growing in every corner of the city.Go north from the EMI Museum in the south of the city, and you can reach the remains of EMI City in the north of the city after a long walking path.

After the tense gymnastics match, Shinpei and Yumi strolled among the woods and low-rise houses in relaxation.The unique slow pace of life in this city makes people slow down.After walking for more than an hour, the oldest ruins in EMI finally appeared in front of us.

The 15-meter-high giant platform is built layer by layer, and the simple steps paved with bluestone seem to have existed here since ancient times, exuding a distant ancient atmosphere.The bryophytes cling to the shady side where the sun cannot reach, and more tenacious plants take root in the crevices of the rocks, trying their best to absorb the sun's rays.

"Here we are. In front of this is the oldest site in EMI. It is said that this site existed before the establishment of EMI. The ancestors who lived here in ancient times built it and used it to worship the gods they worship." Shinpei slowly recalled, feeling a little nervous in his heart.

This relic has a very unique position in the hearts of the people of EMI. Locals will only come to this relic during major festivals to hold temple fairs or pilgrimage.Now it seems that there seems to be no one on the site.

Shinpei is also happy to be quiet, what kind of atmosphere is there under the noisy crowd?
Stepping up the stairs step by step, two tall stone statues stand side by side at the top of the high platform.

On the left is a four-legged elf statue with a diamond inlaid on its chest.There is a strange fin-shaped sailboard on the back, a slender crown extending backwards, two long horns with strange arcs piercing the sky, and two inverted fang-shaped horns beside the mouth.

On the right is a statue of an elf with two feet on the ground. The most eye-catching thing is the disc-shaped object on its shoulders. Each of its hands is inlaid with a pearl, surrounded by purple ribbons.It has a slender neck, a pointed crown on its head and continues to its wings, two tiny ivory-like horns grow beside its mouth, and a slender tail trailing behind.

Standing under their feet, a natural sacred and solemn atmosphere enveloped the two of them.Looking at the faces of the two with awe, these are the two great beings in the legend of Sinnoh.Dialka, the dragon of time, and Palkiya, the dragon of space.

According to legend, Dialuka can distort time, and the beating of his heart can make time flow; every time Palkiya breathes, the space will be stabilized.This almost conceptual ability endows it with an extremely high status in Sinnoh.

Even now that the technology has exploded, human beings have woken up from ignorance, but they still treat the two gods of time and space with reverence.To some extent, they are the cornerstone of this world, they carry the basic laws of the elf world, so that everything can work.

Zhenping naturally knows how terrifying power they have.

In the Sinnoh trilogy, Diyaluka and Palkya almost completely destroyed the entire Baiyang Town because of the territorial dispute.

The strength of these two is also the most outstanding existence among all the first-level beasts. It can be seen from the habitat that the territory of Dialga and Palkiya is not located in the real world, but exists in the void, which is an unknown area that humans cannot touch.

The history of these two statues in EMI can even be traced back to the ancient times when human beings were just born with wisdom. In a sense, the establishment of EMI was also originated from the remains of these two statues.

Even looking up at them from under the statue, Shinpei still felt a faint sense of oppression emanating from it, forming a huge area that could almost cover the entire EMI city.

The wild elves who are more sensitive to this kind of oppression will never take the initiative to approach the place where this huge pressure is emitted unless they have to. The instinct of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages makes them automatically avoid this area, which is why elf riots in EMI rarely occur.

Even after thousands of years, human beings still enjoy their grace.

Below the statue, a circle of metal barriers prevents people from getting in close contact.A stone tablet was erected on its periphery, inlaid with characters of several unknown totem styles.Beside it, engraved a translation by a scholar of elven history.

"The only thing that existed at the beginning was chaos and fluctuations. Everything was mixed together, and the first thing was born from the center..."

"The original thing created two avatars, time began to rotate, and space began to expand and extend. Afterwards, three lives were born on its own body. When the two avatars prayed, a thing called a thing was born. When the three lives prayed, a thing called a heart was born..."

"Because the world was created, the first thing lay dormant..."

The text in the middle part seems to have been erased for unknown reasons, leaving only a sentence from the last paragraph:

"All life encounters other life and produces something..."

Gently reading the words on the stone tablet, Shinpei felt lost in thought.

What does my coming mean?What will happen to me and this world?
