Elf: I'm Just a Commentator

"You should see for yourself. To me, this is like reading a book written in a foreign language; it only has a hypnotic effect."

"I think you should learn a little bit of a foreign language."

Lin Xuan could only take the book and say something to Bai Yao.

"Forget it, isn't it better to leave this kind of thing to you translators?"

Bai Yao waved casually, while Lin Xuan, holding a book, walked over and sat down on a chair nearby.

The only problem was that the chair was a bit too high; Lin Xuan's feet couldn't touch the ground when she sat down.

"There are many legends about Necrozma here, but it's hard to tell if they're true or false. We need to find the useful ones."

"So do you think these things are really useful? In the end, they are all myths and legends. How many of them are true?"

Bai Yao felt that even if they were to look at something, they should look at something else. Why did they have to focus on these legends from the very beginning?

"Although they are all ancient legends, there are bound to be many elements that have been embellished over time and through transmission. But it is often these very elements that are most likely to become clues."

Lin Xuan said without looking up, "What I'm most afraid of right now is not even having any clues."

"Never mind, I don't understand these things anyway, you can just look at it."

"However, there's a problem here."

Looking at the myths and legends he had just read, Lin Xuan noticed a problem: the descriptions of Necrozma in these myths and legends seemed to be all about Necrozma in its normal form.

However, the "Radiant God" has never been seen.

Is it because the Radiant God has never appeared? Or perhaps, from ancient times until now, Necrozma has never returned to its complete form.

Then Lin Xuan also thought of what Zhuang Sizhe had said earlier: their understanding of Necrozma's dual forms came from the Ultimate Investigation Team, which meant that there wasn't much relevant information in the records of this world.

Fortunately, at that moment, Dr. Zhuang Sizhe finally came in carrying a pot of water and several cups.

Upon hearing the commotion, Bai Yao immediately snatched the book from Lin Xuan's hands, and Lin Xuan could only move her chair closer to Bai Yao.

"Come on, have some water. There's no need to rush this. Sun Siming also told me that the Alliance is taking this matter very seriously, so I have plenty of time these next few days."

Zhuang Sizhe said this to the two of them, and then sat down on the other chair.

The room is quite large; even excluding the bookshelves, there is still a considerable amount of space. However, it is usually Zhuang Sizhe's private study.

Moreover, those books are actually preserved in other places, but because of his personal habits, he is not used to the books being placed in the wrong location.

If other people need to access these materials, they actually need to go to a special archive room.

These things could actually be sent to Lin Xuan in electronic format, but Lin Xuan still wanted to come to Alora to take a look.

"Doctor, is there any information about the second form you mentioned in the Alola data?"

Bai Yao spoke to Zhuang Sizhe.

"Well, actually no. In our original impression, the form of Ultimate Necrozma should be fixed, and it's not as strong as we know it now. More information about the second form comes from the Ultimate Survey Team. We suspect that when it came to our world, it hadn't recovered and was in its weakest state, which is the form that devours light."

They were mostly right, and their guesses were largely the same as Lin Xuan's.

The second form that Dr. Zhuang Sizhe mentioned should be Ultimate Necrozma.

For a period of time afterward, Lin Xuan and Bai Yao stayed in the study together, constantly reviewing these materials.

It's not just about those myths and legends, but also some information from Metropolis.

The information from Metropolis is actually more detailed because the other party had genuine contact with Necrozma and knew about Necrozma from the beginning, so their records are more accurate.

However, Lin Xuan didn't dare to completely trust the Ultimate Investigation Team's data. After all... how could he guarantee that what others gave him was accurate?

Without verifying it yourself, you still need to be more careful.

As for Dr. Zhuang Sizhe, the more Lin Xuan looked at him, the stranger he seemed. This kid had been reading with Bai Yao since earlier, and Bai Yao... if he remembered correctly, was an apprentice at Jinhui Martial Arts Academy.

So he's Luo Guan's student, right? That big oaf's student is really that good at English? Zhuang Sizhe didn't believe it.

According to previous research, Zhuang Sizhe and Luo Guan had actually had some contact, and might even have been more familiar with each other than Sun Siming and Luo Guan, who were both in China.

Luo Guan didn't tell the two of them about this, mainly because of Sun Siming's influence, which he felt was enough.

Although he felt something was slightly off, Zhuang Sizhe only made some guesses in his mind. He thought it was more due to the special arrangements made by the alliance. That was the only explanation he could come up with.

"If you are interested in the second form of Ultra Necrozma, there is actually a description in a very ancient Alola myth that may be related to Ultra Necrozma, but... it only happened once, and the description is very vague. At least we in our research institute dare not use it as evidence."

Seemingly having discovered that Lin Xuan and Bai Yao had been searching for information related to Ultimate Necrozma, Dr. Zhuang Sizhe spoke again.

"Have it?"

Bai Yao immediately turned around and asked.

"Yes, I'll look for it for you."

Dr. Zhuang Sizhe walked to the bookshelf in the far corner and took out a book from the bottom shelf. The cover of the book was brand new, proving that it hadn't been flipped through much after it was printed and had just been thrown there.

But adhering to the principle of trying anything, Lin Xuan still had Bai Yao open the book, and then Dr. Zhuang Sizhe began to explain it.

"That's a record from over a thousand years ago. If what's recorded in the book is true, it does have some similarities to the Ultimate Necrozma in the data the Ultimate Investigation Team gave us. It once appeared in the same place."

"where?"

Bai Yao asked the question while flipping through the book.

"To be honest, it's not too far from the research institute. It takes about a day to get there if you head east from here. You two should be able to get there even faster."

Lin Xuan took a closer look at the legend. It had huge wings on its back and emitted a strong, dazzling light from its body. It was like the embodiment of the sun, suspended in mid-air.

This is a general description in the book. If we follow this description, there are actually corresponding Pokémon in ordinary Pokémon, such as Volcarona.

In the Unova mythology, the Volcano moth is also considered an incarnation of the sun, and powerful Volcano moths could very well achieve this description.

Moreover, since it's just mythology, it's normal for the accounts to be slightly exaggerated.

[Have the PhD send us the materials; we'll head over first and look at them on the way.]

After thinking for a moment, Lin Xuan made a judgment.

Should we go now?

"Okay, let's hurry up a bit. If you're tired, go to the hotel to rest. I can go by myself."

"Doctor, could you please give us the detailed address of that place? Also, could you please provide us with a copy of these documents?"

Just as Lin Xuan finished speaking, Bai Yao spoke to Dr. Zhuang Sizhe.

"The information is definitely fine. Just don't spread it out. With Lin Xuan's authority, it's not difficult for him to get this information from the Alliance."

Dr. Zhuang Sizhe casually remarked that Bai Yao's authority was definitely insufficient. Firstly, her strength was not as terrifying as Lin Xuan's, and secondly, she did not hold an important position like Zhong Mingyi, so her authority within the alliance was relatively low.

As for why Lin Xuan is being mentioned at this time, it's because everyone knows that Lin Xuan and Bai Yao have a good relationship!

Anyway, he didn't want to know about these young people's affairs, but speaking of Lin Xuan...

Zhuang Sizhe looked at Lin Xuan, who happened to be there at the moment, and the more he looked at him, the more he felt that he looked a lot like Lin Xuan. But that didn't make sense either. It was impossible for the two of them to have a child at this time.

However, while observing, Zhuang Sizhe did not forget to continue:

"However, there is no need for you to go to that place. The reason why our research institute has downgraded the importance level of these records is because the China Alliance and Alora also went there to investigate together, and found nothing."

"It's alright, let's go take a look first, it won't waste any time on the way."

Hearing Bai Yao say this, Zhuang Sizhe could only nod.

"Will this child stay at the research institute for now? We have extra rooms here, so don't worry."

Zhuang Sizhe walked up and patted Lin Xuan on the shoulder before speaking, and Bai Yao could only wave her hand in response.

"No need, no need. We've already booked a hotel, so please don't bother."

"It's alright, really. Our research institute is quite large, and we don't actually have that many researchers. But since you've already booked rooms, I won't keep you any longer. After all, hotels are more comfortable than staying here."

Bai Yao breathed a sigh of relief. After all, Lin Xuan was definitely going to go with her. She couldn't just let Lin Xuan go by herself and leave her here, could she?

"Then I'll take him back to the hotel first, and then I'll go take a look at the place you mentioned."

Bai Yao quickly said a few words to Dr. Zhuang Sizhe, and then hurriedly pulled Lin Xuan out of the research institute.

However, going to the hotel was definitely out of the question. After pulling Lin Xuan outside the research institute, Bai Yao whispered to Lin Xuan.

"Shall we go there now?"

"I'll go there myself. Let me take you back to your hotel first."

Although it was strange for Lin Xuan to say such things now, Bai Yao didn't think so, even though Bai Yao seemed to be a little older than Lin Xuan in terms of actual age.

"No need, let's just go directly there. I think Dr. Zhuang Sizhe seems a little suspicious, but there shouldn't be any problems."

"You actually noticed that?"

Lin Xuan looked at Bai Yao with a hint of surprise in her eyes, and then Bai Yao slapped Lin Xuan on the head.

"Little Lin Xuan, please be mindful of your current status!"

"Yes, yes, but if it really is related to Necrozma, you still have to be careful and don't stray too far from me."

Because of what happened with Long Xing, Lin Xuan's plan was either to let Bai Yao stay in the hotel, or if she wanted to go over, she had to come with him and absolutely not let it be like what happened with Long Xing before.

"It's easy to feel safe when you say things like that... I wish you could grow a little taller."

Bai Yao reached out and compared the height difference between the two of them. Originally, Lin Xuan was a head taller than her, but now it was the other way around.

"Hehe, just wait, I'll turn back into myself sooner or later."
