As for what will happen to Ren after Professor Valk arrives at Casimir...who cares about this!
Renn abducted the professor's only daughter. No matter how much Professor Valk punished him, it would not be too much. This was the lesson he deserved.
"Ahem, don't be happy, you two," Professor Valk cleared his throat and said, "I have a few questions to ask you."
"If you want to know anything, just ask." Li Ang replied without thinking.
In Leon’s opinion, what questions can Professor Valcke ask?It's nothing more than Sarah's recent situation, how to face them after he goes to Casimir, and other small problems.
After all, father and daughter have not seen each other for five or six years. It takes 21 days to develop a good habit, and five or six years is enough time to completely change a person.
But Professor Valk asked such a question.
"We haven't seen each other for more than half a year. How is your relationship now? How far has it progressed?"
Professor Valk looked back and forth between Leon and Adele, and nodded with satisfaction after a moment, "Your boy promised me to protect little Adele. It seems that she has not been wronged much."
"When are you going to get married?"
The air suddenly became silent. No one expected that Professor Valk would suddenly ask this question.
After a moment, Adele muttered something dissatisfied.
"uncle!!"
"Um...professor, aren't you going to ask about Sister Sarah? For example, has she changed in any way over the years?" Li Ang asked tentatively.
This actually made Professor Valk a little confused.
"Why are you asking that? No matter how much she changes, she will still be my daughter. What's the point of asking?"
Li Ang didn't know what to say. Now he finally understood why Sister Sarah occasionally showed an expression of gritted teeth when she mentioned her father, in addition to missing him.
In some aspects, Professor Valk is... so slow that it's almost speechless.
"We do have such a plan." Li Ang answered honestly.
This is not something shameful. Sooner or later, Professor Valk will have to be told. After all, the professor is the only one who can be their witness.
"What do you mean you have such a plan?"
Professor Valk's voice suddenly rose a bit, and Adele lowered her head in shame.
"Uncle, please stop talking..."
It doesn't matter how much the two of them discuss this kind of thing in private, but now Professor Valk has put it on the table, not to mention that the professor is Adele's only elder now.
Adele felt uncomfortable all over, as if there were ants crawling all over her body.
"This is a very important issue, how can you not talk about it??"
As if he wanted to ask all the questions he had accumulated during this period of time, after forcibly suppressing Adele's objections, Professor Valk began a barrage of questions.
Is the house ready?How was your stay in Casimir?Do you have a serious job?What’s next?Do you have any definite plans for the future?Are you prepared to live like this for the rest of your life?
The series of questions asked Li Ang almost left his body. Unexpectedly, he had already traveled through time, and he still had to face these extremely realistic problems.
Fortunately, Li Ang was able to satisfy all these requirements.
Needless to say, the house is also the ancestral home of the Laiguang family that was traded from Ma Enna. Miss Margaret will probably have to work for more than ten years before she can redeem the house from Li Ang.
Work... Should being a director of Ball Pharmaceuticals be considered a formal job?
As for future plans?
They may not have the energy to think about these issues before solving the troubles for both of them.
However, Professor Valk did not want to make things difficult for Li Ang. Perhaps he just wanted to test Li Ang's sincerity. After answering these questions, Professor Valk let Li Ang go.
"So, our current plan is roughly like this, getting married... we have to wait a little longer. After we finish these few things at hand, we will return to Casimir, and we will need your help, Professor. "
Professor Valk nodded silently, then sighed,
"This old guy like me is just talking and I won't interfere anymore. It's up to you to decide your relationship."
"But I have another question."
"What about Rui? What are you going to do with that child?"
Chapter 9 The Army Divides into Two Ways
Among them, Professor Valk was the most affected. He did not retain all the memories of Sagazaki City.
The professor only vaguely remembered that during those days in Sagazaki City, there was a little girl named Rui who pretended to be his daughter and had been secretly taking care of him. Without the help of Rui, it would be almost impossible for Professor Valk to calm down. to spend that time.
After knowing that Liu Yi also returned to the world of Terra with them, besides Leon and Adele, Professor Valk was most concerned about the child.
Although he knew that Rui was not as young as she looked on the surface, in the eyes of Professor Valk, Rui was just a child who had not yet grown up.
Older age does not mean rich experience. Sitting in an empty shrine for hundreds of years will not bring any help to a person's growth. Rui's character is just like her appearance, she is just an ordinary person. A common teenage girl.
It was precisely because of this accident that Liu Yi had the opportunity to come into contact with this colorful world.
"Well... to be honest, her condition is not very good, and besides waiting for her to wake up on her own, there is no particularly good way."
Li Ang looked a little helpless.
Maybe Liuyi was just an ordinary girl once, but when she was chosen by the great god, everything became different.
As an agent who carries the power of the gods, Liu Yi's situation is completely different from that of ordinary people. Li Ang only knows two or three agents, and they are not here yet. There is no standard at all to refer to.
"That painting came from the Yan Kingdom. Maybe we can find some clues from the Yan Kingdom. Of course, it's only possible." Li Angu said.
"So, we are going to send you, Professor, back to Casimir first, and then try your luck in Yan Country."
"Send me back to Casimir? Am I a three-year-old child? Do you still need to watch me when I go out?"
Professor Valk's tone was not very good. He seemed to want to blame Leon, but thinking about it carefully, he didn't seem to blame Leon. After all, everything Leon did was for his safety.
"How much time do you think it will take to return to Casimir from the East Kingdom, and then from Casimir to Yan Kingdom? How many accidents will happen in such a long time?"
The answer is at least a month.
Li Ang remained silent and did not answer, because in his mind, Liu Yi was indeed not as important as Professor Valk. Of course, he could only think about this in his own mind. If he really wanted to say it out loud, it would damage his image.
After losing his temper, the professor gradually calmed down and said, "You don't need to escort me back. After I feel better, I will find a caravan to go to Casimir by myself."
Li Ang could only smile bitterly and said that he would think of a way to let the professor take a good rest first.
After finally persuading Professor Valk, an important question was now placed in front of Li Ang——
What exactly do they do next.
After leaving Professor Valk's ward and standing in the corridor of the hospital, Adele asked worriedly, "Leon, aren't you going to save Rui?"
"Of course we have to save, but there are too many things we have to do, and there must be a sequence." Li Ang rubbed his temples, feeling a little headache, "And even if we put other things aside, It’s not that easy to save her.”
Going to Yan Country, they not only have to investigate what the Naumans once did here, but there is also a bigger trouble waiting for them.
Jingzhe's master, the old Heavenly Master who enjoyed a high status in the Yan Kingdom, had already set his sights on them, and even arranged an official position for Li Ang in advance.
There is no way to hide. Unless they never step foot into the Yan Kingdom's land in this life, the Heavenly Master will come to them sooner or later.
These two things are enough to cause a headache, but if you add in the clothes, it will be a mess.
Liu Yi's coma is not a normal one. It is probably related to the collapse of the world in the painting. The only feasible way to save her is to repair the painting and find the maker of the painting.
So here’s the question. Although the area of Yan Kingdom ranks third in the world, second only to Ursus and Sargon, more than half of the land in those two countries is ice desert that is not suitable for human habitation. The total population is several times larger than those two countries combined.
In such a country, how can one accurately find the author of that painting?
To describe it as finding a needle in a haystack is somewhat inappropriate. It should be said that Li Ang needs to find a drop of water that dissolves in the ocean.
"Let me think about it... How about Adele send the professor back to Casimir, and I will take Liu Yi to Yan Country to try my luck..."
The person who can make such a picture scroll is obviously not an ordinary person. Maybe we can find some clues from Jingzhe's master.
For the current situation, this is the best solution Li Ang can think of.
But suddenly, Li Ang felt that something was wrong with the surrounding atmosphere.
Li Ang raised his head and looked at Adele, only to find that Adele was looking at him with a very subtle expression, as if she wanted to see something from his face.
"Li Ang...were you serious just now?"
"Ah? Is there any problem with this?" Li Ang didn't think there was anything wrong at all, "I don't feel comfortable letting the professor go back alone, and the person that the old master is targeting is me, Adele, you can't replace me. Going to Yan Country, this distribution should be the most reasonable."
"If you are worried, you can come to Yan Country to find me later. I will wait for you there."
After staring at Li Ang for a while, Adele had to admit that Li Ang really didn't realize what was wrong with his proposal.
"Leon... I have a question. Rui-chan is in a coma right now, right?"
"Yes what's the matter?"
Adele sighed and said, "Then have you ever thought about how you are going to take care of the unconscious Liu Yi when you take her and the two of them to Yan Country?"
Although Liu Yi fell into a coma, she still had all the physiological reactions she should have. No matter how powerful the gods were, they did not allow her to break away from the category of normal creatures. Li Ang did not eat when he should eat.
"Forehead……"
Li Ang was embarrassed for a moment. He really ignored this problem just now.
Generally speaking, would anyone pay attention to this kind of thing... I can only say that girls have really complicated minds.
He could have said that it would be enough to hire two more nannies to go to Yan Kingdom together, but after thinking about it for a while, Li Ang eliminated this wrong answer.
After scratching his head, Li Ang replied, "Sorry, I really didn't expect this."
"Okay...it seems like Adele, you need to go to Yan Country with me."
Chapter 10 Leaving
"What should Uncle Valk do?"
It's true that Adele really wants to act with Leon, but she can't really leave Professor Valk behind and let him return to Casimir alone.
In fact, she was already leaning toward the plan proposed by Li Ang. She was just reminding Li Ang not to make any jokes because of his carelessness.
"How about I hire some people to protect the professor when he goes to Casimir." Leon thought for a while and said.
If Professor Valcke insists, this is the best choice.
As for taking the professor with him to Yan Country... If it weren't for Sister Sarah's child being full moon soon, this would be the last chance to repair the relationship between their father and daughter, otherwise this would be a good solution.
The two of them took Liu Yi to the Yan Kingdom to find a way to repair the scroll and awaken Liu Yi. According to Professor Valk, mercenaries could help escort Casimir back.
The wilderness is not a place where strangers are not allowed to enter. Although there is fierce fighting within the Eastern Kingdom, no matter whether it is the southern or northern political power, their external trade routes still remain open.
Dongguo is just a small country. After entering modern society, there are many things that cannot be self-sufficient. If they do not maintain foreign trade, they may collapse before they can decide the winner.
Therefore, the risk of returning to Casimir is not high. They are not a caravan. Even if they accidentally encounter plunderers in the wilderness, they will not be interested in this team without any oil or water.
As long as Li Ang opens his mouth, given his official position in Dayan, no matter which government in the East Kingdom will be willing to help him, they may even send their own troops to help escort him. I just hope that Li Ang can leave the East Kingdom as soon as possible.
After all, no one likes to have an uncle in their own home. With Li Ang, the Dali Si, staying in the country, they can't do anything even if they want to do anything privately.
"I'd better go back with Uncle Valk," Adele said.
"No rush, you can think about it again. Anyway, the professor won't go back tomorrow. We still have time."
Professor Valk's body was still very weak and could not withstand the fatigue caused by the long journey. Only when he was almost fully recovered could he set off for Casimir.
As for the mercenaries... no matter what Adele chooses, these people will still be hired.
Even if Adele has rich experience in fieldwork, she still needs help from others, not to mention that Professor Valk's physical condition no longer allows him to take risks. It is better for him to stay in the mobile city in peace and contentment for his retirement.
However, this is what Li Ang will do later.
Looking out the window, a morning had passed, and the midday sun was hanging high above their heads, emitting a blazing light that was daunting to ordinary people.
But this is not a problem for them. Just a small spell can completely isolate them from the heat wave outside.
I heard that using this kind of magic, some people can even go deep into the Source Stone contaminated area without wearing any protective equipment. In comparison, heat insulation is just child's play.
It was still early, so Li Ang remembered their initial plan.
So, Li Ang stretched out his hand to Adele, "It's still early, do you want to go see this city with me?"
"Okay."
Taking Li Ang's extended hand, Adele accepted Li Ang's invitation with a smile.
