Great Arcanist Patlock!
Everyone was stunned as soon as this sentence was spoken.
Elaine Lamborn’s eyes were full of surprise: "Young man, did you make a mistake? How could I be the Great Arcanist of Patlock? I’m Elaine Lamborn. Assistant to the laboratory."
"Can an assistant know the so-called treasure location?" Su Chen asked rhetorically.
Elaine Lamborn replied: "That's because I am Patlock's close assistant, so I know some secrets about him."
"But even so, why did Patlock get a few treasure spots in his own laboratory? This is a laboratory. Playing with treasure in the laboratory, don't you think this is against logic? I'm sorry I'm also doing experiments. I can never imagine that when I am immersed in experiments, I will dig a few cellars in my laboratory to bury wealth."
Elaine Lamborn was stunned, not knowing how to answer.
Su Chen continued: "The most important thing is that since other people here have banished the laboratory for safety, why not take away all the wealth here? Look, look at the materials here, Long Quegen, Hong Lian Grass, star iron, cold light stone... Whether it is valueless or not, each of them is a precious material. Even in the resource-rich Austro Empire era, they are also valuable. Just give up. ? No nostalgia? Don't you find it interesting?"
Elaine Lamborn was silent.
Said it was an exile, but left a lot of precious materials and didn't take it away. This was indeed a logical flaw.
But he still said: "Young man, if you give me time, I can explain. They didn't take these materials away because they were walking in a hurry. You know that Patlock Nightmare is very scary, so scary that they are there. After closing it, I gave up here for the first time. I didn't even think about it..."
Su Chen had already interrupted him: "How do you explain that you, as a jailer, cannot touch the crystal ball?"
"This..." Elaine Lamborn was dumb again, he still wanted to explain, Su Chen has said again: "Even if you have other ways to perform the duties of a jailer, you don't think they take an important thing Isn’t it an inexplicable thing to leave it to a dead person like this, and then completely ignore it? They’re not afraid that one day you suddenly can’t think of it during these 30,000 years, and let it go?"
Duan Jiangshan couldn't help saying: "Maybe they didn't think so much at all. Those are just a group of academics who are devoted to learning. They only know how to invent new things, but they don't understand the consequences of their inventions."
"Believe me, Jiangshan, truly knowledgeable universities know more than anyone what they create what they do. The so-called scholars only understand creation, regardless of the results. From the beginning, people take it for granted. Doing research is a sacred thing. People who can do this well are more imaginative than the most romantic poets, and more rigorous than the most rigorous judges."
Su Chen said solemnly.
As a super schoolmaster, Su Chen knows best how deeply outsiders misunderstand people like them.
If they don't even have this basic thinking ability, how can they break through the fog and find the truth and mystery hidden in the depths
Speaking of Su Chen, he already looked at Elaine Lambert and said, "So let me explain to you. The reason for this is because you lied from the beginning. You are neither Elaine Lambert" Well, it’s not a jailer, and even behind the wall, there is no so-called Patlock nightmare... This is also another reason why I don’t believe you. What infinite swallowing, infinite split, and never-dead synthetic life... That kind of life simply cannot exist! It violates the most fundamental law of survival in this world. There is no hidden treasure, no nightmare, and everything is a lie!"
Elaine Lamborn shook his head: "If I were Patlock, why would I deny my identity? Why would I tell such a bad lie?"
Su Chen sneered and said: "I will answer your last question first. The reason why you tell such a bad lie is because the lie was too rushed. So rushed that you have no time to think or to weave. It is not easy to weave a seamless lie in a very short period of time. I am an expert in lies, and I know how difficult it is."
Over the years, Su Chen has not played conspiracies once or twice. Each of those seemingly simple tricks actually took him quite a long time to scrutinize and look for possible loopholes in order to prevent them from being detected.
Because of this, he knows exactly what kind of foundation a good lie needs.
Ample thinking time is essential.
No one can set up a perfect scam in a very short time, Su Chen can't, nor can the ghost in front of him.
So behind the seemingly gorgeous lie, there are actually a lot of logical flaws and untestable loopholes.
But even so, this lie actually deceived Ji Ruoyu and others.
After all, not everyone is like him and can easily see the key. Most of the time, a lie is enough to deceive most people as long as it is decent on the surface.
Elaine Lamborn still didn't give up: "Then why don't I admit my identity?"
"Because of the experiments outside." Su Chen pointed to the outside of the laboratory: "Those cruel and inhuman experiments, you know very well that you can't push this responsibility to anyone. If you let us know that you are Patlock, We will certainly not believe you so easily and obey you. So you pretend to be your assistant and show as close as possible. But you still forget that no matter who you are posing, he is of the Austrian race. In the period of the Austrian Empire, the status of the human race was a slave! A senior assistant of the great arcanist in the period of the Austrian empire, seeing the human race as a slave, would actually speak with a smile... Don’t you think this is the biggest unreasonable thing in itself ?"
The ghost was completely stunned.
Even Yueyusha Duan Jiangshan and others looked at Su Chen speechlessly.
Ji Ruoyu even stared at the little stars and murmured: "That's amazing, Brother Shen, you are so amazing!"
At that moment, the great arcanist who reads Elaine Lamborn and writes Patlock finally laughed.
"Hehehehe, I didn't expect that I would meet such a powerful young man. Yes, I am Patlock."
With his words, the original young image changed at this moment, from an old Austrian tribe to a gray-haired old Austrian tribe.
Duan Jiangshan widened his eyes in surprise: "Let me go! Can this ghost be deformed?"
Patlock has said: "I'm sorry for the previous deception. I have been trapped in this damn prison for too long. In order to pass this unspeakable loneliness, I have to put myself into a long sleep, waking up every thousand years. Come once. Until now, I have woken up thirty-six times. I used to think that I would never have a chance to be free again, until I saw you... Young human race, I once again felt ashamed of my previous lies and said The most sincere apology. I am an old man who used to be full of sins, but now, 36,000 years of imprisonment is enough for me to pay for all my sins. Now I just want to get rid of the pain of eternal loneliness."
"What you asked us to do just now was actually releasing you?" Ji Ruoyu asked.
"Yes." Patlock replied: "The mechanism on the stone platform is the key to free me from this psychic slab. Rotate it, and I can be free. I sincerely implore you, forgive and release. Me. If you can give me freedom, I am willing to be your most loyal servant. Believe me, the chief arcanist of the Austrian Empire, I will definitely be able to bring you a lot of help."
Hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up.
They looked at Su Chen together.
On this matter, obviously, we still have to ask Su Chen's opinion.
But Ji Ruoyu couldn't help saying: "Brother Shen, don't you value knowledge the most? If you have this old man with you, it will be equivalent to a living dictionary. You can know everything about the ancient arcane period."
"The premise is that we can survive." Su Chen replied.
This made everyone startled.
Patlock hurriedly said: "I'm just a ghost who can't touch anything. I can't threaten anyone anymore."
Yue Yusha couldn't help but said: "Yes, he can't touch anything, how could it threaten us?"
"If you can't touch the material, you have no ability?" Su Chen sneered: "Then what happened to his deformation just now?"
Yue Yusha stayed for a while: "You mean..."
"He can do more than you think." Su Chen said: "Otherwise, how do you think he communicated with us? It's better not to underestimate someone who can bless yourself with a proficient language."
Everyone remembered that they seemed to have overlooked one thing. From beginning to end, Patlock had been talking to them in human language.
