Character Side Story: 【Truth】 Scholar · Ke Ke Ta Luo

Civilization Era, Tower of Li Zhi, Tusnat.

The morning light had just illuminated the doors and windows of the laboratory. A busy figure had already finished his work, put on a scholar's robe, and stood in his position, quietly waiting for the arrival of his mentor and fellow disciples.

Today is a special lecture day. The most famous mentor of the Creation Alchemy Department, Zainjier, will teach in person. This is a rare opportunity for students to get close to this leader of creation alchemy.

In this regard, some people care very much.

Not long after, scholars filed in. Looking at the bright tables, chairs, doors, and windows, everyone smiled lightly and remained unmoved. Only Ados, who was walking at the end, sighed, pulled this "somewhat childish" little junior brother aside, and persuaded him softly:

"Ke Ke Ta Luo, it's useless for you to do this. This is not the way to seek 【Truth】. The path of seeking is indeed in need of effort, but you have put your effort in the wrong direction."

"The mentor will not pay attention to these details. If you really want to attract his attention, it is more important to show your talent in the field of scientific research than to do these sprinkling and sweeping chores. You... understand?"

Ke Ke Ta Luo looked at this senior brother with slight gratitude and nodded repeatedly. Ados saw that he understood, patted him on the shoulder for encouragement, and then stepped forward to stand in front of the scholars.

He was one of the students appreciated by Zainjier and was qualified to stand in front of everyone.

Ke Ke Ta Luo looked at Ados's back, feeling very happy in his heart.

Zainjier was busy with experiments and seeking all day long, so he definitely wouldn't pay attention to these details. He had never done these things to attract the mentor's attention. His talent was acceptable, but it was still slightly inferior among a group of geniuses, and the gap between him and the department leader Zainjier was like a chasm. Wanting to enter the other party's field of vision directly was somewhat wishful thinking.

However, the resources of the laboratory were not all in the hands of the mentor. Every student Zainjier favored had a large amount of abundant experimental resources in their hands. As long as one could get on one of these lines, it would be enough for Ke Ke Ta Luo to get an opportunity to further display himself.

The Tower of Li Zhi is the kingdom of 【Truth】, never the Grand Court of Judgment that pursues fairness and justice in everything. Here, one must pay attention to methods, and methods are truth.

Ke Ke Ta Luo might not be keen on scientific research, but he had his own unique insights into 【Truth】.

When using a certain method to reach the destination, he would always wisely choose the one he was best at.

And just like that, after "working hard" for a long time, Ke Ke Ta Luo finally entered Ados's field of vision.

If a genius above a genius is a freak, then the only person in the entire Creation Alchemy Department who could be called a freak at that time seemed to be Zainjier alone. Ados could be considered a genius at most, and Ke Ke Ta Luo was a talent at best.

The Creation Alchemy Department also had many branches. Ados was better at puppet research. On this path, no one had gone further than Ados, and even Zainjier had high hopes for him.

Ke Ke Ta Luo saw Ados's potential, so he chose to get close at the right time, using "sweat of effort" to exchange for an opportunity to get close.

His "diligence" was seen by Ados. Although he wouldn't be reused, at least Ados was willing to let Ke Ke Ta Luo try some repetitive and monotonous experimental recording work.

Ke Ke Ta Luo had some small thoughts, but he was also a down-to-earth person. He knew that he couldn't go far just by being clever, so he settled down and completed every task Ados gave him without complaint, proving to the entire experimental group with silence and diligent methodology: he was very reliable.

Ados appreciated this junior brother more and more, gradually treating him as his most compatible assistant.

Just like that, Ke Ke Ta Luo changed from an ordinary scholar of the Tower of Li Zhi to a member of the academic circle of Zainjier, who was very popular in the Creation Alchemy Department at the time.

Facts proved that his vision was very accurate. This path was chosen correctly, and Ke Ke Ta Luo gradually gained some fame in the Tower of Li Zhi.

But as he got closer to the power layer by being appreciated by Ados, he found that the relationship between his senior brother Ados and his mentor Zainjier was far closer than he imagined!

Outside of conventional academic research, these crazy fellow disciples were actually trying to conduct forbidden experiments and even had some results.

This made Ke Ke Ta Luo very...

Happy.

Don't forget, he was also a scholar of 【Truth】. When facing "true truth," he would also go crazy.

In order to get closer to the truth, he resolutely joined this gamble. He also wanted to know if he could become a better version of himself through alchemy creation.

The gears of fate turned quietly at this moment, but no one could predict that the direction of the gears turning would be contrary to the expectations of the scholars.

Zainjier's forbidden experiment was exposed. I don't know who spread it. Other departments might be jealous of the achievements of the Creation Alchemy Department, or they were frightened by this experiment called "Flesh and Blood God-Birth." In short, a storm gathered quietly in the sound of the experiment being exposed.

Ke Ke Ta Luo was very keen. He felt the hostility of other departments toward creation alchemy and felt the murderous intent from the dark more than once during that time. He wanted to run, but he didn't. Finally, after thinking about it, he took a huge risk to remind that senior brother Ados who had taken care of him.

He told the other party that the Creation Alchemy Department was going to have trouble.

Ados naturally knew, because he had already heard the news of Zainjier's death!

The mentor died, not on the path of seeking knowledge, but in the hands of fellow travelers!

Yes, the pursuit of 【Truth】 could indeed be counted as a competition, but the path of seeking 【Truth】 in his ideal should not be academic struggles of mutual precaution and mutual hostility, but scientific research cooperation of mutual appreciation and common progress.

He couldn't understand. Even if the mentor conducted forbidden experiments, these experiments were pushing the Tower of Li Zhi closer to Them. What was wrong with this?

"Are we wrong?" Ados asked Ke Ke Ta Luo with a face full of disappointment.

Ke Ke Ta Luo shook his head firmly: "No, we are closer to the gods than they are!"

This sentence woke Ados up.

"Right, we are not wrong. They are wrong, the Tower of Li Zhi is wrong, 【Truth】 is wrong!" Ados became more and more excited as he spoke. He grabbed Ke Ke Ta Luo's hand and said excitedly, "You are right, we are closer to the gods than they are!

Ke Ke Ta Luo, the Creation Alchemy Department is in danger. They are afraid that we will go faster, so they will not leave us who know the truth to continue the experiment. The mentor is already dead. If we want to live, we can only leave here!"

"What, the mentor... is dead?"

"Yes, they killed the great Zainjier. This is no longer the soil for the birth of 【Truth】. No, perhaps even 【Truth】 has problems. Otherwise, why would He let the Learned Chair Committee prohibit these experiments that get closer to Him?"

Ke Ke Ta Luo was stunned. As someone who had received 【Truth】 education since childhood, he instinctively spoke for 【Truth】:

"Perhaps 【Truth】 does not prohibit it, but the Learned Chair Committee is confusing right and wrong?"

"He doesn't stop the Learned Chair Committee, which is a kind of indulgence!" Ados was extremely angry. He scolded a few times and then said seriously to Ke Ke Ta Luo, "The Tower of Li Zhi no longer has space for our survival. Ke Ke Ta Luo, are you willing to leave here with me?

We need a new fertile soil to pursue our own truth. The old 【Truth】 should be abandoned. The new 'truth' is calling us from afar. Are you willing to leave here with me, leave the Tower of Li Zhi?"

"... Ah?"

Ke Ke Ta Luo had never thought about this question, but the situation before him left him no choice. The closeness he once chose created his distance today.

He pondered for a moment and nodded heavily: "Good, are we leaving now?"

Ados was also stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that there would really be a scholar willing to flee with him. You know, those scholars who usually flattered him and the mentor couldn't wait to draw a line with them on the day the Creation Alchemy Department had an accident.

And Ke Ke Ta Luo, this simple little junior brother, was actually willing to go and chase new ideals with himself.

At this moment, Ados was moved.

He was indeed loyal!

Right, loyalty is the most precious quality Ados discovered in Ke Ke Ta Luo.

In this regard, Ke Ke Ta Luo deeply agreed.

After all, he was incomparably loyal to every path he chose. ===== CHAPTER 1477 =====
