Elf: How do you cultivate immortality in the elf world?

Chapter 369 News about that man.

"I've really been through a lot during this time," Ike said with a silly grin, scratching the back of his head.

"For example?" Lu Li was indeed quite interested in Ike's experiences during this period.

"This one……"

Ike glanced at Long Ying beside him without making a sound.

Lu Li, who understood immediately, nodded: "Come with me to the basement."

Long Ying knew perfectly well that the little black-haired guy was on guard against her.

Long Ying, looking displeased, pursed her lips as she watched the two figures disappear into the distance.

Bao Bao seemed about to say something but then stopped.

She was also quite interested in Ike's experiences during this period.

"It's all that damn woman's fault. If she weren't here, my brother definitely wouldn't have gone to the basement." Bao Bao grumbled angrily at Long Ying, the uninvited guest.

Bao Bao could only invite Long Ying next to her, "How about we go play video games?"

Long Ying wanted to refuse, after all, she was way past the age of playing video games.

But considering that doing nothing would be rather awkward, Long Ying could only nod helplessly.

"Just consider it keeping the girl company to pass the time," Long Ying comforted herself.

"Let's just give this woman a way out, so she won't blame me later," Bao Bao comforted himself.

…………

In the basement.

"Let's just find a place to sit. It's just the two of us, so there's no need to be too formal." Lu Li casually found a place to sit down.

Seeing this, Ike quickly and properly sat down opposite Lu Li.

After they sat down, Lu Li took the initiative to say, "Let's confirm the time first. In the real world, you've been missing for about two months."

Ike nodded: "I've already confirmed this with my younger siblings, but my schedule is different."

"How to say?"

Lu Li looked at Ike with a probing gaze.

Ike, kneeling on the ground, reported: "I spent almost three years in another world, and then about half a year in a special secret realm."

"So, three and a half years? That's quite a long time. Would you mind if I felt your bones?" Lu Li asked.

Upon hearing this, Ike proactively extended his hand to Lu Li.

"Boss, my life is yours, there's no need to be so polite," Ike retorted.

Lu Li smiled but didn't say anything. Instead, she reached out and grabbed Ike's arm.

According to the bone examination, Ike's bone age is already 20 years old, which means that he has indeed been in another world for three years.

If you set the time scale to its maximum, then what determines a person's potential will not be effort, but talent.

Thinking of this, Lu Li asked, "So, what about your current strength?"

When it came to strength, Ekko's tone became much lighter.

Ike proudly boasted, "I'm at the peak of the Dojo level. I feel like it won't be long before I break through to the Elite Four level."

In just three years, she has broken through from a senior trainer to a gym leader. Her talent is at least on par with Freya's, but she can't compete with Boom yet.

Lu Li nodded in satisfaction. If Ike broke through to the Heavenly King level, then Ike would be able to do a lot of things for him.

Thinking of this, Lu Li said again, "Let's talk about another world. How can you be sure that you went to another world and not some super-large secret realm?"

"because……"

Ike said in a low voice, "Because it's a world with completely different rules than this one. That world is peaceful, even like an ideal utopia."

"That is a utopian world that absolutely does not exist in the elven world. In that world, everyone can travel without worry. They don't have to worry about their safety or whether they will never return."

"And... Boss, can you imagine? A world where a ten-year-old child can travel the world?"

Land from:"……"

This is not something I can imagine, because I've seen it before.

Lu Li now strongly suspects that Ike may have traveled to the world of an elf animation, or of course, it could also be the game world.

Despite his inner grumbling, Lu Li still cooperated and said, "It is indeed hard to imagine."

Ike, who watches his orphanage friends go on trips every year but never sees them return, must really like that kind of world.
Then why did Ekko return to this world?
Surely it can't be that you enjoy being cruel, right?

Of course, it's also possible that he can't let go of his Wildfire Gang members.

Lu Li silently thought to himself that he was starting to look at this little black guy in front of him with new respect... no, this handsome young man.

Take himself as an example.

Although the elven world wasn't his ideal utopia, he certainly wouldn't be happy to return to the world he was in before his transmigration.

If given the choice between being a corporate slave and being a superior person, 99% of people would choose the latter.

This is human nature.

This is also why he admires Ike. A person's character may change at any time, but human nature will never change, and Ike defies this common sense.

Anything that goes against human nature has a side that he admires, since he himself couldn't do it.

"How did you finally return to this world?" Lu Li wanted to know whether the other party returned voluntarily or was forced to return.

Ike: "Because of the God of Ideals!"

Land from:"???"

"The ideal god? The ideal god I understand?" Lu Li was stunned.

Oh no! The fake has run into the real deal.

You have to understand that he still carries the identity of an idealist!

“It was the dragon of ideals. He gave me two choices: you stay in that utopia, or you return to this world to build the utopia I envision,” Ike said.

Lu Li: "So you chose it?"

Ike looked at Lu Li with a solemn expression and utmost seriousness: "Yes, that world is wonderful, but it is not my world. I would rather return to my world and create a more ideal future."

"I know I might not be able to do that, but I believe that if it were you, boss, you definitely could. Boss, would you support me?"

Land from:"……"

Lu Li wanted to say it had nothing to do with him, but considering that Ike was still his underling, and that he had been swindling people for so long under the guise of an idealist messenger.

Lu Li finally nodded.

"Young man! Bear my name in your honor, and go forth to create a free future!"

Of course, I only kept these important words to myself.

Seeing Lu Li nod, Ike's face instantly lit up with joy.

“I knew you would support me, boss,” Ike said gratefully.

"And then what happened?" Lu Li was still quite curious about what happened next. "Then the God of Ideals sent me to a secret realm, where I obtained a black stone. Just like that, I inexplicably became the Messenger of Ideals."

Land from:"……"

Gan!
Lu Li expressed envy, but that was all she felt was envy.

As someone who is quite self-aware, Lu Li knows that he has no chance of gaining the approval of the ideal god.

What kind of person can become an idealist? Someone who cherishes ideals and is willing to give up everything for them. Ike is clearly such a person.

Lu Li concluded, "So, during the time you were missing, you were actually undergoing a test from the God of Ideals?"

Ike nodded.

"Your opportunity is quite good. Now, can you command the God of Ideals?" Lu Li continued to probe.

Ike smiled wryly and said, "The God of Ideals said that if I fight for my ideals, He will descend and fight alongside me."

Fighting for ideals?

So what exactly constitutes fighting for an ideal?

Lu Li felt that Ike's words were too broad and very vague.

Does eating and sleeping count as fighting for an ideal? Does burning, killing, and looting count as fighting for an ideal? Does carrying out your boss's orders count as fighting for an ideal?

With such a broad and vague term, and the right to interpret it still in the hands of others, Lu Li instantly realized how much of the ideal envoy was unreliable.

To put it bluntly, if Ike, the messenger of ideals, wants to ask the god of ideals for help, it depends entirely on the god of ideals' mood.

"Let's continue talking about the other world. Is there anything magical about that world?" Lu Li wanted to confirm whether Ike had gone to the anime or game world.

Of course, it's more likely to be some parallel world.

"Trains in that world seem to grow up incredibly fast, especially before the age of 30. Their growth rate is ten times that of us here," Ekko said earnestly.

"The price is that after age 30, you'll be the same as after age 60 in our world?" Lu Li pressed.

Ike nodded.

It fits the background of children's anime quite well.

"The most incredible thing is that I met a trainer in that world, and he was simply a god!" Ike's tone was filled with admiration, clearly deeply impressed by him.

Lu Li: "What do you mean?"

"He became a champion-level trainer in less than a year," Ike said enviously.

"Where's the name?"

"His name is Crimson!"

Lu Li: “!!!”

I'm a fighter!
It's now confirmed: Ike went to the Elf Movie World.

But is that world really a utopia?
Compared to the innocence of animation, the Pokémon movies are more realistic, and also more brutal.

Then, Lu Li realized something even more serious.

If the Ideal Dragon can send people to parallel worlds, can other first-tier gods do the same? If this is the case, will a Rainbow Rocket Team with a certain world start waging a multiverse war?
No matter what it is, once parallel universes are involved, the situation becomes extremely chaotic.

Forcibly suppressing the urge to curse, Lu Li asked as calmly as possible, "Ike, do you know how you traveled to that world?"

Ike shook his head: "I don't know, it feels like I'm in another world the moment I close my eyes and open them again."

Lu Li also felt that he was being too presumptuous. Ike was just an ordinary person, how could he possibly understand the intricacies of the matter?

Since the world Ike recently traveled to had a good setting, Lu Li continued to ask, "After you returned to this world, you stayed in the secret realm for another six months?"

"Yes."

Ike nodded, then showed the black mark on his palm.

"After leaving that world, I was teleported to a tower, and that's where I obtained this."

Upon seeing the mark on the other party's head, Lu Li narrowed his eyes and thought calmly, "A divine mark?"

"This mark was originally a black stone. After I grabbed it, it entered my body."

Lu Li asked, "This should be a divine mark. If nothing unexpected happens, you should be able to use this mark to open the entrance to a certain secret realm, right?"

Ike nodded, then said with some regret, "Yes, but I still can't perfectly control the location of the entrance and exit."

Lu Li: "Is it a super-large secret realm?"

"Yes, that secret realm is too dangerous. It's best not to enter without champion-level strength." Ike's tone carried a hint of lingering fear.

He had personally experienced how dangerous that secret realm was.

In the past six months, he has died nearly 2000 times in that secret realm, averaging about 10 deaths a day.

If it weren't for the fortunate awakening of his ideal power, he would almost certainly not have been able to leave that secret realm alive.

“It’s normal for super-large secret realms to exist, especially since your secret realm isn’t exactly a normal one,” Lu Li comforted him.

If there is a tower, it must be the Twin Towers.

In other words, the true god is also in that secret realm, which means that there may be more than one overlord in that secret realm.

Reality and ideals are opposites.

According to the divine settings of this world, the two overlords in that secret realm must be enemies, and the kind of enemies who wish they could beat the other's brains out.

As an ideal messenger, Ike would certainly be disliked by the true faction elves in that secret realm.

"Has the God of Ideals made a move?" Lu Li asked curiously.

Ike shook his head.

"Then how did you manage to get out of that secret realm alive?" Lu Li asked Ike with some surprise.

Without the protection of the ideal god, according to the setting of that secret realm, how did Ike, who had not yet reached the level of a king, manage to survive in that secret realm for half a year?

"Because of my special ability, the God of Ideals granted me a special ability that allows me to go back in time and correct my mistakes, although I can only go back a few minutes. It is thanks to this ability that I have managed to survive," Ike explained somewhat embarrassedly.

Having died more than 2000 times in six months, Ike felt he had set a record for the most deaths.

Land from:"……"

Lu Li really wanted to grab the other person's shoulders and question Ike about whether he had a title called Time Assassin.

However, the fact that the power of ideals could actually reverse the timeline was somewhat unexpected.

Lu Li thought of the future god Milton, who was currently freeloading at his home.

Normally, Milton should also have control over time, and in terms of the weight of control over time, Milton should be stronger than the ideal dragon.

Lu Li remembered that Ekaterina had introduced the power of ideals, although the ideal place of each ideal messenger was somewhat different.

But this kind of idealistic power of Ike is the first time it has appeared, at least it has never appeared in human historical documents.

But one thing cannot be denied: Ike's power of idealism is so strong that it is somewhat unadorned.

It's at least stronger than the few ideal messengers he knows. This is a cheat code, one of the best among all cheat codes.
