That's why he didn't answer immediately just now, and hesitated for a moment whether to tell the truth to Allen.

thought Eli.

Out of selfishness, when Alan first handed him the Sword of Hall, he did not take the initiative to reveal this layer of details. As a result, the other party finally learned about it from others.

【yes. 】Eli said,【I knew it when I was looking at that notebook. 】

After talking about the undead, he turned his head slightly, and found that he didn't dare to face the disappointment that might appear in the eyes of human beings—he felt that Allen had every reason to be disappointed, because he had indeed deliberately deceived the other party, so that Allen would not be able to escape without a trace. He was given the Sword of Hor without knowing it.

He took advantage of the other party's ignorance.

Allen was silent for a while after hearing the words.

Eli's annoyance deepened in this silence: [I'm sorry for hiding you, I just...]

- just what?

The words stopped here, and Eli himself hadn't figured out the motive, and of course he couldn't explain it to others in an orderly manner.

Just when he was in a dilemma, he caught a glimpse of Alan moving from the corner of his eye.

The black-haired youth didn't show any disappointment in his eyes, and his expression looked okay, and there seemed to be some... understand?

"It's okay, I see." Alan said with a clear expression.

- What do you know?

Eli asked back in his heart, but he didn't make a sound. He looked at Alan and felt that the other party's "knowing" might be different from what he thought.

Then I heard Alan say again: "You are just afraid of embarrassing me, aren't you?"

The black-haired young man was serious and eloquent, and felt that he had found the real motive of the undead to do so.

Just imagine, an item with an ambiguous meaning behind it is sent to you as a gift by someone else, and the gifter is a same-sex friend who has no knowledge of the ambiguous meaning. This gift is exactly what you need right now. .

If the ambiguous meaning is revealed rashly, both parties will be embarrassed at the same time. Not to mention, whether to accept this gift or not has become an extremely tangled issue.

Allen felt that Eli chose to keep a secret at that time, probably out of fear of embarrassment for both parties.

He told Eli his analysis point by point, hoping to convey his understanding as best as possible.

Eli, who was "understood", had nothing to say for a while, and after listening obediently, he almost felt that this was the case.

Anyway, I couldn't give a more reasonable explanation. After thinking about it for a while, Eli nodded for Alan's analysis: [Almost... that's the reason. 】He finally added,【I'm sorry. 】

"If it were me, I would hesitate to say it." Allen said, "It's okay."

That's the end of this topic.

Eli breathed a sigh of relief.

Allen didn't notice his little relaxing movement, and only looked at the small stack of books he had just carried: "Where are you? What did you find?"

Getting back to the topic, the undead quickly put away his miscellaneous thoughts, turned back to the stack of books he found, flipped through them, picked out a certain book, and handed it to Allen: [Take a look. 】

The items in hand immediately attracted Allen's attention.

The black back cover is as gloomy as the night, and if you rub it carefully, you can feel the silver embossed dark lines printed on the cover.

This back cover style made Allen feel quite familiar. After thinking for a moment, he opened the portable space.

Pulling out the invitation card from the Val family from the space, Allen put the invitation card and the cover together, and found that the two were exactly the same from the color matching to the dark pattern.

[This is an experiment record book. 】Eli also noticed the similarity in appearance between the two, 【If this really belongs to the Val family, Alan, can you take me with you when you visit the Val family on weekends? 】

Knowing that Eli is not a character who will trouble others casually, Allen did not open the notebook immediately: "Have you read the content?"

【seen it already. ] Eli said, 【There are no additional runes on it, so it can be opened directly. 】

As he said that, the finger of the undead tapped on the cover, indicating that the black-haired young man can open the notebook directly, and his tone through the spiritual connection became serious: [This records a "human undead conversion experiment". 】

Human undead conversion experiment?

Allen was startled, and quickly opened the notebook.

This experimental record book seemed to be a breakthrough, allowing them to finally grasp the first thread that might be able to unravel the thread ball amidst the mysteries entwined with various questions.

……

"On x month x day of x year, during the third phase of rejection, the test subject died."

The record stops here.

The contents of the entire experiment record book are related to an experiment that attempts to transform the undead into humans. There are nine experimental subjects recorded, and they belong to different race branches.

All of the experimental subjects volunteered to become experimental subjects, and all experiments ended in failure.

The last night race experimental body lasted the longest, but also died in the penultimate stage.

If this is really an experiment led by the Vaal family...

Allen frowned.

Originally, it was just the patriarch of the Chengwaer family who went to visit as a guest, but now this visit has become a must.

Allen assured Eli: "I will definitely find a way to take you with me."

How to find a good reason to bring Eli to visit Val's house, this matter did not bother them for too long, because the day after finding Lawrence's notebook and experiment notebook from the old library, Herbert came over with a strange look Handed an invitation to the undead.

【Give me? 】Eli was very surprised. He originally thought that the other party came for Alan.

When he didn't see Alan around, Herbert snorted: "I hope it's not for you, too."

The demon boy pulled his face and said angrily: "But it is indeed for you. Father sent an attendant to rush it over night, and told me to deliver it to you."

Seeing that Herbert was as puzzled as he was, Eli accepted the invitation, thanked the unwilling party, and then turned to look at Alan.

The black-haired young man shook his head lightly, indicating that he also didn't know what Patriarch Vaal meant.

"Anyway." After slandering his father's inexplicable behavior, Herbert cleared his throat, "After my class is over on Friday evening, I will come to look for you, and my father said that he will send an envoy to bring us back together. manor."

"It's work."
