Lion Faction and Carving Faction

The sudden shout startled Fang Li, who turned his head to look at the source of the sound.

The next second, a face came into Fang Li's view.

It was less than five centimeters away from the Fang Li.

Fang Li was startled.

However, the other party didn't care at all, and still brought his face close to Fang Li's, making a sound of great joy.

"I never expected to run into you in a place like this, what a pleasant surprise!"

The girl's tone was lively and cheerful, but it also carried a frivolousness that disregarded how others felt. She didn't care at all that it was their first time meeting, and simply because of her own interest, she showed an unusual closeness to Fang Li Fang Li.

Faced with this girl, another girl with brown skin stepped forward and spoke in a scolding tone.

"Einest, what are you doing all of a sudden?"

Compared to the girl in the white robe, the girl with brown skin was clearly a very serious and methodical person. In stark contrast, she was not frivolous at all, but rather quite meticulous and earnest.

To this, the girl called Einest just smiled happily and said to the brown-skinned girl, "Camilla, come and see too! Is this the guy from the Boundary Dragon Clan? I think his name is Fang Li?"

"Fang Li?" The brown-skinned girl called Camilla raised an eyebrow, then turned her gaze to Fang Li, muttering to herself, "So that's it, it's you."

Is it unbelievable?

Despite Einest's frivolous nature and Camilla's seriousness, both of them looked at Fang Li with the same emotion at this moment.

That was scrutiny.

As if observing a person, or examining a rare work of art, Einest and Camilla Fang Li, as if collecting some kind of information.

This is not a strange thing.

Although the two girls in front of them had completely different personalities, the uniforms they were wearing were those of the Alcant Research Institute.

In other words, both girls were students at the Alcant Research Institute.

Students at an academy where research is the primary focus, and technical personnel far outnumber combat personnel.

The two girls in front of me are clearly the so-called technicians.

For people like them, perhaps everyone is someone they observe?

Not to mention, these two girls are not ordinary technicians.

"I see." Fang Li subtly took a few steps back, distancing himself from Einest, then smiled at the two of them and spoke indifferently.

"It's quite surprising that representatives from the Carving Faction and the Lion Faction of the Alcant Research Institute would appear in the competition area of the ' Phoenix Star Martial Festival.'"

Fang Li's words left Camilla speechless, while Einest smiled admiringly and said, "What? Young man, do you know us?"

"I'd say there are few people who don't know you, right?" Fang Li looked at Einest and said, "In the Alcant Research Institute, which is full of factions, the Carving Faction and the Lion Faction are very special. As representatives of these two schools, who wouldn't know you?"

In some ways, the Alcant Research Institute is very similar to the Jielong Seventh Academy.

That is, there are many factions within the academy.

The difference lies in the fact that the factions within the Jielong Seventh Academy are called sects, and they are for the purpose of practicing martial arts, while the numerous factions within the Alcant Research Institute are basically for research purposes.

Among these, the Carving Faction and the Lion Faction are the most prominent.

The Carving Faction focuses on developing lifelike figures, i. e., mechanical dolls. The school's philosophy is that it hopes to eventually develop self-regulating lifelike figures that are comparable to humans.

The Lion Faction focuses on developing the Imperial Armament, and their ideology is to create Imperial Armament that is highly versatile and can be easily used by anyone.

Both of these factions are among the most powerful and influential within the Alcant Research Institute, especially the Lion Faction, which is the largest faction within the Alcant Research Institute.

The representatives of these two factions are Einest and Camilla.

—Einest Junai.

The representative of the Carving Faction, renowned for her keen observation and powerful calculation abilities, was a world-class genius research expert. It was her appearance that enabled the originally weak Carving Faction to rapidly grow and eventually become the leader in the field.

—Camilla Parrett.

The representative of the Lion Faction is known for his meticulous work style and unwavering commitment to his ideals. He is also an outstanding research expert. The Imperial Armament developed by his team was used by the champion duo of the previous "Phoenix Star Martial Festival," who defeated Cecily and Zhao Hufeng in the finals to win the championship.

In this way, it would be impossible for these two people not to become famous.

"Compared to you two, I don't think I'm anything special," Fang Li said with a smile to Einest and Camilla, as if he were talking about someone else. "I wonder how you two come to know such Mumei as me?"

Upon hearing this, Camilla aside, Einest chuckled slyly, bringing his face close to Enestan's once more, his eyes crinkling into crescent shapes, and uttered these words.

"Come on, please don't say that. After all, we do know about the user who subdued Bō Xié, okay?"

Fang Li immediately raised his eyelids.

Do these two people know about Bō Xié?

However, this is not surprising.

For an academy like the Alcant Research Institute, where technical personnel are generally outstanding, Pure Star Imperial Armament like Bō Xié, which has not found a user for nearly a hundred years and for which even little information on its weaponry has been collected, should be the most suitable research subject, right?

"I've heard that it's Pure Star Imperial Armament that has been circulating among various academies for nearly a hundred years, and no technical team in any of the academies has been able to fully study it, right?"

Einest's eyes lit up, and he bent down, bringing his face close to the sheath at Fang Li's waist that contained Bō Xié's Activation Body, and exclaimed with great curiosity, "I really want to see it, I really want to see it!"

Fang Li couldn't help but frown at such an unconventional personality and style.

Just then, Camilla up.

"Alright, Einest, stop doing things that will arouse suspicion."

Camilla said this, then looked at Fang Li and said coldly, "Although I would like to collect information about such a mysterious existence as Bō Xié, it is, after all, Pure Star Imperial Armament, which is completely different from the philosophy of our Lion Faction. I have little interest in it."
