Chapter 223 Cao Renwen’s gift, red scales!

"By the way, Aunt Xiao, did Dean Cao come to me just for the mega evolution?"

Lin Rui looked at the scenery passing by outside the window and couldn't help but ask.

"what?"

However, Xiao Yun didn't hear Lin Rui's question at all.

From the beginning till now, her mind has been always thinking about the ambiguous scene just now.

Lin Rui turned to look at Xiao Yun, saw the blush on her face, and grabbed Xiao Yun's hand on the gear lever.

"Aunt Xiao, are you okay?"

"No, it's okay."

Xiao Yun pulled her hand out, put it on the steering wheel and said.

At this time, Lin Rui continued to ask: "What does Dean Cao want to talk to me about?"

This time, Xiao Yun heard Lin Rui's question clearly, and said, "I don't know what it is specifically, but it should be related to mega evolution."

……

Xiao Yun drove at full speed and soon the car drove into the gate of Longke Institute.

After getting off the car, Xiao Yun took Lin Rui directly to Cao Renwen's office.

Xiao Yun knocked on the door.

"Come in."

After getting Cao Renwen's permission, Xiao Yun pushed open the door.

"Dean Cao, Lin Rui is here."

Seeing the people coming, Cao Renwen immediately stood up and walked quickly to the door to welcome the two people in.

"Xiao Lin is here, come on, come on, please take a seat."

"Hello, President Cao." Lin Rui greeted respectfully.

Although Lin Rui has been an academician of the Long Academy of Sciences for half a year, this is the first time he has seen this big shot of the Long Academy of Sciences in person.

In his impression, Lin Rui felt that Cao Renwen should be the kind of scientific research talent with gray hair, wearing reading glasses, and having a literary temperament.

But Lin Rui didn't expect that Cao Renwen was much younger than he imagined, and Cao Renwen's attitude towards him was too enthusiastic.

After they sat down, Cao Renwen's assistant poured them tea.

"Come, have some tea."

Although Lin Rui doesn't like drinking tea, he still has to pretend to like it at this time.

Lin Rui picked up the teacup in front of him and took a sip, then exclaimed: "Good tea, good tea!"

"Oh, Xiaolin knows the tea ceremony at such a young age?"

Hearing Lin Rui say this, Cao Renwen's eyes immediately lit up and he asked.

Lin Rui was stunned when he heard this. How could he know anything about tea ceremony? This tea tasted very bitter and was not as delicious as the Happy Fat House Water.

So he said, "President Cao, please forgive me for making fun of you. I don't know anything about the tea ceremony, but I think this tea has a sweet aftertaste, so it must be the best tea."

Hearing Lin Rui's praise, Cao Renwen burst into laughter.

"Just based on your words, you are much better than many people."

The two chatted casually, and then Cao Renwen changed the subject and got straight to the point.

"Xiaolin, when you discovered mega evolution, did you notice other changes that Pokémon would undergo after mega evolution?"

"The changes I'm talking about are not just changes in appearance."

"Have."

Lin Rui knew that as the research on mega evolution deepened, some things would be discovered sooner or later.

Rather than waiting for the results after multiple tests, it would be better for him to say it earlier.

So Lin Rui spoke directly: "Mega evolution can not only change the appearance of Pokémon and improve the combat ability of Pokémon, but most importantly, it can change its attributes and characteristics."

"Of course, not all Pokémon's attributes and characteristics will change, but most will."

"Take Charizard for example. After evolving into X-Charizard, its attributes will change from Fire and Flying to Fire and Dragon, and its special feature will also become Hard Claws."

Then, Lin Rui gave examples of different Pokémon.

Cao Renwen nodded continuously while listening to Lin Rui's explanation.

Obviously, what Lin Rui said was basically consistent with the information they already had.

At this time, Cao Renwen asked again: "I heard that Zhao Wushuang had contacted you. Did he want you to join Dawn?"

"Forehead!"

Lin Rui was stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect that Cao Renwen would also know about this.

But if you think about it carefully, it doesn't seem difficult for Cao Renwen to know these things given his social status.

So he admitted generously: "Yes, Zhao Guanjun has already contacted me, and I have already agreed."

"Confused!"

Unexpectedly, after hearing that Lin Rui had agreed to Zhao Wushuang, Cao Renwen slapped his thigh and said that Lin Rui was confused.

"What's wrong, President Cao?" Lin Rui felt very confused.

Cao Renwen looked at Lin Rui and spoke earnestly.

"Xiao Lin, you have an absolute talent in the field of scientific research. Your future should be to be an outstanding scientific researcher, not a trainer."

"I admit that young people of your age aspire to become a great trainer, but scientific research is the foundation of national development."

"Our scientific research community is in urgent need of excellent backup forces like you!"

After hearing this, Lin Rui finally understood.

The purpose of Cao Renwen looking for him was to snatch someone away.

This is not surprising. After all, it was Lin Rui who discovered mega evolution. Based on this alone, his position in the scientific research community is unshakable.

"President Cao, I..."

Lin Rui was about to say something, but was quickly interrupted by Cao Renwen.

Cao Renwen walked to his desk and took out a wooden box from the drawer.

Then Cao Renwen returned to Lin Rui with the wooden box and handed it to Lin Rui.

"Dean Cao, what is this?"

"Open it and take a look."

Cao Renwen didn't say what was inside, he just asked Lin Rui to open it and take a look himself.

As soon as Lin Rui opened it, he saw a red scale.

[Red scales: emitting a fiery red glow, these are scales shed from the red Gyarados. Using them on Gyarados may produce unexpected effects.]

Red scales!

It's actually red scales!

Others may not know the function of this red scale, but Lin Rui, as a reborn person, knows the purpose of this red scale.

In the game, this red scale is an important item for taming the red Gyarados.

Only by getting it can you summon the red Gyarados and capture it.

But what is the use of red scales in reality?

And what does the system prompt mean?

Using it on Gyarados will produce unexpected effects.

What are the unexpected effects?

Could it be that Gyarados turns into a red Gyarados?

Isn't this too unscientific?

Lin Rui has heard of artificial Pokémon. Mewtwo and Attribute: Empty are both artificial Pokémon.

But this was the first time he had heard of an artificial shiny Pokémon.

However, whether it was true or not, he was ready to give it a try.

What if it's true?

Then he would have a red Gyarados.

That’s a red Gyarados, so cool.

In some ways, the red Gyarados is even more handsome than the white Gengar.

"I got this by chance, and now I'm giving it to you, hoping it will be helpful to you."

Cao Renwen said with a smile.

"Do you really want to give it to me?"

"Thank you so much, President Cao."

Lin Rui immediately put the wooden box away happily.
