After Isengard confirmed that Ian's perception ability was fully up to standard, he completely let go.
According to the blond boy, their goal in coming to Harrison Port was to capture this juvenile ‘Zhanhai Crystal Dragon’ and send it into the sea labyrinth around the Imperial Mist Port for protection and breeding.
The Zhanhai Crystal Dragon is not a pure source dragon. Except for mutants, it generally cannot reach the fifth energy level... But if it is allowed to become the master of the labyrinth, it will use the ultra-high-strength psychic energy of the entire labyrinth.
Field cultivation can make it breed fifth-level materials.
It is even possible to cultivate a fifth-level crystallized dragon!
This is the method used by a large force to steadily cultivate high-level Warcraft materials - using a maze that has been completely controlled to breed and catalyze Warcraft!
This is not information that Ian should be able to know, but Isengard doesn't care.
"Although it is said to be a secret, which noble doesn't know? Even ordinary adventurers must know that the major forces use their gold and silver to let them explore the labyrinth with their lives, not just for the materials in the labyrinth and the previous era.
Relics.”
This is indeed well-known confidential information.
The existence of the labyrinth itself is the largest renewable strategic resource for a country and power.
At this moment, Ian also noticed that there was a small inscribed ornament in Isengard's arms, which was reacting to the exchange of sounds between the two parties.
This accessory is dark purple and contains an extremely powerful force that can produce some kind of shield structure... Needless to say, it is another second-level high-level life-saving inscription rare item on Isengard.
Having experienced Wiggers' monitoring, he is naturally very familiar with this situation.
"It seems that Master Gosei has become suspicious of Patrick... no, everyone except himself. I remember that the aura of this jewelry comes from Master Gosei himself, but now it is worn by Ethan.
"
Lowering his eyes, Ian thought thoughtfully: "And now, after knowing my sensing power, the exploration team will soon finalize the plan and set off."
"This is a race against time, not giving any chance to lurkers."
Ian has no intention of getting deeply involved in the overt and covert struggles within the Ellen family, as long as the other party dies before his achievements are realized.
However, he also has a very professional ethics.
When Isengard learned that Ian was in urgent need of a set of professional inscription tools and said that he would immediately send a letter to ask the Nanling headquarters of the Platinum Iridium Workshop in Nauman City to send a set as a reward, Ian began to do his best to help the people in front of him.
This little Kai...this little kind man explained the situation in the sea around Harrison Port.
Almost the whole morning, Ian was explaining to Isengard the current situation around Harrison Port and the South China Sea, including the distribution of Warcraft, special areas, abnormal weather signs, and most importantly, the situation around O'Dell Reef and its connection with the indigenous people.
"The Tide Spirit and the Drumming Spirit are two second-level monsters. Their power in the sea is unmatched, especially as totem spirits that are close to the third energy level and live in the natural psychic field.
, their size and strength are much larger than those of the same kind."
When Ian said this, he put down the paper and pen he was using to explain the terrain and draw the map for Isengard.
His tone was quite serious: "Although I don't know why, the breath of the Zhanhai Crystal Dragon does have the smell of Odell Reef - theoretically speaking, even a real dragon cannot go beyond an entire energy level to fight against the enemy, and that
It is impossible for two giant eels to share their territory."
"This is a danger and anomaly, one of them. The other is a sign of disaster."
He paused and drew a huge circle on the map. Ian's tone became solemn: "The South China Sea Labyrinth has not yet been formed, but there will definitely be a large-scale mutation within twenty to thirty days... and
At the same time, in about three days, the entire Nanling will usher in the first storm of early spring."
"Isengard, you must know that you have been targeted. Coming to Harrison Port this time is the best time to eliminate you. I think that even if it is the emperor's mission, we should wait until the mutation is over and the storm
Think about it after it subsides, otherwise, the more urgent it is now, the more dangerous you will be."
"Dead people have no merit and cannot complete their tasks."
Ian's words were very true, and this was exactly what he had doubted before - the Ellen family seemed to be speeding up like they were rushing to a dead end, and no one was rushing them, so why were they in such a hurry?
Isengard's next words answered the boy's doubts.
"It's not that we don't want to, it's that we can't... Of course we know how to be safer."
At this moment, the blond boy looked helpless. He lowered his head and looked at the simplified map of South Ridge drawn by Ian and the location of O'Dell Reef.
He shook his head and said: "The Zhanhai Crystal Dragon will become active during storms. The turbulent waves and large tides are its most active time points... If you want to capture it, you must do it during the storm."
"It is precisely because of this that we need you, someone who can accurately capture the breath of the crystallized dragon even if there is a storm interference!"
"As for the mutation..."
As he spoke, Isengard stretched out his hand and pressed it on a corner of the map. He sighed: "According to the appraisal of the royal alchemists, this crystal dragon is about to reach the second energy level."
"If it really reaches the second level after the mutation, then it will not be a merit that I can obtain... Apart from other things, except for those great knights who specialize in naval battles, who can catch up with one in the sea?
What about the second-level sea dragon monster?"
"Even if it is really possible, even asking Uncle Grant to drive the etheric weapon is too difficult. We have to wait for the second storm. It is just as dangerous to delay it for too long."
That's the trouble with this mission.
To capture the Zhanhai Crystal Dragon, one must get stuck before the change or between the storms - otherwise, either the dragon cannot be found, or the difficulty increases dramatically.
This is the case.
After informing Ian of the details of the mission and the corresponding intelligence, Isengard planned to leave.
"correct."
Before leaving, this blond boy, who was said to be smart but a bit simple, and said to be approachable but a bit regionally discriminatory, seemed to have thought of something.
He turned around and reminded Ian kindly: "Teacher Gosei gave you his business card, right?"
He said seriously: "Be sure to keep it well!"
"Teacher Gosei's business card can be used to borrow books from the Imperial Capital Library, and can also be used to attend classes at Zhenzhi Academy, Royal Alchemy Academy and Saint Shihagar Academy, and use the school's laboratories... In short, even I am taking exams.
I took several difficult exams to get it!”
Speaking of this, Isengard was even a little envious - he finally understood the level of Ian's talent and ability, and felt ashamed of his previous jealousy: "It is very rare, even in Harrison Port.
You can buy some discounted potions at the Platinum and Iridium Workshop!"
"Master Gosai asked you to say this, right?"
Ian nodded at the shocked expression of the blond boy.
He smiled and was not surprised by this at all: "Don't worry, I know very well how much Master Gosei values me. I really like alchemy very much and I will not be ashamed of my talent."
"If I have the chance, I will go to the imperial capital to visit his old man after I finish my studies."
