"Then I recommend this Storm Thorn. Although it is an ordinary thorn when it is not blooming, when it blooms it is as turbulent as the waves in the storm, and it can survive with water."
At first, Lamar thought that Ian was the Viscount who had something to do and asked him to come over. However, he thought that the other person had been recuperating in the past few days, and when he saw Elan outside, he realized that Ian, the workaholic in his eyes, was actually
There is also the daily life of playing with my younger brother.
He walked into the store while Ian recalled last night's dream.
In Hive Dream, although those six years were skipped, he still vaguely had the memory of Lamar taking care of Elan.
And it's very rare, not because of him, but just because of Elan.
Is it because Lamar himself is also a refugee orphan from the Red people, so he feels pity for Elan?
Or maybe it means that Elan is very fond of him when it comes to appreciating flowers and plants?
In any case, the other party is indeed not a bad person.
Lamar's true form inheritance 'Wolf Hunter' actually has quite a lot of potential. Above it, there are 'Lion Hunter' and 'Dragon Hunter' - which already have the potential of the third level, enough to dominate the entire world.
Walking on the continent.
The Viscount's selection of his subordinates was actually quite good. He was very considerate in this regard and managed Harrison Port as his hometown.
"After all, this place is already equivalent to the Viscount's hometown."
Lamar came out with a row of long flower pots, which were a group of blooming storm thorns. As he said, the flowers of the storm thorns were like the waves and wind in the storm, with clusters of white petals clustered together.
, exudes a light and elegant fragrance, which is somewhat similar to laurel, and somewhat similar to the freshness after a heavy rain. This is a plant unique to coastal cities. The ancients used it to predict storms.
"Is there another storm?"
Lamar was also a little surprised. He didn't expect the flowers to bloom so luxuriantly. Elan was naturally very happy. The little boy opened his eyes wide and stared at the group of white flowers with an "Oh" - he immediately turned his head and held Elan's hand tightly.
En's hand, and before Elan could say the words 'want to buy', Ian said in advance: "I want to pay the bill."
"Actually, you can look at it more."
Lamar said with a smile, but he also noticed Elan's excited and joyful expression, so he placed the pot of storm bramble in its place: "It blooms so lushly, which means that a storm is about to come."
"And this time it's not an anomaly caused by the maze, but a precursor to the rainy season."
It's a pity that although Ian is a prophet, he can't "predict the weather" that ordinary prophets can easily do - unless he raises a desert weasel that is extremely afraid of water.
Only by living can we know whether it will rain in the future.
After buying the flowers, Ian left the flower shop with Ellan, who was jumping up and down and obviously very happy.
Lamar smiled and waved to them, then went back to continue pruning the flowers.
Port Harrison is not a particularly large city, and is mainly composed of several major bloodlines, such as the White People and the Red People, which mainly represent the bloodlines of exiles and refugees from other countries. They are closely united around Viscount Grant.
Yes, they are still the blood descendants of knights and members of the immigration group brought by old Viscount Harrison.
However, decades have passed and this city has become the hometown of a new generation. Even the Viscount himself has children who will take root in this land.
Everyone lives in this city.
Ian even had some suspicions that the reason why the Viscount was able to cross the threshold between the second energy level and the third energy level and successfully conceive a mind-light body after taking the magic potion... was related to the birth of his child.
After all, if we say that going from the first energy level to the second energy level requires some hard conditions in terms of physical body and source matter.
Then from the second energy level to the third energy level, it involves the category of "coordination of body and soul, unity of body and soul" between the body and soul.
The next day, as Lamar said.
The rain did come.
April 27, Terra 773, noon.
Master Gosei and Isengard are preparing to return to the imperial capital.
A bolt of lightning swung through the sky shrouded in dark clouds, illuminating the entire city in white, and then merged into the lightning rod of the alchemy workshop.
In the pouring rain, Ian was saying goodbye to the old man and young man who were preparing to leave in front of the carriage.
They had just finished the farewell luncheon held by the Viscount. The Viscount himself had just left. Now Ian was called alone by Master Gosei to give his last instructions before saying goodbye.
"The latest small laboratory equipment in the Imperial City will arrive in about a few days, as well as the fairy materials that Yisen said he would give you. Professionals from the Platinum and Iridium Workshop will be delivered to your studio in three days at the latest.
"
Above the sky, black waves of clouds rolled, and the intermittent noises in the living area behind him were quickly swallowed up by the noise of the rain, but the old man's voice was extremely clear: "And all the materials we left behind in the Platinum Iridium Workshop belong to
What you have - it should probably have been delivered to your store by now, please check it carefully."
Noticing Ian's expression, Master Gosei shook his head and said: "You're welcome, you deserve that, and to be honest, compared to your credit, those Warcraft materials are far from enough."
"I haven't had time to communicate with you these days, but remember, Ian, both Isengard and I are grateful for your help."
"I believe in your talent and ability more than anyone else, but I still want to tell you that you are a good boy... You already have a lot to do, so you don't need to pay too much attention to our affairs."
There is something in Master Gosei's words. He knew that Ian was a disciple of Hilliard, so he warned Ian not to go too deep into the affairs behind Isengard regarding the Earthkeeper Axel - he also knew that Ian was
Viscount Grant recommended becoming a knight watcher, so I was worried.
"I have made my own decision, thank you, Master."
Ian nodded slightly. He could understand the old man's good intentions, but for him, ordinary choices could not break the deadlock. Only more dangerous and more profitable options made sense.
"...Well, I probably understand."
Master Gosei paused his cane. He somewhat understood what Ian was thinking, but he still felt that the boy was a little confident.
But he also understood that this kind of self-confidence could not be exhorted, so he could only sigh: "So, do you have anything you want to ask me? I will take advantage of the last opportunity to answer your questions in as much detail as possible."
"have."
Ian asked without hesitation: "I want to know the relationship between self-source essence, source seed and natural spiritual energy."
"Or to put it more clearly, what is the point of using 'natural psychic energy' in the second energy level?"
"good question!"
Master Gosei nodded heavily. He glanced at Isengard, who was thoughtful but still a little confused. He couldn't help but touched the other person's head: "It seems that you have hit that hurdle... Of course, you
I must know it, but you just want to know the latest research results."
Ian nodded silently. Hilliard did tell him some precautions back then, but he also told him that today's sublimation skills are changing with each passing day. Although he is at the top, he can no longer keep up with the low-level skills.
Last time.
After all, he is already at the fifth energy level, and these little things have nothing to do with him.
"From ordinary people to the first energy level, what is needed is the source seed. Use the source seed to absorb the source matter in the food, convert it into its own source matter, and then convert the source matter into sublimated organs, solidifying various special powers in
in your own body.”
After thinking for a while, Master Gesai raised his hand, and the invisible wind condensed into a vortex in mid-air, sucking the surrounding rain into it: "The vortex is the source seed, and the rainwater is the source material you absorb, and the first energy level
The key point of the entire stage of practice is to condense the rainwater into ice."
"Ordinary people mix food, use materials from World of Warcraft, and carve out the structure of sefirot on the ice, simulating the inscriptions and natural fields, so that their sesame can also have attributes and functions - the so-called 'sephiroth organ' is made of
The sefirot simulates the natural psychic field and provides organs with attributes for your sefirot, and the so-called 'enhanced organs' are to use the sefirot to simulate inscriptions to obtain the power of various magical functions."
"The stronger the ice, the harder it is to carve inscriptions and structures, but it's also more stable."
Ian nodded slightly. All this is exactly what Hilliard said. This is why the first energy level needs a solid foundation. If the foundation is not solid, the 'ice' will be destroyed under the subsequent impact of the source material.
Melted and unable to load higher-level structures.
Therefore, at each energy level, practitioners will try to optimize the structure of their own source material, reinforcing the 'ice' as the base, that is, the source material again and again.
Until the end, at the fifth energy level, the ice condenses into steel, which becomes an almost eternal existence. Even if the spirit dies, the body can still survive.
"Solidizing water into stronger ice, shaping your own shape, and then carving and carving the ice to echo the natural psychic field. This is the most important thing about the first level of 'spiritual enlightenment'."
"Because the first energy level is just a simulation of Warcraft and nature, it is a kind of imitation, so the most important thing is to ensure the stability of the structure in the body. Once too much source material is used, it will damage the root, causing your sublimation organs to degenerate, and you can only slow down.
Repair slowly."
Master Gosei concluded that he closed his eyes at this moment and then opened them again: "The second energy level, Ninghui, is related to the soul, and it is also the process of converting 'imitation' and 'virtual' into 'real'."
"Ian."
The old man stared at the young man and said, "What do you think the soul is?"
"The organ that assists our thinking."
Ian replied thoughtfully, thinking of what Hilliard had said to him back then, about the dialectic between falsehood and truth, and a thought flashed through his mind.
He raised his head and said suddenly: "It does not exist, it is false and illusory - but it can have real effects!"
