Chapter 611 Only happy people can understand (5600, second update)
The soft female voice is like a gentle woman, apologizing to her child's friends for her child's adventure.
This is obviously the voice of the King of the Mountain. It seems that Xiou is indeed right. Recently, he is a mother who wants to raise a boy.
Dragons and fairies are really convenient creatures.
【It can be me】
Ian thought so, and then faced the real dragon's inquiry, he responded with rather strange words: "It depends on whether you need it, Your Majesty"
【unnecessary】
The soft female voice was smiling: [It was the efforts of everyone from the Huaiguang Rescue Team that rescued my child Xiou, there will be no second explanation]
【Anyway, thank you.】
Turning his head, the Mountain King looked to the other side - the Dragon Worship Cult, or the team of mountain people had arrived. They had been waiting for Xiou's awakening, but now the Mountain King had arrived in person.
, they naturally came in fear, knelt down and bowed their heads to pay homage to the king.
Ian even saw a few familiar figures. In addition to Pansha, the successor of Elder Manya, there were also several ascended mountain people whom he had seen among the mountain people.
But now is not the time to say hello.
"King, we..." Pansha, the leader, swallowed before he dared to speak, but was interrupted mid-sentence.
[It’s not your fault, it’s Feiyandi who has a plot against us. They are planning it secretly, and we can only deal with it]
Although the King of the Mountain did not reprimand on the surface, but comforted them, he did not let them get up.
Although it was indeed a sneak attack and assassination, the response of the Dragon Worship Cult was indeed not very good, especially until the end, it was Ian and the Huaiguang rescue team who rushed into the subspace maze to rescue Xiou, and they were first attacked by a group of phantom armies and
The demonic beast blocked it, and then was disturbed by the aftermath of the fourth-level strongman's battle, running around.
Without them, Ian and others would definitely encounter more enemies and slow down their speed. This cannot be said to be useless, but in general...
It's time to push and push.
At this moment, Redemption Light and Yingguang also took out the crystal prism that stored Xio's soul.
"Mom... mother..."
Xio had already woken up when the Mountain King arrived just now, but Xiaolong, who was a little afraid of his mother's scolding, didn't dare to show up on his own initiative - but this time it was impossible for him not to show up, so Redemption and Yingguang brought him out.
[Let’s talk about it when we get home]
The King of the Mountain glared at Xio's soul crystal fiercely - if he were an ordinary person, he would definitely think that this meant 'I'll deal with you when I get home'.
But maybe Ian is familiar with dragons, or people with awkward personalities, so he could only hear the meaning of 'go home and have a good rest first, don't force yourself to talk to me now'.
It's a pity that Xio is obviously a dragon, but he doesn't understand dragons as well as Ian.
He obviously misunderstood the previous meaning, so he didn't dare to say anything after letting out a low whimper.
——Family of origin problems are indeed the main cause of 85% of the world’s problems, and incomprehensible communication accounts for the remaining 15%.
Ian thought so.
Xio's soul crystal was retrieved by the Mountain King with the wind and swallowed into his mouth. Then, the Mountain King also asked the Dragon Worship Cult team to stand up.
[You just go back with the Huaiguang rescue team and follow their instructions]
The real dragon gave such an order, and the team of the Dragon Worship Cult naturally obeyed.
After that, the King of the Mountain didn't stay long.
He was very worried about whether Xio's soul had been poisoned by Fei Yandi and other researchers in Avak's laboratory, so he took off directly and left without caring about Archduke Thorin, Mikael and Moser from the beginning to the end.
The look in the eyes of these three fourth-level powerhouses looked as if they were nothing.
And these three fourth-level powerhouses, except for Mikael, did not want to cause trouble and had a good argument with the mountain king as to why their partner Feiyandi set up a trap to kidnap Xio.
Although theoretically speaking, it was Xio who took the initiative to attack Fei Yan Di’s lair in the Western Territory of Grand Duke Thorin... But who told you that Fei Yan Di was also causing trouble in the Baisen Mountains? For the fourth energy level, don’t expect to be able to
To be honest, this kind of thing cannot be explained clearly, and the only option is to fight with fists - and the Tianhong King of Feiyandi has already withdrawn, why do they want to take this responsibility for no reason?
The turmoil caused by the arrival of the real dragon quickly subsided. After announcing that they accepted the jurisdiction of the Huaiguang Rescue Team, the Dragon Worshiping Team began to set up camps around the area in an orderly manner, while Pansha and others except for the
In addition to a grateful look, he also pretended to be unfamiliar with Ian.
Theoretically speaking, everyone who needs to know knows about Ian's relationship with the Dragon Cult, but it's better not to reveal any flaws.
In addition, Pansha observed the attitude of the rescue team and the attitude of the Mountain King, and thought that the Huaiguang Rescue Team was the reinforcements brought in by Ian.
Although it's a little subtly different, it's actually true. Pansha's ability to observe words and emotions is indeed quite powerful.
Moreover, without the Huaiguang Rescue Team, Ian would have to put in a lot of effort just to conceal his identity.
It is precisely because of this ability that although Pansha and Ian did not speak, they had a tacit understanding.
After Ian patted Adalbert on the shoulder, said his name, and asked him to return to the team, the gray-haired and golden-eyed researcher was at a loss.
Afterwards, Pansha, who had reacted, strode forward, gave Adalbert a big hug, and shouted, "Welcome back to the team, brother!" When the dead king with gray hair and golden eyes was completely confused
.
"Thank you, knight."
"You're welcome, stranger."
During the encrypted phone call between Ian and Pansha, Adalbert naturally integrated into the Dragon Cult team.
At Ian's signal, Pansha personally took the researcher Dead Lord, who did not dare to say a word the whole time, to prepare the camp, as if they were close partners who had known each other for more than ten years, and the young man was very interested in Adlbert.
Te's eyes turned a blind eye as he begged for help.
——Me, what should I do next?!
——Just stay there and wait for the Dragon Worship Cult to take you to Nanling, which is my hometown. Don’t worry, I will contact you.
After that, Ian entered the stronghold together with the Light-bearing Priest and his party.
"I really didn't expect to see you here."
Sister Yingguang had some doubts in her heart when she saw Ian. She once again felt a strange sense of familiarity, but she couldn't grasp this feeling... Her talent was extremely good, otherwise she wouldn't be valued by the mentor of Redemption.
, brought out from the surrounding area of the Holy Mountain for cultivation.
But just relying on feeling, it is impossible to find out the similarities between the Knights of the Glen and Ian - no joke, it is not those special people, or Ian himself took the initiative to expose the relevant flaws, and his disguise is not good for him.
For the vast majority of people, they are perfect.
"After all, I am a patrol knight and I always have to perform tasks."
Ian replied with a smile, and Adlbert, who was still observing this direction, widened his eyes again.
——Ian is actually a patrol knight?! Even if the most dangerous place is the safest place, is it too dangerous?
And what kind of genius does it take to be a patrol knight and have a laboratory, or to be a second-level ascendant?!
Ian noticed Adelbert's eyes, but didn't pay much attention.
——Are you surprised now? You will be surprised by many things in the future!
Ian asked again about the current situation of the Dragonite Sister - but the answer was quite surprising.
Since the incident in Leian Territory, Sister Yingguang has chosen to station in Leian Territory and work with the mountain people to take charge of the security of Leian City and surrounding areas. After all, Baron Leian is dead and all kinds of monsters are still raging.
Biological warfare has only been partially contained, but not completely suppressed.
Without the military force of the second-level nobles stationed there, it would be very difficult for ordinary people to deal with the attacks of all kinds of ferocious monsters.
Sister Yingguang herself would actually find it very difficult. Therefore, Archbishop Tianyan of Nauman City considered and decided that because this incident was exposed and solved by the Huaiguang Church, the Huaiguang Church would also
During the period when An Ling has no lord, he is responsible for the safety of the place.
In other words, Sister Yingguang and even the good partner of Huijian Redemption are likely to be stationed in the Ryan Territory!
"What the hell, they also know that I am going to become the lord of Ryan Territory?"
It couldn't be a coincidence. Without even thinking about it, Ian knew that this was caused by the so-called 'witnesses' of the Huaiguang Church.
This was not to observe him closely, Ian just ate his sword directly
In addition to Yingguang, an acquaintance, Lübeck, who should now be called the "Red Blade", also shook hands with Ian happily.
"Viscount Grant and Presbyterian Purder will be very happy."
He noticed that through the secret method of worshiping the Dragon Cult, Ian had perfectly controlled the strength around the first level. He couldn't help but praise: "As expected, next year you will be able to advance to the second level, surpassing Pu De and me."
Elder... When I first met you, you were so young. I didn't expect that eighty-nine years later, you would go higher than us."
To be honest, Ian still remembers the first time he met Lübeck, which was also the first time he officially met Viscount Grant. The red-haired mountain man bent on revenge looked like a ghost and his head was gloomy and depressed.
His temperament is incomparable to strangers.
But what about now? Today's Hong Ren has a resolute expression, a strong and powerful figure, and the look in his green eyes no longer has the slightest hint of gloom, but is similar to Hui Jian's, a kind of majestic justice from the heart.
Not to mention the words and deeds... Lubeck was definitely a good boy before. You have become so awesome. I think back when you were a little older, I never imagined that you would be where you are today!
'How can this kind of commercial mercenary cliché be as sophisticated as it is now?
Therefore, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
——The Huaiguang Church...really turns ghosts into humans.
Although he may be suspected of some relatively taboo methods, after seeing the Dead Lord and the Dead River Arms, as well as the various operations he will perform in the future on the path of spiritual disaster, Ian no longer feels any sense of the Huaiguang Church's methods.
Scared.
At most it is just the death of a newborn, what is there to be afraid of? It is not crazy at all, it can even be said to be gentle.
This boy has lived in Terra for sixteen years. This is the change in his brain.jpg
After greeting his acquaintances, Ian tried to use the internal communication system of the Patrol Knights to contact Hua An Mo Feng, Tres and others... The results were all busy.
This is not surprising. After all, when Mikael fought with King Tianhong, the scene was so chaotic. Everyone was looking for a place to take refuge. Now, not long after the battle ended, another King of the Mountain came, and things started to change.
Wave after wave, no one can relax.
In this case, Ian was not in a hurry. He simply stayed at the stronghold of Huaiguang Church and prepared to take a good rest.
After such a fierce subspace exploration battle, he is really a little tired... The load of the power of the dead king is quite heavy. If his true strength is not the dual second energy level and the realm of extremes, like
With a first-level energy like Adelbert's, there may be many side effects.
Ian initially wanted to send Adalbert to the Huaiguang Church, just to ask the Huaiguang Church to help see if there were any sequelae that needed to be solved. Money was not an issue for a researcher of Adalbert's level.
It's really rare in the world.
As for now...it's just one more procedure for the Dragon Worship Sect to send to the Huaiguang Church.
Adlbert didn't know that he had been booked into a professional medical institution for recuperation, and Ian had already recorded this in a memo, then lay on the blanket prepared by the rescue team and looked at the texture of the wood on the ceiling.
Close your eyes slowly.
He needs a real rest to relieve the mental exhaustion caused by many prophetic omens.
Relieve the overly excited and worried heart caused by seeing the future direction.
But, before that.
Ian heard his inner voice again.
【king?】
It was the voice of the dead souls that came from deep within, residing in Ian's body, and recognizing his dead king...
"What's wrong?"
Ian's figure emerged in his soul world. In front of him was a cluster of shadowy white souls. The souls surrounded the young man, but he did not feel afraid, but felt a sense of warmth.
With the completion of revenge and the fulfillment of Ian's promise to the dead souls, they have completely regarded Ian as their king, so they have always stayed in his body, serving the "dead king" at all times.
This is a contract.
【king】
A woman's hazy voice emerged, it was the former carpenter woman. Her voice was a little urgent, but it became gentle under deliberate suppression: "You have fulfilled our wish... although the real culprit is
Grand Duke Thorin, Feiyandi and Lingzhiyuan have not paid the price we want, but we also know...none of this is realistic]
[We... don't understand, Star Prison, or some other disaster. This is too far, too far, we can't understand these things...]
[It is enough that you killed Viscount Awak and the person in charge of this laboratory - so now, it is our turn to fulfill your wish]
[Your Majesty... we... or in other words, we who still have our own souls want to know]
[We want to know your true wishes]
At this moment, all the souls were staring at Ian.
The resentment in the hearts of these souls who died in Avak's laboratory has subsided a lot... They never even thought about seeking revenge from Archduke Thorin from the beginning, because that is absolutely impossible, and thinking about it seems wasteful.
own resentment.
Besides, their direct enemies are the Gnostic Academy, and the souls who regard Fei Yandi and Archduke Thorin as their enemies are all in Adelbert's place.
Therefore, they are now satisfied - the Avak laboratory has completely collapsed, Archduke Thorin has not completed his plan, and everyone in the Gnosis Institute in the laboratory has been killed by Ian.
Now, it's time for them to fulfill their vows.
——They hope that their existence can help.
No one can ignore such sincere emotions.
"He will pay the price. Grand Duke Thorin is also waiting for the day when he pays the price, and I will be his retribution."
Ian looked around at the souls and felt this sincere heart.
He was silent for a while, and then said softly: "As for my real wish... Actually, I have already said it, haven't I?"
Faced with these souls who entrusted their existence to themselves, the young man had no need to lie.
Therefore, Ian raised his head and stared at the high dome of his soul space: "I just want to have a world that is always strange, always fresh, and always has room for progress... It may be a bit embarrassing to say it, but to put it bluntly, I am
A person who is very afraid of the 'end'."
"Even if you haven't finished eating the bowl, you will panic when you see there is nothing in the pot. If you haven't finished reading a book, you will feel scared when you realize that there are not many pages left."
"A planet is so big, not to mention the entire Terra. I haven't even traveled across the empire, but I feel desperate because of the Prison Star Prison five light years away... Sometimes, I also feel strange.
Think about it, what am I worried about?"
"What am I afraid of? Why am I so anxious? Why should I work so hard to gain the possibility of traveling to a distant place?"
Closing his eyes and feeling the sight of the souls, Ian took a deep breath and said calmly: "No. In fact, I didn't try my best at all."
"I just do what I want to do. This is not called desperate. I have never seriously thought about this issue from beginning to end, because for me, this is the meaning of my life. You will ask why you eat black bread
Because there is only black bread and there are no stars in this world, so I can only look for it."
"Dead souls, I don't ask you to understand me, because I am an abnormal person. I am not an ordinary person who can be understood by you, but a lunatic who can be called crazy... I just want to go,
There is no need for any reason or emotion, just like looking up at the stars does not require any excitement at all."
When he said this, Ian even laughed: "Because the stars are there, why do I need reasons and feelings when I look up at the stars? This question is too silly."
"Since there are no stars in the sky, I will take them back."
【We don’t understand...the king】
The dead souls responded blankly: [But we want to understand, king. We can understand the sincerity of this feeling...]
【We...want to understand you】
"Thanks."
And Ian smiled and stretched out his hand to touch those soul bodies.
It feels cold, but not terrible.
Touching his 'people', he said seriously: "Of course you don't understand. This is not your fault, it is my fault."
"There are still many people suffering in this world. They are worried about tomorrow's breakfast, the future of their children, and the harvest of the coming year. Let alone the outcome of mankind after a thousand years, let alone the high sky and starry sky in the distance, and the
Prison Star Prison... They can't even predict how the world will change in a few years. How could they care about such a thing, how could they understand it?"
"Just like you, you were all trying hard to live, but you died inexplicably because of the conflict between the empire and Feiyandi... you died at a loss, and you died at a loss."
"In such a world, no one would want to look up at the sky, because the sun is glaring, because there is work at hand, because making money to support the family, because tomorrow is uncertain, and because going to the sky is indeed boring."
After a pause, the young man said softly: "That is not romantic at all, but a long emptiness, endless nothingness."
"You are right. You are living a down-to-earth life. Why do you have to understand me?"
Saying this, Ian seemed to be saying to the souls, and also to himself: "Inaga II was too anxious about many things, and there were many things he did wrong... But there is only one thing, I think.
That’s right.”
His tone gradually became firmer: "We must let the people learn knowledge... let you live a happy and worry-free life."
"In this way, you will become an alchemist, a stargazer, a sublimator, a person who can think about things that will happen hundreds of thousands of years ago, and a person who is bored enough to look at the stars."
"My people...you are the only one who is happy."
"Only in order to become someone who can understand my heart's wishes."
