Chapter 622: The sun is strong and everything appears (first update, 5200)
Tera 773, October 5.[ 14
The capital of the Setar Empire, late at night.
The lights in the upper city, which stood on a solitary mountain, were bright, and the big shots in the entire empire were unusually busy.
This is the first time since the Dark Moon turmoil.
This afternoon, Grand Duke Thorin announced to the Imperial Capital after he advanced to the fifth level, which really shocked the hearts of many people. And this newly promoted fifth-level powerhouse and the emperor of the empire, guarded the capital.
The clash of wills of Axel the Earthman blew away all the atmosphere over the entire imperial capital. Ren 1
Although Archduke Thorin was almost completely suppressed in this confrontation, he finally left with a harsh word.
But with the help of a mysterious method that is most likely the legacy of Inaga, he has transcended the bloodline restrictions and advanced to the fifth energy level. He can be regarded as having a head-on confrontation with any country and big country in the mainland.
The confidence of equal exchange of forces.
And such a brand new fifth-level person will undoubtedly have a huge impact on the current situation on the continent of Terra.
It is for this reason that the imperial capital never sleeps.
Today, the hole in the atmosphere still exists, and it will take time to recover. Even if there is an imperial force field to isolate the void radiation, in order to avoid sudden changes in the climate of the central plain,
The eldest prince, Carlos Sertal, has already led a team to repair it.
2]
During this period, important figures from various places also arrived in the imperial capital one after another.
A steady stream of information is sent back to the heart of the empire——
The capital of Archduke Thorin, Silvermoon City, has completely turned into a hollow abyss.
This ancient city, its squares and palaces made of white marble, and its spiers and towers with a history of more than four hundred years have all turned into a bottomless pit of darkness.
The pit that goes straight into the center of the earth is extremely deep, with black and white steam rising from it. Standing on the edge of the pit and staring down, you can see through those hazy heat waves.
See the churning magma ocean in the Earth’s mantle.2 15
It was the entrance to the abyss of hell created by the Dead Lord, and the red magma was like an endless river of blood of death.
The entire Silver Moon City sank into the sea of lava. According to reports from intelligence personnel, at that time, the entire Silver Moon City was crowded with people, and citizens supporting Archduke Thorin came from all directions.
Gathered together to listen to their lord's speech - Archduke Thorin signed a contract with everyone present, and all his life and power will be used to protect them, and as
For the price, they will go to the heart of the earth together and establish a kingdom of hell.
When the contract was reached, the silver-blue icy light shot straight into the sky, and the entire city and even the surrounding mountains were shaking. Every street and every majestic building in the Silver Moon City
The buildings and ancient palaces all have dense circuits of inscriptions, forming a vast psychic field.
Then, it sank, falling like lightning, and sank into the deepest part of the earth's mantle.
The mist originating from the magma and underground water system permeates the current Archduke Thorin's domain, turning it into a place of poisonous mist.
It is said that as long as you get close, you can hear the cries of ghosts.
All in all, among those people, Grand Duke Thorin deceived the souls of his people, killed everyone, and used the power of these souls to achieve the third goal for himself.
The road to the five energy levels is paved with stepping stones.
In Isengard's house, the blond boy told Ian in detail about the many pieces of information he heard while listening in the uptown district today.
He looked quite gloating: "To be honest, Ian, this is the first time I have seen so many big shots with nervous faces, especially those around Archduke Thorin.
The expressions of the legion commanders and nobles are really unpredictable. If I hadn’t known about their blood heritage, I would have thought they were chameleons!” 1
"What they said is true, but they are a little timid - if Archduke Thorin really wants to kill them, and the moment he falls out with the empire, they will all be buried with him."
Ian, who was cutting meat, commented: "But it was really huge. When I came back from the experimental base, I saw a row of flying cars and armors flying from the sky.
I don't know if they are urgently transferring troops back to the imperial capital, or if the nobles are on their way.
At this moment, Ian was cooking for himself for the first time in a long time - he was holding a pan in his hand, frying the steak in hot oil, making a pleasant sizzling sound. Ren 4
This kind of mountain cow beef from the Seven Cities Alliance is quite fatty and has a very strong aroma. Ian didn't put any oil in the pot at first, but after roasting it at high temperature,
The fat in the meat will drain out, making the meat fragrant. Sprinkled with spices and salt, it has a simple but satisfying taste.
Today's supper is very simple, just mountain beef steak, baked potatoes and a nut platter.[3]
Hua An and Shuang Die had already started eating. The two goblins were eating pine nuts in unison, with satisfied looks on their faces. They looked like two squirrels.
Ethan also got his share of the steak, cut off a piece and put it into his mouth. The rich aroma of the plump beef and the delicate texture made it really delicious, and the roasted soil on the side
The center of the bean is actually hot cheese. It is crispy on the outside and full of caramel aroma when you bite it. The crispy texture is followed by the milky aroma of cheese. It is really unforgettable.
[12]
Since the ban on solid food was lifted, Isengard has tasted Ian's cooking several times. Every time he tasted it, it was incredible and he couldn't understand what Ian was.
How do you do it? There are so many wonderful ideas about dishes.
With just a simple potato, Ian can combine it with different auxiliary ingredients to make four or five dishes with very different flavors, but all of which are very delicious. This wonderful change is almost like
Alchemy!
55]
And Ian would tell him every time that an alchemist with poor sword skills is not a good cook. Jen 2
As a knight who is proficient in alchemy, it is natural for him to be able to cook——
What nonsense are you talking about!
Even Isengard would complain about Ian: "Am I not an alchemist? I can also do swordsmanship. Why can't I cook?!"
"Is your swordsmanship as good as mine?
1]
Ian's simple reply instantly reminded Isengard of the feeling of being easily crushed during the sparring session between the two, leaving him without any power to refute.
Isengard accompanied Master Gosei to the Uptown District for several meetings this afternoon, and originally planned to come back in the evening to continue improving the armor with Ian.
To be honest, the two weeks of working with Ian on armor development can be said to be the two weeks that Isengard has made the fastest progress in terms of inscription structure and combat medicine.
Ian never hesitates to share knowledge. If Isengard doesn't understand, he will use the simplest examples to explain it. After all, Isengard is also an elite alchemist.
Ian is a magician, and many of his opinions have benefited Ian a lot, especially the Ellen family's colonial experience, which impressed Ian deeply.
There was even a new kind of inspiration——
Compared with armor that is simply a weapon, ether weapons, which are a research and comparison object, may not require a complete metal structure and semi-metal.
Isn’t half-crotch clothing also good?
Or maybe it’s not impossible to put a layer of armor on top of the colonial uniform? Ren 9]
“The fact that Grand Duke Thorin advanced to the fifth level and took Silvermoon City into the mantle of the earth is really too big.
After a late-night snack, Ian exchanged information with Isengard. The blond boy looked confused: "My father is coming over too. He doesn't want to see me, and I don't want to see him either."
Even if we want to get His Majesty Axel’s plans from him, we can’t do it in the imperial capital.”
"I plan to go out with the teacher to attend an alchemist conference in Icewind Valley and hide for a while."
"Ian, do you want to get up? Or stay in the imperial capital?"
Isengard invited.
"As for me, we'll see later." Ian was noncommittal. After hearing that Marquis Ellen would also come to the imperial capital, he couldn't help but be curious about this matter: "So many nobles gathered together."
What are you going to do in the imperial capital? But you are right. Even if you want to understand the thoughts of the defenders, you can't do that in the imperial capital. It's like secretly spying under your nose.
The same plan." 1 mouthful
"Let's have a coordination meeting before all-out war. That's what the teacher said.
Isengard shook his head slightly. His strength was still too low to participate in such an incident: "But as far as I know, this time, all the princes and daughters of the royal family who have the right to inherit will be
I’m back. Even if Grand Duke Thorin didn’t show up like this, I’m afraid something big would have happened.” Seven 4
"Royal family? Is it possible?
Ian raised his eyebrows slightly, and he vaguely thought of a possibility: "Is it the Li Chu?"
"how come?"
Even the political novice Isengard knew that it was impossible. He shook his head and took the last bite of potato cheese: "In terms of the fifth level, His Majesty is still young. What's more?
Moreover, according to tradition, whoever is the strongest is the heir, so it is useless to establish a crown prince. That is to say, in Yanjiang, when the king is not the supreme ruler, it is meaningful to establish a crown prince."
Indeed. Ian thought about it and felt that he might still be limited by the earth's thinking.
What if Terra is not strong enough to establish a reserve? Then we have to replace people. The order brought by the inheritance of the eldest son is not as stable as the order brought by the inheritance of the strong.
solid mouth
But these things have nothing to do with him and Isengard, especially since the latter plans to leave the imperial capital for a while——
Look at the fortune.
[2]
Thinking of this, Ian's eyes lit up with cyan fluorescence. He looked at Isengard, who was also used to Ian's sudden use of psychic powers to observe his surroundings, so he continued
A satisfying late night snack.
In the precognitive vision, Isengard is still dark blue. His strength has indeed improved in recent times, and his sparring with Ian has enhanced his actual combat ability, but he has lost all his strength.
Lianlong's growth is not that fast, and it will take some time for him to settle down before he can advance to the second level.
Apart from this, Isengard's future fortune is considered to be good. However, Ian noticed that his friend's fortune was actually on a downward trend.
This is not a good sign——
Why did it drop?
Ian was a little puzzled, but if he thought about it carefully, leaving the imperial capital indeed meant leaving the academic center circle. He was unable to get the most critical information immediately, and the decline was understandable.
Bar.
He planned to remind Yisen later to pay attention to this aspect, and then turned his head to look at Hua An and Shuangdie.
Anyway, the precognitive vision is open, so it’s time to take a look at them all.
Then, he almost slammed the table and stood up.
Ian didn't really stand up, and his expression didn't even change, but there was already a turmoil in his heart.
Because what reflected in his eyes was darkness.
There is no light at all, and it is made of the richest scarlet and the richest darkness, and is as dark as the materialization of despair.
That's the color of death -
how come? !
Ian's abnormality was not noticed by everyone. Hua An was introducing the difference between walnuts and almonds to Shuangdie, and Shuangdie obviously preferred the taste of almonds. The two fairies watched.
It seems very carefree and uncontested, but in fact it is.
But in the precognitive vision, the two fairies are about to face their certain death!
"Everything will be fine tomorrow morning!
Ian's alertness has been raised to the highest level. On the surface, he is still eating midnight snacks, but all his experiences have been concentrated on this matter. Ren 11
After eating, Ian went to the roof of the building on the pretext that he wanted to catch the wind, and Isengard naturally didn't think there was anything strange about it.
After arriving at the top of the building, Ian closed his eyes, took a deep breath, gathered his mental power and spiritual energy, and then opened his eyes to look at the entire floor area.
Immediately, in the layer area, on both sides of the peaceful and quiet streets, the houses with lights slightly burning or lights out, as well as the people in them, all turned into mist.
Each figure in the mist is either talking to family and friends, or is already lying on the bed. The different lines and directions of the mist represent different meanings, their fate and-
The future for a period of time came into Ian's eyes.
Because the density of sublimated people in the Imperial City is much higher than that in other places, there are more than three or more sublimated people in just a few blocks, and there are second and third level sublimated people in the entire area.
Not a lot, so even Ian, whose mental power has greatly increased now, felt the pressure for a while.
His eyes felt hot and his brain felt tired - but Ian still insisted on maintaining his precognitive vision and observing the 'future' of this area.
Then he saw,
Centered on the Isengard house where he was, a large area of black and red fog spread rapidly - although there were a few scattered black and red in the distance, it could be clearly seen -
The source of everything is Isengard House.
Be right where you are!
"It's me - it's not Hua An and Shuang Die who are going to be unlucky, but I am going to be unlucky!"
Ian's heart sank: "And it's a bad luck that will definitely lead to death once encountered!" Ren 4]
"but why?"
Ian could not imagine for a moment why he would suddenly fall into a certain death situation, and even involve Hua An and Shuangdie Er from the Fairy Country behind him. This was simply unbelievable.
Makes no sense!
"Is it possible that my performance in testing the armor this afternoon triggered something?"
racking his brains to think about the possibilities, Ian's eyes stared into the distance - a black and red figure. He actually knew that person. He was the owner of the restaurant whom he had had a meal with before.
It was already late at night, the restaurant was closed, and he returned to his residence to prepare for a rest.
He also fell into an extremely dangerous situation. This was definitely not because of what he had done recently, but because he was implicated by Ian.
The same goes for another person, the clothing store owner from whom Ian recently bought several robes. He also suffered from a bloody disaster.
"All of these people are more or less related to me and have some intersection with me, so they are unlucky because of this!
Ian has discovered this, but he doesn't understand at all why - this is the imperial capital, who has so much energy, can actually be in the fifth energy level and the fourth in the plural
Caused such death and destruction under the suppression of energy levels? Even like the implicated nine tribes, uprooting all the people around him who interacted with him? Ren 2]
unless
That's them.
"Ethan."
Coming down from the roof, Ian, who looked as usual, asked directly: "Recently, those relatives of yours - I mean, are the eldest prince and eldest princess also paying attention to me?
?”
Huh?&039;
After seeing Ian come back from the roof, he asked this question directly. Isengard was a little confused: "Why do you ask this suddenly?
Although it is not clear, Ian is a very out-of-the-box thinker. Isengard thought for a while and replied seriously: "Yes. Although it is the second uncle who usually communicates with you.
Most, but my aunt has been paying attention to you recently - especially after knowing that you are developing armor, she has become extra interested in you.
"Speaking of this." At this moment, Isengard seemed to have thought of something. He opened his eyes wide and said to Ian quite excitedly: "Did you know? The imperial military is currently conducting an expedition.
A design that integrates various armors! There are no restrictions or requirements, just practicality and actual combat capabilities. We think this is for the large-scale development of sixth-generation armor accumulation equipment.
In short, the price offered by the military is very high.
"I heard from others that this afternoon, Ian, you were in the limelight at the experimental base. Even the legendary veteran Lieutenant Colonel Anna was full of praise for you - Cyclops
The performance definitely meets the requirements, and I might even try to win the design crown.
"My aunt is one of the censors, I guess she must be paying attention to you because of this!
Having said this, Isengard clenched his fists and encouraged Ian: "Do you want to participate? If you can succeed, you will get funds directly from the imperial military!"——
Yes, that’s it!
Ian took a deep breath in his heart, and his voice was a little nervous unconsciously: "Princess Alegria is paying direct attention to the army's collection of armors.
Design, otherwise, why would there be so many workshops and legions developing various types of unconventional armor in recent times?"
"Furthermore, the eldest princess herself is the behind-the-scenes supporter of the Firestone Group. My research materials and those armors can all be considered gifts from her. She must know what I have been doing recently.
If I go to participate in the collection, I will definitely get the winner, or one of the first few
This is really not Ian's arrogance. Although the performance of the Cyclops' body is only above average, the light prism technology and bionic circuits are completely new design ideas, which cannot win the third place.
One person, he would only think that the Terran people were ignorant or had a shady secret of being appointed number one.
However, this has a big problem.
Ian swallowed, calmed down, and solemnly said to Isengard: "You
"Would he also pay attention to this matter?
"If it were before, I can say absolutely not
At this time, even Isengard began to feel uncertain. He groaned and thought: "But His Majesty has appeared today, so in the recent period, he should be able to
More active than before?"
It seems that everyone will pay attention to it one by one.
Ian nodded silently, understanding everything now.
The eldest princess Alegria has been paying attention to herself recently. Even if she doesn't sign up, she will probably let herself run.
Then, there is no doubt that you will get good results.
What happens next is very simple.
The sun is strong and all things are revealed - as long as you dare to participate, or even to say, as long as you dare to stay in the imperial capital.
53]
Then I, the hidden disciple of the most wanted criminal in the empire, will be exposed directly! 32]
