Chapter 214: Soul Poison
readx;? At nightfall, Ian returned to his room with a plate of food. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoIn fact, for the past two months, he has been sleeping on a bench in the living room, and the room that originally belonged to him has been used by Fei'er. During the time when the girl was completely unable to move, it was he who brought the portion that had been prepared for her every time it was time for the meal. Every day is no exception.
Of course, for some reason, the girl complained a lot about this, repeatedly emphasizing that she did not need to eat. However, in the end, she still couldn't reverse the double attack of Elena and Ian, and had to accept this situation that she regarded as a "shame".
"Ian, what seems to be interesting happening today?" Reluctantly biting down on the food that had been handed to her mouth, Phil tilted her head slightly, a glimmer of curiosity in her eyes. In fact, although she was unable to spread her consciousness at this time, she still maintained her keen perception as a swordsman, not to mention the screams that were enough to alarm the surroundings in the afternoon, even what was happening in the living room, she was also vaguely aware of it.
"Trust me, it's not fun at all. Ian's hand holding the spoon froze for a moment, and he replied a little unnaturally, and then, as if to prevent the girl from continuing to ask, he eagerly scooped up a spoonful of thick soup, and after a few blows, handed it to the girl's mouth.
"Aunt Elena seems to have been proposed. A hint of dissatisfaction flashed in the girl's eyes, and she insisted on getting to the bottom of it.
"It's not like this hasn't happened before. Ian rolled his eyes. And in reality, he really wasn't lying. As a beautiful woman who looks only in her twenties, the number of times Elena has been proposed to her is more than Ian can count.
"Then why are you so angry?"
"Alright, alright. Ian snorted and shoved the last slice of bread into Phil's mouth, "You still care about when you'll be okay." Assharis isn't dead yet, and I can't get Khan Pax out alone. ”
"It's almost there, I can feel it. ”
"How long was that?"
"About five to seven days. ”
"A week or so?" Ian touched his chin. It was almost the end of June, that is, before the Coming of July 7th, Phil could recover, just in time to rescue Khan Parkes.
Two months earlier, the emissary had set out to report on the situation in Khanpaks. Ian didn't think that after all this time, the upper echelons of the empire had not received concrete news. Therefore, either the upper echelons of the empire are hesitant to deal with a reasonable plan, or they already have a plan, but they must pick an appropriate time to announce it.
Although those in the Northern Regions know that Khan Parks was ousted because of his status as the head of the Balance Society. But when it was actually announced, it was absolutely impossible for the Empire to use such a reason. This kind of practice of setting up an archway again may seem ridiculous to many lower-class civilians, but the upper echelons of the empire, who have already made a gesture of accepting criminals, will definitely not slap themselves in the face. This group of so-called bigwigs values their face and authority more than anything else, and no matter how ridiculous this kind of thing is, for anyone who dares to remind them of this, they will either silence them or make them disappear forever
Therefore, for the Archduke of Lancewayne, who has a great reputation, there are only two choices they can make. Or silently solve it in secret, create accidents, and make it disappear. Either it is to choose the "most appropriate" day, make up the "most suitable" reason, and solve it "above board" and "justifiably". And for now, the upper echelons of the empire undoubtedly chose the latter.
After figuring this out, it was not difficult for Ian to determine that the most likely time for the Empire to announce the Grand Duke's crimes to the outside world was on the day of God's presence.
"Ian, what's wrong?"
"Nope. It's nothing. Ian shook his head, pulled his mind back, and smiled at Phil, "Get some rest." So saying, he helped the girl down to lie down, picked up the plate, and walked out of the room. After cleaning up the dishes, he walked to Esther's room.
In fact, Ian was very measured in his attack, picking out the places where it would hurt but not hurt badly. So, while he was taking care of Phil, a middle-aged gentleman who had been his sandbag for half a day began his job here at Yelena's request.
"How"
As soon as he opened the door, Ian, who was about to ask about the results of the examination, stopped his voice. Because Elena, who found out that he was coming, turned around, raised an index finger in front of her lips, made a silent motion, and then said to him with her mouth: Don't make a sound.
Ian nodded knowingly, and his gaze fell on Harris over the mummified wounded man on the bed. At this time, this handsome and elegant middle-aged man was looking serious, and he didn't look like he was funny in the afternoon. This not only made Ian feel unreal, but also made him unconsciously attracted to the other party.
Concentration tends to make a man handsome, and a man who already has a good appearance will naturally become more noticeable when he focuses on certain things. It's just that the reason why Ian was attracted to attention was not because of the other party's appearance, but because of the other party's actions at this time.
I saw that he inserted a bright red rose into Esther's chest, and through this rose, the power of the heart image seemed to turn into a strand of silk, spreading to her whole body and seeping into the soul of the other party. Ian had never seen anyone manipulate the power of the mind to such a delicate level before. Moreover, although the power of mental images is of the same origin, they are often influenced by the consciousness of the capable person in the soul of different capable people, and are contaminated with their temperament and ideology.
Stretching the power of one's own mental image into the souls of others, this practice is almost stuffing one's own ideology into the minds of others, once it is not handled well, and touches the difference between the consciousness and temperament of the two, then even the best ending is mutually exclusive and the soul is traumatized.
This is like two people with contradictory personalities, when they are together, they often have to avoid places where there are differences in consciousness, otherwise they are prone to quarrels and even conflicts.
Therefore, at this moment, what Harris is doing is undoubtedly extremely difficult and dangerous. And those who can use this method to examine soul injuries will definitely not be ordinary people.
The room fell into absolute silence once more.
It wasn't until a long time later that Harris slowly retracted the power of the extended mental image.
"Teacher, how is he?" asked Elena softly.
"He was poisoned. Harris frowned tightly, "Poison of the soul." "To be continued.
