Chapter 20: The Crisis (Thanks to the lonely leader!) )
Hilliard knows very well that every psychic person is essentially a person with an extremely tough mind, and can even be said to have a heart as tough as a stone.
Therefore, he is also a natural sublimator.
Without an extremely strong self-will and tenacious spirit, it is impossible to endure the pain of sublimation or distortion of flesh and blood after taking many potion supplements.
It is even more impossible to continue to control his body in this pain, absorb the essence of many sublimating herbs and demonic beasts in the potion, open the divine power of the source seed in the body, and merge into the 'sublimation bloodline' or 'true form path', and become a sublimation person who completely surpasses ordinary life.
Hilliard looked at Ian expectantly, and the boy's expression of surprise and yearning was so real that he remembered his youthful desire for the path of ascension.
The other party has talent, but without someone to guide him, it is impossible to take the path of an ascendant, even if he is favored by the local sublimators in Port Harrison, it is impossible to reach the second energy level in this life, let alone higher.
But with his guidance, it would be completely different.
"Can the Earth's technology do it?"
At the moment, Ian is really feeling incredible.
- Perfectly control every muscle of your body, even to the level of disfiguration?
It sounds simple, but it's actually very difficult.
With this level of physical control, even if someone makes a hole in the body, I'm afraid that it can contract with its muscles to avoid bleeding, right?
It is impossible for a genetically modified warrior in a previous life to do such a thing...... Well, yes, but you need to add an additional muscle control system.
But in the world of Terra, it seems that it can be achieved only through cultivation and strengthening willpower!
"Strong self-will, even direct control of the physical body...... The world where psionic energy exists is indeed extraordinary. Ian couldn't help but whisper in his heart: "This is really a plausible world, and there is no way to have this kind of technology in my hometown." ”
Ian looked up and looked at Hilliard's familiar and unfamiliar face again, and after making sure that he was difficult to distinguish, he couldn't help muttering, "It seems that this identity is not very important to you, teacher." ”
Indeed, with this ability, the world is so big, where can't you go?
"It's not that simple. It is clear that the latter is safer to pretend to be a stranger and to pretend to be someone who already exists, as the former does not stand up to investigation. ”
But Hilliard raised his hand and shook his finger, pointing out that Ian was clearly thinking too lightly: "The frontier may still be able to fish in troubled waters." The big cities of the empire, but you need to have an identity certificate, it is useless to look the same, and the blood type and fingerprints must also be the same. ”
"And psionics don't need to observe blood muscles to distinguish people, they observe the 'volitional field', which are all hidden dangers."
When the boy heard this, he thought about it carefully, and felt that it was too.
Since the world of Terra has this disguise technology, it should also have the same discrimination technology, and things are not as simple as he thought.
The strange world really can't be judged only by the thinking of the hometown.
At this moment, Ian and Hilliard have arrived around Ian's house.
The boy, who had been walking easily, suddenly raised his head and looked at his room.
The light in his eyes shone slightly, and his gaze was solemn: "...... there"
In Ian's foresight, a thick white mist swirled in a hidden corner of the room, as if dealing with something on his feet.
And right next to this wisp of thick white mist, there were three gray-white mist figures lurking in various corners of the house, as if they were on alert.
The whole room was surrounded by light red mist, but the deepest red was a small phantom next to the thick white mist humanoid.
That was the breath of Elam...... The breath of danger that is extremely close to death!
At the same time, Hilliard's eyes narrowed—he had noticed something was wrong in the house before Ian: "This breath, the native of the redwood forest?" ”
When he buried the body with Ian, he had already heard about Orsna's collusion with the natives, and he was not surprised by this.
"It's not particularly troublesome."
Hilliard sensed slightly, and after noticing the smell of four adults in the room, he planned to step forward.
Although he had lost his original sublimation power due to the chaos thirty years ago, it was easy to kill so many natives even if he only relied on the little strength and skill left in his body.
With his heartbeat and breath, the old knight could be sure that none of the four natives in the house had the strength of the first energy level, and at the peak of the empire, they were not even apprentices, they were just ordinary people who had been trained.
"Please wait, teacher."
But he saw Ian standing in front of him, and the boy stared at his home with a serious expression, and he said solemnly, "My brother is in the hands of the other party now......"
At this moment, Ian had a slight realization in his heart.
"It seems that there are still gaps in observing one's own future through the changes in other people's fates."
With Hilliard, it is impossible for him to go to the lake and forest to risk his life at all, in other words, the change of his fate actually represents that layer of pure 'gold'.
On the other hand, after he left, the Elam who was left behind encountered the crisis of the natives, which is the real 'blood'!
"Next time, I will also consider the possibility of prediction, a variety of color combinations, different ways of interpretation, and the answers I get are completely different."
Ian frowned, "What we have to think about now is how to deal with these natives without endangering Elam." ”
"Hmm."
And just as the boy was thinking, Hilliard raised his brow slightly, he didn't expect Ian's psionic ability to actually have the ability to see through and detect information that he couldn't even hear.
However, it is not surprising that most of the psionic abilities are originally compound, and most of the holders have keen senses.
Now, what he wants to know most is actually the reaction of his 'apprentice'.
"What are you going to do?" The old knight said: "If your brother is indeed in the hands of the natives, then it will be extremely difficult to rescue him, and it is impossible for me to protect him if the other party wants to tear up the ticket...... You have to think about the results of your actions. ”
There was a hint of cruelty in his tone.
"Well, I've figured it out."
Ian stared at the house, his light cyan eyes moved slightly: "Teacher, there are four people in the house, one leader is located in the living room, and the three guards are located behind the back door and window, next to the window in the inner room and in the middle of the corridor and kitchen. ”
He simply stretched out his hand and pointed out the location of the three native guards for Hilliard: "In order to ventilate and dissipate the smell of blood, I have opened the kitchen window before leaving, from where I can enter...... If I could, I would like the teacher to help me get rid of the three guards. ”
"I'll leave the rest of the natives with my brother to deal with."
