Chapter 186: Titan Monster (Updated Tomorrow)
The Gull Tavern is an evolved version of the Nagagu Tavern.
As a comrade-in-arms and cook of the current Viscount and Knight of Yam when he was still an apprentice under the old Viscount Grant, the owner of the Gull Wine House, Uncle Deley, was an easy-going mute.
Originally the child of a fisherman, he came to Southridge with his parents to join the pioneer group, and in the war with the natives, his parents died, and Deli himself had to join the escort team to train and join the battle with the natives.
Because of malnutrition, his physical instinct is really not flattering, he can't be a spearman or a shield, he can be tired to death by hanging armor, even if he is finally sent to be a cook, he will only stew fish soup with one hand......
It is true that the various fish stews taste good, but once they recall the greasy taste of eating them for five years, every member of the team will have a painful and distorted expression.
It's just that Deli has one advantage.
That is, he is a real person who has something to do and is very reliable.
Not many people know about what happened decades ago, and Deli himself can't boast about it, but Ian learned from Elder Pud that Viscount Grant was ambushed by an elite native hunter back then, and his shoulder was stabbed in the shoulder by the newly developed 'Bauhinia Poison' poison arrow at that time, and the anti-poison potion he carried with him was not effective at all.
Seeing that the arm of the top combat power in the team was about to be corroded and a large piece of flesh was about to be corroded, and the team was on the verge of total annihilation, it was Deli who rushed up and sucked out the venom as soon as possible...... As a result, his mouth and teeth were corroded and messy, and he could not speak for the rest of his life, and he could only drink soup and porridge.
The grace of saving his life cannot be overstated, so even old Deli's sparse cooking skills can still have his own store not far from the Viscount's Palace, on the most elite street of Central Avenue, opening the tavern he has always dreamed of opening.
Now, four years after the great development of Port Harrison, the Long Gull Tavern has successfully evolved into the Long Gull Tavern...... Also, there are quite a few extra features.
For example, the place designated by the Lord of Port Harrison for a trade meeting.
The second-floor boxes are dim, but they are bright when lit up with fluorescent lights, and a yellowish glow fills the soundproofed rooms, where many of Harrison's business collaborations and confidential agreements have been reached.
Viscount Grant himself endorsed the reliability of this place, with the slogan 'Even the Patrol Knight can't find even the slightest trace of a hole or trace from here'...... Although this is true, Ian, who knows the truth, can't help but have mixed feelings.
"I've had breakfast, I don't need to order food, I can only say that I am exercising after dinner."
As soon as he entered the box on the second floor, Ian informed in advance: "Uncle Deli's fish soup can be tried, the taste is okay, but after all, it is a country dish, and you should pay attention to the water and soil." β
And Isengard's honest reply couldn't help but make him look sideways: "Ah, don't worry, I've already taken anti-poison potions before, and what I usually eat is very simple, usually the physical potion that the teacher refines for me." β
"You eat stamina potions as food? Is it the stamina potion that contains all the nutrients that humans need, but tastes like water and protein powder? β
Glancing at the young master of the Ellen family with extremely strange eyes, it was difficult for Ian to explain the emotions in his heart: "Eat only the necessary proteins, fats, carbohydrates, salt, vitamins...... And pure essentia? β
- Are you an android?
"Huh?" But Esengard was a little confused: "In order to avoid the disturbance of essentia attributes caused by ordinary eating, and the increase in the probability of distortion caused by accidentally eating xenomorphic demonic beasts...... Isn't this what everyone eats until the end of puberty? β
"This is the healthiest and safest recipe that has been researched and proven by the Royal Alchemy Society!"
"It's outrageous." In this regard, Ian only sighed meaninglessly: "The nobles of this world, ......"
At this time, there were only two people in the box, Ian and Isengard, and the two tall guards stayed at the door.
In such a secrecy environment, the young master of the Eren family revealed his true purpose for coming to Ian.
"Excuse me, can you sense the essentia aura on this dragon scale through the box?"
Isengard placed the silver-blue metal box in front of Ian, with a clear crystal window in the middle, which was beautifully crafted and had a very regular inscription on the outside.
Inside the box is a piece of blue translucent crystal scales.
The scales are still releasing a halo of light like breathing, although it is not powerful, but it reveals a special charm, like a tide.
"Dragon scales? Too fast, right? β
Ian glanced at the box, then looked up at the expectant blonde boy.
He pondered for a moment, then said slowly, "Has the Ellen family always been so straightforward? I thought you'd ask about the distribution of monsters around Port Harrison, the indigenous situation, and the anomalies in recent months, and then wait until we're done with tea before getting to the point......"
"Mom...... My mother once said to me that for smart people, if you can tell the purpose directly, you can say the purpose directly. β
Isengard almost misspoke again, but his last words were still fluent: "Originally, I was a little hesitant, but after seeing your strength just now...... I completely believed my teacher's words! β
"Ian, you are indeed a true genius, and in the face of a genius like you, you don't need to be so twisted and turned!"
The blonde boy, who was still immersed in the scene of Ian standing in a pool of corpse blood before Ian, nodded solemnly, then reached out and pushed the box towards Ian.
He said cautiously, "Last night, the teacher and uncle had already decided to invite you to be a member of our exploration team...... It's a real exploration team, not an exploration team with ostensible elements. β
"Ian, the day before yesterday, you must have known that even my belongings were secretly cursed, and the mission cannot be canceled because of this accident, so I must complete the task as quickly as possible now, and then return to the imperial capital to report to Your Majesty."
"Now, what we need is speed, not the loss of efficiency due to secrecy, where people are suspicious of each other and don't know what they're going to do."
He was blunt, and he didn't mind Ian knowing about it.
Originally, he didn't need to mind, the blonde boy knew very well that with his identification ability alone, it was a certainty that the other party would become a member of the exploration team, not to mention that the other party's strength was so strong!
Now, it's just one last step of the process.
- That is, to figure out how strong Ian's source texture stress is!
Only when they know this, can they determine the scope and timing of exploration, and then determine the next plan!
Yes, they originally also prepared the corresponding exploration instruments, but a dead instrument, how could it be useful to have a person who can communicate and accurately point out the direction and range?
The answer to this question is simple.
Ian lowered his eyes, staring at the scales in the metal box in front of him.
γZhanhai Crystal Dragon's Dragon Scalesγ
[Peak of the first energy level, vacuum isolation treatment, cornerstone, edible]
[The scales of the Crystalline Dragon's Deep Sea Specialized Species, which inhabit the high-psionic ecosystem, are derived from a young dragon and do not have many special effects. The scales of the Crystallized Dragon are natural essentia storage crystals and detector raw materials, which can be used to make a variety of rare auxiliary accessories and props, and can also keenly sense most of the essentia and psionic energy fluctuations in the surrounding seas]
[Because it has not yet entered the mature body, the dragon scales of the crystalline dragon do not have the ability to be spiritualized, and cannot absorb the water essency for high-speed self-regeneration, and the hardness is relatively average, and it will quickly dissolve itself if it is not stored properly]
[Essentia: 0.054]
γβ¦β¦γ
- What can you sense?
- The answer is all!
The question of a prophet and a chip holder is a bit overwhelming.
"It's a bit like the smell of Odell Reef, a very pure water source and natural psionic breath."
He stared at the dark blue mist that seemed to him in front of him, which had materialized and churned, giving a feeling as solid as metal and as vast as the sea, and he couldn't help but mutter, "I want to ask...... What are your standards? Can it sense the fluctuation frequency of essentia, or can it track ......?"
"Huh?"
And halfway through hearing this, Isengard became excited, and his eyes widened: "You can really sense it!" Even through the box of the silver alloy, you can sense its essentia fluctuations! β
The boy stood up, clenched his fists excitedly, and said, "Is Odell Reef right?" That's probably where it has been perched recently - I didn't expect Ian to even sense this, it's really amazing! β
After that, Isengard babbled something more, "The teacher said that you are much more sensitive than me, and I didn't believe it at first", not jealousy, but mainly because I couldn't think of the country...... Ah, it's not the country, it's ...... Harrison Port has someone as powerful as you...... such a low EQ remark.
Ian didn't care, he didn't care, he and the fourteen-year-old child cared about anything.
- Actually, it's much more than that, I can tell that the owner of this scale is a dragon...... And it is also a very rare labyrinth dragon species.
Ian was silent, he knew what Silent Silver was, it was a special metal that could isolate all essentia and psionic reactions, because the high purity of Silent Silver could even damage the sublimation organs and psionic energy of those who approached it, so if it was safe to use, he could only use a low-incorporation alloy.
No wonder he felt that the essentia perception just now had penetrated a very thick layer of rock shells, he thought it was the special of the dragon species, but he didn't expect it to be Silent Silver?
"Thankfully, it didn't reveal that I could see even the general image of the target."
sighed in his heart, because of the ability of the prophet and the silver chip, Ian didn't know what ordinary people's reaction should be in this regard now.
It's also hard to pretend to be a pig.
Moreover, with the breath of this dragon scale, Ian has already deduced the truth based on the information he learned from communicating with the ironclad shark in the middle of the night.
"It seems that on the other side of Odell Reef, there is a maze sea dragon of the labyrinth species? Or is it a juvenile sea dragon who has not yet advanced to the second energy level of the first energy level?! β
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but exclaim in his heart: "Sure enough, it has to be a prey of this level to attract the attention of the imperial capital, so that the young master of the Eren family can come here thousands of miles away, accompanied by two second-level powerhouses!" β
"If it's for a water dragon, then everything makes sense! Whether it's the mutation of the indigenous totem spirit, or the situation where the ironclad shark is afraid to approach, it's all because of this! β
"Because a Titan Monster cub with the potential of the fifth energy level has appeared around Port Harrison!"
