Chapter 253: The Black Tyrant and the First Knight (2/3)

"Ah......h

Ian also didn't expect that Master Gosai would be stunned by his identity.

But if you think about it carefully, it's not surprising - Master Gosai was originally just an ordinary man who brought his little apprentice over for a royal mission, and by the way to protect his apprentice from the limelight, it turned out that someone was already preparing to assassinate Yi Sen, and his former student, the apprentice's uncle, was the mastermind of this assassination, and he was seriously injured by him, and then he saw the local young appraiser of Bai Zhimin kill the indigenous great shaman with the power of the first level......

After that, it is time to fall into the ruins and guess the true identity of the young appraiser.

These things were connected together, and the old man was in a state of agitation, and he was indeed weak at that time, so it was really not surprising that he was scared and fainted.

Perhaps thanks to the old man's mental toughness and good health, otherwise it would be normal for him to pass out on the spot.

As for the few flaws that Master Gosai said about himself, Ian was relieved.

These flaws are not really flaws, it can only be said that Master Gosai is also a person from the Inaga era, and he also had communication and contact with Teacher Hilliard and them back then, and even forged alchemy swords for the Patrol Knights, so he was able to detect his identity through a series of suspicions and clues.

And......

"If you're going to report me, why do you have to say it?"

Ian stared at the green light emanating from the other party's body, and couldn't help but shake his head: "Moreover, if I really knew that you had murderous and hostile intentions towards me, I would definitely see it at the first time." ”

"Can your spirit even penetrate emotions? No wonder the First Knight chose you as the last heir, otherwise, it would be too easy to be deceived and too easy to be seen through the identity. ”

Gosai was still looking at the Iron Sword of the Abyss, his brow furrowed slightly, thinking about the key technical issues, not paying much attention to Ian's words.

After thinking about it, he raised his head and said solemnly: "If you want to hide your identity, use your swordsmanship a little roughly, a fourteen-year-old country swordsman, where can you get such good swordsmanship?" This will cause suspicion, and then gradually increase the observation of you. ”

"You're so genius, it's hard to understand how far ordinary heaven can go, right? But there is no need to worry now, except for me, no one in Port Harrison can see so closely, just be a little restrained in front of Ayers, his father's swordsmanship has to be taught to the first knight, and if you talk about the swordsmanship you learned from Ayres in the future, no one will doubt those similarities. ”

Returning the sword to Ian, Master Gosai pointed to the edge of the sword and said: "This sword is made of heavy abyss iron as the main material, which is enough to be used as a strong material for the outer armor of the ether armament, it is extremely tough, and its adaptability to essentia is also quite good. ”

"The First Knight's fighting method doesn't require a blade, and he uses the same sword embryo as an iron rod, but you can't."

"No matter what inheritance you practice, your current strength can't exert the power of this sword, so if you want to disguise, it's better to use a layer of silver as a blade for it, and cover the key parts, that is a very common fine iron silver long sword, and swordsmen who are good at dealing with demonic beasts like to use this weapon that can break through the open quality shield."

Saying this, the old man even took out a small bag of silver from his arms, handed it to Ian, and raised his eyebrows to signal: "You yourself are an alchemist, find a chance to plate silver yourself, I don't have the strength to make a move for the time being." ”

Ian nodded, and accepted the small bag of silver.

It's not a question of whether it's expensive or not, but as a high-grade material that can increase the toughness of weapons and armor, this kind of thing can't be bought in the normal market at all, at least there is only one Viscount Grant in Port Harrison who has channels, and he can't refuse.

"That's pretty much it." Staring at Ian, then closing his eyes, Gosai said tiredly, "Let me rest a little longer...... The sounds of these bugs are so annoying, I can't get rid of them for a while. ”

"Master."

Ian also planned to turn around and leave directly, so that Master Gosai could rest well and recover sooner.

But as he was leaving, he had another question in mind.

The boy turned his head to look at the old man, who was barely bracing himself, and asked a question that was not very important, but satisfied his curiosity.

"Why do you call the first emperor the 'Black King'...... But you seem to have respect for your teacher? ”

This was one of Ian's more curious questions - Viscount Grant's kind of talent who always called Inaga II the first emperor was rare, and most nobles and merchants called him the Black King, not to mention the common people who were all over the place.

It is not surprising that Master Gosai said that Inaga II is the Black King, after all, as a member of the Bachelor's Group, it is normal for them to be reluctant to see the spread of knowledge, and Ian will not feel that there is anything 'wrong' in such behavior, but he will indeed try to 'improve' in the future.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ The popularity of the first knight is comparable to the black ...... The first emperor is much better. ”

After being silent for a while, Master Gosai shook his head with a wry smile: "How to say, the first emperor is indeed very capable, which can be seen from the fact that although His Majesty opposes the policy of the first emperor on the surface, he has been secretly promoting his policy. Of course, a more conciliatory and compromise approach was used. ”

"As for attitude...... How to say it, it is not surprising that the first emperor was called the Black King......"

"He has never spared any means in carrying out his policies, his will, including general servitude and the conscription of men in the prime of lifeβ€”if he is a 'tyrant' to override others by his own will, he is indeed the greatest tyrant of Terra in seven hundred years, and no one can beat him."

Of course, his ideas, policies, and methods were later proven to be correct, good, and of long-term value...... yes, he's all right! But what's the use of being right? We are not him, if we can't even experience the beautiful world we have created after working hard all our lives, and we can't have a little personal enjoyment, then why should we work hard to dedicate ourselves?! ”

Speaking of this, the old man's tone suddenly became excited, but it was quickly suppressed.

After taking a few deep breaths, Master Gosai closed his eyes before laughing self-deprecatingly, "Of course." Judging from the current degree of decay and degeneration of the imperial aristocracy, he is right again - we are actually a group of crazy horses who will definitely run astray without shackles, or even run backwards, haha, he is really good, but what is the use of it? ”

He couldn't accomplish his dream alone, and he couldn't manage the madness and selfish desires of nobles and scholars, so he just blindly suppressed and restrained...... The result and end of this kind are also 'right'. ”

It seems to be to pour out the depression, emotion and doubts that have been pent up in my heart for years to Ian, the successor of Hilliard, to the stand-in of 'those two people'.

Master Gosai doesn't look like a wise old man now, but like the angry young man he was decades ago.

It's just that after all, Ian is not Hilliard, let alone the Black King...... Not Inaga II.

The silent white-haired teenager couldn't respond to the other's dazedness.

"For so many years, I have been teaching and educating people, and I don't bother to participate in any political struggles, because only educating children is something that cannot be wrong."

Raising his head, the old man and the silent young man looked at each other, and he said solemnly: "Ian, if you ask me why I call Inaga II the 'Black King', then I will tell you that our first emperor ...... Perhaps we do want to create a country where everyone is happy. ”

However, he could only see the glorious world a hundred years later, and he could not see all the complaining courtiers...... with the people. ”

"I can't see it clearly, the badness of human nature."

"He deserves to be called the Black King, and so is the Tyrant, but the First Knight is a worthy saint - you are his disciple, and naturally you know that I am not exaggerating, I have studied and taught in the True Knowledge Academy for a period of time, and it is the First Knight who taught us to rediscover our humanity and get back on the right path."

"Don't worry." Speaking of this, Master Gosai shook his head, as if to deny Ian's doubts: "I will not tell anyone your identity, there are few people who sympathize with the Black King, and there are many people who sympathize with the First Knight, after all, the current Majesty is not a member of the Dark Moon Turmoil at that time, the First Emperor is his father after all, and the First Knight is his teacher after all." ”

"It's true that your identity can't be revealed, but if you become as strong as your teacher in the future, the empire will not see you as an enemy."

"Even, it will be respected."
