Perhaps it was a strange coincidence, or perhaps the sudden storm in the South China Sea was originally an anomaly caused by the changes in the ruins.

After Ian and the others returned to Port Harrison, the torrential rain gradually stopped.

The rain curtain thinned out, and the thick clouds gradually parted, revealing the golden sunlight behind them.

When everyone saw the pillars of light falling from the sky dome of the South China Sea, they suddenly remembered that the current time point was still noon, but the gloomy weather that had not seen the sun for several days made it impossible for them to accurately grasp the accuracy of the time.

After disembarking from the ship, Ian was immediately dragged by Elder Pude to the Hall of Elders of the White People.

Theoretically, Ian, who had just returned from the labyrinth, had to be questioned by the Nineteenth Legion at the first time, after all, it involved a large labyrinth of this level, not to mention anything else, a confidentiality agreement must be signed.

But the form of government of the empire means that 'theory' is basically impossible, and 'exceptions' are everywhere.

Not to mention that the master of Gosai has specially instructed 'don't disturb other young people', they are too lazy to ask for trouble......

Even if there are more serious people who have to ask about the situation.

Theoretically, Ian is the official sublimator registered on the register, the first energy level, under the command of Viscount Grant, the governor of Port Harrison in Southridge, and is the 'full-time appraiser of the city hall' and the 'official alchemist of Port Harrison', a genius psyker, and a chamber of commerce with the local white people under his name, a real snake figure.

For his specifications, he needs a person at the level of an official to personally preside over the questioning process, and he also has to offer tea and incense, so that it is in line with etiquette.

If it were normal times, it would have been fine - almost all the higher-ups were now shushing Master Gosai and Isengard, where would they find Ian.

I went back and gave a report to mean it, everyone was busy, and there was no imperial capital overseer and patrol knights, who was willing to work really hard.

After all, how much money does the imperial capital give? It's worth it for them to have nothing to do and cause trouble for other sublimators and earth snakes.

"I won't ask about the specific situation, and then you can pick out something I need to know and tell me, so that I can give the viscount an explanation."

In the hall of elders, Elder Pude put down his umbrella, untied his rain-soaked coat, and hung it on a coat hanger beside him: "Now, go take a shower...... I can't smell it, and I smell blood. ”

He changed into a robe, then took out a change of clothes and handed it to Ian, "I don't care, don't make Elan uncomfortable." ”

"Huh?"

Eain, who came back with Elan all the way and asked if the other party had eaten well in the past few days and whether he had completed his daily homework, was slightly stunned.

He'd really forgotten about the smell of blood—he'd been killing so many people and beasts in the ruins in the last few days that he'd been a little numb.

However, if you think about it carefully, not long ago, he killed more than a dozen Flying Flame Land Navy, and it is indeed not surprising that the smell of blood is heavy.

The boy lowered his head and looked at his younger brother, who was winking at him: "Does it smell bad?" Smell bad, remember to say it. ”

"No, it won't!" And the boy replied confidently: "I can't smell it!" ”

Ian pondered for a moment, he remembered that Elan's sluggish perception had improved a lot in recent years, and although his sense of smell was still a little insensitive, the smell of blood should be felt.

Elder Pude said angrily, "Okay, even if you are covered in the smell of stinky fish, Elan will not say that it smells bad. Hurry up and take a shower, what do you want to eat, I must not have eaten much in the ruins in the past few days, right? ”

"I didn't eat at all." Ian put down the obedient Elan, then picked up a change of clothes and prepared to go to the bathroom: "But I drank a lot of physical potions, thanks to Master Gosai, I drank at least a hundred thalers." ”

"Stamina Elixir......"

Elder Pude obviously understood what this meant, after all, he was also a member of the Imperial Capital Great Family back then.

The old man repeated it in a somewhat complicated tone, then shook his head and said, "Since that's the case, then I'll order more food." ”

The bathroom on the second floor is usually used by Elder Pude himself, and in recent years, a hot spring bath has been added, which is a public bath that mimics the new city, and the cobblestone bath bottom even has the effect of massaging the soles of the feet, which is very popular with the elderly.

While no one would say anything for a while, Ian wouldn't really go to the shower while his family was waiting for him to eat — he turned on the hose to rinse himself.

Wow......

The water poured down.

It must be said that the Viscount's construction over the years has indeed borne fruit, although the hot water supplied by the waste heat of the alchemy furnace has not spread throughout Harrison Port, but at least eighty percent of the residential areas can be used.

From a leader's point of view, Viscount Grant is quite an excellent lord.

He does make his territory better and better, although he can't take care of everyone, and he enjoys priority, but he does fight for the future of the people.

But people are not perfect, and as Patrick said before his death, his friend was not very ambitious, and if there were no accidents, perhaps the Viscount would have tried to make Port Harrison better throughout his life...... But if he had a greater ambition, he would do everything in his power to serve that ambition.

Whether it's for the relics or the natives, Ayrs Grant has the means and perseverance to achieve his goals.

"This hand ......"

Ian washed quickly, but it was better to say that he didn't have much dirt on his body in the first place—most of the blood was stained on his clothes, and the young man's flesh was protected by essentia, and even the sword couldn't add to it, let alone dirt? He washes his body and hair, not so much as cleansing, as a ritual, a habit.

At this time, he can think more clearly about some issues.

Drying himself with a towel and about to change into clean clothes, Ian saw his left arm.

The left arm fused with Morion steel and the Tinder hearth.

This left arm now presents a special crystalline jade texture, especially on the forearm, which is like a pure white jade, etched with cyan metal patterns, which light and dark with the circulation of essentia in Ian's body.

No, not cyan, but the translucent veins of Morion's steel—only because of Ian's essentia penetration, which gave it a light cyan.

This arm is very heavy, which makes Ian's center of gravity slightly offset, but this is not a big problem, the sublimator has to adapt to the changes brought about by these special body structures, which cannot be adapted, and he will not fight in the future.

As for the appearance, Ian has a set of alchemy gloves that can cover this part, but the cyan lines on his arms and shoulders can't cover it...... But generally no one cares too much.

Both inscriptions and war paints are common in Terra, especially in this frontier area with an indigenous cultural atmosphere.

The only problem is ......

"Does this count as my fourth first-level sublimation organ?"

Facing the mirror, Ian frowned and pointed to the location of several of his sublimation organs in the mirror: "Liver-Sand Armor Rock Core, Thymus-Heart of Fertile Earth, Spine-Pure Rock Crystal Bone." ”

"On the silver chip, the 'Pearl of the Tide' and the 'Throat of the Wave' - plus the 'Fairy Wings' that transfer the goblin bloodline, my six sublimation structures are my more powerful capital than ordinary sublimators."

"But I can be stronger - whether it's repairing the ancient dragon heart core left to me by my teacher, trying to transform into fairy blood, or sublimating the organ of the fourth sand armor apprentice, I can become stronger."

Only those who are strong beyond the limit can forge the road to the sixth energy level step by step.

Of course, in the future, Ian thinks he can definitely find a more convenient path to the sixth energy level...... He believed that the sixth energy level was not as complicated and difficult as the teacher imagined, and that he had to open up the five extreme organs in order to advance to the extreme domain.

There must be a key trick that can make the fifth level smoothly step onto the sixth level, and also make the road to the fifth level smoother.

But because they have no predecessors and no one to see the future, they can only try.

This is the meaning of inheritance, and the 'meaning of pioneering'.
