Ryan City is a small forest town located on the shores of a river lake, or rather a large town, even if it is a little simple compared to Port Harrison.

But when it comes to scenery, Harrison Port is basically crushed in all aspects, except for relying on the South China Sea to get some points.

Surrounding the entire city of Lai'an, the flowers and plants of purple and golden orange are the form of the 'glow grass' when it is not mature, and this spiritual plant is a perennial herb named after the color of the morning glow and the sunset.

It blooms in summer and withers in winter, and the individuals it successfully bred can extract psionic nourishing extract, a precious tranquilizer raw material that can also be used as a tonic to heal mental wounds.

Not all glow grass can be considered psionic plants, and only the best part of it can manifest as a 'glow' that can clearly see the light at night.

As long as you hold the leaves of the glow grass in your mouth and meditate with your eyes closed, you can have a good dream, in which you can see the bright glow of the sun, smell the fragrance of the grass and trees, and quickly cure a series of diseases including insomnia, mental weakness and headaches.

Other glow grasses that do not manifest glow will decay early and accumulate nutrients for the coming year.

In addition, the scent of plants and trees secreted by the glow grass has a strong calming effect on the demonic beasts, and even a fierce beast like the sharp-clawed tiger will lose its hunting instinct when it gets close.

And the originally gentle, such as the hard-armored bear, a magical beast, will even lie down in the sea of flowers to sleep, and can be lured out by a few ordinary people with honey.

A road passes through the sea of flowers and leads to the town behind it.

Now that the morning light was rising, the golden light covered the earth, so the glow in the sea of flowers was fading, but Ian could still see a lot of pale blue breath when he swept through the sea of flowers.

The production of glow grass is quite stable, and it shouldn't be difficult for him to buy potion materials.

After saying goodbye to Anfa, the green-haired elven maester decided to enjoy the beauty of the city alone, while Ian decided to go directly to the Baron's Mansion to deliver a post, and then go to the local Platinum Iridium Workshop to inquire about the potion.

Not surprisingly, in this important place of origin of potion raw materials, the Platinum Iridium Workshop should have telecommunication equipment, which ordinary people can't borrow, but with the business card of Master Gosai and Isengard in his hand, it should be no problem.

Built on the lake, the city is surrounded on two sides by a sea of flowers, one side by a lake and the other side with direct access to the endless Baisan Mountains on the west side.

According to Ian's knowledge, Lake Ryan was formed by a meteorite impact thousands of years ago, and the water from the surrounding mountains gathered here, so this small but extremely deep mountain well was formed by the glow grass that originally surrounded this starfall land.

So the Baron's House was not built in the center of the town, but on a high cliff on the shore of the lake, and the towering rock cliffs solidified by lava were extremely solid, and the baron's castle and manor house were rooted here, with towering spires reaching to the sky, overlooking the entire city of Lyan.

Suddenly, it was dark.

Ian looked up, and the rain clouds from the South China Sea were approaching the land, the moist breath and the sea of clouds engulfing the mountains rising at the edge of the sky, the edge of which was dyed with a layer of morning glow from the dawn.

There is no shortage of sunshine in Nanling, but the rain is definitely abundant, and the town covered in a sea of flowers seems to come alive because of the approaching rain clouds, and the lights begin to light up in the dotted buildings.

People began to pack up their clothes hanging outside their windows, close the windows that had been opened by the sweltering heat, and the noisy noise was preceded by rain clouds that obscured the sun.

Even Frostbutterfly was excited, patting the inside of Ian's helmet with a snap, causing the boy to smile and remove it, his long white hair falling out, and he breathed in the air that was gradually starting to get cold with the leprechaun.

The only thing that really has the medicinal effect of Xia Hui grass is its leaves, but the fragrance of the flowers is indeed fragrant enough, and there is a faint fragrance similar to the osmanthus in the previous life.

Soothing taste. He thought. The indigenous Supor powder is similar to its fragrance, and the effect cannot be said to be unrelated.

Maybe the glow grass is a mutant and advanced Supor flower.

Ice blue goblins flew around Ian, sensing his cozy surroundings and giving him a silent cheer.

Until the first drop of rain fell, dripping on the palm of the boy's hand.

"Let's go."

Frostbutterfly made a fuss for a while, and in the rain that gradually intensified, Ian put on his helmet again, and the goblin obediently returned.

Riding a camel beast, the guide knight walked into the town.

The guards patrolling the streets noticed a distant visitor in armor, and they approached him to ask him, then saluted him respectfully.

But at the highest point of town, the castle rises above the cliff are always dark.

A figure stood at the top of the tower, staring silently at the scene.

……

'Red Blade' Lübeck, a former leader of the Harrison Port Mercenaries, is now a supernumerary executive of the Huaiguang Church, and a devout believer.

The red-haired, green-eyed mountain people are a little blessed, and the thin but powerful bodies of the past even have the small bellies that are common to middle-aged people—this is too incredible for the sublimators, because they can easily burn off the calories that can be stored in those fats by exercising at will, and only essenta can provide the energy they need for life activities.

Since the success of revenge, Lu Beck, who gave up licking blood on the knife, seems to have given up all wealth and enjoyment, and is at ease to be an ordinary monk in Huaiguang conversation, with coarse tea and light rice every day, chopping wood and sweeping the floor, and looking comfortable.

But today, with a frown on his brow and a solemn expression, he walked briskly to the episcopal ashram at the back of the church.

"Come in."

Before he could knock on the door, Bishop White Mist was the first to speak, causing Lübeck to be stunned for a moment before opening the door.

The white-haired, somewhat unkempt old man was reading a secret letter in front of him, and beside him, a crystal plate was also emerging with refreshed words.

These should have been secrets, but he didn't mind showing them to Lübeck, who was theoretically just an outsider.

And the red-haired mountain man was also worthy of this trust, he did not squint, and whispered to the old man to report the news he had received.

"Hmm. The Mountaineers of the Iron Fang believe that the Flamelands are disturbing the balance of the biosphere within the Baisen Mountains, and they intend to lure the powerful Beastmaster out of the mountains and attack the prosperous cities north of the Onyx Plain. ”

This was enough news to make the faces of any lord whose territory was located around the Agate Stone Plain change his face drastically, but Bishop White Mist continued to read the letter without changing his face: "Judging from the head and information sent back by Ian a few days ago, there is a high probability that this information is true. ”

"All-out war is about to begin, and Flying Flame intends to attack Southridge's economy, food, and defense forces on all fronts. However, with Viscount Grant's appeal, the lords everywhere have been vigilant, and there is no need to worry about this - I will inform the Viscount and the Marquis of Batun of this information later. ”

"Hey, why doesn't the church ......?"

The mountain people apparently did not trust the so-called aristocracy very much. Bishop White Mist sensed Lübeck's sorrow and rejection.

In this regard, he showed a faint smile: "The Huaiguang Church will not interfere in the war between human nations and human nations. Lübeck, although you are not a true member of the Church, I would like to introduce you to the Holy Mountain for further study. ”

"After you avenged your child, you became decadent and desireless, confused about the meaning of your life, but this is exactly the 'sense of rebirth' that Huaiguang needs."

"And now, because of the danger that 'sentient beings' are about to encounter, you have taken the initiative to report to me the news you have received, intending to change such a 'bad future', which proves that you have 'love' and 'kindness' in the true sense."

"You are qualified to be a member of Huaiguang and practice the lineage of the Dawning Soul."

Bishop White Mist met Lübeck's green eyes, and there was a faint, pure, unwavering light in those eyes: "But Lübeck-Huaiguang will never meddle in the strife between humans. ”

"Unless it brings disaster."

“…… But Bishop, this could kill tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands! When the king of the mountains is provoked, there will be an unknown number of people dying before they are stopped! ”

Lübeck whispered in disbelief: "Bones and blood will cover the land—isn't that a disaster?!" ”

"It doesn't count." Bishop White Mist lowered his gaze: "It's just war. ”
