Yes, it is to let Mr. Yinfang transfer it to the Bailong Sect.

Ian is not stupid, after really joining the Bailong Sect, can he still not see Mr. Yinfang's background? His writing was quite cryptic, but the old gentleman could definitely understand it, and would help pass it on to Elder Manya and Anfa for him.

In this way, you can also avoid suspicion.

With that done, Ian began to pack his bags and prepare to leave Nauman City.

The longer you stay in the city, the longer and more fully prepared for Magneto-Optics and Purple Maple.

Ian didn't intend to show the power of the second level if he didn't have to, and in that case, the less prepared the enemy was, the better.

Further north of Nauman is the Golden Field. If the Agate Plains get their name from their magnificent landscapes and brilliant colors when viewed from above, then the Golden Fields are essentially very simple.

This place, at one time, had quite a few gold reserves.

The reason why the empire developed Nanling was precisely because of the discovery of a large number of gold deposits in the golden fields, and it was determined that the south must have more abundant mineral reserves...... That's true, but the minerals are stored in the Byson Mountains, and it's not as easy to unearth as the Golden Fields.

Subsequent geological exploration has proved that the Golden Field is not land in essence, it is a cooling zone of igneous rocks caused by a super-giant lava eruption event, which is no more than 1,500 years ago, and it should be a huge natural disaster that occurred during the lost era.

But the catastrophe was put to rest. The scorching lava cooled and solidified rapidly, revealing a large amount of minerals, and the mineral nutrients from the Great Desert of the Flying Flame Land and the rainfall from the South Ridge gradually made the area flourish, forming a strange grassland ecology.

Here, there are huge spiral-shaped craters, hole-shaped craters and hourglass-shaped craters formed by the cooling of lava, as well as wide rifts, revealing the cross-section of the veins to the human horizon.

The various geothermal spring resources and related ecology are natural nests, allowing many monsters to thrive comfortably in this complex plain area.

Beyond the Golden Fields is the landmark of the Western Provinces, the Hurricane Bridge, a magical geological spectacle in the middle of the Bad Rift Valley, where a long-lasting wind rushes out from the depths of the earth towards the sky, and its wind is so steady that it can even swim through the Great Rift Valley to the other side.

In addition, the empire also built a bridge here, which was built with the help of the wind from the depths of the earth, and was built very quickly, and many workers floated in the air to build it, which was a great spectacle of the western provinces at that time, and is imitated by people to this day as a festival program.

After the bridge is built, it can be stable without relying on wind power...... And through it, you can step on the official road to the imperial capital.

"That's pretty much it, they're going to attack me in this area."

Ian put away the map, he had already determined the route, and roughly estimated the three possible locations where Magneto-Optics and Purple Maple would attack him.

The first is a melancholy mine that I passed through when I first entered the golden wilderness from the south, this ore can affect people's mood, and it is the key to some demonic beasts having a fear aura and intimidation ability, and the 'horror potion' also needs the refined dust of the melancholy stone.

It's a dangerous place, not many people go on weekdays, and it can interfere with the operation of many alchemy equipment and even psionic trinkets, and only some professional miners will be here.

But as an alchemist, he will definitely go and take a look and buy a batch of ores - it is not normal not to go.

And the second is a wonder in the middle of the Golden Great Plains, the 'Nine Spiral Abyss'. There are as many as nine giant spiral-shaped cavity structures that reach deep underground, and five of them are monster nests, which have extremely rare cave monster ecology inside, and are officially set up as a 'key ecological observation area' by the empire.

There are often powerful demonic beasts here, although there are no big demonic beasts of the third energy level, that is, the demonic beasts of the beast king level, but there are at least five of them in the second energy level.

It doesn't sound like it's as much as the Nanling Redwoods natives...... But the five second-level demonic beasts here are all veterans who often sweep with their own clans, fight each other, and start wars, which are not the same as ordinary demonic beasts.

What's more, there must be more beast leaders in the depths of the cave, but only about five of them are regularly found on the surface.

If you run around here and die in danger, no one will be able to say anything wrong.

As for the third.

"It's just the Bart Rift Valley. Because of the incessant hurricane, the psionic field here is extremely disordered, even if I have communication equipment, it is useless, as long as I find the right time, I can be quietly attacked and killed. ”

Ian nodded slightly, he would be ready to deal with the battle in these three areas.

For example, 'Tranquility Elixir', 'Animal Repellent' and 'Beast Incense', as well as 'Wind Affinity Elixir' and 'Transpiration'......

The boy entered the alchemy laboratory again, and it was not until late afternoon that he walked out of it, carrying only a row of colorful jars and test tubes.

Ian didn't plan to change mounts, but still planned to ride the Giant Horned Camel to the Imperial Capital - mainly because his luggage was too heavy and too heavy for ordinary horses, but if it was a carriage, it was a little too pompous, and the goal was too big, and if there was a battle in the middle of the way, it would be easier to be affected by the aftermath.

Dry food, tents, materials, utensils, and various alchemical substrates. Everything that should be prepared has been prepared with the help of the Silver Chamber of Commerce.

Although there are still many delicacies and scenery that I haven't eaten in Nauman City, I regret that I haven't seen many scenery...... But it doesn't matter.

He'll always come back.

Moreover, there is a wider world waiting for him to see.

So, Ian set off.

In the seventh year of Terra, in the beginning of June, the temperature rose day by day, and the distorted heat wave around the golden fields steamed up the water vapor, causing the wilted grass and trees to sway in the hot wind, and there was no trace of green to be seen on the originally vast plains.

During this season, even the caravans travel at night, hiding in the shade of trees or caves during the day, otherwise even the Terra will end up suffering from dehydration and heat stroke.

The sun was fierce, and a camel beast slowly walked through the avenue in the field, and a sauna-like hot wind blew, but the giant beast, which should have been exhausted by the heat, seemed very energetic, because the many holes in the armored knight's body sitting on it were constantly circulating and releasing bursts of cold air, invigorating the camel beast's energy.

In the empty plains, there was not even the sound of insects, only the clatter of camel beasts trampling on the road.

Two days had passed since his departure from Nauman City, and he had seen a lot of local customs and customs as he had passed through the many settlements and trading towns north of Nauman City, as well as the new towns and villages built by refugees in the hilly areas of the west.

It is often said that Nanling is a land full of miasma and wild beasts, although it is a wild but savage land, and only those who have been degraded and pioneers who are almost crazy will come here.

But in reality, this is not the case, the people here are just as industrious and courageous, and the land here is so rich and rich that even the refugees from the west can barely support themselves if they build villages and start farming.

The river that flows down from the Baison Mountains flows through the valleys and hills to the golden fields.

These rivers and streams crisscross the vast expanse, converging into lakes and then flowing in all directions, bringing with them vast expanses of vegetation and plains, as well as scattered small villages and towns.

Most of the villages and towns in the Golden Fields rely on trade routes, most of which are various manors built under the protection of knights, planting some local spices or sublimation plants, which is the most common response to the wilderness on the continent of Terra - establish human settlements centered on the sublimators, and then begin to obtain the benefits of the land, and then expand into towns around these settlements, and then become a prosperous paradise.

Although this will lead to the creation of new aristocrats and even 'exploiters', Ian does not feel that this approach is wrong...... At the very least, in this day and age, such behavior at least represents pioneering.

It's just that refugees from the western borders are flooded with manors and hard work, and the scenes of hard work still make him a little silent and don't know how to speak.

Is this oppression? The refugees probably never thought so, even if their wages were lower than the local residents, but at least they were freedmen, and it was a mercenary relationship on the surface - the knights of the manors were willing to accept these people, let them settle down, and accelerate the development of their villages and towns, after all, these homeless people had no fixed residence, and the oppression was too tight, what should they do if they went to someone else's territory?

What's really going on in the West? Ian originally thought that this was a manifestation of Grand Duke Thorin using the war to recklessly oppress the interests of the people and prepare for the next war.

But no matter how crazy the Grand Duke of Thorin is, he will not oppress his people to such a situation...... Or was it because he couldn't withstand the pressure of the Flamelands, and because the Empire didn't give him assistance, he had to join the enemy?

A...... Broken jars?

So on the other side, is the reason why the fortress group in the Flying Flame Lands rebelled for the same reason?

Ian suddenly realized that even if he used his foresight to know the future development of the Worm Swarm Path, and knew that the Grand Duke of Thorin in the Western Realm was bound to rebel, the same was true of the Flying Flame Land...... But when the turbulent first frustration of the era unfolded before his eyes, he still felt a little incredulous.

When walking through the Stone Mine, the magnetic light and the Purple Maple Knight did not appear. They probably didn't expect Ian to move so quickly, the two had just discussed joining forces and reached an agreement, and before they could continue to discuss, Ian had already set off in the afternoon and left Nauman City.

The Marquis of Barton must have known this, as Ian had felt the gaze of the Marquis's guards several times along the way, and did not disappear until he crossed the hilly area and officially stepped into the golden fields.

And on the 9th of June, Ian was about to arrive at the place where the 'Nine Whirling Abyss' was located.

He suddenly sensed that not far behind him, there was a familiar breath.

- Is the attack finally coming?

The boy thought so, and then clenched the charged water gun on his waist, ready to start fighting.

But soon, as the breath drew closer, he put the water gun back away.

"How could it be you?"

Ian turned his head and looked behind him helplessly.

"Ian!"

On the avenue behind him, two red-haired mountain people were riding horses, approaching him.

One was Theo, who was still the same as before, running over with an excited face.

The other, in turn, is another old acquaintance of Ian.

The former mercenary leader of Port Harrison, the mountain man Lübeck.

"You ......"

He looked at Ian and then at Theo with a look of astonishment, and the mountain people looked back and forth at the two of them, their eyes full of disbelief: "You know each other?!" ”

And Theo also turned his head in surprise, he used the same posture as Lübeck, looking at Lübeck from time to time, and Ian from time to time: "Huh? Do you know? ”

Truth be told, Ian wanted to ask the same thing.

So, when the two of them rode their horses to his side, the young man said curiously, "Long time no see, Theo...... And Uncle Lübeck. ”

"You two...... Know? ”
