Chapter 578: Ian and Frostbutterfly's New Vest (2/3)
And it is precisely because the Dead Lord can devour the souls of the creatures he kills, and then strengthen himself.
Therefore, for those teams that are relatively weak and want to enter the subspace, the Dead King will take laissez-faire measures.
On the contrary, it was the forces in the original laboratory, such as the Gnostic Academy, who were bent on stopping those individuals and teams exploring the subspace.
Of course, the Huaiguang rescue team will not stop them, because the strength of the Huaiguang rescue team is indeed strong, and it will not be swallowed by the Dead King for no reason, and may even cause some damage to him - and that is when the laboratory forces launch a counterattack.
That's when Ian arrived.
Then Ian killed all the people of the Gnostic.
- It's hard to hold on. BY Gnostic Academy.
It's hard to tell whether Ian's move helped the Dead Monarch kill the enemies of the Dead Souls or lowered the upper limit of the Dead Monarch - after all, according to the current lively situation of the fourth energy level outside, there is a high probability that the Dead Monarch will destroy the laboratory, and then hatch it in a complete body, leaving the subspace labyrinth and going to the outside world.
But because of Ian's arrival, he killed all the people in the Gnosis Institute in advance, resulting in the Dead King being unable to absorb this group of people, so he had a flaw.
In this way, the Dead King should be the highest, that is, the third energy level.
However, the problem has not been solved.
According to Honagar, the Dead King is now blocking the exit of the labyrinth of subspace, waiting for someone to throw himself into the net...... As long as enough people come in, he can still regain his full prosperity.
"Interesting."
Here's Ian's assessment: "So, I did a good job of killing - indeed, no matter when, the person who killed the Gnocide must be right." β
And, too, Ian sensed a blind spot.
After eliminating the people of the Gnostic Academy, as long as he removed the Patrol Knight module from the Sky Wrapping Armor and changed the livery, then no one else would know his identity.
With his control over the body, he corrected his appearance a little, and the next action would be more convenient.
Especially now that Ian still has the aura of fear left over from the nightmare, his whole temperament has changed a lot now, and it is a good time to put on a vest!
When you think of it, you do it.
Soon, under the contrast of the ice mirror condensed by Frost Butterfly, Ian pinched his new face.
said that it was a new face, but it was actually Ian's appearance in his previous life.
The black-haired young man in armor looked handsome, his long black hair fell softly down his shoulders, his thin lips were tightly pursed, and his black eyes were a little indifferent, but the depths of his eyes flashed with the same silver-cyan light as before.
This is not much different from Terra - because genetic modification has been widely used by the whole people, and basically everyone is handsome and beautiful, at least there can be too ugly individuals.
At most, it is because of the conflict between the face pinched by the parents and the child's own aesthetics...... But that's not a big deal.
But. The temperament is still different.
In Terra's life, Ian can be said to have both the courage of a knight and the wisdom of a scholar, and there is a special affinity between his eyebrows and eyes, which makes people can't help but want to get close.
He usually walks in the city, in addition to the adults who want to help lead the way, there will even be children running to talk to him, and at that time Ian will also tease each other, belongs to the type of public lovers who are loved by everyone.
But in the previous life on Earth, because Ian had always been a researcher in that life, and basically did not socialize except for necessity, he had a kind of gloomy and impersonal feelings, although he was good-looking and handsome, but he was not easy to get along with.
Lack of sunlight, armor that seems to be hidden in the shadows after modifying the paint, a temperament that repels people thousands of miles away, and the terrifying aura of a nightmare entity......
Today's Ian looks very much like the kind of person who will change BGM when he appears, a murderer at a glance or a spell demon king.
"Father, you're so good!"
Frostbutterfly praised this.
Obviously, Ian's appearance in his previous life was also very in line with the elves, at least the aesthetics of the elves of the birch family, if I had to say, he was a bit like a scholar who stayed at home in the capital of knowledge.
And Ian glanced at the happy goblin, nodded solemnly and said, "Sure enough, I have to give you a facelift, otherwise it will still be easy to expose - bear with me, I'm going to color you." β
Frostbutterfly: "(_)"
Although the leprechaun had been staring at Ian pitifully, the boy β now a young man β mercilessly took a bottle of Shadow Potion from his belt bag and carefully applied it to Frostbutterfly.
Soon, the originally happy ice ice goblin has now turned into a dark shadow goblin.
It's hard to say if it's even a goblin, it's pitch black, and in the filter of the subspace labyrinth, even a sublimator is hard to see clearly.
"Not bad." Ian was satisfied: "It's very hidden now. β
Frostbutterfly: "(_)"
Frostbutterfly looks unhappy, but for Ian, it's no different from drinking too much coffee. Several times, Birch took the frost butterfly out to drink blueberry juice or strong coffee, and when she came back, she would turn black or blue.
"At least the Shadow Potion is sweet and can make you invisible!" Ian comforted, and when she heard that the potion was sweet, Frostbutterfly turned to joy, "yes, I'm sweet!" β
It's hard to figure out the point of the leprechauns.
The main reason why Ian was in such a hurry to re-pinch his face was because he remembered something.
- Since King Tianhong was forced to appear after his own people were all destroyed.
So after the researchers of the Gnosis Academy were completely wiped out by themselves, will the fourth-level powerhouse behind the Gnosis Academy also appear?
Even...... By some means, he can directly contact the subspace and see the reason for the destruction of his own forces?
Ian doesn't know for sure, but he'll be prepared in advance.
And it turns out that Ian's vigilance does make sense.
Because, when he used the lens of the Gnosis Academy's monitoring room to observe the outside world.
He heard a 'call' from the headquarters of the Gnosis Institute at the monitoring station.
In the monitoring room of the Gnostic Academy, you can see the outside world.
Mikael and King Tianhong are still fighting, and the outside camera can't see them still fighting high in the atmosphere, but it is only the aftermath, and the vision that stirs up the violent changes in the weather is exaggerated enough.
The skies of the entire Avak region had turned into a sea of thunder, and the blinding light flashed rapidly at the top of the sky, pouring beams of destruction into the earth, leaving all living beings in the region feeling fear and powerlessness, as if the end had descended.
But even so, Ian could see that there were many hidden teams in action in the area.
Knight of the Patrol, Royal Guardian of the Flame Lands, Special Operations Unit of the Gnostic, Knight of the Grand Duke...... As well as some mysterious troops with a high probability of being the Seven Cities Alliance or other unknown forces, and the personal force of some great nobles, they are all approaching the Central Laboratory.
Of course, they knew that it would be very dangerous to act rashly under the watchful eye of multiple fourth-level powersβbut the classified information in Avak's lab was worth risking.
"They're really not afraid of death."
Ian raised his eyebrows, and he sighed: "If Director Hornagar didn't lie to me, one of these people counts as one, and they are all the nourishment of the Dead Monarch - the more they send, the faster the Dead Monarch will grow." β
"Either I'll get Theo and the goblins out before they die, or I'll be dragged to death by these fools."
Just when Ian was complaining like this, an emergency communication suddenly came from the system in the monitoring room.
This communication could not be denied, apparently from a higher authority.
[Hornagal, what's going on?] γ
An illusory figure appeared in front of Ian, with a long, thick white beard, a deep angular face, and a pair of eyes like deep purple gems, majestic and deep.
Ian recognized the other party as the head of the Gnostic, Moser Harnak the 'Knower', who had almost staged an all-out martial arts with the Count of Phoenix in Uptown.
Dean Moze's projection looked around the scene in the monitoring room, and corpses all over the ground came into view, making him raise his eyebrows and look at Ian: [I know. After Plohill died, Hornagar could not carry the girder...... This knight, looking at his appearance, has a personal vendetta with our Gnostic Academy, right? γ
"So you know." Ian was a little surprised, he thought that the Gnostic Academy was a group of selfish and arrogant crazy scientific researchers with no self-awareness, but he didn't expect Dean Moze to be quite sensible, and he actually saw through at a glance that he dealt with the Gnosis Academy because he was unhappy with them.
So, instead, he laughed and mocked: "Don't pretend, I can see that you are very angry - how about it, the secret hand that was originally used as a hole card and was intended to be used to compete for information in the final period was killed by me, it feels uncomfortable, right?" β
[I don't expect you to understand our cause, stupid thugs]
Dean Moze looked calm, but even with the projection, Ian could completely see that he was actually quite angry in his heart: [This time, you win. But it's not over yet.]
[Tell me, who are you?] When the time comes, I can also write a pen on your tombstone, so that you will not die without a name or surname. γ
Ian scoffed at this clumsy agitation: "Me? I am your nightmare, the punishment for your wickedness, the snatcher of your knowledge. β
"As for the tombstones, keep them with your own names written on them."
"Remember to buy a bigger one, otherwise you may not be able to write it."
