Chapter 623: On the Lonely Mountain (Second Shift, 5400)
In this place of the imperial capital, there is no investment if you are not in the limelight, there is no connection, and it is even more uncomfortable than a small place, because there is never a shortage of talents, and if you can't maintain your popularity, it will pass quickly
But for Ian, he can't be too famous, and once he is too famous, he will be noticed by the upper echelons of the empire.
"Gotta run.
Jen 6
Ian made up his mind: "The sooner the better!"
After making up his mind to run, Ian did not leave the imperial capital immediately and nervously, but conceived several plans, one- Make a prediction-
With his cyclops armor on his own, he left immediately without stopping at all.
Frost Butterfly and Birch have not changed, they are still dead-black and red.
"It seems that they are already observing me, and my hasty departure will definitely cause suspicion." Ian wasn't surprised, although his other identities were constantly being seen through, but
The core secret has been well protected.
This is all thanks to the fact that Ian is not suspicious, his identity is innocent, and occasionally there are suspicions, and the identity that the Chehalorvo family hopes can be concealed.
But this is dancing on a tightrope - once suspicious and seriously inquired, Ian's resume will be flawed, and the flaws will continue to expand, and it is very likely that all his secrets will be revealed
Dew.
Therefore, you can't run right away, you have to dispel your suspicions, find an excuse, or make the people who care about you stop paying attention to you.
Allegria was interested in her own design, which was the cause of her concern, but she was not allowed to participate in the design competition.
So, the second kind -
Give the design of the Cyclops to Isengard and let him participate in the design in the name of the Ellen family.
I just want to repay Esengard for its help all the time.
Will this dispel suspicions and make his departure from the imperial capital seem less abrupt?
The black-red color has not changed.
But Ian was keenly aware that the black mist on Birch's body flickered, which meant that although it was also certain to die, the reason for certain death, time and place
Changed. 2
It's good and it works.
He patiently continued to try to think about the next possibilities, and asked Isengard for other information: "What other big people in the imperial capital will come?"
Esengard didn't know why Ian cared so much about these things, but the other party wanted to know, so he happily replied, "Don't talk about those royals, the two marquis of the Northlands."
and two counts, my father was the one in the lead.
"The five Earls from the Western Realm have already arrived, and I watched their faces change all day today." Jen 1
"The Eastern Grand Duke Aishad family is the main group of people, there is nothing to say, they are not like the Thorin family was suppressed by the first emperor very early, so they avoided His Majesty's iron blood
Purge, this generation of the Grand Duke of the Eastern Realm is the most loyal supporter of our Majesty.
"And over there in the Icewind Autonomous Region, the envoy of the Governor of White Silence is the king of the Icewind Butterfly, and he will not leave his lair unless it is a matter of vital importance, the envoy of the pool
One of his finest sons, along with three Icewind Lords.
"It is said that the Marquis of Batun of Nanling will also come, the three governors of the Inland Sea and the Fog Yarn are here, and the Twelve Knights have at least come to the deputy commander, and it is also the matter of the Junling Fort
Many. ”
"That's probably all there is to it, but there are actually quite a few, but I can't remember the names."
Isengard was a little sorry, but Ian had a picture in mind: "Because the transportation in this world is very convenient, the big guys really have to come and go, so it's fast
So many forces and so many mountains, gathered together, if it weren't for Axel being the fifth energy level and having absolute violent support, no emperor would be able to suppress it. ”
"And this is only the aristocracy, there are many forces in the imperial capital, such as the Gnostic Academy, the Guardian Knights, and the Mirror Sea - it's just a political quagmire, not enough
The people of Ge went in and melted quietly, and there was no sound at all. ”
"Axel must have something big to announce, not just a war with the Flamelands, but even a rebellion against the Flamelands fortress complex.
"I think about what's special new lately – the shorter the better, and the shorter the things get bigger." 1
Within seconds, Ian retrieved the corresponding information from the memory bank—
An envoy from the Canaan-Moorish Federation came to the imperial capital.
Yes, this is it!
As we all know, the shorter the word, the bigger the matter.
When an envoy of a country comes to the imperial capital of a country, all the news is just this line, and the things behind this must be heavenly!
In this case, the eldest princess's attention to herself cannot be regarded as the first priority, as long as there is a normal enough reason, she will definitely not keep thinking "why is Ian leaving the imperial capital?"
As long as there is a reason for the past, no one will really care about his suspicions.
"Ethan."
Ian spoke, he pondered, and said in a slow tone, "When I was researching the most potent potion some time ago, I had actually faxed the home of our Chehalorvo family
The shape of the "Silver Peak Emissary's potion is almost repaired.
As soon as he said this, he immediately noticed that the black-red mist on Birch and Frost Butterfly began to change—although it was still chaotic, it was better than the predestined death
How many times. 1
Very good.
Ian took advantage of the situation to pursue, and he continued: "You know, I already have a territory in Nanling, and now the situation is turbulent, and Nanling is also quite chaotic, I have to go back and take a look
situation, stabilize my territory, and then make the next plans.
"At the end of the day, there are so many big people in the Imperial Capital that I can't do it—just like you don't want to go back to the Northlands and want to avoid your father, I'll stay
The imperial capital also feels the same way, and if it continues, it is nothing more than to continue to do some research and get some rewards. ”
"What about getting a lot of money? It doesn't make my family revive and my territory prosperous.
"It's even more so now, the imperial capital has gathered so many high-level powerhouses, rather than blending in, or watching from the sidelines, I might as well leave as soon as possible."
"Now that the cyclops has been roughly completed, coupled with my second-level strength, it is enough to make a world in Nanling."
Ian said this, he wasn't lying, it was really part of what he really thought.
He just planned to return to Nanling after a while, but it should be a month later, when he had finished all the experiments in the imperial capital laboratory before leaving.
But Ian was also ready to leave at any time.
"Is that so?
Although Isengard showed a reluctant expression, he had long understood that he had seen all of Ian's abnormalities in the recent period, and of course he was not surprised that the other party wanted to leave
Fa: "But it's okay to participate in the design competition
Ian lowered his eyes, and he said seriously: "It's up to you to submit, Cyclops was originally developed by us together."
"You take it and I take it, it's all the same.
It was impossible for Isengard to refuse Ian's offer, because the white-haired boy was so determined that he was bent on returning to Southridge.
So he could only nod: "Okay, although it's a bit of a pity, it's not a big problem."
"But before leaving, you should also prepare more supplies and information about Nanling, right?" 1]
This is indeed a very good proposal.
Ian couldn't have left that night, it was a little too weird - a few days would be just right, and if you endure these two days, you won't be suspicious. Jen 11
"I'll go collect it.
Ian breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the fog on Birch and Frostbutterfly was fading all the way to the point of becoming almost nothing.
11 ]
He smiled and said to his friend: "I have to ask you to help me prepare some supplies, otherwise, with my channels, I will definitely not be able to set up a supply truck so quickly."
Team.
"Of course. I'll help you organize a group of people, including craftsmen and craftsmen. Isengard couldn't help but laugh too, and then sighed again: "I just don't know."
When will we see each other next? ”
"I don't think it's going to be too long."
Ian raised his eyebrows and said, "You guys come back from the Ice Wind Fortress and you don't have to go back to the imperial capital directly, wouldn't it be good to come to my territory to see when the time comes?"
"Yes." The blonde boy laughed too.
"Miss Leprechauns!"
After chatting with Esengard about the next charter, Ian turned to Birch Frost Butterfly and said, "We'll go back to Southridge in a few days!" Frost Butterfly, are you accompanying me to the territory, or with the birch
Go back to your birthplace?"
"Going to Southridge? It just so happens that I also think that after Mo Feng is gone, the emperor is a little bored!"
Birch was playing with a walnut on his parasol staff, and when he heard this, he immediately happily turned the walnut into a mass of "yes" subtitles in midair
Dust. {14
And Frost Butterfly is cheering and drumming: "The birch seniors are so powerful!" Jen 5]
The fog on the two goblins has completely returned to normal, and Ian's 'family revival, territory preparation' combination punch down, no matter who he is, he will feel that he has returned to Nanling
It is reasonable, but it is strange not to return to Nanling.
As for returning to Nanling, Frost Butterfly didn't feel anything.
Although the hometown of Frost Butterfly is the Great Labyrinth of the South China Sea, the place with the most real memories is still in the imperial capital, but because the time is relatively short and the imperial capital is also very large, the memory is not
It's too profound.
As long as you follow familiar people, then everywhere is a good place for frost butterflies. 2 1
"Then you can accompany Hua Huang to his hometown to see the situation." Jen 2]
Seeing this, Ian felt that there was no choice, anyway, after he got the preliminary matters of the territory, he also had to return to Harrison Port One, his identity as the master of the labyrinth, and the shark
Qingchao and Scott, they are all ready to pull over.

In this case, it is better to let Frostbutterfly continue to study with the real goblin for a while, although I don't know what I can learn, but it is better than being my own pendant.
With the strength of Frost Butterfly, it is unrealistic for Bi Jing to provide himself with a prophecy on trivial matters.
After everything was done and this huge crisis was completely wiped out, Ian, who felt tired, went to sleep.
Although the second energy level can completely eliminate the need for sleep, the consumption of the foresight is still better to recover after a little more sleep-
The night passed.
Another night passed.
113 ]
Soon, the time had come for Ian to leave the imperial capital.
Meanwhile.
Terra 773, October 8.
The Settar Empire, the imperial capital of Uptown.
Above the middle half of the lonely mountain is the Shangcheng District in the popular sense, where all the sublimators of the third energy level and above in the imperial capital have residences, even if they are theoretically unified
The great nobles of the imperial capital who ruled the lower city also had their own homes in the upper city.
Higher-level ascendants rarely travel to Midtown and Downtown, except for work. For if they naturally show their strength and walk on the earth in an unrestrained form
Above, it will bring great change and destruction to the surrounding area.
Only in Shangcheng District, with the suppression of the imperial capital force field, can they live more comfortably.
In addition, Mika El Setar, the second prince of the empire, knows a more secret information.
That is, all the high-level sublimators of the Imperial Capital, at critical moments, are the pilots of the Imperial Capital Force Field Generator - and part of the structure. Jen 3]
Contrary to what everyone imagined, the Imperial Capital was not a dead thing, it was not just a simple pre-epoch civilization megastructure, but a pre-epoch civilization that absorbed aliens
After the Tinder Ship of Civilization, a huge biofortress was created in imitation of its supreme technology "Bioplanet Shield Generator". Jen 4
Or a living refuge.
The emperor is alive. It is an elder who has survived the disaster of the fall from the sky and survived thousands of years of wind and frost, and has extremely powerful power in the fifth energy level, see
It testifies to the many storms and wars in this land.
I am afraid that the only thing that can be compared to it is the World Tree of the Canaan-Moore Federation.
It's also funny, the world tree of the elves is not a thing, but it can't be said that he is not alive.
The imperial capital, on the other hand, is a living creature, but it has no self-will.
Therefore, if in a critical moment, if you want to let the imperial capital exert its maximum power, someone needs to control it and exert its true power. 11]
Many nobles and exalted people living in the imperial capital, after proving their loyalty, will be given the right to manipulate a part of the imperial capital structure, and when needed, they will respond to enemy attacks or defend against natural disasters.
But apart from the fifth energy level, who else can control a fifth energy level body?
Even at the fifth energy level, if there is no strong enough physical body, no strong enough will, and no extraordinary essentia endurance, who can perfectly control the imperial capital
Take control of this 10,000-meter-high city of lonely mountains and unleash its incredible power?
So there is that legacy.
[Fudo Fortunjo] Ren 4]
Gathering the resources of the entire empire, the highest level of truth deduced and designed, the inheritance named after the imperial capital. { 17]
However, it has not yet had time to be fully completed, and most of the information was lost in the Dark Moon Turmoil.
And without the cooperation of a sublimator with the potential of the fifth energy level to carry out the experiment, it is almost impossible to recreate the Immovable Fortified City.
As a child, Mikael had the privilege of meeting the First Horseman. The mere existence of that calm and reliable knight makes people feel extremely reassured, as if in this world-
Danger and danger are no longer obstacles.
When he stood beside his grandfather, the coercion of the two fifth-level powerhouses was like the sky and the earth, occupying the entire world. Jen 1
Perhaps, only such a man can completely complete the inheritance of the immovable strong city and be able to harness the power of the imperial capital. Jen 1
"There are always reminders of something from the past. ”
Laughing one by one, he walked through the streets of the upper city, beside him the newly renovated buildings and many majestic palaces and mansions after the Dark Moon Turmoil, and Mikael shook slightly
Head: "The current imperial capital is no longer able to give people an indestructible sense of security as it did in the past."
"Otherwise, Ian's little guy wouldn't have left in such a hurry." 3]
Since the day before yesterday, after learning the news that Ian was preparing to leave the imperial capital and return to Nanling, the second prince, who had been quite high-spirited recently, couldn't help but feel a little emotional. 1
As the revivalist of the Chehalorvo family and one of the heirs of his grandfather's estate, Ian has always been on his radar, and he has never disappointed him, giving it every time
What a surprise.
Whether it is the reuse of alchemy technology at the beginning, or the extremely powerful potion later, it is a pioneering technique that can obtain the title of master as long as you continue to go deeper-he
There is no doubt that he is a future alchemist, or even a grandmaster, and Mikael, who has always thought that Ian is clumsy, dares to swear that this seemingly humble and polite, gentle and smiling white people
The boy is actually a scheming guy with a deep heart and a deep city.
He definitely hides more than one hand, and he will definitely not be exposed until the critical period.
It's like this time--being affected by the aftermath of King Tianhong, In order to save his life, he was forced to advance to the second energy level-what are you kidding, I really thought that he couldn't see that this kid had already been
Four or five years before the first energy level? That kind of reaction speed and proficiency in essentia manipulation is not something that can only be explained by heaven. Jen 3]
With Ian's talent, as long as he is ready, he can try to break through the second-level at any time. 1]
But in order not to attract attention, he had to wait until he had to.
The same is true for the talent for armor design, and after seeing the composition of the Cyclops submitted by Isengard yesterday, Mikael knew that what Ian was hiding was serious
Many.
Although the main core technology is still the cheap light rope potion and the alchemical aspect of the alchemy design that is combined with part of the Eren family, how is it possible with Mikael's talent
Can't you see Ian's near-innate familiarity with machines? But not everyone can just put it together, and with a few old-fashioned armor pieces - the platform can walk smoothly
A new airframe that flies stably without any weapon system mistakes! 2 2
So he didn't want to stay in the imperial capital.
Stay in this place that is too easy to attract attention.
"If it weren't necessary, I wouldn't want to stand here and stand in the mountains." Jen 11
With that in mind, Mikael strode towards the largest complex in the upper town.
The royal palace of the royal family of the Sertar Empire.
The rebuilt palace is no different from before the Dark Moon Turmoil, it is still as majestic and magnificent, and the tower of the lonely mountain on one side stands tall here, it is like a hand, reaching out to nothing
The heavenly dome on the side, to grasp the sun and the moon in the heart of learning. Jen 2
As soon as he entered the palace, Mikael saw his old friend, Count Wiesna of the East, who was following behind the Grand Duke of the East, Asuka Aishad, with a Bun in his hand
said something to the Archduke, who was quite young, less than twenty years old, with a serious face. Jen 4
I guess I was telling the young duke what to do when he saw his father and queen. They used the Silence Circle, which didn't make sense to Mikael, but no
It is also a virtue of self-discipline to know something.
Moreover, etiquette is meaningless, the powerhouses of the Terra continent always don't care about stereotypical etiquette, which only mortals who can't see through people's hearts will care
After all, who would be when the emperor of the empire could easily see if his courtiers were true to him, and could even listen to the chirping of insects thousands of miles away with great power
What about the things that don't matter?
As long as there is respect from the heart and a minimum of etiquette, there will be no problem, and with the solemn and cautious expression on the face of the Grand Duke of Edom, Mikael does not think that there is much of a problem.
Count Wiesner's eyes lit up when he saw Mikael, and Archduke Aishard also turned around, and the two sides nodded to each other, and then the Grand Duke and his party walked into the side hall.
Mikael looked at each other, the big meeting was still a while away, they were definitely still preparing.
And he is not the same - no matter what the relationship is, he is a prince, and the palace is his home.
So he went straight to the deepest part of the palace to meet his father.
That emperor is the only one. Jen 8
