Chapter 14: Scott's Progression (Chapter)
The headless corpse of the leading knight collapsed to the ground, and then Ian raised his hand again, his indifferent eyes sweeping over the other mountain knights who had just shown terrifying expressions.
He lifted his finger and tapped it five times.
Then there were five terrible supersonic explosions, and five more headless corpses collapsed to the ground.
And so it ended.
Relaxed, simple and cozy. There was no need for any other nonsense, Ian's biggest target and enemy was just sent to him by Colonel Mayova and made it easy for him to slaughter.
"Hey."
After killing these mountain knights with a few heads, Ian sighed, but his tone was cheerful: "Not all sublimators have good headsβat least these six people together may not be as smart as Gul (the former captain of the escort) who left in the early hours of yesterday morning." β
This is the Lean Territory, which was occupied by the mountain people a few days ago, and the only person who has contact with the outside world is Ian - including the information about Nauman City is also from Ian's mouth.
How unwary do these mountain knights have to be to trust all the information from Nauman? Aren't they afraid that the Marquis of Barton and Ian are in the same boat?
Obviously, judging by the results, they didn't think about it at all.
Died purely of stupidity.
"Scott, dispose of the body, call the soldiers over and cremate them with beam guns."
Ian instructed, "What reason do I want to use...... Forget it, just write missing. If it really doesn't work, I will write that they were attacked by the berserk Sharp-clawed Tiger when they were halfway there, and they all died, very miserable, and the corpses were not complete. β
"In order to prevent the fungal infection from spreading in the Flarelands, I was immediately cremated...... As for the ashes, they were accidentally lost on the way back to Nauman City, and they were blown away by the wind. β
Now, Ian also understands why Viscount Grant would write such subtle and perfunctory answers as 'killed by an ironclad shark in a great storm' and 'disappeared anyway' in the cause of death of two Harrison Port Judges...... Because as long as these people are killed, the reason doesn't matter at all, and no one will avenge them anyway.
Blame them for being stupid.
Now, Ian is the only surviving 'Lord Knight' in Ryan Territory - and he, the only surviving Lord Knight, has repelled the rebellious mountain people and the Hanging Peaks.
As long as he can repel the vanguard forces of most of the mountain people in the future, then it is certain that he will become the lord of the all-Ryan lord and become an official nobleman.
"Yes, sir!"
Scott immediately prepares to dispose of the headless corpses in front of him, and Ian notices a hint of envy and refreshment in his adjutant's gaze.
Obviously, the Sublimator does not need any intrigue and trickery, as long as the time comes, he can instantly destroy the opponent's power...... For smart people in the true sense of the word, it is the most desirable to have.
"How?"
The young man smiled: "Envious? β
"Ah, this ...... Adult ......"
Noticing Scott's expression of being a little flustered and wanting to explain, but not knowing how to explain in the end, Ian smiled and patted the other party's shoulder: "Don't worry, I see that your handwriting has been good lately, and your academic level has indeed met the requirements...... There is no doubt that you can definitely be a good sublimator. β
"Now the materials are not enough, when the territory is stable, I will personally refine the potion for you."
Speaking of this, it was Ian himself who groaned: "But I have to choose a better bloodline true form inheritance for you......"
It's not a pie, and this does need to be carefully considered.
Ian's current team is actually not fully assembled, his younger brother Elan is studying in Huaiguang, as long as he provides enough resources, he doesn't have to worry too much about the future, at most, he will ask Bishop White Mist when the time comes, what is the process of the priesthood on their side.
Although it seems that the Huaiguang Church's madness may be the mildest among the major forces in the Terra Continent, it is also crazy in the final analysis, and it may be strange that they are in essence.
Qingchao himself is already at the peak of the first energy level, and he can reach the second energy level as long as he waits for the potion, but Ian asked him to slow down and exercise his body to repair the dark injury, Ian thinks that he can take advantage of the current time when the sequelae of the low-energy level conversion inheritance are not large, and transform him into the true form of the 'Tide Messenger' with greater potential.
The Waverider and the Tidebringer, no matter how you look at it, are the true forms of the latter with greater potential and the power of the tides, and can work with the shark to help him build a foundation in the navy in the future.
As for the shark, it is now an Aurora Titan shark, and it is estimated that it will take this path in the future.
If you want to progress in the future, in addition to increasing the number of people, sharpen the power of the Dead King itself, self-improvement is also a way - after all, the Dead Lord is not completely dependent on the inheritance of the power of the Dead Soul, and if you look at the Grand Duke of Thorin next door, you will know that the Dead Soul is an auxiliary and amplifier most of the time.
Looking at it this way, Scott has no corresponding path to follow.
"What legacy do you want?"
Thinking of this, Ian thought it would be better to ask Scott himself, "What kind of abilities do you like?" A legacy that makes you feel interesting and thinks you're good at? β
"Whatever you want." Ian was in a good mood right now: "I'll prepare the potion materials then." β
Scott opened his mouth, subconsciously wanting to say, 'I don't think so,' but he knew that Ian wasn't saying it politely or tentatively.
The other party is really thinking about what kind of potion he should choose for himself...... to decide your own future.
"I think ......," Scott pondered, and finally came to a conclusion, "I want someone who is tough enough to protect your legacy at a critical time." Although you may not need armor, my lord, if someone assassinates me at the critical moment, then I should be a shield. β
- Do you want to be a strong city?
Ian was expressionless on the surface, but he felt a little nervous in his heart: "I don't need a meat shield at all, okay, even if you really can't repair the fortified city, you can't block the gun for me." β
- No, you have to change it.
"Good idea."
Although he thought so in his heart, on the surface, Ian still praised Scott: "But as you said, I am armored, and there may be aether armament in the future, and the fairy inheritance is not such an easy inheritance...... So the demand for this is actually not high. β
"Scott, what I want is the inheritance you really want for yourself, not for my inheritance - what the sublimator wants to implement is his own desires and dreams, for me, it may be one of your ideas, but only true love can stick to it."
- I just really want to be your shield?
Scott was also a little confused, in fact, most of the sublimator lieutenants and guards in the Terra continent did have this idea, but since Ian had euphemistically stated that he didn't need it, the Iron People thought about it, and then thought of the story that Ian had told back then.
"If I could, I think, it would be better for the Aurora Titan." He said, "It is said that it is very fast, so in this way, you can help you deal with a lot of things." β
"But I still want a little extra defense, so that at the very least, I can guarantee my own life, not just die in the aftermath of the battlefield."
This is also what Scott really thinks after seeing the power of the charged rifle - the first level of the sublimator is as vulnerable as ordinary people in the face of the salvo of this alchemical weapon, and without some defense, he is afraid that he will not have time to do anything, and he will inexplicably die in a stray bullet.
The second energy level doesn't have this problem, but the second energy level is originally the threshold of the nobles, if he wants to become the second energy level, at least Ian must also have the third energy level, and become a big noble reserve, right?
That's too far away.
"Is it fast...... That's fine. β
Ian nodded thoughtfully, if Scott also wanted the Aurora Titan, then it was true, he had refined relevant potions for sharks, and he had experience.
Moreover, as Scott himself said, the Aurora Titan's ability to manipulate electromagnetism and light is indeed very suitable for the weapons and equipment developed by Ian in the future, 'Prism Armament' and 'Magnetic Storm Armament'.
In this way, as his lieutenant and one of the commanders of the future cutting-edge troops, the Aurora Titan is really Scott's best choice.
And most importantly, the defense that Scott wants is actually not a difficult thing.
"Psionic empowerment."
Ian thought of sharing the Dead King's abilities: "One of the two psionic abilities I'll develop in the future...... Nether Armor, Shelter Realm, which is clearly perfect for Scott's request. β
"In addition to the true form of the bloodline, it can also additionally allow the sublimator to obtain the power of the 'divine art' system."
Perhaps, it was because of this that he thought about how to share the power of the Dead King?
Think so...... Scott could well be the first patron under his command. And it was on this basis that he developed the subsequent true form inheritance related to the 'Knights of Protection'.
And at this moment, Ian couldn't help but recall the divine power behind the Magneto-Light Knight...... Although Ian can't be sure who the person behind the other party is now, he blindly guesses that it must be the top of the empire, and it has something to do with the four major Orthodox churches.
Otherwise, Marquis Batun's attitude towards the Magnetic Light Knight would not be so subtle, he must have known some inside stories, so he didn't take action himself, but let himself use the power of the Dragon Worship Sect to eliminate him.
There are other people in Terra who are working on this technology, and they can't feel like they are unique.
"But it's definitely the fastest."
"After all, I'm a prophetβI've foreseen my success, and you're probably still on a fork in the road."
The Prophet connected the future with the present, and Ian couldn't help but smile slightly: "The first Knight of Shelter has already booked a place, so who is the future 'Vengeance Messenger'?" β
I'll leave that for the future.
At this moment, Scott's future potions and development were decided, and Ian continued to take the other party to work.
And at the same time.
- Headquarters of the rebel hillmen.
- Nanling Midra Autonomous Region.
A quarrel between the Flame Land envoy and the leader of the rebel mountain people is raging.
Recently, the schedule has gradually become normal.,The update at noon is not long.,At night, it can be a bigger chapter.
It doesn't feel like it's as good as resuming the 8 a.m. update, what do you think?
