Chapter 769 The emotion of the vehicle killer Ian (22)
Before boarding the Siren, Ian first went to Nauman City, and reported his movements and choices to the real noble brother of Nanling, the Marquis of Barton.
This is human nature, and it is also a manifestation of courtesy—Ian has already completed all the formalities for going abroad through the channels of the Royal Alchemy Association, and Anfa has also processed the relevant entry documents for him. All the way to the next.
However, as an aristocrat of Nanling, if Ian wants to leave Nanling, he must personally speak with the Marquis of Barton, meet him, have a meal together, say goodbye before leaving.
This is not a rule, it's just to save face.
And a young genius like Ian didn't leave directly by himself in a young and energetic way, thinking that his relationship can handle everything, but came over to have lunch with him, and humbly expressed that his territory still needs a big brother The Marquis of Barton is naturally very satisfied with the care.
So, he told Ian a rather confidential news.
"The former biological director of the Institute of Gnosis, Master Grave Feiye is going to return to his hometown to contribute to the development of Canaan Moore. To this end, Canaan Moore officially dispatched their diplomatic ship 'Siren', and the passengers on it Not many, but they are all famous, and Master Gravey is the most prestigious one."
The Marquis of Barton inserted a piece of smoked fish with his own knife, and said lightly: "The Gnosis Academy doesn't really want him to go back safely."
"Master Gravey is an extremely rare bio-alchemy genius in our empire. The 'Permanent Power Potion' he took the lead in developing is a high-level alchemy potion that can directly enhance a sublimator's physical fitness. If the cost is not too expensive, and it can enhance The upper limit of physical strength is not high, this is probably an epoch-making great change."
"Even so, the 'Pioneer Potion' transformed from the permanent strength potion, although effective for a short period of time, can greatly improve anyone's physical fitness in a short period of time, and it has become a must-have potion for the elite troops of the empire. It is the second life when fighting for life."
"If it weren't for Master Gravey's old age, the Academy of Gnosis would not be willing to let him return to Canaan Moore anyway."
"But they are still preparing to attack." Ian raised his eyebrows. Not only is he not unfamiliar with this situation, but he is quite familiar with it: "Such a master who can be equivalent to an army, even if his brain is not working well, so Years of research data must also be very precious... Is this what the Institute of Intellectual Intelligence is going to do?"
"yes."
The Marquis of Barton glanced at Ian appreciatively, and he raised his knife and waved it casually: "The Institute of the Intellect will not use drastic measures—although you may disagree with it, the Institute of the Intellect will never 'force' a person To do something. They will induce, create accidents, pay for their lives, people have to follow them ... They will not leave a 100% clue."
"This time they will definitely take action. Although the Siren is safe, and the captain 'Tidewalker' Elden is a strong third-level powerhouse, they will definitely be in a hurry when encountering the chaos they carefully prepared. Got it by them."
"Ian, this time you are invited by the Ember Lantern Department (the elf department where Anfa is located), and you are also going to Canaan Moore as the Dragon Worshiper to participate in the exploration of the Great Ruins. Give the Academy of Gnosis 10,000 courage, they It is impossible to do anything to you, so this time is an opportunity."
"Chance…"
Ian was thoughtful, he also raised his glass and took a sip of grape juice: "You mean..."
"Both the Second Prince and the First Prince sent their own people to Canaan Moore."
The Marquis of Barton did not answer Ian's question. He said bluntly: "But this time, the eldest prince will personally lead the team, while the second prince needs to be in the west—this is not good for the second prince, but it is also a trade-off."
"Ian, dancing on two eggs is a test. Smart people appreciate their dexterity, but it's better not to play too much... This world is like a game, no matter what, someone will win in the end."
"If you don't want to lose, it's best not to choose. If you have to choose, then just choose one side."
“…assuming this is your suggestion.”
Ian was silent for a while, and he said thoughtfully: "Then I agree."
"But I think that things may not be that complicated. As long as I serve the empire, then I will not lose."
"You're smarter than me."
The Marquis of Barton nodded slightly. He glanced at Ian appreciatively, and then sighed: "Yes, this is also the privilege of a genius like you. By the way, the second prince has something to tell you."
"He said, the results of the Avak collar came out, if you want, you can get it now."
The communication with the Marquis of Barton has always been simple and complicated.
The simplicity is that the Marquis of Barton defaulted that Ian could understand all his subtext, so all the information, advice, thoughts and judgments would be expressed in one conversation, and only half of them would be said each time.
The complication is that this person is really good at riddles and adding information to his words.
To put it simply, the Marquis of Barton told Ian that there were a group of very important people on the Canaan Moor ship "Siren" he took this time from the empire to Canaan Moor, and among them, there was a person named Gera Vi's master bioalchemist.
This master alchemist has made countless achievements, and he almost became a master who changed the world... Rather, he already has this achievement, but he was suppressed because of his status as an immigrant elf.
Such an old master wants to return to his roots. Under the background of the current friendship between the empire and Canaan Moore, neither country can stop him from stumbling.
Of course, the Gnosia Institute did not dare to do anything to such a key person, but they did not want their confidential research materials to be given to Canaan Moore for nothing, so they arranged an accident—whatever it was, what happened to the Gnosia Institute Could do it all, unimaginable brutes—and in those days, they'd destroy Master Gravey's research.
Even the most powerful master, it is impossible to start all over again after losing the research data, and with the lifespan of Master Gravey, even if he is really a master craftsman, he will not be able to reproduce the experimental results.
In other words, the Institute of the Intellectual will definitely succeed.
But Ian had the opportunity to try to 'rescue' Master Gravey's research data while taking advantage of the confusion.
Both the eldest prince and the second prince are very interested in the data stored in the Institute of the Intellectual Academy.
But, here, the Marquis of Barton warned Ian.
He already knew that the representative of the eldest prince came to Xiahui to negotiate a part of the cooperation with Ian. He also knew that the development of the Chongling Sect under Ian's command had been acquiesced by the eldest prince, and had given green light all the way to the imperial capital.
That's why he warned Ian, who appeared to be under the second prince's command on the surface, not to dance on the tip of a needle.
If he is really ready to make a move and determine which camp he is in, he has to choose one.
Wall grass has never been good.
But Ian doesn't care about it - he doesn't really support anyone, whoever is on the throne.
In other words, if he really did it and got the information, it must be the first prince and the second prince each, and he has to study it himself.
Such an attitude, if it is an ordinary person, will definitely be ridiculed, 'what are you, people still need you when they are on the throne? '.
But he is Ian after all!
Whether it is the first prince, the second prince, or the first princess, who doesn't need him, the future master or even the grand master?
That's why the Marquis of Barton is also quite emotional-a truly smart person, even if he doesn't rely on tactics, can live well by his ability... This is invincibility in the true sense.
Just imagine, who would refuse Ian to be on his side? Even if this young man doesn't seem to be so loyal, other people will lean over if they give him some food... But as long as he also gives some food, the other party will come back fairly and justly.
In this way, loyalty is not the most important thing, but ability is the most important thing.
As for the end, the result of the Avak collar that the second prince said...
In fact, Mikhail has already figured out which part of the spiritual power inheritance the Avak received related to the experimental content and the Grand Duke received.
He sorted out a copy and sent it to the Marquis of Barton, asking the other party to ask Ian if Ian also wanted to know the contents of this copy of Inaiga's legacy.
Can Ian still refuse? He must have accepted it!
Moreover, this can be regarded as a sigh of relief for Ian.
The psychic heritage of the Grand Duchy is about the spiritual fire and related derivative technologies.
As long as he got this inheritance, even if he really exposed the artificial soul in the territory, it can be completely explained!
This is indeed a great gift, and Ian thanked the Marquis of Barton repeatedly on the spot, praising the generosity of the second prince.
Seeing Ian's happy appearance, people like the Marquis of Barton also felt quite happy—it is quite rare for Ian to flatter him from the bottom of his heart, and he has a sense of accomplishment.
So, after lunch, when Ian was about to board the Siren, Barton gave the final message at the door of his office.
"It's actually a good thing that you choose the identity of Dragon Worship Sect."
Marquis Barton said: "Although the empire has formed an alliance with Canaan Moor, there have always been many forces within the elves entangled with each other. The ten major tribes of elves behind the council are roughly divided into two factions."
"Your friend Anfa, the Ember Lantern Department behind him is one of the ten king-blood tribes in the old elf royal court, and also the faction in the elf council that favors the empire, and is our true ally—you contact Anfa in your personal capacity It’s a good thing, because half of the Canaan Moore exploration team on the surface is more inclined to the faction of the Heavenly Royal Court.”
"You can explore the ancient ruins from another angle with the Dragon Worshipers... Maybe the Dragon Worship team is safer than the Canaan Moore official exploration team that will definitely have a civil war in the ruins."
In fact, more than that.
Now, Ian, who really boarded the Siren, feels that there is no need to wait until he enters the ancient ruins of the Alien Research Institute to fight among himself. The civil war within the Elf Council has already begun from now on.
Because, the boy had only walked less than 500 steps on the Siren, and he saw three killers from different forces, a spy of the empire, a trap to lure monsters, and a man who obviously had a very serious secret hidden in his heart. The secret alchemist.
And... in the cabin, the weird golden package faintly shining in the silver light.
"There are so many demons and ghosts on this ship."
Looking at the back of Master Gravey, Ian couldn't help feeling in his heart: "All parties are fighting each other and guarding each other. It seems that there will be a fight in the next second, but they maintain a delicate balance."
"Now I'm beginning to wonder if this ship can sail to Canaan Moore."
Recommend a friend's book "Changing the World from Hogwarts"!
The school is fighting on its own, using indiscriminate methods in the name of competition.
The wizards are not united, playing around with stupid bloodlines and status.
Denying history, whitewashing cruelty, exaggerating peace, thinking that they are living in a peaceful and prosperous age.
Therefore, we need a new order.
This is based on certain textual research and occultism, and purely plot-oriented fans. The beginning you see may not be the beginning you think, and there is no personal conspiracy theory, but it will not deify the old man who is the principal.
