Chapter 389 The Real Plan (23)

A very calm, but also very upright knight.

This is Yingguang's evaluation of Ian.

Obviously there is no reason, but he still acts with the sense of justice in his heart to fight against the Baron Ryan who is obviously much stronger than him.

The anger in his heart has never been extinguished, and he has pure and blazing anger, but it will not affect his thoughts due to anger.

Not only has he collected a lot of clues by virtue of his psychic power and alchemy knowledge, but he is also extremely capable of action.

Without Ian's assistance, Yingguang believes that it would be impossible to advance the investigation to this point in such a short period of time by relying on himself alone.

And when she finished her investigation, the baron's plan might have been completed.

"Have you found a clue?" the nun asked.

"Ah."

Hearing the collaborator's inquiry, Ian moved his eyes away from the information he found in the alchemy room, and nodded solemnly: "Baron Ryan wants to cooperate with a few psykers...to create a brand new one for his dead child. body."

"The information here is all manuscripts about alchemy artificial humans, and there are even records of practical operations on 'wraith possession' and 'psychic memory transfer'. The experimenters are those who have died, and the results are all the same. Pretty successful."

"Baron Ryan has done a lot of research in this area. He is actually a hidden elite alchemist!"

It is not surprising that Baron Ryan is an elite alchemist. He sits on one of the most critical production points of alchemy raw materials in Nanling. If he has not studied alchemy, it would be really incredible.

But what surprised Ian was that in the other party's alchemy laboratory, there were many experimental handbooks about "psychic alchemy" that were difficult to obtain even through the channel of Master Goser, "Wraith Possession" Body' and 'spiritual memory transfer' are the contents.

Alchemy is all-encompassing, and its content covers and surpasses the so-called 'science' content of Ian's previous life.

And outside the scope of science, there are also many weird small branches, and even broad roads, and psionic alchemy is one of them.

Psionic alchemy is more complicated. To put it simply, it is to use alchemy to achieve the effects that can only be achieved by various psionics. In essence, it is to use alchemy to explore the principles of psionics.

Cooperating with the inscription skill, you can create the expensive 'spiritual jewelry' that Ian has seen, held by Isengard and Master Goser.

Ian knows that on the continent of Terra where sublimators and psykers are the primary productive forces, this kind of research data is no less valuable than high-level spaceship design drawings. It will appear in the experiment of Baron Ryan, a nobleman from the South Ridge. In the room, there is only one possibility.

That was given to him by a great force.

As for which force it is...

echo.This one answer.

With the accumulation of evidence step by step, Ian is sure that this incident, not to mention being directly related to Axel, definitely involves the participation of high-level empire officials.

and……

He already knew Baron Ryan's real plan.

It's not just artificial humans... That insane, but extremely rational, extremely pathetic and hateful method...

Taking a deep breath, Ian withdrew his thoughts, and then said in a low voice through the helmet: "I have found the area where the baron might be located - next to this stack of materials is the topographic map of Lone Flame Peak, he must be there around the area."

"The next thing to do is to go to the side of Guyan Peak and search for..."

"It's in the canyon next to the third barrier lake in Guyan Peak."

At this moment, Manager Moda, who had finished his confession, suddenly said: "That's where the madam and the young master died. If the master really wants to go to Guyan Peak, he can only go there."

Both Ian and Sister Reflecting Light looked at the old steward in surprise, and the old man had already closed his eyes, sitting at the side of the corridor, praying softly.

"Give it credit to Moda's stewardship."

Ian whispered to Sister Guang, and then talked normally: "Since I have detailed information, I plan to go to Lonely Flame Peak to investigate."

"I still suggest waiting for the arrival of the two executors. Since Baron Ryan is an elite alchemist, it proves that he is extremely dangerous."

Yingguang frowned. As a representative of the Huaiguang Church, she took over the alchemy manuscripts from Ian, and she had a little more admiration for Ian in her heart.

Not all alchemists can easily give up such precious knowledge, but Ian did not hesitate to give these materials that ordinary alchemists couldn't put down to himself for safekeeping, obviously believing in the reliability of the way of Huaiguang.

If it is recorded by Anfa, it will at least add more than 100 positive comments.

Ian didn't know how the other party evaluated him in his heart, anyway, he had already copied them all with the silver chip.

Manuscripts, so perishable, were of no value to the Baron except as proof of his crimes.

As for the executors of the temple, in a more popular way, they are actually paladins, who specialize in dealing with evil sacrificial incidents like the Viscount Laian that may endanger the surrounding towns, as well as various natural disasters that are too difficult.

It’s just that it’s not easy to become an executor. In addition to meeting the hard power standards, you must also have sufficient qualifications. Every executor has experienced many battles, experienced many trials and arduous training, and is a war machine in the true sense. .

Yingguang wanted to wait until the paladins arrived, which was naturally the right choice. No matter how powerful Baron Lean was, he had no room to maneuver in front of the two Huaiguang paladins.

But he has to go.

Whether it is as a prophet, to prevent his identity from being exposed by Baron Ryan, especially to those behind the scenes.

Or as a person, to prevent a worse tragedy from happening.

He had to deal with the opponent in the first place.

"It's just going to explore the way ahead of time."

So, facing Sister Yingguang's suggestion, the boy just smiled calmly and said, "I'll come back when I find the way."

"By the way." As if thinking of something, Ian paused, and then whispered to the other party: "I also found this thing from the baron's alchemy laboratory... If I am accidentally discovered by the other party, I will probably flee into the mountains. There is no way to give this evidence to the executor or Nauman City."

"If anyone asks, say you found it."

"Huaiguang won't lie, but he won't disclose any helpers who don't want to reveal their identities." In the assurance of Sister Yingguang, the boy handed something to the other party.

Seeing the other party frowning, but still nodding, he turned his head and set off.

Ian's figure passed through the window and disappeared into the night and rainstorm.

There was no hesitation.

……

Guyan Peak, the third barrier lake, is a behemoth formed due to large storms, catastrophic rainfall and mudslides.

The huge mass of earth and rock that cuts off the valley and feeds rain from the surrounding mountains into it forces the Degan River to divert while maintaining an eerie stability of its own—a crack in the rock at its base keeps water flowing into it. It is diverted away, but there are still rivers flowing in around it, injecting new water into it.

The torrential rain continued.

In the noisy rain, there are rosy rays of light flickering.

In a gentle valley next to the barrier lake, several camel trailers stayed on one side, and the camels that pulled them to this place had already passed out, lying obliquely in a coma.

In front of these carriages is the source of Xiaguang.

Those were four huge cultivation bins filled with spiritual plant extracts.

The refined nourishing solution of Xiahuicao is worth a lot of money, and the rough extract is also an excellent carrier of spiritual energy. Filling up these four training chambers is definitely not just a one-time job that can be done by self-stealing, but at least a few years. Secret planning, hidden production, the result of accumulating bit by bit.

In the mixed light of purple red and golden orange, the looming bodies of the three children can be vaguely seen. The three training chambers are arranged in a triangle, and in the most central "empty chamber", a ghostly blue spirit can be vaguely seen. The body heaves in the psionic extract.

In addition, there is a slender broken arm with strong muscles in this training room, and the blue spirit body is based on this as the core activity.

Because of the psychic extract, the spirit body can also control the severed arm to slightly affect reality, and the solution inside the cultivation chamber is agitated by it to become extremely turbid.

But under the soft comfort of a nobleman with black hair and blue eyes, the spirit body gradually calmed down.

He was missing an arm, and the owner of the broken arm was obviously him.

At this moment, Baron Ryan's complexion turned pale. He raised his head and looked at the dark rain clouds rolling in the sky. His expression looked a little indifferent and weak, which was very different from when he received Yingguang and Ian at noon.

"The spiritual energy field is stable..."

Whispering to himself, he lowered his head and pressed his face against the crystal wall of the central training chamber, sensing the internal fluctuations.

【dad……】

A vague voice came out: [Dad...]

"The volatility of the carrier has also stabilized."

Raising his head, Baron Ryan nodded, ignoring, or in other words, deliberately ignoring because he couldn't face it, and then looked around at the three training chambers around him.

In other words, train the children in the barn.

"How are you, kids?"

He asked wearily: "Do you feel unwell, short of breath? I can increase the oxygen level a little bit."

The first to respond was a boy with brown hair.

【Feeling good, Dad】

Yila opened his eyes, his red right eye was still burning with vitality, and something was slowly regenerating in the left eye that was forcibly gouged out.

His eyes are slowly growing under the influence of the Xiahuicao extract and some regenerative medicine.

Light purple light flows from his normal eyes and the still-healed eye sockets, making the child smile: [I can clearly sense the thinking of 'brother']

[The thoughts and impressions I have planted in Lai'an over the years, as well as the "identity" of the entire Lai'an, have assisted sister Linda's activation of psionic energy, and now he is completely condensed with his soul]

【It’s just that it’s still too fragile, my brother doesn’t remember anything except Dad, you and Uncle Moda】

【But I can give him memory】
