Chapter 596 The original dead king (33)

On his own, Ian walks faster than when leading a team.

Immovable Fortified City, Fairy and Dead King... Who can add the power of triple inheritance?
At this moment, the power he displayed far exceeded everyone's imagination. The defense and attack of the rock-forged knight, the agility and swiftness of the goblin, and the terrifying lethality of the dead king made all the phantoms and monsters who tried to stop him All gone.

Every time Ian steps forward, a ring-shaped frost nova spreads in all directions. The weak phantoms are directly destroyed, and the stronger ones will also be frozen in place, and then beheaded by him with a sword.

The power of the dead souls is concentrated in the eyes, so that he can directly see the veins of the subspace, as if there is a map of a maze, and he can choose his own action route at will.

With the blessing of the Prophet, Ian simply walked straight towards his goal.

The experimental center of the researchers of Grand Duke Thorin, which is also the place of the final battle that he foretells.

Along the way, there are more and more powerful phantoms, and the phantom army like a tide is rushing towards him one after another, as if they want to consume his strength and hinder his pace - Ian can see that these phantoms seem to have sanity, They stood firmly in front of Ian, like warriors blocking the advance of the devil.

——You cannot be allowed to influence our dead king to carry out divine revenge!
Such belief can be faintly heard from the hearts of these phantoms.

He doesn't care about that.Everyone has their own beliefs and positions. Ian never felt that he could be recognized by everyone, but in any case, he did what he chose.

Ian swung his sword with his right hand, turning the dead ice into a crescent-like arc of light, beheading all the phantoms of these 'warriors', and raising his left hand, made the source matter condense into a shield, blocking countless incoming arrows arrow.

His pace cannot be stopped, like a reef standing in the tide, all the phantoms attacking him are like some kind of inferior hallucinations, and they will even be turned into fly ash after being stared at.

Ian thought that this pace of going against the current would last for quite a long time until he reached his destination.

However, he suddenly heard a hollow voice.

【Let him come over】

This voice contained the same power as that in Ian's body. The original dead king issued an order, so all the phantoms stopped their movements.

They stared at Ian, then backed away.

A way was open to him.

Ian raised his head and looked in the direction of the sound. As the dead king who had held power for the longest time at the beginning, the other party seemed to be able to grasp some of the power of this subspace composed of the wailing of countless victims—at least he It is impossible to shout from the air in the labyrinth of the subspace.

In a sense, this is also a kind of 'Lord of the Labyrinth'?
Perhaps so, he didn't take much notice of the dead king's order for the phantom to stop attacking. Now, even the second-level beasts and phantoms are nothing more than a matter of a sword.

I believe that the other party also saw this, so he let himself pass freely.

And just as he was walking toward the finish line, Ian felt it again.

A strong 'emotion' calls for the power of 'backtracking horizon'.

Another life of a person.

[I am the illegitimate son of a nobleman, and my birth was an accident. I was a disgrace from the beginning, and even needed to be exterminated, but my father was not a villain in the pure sense after all. Concealed my existence, but never acknowledged my identity]

[My mother runs a small jewelry store, and depends on the profit and loss. She was originally from a wealthy family and broke up with my parents because of me. If there is no child support that my father occasionally sends, I might not be able to grow up]

【So I don’t actually hate him.Although these bitch nobles think they won’t have offspring with ordinary people and always don’t use contraception, but at least it’s not a bad thing for me to be born]

[My mother has always believed that I can be successful. She secretly saved a lot of money and hoped that I could become a bachelor, preferably a bachelor in alchemy. If I make money in the future, I might be able to become a sublimator. Come, I can be recognized by my father's family—although it is impossible to become a direct line, it is very possible to become a side branch]

[Many offshoots of big families came from this way... After all, if they can become sublimators, admitting that they are offshoots is what the nobles would like to see]

[That is the easiest and fastest way for me to change the future and my destiny, and I have been working towards this direction all the time]

It was a man's voice that was hoarse but sounded quite gentle.

His voice is very calm, with a kind of tenacity and optimism in his bones, softly telling his life: [I am a genius, really.I'm really smart, especially in bioalchemy, and I can learn it as soon as I learn it. My instructor also recognized me very much, and even recommended me to study at the Saint Roque Alchemy Academy]

[Of course, I found out later that the Holy Roch Alchemy Academy is not the Alchemy Academy of the Grand Duke’s direct lineage, but a joint venture with the Imperial Capital. If you enter that academy, it is impossible to be valued by the Grand Duke... It seems that I have a feeling for his child. threat]

[But I am still grateful that he laid a solid foundation for me]

[In the Alchemy Academy, my grades are excellent, but not top-notch.After all, I did not learn the principles of alchemy since I was a child, and I have enough money to do experiments. My progress is more than a little behind those noble students... But for some reason, there is a mysterious fund to support my studies and experiments]

[The dean told me, don't ask who gave it to me, I just need to be grateful and study with peace of mind——I had already guessed in my heart, but I still suppressed my excitement and concentrated on laying my foundation in the college instead of In order to catch up with the progress of classmates, I did some high-risk and high-expenditure experiments】

[I can't let people down.Whether it's the mother or 'that person']

[In the end, I graduated with the top ten grades in the college, and I was the only civilian top ten]

[On the day of graduation, a mysterious silver-haired man invited me to drink tea]

[The dean is also in the tea room. From his humble expression, I know the identity of the mysterious man... Yes, the silver-blooded Sorin, the night watchman, the ruler of the night sky... Besides the Grand Duke himself, there are also Who could it be? 】

【San Luke Alchemy Academy is indeed not a direct descendant of the Grand Duke, but how could he miss the talents in his own territory? 】

【The Grand Duke said that he is very optimistic about me. He thinks that my talent should not be used to learn potion alchemy that can only make money... He told me that I have the potential to change the world, and I have this ability】

【I was very moved, but also very inferior. I told the Grand Duke that I was just a commoner. I had no knowledge passed down from my family, and I didn’t have any background. I didn’t deserve such praise... I didn’t inherit the blood of my father’s sublimation at all.】

【And the Grand Duke told me that the blood of the sublimated can indeed make their descendants have better physiques than others, but it can't change people's character and the aura in their minds. There are many stupid and mentally retarded nobles.Of course, there are also many ordinary people. After all, the empire has a population of almost 20 billion, how can there be so few idiots? 】

[All in all, there is no significant gap between human intelligence and stupidity in this world. Don't take yourself too seriously because of a little boring blood, and don't take yourself too lightly]

[He told me that all the nobles were the first to occupy high positions because their ancestors were smarter, more resourceful, or had better luck than others—they made such a trick to maintain their rights. Set up a garbage-like system so that your family can last forever]

[The Grand Duke smiled and said to me that he actually has nothing to complain about, after all, he is the Grand Duke who has been replaced by generations, but even if this is the truth, I can’t underestimate myself because of this stupid system]

【He invited me to join his laboratory, where my ingenuity will be maximized】

【Since then, I have sworn that I will only be loyal to the Grand Duke in my whole life】
