Chapter 763 The Pioneer of the Pioneer (8000, big chapter!)

The more he looked, the more frightened Yadbert became.

The sublimation organ structure in Ian's body is completely different from that of ordinary sublimators. Not only are there several additional structures, but the source quality circulation formed between them is also very harmonious, obviously an optimized and specialized version.

The part named 'Extreme Domain' in the notes is the core of this optimization.

With Adalbert's technical strength, he can tell at a glance that this is an enhanced version that is obviously superior to the general sublimation techniques today. Experiment, and everyone's area of ​​optimization is different.

In other words, if you don't practice "meditation" and don't enhance your computing power, then in today's Terra, I am afraid that only a prophet like Ian can try and make mistakes again and again to find his own extreme domain construction point .

But even if you have the idea of ​​meditation, if you are not a genius, it is difficult to open it with your own strength... It requires a deep understanding of your body.

In addition, the ether crystal on the boy's left hand made the dead king researcher feel that his eyes were wrong.

"Ether Heart?! Biological Ether Heart?!"

Half squatting beside Ian, Adalbert exclaimed and stretched out his hand, looking at Ian's cyan crystallized left arm: "It's still shrunk to such a small point——Huaiguang, you have nothing but Gu Long's core. And the ether core?!"

The existence of Gu Long's core really shocked Adalbert, but when he thought of Ian's identity and who his teacher was, the shock in his heart could not help but be transformed into a kind of nostalgia and sigh - that was obviously The first knight left the last legacy to his disciples, and what Ian has done all along has indeed lived up to the expectations of the first knight.

At the very least, the construction of Xiahui Territory is indeed getting better and better. Although Ian himself never publicizes it, the people in the Territory are indeed living a happier life than before.

But the etheric heart is different-the biological etheric heart, in the entire Terra, only a small number of forces control it. Ian's friend, the Eren family where Isengard belongs, is one of them, but their etheric heart needs to be paid' The source of life' is the price, and the duration is not long, and full operation will also consume lifespan.

And the ether crystal in Ian's left hand... runs very gently and smoothly, and there is no need to pay for the high-quality energy that can only be condensed by the third energy level, the source of life!
"Perfect..."

Alberto muttered to himself.

Ian's left arm has completely become aqua-blue active crystals due to the source quality caused by the Moran steel and the ether core, which is very similar to the body material of the crystal dragon. There is no doubt about the blood, this is indeed the most obvious atavistic characteristic of benign Warcraft blood.

The young man's arms are well-proportioned and smooth, his fingertips are slender and pointy, with a dangerous taste almost like a dragon's claw. Its color is translucent, and there are dots of source quality shining inside, flowing a layer of warmth under the illumination of the laboratory lights. The crystal light looks like a work of art.

In addition, there are many complicated inscription circuits on the inside of this arm. These translucent, blue and white patterns are the defensive structure of the Fudo Fortress series. Their existence strengthens this arm to the alchemy cannon. Can't hurt it in the slightest.

A lot of auxiliary lines were drawn on Ian's arm. Later, Adbert will disassemble this arm that is like a work of art - Ian will take out part of his arm bone and lay a few secret lines inside. Put it back after the silver line.

Thanks to the mithril given by Viscount Grant, and part of Ian's own secret collection, he can optimize the output channels of ether crystals.

This is also a preparation for the future "Steel Drive Inheritance" that can integrate the abilities of Fudo Fortress and Fairy, so that he can use one circuit to display two completely different abilities at the same time.

The operation on the arm is not difficult, and Adbert can understand the specific process at a glance.

But the transformation of the heart is more dangerous.

At this moment, the researcher even turned on his own dead king form. His scarlet eyes penetrated Ian's flesh and blood, and followed the surgical auxiliary line on the young man's chest to look at the internal internal blood vessels, neural network, and source material structure.

For the operation, Ian has temporarily interrupted the circulation of body fluids in the whole body. For sublimators, this is nothing. As long as there is the support of source matter, the cells will have energy supply, and there is no need for cells to generate energy through oxidation reactions. He can continue in this state. More than fifteen days, let alone one surgery, ten are more than enough.

The problem is that if you want to take out the heart and move the core of the source matter furnace up... the operation required is too delicate, and every blood vessel and ganglion needs to be connected.

What's more, Ian also plans to lay a layer of 'flash silver skeleton' on the inside of his ribs. This kind of sublimated metal with the best electromagnetic system has a very powerful electromagnetic amplification effect.

Adalbert could see that Ian planned to use his chest and ribs to create a 'magnetic confinement field', and the strength of this magnetic confinement field could be continuously strengthened with the strength of his source quality.

In addition, with the flash silver skeleton, Ian's control over electromagnetic force will also be greatly enhanced. Adbert can already imagine where the other party intends to use the 'Chest Shell of the Clean Dust Dragon'.

By that time, Ian's ability to manipulate the magnetic field may even be stronger than the clean dust dragon itself.

But why did Ian create a magnetic confinement field?What is he going to restrain within himself?
"Is it the crystal of the source of the veins?"

Ordinary researchers must not be able to keep up with Ian's thinking, but the dead king researcher quickly found the answer.

Alberto suddenly said: "The crystals of the source of the veins need to use ultra-high temperature liquid sublimation metal as an intermediary to release energy stably. This requires a certain space, which is why you have to remove your heart!"

"And your fairy blood can just be used to control the three-state conversion, and can heat the metal to liquefy when necessary. But if you want not to cause damage to the internal organs, you need to use a magnetic confinement field to confine the high-temperature plasma that assists in energy release. Stabilize internal pressure..."

"This is a bomb! You replaced your heart with a super plasma bomb that can blow up the entire Xiahui City!"

Thinking of this, the researcher took a deep breath: "The core of the ancient dragon is reserved, the core of the source material is pressurized, the pressure of the source crystal of the earth vein is stable, and the core of the ether in the ether crystal is used as energy supply... The energy supply by you alone may Higher than the entire city of Naumann!"

"It's unbelievable. Your third energy level output has surpassed the limit of all the third energy levels in the past. There is no sublimator in the entire Terra who can have such an exaggerated foundation as you at the second energy level!"

"But it's normal to think about it. The ether crystal is the prototype of the sublimation organ of the fourth energy level, and the ancient dragon's core is simply the fifth energy level... Is this really the precursor of the third energy level? Ian, are you What new things are you researching?"

Adbert has already noticed that something is wrong with Ian. This is not the advanced route of a normal sublimator at all. It is too complicated and too powerful. If the original sublimation system is an old armor, then Ian is using it now. It is the ether armament condensed with the latest technology!

"Yeah." Ian didn't hide it from Adalbert. The Arcane Way is not something he can perfect and sort out by himself: "After I use myself as a test subject to succeed in the experiment, I will sort out these materials For you..."

"Speaking of which, you don't seem to be a normal third energy level." Thinking of this, Ian suddenly became interested: "You are a dead king, and you are also a practitioner of meditation. Maybe you can also try to take this path of arcana." road!"

"I'll talk about this later, Ian, you actually planned to do this kind of extremely difficult operation by yourself!"

Waving his hand, Adbert couldn't help complaining: "You are too confident - you plan to do it yourself at any time, so what do you want us to help you?"

"Yeah, so I was wrong."

Ian simply admitted his arrogance. He reached out to his fellow travelers and smiled, "So help me."

"...Okay." Although Adbert didn't really think about it, he shook hands with Ian in the end. He was a little unhappy and said, "You should trust us more."

"Yeah." Ian said softly, "I'm studying."

Surgery will begin immediately.

With the ingenuity and technology of Ian and Adalbert, removing the heart is indeed a piece of cake, even the more complicated "flash silver skeleton installation" will take some time at most.

As for how it works, Ian's 'auxiliary computing units' are perfectly adequate.

Now that someone is helping, Ian can anesthetize himself so that his body's instinctive reaction will not interfere with Adalbert's operation. In theory, a sublimator can fully control his instinct, but Ian is always cautious and does not leave any failures possible.

After drinking the soul tranquilizing potion prepared by Adalbert in one gulp, a cold feeling went down the mouth and went straight to the lungs, and then spread to the whole body.

Wherever the potion passed, both the body and the soul fell into silence, and began to sleep and repair itself-this is one of the best healing potions, it puts people in a peaceful sleep for recuperation, and it is also one of the few that can fully affect the sublimation. A narcotic agent with a positive effect.

However, under the effect of the silver chip, Ian's thinking is still very clear. He can clearly see that Adalbert has entered the state of the dead king after fixing himself on the operating table, and there is also a faint blue gun in his hand. Spiritual Knife.

This is actually Yadbert's dead king's ability 'Ghost Blade'. It should be a two-handed sword about the height of a person. One swing of the sword is enough to erode a castle to ashes, and the subspace will be cut open. .

But now, it's just a scalpel, and facing Ian's body with eight layers of shields removed, leaving only the basic defense of flesh and blood, it is still a bit difficult to cut. chest.

"Is this the immovable strong city? Just relying on this body, you don't need any abilities, and you can move across the battlefield."

Adbert has never fought against Ian, and he doesn't compete with him on weekdays, because he doesn't really care about combat power at all. Knowledge and research are his foundation. This is the first time he has personally experienced Ian's powerful basic qualities. There is only emotion left: "But even this kind of inheritance can continue to be optimized and strengthened."

Shaking his head, Adbert pushed hard, and then parted Ian's sternum towards the sides, as if opening a door, revealing various flesh and organs in his body.

It has to be said that Ian's body itself is very well-proportioned, almost perfect, both in appearance and body shape, like a work of art.

But compared to Ian's inside, his appearance is just ordinary beauty.

When he saw the distribution of various sublimation organs in Ian's body, Adbert held his breath subconsciously. He had never seen such a reasonable distribution of sublimation organs. Each one was in its most suitable position. The organs all assist and resonate with each other, exerting a greater effect than operating alone.

In the young man's body, although the purple-red blood stagnated, it still maintained a very strong activity, and among the organs, the muscles and visceral membranes had extremely regular lines of inscriptions, shining with an indeterminate luster.

perfect creature.

This is the thought that flashed in Adalbert's mind - if there is a so-called 'perfect individual' in human beings, then Ian is undoubtedly the existence of this template.

Strong, tough, sensitive and beautiful... It's like a miracle engraved by the heavenly father in the world with destiny as his hand.

But he knew deeply that Ian was not born this way.The young man is optimizing his body all the time, constantly adjusting his living habits and diet, and transforming himself to be more perfect through hard practice and even self-surgery like today.

Sublimation... that's what sublimation is all about.

Sublimate everything that was originally weak and clumsy into a new, more powerful form.

"At first, I couldn't imagine how the pioneers who developed the way of sublimation were able to open up this way."

The researcher was silent for a moment, and he sighed with admiration: "But after seeing you, I understand how to be the pioneer of a new path... what kind of person is the pioneer."

In Ian's chest, the purple-red heart was beating slowly, and it seemed to have known its next fate after being calmed down by the soul tranquilizing potion.

Adalbert quickly and finely cut off all the flesh and blood structures connected to the heart, and used his own ghost essence to solidify the state of all wounds, and practiced meditation. He also has extremely huge computing power and finely handles every nerve. and blood vessels, and then took out Ian's heart completely, and placed it in a storage container aside.

But this was just the beginning. Adbert focused on slowly moving up the core of the source quality furnace located under Ian's ribs.

The source core has no entity in essence. It is the "sub-entity power seed" constructed by Ian in his own body with the ancient dragon core and ether crystal as the source. It maintains the sub-permanent sub-entity with the powerful calculation power of his soul. run.

But just like the vortex does exist in the sea, the core of the source matter has no entity, but the flesh and blood of the source matter it controls passes through, and the real ether network formed by the fusion of the silver chip and Ian's nerve is the 'sea water'.The operation process of these 'sea water' is the so-called 'vortex', which is the essence of the source core, a super-phase existence.

And Albert moved these silver ethernets upward steadily, connecting them with all the blood vessels and nerves that were originally connected to the heart, and suturing them quickly and accurately.

Time passed by, and the scarlet halo in Adalbert's eyes flickered a little. Obviously, even Ian was extremely cooperative, but he had to avoid this kind of ultra-high-precision surgery on a sublimator. It is also hard work for him to affect the operation of the source matter in Ian's body.

But after three hours, he still completed all the connection and transfer work.

But that's just the basics.

After resting for a while, after pouring himself a bottle of concentration potion, Adalbert took out the 'Earth Vein Source Crystal' that Ian had prepared from the beginning

Light blue mixed with pure white light illuminates the laboratory, and a pure white ectoplasmic crystal releases a spectrum of blue and pure white, flickering like breathing.

Adalbert placed it in the center of the core of the source matter, which seemed to have been prepared long ago——and when this pure white gemstone was embedded in the center of the young man's chest, it immediately bloomed with streaks of white The psychic veins of his blood vessels and nerves spread towards Ian's chest and whole body.

At the same time, Ian's body and soul began to weaken, but in contrast, the crystals of the source of the earth's veins became brighter and brighter, as if the crystals of the source of the earth's veins were absorbing Ian's source and soul to nourish themselves !
But Yadbert was not surprised. He raised the 'Ghost Blade' in his hand, and the original small knife instantly turned into a small sword.

The eyes of the dead king researcher reflected every change in the psychic energy field of the crystal of the source of the earth's veins, and when this pure white gemstone was breathing and changing, he made a move!

I saw that the tip of the Nether Blade quickly slid across the incomparably complicated inscriptions on the surface of the Earth Vein Source crystal, reversing its operating logic in a small but fundamental way!

All of a sudden, the bright veins of spiritual matter extending from the crystals of the Earth Vein Source dimmed.

But after a few seconds, the warm light lit up, making Ian's body crystal clear from the inside and outside, and the many blood vessels and nerve networks in the body became clearly visible silk lines. Running and flowing slowly.

The crystal of the source of the earth veins is a very strange kind of psychic wonder. It itself is a natural psychic aggregate in nature. Its own "natural form" operation is to draw psychic energy from the surrounding things to strengthen itself.

But this process can be reversed. The earth condenses out the crystals of the source of the earth veins, just like a creature reserves excess spiritual energy in its body, and when needed, the earth will draw out the power in these crystals to carry out Self-healing, regulating ecology.

Yadbert just reversed the operation logic of the leyline source crystal, allowing it to extract energy from the earth, and switch it to the current mode of releasing energy to nourish Ian's body.

Of course, this process is quite dangerous for ordinary people: rashly linking with the crystal of the source of the earth, the individual biological body can easily be washed away by the mighty natural will inside the crystal and become a vegetable.

But Ian's tenacity of will, Adalbert is not worried at all.

In fact, this is indeed the case. Adelbert sensed that even after taking the tranquilizing potion, Ian still has the power to fine-tune the positions of the source crystals and the source core, and expand the interior to accommodate the high-heat molten metal in the future. Chamber.

The Dead Lord researcher let out a long breath. Now the most dangerous moment has passed. The source quality furnace core has replaced the heart, using pure source quality to promote the circulation of body fluids in Ian's body.

But there are still a lot of follow-up operations to be done—for example, using the 'Morian Steel' as the basis to fill and solidify Ian's chest cavity, and the laying of the flash silver skeleton will also take a while.

It will also take a while to cast the mithril circuit that crystallizes the left hand.

But compared to connecting the source quality furnace core and inlaying the source crystals, these are trivial matters. Ian can even do it by himself, but since Yadbert has already made a move, it is better to do it all at once.

For the next six hours, Adalbert was concentrating on laying the skeleton.

And Ian's feeling is also quite strange.

After removing the heart, Ian felt a burst of pure emptiness—it is impossible for human beings to adapt to a body without a heart, just like a disabled person would feel the 'phantom pain' from his lost limbs from time to time. There is also an extreme sense of emptiness in his heart, and this emptiness doesn't even have anything to do with the brain, but comes from the soul.

This kind of emptiness is like the feeling that a person wants to do a very important thing, but suddenly forgets what he wants to do, tossing and turning, thinking desperately but can't remember it.If I have to use a metaphor, it is also very similar to the broken dream, the loss of a mission that has been working hard for more than ten years and fails on the last day, a kind of complete nothingness and emptiness.

At this moment, even with Ian's will, he couldn't help but feel nothingness.

——Why do I have to work so hard?

The boy asked himself.

Although I said in my mouth, 'the heart is useless, just pick it off', but how is this possible?It is an extremely risky path to replace the heart with the core of source matter. This kind of self-reformation will cause the distortion of human thought. There are many similar examples on the earth in the past. Many people who have undergone large-scale self-reformation have suffered from ' Cyberpsychotic', turned into a ruthless anti-human madman.

But Ian made this decision in only ten minutes, and made the relevant deduction and final surgery plan within two hours.

Everything is for the purpose of improving strength... to go to the sky.

But...does it really make sense?
Ian is very clear that the existence of the prisoner star prison located five light years away is an incredible barrier.

The light-year-based prison, its creator, can easily erase the entire Terra star field with just one finger. The existence of this barrier itself is bigger than all the matter in the Terra star field put together. billion times.

If it weren't for the existence of the skyfall spacecraft, its fall might have broken the prison star prison, and today's Terrans have no possibility of escaping from the prison.

But it doesn't talk about whether you can escape from the Prisoner Star Prison through the crack.

What if he escaped from prison?
Outside the prison is the jailer guarding the prison. Such a powerful existence only needs to press a button casually, and the people of Terra have to go back and continue to sit in prison.

Even if there are no jailers... but the universe that allows the existence of Prisoner Star Prison, would it be any better?
Maybe the situation in the outer universe is even worse than in the prison, maybe even the entire outer universe has been destroyed by the terrible cosmic war?
And even if they lead these Terrans out of Hell, they won't be grateful to themselves.They just want a peaceful life, just want to hold the happiness in their own hands, just want that.

They have never seen the stars since they were young, and they don't understand the distance at all, and they don't understand the meaning of exploration.

Even if it succeeds, humans will not be grateful to Ian.

It's so empty, it's all meaningless.

Infiltrated by this feeling of nothingness, Ian couldn't help falling into hesitation and hesitation.

— half a second.

After half a second, he threw the nothingness away.

"I don't care if the people of Terra appreciate me or not."

Sensing the slow beating of the source quality heart, and the abundant and gentle spiritual quality of the earth vein source crystals nourishing his body and soul, Ian slowly opened his eyes: "Whether they hate or are grateful, whether they are happy or desperate, it is all up to me. Nothing to do."

His face was expressionless, and the silver-blue aura flashed in his eyes: "I don't care if they are willing or not, whether they want to leave Heavenly Prison."

"I'm only for myself. For my own dreams. For what I insist on being right."

"That's all."

Time flies.

"The operation was a success!"

For a while, Adalbert's voice seemed to come from extremely far away, and Ian could even hear his friend exhale in relief: "You have not failed your trust, Ian, the core of the source matter, The crystals of the source of the veins, the laying of the flash silver skeleton, and the mithril line on the left arm have all been completed."

"Even if there are still some details that need to be adjusted in the future, you should be able to do it yourself, better than me!"

"Thank you... thank you."

Raising his head with some difficulty, the young man looked at Yadbert. He stared at the tired dead king, showing a sincere smile: "Next time you need surgery, I will preside over it."

This is his most sincere thanks.

"Yeah." Adbert couldn't help laughing, he rarely saw Ian's tired and weak posture, and he really wanted to take a closer look.

But he was also very tired, so after briefly agreeing and giving Ian a few more instructions, Adbert went to the lounge beside him to rest.

——Surgery is much more tiring than fighting!
And Ian sat on the operating table, stroking his chest, and the ribs and chest bonded with the advanced regenerative medicine he developed were very stable, and it only took half a day to restore them to their original shape.

In addition, under his collarbone, in the center of his chest, there is a faint blue light that is flickering, which is the sign that the brilliance of the crystals of the source of the earth veins is shining beyond the flesh and blood.

A strange psionic field covered Ian's whole body. In this psionic field, Ian could use the power of the earth for his own use—this is the third energy level of the "vision" and "self-spiritual field" area'.

Even if he is not yet, but with the help of the crystals of the source of the perfect material, this feature has begun to appear

Closing his eyes, Ian mobilized the log of the silver chip.

Then, a waterfall of information flows through.

[The holder is undergoing the pre-ritual surgery of 'Steel Herald Inheritance'...]

【The holder lost his heart】

[The holder's heart function is replaced by the 'source quality furnace core']

[The holder has obtained the energy module Earthline source crystal]

[Reminder: This creature is extremely special, and it is necessary to activate the "Special and Extraordinary Biological Protection Protocol", record its information and enter the "Ether Flow Information Database" to avoid irreparable information loss]

【…】

"what?"

When Ian saw this, his eyes widened. He didn't expect that his transformation of himself would make the silver chip so excited all of a sudden, throwing out a lot of new information and vocabulary.

The peak individual... the etheric information base... and the follow-up "Special and Extraordinary Creature Protection Agreement", each of which seems to reveal a corner of the grand truth.

With his progress and improvement, and his exploration of unknown areas, the secret behind the silver chip began to gradually unfold to him!

But what happened next shocked him even more.

Because, Ian felt it.

Or rather, the Prophet felt it.

There is a piece of information that originated from the far end of time and space... no, it originated from everything in the world, from the entire space and time of the universe... the information in the ubiquitous 'ether' seems to have been touched by some key node, towards Then he sent a message.

The primordial ether flow that transcends time and space, and the great ether that runs through the infinite parallel worlds are oscillating as a whole.

It was an indescribable, ineffable message, if it had to be described in human language... maybe it would be a greeting.

A gentle hello.

【Brothers and sisters who don't know where】

The grand message greeted softly: [Walking on a new road, the pioneer of pioneering]

【Your pioneers send you greetings】
