  Chapter 381 Village girl and dragon girl (33)

  【As for the left arm...is he acting so realistic? I remember that the bloodline of Iwaki Hakuro has a strong regenerative ability, but it’s not to the point where you can cut off your hands casually...]

  The viscount is still struggling with the point of losing his hand—he obviously can't figure out why Baron Ryan wants to cut off his hand for a car of two years.

  It is true that the fire dragon burning the warehouse is really profitable, but if a nobleman is required to pay such a high price, it is obviously not worth it.

  At least he himself would definitely not do this. Wouldn't it be good to find a condemned prisoner and say that he is the ghost who colluded with Flameland?

"and many more."

  And Ian heard a crucial piece of information from the Viscount's words.

  It is also the information he really wants to know in this communication.

   Swallowed, the young man took a deep breath, and then asked in a deep voice, "Viscount, you mean...the baroness is dead? And...his child?"

  【Of course, this is big news in the aristocratic circle, but as far as I can remember, it was mainly because it was a natural disaster attack. The imperial capital sent us and the Lean leader a sum of aid. Isn’t that how those Bison giant cattle came? I still remember that you liked to drink milk when you were young...]

  The viscount teased Ian. Although it was Elder Pude who applied for it at the beginning, shouldn’t he do it after the real distribution of resources?

  But soon, he was keenly aware of something wrong: [Wait, could it be... What can your spirit see? 】

  The viscount suddenly reacted, and then raised his voice to warn: [Listen, Ian, don't get involved! 】

  【Now that you have bought the Xiahui grass, leave quickly...Damn it, is it possible that he hasn’t come out of that grief, and even played the magic of the mountain people to try to recall his wife’s soul? ! 】

   No, not ma'am.

  At this moment, Ian's heart sank to the bottom of the sea like a rock in water.

  —The baroness...and the child died in the storm six years ago?

  Then what the **** was the fourth light blue child figure he saw in the baron's castle?

   And what the **** was that butler who told himself that the young master was only in poor health and could only play in the castle? !

  The ferocious sharp-clawed tiger that cut off the access to Laian, the abnormality in Jinye Town, the missing children in neighboring villages and towns...

  Plus the skull of the prophet, three strange children with psychic powers, the strange broken arm of the baron...

   And, that so-called 'echo'...

  Ian's wisdom is enough for him to understand the key to all this.

  Reverberation, echo, mirror surface—both are the law of eternal life.

   Naturally, it can also be the method of ‘resurrection’!

   As for the cost of all this, the disaster it may cause...

  Evening Skull, as long as it is used irregularly, or deliberately used irregularly, it will cause the user to be gradually assimilated by the prophet, or the target that he has foreseen.

  Because the information you know is insignificant, as long as your spirit is a little unsteady, you will be overwhelmed by the torrent of predicted information and lose yourself.

  So, what if the psyker who uses the Momentary Skull predicts a certain insect nest by accident?

   Or the flower of Karin who predicted that it might still be in the seal?

   even said...recalling those fallen strongmen in the past...

  Yes, the prediction of the Momentary Skull is random, but it does have a tendency. If it is definitely not the target that you want to predict, then randomize a few times, and keep random, and there will always be a day when you can succeed.

   "It's okay to resurrect that prophet, anyway, the carrier is like that, and it is basically impossible to beat me."

Ian frowned, and whispered in his heart: "But what if it is some inexplicable apocalypse-level disaster? For example, this prophet who foresaw a future superpower can use the first energy level to beat the second The kind of energy level?"

   "Oh, I can do it too, that's fine."

   These things are useless to guess, useless to think, and useless to predict.

   Only by actually facing it can we know the result.

   "I see, I won't get involved."

   Letting out a breath, Ian said calmly: "This matter is too troublesome."

  He smiled and said to the Viscount, "Don't worry, my lord, I'm leaving Leonland right now."

【As long as you know】

  Viscount Grant said solemnly: [Whatever nobles do, there are noble courts and patrolling knights to punish them. If they are a bit more evil, there are also the Huaiguang Church and the Order of the Dead to punish them. Let's take care of ourselves]

  【You did a good job this time, Ian. If you encounter something wrong, you can ask me if necessary. If it doesn’t work, you can tell Bishop Baiwu. He has a deep understanding of these sorcerers and evil methods]

  The Viscount gave a few more instructions to encourage Ian, and then ended the communication.

   And Ian stood in front of the communication equipment, lost in thought.

   "How to manage this matter?"

  He was talking to himself, then shook his head slightly, and changed the phrase: "Where should I start?"

   "Although I have advanced to the second energy level, it is best not to expose this matter. Although the fourteen-year-old second energy level is not inexplicable, there will be many unnecessary troubles if you are too talented."

  In any case, Ian will take care of this 'idle' matter.

  Don't talk about the safety of several children and surrounding villages and towns.

   Baron Ryan may be related to 'prophet power' and 'echo', so he has to figure out the context behind it.

  The former may be just a matter of curiosity, while the latter is a matter of great importance.

  The people of Nanlingbai were basically exiled here because of the echo incident, and Isengard is very likely to be Axel's future echo carrier.

  As long as this technology is involved, there must be a huge conspiracy behind it.

  Although there is no 'direct' connection, even if you don't use the prophet's premonition and just use your head to think, the mentally handicapped can still come up with a result that cannot be let go.

  He doesn't want to be drawn into the vortex ignorantly, even if he has to jump into it, he must know what it looks like.

   "Hidden identity... go explore."

   "I hope things are not as bad as I thought."

   Made up his mind, thinking this way, Ian's figure has disappeared.

  He came to the street where the rain was pouring.

  Because of the curfew, the entire city of Laian was very quiet, only a few algae oil lamps were still flickering.

  On the dark road, two water-colored halos flashed past, like blue lightning.

  Boom.

  Accompanied by the icy tidal wind, the thunder swept across the land, whistling past the houses and intersections, the pale light suddenly illuminated the entire town, and then quickly disappeared, leaving everything in darkness.

   Only the sea of ​​grass and flowers outside the city is still shining brilliantly.

  A figure arrived here, and then he was surprised to find that there was another person here.

  Lightning pierced the dark night. Sister Yingguang of Huaiguang Church held a shovel in her hand and looked at the young knight wearing a helmet in amazement.

At this time, the dragon girl is wearing a rather simple rural farm uniform. At first glance, she looks like a village girl. She probably wants to disguise herself, but as long as her tail and horns are still there, she is unlikely to succeed, let alone reflect her Sister Guang's appearance and temperament, even if she is a village girl, she is also very beautiful, and she can kill a cow with one punch.

  However, her posture of holding the shovel is quite standard and skilled, obviously she often does farm work.

  The two looked at each other and fell into an awkward silence.

  Sister Reflecting Light's dragon horn is black mixed with a little crimson, which should be the characteristics of some kind of rock dragon or fire dragon. Her eyes are slightly narrowed, and she is looking at the knight who has met once before.

   Soon, she showed a clear look.

   "Here, Shovel."

  She raised her hand, took out another folding shovel from her back, and handed it to Ian.

The voice of the girl-like Dragon Man is clear and bright, and the coda sounds faintly like the sound of pebbles colliding in the river. This strange accent proves that his hometown should be in the Fortress of the Ridge or around Ganterigum. There will be such a pronunciation habit.

  Ian took the shovel, and he noticed that besides the package on her back, this lady also brought three shovels as spares, and even had a metal shock stick on her waist to pierce rocks and loose soil. It can be said that she was fully prepared.

"thanks."

   After trying the feel, Ian nodded his thanks.

   So the two began to dig the ground.

The two sublimators dug the ground, and it didn't take long for them to dig more than ten meters deep. The surrounding rainwater gathered and was blocked by Ian's control, while the nun Yingguang was at the bottom of the pit, and said "it is so": "I found it. "

  She jumped up, and returned to the ground from the bottom of the pit in just one jump, holding an adult skeleton in which the flesh and blood had been shaved off, and cut marks could be seen on the bones.

   "There is still underground, this area is the hiding place where Baron Ryan buried his body."

After checking the condition of the bones, Sister Reflecting Light looked at Ian who seemed to be in deep thought, and she said smoothly: "This knight, although I don't know your purpose, but Baron Ryan and the mountain people did use corpses to cultivate spiritual power. related to the evil sacrifice of plants."

   "You can continue to assist me in investigating this matter, or you can leave as soon as possible and go to Nauman City to report to the local governor."

   "I must warn you that this matter is extremely dangerous, and I will not act rashly. Instead, I will report to Nanling Great Church after collecting more information."

   This is a very formulaic phrase, and then the dragon girl stretched out her hand to Ian, showing a capable smile: "Thank you for your assistance. How did you discover Baron Ryan's abnormality?"

   "It's a bit long story."

  Ian understood what the nun meant. He didn't misunderstand, and shook hands with the other party, but returned the shovel to the other party: "I think we can exchange information."
