  Chapter 389 The real plan (23)

  A calm and upright knight.

  This is Yingguang's evaluation of Ian.

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

  The anger in his heart has never been extinguished, and he has pure and blazing anger, but his thoughts will not be affected by the anger.

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

   Without Ian's assistance, Yingguang believed 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 by the time she finishes her investigation, the baron's plan may have been completed.

   "Find a clue?" the nun asked.

"Um."

Hearing the collaborator's inquiry, Ian took his eyes away from the information he found in the alchemy room, and nodded solemnly: "Baron Ryan wants to collaborate 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 possessed Body' and 'psychic 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.

  Besides the scope of science, there are also many strange small branches, and even broad roads, and spiritual alchemy is one of them.

  Psionic alchemy is more complicated. Simply put, 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.

  Combined with the inscription skills, you can create the expensive "spiritual accessories" 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 power.

   As for which faction it is...

   echo. This one answer.

   Evidence stacked up step by step, and Ian was sure that this incident, not to mention being directly related to Axel, definitely involved high-level empire officials.

and…

  He already knew Baron Ryan's real plan.

  It’s not just artificial humans...that insane, yet unusually 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—next to this stack of documents is the topographic map of Lone Flame Peak, he must be in that area around."

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

   "It is the canyon next to the third barrier lake of 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 Moda a credit for being in charge."

  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 recommend 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 love so much to himself for safekeeping, obviously believing in the reliability of the way of Huaiguang.

  If it was recorded by Anfa, it would at least add more than 100 points of positive comments.

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

  Manuscripts, which are so perishable, are of no value to the baron except as evidence of his evil.

  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 surrounding towns, as well as various difficult natural disasters.

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 had 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 worse tragedies from happening.

  He must be the first to deal with the opponent.

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

  So, facing Sister Yingguang's suggestion, the boy just smiled calmly: "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 a way to give this evidence to the executor or Nauman City."

   "If anyone asks, say you found it."

   "Huaiguang will not lie, but he will not disclose any assistant who is unwilling to reveal his identity." In the voice of Sister Yingguang's assurance, 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.

   Without the slightest 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 draws rainfall from the surrounding mountains into it forced the Degan River to divert while maintaining an eerie stability of its own—a crack in the rock formation at its base channeled water continuously. Walk, but there are still rivers flowing in around it, injecting new water into it.

  The torrential rain continues.

  In the noisy rain, there is a rosy 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.

  The front of these carriages is the source of Xiaguang.

   Those are four huge cultivation chambers 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 ghostly blue spirit body is based on this core activity.

  Because of the psionic 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 turbid.

  But under the soft comfort of a black-haired blue-eyed nobleman, the spirit body gradually calmed down.

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

  At this moment, Baron Ryan's face 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.

   "Psionic energy field is stable..."

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

【dad…】

  A vague voice came out: 【Dad...】

   "The fluctuation 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.

   Or in other words, train the children in the barn.

   "How are you doing, kids."

   He asked wearily: "Not feeling well, not breathing well? I can increase the oxygen level a little bit."

   The boy with brown hair was the first to respond.

  【Feels good, Dad】

  Ira 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 action of the Xiahui grass extract and a part of the regenerative medicine.

  Light purple light flowed 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 that I have implanted in Lai’an over the years, as well as the ‘recognition’ of the entire Lai’an leader, have assisted sister Linda’s activation of psionic energy, and now he has completely condensed his soul]

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

  【But I can give him memory】
