  Chapter 533 The Big Trouble of the Patrolling Knights (23)

  As Pan Sha said, Ian himself doesn't really want to stir up this muddy water.

   It's not the insignificant part of revealing the identity of the Dragon Worship Cult. The main reason is that he can only show the strength of the first-level goblin in front of others, which is too restrictive.

   But it would be too dangerous to act alone if you don't follow the empire.

  What exactly happened on the western border, the young man didn't know anything about it, and he didn't even know what to prepare for.

  Although Xiou is indeed a good person, a good man or a good dragon, but Ian risked his life and the possibility of exposure to save him... Even Xiou himself, I am afraid it would be outrageous.

   "But I can't do nothing, I will be in a bad mood."

  Ian thought this way: "At least he gave me a piece of jewelry, so I have to help."

   "The information is sufficient. For Elder Man Ya and the others, it is no different from me personally estimating."

  When others treat him well, he will definitely reciprocate, unless the reciprocation itself will put him in danger.

   This is Ian's creed in life.

   Patrolling the Knights, going down to the city, stationed in the fort area.

  This place is in full swing, many teams are gathering, all kinds of transport vehicles and even speeding cars are taking off and landing here, and the noisy communication sounds are endless, obviously there is a big movement.

   And Ian also saw acquaintances here - Tres also assembled his team here. Just after the lecture was over, the knight also saw the boy.

   "Ian? I haven't seen you recently."

  The tall knight was a little surprised, he smiled and waved to Ian: "Why, you have also been notified?"

"No."

  Ian looked at the opponent's fully armed appearance. He had everything from armor, weapons, alchemy firecrackers, and emergency medicine hanging on his waist. Obviously, he was about to go on a mission immediately.

  He shook his head and said, "It's because of this that I came here to check on the situation."

"do not you know?"

Tres was also a little surprised, but he quickly realized: "It seems that the group is unwilling to affect your research. The deputy head of the group has personally instructed not to disturb you if it is not important, so that you can do it with peace of mind." experiment."

   "Is this important?"

  Ian asked: "At first, I wanted to continue to do experiments, but it turned out that there was something wrong with the association, my papers were not reviewed, and there was something big about the Knights—I felt a little isolated."

   "Isolation? It's protection. It's not a particularly important thing after all."

   Tres touched the hilt of his waist, and he gestured to the southwest: "Generally speaking, the Institute of the Intellect has made a big mess. You know the conflict between Earl Phoenix and the Institute of the Intellect a few days ago?"

certainly. thought Ian. He was the one who messed this up from the very beginning.

   Is it possible that this incident has a chain reaction? Is he really that butterfly's wing?

   "Recently, under the auspices of Earl Phoenix, many people have discovered that in addition to the Great Library of the Imperial Capital, there are also many private libraries and related classic storage places where similar thefts have occurred."

   "Some were done by the Institute of the Intellectuals, and some were done by unknown forces in the name of the Institute of the Intellectuals, which caused their ministers to be devastated."

Tres didn't notice Ian's subtle expression. He looked in the direction of the imperial capital with a gloating look on his face: "All stolen books have a characteristic, that is, they have a special 'spiritual energy' boarding...and the information that can be traced Said that the final gathering place of these books is the Avak region in the territory of Grand Duke Sorin."

"But what a coincidence? Just two weeks ago, the Avak region of the Grand Duke Sorin completely lost contact with the outside world. Several cities and dozens of townships in that area, with nearly a million people, were completely silent. The refugees also had no voice—the Huaiguang Church said that it was not a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster, so they couldn't predict it."

   "Guess what?" Tres had a reticent expression.

  Ian narrowed his eyes, he pondered for a moment, and then said: "Flying flames did it, right?"

"Yes. You are really smart!" Tres laughed, and then sighed: "After checking for a long time, we found that there is a super-giant unregistered laboratory in the Academy of Gnosis, and there are many unreasonable things in it. The illegal experiment of the imperial regulations, what caused the silence in the Avak area was the result of one of their experiments."

"Now it is basically certain that the entire Avak area has become a purgatory on earth. Many scout teams have gone and never returned. Those who came back are also crazy, shouting corpses all over the ground, and the city has been covered by the shadow of death. Covering... there is no doubt that this is some kind of psionic damage."

"But here comes the problem. The Institute of the Intellect doesn't know why there is a problem, and it is also at a loss. But they believe that all this is a conspiracy between Grand Duke Sorin and Flameland. I signed an agreement secretly with Fei Yandi long ago, wanting to betray!"

   "So..." Ian looked stunned: "This is your mission? Find out the purpose of Grand Duke Thorin and stop the conspiracy of Flaming Land?"

   This is indeed the job of the Patrol Knights.

   "Yes." Tres turned his head and looked at his team. He shrugged: "After becoming a team leader, it is a big task. We have to find out the abnormal situation in the Avak area."

"Also, speaking of it, it has something to do with our original mission—didn't we stop Flameland's hijacking on the train? The target of Flameland's spies, the 'Earthline Source Crystal' itself is a powerful natural psychic power Aggregates, the ancients often used this precious treasure to create some sustainable spiritual creations... and this kind of earth vein crystallization can also communicate with natural spiritual energy."

   "The Knights speculate that what the Institute of the Intellectuals said may be correct. Grand Duke Thorin has treasoned and is working with Flameland to create a huge psychic ceremony, which is not good for the empire!"

   Speaking of this, Tres's expression also became serious.

Although dissatisfied with many things, this knight wants to protect his country from the bottom of his heart: "Although we don't know what ceremony they are going to perform, we have to stop it no matter what. To protect this country, it is our patrol The honor of the Overseer Knights!"

   But at this point, Tres changed the subject: "Not to mention, the mission is dangerous, but it is also a good opportunity to get credit..."

   "After all, we are different from you. I have no culture, but I can't get credit for doing experiments in the imperial capital."

   Tres's words in the second half were a bit sour, but he didn't mind showing this kind of envy, and Ian didn't care about the other party's reasonable jealousy.

   "Thank you for telling me this."

With that said, Ian thanked him earnestly. He took out two potions from his pocket and handed them to Tres, who was a little surprised: "This is a potion I made recently... one is an enhanced version of the magical weapon potion, and the other is a focused potion. Potions have special effects against psionics and curses."

   "Don't worry, this magical weapon potion is different from the ones on the market, and it will definitely surprise you."

   "Then let me say thank you first."

Tres took Ian's potion carefully. He thought about it, and thanked Ian with great solemnity: "What I told you is not a secret, and you will be answered wherever you ask. But I am willing to admit Your favor, Ian."

"I didn't doubt your strength or mock you just now. I know that an alchemist like you usually works much harder than a knight like me. It just looks easy. After all, you need to use your brain. But you care What is this for?"

"how to say…"

  I don't know when it started, a water-colored halo flashed in Ian's eyes, reflecting the mist that was gradually fading from black red to blood red in front of him.

  After the potion was delivered, the signs of death on the knight in front of him began to change dramatically, and now it was only a fatal danger rather than a death crisis.

  So, the white-haired boy paused for a while, and then said, "I was wondering if I should give you a few more bottles of medicine."

   "In that case, at least for this mission, you can save your life."

   Tres: "?"
