  Chapter 558 The Battlefield of the Strong (33)

【it's actually really easy】

Mikael's heart light body, the bird of light that looks a bit like Phoenix but is even more shining, turned its head and glanced at Ian: [You also know that Grand Duke Sorin has my grandfather, Ina The Legacy of Gar II Concerning the Psionic Arts]

  【He used to be a student of his grandfather, and he was a chosen one—even though the old grandpa died at the hands of his grandfather, he still respected his grandfather and inherited part of his inheritance】

  【And all the legacy of the grandfather is related, if you want to restore the glory of the golden age, or even go further, the legacy of the grandfather is a must】

He looked up at the dark sky with a little blood in Azure City, and said lightly: [But for most people in this world, for most powerful sublimators-this world does not need a first Two Inaiga, there is no need for such an impatient black tyrant]

  【The current Terra is not perfect, but for them, it is quite good, just slowly transform it, there is no need to be so anxious】

  【They will not let their grandfather's legacy gather. I can't get it, Grand Duke Sorin can't, and all other heirs who are still hiding their identities, can't either]

  【Similarly, I also have selfish intentions. I can't let other people get my grandfather's inheritance, it's as simple as that]

"and."

  Ian narrowed his eyes, this is his habitual expression when he discovered some secrets and hidden lines in other people's words.

  The young man said: "You want me to be a guide. A hidden guide."

   "Your Highness, later on you will appear on the stage in a superficial manner, and confront the strong men from other countries who will appear next—they will compete for the legacy of the late emperor, the technical materials in the laboratory of Grand Duke Sorin."

   "But in the end you will miss, you will not get the inheritance."

   "But I am here. When you want, I will cooperate and receive those inheritances."

   "This is why you want me here."

  【Very dangerous, if you are not careful, you may get involved in the battlefield of the strong—but will you refuse? 】

  Mikael's voice was relaxed, with a smile on his face: [I knew from the very beginning that you would come here, and no heir to the inheritance would give up this opportunity]

[Ian, I have already read your paper on extreme potions, it is very good, you have listened to my advice, and you can produce results so quickly - in just two months, you have completely reversed the direction of your research, you are so smart , it is naturally impossible to refuse the opportunity to get more inheritance]

  Ian didn't speak, and his silence at the moment is the best answer.

  So, the second prince is also quite satisfied: [Don't worry, as long as you cooperate well, there will be no accidents... There will be absolutely no danger]

  【In this regard, we are not superiors and subordinates, not princes and lords... but partners】

  —Ghost letter.

  Ian thought so, he didn't think that the second prince would harm him, the other party's bright green friendly unit.

  However, the matter of 'no accident' is tantamount to impossible.

   Regardless of Mikael’s good plan, what to do at that time must still ‘depend on the situation’.

In fact, Mikael didn't have any idea of ​​success, he just simply made a plan for "if it will succeed" to ensure that he would not be unprepared when he encountered an opportunity-Ian was one of his preparations for success. essential factor.

   This is actually a good habit, and Ian recorded this practice in the 'memorandum'.

  Since it has been reported to Mikael, the real big boss, Tres certainly has no objections.

  He is now in a state of smooth brain, not planning to do any thinking.

   After confirming that there was no danger, Ian took Shuangdie and Hua An to the place where the 'mother' died physically in his memory.

  He found the body of the Phantom Woman Primarch.

  Inside a shop, there were many women with white hair who were obviously young, but died of massive bleeding in the blood vessels in the neck. When she died, she was smiling. Combined with the memory, it was obvious that she died willingly.

   There were several strips of cloth wrapped around the woman's body. Apparently, it was done by her son Miles to prevent his mother from being infected with fungus, and a simple name was written in blood on the strip.

  【Ruixi】

  The situation was urgent. Even Miles couldn’t choose a good enough burial place for his mother, so he could only put it inside a clothing store on the street to avoid being disturbed by other dead beasts.

   "Excuse me, I just want to find out the truth."

  Whispering to himself, Ian stretched out his hand, his eyes lit up with a silver-blue halo, and then pressed it on the woman's head: "I need to know what happened to you..."

  In an instant, the prophetic vision was activated.

  Ian saw many fragmentary memories again.

These memories are about the scene of this woman named Ruixi living in an apartment building, about the scene of a helpful aunt named Lydia helping her, and about how hard she has worked hard to bring up her son. Big, and proudly watching the scene where he becomes a man.

  However, the originally warm apartment building has become a purgatory on earth, and almost all of Aunt Lydia's family, who took care of the mother and son, were killed by the madman's attack.

  Only the little granddaughter Cynthia and her daughter's family who went on a trip survived.

  Ian read these memories, he was still silent and calm.

  He just sighed in his heart, and then selected the most important doubts.

"it's here."

The water-colored halo in his eyes went out, Ian straightened up, he stood in front of Ruixi's corpse, and said to himself: "The 'plague' or 'spiritual disturbance' similar to the 'temporary soul formation' has already appeared. , it was an experiment, so the people in the Grand Duke's Mansion quickly gave out the 'medicine' to cure it."

   "And the situation of this plague...how is it similar to the flash mosquito disease?"

   "There is also a special medicine. In fact, it is a special spirit base liquid. Although it can indeed heal the soul, in essence, it is just a 'prerequisite' for people to better condense the soul!"

"Some people adapt, and some people don't. Those who have adapted can successfully condense a real soul like Ruixi in the current situation where the virtual world and reality overlap. Those who have not adapted, have temporary souls. Time will also be extended."

   "Grand Duke Sorin, actually developed a potion that can assist the 'temporary soul'... If it wasn't for an accident in the laboratory, he might really be able to pile up a group of 'ordinary people' with souls with money!"

  —This is really a big invention.

  Thinking this way, Ian suddenly discovered another doubt.

"and many more."

  He frowned slightly, squatted down, and stared at Ruixi's corpse seriously—he didn't really stare at the eyes of the corpse, but looked into the inside of Ruixi's corpse, some things inside the brain.

   Ruixi has been dead for a long time, and her brain has been rotted long ago... It's a pity, but the fact is that it has become a mess, and I can't see anything clearly.

  Because of this, Ian didn’t observe too seriously before, but after realizing the existence of the ‘temporary soul’, he took a closer look.

  As a result, doubts were discovered.

  Ian was silent for a while, he hesitated for a while, but in the end, he still made up his mind.

"very sorry."

  He took a deep breath, and the boy said seriously to the corpse in front of him, "But I really need to do this in order to do something."

  After speaking, Ian stretched out his hand, and the flowing water sank into the ears of the corpse, breaking through the decayed body structure, and directly entering the inside of the pulped brain.

   Then, grab something in it.

   Then pull out.

Snapped. Ian straightened Ruixi's body, and then stared at the foreign object he found in her brain.

   That's... a bug.

   A bug that Ian is very familiar with, but with some differences.

   "Brain Eater..."

  Ian whispered to himself, his tone so cold that Shuangdie and Huaan beside him trembled... But in fact, Ian knew very well that this was not a real brain-eating worm.

   This is 'attached to the brain'.

  Although it is primitive and degraded, it is far inferior to the civilization of the pre-epoch, but there is no "Sequoia attached to the brain" after returning to the ancestors and turning violent!
