  Chapter 620 A brand new Kaizi is here! (5800, first update)

An alchemist genius from Nanling, a guest of the Ellen family, and one of the best alchemists of the younger generation, Ian of Port Harrison was lucky enough to break through to the second energy level due to an accident, even in the imperial capital. Can be regarded as big news.

  After all, second energy is common in the twenties, and second energy in the sixteen year old is not.

Even if Ian almost collapsed because of this, if it weren't for the superb skills of Master Goser and the Ellen family's spare no effort to treat him, he would have to be a useless person if he didn't die... But being able to reach the second energy level at this age means that he is indeed has this potential.

   Potential enough to be admired by the nobles.

   "Where did the Ellen family find such a genius?"

   "Didn't you pay attention to the news of the Imperial Capital recently? He has been famous for a long time. He is a talent discovered by Master Gesai in Nanling. It is not surprising to say that he is a descendant of the Ciehalorvo family..."

   "Oh! Those labyrinth maniacs, a family who offended the Black King and were exiled... Indeed, this is not surprising."

   "I don't know whether it was bad luck or good luck. This young man was affected by the attack of that old **** King Tianhong, so he had to take a potion to break through to save his life. The result was really good, his life was saved, and the breakthrough also broke through."

   "Isn't this a historical record?"

"Soon, almost. The historical record is kept by the Colin family. The 14-year-old chosen one, the second level. He almost pushed the inheritance of the Colin family to the fifth level, and it was only a generation. It's just not enough..."

   "It's also amazing..."

   Similar discussions appeared in the aristocratic circle concerned with the new generation and alchemists. They have long known Ian's name and are quite optimistic about this young future master.

Many of them have already invested in Ian, such as providing some experimental materials for Ian's laboratory with various reasons and excuses. Researching extremely powerful potions or pondering about ether armaments?

But this time, Ian broke through to the second energy level, which really made some people feel that it was a big loss-they originally made long-term investments based on Ian's age. Second level?

   Do you want to be so fast!

  Some nobles felt that they might not be able to get along with this relationship, so they still maintained the previous efforts after sending condolences to Ian, while some nobles thought that it was not too late, so they increased investment.

  The great knight who visited this time is the representative.

   "Ian! You're finally awake!"

  When Isengard saw the awakened Ian, he immediately stepped forward in surprise, wanting to give his best friend a hug—but he quickly realized that Ian was still wounded, so he hesitated to stop on the spot.

"No need, my injury is in the source material structure, and my body is not so weak." Ian laughed, but took the initiative to step forward and give the other party a hug: "I feel recovered very well now, in a few days The research can then proceed normally.”

   "Also, this is..." He turned his head and looked at the blue-haired knight who was watching the two with a smile on his face.

   "It's fine if you think it's okay." Isengarde still had some lingering fears. Who would have thought that King Tianhong would dare to violate the Holy Mountain Convention and directly attack in public?

Feiyandi has been arguing all the time, saying that King Tianhong did not attack, but out of humanitarian considerations, in order to completely wipe out the core of the disaster in the Avak Territory that is continuously causing chaos and death. Not only did the empire not thank you , On the contrary, they beat them back, and they belonged to the fact that their kindness was not rewarded.

   But taking advantage of lip service is not really cheap. This time Feiyan fell into a clear lowland of public opinion.

   "As for this one." Turning his head, Isengard introduced to Ian: "This is the western theater of the empire, the deputy commander of the Fifth Legion, the great knight Il Chargaff, and the baron of the Cibo Land."

"I'm taking the liberty to disturb your rest." The blue-haired noble smiled gently, and extended his hand to Ian very politely: "Before the Avak collar incident, we have always wanted to find an opportunity to contact you to discuss something. However, I never expected to encounter so many accidents.”

   "It's not too late now."

  The white-haired boy shook hands with the other party. He noticed that the blue-haired knight was quite strong, perhaps even stronger than the Viscount Avak who was armed with the dead river, that is, he would not be resurrected. He was definitely no ordinary baron.

   But it’s also true. To be able to find the person or force introduced by Isengard, the background behind it and your own strength must be unusual, and the conversation with the other party in the reception room later confirmed this.

  Il is the representative of the western theater of the empire. He came here this time with the good intentions of several imperial military aristocrats.

  They represent the largest military-industrial group 'Flint' in the western part of the empire other than Grand Duke Thorin.

There are more than 100 professional workshops and factories affiliated to Flint, and there are countless scattered small laboratories. There are more than 4,000 professional alchemists under his command. There is also a complete talent training system. It is a genuine large-scale military industry. The complex can also rank among the top three within the empire.

"incredible!"

  Ian took a deep breath in his heart. No wonder he found Isengard to help introduce him. The relationship is an arms dealer group.

Just like what Master Gosse said, the imperial military was keenly aware of the value of Ian's ultimate potion. At that time, they planned to discuss cooperation and investment with Ian. Ian could get a generous amount of funds from the imperial military. , but he also wanted to study the extremely effective templates of several potions designated by the military.

   But this perception is only due to instinctive keenness. When Tres's team used Ian's highly effective magical weapon potion, they rushed all the way into the Azure City like chopping melons and vegetables, and almost completely disarmed Viscount Avak's knights without any injuries. After the annihilation, the Flint Group, who knew the news, immediately confirmed that the value of the technology Ian mastered was much greater than they had imagined before.

Much.

  Think about it carefully, how lethal should an agent spy who can carry various enhanced states for more than 12 hours or even 24 hours, and perform various long-term infiltration and sabotage tasks?

  Many potions are impractical because their duration is too short.

  For example, the optical camouflage potion can achieve visual invisibility, even stronger than invisibility, but the duration is only half an hour.

Yes. For critical missions that require infiltration, half an hour is enough if good steel is used wisely... But if it can last for more than ten hours, wouldn't the mission be easier and simpler? It can even be said that it is like entering no one's land.

   What if it is twenty-four hours?

   What if there are several rows of buffs hanging on this invisible agent?

  Although even Ian cannot guarantee this result, the mere possibility has made the Flint Group, which has recently noticed the superiority of special warfare and espionage warfare, willing to donate a large amount of investment to Ian's research.

   "The first batch of research funds for cooperative development is 15,000 talers. There are no conditions for this, Mr. Ian, it is just our optimism about the future of extreme potions."

Baron Ill smiled at Ian and burst out a number that made him very friendly: "Besides, we want to ask a question... Whether the source material structure of the highly effective magical weapon potion can be compared with Armored alchemy furnace core connection?"

  After hearing this number, the white-haired boy Dang Shi looked at Baron Il differently, thinking that he was very polite, kind and friendly, and he was a very good person.

   Fifteen thousand talers... He was in the imperial capital for the last month, and including the expenses supported by Platinum Workshop and others, the total was only two thousand talers. In fact, this is already a waste of money. Even for an alchemist supported by a workshop, a few hundred talers a month is enough to do many experiments, and not everyone is engaged in high-end industries.

  Besides, Ian smelled the smell of Kaizi from Baron Il's mouth, which was 15,000 taler.

Baron Il, who was regarded as the son of Kai, didn't realize that the cooperative development was essentially buying patent production rights from Ian. For the sake of the Ellen family and Master Gosser, his offer was actually quite reasonable: "...our alchemy According to the analysis of technicians, this can be achieved in theory, but there are still several technical difficulties, and we would like to know your thinking as a developer."

"sure."

For Thaler's sake, Ian pretended to think about it and gave a positive answer: "The important principle of the ultimate medicine is to expand the source of the medicine's energy. The human body, natural source quality and even the alchemy furnace core are naturally feasible."

   "But the latter is a dead thing after all. It's not like people can fine-tune themselves. Therefore, if you want to make a magic potion that can communicate with armor, you need a special design."

   "And, if successful, the duration of the potion may be very long... even forty-eight hours is not impossible."

   "In that case, it's really a great blessing." Baron Ill's eyes lit up when he got an affirmative answer.

Enhancing the armor with potions sounds a bit weird—humans need potions as a temporary means just because they can’t just add parts to themselves. If they really want the effect of magical weapons, they can directly build an enhanced weapon. Not on the line?

  The reason is this, but cost and design difficulty are also a problem. For example, if you want a magical weapon circuit that can strengthen the weapon when needed, you have to add an additional module to the armor, and this module cannot conflict with other circuits, and it must occupy a key position, and its effect But not worth it.

  For example, is it more expensive to manufacture a batch of inscription-etched warheads as shield-piercing weapons, or to manufacture a batch of magical bullet potion coatings, which are usually stored in the armor to maintain the effect, and it is convenient to soak them when needed?

   This kind of consumables does not need to be stable for a long time. Even if only five out of ten bullets take effect, it is still profitable.

  For another example, if you want the aerospace armor to have the ability to ignore inertial movement, you need to carry out relevant design from the root. In the end, you can only create a high-speed model for reconnaissance, which does not have the expected combat effectiveness.

  But if there is the blessing of the "Extremely Effective Wind Blessing Potion", the combat model's space armor can also have the mobility of the high-speed model for a long period of time!

   As for the duration, it may not be as long as other potions...

  Anyway, armored combat can last for more than four hours, which is considered a super long-term battle. Not to mention, the alchemy furnace core cruise does not last that long.

The reason why no one has thought about this technology before is mainly because the duration of the potion is too short, the effect of half an hour or more than ten minutes may even fly out of one's own war zone, let alone the long-term attack on the enemy's rear. a strategic task.

  The only ones that can be used for armor are basically smear-type covering agents. The amount that can be used for humans and the amount used for armor are not the same thing. After calculating the cost and effect, there are not many applicable agents.

   But in general, it is quite potential.

  Ian showed that this idea is feasible, which proves that the Empire has another superior technology in armoring. The Flint Group just sniffed out the potential of the super potion in this area, so it looked for various contacts and entrusted Essengard to help introduce it.

   And Isengard is also very clear that his friends need this kind of supporter.

"but."

  At this moment, Ian revealed his true purpose: "During the experiment, I need a piece of armor for related disassembly analysis."

   "The latest model is not required, as long as the alchemy furnace and skeleton are complete."

   "Understood." Baron Ill didn't think it was a problem: "How many units do you want?"

  Ian's eyes widened, and he stared at each other in shock.

  —How many sets? Do you count the armor directly in plural? !

But Baron Ill doesn't think it's strange at all... It's not the latest armor in active service. For a military-industrial group like them, the old-fashioned armor is sold to other small foreign countries, which is waiting to be scrapped or used as an armor. The target is done.

   Not to mention, compared with the value of Ian's experiment, even the latest armor in active service is fine, but the air and space armor may be a bit expensive. Isn't the armament of low-level troops like naval warfare and land warfare casually made?

  According to what Baron Il said, if necessary, he can even find a few pilots to cooperate with Ian in the experiment, and he can test as long as he wants.

  —Is this speaking human language? !

   Startled, Ian turned his head and looked at Isengard who was drinking tea. He found that the other person had a calm face, and even nodded with a smile after noticing his eyes.

   Obviously, Isengard is not sensitive to this aspect.

"it is good!"

  Since this is the case, Ian is not polite to the empire. He nodded: "I want three, two for land and one for sea. The fourth generation is fine, and the fifth generation is the best."

   "It will be delivered to the backyard of your laboratory tomorrow." Baron Il assured with a smile, without any hesitation. Obviously, such a trivial matter can be decided on the spot for him.

Next, Ian chatted with the Flint Group representative about some other issues. Finally, after Isengard euphemistically said that "Ian is not in good health and should not waste his energy for a long time", Baron Ill left happily up.

   Watching the back of Baron Il leaving, Ian slowly calmed down with a smile on his face, and his brows were slightly frowned: "Ethan, who is behind the Flint Group?"

   "Aunt Alegria, as well as the Earl of Chifeng, the Marquis of Boluo and other military nobles. The Marquis of Barton is also one of them. She heard about your name and deeds recently, and she came to chat with me for a while."

Isengard reported a name that was not surprising to Ian, and the white-haired boy nodded clearly: "I just said, why are you so generous? It turns out that there is a relationship between the eldest princess and the Marquis of Barton... Then I really don't need it." You're welcome."

   "You're welcome! They have money."

  Isengard immediately said that his aunt and Huoshi Group were rich and powerful, and they should take advantage of it, so don't be soft.

   "How are you doing?"

  This is what Isengard is more concerned about. Ian raised his hand, turned his wrist, and said with a smile, "It's pretty good, at least I can do alchemy experiments."

"That's good…"

  Actually, if it wasn't for his aunt's request, Isengard wouldn't want to bring Baron Ill over to hinder Ian's recovery.

   That is to say, Master Gesai has been ensuring that Ian's body has recovered well, and talking about this kind of topic can make him more energetic, so Ethan tried it with half-belief.

   Unexpectedly, it really is like this!

  When Ian talked about the alchemy experiment and armor, he became more energetic. Although he could still see a little weakness, his spirit had recovered 90%.

  Since Ian has awakened, there is no need to stay with Master Goser. After the two greeted Master Goser, they took a car and returned to Isengard's residence in Midtown from the lower city.

The cabin was quite silent. Ian was thinking about the design of the armor he needed next. He had materials, tools, and silver chips to ensure the processing accuracy. But rubbing the parts empty-handed from scratch is too much work.

  In this case, it may be a good idea to modify the raw materials with military armor parts, which can save more time.

   And Isengard was also thinking.

  The blond boy is not stupid, he is very smart. Isengard is keenly aware that there must be a secret between his teacher and Ian that he does not know, and this secret has existed since the beginning of the South China Sea Labyrinth.

  Even, Ian's injuries may not be that serious, just to cover up his real advancement speed... After all, he has fought side by side. Of course, Isengard knows that Ian's combat power has been quite outrageous since he was in the South China Sea Labyrinth.

  He even guessed that the reason why Ian took the risk to become the second energy level was to prepare for returning to the territory of Nanling.

  The lord of the second energy level and the lord knight of the first energy level are two different concepts.

  So, Isengard is thinking about what else he can do to help Ian.

   "Don't think so much."

  Ian, who had made up his mind about the next chapter, raised his head. When he saw Isengarde's face, he knew what the other party was worried about.

Ian smiled and patted his friend on the shoulder: "Aren't you helping me enough? From the alchemy laboratory to the follow-up investment, and even the funding of this batch of imperial military, basically it depends on your help. Yes. You have half the credit for all my achievements."

   "It was me, but I didn't help you much."

   Sincerely, Ian remembered the echo-related research conducted by the Institute of the Senses in the Avak laboratory, so he opened the ring of silence and told Isengard about it.

   "Grandfather... Has His Majesty's research reached this point?"

It's about his own life, and even the survival of his soul. Isengard also attaches great importance to this aspect, and he frowned: "But it seems that His Majesty's real purpose may not be just to borrow my body to be reborn—he must still be born again. There are other related plans, I am just an important experimental subject."

   "But the problem is, no one in the entire empire knows what His Majesty is thinking."

   "There is still too little information."

  Ian shook his head slightly. He also couldn't figure out the real purpose of the Defender Axel. Although His Majesty the Emperor doesn't seem to appear often now, his influence still covers the entire empire, and even covers major events.

  Even a crazy genius like Grand Duke Sorin was tricked by him unknowingly: "Where is your house?"

"The situation is very bad." Isengard shook his head slightly, and broke the big news: "Father hasn't contacted me for a long time, and the struggle between my brothers and sisters has gradually escalated... I really don't want to go back to Ellenland, but in the end One day I have to go back."

   "It's my real home after all." The blond boy said softly.

"yes."

  Ian nodded slightly. He understood Isengarde's complicated feelings, and also understood that the reason why Isengarde wanted to help him repeatedly was because he had lost many "family members", so he didn't want to lose his friend.

  So, he said seriously: "Then when there is a chance, I will accompany you back to Ellenland."

   "And, judging by your father's reaction, he should also have some information about the Landkeeper's plan, which is what we need."

  "Sometimes, you have to speak clearly so that you can solve the problem."

  Isengard was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Yes. Thank you, Ian."

"you are welcome."

  Ian turned his head sideways and looked at the twilight outside the window. It was already sunset and dusk, and the dark golden light on the other side of the sky turned into a line at the horizon, igniting the tops of the clouds and distant mountains.

  The view made him relax: "No matter what, Terra is always beautiful...even if it's just looking at the sunset and clouds."

   "Yes." Isengard also looked out the window, and his anxious expression gradually relaxed.

  The two watched the sunset in the distance in silence until the alchemy cart drove into the central city and returned to Isengard's residence.

  But Ian didn't expect that there would be a goblin waiting for him here.

   To be precise, a group of goblins were waiting for him.

   Recommend a book! "I'm Invincible, I Came to the Novice System": The author's attempt to write a book.

   Xian Xia is easy and invincible! Stable daily update 6000+

   Jiang Ming travels through the world of martial arts, with hard work and a bit of talent, he establishes the Demon Cult, dominates the Jianghu, and is invincible in the world.

   Afterwards, he got the Immortal Cultivation Technique and retreated to practice immortality for 30 years. When he left the customs, he loaded the novice system.

   Jiang Ming looked at the first system task with a confused face.

   System: "Please host to defeat Liu Tianguang." (Not a top player)

   Jiang Ming: "This is that onion? System, is there any mistake? I am a novice cultivating immortals. How do you load me with the martial arts novice system?"

   "Your version is behind, it's too serious."
