Chapter 589: Ian's Comfort (2/3)
Chapter 589 Ian-style comfort (23)
"Goals are all accomplished."
After arming Lübeck and preparing the team, Hui Jian found Ian: "Next we have to prepare to withdraw—the Church of Huaiguang will not be involved in the conflicts and disputes among the kingdoms, even if it is the empire and Sorin. The same goes for the Grand Duke's 'civil strife'."
【Ian, I suggest you evacuate】
On the surface, it was just an ordinary announcement, but in the spiritual communication, Huijian gave quite serious suggestions: [The Lord of the Dead has those fourth energy levels to solve. No matter what experiment Grand Duke Sorin wants to do, Avak The background of the laboratory cannot exceed the expectations of the empire]
【If he can hide until the plan is successful, there may still be a possibility of resistance, just like when the Great Maze was secretly developed in the Junling Fort and obtained the "Apocalypse Armed Forces" of the civilization of the previous era, and then he succeeded in becoming independent】
【If Grand Duke Sorin really got the possibility of leading to the fifth energy level, or some kind of ability of the fifth energy level, from Inaiga’s inheritance, it will have to wait for the possibility to become a reality】
—It’s not worth risking your life just for a possibility.
Hui Jian obviously thought that Ian wanted to obtain the inheritance of Inaiga II, so he took the risk to do so.
And Ian…
To be honest, he doesn't know either.
"Xio was rescued, so were the goblins, Lübeck even became a clergyman. For humans, Viscount Avak took away their souls... Anyway, it's not something I can care about now."
Ian thought so, he looked around the entire thorny plain, staring at the 'not dangerous' choice gates in the distance.
If you want to leave, now is indeed the best time.
But the problem is that the things he wants to know the most...the truth about the dead king, the real purpose of Grand Duke Sorin, and the legacy of Inaiga II, none of them are close to him now.
Wealth is sought in danger, and so is knowledge.
But he couldn't force the Huaiguang Rescue Team to accompany him on the adventure.
So, after thinking about it, Ian decided to wait until later.
Anyway, they will have to walk together for a while—after all, according to the Institute of the Intellect, the Dead King is firmly blocked at the exit of the subspace maze.
Although he is now leading a team to crusade against the last researcher force in the laboratory, his lair must be heavily guarded.
Actually not necessarily...Ian can't even see the danger now.
In short, after helping them get through there, consider whether to leave or stay.
So, after agreeing to Huijian's plan to leave, Ian took the lead again and led the Huaiguang rescue team towards the exit, which is the lair of the dead king.
But have to say...it's been a pretty long road.
Even Ian spent several hours from the entrance to the central area of the Thorn Plain... The road to the dead king's lair is almost as long.
Ian doesn’t need to rest, he has plenty of energy and physical strength to fight, but the Huaiguang Rescue Team is different—they fought all the way here in a serious way, and after all, they are just ordinary people with strong will and tenacity.
They need a break.
So, En took them another way—a safer, but also longer, way with plenty of time to rest.
Subspace labyrinth, black soil pastoral, decayed land.
The phantoms in this little garden are very weak, mostly plants and human phantoms, not a single monster. Ian believes that this is probably a small garden transformed into a subspace of the potion cultivation garden built in the laboratory. The black corrosive soil will gradually melt people's shoes and flesh, and the rotting flesh mud forms flesh and blood quagmires here.
This is probably the reason why there are no Warcraft here.
Of course, the members of the Huaiguang Rescue Team are not so easily eroded off their shoes. Rather, this place is already a rare resting point for the subspace maze.
The rescue team set up a camp here, and some of them fought more and were more tired. For example, the swordsmen headed by Redemption and followed Ian to charge the whole way even fell asleep after eating some dry food. Enter deep sleep to recuperate the spirit.
Anyway, if they really need to fight, they can get up immediately, seize the time to sleep for a while, and with a little more energy, they will have an extra chance to leave alive in the final breakout battle.
The rescue team rested alternately, and Ian didn't want to expose his specialness, so he decided to sleep for a while during the second batch. Anyway, with the silver chip and the warning from the vision horizon, he could foresee that there would be no problems with this break.
【Ian, tell me, will mom scold me this time】
While on alert, Xiou's dragon soul made a pitiful sound—until now, he didn't understand what was going on. After being deeply grateful to the Huaiguang Rescue Team and Ian, he became a little nervous Get up: [I volunteered to help my mother solve the troubles of Flaming Land, but they caught me... Now, I have become my mother's trouble...]
When he said this, the fear and pitiful feeling in Xiou's voice was like a puppy that was about to be abandoned.
—Essentially, Siou is very inferior.
Ian listened to the voice of his real dragon friend, and he thought silently: "Because I have been taken care of by my mother for many years, I feel that I am a drag on my mother... This body is so bad that he can't even move freely. It even became the weakness of Mother King of the Mountain."
"Xio must have been very scared all the time, right? Afraid that his mother would abandon the weak Him... Maybe the instinct of the dragon clan will do this kind of thing, abandoning unqualified offspring and optimizing the blood of the offspring."
That's why Xiou hopes to be useful, to help his mother, and to do something for the Dragon Cult as much as possible.
but…
According to the description of the silver chip, Ian knows that Xiou is the child that the King of the Mountain tried his best to protect.
It was impossible for him to be born alive at all, and he was destined to be a stillborn child. It was the King of the Mountain who fought hard with his destiny to save his child and raise Xiou safely.
Until now.
But... Maybe it's the pride of the dragon, or simply never thought about it - the king of the mountain didn't show his deep love, so that Xiou had a feeling for his own existence self-abasement.
"Eighty percent of the world's problems may be the education of the original family."
Ian thought to himself: "It's really difficult, should I talk to Xiou? I feel that we should wait until the future King of the Mountain is present. It won't work if I say it unilaterally."
Making up his mind, Ian comforted Xiou who was flustered: "Don't worry, Xiou, your mother will definitely be proud of you—you want to help your mother out of your own will, if it's not an intelligence issue, Let Fei Yandi lay an ambush in advance, and you must have succeeded."
"Besides, your existence has completely exposed the central laboratory of Avak, which has attracted the empire, Feiyan, and Grand Duke Sorin to fight against each other. The Dragon Cult just needs this opportunity for the future development of the Canaan Moor Ancient Dragon Labyrinth. Find an excuse to cooperate with the Empire, your mother will definitely be overjoyed at this excuse to cooperate with the Empire."
"And, haven't I already rescued you?"
Ian's comfort was orderly. According to his thinking, Xiou would definitely turn his worries into joy at this moment.
But without thinking about it, Xiou's mood became even more depressed: [Don't be happy for my mother, I already knew that I want to do a lot of things for my mother, but whether it succeeds or fails, it doesn't even take my head off. will take a shot]
【He won’t even beat me and scold me, it makes me feel so uncomfortable】
Ian frowned, and he said strangely: "Slap on the head? Hit you?"
"Xio, what are you talking about, your mother is a real dragon—look at your head, if the old man slaps him with a single slap, wouldn't the reverse-growing scales and thorns on your head be all over your head?" Bloody? Not to mention hitting you, He definitely doesn't want you to die!"
Ian said firmly: "Listen to me, next time you will use your human body to chat with your mother, at that time, he may be willing to hug you."
【Really? 】
Xiou was a little moved, he had never done this before—the King of the Mountain did have a humanoid prosthetic body, but it was only used to hold meetings with Dragon Worshipers and discuss cooperation with some powerful forces. Xiou had never been in the At that time, I used my human body to talk to my mother.
"At least you have to try."
Ian smiled, and he began to understand why Anfa and Xiou were pen pals—this little dragon’s character is indeed quite cute. For a person like Anfa who obviously has a lot of secrets and has many things in his heart, there is such a friend It will really relieve my heart a lot.
"Let's rest first."
It’s almost time for Ian to rest, and Ian is going to pretend to go to sleep, but he also urges Xiou to sleep: “You are not in a good condition now, don’t waste too much energy, lest I rescue a A broken dragon with a damaged soul will make everyone unhappy."
【Yeah, I’m asleep then】
Xio went to sleep obediently, and Ian also came to the rest camp beside him. He lay on the sleeping blanket and closed his eyes.
He thought it was just a doze.
But for some reason, Ian fell into a real sleep in the subspace maze.
and even…
Resonates with a soul.
Resonates with many souls.
