Chapter 99: touch the stars
Chapter 99 Hand Touching the Stars
The status of the White People in Port Harrison is entirely rooted in Elder Purdue alone. It is not only the personal friendship with Viscount Grant, but also the personal strength of Elder Purdue—Hilliard believes that the other White People are not ignorant, and they must be very clear. Elder Pu De's authority, they can only obey, it is impossible to refute.
But for the rights of the "future elders of Baizhimin", there must be fools and greedy guys who will feel unwilling and try to attack Ian, the "default elder heir".
"Of course, I can clearly see that the chief guard of Reid looks down on me."
Picking up an oyster and swallowing the meat with a slurp, Ian was not interested in this kind of thing: "He thinks what is a psyker, anyway, there is no inheritance, no resources, no matter what, it is the first energy level— And I am too young, how can I shoulder the great responsibility, he, the sublimation who fought hard for the people of Bai, fought **** battles for the family and the aborigines, is the real leader!"
"That alchemist, Mining, didn't care about this, but she was dissatisfied that Elder Pude didn't teach her everything. She is Elder Pude's niece, and she secretly satirized her uncle who would rather put the bottom box Kungfu is passed on to 'outsiders' and not to her."
"Haha." Hearing this, Hilliard also laughed, and he felt a little nostalgic for this kind of contradiction that was too lifelike: "But the knowledge of ether armament that Elder Purdue taught you comes from Viscount Grant, there is no The Viscount agrees that he would never pass it on privately anyway."
"What's more." He stretched out his hand and rubbed Ian's rain-soaked hair. The source essence evaporated and dried the water: "The inscription is either not or not. She must not be as smart as you."
"It's just boring anyway."
Ian shook his head, and let the old knight straighten his growing white hair with a blank expression: "That captain is very friendly to me, because my psychic ability can tell which catches can be sold more The money, and maybe my father’s relationship, he was the first to directly light up the green favorability sign to me.”
"And his nephew, that is, Uncle Sai Nan, has a good relationship with me, so he is very supportive of me."
The source quality of a sublimator is the power of life, which can only be stored in the body. Hair, which has a simple structure and can be repeatedly superimposed, is a good material for storing source quality.
Ian can easily hunt those wild beasts that contain source quality, which allows him to obtain a large amount of source quality at a young age. No matter how hard he exercises, it is difficult to consume all of it.
As for Elder Purdue’s vaccination behavior, Ian can understand, but he is not interested.
He fully understands the importance of interpersonal relationships, and also understands the necessity of various tactics, but he is too lazy to use his brain in this regard, because it is actually a waste.
When he was still on the earth, he was the most standard nerd character. He usually studied ~www.readwn.com~ stargazing, researched and made manual models.
Singing K to dinner and class reunion is a waste of time. He would rather stay at home and spend eight hours building a model of the Truth Defender class battleship than go out to participate in social networking.
It changed a bit after work, but it was only because Ian realized that socializing with people and building a good relationship can save more time by virtue of the relationship when it is more critical—and occasionally meet like-minded people, that is double happy.
Because of this, even though he was not interested, Ian did not refuse Elder Pude's invitation to meet with the elders of Bai Zhimin one by one.
"How did you solve it in the end?"
Hilliard was very interested, and he asked Ian about the final result: "Even if Elder Purdue didn't regard you as the heir, he would not allow other people to show 'dissatisfaction' with his choice... even if you don't want to be The future leader of the White People, he will not accept the fact that someone dares to disobey him now."
After all, whether Ian takes over in the future is one thing, but the elder himself can live another twenty years.
He is disobedient now, but he will be fine when he is really old!
"Elder Pude showed 'my' Wavesinger inheritance to them."
Ian said simply: "Elder Purdue appointed me to decide who can practice the inheritance of the Wavesinger in the future. After all, I got the reward from Viscount Grant, which is very reasonable."
"Captain Red has given in. His inheritance is a return to his ancestors, because the energy level is too low to pass on to his children—he has three children."
"smart people."
Hilliard nodded slightly: "No one will have any doubts now."
"But..." the old knight said slowly, "Do you really want to be the elder of the White People?"
"Yeah." Putting down the fishbone in his hand, Ian said lazily, looking at the coastline with surging waves on the other side: "To be honest, teacher, this kind of thing is really boring... But if I am the elder of Bai Zhimin and Leader, many things must be convenient."
The boy stared at the surging waves in the distance, and the shadows of fishing boats that could be seen faintly in the distant sea. He couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "After all, human beings are social animals, and the more people there are, the more powerful they are."
"If I'm just an ordinary sublimator, at least I can guarantee the safety of myself and Elan."
"If I were the elder of Bai Zhimin, I would have the confidence to improve the structure of the ship and make the ship industry in Harrison Port more advanced. It would no longer be limited to the offshore area, and I could develop fishery and commerce, and explore farther afield."
"If I were the governor of Port Harrison, I could try to improve the structure of the alchemy cannon and the firecracker, quell the wars in Nanling for so many years, and build a prosperous city."
"In this way, the surrounding environment will be safer. There will be no wars and vendettas, and I will have less trouble, and I can study what I want with more peace of mind."
Ian's words were as flat as an explanation, without confidence, and without a declarative tone, but it was as natural as eating and drinking, just because everything was taken for granted to him.
But Hilliard completely believed in it, and didn't feel that there was even the slightest inappropriateness in his student's idea: "Indeed, you can do it."
There was silence for a while, and then Hilliard spoke again.
"Ian."
This time, the old knight's tone was slow and erratic, with a long-standing nostalgia: "Suppose...you are a general of the empire, a governor of a province."
"Even, the Emperor of the Empire."
"What would you do?"
After speaking, he waited.
"Haha, there are many things to do, but it must be faster than me thinking and doing it alone."
Ian didn't think this topic was any strange. He laughed, then raised his head and thought, "I don't understand military affairs, and the general is not easy to talk about, but it's still more powerful than the governor of the semi-directed jurisdiction of Port Harrison." , I may use the excuse of military improvement to study alchemy artillery, alchemy rockets and other things, which can be regarded as laying a good foundation."
"Didn't there be news recently from the businessman that a floating battleship is being built in the capital of knowledge? I think I can try it too. They are all rocket ships, and I can do it too."
"As for the governor of the province, there are too many things that can be done. Let's build a material science research center first. I have to study the inscriptions with great concentration. The deconstruction and re-research of the etheric armed forces have to be planned... There are too many things that can be done. There are so many, I suddenly feel like I have to make a list.”
"As for the emperor..."
Having said this, Ian fell into deep thought, and he frowned and fell silent.
While Hilliard waited patiently,
He doesn't think that his student's contemplation and silence are due to fear of the emperor's dignity. During these few months of living together, he already knows that his student is really a pure person without any fear and natural admiration. He is only faithful to his own heart .
Ian has a power in his heart, that pure curiosity is enough to change the world, it just needs a little help.
He firmly believes in this and is willing to help his students achieve it.
But first, the old knight wants to know, deep inside Ian, the true desire, the ambition...
and dreams.
"I…"
After about a few minutes, Ian, who thought about a lot of things, conceived a lot of ideas, and wanted to say a lot of things, opened his mouth, but found that he didn't know where to start.
His plans, his lists, his timetable, his research projects...all of them mixed together, churning his mind.
Finally, at the end, the boy just sighed, raised his head, and looked at the cloud-covered sky.
Gazing at the dark sky where the rainstorm was falling, Ian said softly: "Sure enough, I still want to."
"I want to touch the light of the stars with my own hands..."
The torrential rain intertwined into a dark silver curtain between the sky and the sea, and the water flowed along the wide leaf eaves of the giant trees by the sea, forming a series of flowing curtains, dripping on the waterproof tarpaulin roof of the camp, making a plopping sound.
Hilliard and Ian stared at the sky in silence, and there seemed to be lightning flashing across the sky in the distance.
Clouds are rolling.
"Let's go."
Hilliard stood up: "It's time to continue training."
"Yeah." Ian cleaned up the food leftovers after eating, and he has regained his strength.
So the master and apprentice continued to exercise until the sun went down.
Until night falls.
There will be an update later today, as an addition to the free period on the last day, I hope everyone supports the release at 0:00 today~
