Ryan's Sword

Chapter 74 No.70 Rival in Love in Act Four?

The experienced old man Price pretended not to notice the eye contact between the two young people, he patted Lilith's head with a smile, and said at the same time: "Both of you come with me, especially Ian. "

The old man stood up and led the two of them towards the small door on one side of the conference room, and said at the same time: "I heard from Ren that you have confirmed the origin of the temple and helped him defeat two important enemies. What do you do?" Well done!"

The old man's approval made Ian, who came from behind, quickly bow his head respectfully, and responded: "I just happened to read related books, and the victory in the battle is achieved by the joint efforts of the adventure group, especially those who were injured in the battle. Members, juniors don’t dare to take credit.”

While chatting and laughing, a group of three people passed through the small door on the wooden wall of the conference room and entered a rather elegantly decorated small room.Ian did not expect to see rooms decorated with velvet curtains and magic crystal chandeliers in such a hastily built environment like a forest camp.

The light of the magic crystal chandelier illuminated the entire room. Behind the long table with various books in the center of the room sat three scholars in dark robes.Two of them, like Price, were old men with silver hair.When the three of Ian came in, they were flipping through the ancient books piled up in front of them, their brows were as gray as their hair, and they were lost in thought.And the one left was a black-haired young man with a rather mature face——

In Ian's view, there is no difference between the blue scholar's robe and the Hogwarts school uniform. If you add a pair of round-frame glasses and a pointed wooden stick the length of your forearm to the black-haired youth in front of you, then Almost like a grown-up Harry Potter from another world.

"Lilith, long time no see!"

Seeing the three of them enter the room, the black-haired young man immediately stood up, and said to Lilith beside Price with a refined smile.However, the next moment, he saw Ian, who was also young, on the other side of the old man, and his originally enthusiastic smile froze slightly.

On the small map in the upper right corner of Ian's vision, the pale green dot corresponding to the black-haired young man who resembled Harry Potter abruptly turned pale yellow representing "slight hostility".

This made Ian, who was still kindly speculating about the other party, suddenly startled——

This, it has now been upgraded from ridiculing physique to attracting hatred when meeting!

"Myron? Didn't you go to Heishan City for further training? Why did you come here?"

The blond girl glanced at the black-haired youth and frowned subtly.The Black Mountain City she was talking about was located in the middle of Ryan, and it gradually prospered because of a Black Mountain rich in iron ore three hundred miles away from the city.Since there are three ancient magic academies in the city, after the expansion of Black Mountain City, it has become a well-known holy place for studying.

"I..." The black-haired young man named Myron hesitated for a moment, then lowered his head slightly, "I heard that the Louisburg Adventurer's Guild is urgently hiring ancient scholars, so I came here with my mentor." He raised his head suddenly, subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva——

"Who is he?"

Myron's frowning nervousness fell into Lilith's eyes, and her cherry mouth opened slightly, which finally turned into a silent sigh in her heart.

"He's my captain."

"Ok?"

The blond girl's answer made Ian on the other side couldn't help digging his ears——

Is this her answer to her own question, or is it simply a prevarication for this classmate Myron?
"Okay, now is not the time to reminisce."

Price frowned slightly, obviously he did not expect that the scholars invited this time would also have social relations with Lilith.

However, the old man quickly took the initiative of the topic into his own hands.He took Ian to the other side of the long table beside the two old men who were still immersed in their research, and said, "Ian, let me introduce you. These two are ancient scholars from Montenegro. This is Professor Connie. This is Professor Wenger." Hearing Price's voice, the two old men raised their heads and cast their gazes at Ian beside Price.

"Hello, young man," said Professor Wenger, who was seated on the left, a hale and hearty old man. He smiled at Ian so friendly that the wrinkles on his face were squeezed into deep furrows. "It is said that You happen to know about the temple ruins found in that forest, can you tell us more about it?"

"If you can, please tell me in which book you read the relevant information." On the other side, Professor Connie, who was slightly fatter, gave Ian a contemptuous glance, and then buried his head in front of him. Ben spread out the tome, "Fort Lewis has the largest library in the southern part of the empire, which is very convenient for obtaining evidence."

Professor Wenger's kindness and Professor Connie's disapproval made Ian's brow slightly raised - he never remembered that he had offended a scholar of ancient science.

Ian still remembered that Myron, the black-haired young man who obviously admired Lilith, said earlier that he came here with his mentor.

That being the case, this chubby Professor Connie really values ​​his disciples!
"A Brief History of the Twelve Kings of the Granite Period, written by Opkins Obsidian."

Ian bowed his head politely to the kind-faced Professor Wenger, and said: "The life of Borodin, the hammer king, is recorded in that ancient book. As for whether the secret library in Lewisburg has collected that book, It’s unknown next time.”

"Opkins Obsidian?"

Professor Connie frowned deeply. He knew Obsidian, the dwarven royal surname, but it dates back at least ten thousand years ago to the ancient times.At that time, the now prosperous Ryan Empire had not yet been established, and even whether human civilization began to appear at that time remains to be verified.

It is conceivable that, not to mention books, even the knowledge and news related to that era, humans in the current era have only found out a few scratches and half claws.

As for the works written by the ancient dwarves of that period-there may be a few isolated copies in the plateau dwarf empire west of the orc kingdom, the one in Louisburg was built hundreds of years ago by a wizard from the Southland wizard organization. In the secret law library, it is really not necessarily possible to find related books.

"If you have the ability, go to collect evidence?"

Ian glanced at Professor Connie, who was bowing his head in thought, and couldn't help but smile secretly.The dwarf book he was talking about was briefly mentioned in the expansion pack when the dungeon of the "Hammer God's Ruins" was updated. It is very difficult for this fat professor who is a bit cynical to obtain evidence——

Even if there is a rubbing copy of this ancient book in the Secret Art Library, it must be at least Angelica's level of identity to be eligible to consult it.

(At this time, Bloody Rose, who was wearing silk pajamas and sleeping soundly with her arms around a long pillow, uttered a sleepy dream: "Which stinky man is thinking of me...")
"Then where did you read that book?"

The black-haired young man obviously saw the unnaturalness of his mentor. He immediately turned his eyes to Ian, who was about to stick to Lilith, and asked a sharp question.

Ian glanced at Myron on the other side of the long table, and said calmly: "Ian Grant, I was lucky enough to see the magic rubbings of ancient lone books when I was young. If you want to prove this, I can accompany you."

"Grant..." Myron was stunned for a moment. As he was studying ancient studies, he immediately thought of the origin of this famous surname in the history of the Ryan Empire and even today. "The...Grant family in the Far East?"

"Exactly."

After receiving Ian's affirmative answer, Myron couldn't help but clenched his fists, and then sat back on his seat in a daze.

"Little friend, can you tell us the information you know in detail."

Professor Wenger spoke again.Although he was quite surprised by the identity of the young man in front of him, he never looked at people with colored glasses like the colleague next to him from the beginning to the end, so he was naturally able to maintain his original calm at this time.

Originally, the person in charge of the Adventurer's Guild brought this young man here to discuss academic issues related to the temple ruins!

"Okay, Professor Wenger, it's like this..."

On one side of the long table, Ian confessed all the information he knew to Professor Wenger, and on the other side, Myron sat down silently, and Lilith was very surprised when she saw the disappointed look - this was the first time she saw this black-haired man. of young people show such a state before themselves.

The girl looked at the scene where she had already had a good conversation with Professor Wenger on the other side, and there was a sudden enlightenment in her eyes.

No one else said a word until Ian and Professor Wenger finished talking.

The old man Price did not expect such an episode to happen in a simple exchange, but he was not prepared to intervene in the affairs of the young man. He just waved back after Professor Wenger recorded the key information that Ian said. Two young men brought by themselves.

Soon, Ian and Lilith left the secret room and left the temporary guild hall all the way.

The two walked around the camp under the darkness for a long time, and after a while, they seemed to have approached the temporary residence that had just been built on the side of the camp.

The strange thing is that Lilith, who was originally lively, didn't curiously ask hundreds of thousands of reasons for every new discovery as before. On the contrary, the two of them didn't even have a conversation along the way.

"Are you a nobleman?"

Going forward, the two should return to their respective temporary residences. Only then did the blond girl finally speak her first words since leaving the Adventurer's Hall.

"From the perspective of blood relationship, yes."

Ian, who had been silent with Lilith for a long time, raised his hands, crossed his fingers behind his head, and said, "But now, I'm an adventurer." As he spoke, he couldn't help scratching his head, showing a With a suspicious look, he asked, "You don't... hate nobles, do you?"

"..."

"No!" Ian's rhetorical question left the blond girl quite speechless. She shook her head and turned the topic back to Ian's previous answer, "Why do you say that?"

Ian raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "You want to hear my story?"

Lily didn't avoid his gaze at all, and asked instead: "Is it not possible?"

"Of course, but..." Ian looked up at the extraordinarily round bright moon in the sky, "But how do I remember that you still owe me an answer?"

"reply?"

The blond girl was slightly taken aback, and suddenly remembered the previous incident.According to the agreement, she should have informed Ian of her decision last night, but due to the farce last night, both of them ignored it for a while.

"I can go on an adventure with you, and you must also teach me swordsmanship, but that's another matter!" Lilith said her decision without any hesitation, and at the same time held the pair of moonlighted stars Staring at Ian with big eyes, he said, "But now, I want to know about your story, Captain."

"no problem."
