Above The Sky

The sun shines on the golden wilderness, and the river in the distance is like a silver line, reflecting the scorching brilliance of the sky.

The area where Ian is located is located in a small basin in the southern part of the Golden Field. This basin is relatively rich in water flow. There are occasional arbor forests on both sides of the road and around the river, and the scenery is quite unique and beautiful.

Watching Theo and Lubeck approaching him, Ian felt a little strange to be honest.

He was rarely pleasantly surprised. After all, he is a prophet. If he is really shocked, it is shock and shock. Unexpected good things are always rare.

Patting the camel beast's head and making it turn around gently, Ian said, "How can you two have the time to catch up with me? Is there anything else to do?"

"Yes and no!"

Heo's riding skills are surprisingly good, but Ian has serious doubts that he can talk to horses. The horses of Terra Continent are essentially a kind of sub-dragon, and this guy has blood to suppress horses.

The cheerful Dragonborn Mountain citizen said, "We have something to do to go to the Western Plains. Originally, it was different from yours, but Anfa asked me to bring you a message."

After a pause, Heo frowned slightly, and his expression became solemn, as if imitating Anfa's expression at the time: "He said, 'I understand. Thank you very much for your announcement, I will try to catch up with you in three days, if not If you miss it, the Purple Maple Knight will leave it to me to deal with'."

"That's roughly what he meant. What he said was written in a crepe, and there is a long thank you speech to you. I'm too lazy to repeat it. In short, it means thank you."

Ian nodded slightly, he didn't intend to ask the other party what was going to the Western Plains, the boy turned his head to look at Lubeck.

The two looked at each other, a little embarrassed.

"Uncle Lubeck... I don't remember that you, uh, joined the Huaiguang Church, which was almost a conversion. Did you become a priest?"

Ian asked with some doubts: "That was still big news in Port Harrison, I remember correctly? How did you suddenly and..."

He glanced at Shio, who also had red hair and green eyes, and immediately understood: "The mission of your Mountain Ministry?"

"I should ask this question..."

Lubeck, who had lost weight again, watched Ian's familiar communication with Sio. He was the one who was most shocked, but he also didn't plan to ask.

As a former mercenary chief, he knew very well what to know and what not to know.

"Actually, it's mainly to deal with Flying Flame Land."

But before Lübeck could make up his mind, Heo, who was on the side, directly revealed their purpose: "Recently, the people from the Flying Flame Land have transferred a lot of people to the interior of the Baisen Mountains, and they seem to be planning to do something big. , anger the beastmasters under my mother."

Shiou spoke freely, causing Ian and Lübeck to look at each other again, both of them were silent, and he continued: "It is said that they want to destroy the ecology inside the Baisen Mountains, forcing the beastmasters to raid the human towns in the South Ridge and the West... They are from the western plains into the Bysen Mountains."

"Lord Mother, He has been busy recently and has no time to take care of these trivial matters, so he sent me and a few other members of the Dragon Cult to find out the specific location of this group of Flying Flames Special Forces camp. He will pass by next time. When the time comes, it will be extinguished, and it will save trouble."

"Huh."

Ian uttered a surprised onomatopoeia: "Flying is so bold? Did they fail in their intelligence work, or did they have a way to deal with your mother?"

Dare to attack a real dragon territory of the fourth energy level? There seems to be no such news in the future on the way of the swarm...

"It should be intelligence work."

Heo thought for a while, then nodded and said, "As far as I know, most people think that the King of the Mountain is actually a giant golden-winged thunderbird."

"Except for a few tribes that serve their mothers, other mountain people don't know what's going on deep in the mountains."

"Ha ha."

Ian immediately understood, he smiled and shook his head: "It really is."

Good to die. It is estimated that this batch of Flaming Special Forces was destroyed too quickly, so there was no big repercussions in Harrison Harbor on the way to the worm nest.

Ian looked at Lubeck, and he understood it now. Why did this acquaintance suddenly get involved with the Dragon Cult?

After all, he is not an official Huaiguang cultivator, just a member of the mountain people, of course he will defend his hometown.

"I wish you a smooth journey, see you next time."

As a native of Nanling, he is naturally happy to see the attack on Flying Flame Land.

Ian thought for a while, and gave Heo a few special alchemy bombs and potions: "If someone notices your investigation and pursues you, drink this bottle of anti-virus potion and internal breathing potion, and use these poisonous mists to diffuse the bombs and break them. ."

"This kind of ointment can block the transmission of breath. I usually use it to lurk and catch monsters. Even the sense of smell of the big wood wolf can't smell it. It can effectively avoid various detection methods."

"And here is a high-performance alchemical explosive, a glorious bomb used to perish together. Uncle Lubeck, do you want one too?"

The boy held up the bomb with a smile on his face, and sold it enthusiastically: "If you don't like the spherical shape, I have a bullet-shaped one here."

"No, I'll let it go."

Lübeck shook his head like a rattle. He looked at Shio's excited face holding a new toy, and his heart suddenly sounded like a warning sign: "I'm not like adults, I can put my soul on my body... You let the adults. Be careful when you blow yourself up, I'd better stay farther away!"

Even so, Lubeck was forced to accept it.

It's not that Ian insisted on giving it, but Heo wanted to play with Lübeck's one too.

After accepting Ian's gift, Theo was also very happy to give Ian a black dragon scale amulet.

"It can resist a lot of negative mental states - such as psionic power and the mental influence of worrying stones, and the first energy level can be immune."

With that face quite similar to Anfa, he showed a confident expression that Anfa would never show: "Wait for a while and listen to our big news in the imperial capital!"

"Then I'll wait and see." Ian also congratulated them on their success from the bottom of his heart.

Leaving such energetic words, Theo and Lubeck turned to the western plains.

And Ian watched them leave, disappearing behind a hill.

Then, he turned his eyes to the psionic jewelry made of black dragon scales in his hands.

Speaking of which, this seems to be the first psionic accessory that you have ever gotten, apart from the 'Silent Sound Ring' given by Master Gesai?

It's a pity that the Silent Sound Ring was too overloaded in the South China Sea Great Labyrinth, and it has been damaged.

【Blessing of the Abnormal Dragon】

[First energy level, accessories, elite, inedible]

[The wounded real dragon has been bred for many years, and the only child born still contains the latent poison of ancient extraterrestrial things. The blood of the abnormal dragon causes the descendants of the dragon to shrink their limbs and degenerate their wings, and even the blade tail that should have whipped the earth and thunder It also turns into rigid joints, just moving a little will cause endless pain, only the overdeveloped brain is still meditating in the dark]

[The accessories processed with the scales of the deformed dragon have the function of protecting the mind. As long as the mental interference received is not greater than the pain that the deformed dragon places in the scales, the interference will be absorbed]

【When His pain is greater than your pain, you no longer suffer】

[Contained source quality: 188.7483 base units]

Ian raised his head sharply, looking in astonishment in the direction where Theo and the others were leaving.

"Deformed dragon..."

He muttered to himself, and suddenly understood why Heo walked in the world in a human form, and why he was so eager to communicate with other people almost innocently, imitating their appearance and posture.

Because... Shio's body is not what he imagined, it is the successor of the true dragon, a normal descendant placed in the lair for education for safety...

It is the disabled person who is difficult to appear in the sun because of body distortion.

Putting his soul on the human body is probably the only way he can perceive the world without pain.

Yes, why would the King of the Mountain lock his descendants in the lair for the sake of 'safety' until they reach the third energy level?

In other words, the reason why a real dragon like the King of the Mountain joined the Dragon Worship Cult is really just to break through the fifth energy level? In his own blood, I am afraid there is a related inheritance.

"I see... No wonder Heo is always so happy."

Shaking his head slightly, Ian's confusion in the past is completely clear.

If a person is in great pain just by walking, how can he be unhappy when he can walk freely on the earth?

With this information in mind, Ian moved on.

The appearance of Heo and Lübeck actually also represented one thing, that is, the fact that he realized that the forces he had left had gradually caught up with him.

Whether it is Anfa who will arrive later, or Magneto Light and Purple Maple Knight, this is the case.

Turning his head, Ian's eyes flashed with a silver-blue halo.

He nodded slightly: "Sure enough."

"Just behind."
