Above The Sky

Hilliard has tasted many delicacies, and Ian's dishes are not top-notch among the many delicacies he has eaten in his life, but only local delicacies.

But regardless of who his original chef was, and how well-stocked the ingredients and seasonings were, the fact that his apprentice made it himself was enough for the old knight to feel his appetite.

"It's a pity I didn't learn this craft back then."

With a sigh, at the dining table, Hilliard looked at the oyster steak in front of him and nodded slightly.

The kneaded and processed Warcraft meat is soft, tender and fragrant, floating in the brown sauce gravy, and the berries that have been simmered at the bottom of the soup are melting, making the juice thicker and more delicious.

And the oysters above the steak were trembling and shaking, and Ian had just the right amount of heat to fully absorb the sauce and fully cooked but not old at all.

The carefully selected thick white mist-grade oysters tasted very good. The old knight picked up a piece and put it into his mouth, chewed it a little and swallowed it. The unique taste and taste of seafood mixed with animal meat oil made him unable to help it. He applauded: "If you can eat this kind of food every day, even the imperial restaurant in the imperial capital will feel unpleasant in the future!"

This is naturally an exaggeration. The imperial restaurant in the imperial capital specializes in entertaining nobles and officials. The quality of the ingredients used and the cooking skills of the royal chef are not comparable to that of an ordinary cooking enthusiast like Ian, not to mention ordinary monsters, even many Yalongs. The dragon meat has also appeared, in addition to being delicious, it has extraordinary effects, almost like a potion.

But in Hilliard's view, with the level of his apprentice, the ingredients that he can obtain in the future are naturally far better than any restaurant, and as a truly powerful sublimator, it is natural to master a higher level of cooking.

He always eats seriously, but Ian doesn't.

The boy just looked at his teacher's face seriously, as if he wanted to scan every detail.

"What? Don't you want to eat?"

Hilliard naturally noticed this. After a few months, he has never been polite to Ian, and he has never followed the rule that the teacher eats first. Usually, the two of them have finished eating, and then he will get some for Ian. Milk, soup porridge, or minced minced meat, then train when it's time to go, go to class when it's time for class, and never procrastinate.

He looked at Ian suspiciously, trying to figure out what his students were looking at.

But after a moment of silence, Ian just whispered a word.

"wrinkle."

The boy said almost solemnly: "Teacher, the wrinkles on your face are getting more and more."

After returning home, Hilliard naturally lifted the Orsenna mimicry and returned to his original appearance.

The old knight from a few months ago, although he was said to be old, was essentially just because he had long gray-brown hair and a calm and dignified aura. In terms of face, he could only be considered middle-aged at best.

But now, wrinkles appeared in the corners of his eyes and forehead, making him look more and more old.

"yes?"

Hilliard was not surprised when he heard Ian's words. He glanced sideways at the soup, and restored his current face from the blurred reflection: "It is indeed a lot more, I didn't deliberately go Repression is just that."

Turning back, the old knight smiled: "Ian, how old do you think I am?"

"Fifty or sixty?"

Ian is also uncertain about Hilliard's age. The other party has obviously experienced a lot, but his mentality is quite young, and it can even be said that he is quite ambitious... Of course, it is also possible that when facing his child, the old man also recalled The old days are high-spirited, but no matter how you think about it, it can't be too old.

"Seventy-four."

Gently speaking, Hilliard picked up a piece of steak and put it into his mouth. He chewed the meat and bones together, his eyes lowered: "The sublime has the power to change the world, but in the final analysis, it has only developed in the last few hundred years. Since the perfected skills are specialized in the development of power, they will not be of much help to the continuation of lifespan.”

"Yes, a powerful sublime can live to be one hundred and twenty years old, and the longest-lived sublime record is one hundred and fifty-five years old, but who has never fought, who has not been injured? Whose inheritance is perfect, everything in the body is perfect. There is no conflict in the sublimation organ, and there is not even the slightest omission?"

"These are all loss of lifespan, because the road under our feet is already rough and difficult."

Saying this, Hilliard turned his head, he looked at Ian, and said seriously: "Son, you must also remember that no matter the bloodline or the true shape, it is by no means perfect, there are gaps, and I need to wait to check the gaps and fill the gaps. The thing - in addition to sublimating our own body, soul, spirit and will, we also need to sublimate the future for those who come after a longer road."

He recited the proverb: "Order will endure only if wisdom lasts for a long time."

"By the way, let's talk about this."

Hilliard seemed to think of something, he smiled and said: "Ian, I can extract the highest grade of pure water, and the fusion of potions can now be carried out."

He knew that Ian had obtained the crystal bone long ago when he ate the sea otter steak, so that all the potion materials for the apprentice Sand Armor had been gathered.

"Um."

How could Ian not hear that his teacher didn't want to talk to him about his predicament? The other party diverted the topic, just didn't say "why did he suddenly have a lot of wrinkles when he was fine before" - he had seen this two months ago, but he had always been avoided by the other party.

Now, since Hilliard was talking about the potion, he could only sigh in his heart, and then continued: "I tried to kill the chief sea otter, its crystal bone is much bigger than I thought. , will this be redundant?"

"Of course not, potions don't care about size, their essence is to absorb the essence of all things and transform the essence of life."

Hilliard nodded. He smiled and said, "I knew you had a way to accomplish your goals, so tomorrow I have asked for leave from work, so that if there is an accident, I can help take care of it."

Having said that, Hilliard's tone was that he didn't think Ian would fail at all.

As a teacher, his confidence is more than Ian himself.

True Form Inheritance - Fudo Fortress has five stages, corresponding to energy levels one to five, and the stage corresponding to the first energy level is the 'Sand Armor Apprentice'.

The magic medicine of the sand armor apprentice, the main materials are a 'Beast sublimation organ with the ability to manipulate sand, gravel and soil', a 'Beast sublimation organ with the ability to strengthen the body', the auxiliary materials are 100 ml of purified water, pure silicon 10 gram, the leaves of fertile soil (commonly known as blood-tonifying grass) 15 grams.

There is no need to talk about other scattered small ingredients, they are all cheap things that can be bought in the market.

Unlike Bloodline Inheritance, the main material of Bloodline Inheritance can never be changed, and the auxiliary materials can be more casual, while True Form Inheritance is not only the main material that can be replaced casually as long as it meets the conditions, the basic effect is basically the same as long as the auxiliary materials are not too different. .

"Eat something first. You don't need to take the potion on an empty stomach. It's better to say that although that thing is used to drink it, as long as you want, injecting it into a blood vessel with a syringe has the same effect, which is more intense. "

Under Hilliard's urging, Ian ate a few mouthfuls of the meat pot. It was indeed delicious and rich. Although it could not be said that it melted in the mouth, the taste was indeed excellent.

But at this moment, he was a little less in the mood.

Carrying the seafood porridge cooked on the other side into his brother's room, Ian went to feed Elan again.

"Brother... delicious!"

Grip the spoon firmly and make a muffled sound, that's the best Elam can give.

And Ian laughed. He tugged at the corner of Ellen's mouth, and pulled out the spoon by the way: "Look what you said, next time it's 'friend, delicious', right?"

"Eat!" The young child obviously couldn't understand what his brother was playing, but he patted the table very energetically and repeated.

"Snack food."

Ian was still very happy to see that Elan was more and more able to express his thoughts and thoughts.

According to this trend, the other party should be able to completely return to normal before the age of six or seven. The Terran's physique is indeed beyond his imagination, and high-level tranquilizers like sleeping powder can't have a permanent effect on the nerves.

Feeling a lot better, Ian turned around and saw Hilliard at the door of the room.

"Don't worry, I checked Ellan's question. He is very smart, his brain development has not been affected, and his body is not deformed."

Glancing at Ellen, the old knight said calmly: "To be honest, he should be healthier than when he was the same age as you, at least he has never been hungry."

"correct."

Seemingly remembering something, Hilliard nodded and said, "If there is no accident today, you can become a real Ascendant... In order to celebrate this moment, I specially prepared a gift for you."

"what?"

Ian was really surprised, he blinked, then laughed: "Then I'm really looking forward to it, teacher."

He wouldn't be confused to guess what other people's gifts were.

and……

It's...a bit of a clumsy guy.

- Afraid that I will feel unhappy about being fooled? So bluntly ran over to bring up the topic, afraid that I would be sullen, really treat me as a child?

"The teacher must have never brought children."

Thinking of this, Ian couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "Forget it, the old man in his seventies must have his own plans."

"He's not afraid, and I can only watch and help. If it's a big deal, I will give him old age."

The threat of the indigenous people is not worth mentioning, the sequelae of the younger brother are gradually cured, and his potion is about to be completed, and everything is stable and improving.

This kind of life...isn't bad.

With this in mind, Ian and Hilliard returned to the table and happily finished the rest of the meal.

At night, under the direction of Hilliard, Ian began to take the potion of the sand armor apprentice.
