Steel Steam and Flame

Cassia shook his head: "There are more questions. There should be no similarities between us."

"It's understandable to be careful, but Mr. Tussos, please listen to me." Zimmer expected this reaction. He paused for a while to figure out the next words. "I think Mr. Tussos must know. "Experiences of Strange Creatures" are all from Pekins, the first Patriarch. Mr. Tussos must have doubted his identity for a long time. What is the creature in the book, no need to say more here, he is not an ordinary person. Things that can be seen and tracked. Even though there are many stories in the book that are collected, I can clearly tell one thing here that the first family, Pekins, as a very good and qualified adventurer, has been passed down. The story is exactly what he is interested in, and will actually prove it. So every chapter in it is true, there is no doubt about this."

"Then according to the time written in the book..." Cassia continued.

"As you think, our Kiris family is not an imperial member. It came from other continents, but due to the special circumstances of the subsequent period, the first Patriarch Pekinz did not return. He stayed in the empire, so gradually The Kiris family. It’s just that there are many vignettes in it. Like the two most widely circulated books in a specific area, it is difficult to find the second, fourth, and sixth volumes of "Ancient Ruins" in the empire. The same is true in "Experiences of Strange Creatures", which belongs to other countries. For adventurers, the map has only borders, not national boundaries. Perkins has traveled through most of the posterior continent and saw everything he wants to see And compiled into books one by one."

"Finally I chose to live in the new empire. Originally with his ability, as long as he had the will, the empire at that time would definitely have a stage for him to play, but he did not do so. It was out of the soul of an adventurer. It is his life's pursuit for the bound soul to explore the unknown mystery. The result is also the same. In his later years, he took the giant wheel and disappeared forever in the endless sea."

"This is probably his life." Zimmer said with a serious expression, "As his descendants, we have inherited some of his characteristics. Not complete, but in a long time, every Individuals have found what they are interested in, and they have always been the most in exploring this area. Among them, there are also business people, bright business, as the main source of family operation funds. Gradually, after all, the mainland is dead. Yes, the place that can be explored cannot withstand the erosion of time after all. The field that cannot be entered will never be set by us. So in a period of time, the word'before' enters our field of vision, or observation History, relying on the accumulation and inheritance of generations, has gradually declined, and we have a new direction."

"Ancient ruins and the events before the birth of various countries?" Cassia said, "As long as it is properly recorded, text alone can really make people feel the shock of the historical process to a large extent. With a limited life, you can appreciate more than this. The landscape for a period of time is full of temptation and attraction for everyone."

"As a textbook that has been carefully sculpted by many excellent writers, I have to admit that there is really no room for rebuttal. It's just that compared to looking for these things in books or pictures, it is inevitable that the amount will be accumulated. Lost sense of reality. Surgery happens to help us make this possibility hopeful. Permanent life is unrealistic, but it also greatly prolongs the time of our aging. Because of the first Patriarch, we always spend time in recording and exploring. Period. We have learned a lot from it. The evolution of the empire can be said to be from new birth to maturity, and then to a complete entity that people cannot guess. Our experience comes from a thousand years of history. Please allow us to call ourselves observers. Observation means learning. Let us know a lot. The manipulation of information comes from this."

"Then we have nothing in common except for this transaction. Mr. Zimmer, I agree with what you just said, but it is not my purpose."

"No, no, the above are the things we have always insisted on, but we are also changing over time. It is not a big family, but at least the history is as long as the empire. Knowing things can be converted into money with a little processing. And other things. Like these two books, we sold them ourselves, and we have our own printing factory, which is also one of the family’s sources of income." Zimmer laughed and took a sip of the wine brought by Ni Liya , "Some of them can't keep up with the pace of the present, but they are also experienced for a long time-only by ourselves, we can't complete the things we want to explore."

"Relying on the control of information, waiting for the people you want to find and filter them yourself is one of the changed strategies?" Cassia said, "You should not lack manpower."

"We are not lacking both in terms of quantity and funding. What is lacking is quality. In other words, as far as the Kiris family is concerned, the number is not large. Even if everyone undergoes surgery, the ultimate growth is not optimistic. A huge base is needed. We have absolutely failed to build a high pyramid structure. I would like to ask if Mr. Tussos knows the expansion method of the twenty-third public family?"

Seeing Cassia nodding his head, Zimmer smiled with satisfaction: "Then our conversation may be much simpler. We did not adopt that method, but the quality must be increased at this time. So we, who are often active in the dark world, chose The way of the supplier and the intermediary. You can refer to the intermediary agent, you can understand Mr. Tussos."

"But you don't have substantive commodities. Knowledge and information can be transmitted to each other, and steel barriers can't stop them."

"So there is a need for someone like you, Mr. Tussos, on the one hand, as a source of collection of supply information, to achieve sharing, and each obtains what they want from it, without interfering with each other. History and ancient sites reveal too much , I have already said that it takes time without specific numbers to fully explore it on my own. So far, the content of continuous research has long surpassed the first family Pekins."

"Now, I, and other members of the Kiris family, want to show these unknowns clearly before my eyes while I'm alive. So I need people who share common interests or interests. This can be regarded as an alternative. I think this kind of connection is sometimes stronger than blood. On the other hand, it is also an executor. Because everything will change, even after the screening, accidents will occur. The Chilish family has been so long. Here, I have seen too many similar things, not everyone can maintain their original mood in the face of temptation. Here, we have also changed too much. But at least our goal and starting point have not changed ."

"Let the people you select become gray names again? Obliteration, or hypnosis?"

"It's probably all obliteration. Please allow me to say this. You can probably understand the value of this kind of thing in the empire. So this is a two-way decision. If you agree, Mr. Tuxos, it's like signing an agreement with us. , Like the intermediary agents in the dark world. As long as we follow the rules, we will pay the corresponding remuneration, which can be money or materials, or information and historical and ancient site materials that you are interested in."

Soon after leaving the tavern, Cassia injected dragon blood into his body, relying on increased perception to make sure that no one was following behind him, and then merged with Delya and the others.

"Everything goes well?" Seeing Cassia's thoughtful look, Delya asked.

Wake up from thinking, Cassia nodded. The black box has been discarded, and the book has been checked and there is no traceable signal source on it. Zimmer's words made him think a lot. He had this idea when he started collecting books on the black market, or when the other party wanted to see the buyer himself. It may be a bait. The book itself does not hide anything, but the information revealed in it can indeed be reminiscent of a lot.

Perkins Kiris was not a member of the empire. He came to the Manor Kingdom before the establishment of the empire. In addition to the adventurer and the zoologist, it is unknown whether he has any other identities. It is definitely not simple. The Kirish family extended by him is not what Zimmer said. It is true that exploring the unknown is their purpose, but it does not affect the inclusion of other things.

Cassia remembered the specific area of ​​the post-phase continent. It was probably impossible to travel through most of the post-phase continent during the period of the Mano Kingdom and the early days of the establishment of the empire without institutional and material support behind him.

Sooner or later I would be targeted for such in-depth exploration, I didn't expect to get in by myself. Some things will always be known to a small number of people. But Cassia wants to be a minority.

Zimmer took Ni Liya to the second floor of the basement of the tavern. There are common types of analysis machines and self-modified communication machines. After manually inputting the name of Tuxos into the analysis machine, a line of coded values ​​appeared, and a simple data was spit out from the printer.

"Really worth it?" Ni Liya asked when she handed over the information.

"Is it about Tuxos himself or something else?" Zimmer asked, looking at the thin sheet of paper.

"Maybe both."

"There is nothing worthy and not worthy, one as a means, one as the duty that Kiris started from the first Patriarch Perkins~www.ltnovel.com~ Don’t forget our identity, even if we have been completely The empire is assimilated, but sometimes, this kind of hidden game is what we like. The first family Pekins was chosen because of this special system? Surgery strengthened the characteristics, and the environment later Education and indoctrination, we can all be regarded as a model with different characteristics."

"But as long as we complete the Pope’s order and conduct our research at the same time. Observe history, obtain data from real cases, look for weaknesses, and find solutions to some problems, and then feed back to ourselves-I have to admit The past was very clever. When faced with the situation in the mainland, the situation in the mainland was completely out of control. This method was used to prepare for it, and take advantage of the trend to obtain non-physical benefits. Now, it may not have the ability to reverse out of thin air, but history will not lie, and use it properly. There are unexpected effects."

"An example of the second generation of knight kings?" Ni Liya asked, "The most dazzling credit that is often mentioned on our lips is a huge gap in strength, shaped like a soft snowflake, but the snowball formed by rolling still has a good impact. The direction of information formation gave a choice, and the empire in power at that time did indeed choose. We have existed for so long or rely on the history of hundreds of years ago to linger, otherwise we would have been withdrawn or abandoned."

"Just know it. According to the data, after the death of the second-generation knight king of the empire hundreds of years ago, there was a great purge on us. The empire cannot tolerate our existence in the body. It is not easy to survive. Fortunately, there is that. The help of the emperor of the times. It can be regarded as a defect created by the empire itself. Compared with the establishment of the state of religion, it is only six hundred years later. But it is also because of these six hundred years that it is enough to change too much and make the state of religion The giant countries on the Hexiang continent have always stood in an advantageous position."
