High Above

This is just a guess.

Ian didn't dare to say what the original purpose of Inaiga II was.

But there is no doubt that the master of the maze he wants to be is not ordinary.

It's just that, anyway, this guess can at least explain some of the puzzling elements.

The boy didn't continue this topic, he had already got the answer he wanted from Master Gesai, knowing what he should do in the second energy level, or even the third energy level in the future.

Condensing the source quality, sublimating the source quality structure - this he has achieved perfection.

And the next step is the soul and psionic energy structure of the second energy level.

Master Gesai is old, and it will be difficult for him to become the third energy level, but it is not impossible, so the preparations are also very good, and the key elements are also told to Ian.

"Ian..."

At this moment, Ian and Master Gosser were silent in the rain, as if they were thinking about something.

Isengard opened his mouth, he seemed to have something to say to the white-haired boy, but he hesitated.

"What's wrong?"

Ian turned his head and looked at Isengard.

He thought that the other party wanted to ask him some questions about cultivation and alchemy, but he didn't expect the blond boy to hesitate for a while before he said lightly, "We are...friends, right?"

— Just ask this?

"Of course." Ian didn't hold back, he laughed out loud: "We lived and died together in the underground ruins, and fought together several times. We were not friends before, but now we are friends."

However, after laughing, Ian felt a little emotional—I am afraid that Isengard's interpersonal relationship, except for his classmates, basically does not know a few peers, and with his talent, it is estimated that his classmates are not of the same age.

Coupled with the vague rejection from the family, Isengard really doesn't have many friends.

"OK."

Although at first Ian's laughter made him bow his head under his collar in shame, but soon, Isengarde's expression returned to normal, only the ears were a little red: "Then, look forward to the next meeting, my friend .”

Ian also nodded with a smile: "Well, goodbye."

So they said goodbye and waited to see each other next time.

Master Gosser and Isengard got into the carriage and left—they were not sure whether there were other killers besides Patrick, so this trip was deliberately covered up by Viscount Grant, except for Ian, no one knew what they were doing now When the time left, I just thought that the two of them were resting in the Viscount's mansion.

If it's not a killer, naturally they don't care when the two leave. If it's a killer, there is a high probability of being deceived.

Ian watched the carriage turn across the street and leave in the direction of the west gate, feeling a little delicate in his heart.

Master Goser and Isengard are the intermediary points for him to spy on the entire Terra world from Harrison Port-it is because of their existence that Ian found the opportunity to go to the outside world.

"Soon."

Shaking his head slightly, Ian turned around and walked towards his small shop and his workshop.

He still had a few things to do before leaving Port Harrison.

For example, helping Shasha break through the second energy level.

If Ian is the protagonist on the surface of this trip to the South China Sea maze, in fact the biggest hero is definitely Shark.

Whether it is detecting pirate armor and blocking the bombardment of pirate fleets, or hindering the pursuit of Tenglan moray eels, shark sharks have played a vital role.

Not to mention, inside the ruins, it was Shashark who kept pulling away the Tenglan Giant Eel, and on the way out of the maze, the two fast frigates that created Feiyandi couldn't move one after another.

Many battles would be much more troublesome without Sharks.

Emotionally and rationally, Ian had to make Shasha, the acting master of the maze, stronger, even if it was just to ensure that the ruins under the South China Sea Great Labyrinth would not be noticed by follow-up adventurers so quickly.

I didn't go back to the shop or workshop for more than a week. Both the container and the documents on the table were full of dust.

Except for the small metal box at the bottom of the building that was probably sent by Master Goser, Ian didn't see any traces of anyone else visiting his shop.

Most of the documents on the table are formulas made by Ian’s experimental inscriptions. Let alone other people, even Ian himself has to record data with a prophet’s perspective and a silver chip to remember what those things mean and the degree of encryption. Higher than the transliteration of southern dialects.

"I feel that next time I can use the 'maintenance inscription' found in the ruins to ensure cleanliness, but I don't know how much energy is consumed."

Ian’s gains in the ruins this time can’t be said to be better than nothing, it can only be said to be full of water. Apart from other things, the various inscriptions alone are enough for Ian to study hard for several years.

From the maintenance runes of the maintenance relics, to Qingchao's long sword, plus the "ether conversion inscription" of the Spiritual Tool Church, if you study it thoroughly, you may be able to carry many large-scale engineering equipment or alchemy equipment in the future, which is very convenient .

Sitting on the chair at the workbench, Ian opened the metal box, and then gasped at the light released from the box——

He saw a whole row of Warcraft-level elemental crystals. Although they were all small crystal particles like Shimmering Crystal Shells, they just couldn't be used for ether armament. Whether it was used as a potion material or as an energy source, it was enough. Precious, worth hundreds of thalers.

And some other materials are the 'fluorescent algae' and 'sun algae' produced by the mutation of the labyrinth. They happen to be the mature 'algae' that Ian himself identified, and the quality is quite good.

In addition, Master Gesai stuffed a few books under the box. Ian browsed through them and was sure that they were middle and advanced alchemy textbooks from the imperial capital, with rows of clear explanations written on them.

"...It's really troublesome."

After being silent for a while, Ian couldn't help sighing—the monster materials and fluorescent algae are nothing more than money.

And those middle and advanced alchemy textbooks are the real priceless treasures, knowledge that money can't buy.

But now is not the time to delve into alchemy textbooks.

Ian took out an ingot of sterling silver from a side cabinet.

"When I became a hive, besides absorbing Elan, I also absorbed Shashark—even those three dragon eggs were accepted by me, and finally fused into three crystallized ultimate dragon Dora."

"Leaving aside what system the Crystalline Ultimate Dragon is, Shasha was transformed into a giant weapon platform by me who was transformed into a hive at that time... To be honest, it is not a very innovative choice, but it is indeed strong enough."

Recalling the scenery in the dream of the worm's nest, Ian weighed the silver ingot in his hand, and he pondered for a moment: "The armored shark, the armored shark, this is an advanced step in quality. After becoming the armored shark, the armored shark will become Thoroughly metal-based life, the whole body is covered by high-strength alloys, and its reaction speed and sensitivity are far better than before, and it can even go deep into the magma layer to find high-energy minerals."

"But the Whale Shark on the island after that seems to not know how to become stronger, so it can only make itself bigger."

"Growing is indeed a part of evolution, but it is definitely not necessary... I, who has become a hive, regards the enlarged shark as a giant battleship, and installs a variety of high-energy artillery, using the technology of pre-epoch civilization to turn it Armed to the teeth, but I feel that this should not be a serious way to advance in the Shark series."

Just like human beings, from the source quality, to the soul, and then to the fusion of the life spirit energy and the mind light body - Ian thinks that the shark should also condense the soul at the second energy level, and then derive Its own spiritual power.

Next, according to the type of psionic ability, determine the follow-up advanced route.

"The soul has a great relationship with the efficient way of thinking, and if the shark wants to think faster, it needs to reshape the neural network with precious metals such as silver and gold."

Ian has confirmed last time that the Iron Shark is essentially a man-made biological tool. Its thinking upgrade is actually similar to a computer upgrade. It needs better and sharper materials to make 'CPU' and motherboard, so if you just want it, but the shark The shark is generally advanced, just let it drink more precious metal solution.

But the thing is, better.

How to make a computer, or in other words, a metal life, use its own physical advantages and characteristics more efficiently?

the answer is……

"It has to be able to transform itself, upgrade itself, and control its own energy..."

Ian stopped weighing the silver ingots in his hands. He thought of the box sent by Master Goser and the glittering crystal shells in the box: "It's electricity."

"It's electricity!"

At this moment, an idea gradually came to the boy's mind: "Electromagnetism, optoelectronics... As the teacher told me back then, it is easy to find the inheritance of advanced materials in South China Sea..."

"Thunderhunting jellyfish communicate their minds to each other via electric currents,"

"Aurora Titan!" He opened his eyes wide: "Yes, this is it!"
