High Above

The gray-haired director's heart felt cold - he really felt cold. Ian's ice sword condensed with the blood of the goblin was pressed against the back of his heart. The ultra-low temperature that was enough to cause muscle necrosis gradually spread, making him feel instantly A heart attack.

Snap, the director knelt on the ground, and Ian's hair danced like the tentacles of a jellyfish, and flowing ice water wrapped around the director's hands and feet, and then froze and imprisoned him in place.

At this moment, the gray-haired director only had one pair of eyes to move, and the horrified look he looked at Ian proved that he had not understood at all how the patrol knight in sublimated armor in front of him could get past the numerous guards and underground experiments. The room is like a maze-like corridor, so you can find your place so directly.

——The answer is psychic energy!

To be honest, Ian just ‘walked in’, simple as that.

You know, he has clairvoyance. Is it difficult to bypass the guards and walk through the maze? In addition to the prize obtained in the alchemy test, the Silent Sound Ring made by the master, it is impossible for anyone to find his traces.

Ian arrived here after leisurely shopping, and it didn't even take five minutes.

How could these laboratory researchers, who were not good at fighting, and the guards who had suffered too many losses to maintain a defensive circle, be able to stop him.

Moreover, it was a good thing that they hadn't discovered it, otherwise, they would have died.

"It seems that you are the leader of this laboratory. Let me take a look at your badge... Heh, Director Idema, I didn't expect you to be a big fish."

Ian deliberately used a frost sword to cut open Director Idema's flesh and blood, and used frost to freeze his blood vessels. He said in a slow but cruel tone: "How do you think you should die? "

He watched the gray-haired director squirm crazily in fear, and the young man smiled happily: "Okay, don't be afraid."

"A big shot wants to see you."

With that said, Ian raised his left hand and melted the ice blocking Director Idma's mouth.

A bird of light appeared in the young man's palm, and the director who had originally planned to shout "guard" immediately felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

Although Ian, as a source of cold air, could indeed make him fall into the ice cave in a physical sense, what frightened him even more was this seemingly ordinary bird of light.

"Mikael...your highness?"

He murmured to himself, and then burst into tears: "Your Highness! Your Highness! I am one of my own! I am the spy who said he wanted to surrender! It's me, it's me!"

【oh? 】

In response, Mikael said in a rather intriguing tone: [Surrender? But I see, aren't you still serving the Grand Duke well, and have no intention of abiding by our original agreement? 】

[——If an accident occurs, you will bring relevant information to our staff as soon as possible, and we will be responsible for ensuring your personal life safety and ensuring your position in the relevant research institutes in the future. Our agreement should be very clear]

【You didn't do that】

"Your Highness, Your Highness!"

Director Idema was squirming on the ground like a worm, trying to get close to Ian's shoes and kowtow for mercy - but Ian kicked the head of the research director on the corner of the table.

In other words, the skin of the sublimated ones is strong enough. The director has no fighting ability, but his physique is quite good and he is still very energetic. He continues to turn over and continue to beg for mercy: "I have been waiting, waiting for our troops to pick me up!"

"But I haven't been able to wait, so I really have no choice but to continue to stay here... I have no choice!"

【I gave you three chances】

Mikael said calmly: [And you gave up every time]

The director looked at Ian and the Bird of Light with a blank look on his face. The second prince obviously found it very troublesome - he really didn't like talking to such a mentally retarded fool. A talent like Ian could perfectly understand the meaning of every word he said. It's what he likes.

But the problem is that a person like Ian would not make such stupid and low-level mistakes as Director Idema.

Therefore, he shook his head and said: [The first opportunity - the first time you leave the Awak territory with the information when the abnormality occurs, you will naturally be protected by the empire. There is a team of ours at the border, and they will escort you to the Imperial Capital]

[As it turned out, you didn’t. You stayed motionless in your laboratory and didn’t know what you were thinking about]

[Second opportunity - A team of patrol knights came to the Azure City to explore. As long as you surrender to them and seek asylum, they will immediately end the reconnaissance mission and escort you, information and even some of your favorite colleagues back to the imperial capital]

[But you didn’t. You controlled the phantoms and strange beasts to kill that patrol knight team. I really don’t know what was going on in your head. You were all surrendering, but you actually dared to kill the patrol knights. knight? You were already sentenced to death at that time】

Director Idema was stunned when he heard this. His eyes rolled as if he wanted to explain something.

——How do I know that is your person, Your Highness? ! How dare I risk my life on something like this...

[If you don’t dare to gamble, you dare to betray Grand Duke Thorin? If you don't act when you're given the chance, why don't you just wait for us to send troops in to find you openly? How on earth did you get the director position? 】

The second prince really felt that talking to stupid people was a waste of energy. The Bird of Light shook his head: [The third time - you even attacked the team where my heart light body is]

[Idma, you are so bold]

"Your Highness, Your Highness..."

At this moment, Idma was at a loss. He had no idea that the so-called 'opportunities' were actually the moments he regarded as 'crises'... But how dare he? How dare he do that in such a dangerous situation? !

In this regard, Ian's comments were "dish" and "stupid".

Director Idema put it bluntly, like a believer who has been waiting for God to rescue him in a flood, but ended up rejecting God's rope to rescue him from the predicament time and time again.

Of course, this does require risk taking.

But trying to get results without taking risks is just... stupid.

And nausea.

It's like a low-level scientific researcher who doesn't sacrifice himself, but instead sacrifices others as materials for his own experiments. It's disgusting.

[No need to say more, Idma, give me the secret key]

The second prince's heart light body said lightly: [You must die, but I will give you mercy - I will not call you a traitor, you will die gloriously in the hands of him, this young knight, and become his credit]

[And your family members in the Grand Duchy will also be treated like the family members of martyrs and can survive]

Saying this, Mikael seemed to recall something. He raised his wings and pretended to be surprised: "Oh, I forgot - you don't care about your family at all. You even wish you could let your poor wife go earlier." The child dies so that you can stay and fly with your rich lover]

【But you only have this choice】

"I……"

Even facing Ian who was exuding a chill, Idma still struggled, wanting to say something to bargain. Mikael's eyes had become quite impatient, and Ian also felt that the other party really had enough. Stupid, I didn't get to the point after talking for a long time, it was a bit delayed.

So he simply thrust his sword into the gray-haired director's heart, freezing his heart and lungs.

"It's too much trouble, Your Highness."

Ian said calmly, he pulled out the Frost Sword, and then slashed open the head of Idma, whose eyes widened in disbelief at the boy's actions. Before the opponent was completely brain-dead, he reached out and took out the opponent's brain from behind the brainstem. There was a piece of 'attached brain' that was still squirming and the size of a human finger.

Staring at the attached brain in his hand, the young man shrugged: "Look."

"I've found the key."

【Um】

The second prince was not angry at all. Instead, he took a breath and turned his head to look at Ian.

Even though it’s just a bird, Mikael’s expression is full of smiles: [Well done, Ian]

[Sure enough, I still feel comfortable talking to you]
