High Above

"Baron Silver Peak! Please allow me to shake hands with you!"

"I'm extremely grateful. If it weren't for your command and prediction, Baron, I'm afraid our general would have died in the hands of the Lord of the Labyrinth..."

"The people of Yanjiang must repay their kindness. Mr. Yinfeng, your command is really exquisite. I heard that you faced the special operations team of Feiyandi in Nanling and defeated three construct knights head-on. It is really an amazing record. !”

"If Bachelor Elgar is severely injured or even dies... the City of Knowledge will definitely suffer a major blow!"

"Please allow me to take you to meet everyone who wants to meet you..."

As soon as he stepped out of the armored transport cabin, Ian was surrounded by a group of extremely enthusiastic but restrained officials and Ascensioners from various countries - it is not appropriate to say that he was surrounded, because they were actually very polite and kept social distance. The eyes are very hot and the voice is very loud.

As for why Ian is so popular...it's actually quite normal.

Mahdi is indeed the only protagonist of this Xenogeneic Research Institute exploration operation.

From fighting against the young masters of various countries alone, to fighting the Lord of the Labyrinth, to successfully defeating the Lord of the Labyrinth, driving the dragon body to the Dragon Island, and at the same time withstood the fifth-level attack...

This experience is undoubtedly a true legend, enough to be talked about by future generations for decades.

But others are not there.

Although Ian is slightly inferior, he has also done several very important things!

First of all, when facing the dark gold dragon, the master of the labyrinth, if Ian had not used his prophetic power to decisively command and help all the young strong men avoid the dark gold dragon's attack area and predict the scope of damage, I am afraid that not many people would have survived.

Secondly, under the command of Ian, the young powerhouses who were properly coordinated and used the Heart Light Body of their fathers and seniors successfully achieved the best coordination effect and severely damaged the Lord of the Labyrinth, giving Mahdi the opportunity to use it. Delay and save everyone's lives.

at last……

The Ian people are right in front of you!

There is no benefit in bragging about Mahdi, but if you brag about Ian, if nothing else, you might get a chance to make a prophecy in the future?

There was no definite news from the empire, but after Carlos and Aina settled down, they immediately contacted Canaan Moore's move to send people to find Ian, as well as a few words of emotion from Carlos himself, which made everyone excited. It can be seen that the eldest prince of the empire might have died under Campani's attack due to various accidents.

Thanks to Ian's prediction of his death, the eldest prince, who had been prepared in advance, summoned his father, Axel, the Earthkeeper, one of the strongest fifth-level Terrans.

The arrival of the defenders defused Campani's attack, saving the lives of many people who would have been injured or dead, and all this was because of the prophet's predictions.

This is the power of the prophet. There are many things that can be solved at the minimum cost as long as their 'existence' is known in advance.

Of course, there is another more important reason.

"Although Mahdi should be Ian's senior brother, no matter how you look at it, Ian has full command..."

"Ian should be the one in charge of the First Knight, right?"

"I saw the way the Mahdi obeyed the instructions without hesitation. It felt like his mind was completely empty. He must have followed the instructions of the prophet in this way!"

"If the Mahdi's temper is as straight and tough as the First Knight, then it would be easier to chat with the considerate Baron Silver Peak..."

This is also a very important reason.

After everyone gathered around Ian to thank him, they didn't get too entangled. They just expressed their attitude and the forces behind him, and then made way for Ian and others to go to their camp.

"Now he's a big star."

Ethan commented objectively: "Although most of those people have ulterior motives, they are not malicious. If you are interested, Ian, you can chat with several parties in private. Whether it is connections or investments, you will definitely gain a lot. .”

"You have grown up a lot, and you can actually help me think about these things." Ian raised his eyebrows. He originally wanted to tease Ethan, but his expression moved slightly and he looked at the old figure standing next to the camp.

Master Gosei stood there expressionless.

Following Ian's gaze to the side, after realizing this, the smile on Ethan's face slowly disappeared.

"Um."

When Ethan walked up to Master Gosei, the old man snorted lightly, and then lowered his voice and said: "When you grow up and become stronger, trouble will come, right?"

This voice suppressed anger and worry. The old man stretched out his hand and rubbed Ethan's hair vigorously: "I was really scared to death by you. When I heard Carlos said to me, you are not with him, neither in CA When Nanmoor’s team was not among the Empire’s team, my heart went cold for a moment!”

He scolded like this, but both Ethan and Ian on the side realized that the old man was not really so angry.

In other words, there is an element of anger, but it is more of a performance.

Master Gosei's inscribed prosthetic eye turned slightly, infrared rays flashed, and he communicated with Ian: [What's going on, the 'Mahdi' went to Dragon Island, I saw it with my own eyes...]

Ian's eyes moved slightly, and he replied using the special soul frequency of the Soul of Origin: [Temporary disguised body, complete fairy blood. Don't worry, Master, there will be no danger for Ethan and me together]

[Of course I am not worried about the prophet. Unless I want to die, otherwise it will be absolutely easy to find a way out.] Master Gosei said: [In any case, at least the attention is completely attracted by your other identity. Your identity should be It's really safer. But don’t be too careless. As far as I know, the Academy of Gnosis and the Academy of Truth have already planned to send people to contact you and ask about the First Knight]

[However, don’t worry about this. They just came here to ask a question, and by the way, they will register the files about the prophet for you... We need to implement your name as the prophet, and the next promotion and increase in benefits will be based on this]

Elder Gosei had to show his anger, but in fact he was not very worried, so after scolding the noisy juniors in front of him, he ushered everyone into the camp.

"Jinghaiwei will come to talk to you later."

He said to Ian: "I will take Ethan over first to report to his mother - Mrs. Ellen is quite worried."

"I told my mother in advance..." Ethan's eyes wandered, and while Xiou and Anfa showed a slightly gloating smile, Master Gosei also said to them: "Ms. Anfa, your mother Ms. Chialetta is waiting for you at Canaan Moor Camp."

"Miss Xio... um. I don't need to say anything."

"Ah." With the smile still hanging on his face, Xio's prosthetic body fell straight down. Ian raised his hand to hold it, and immediately discovered that his friend's dragon soul had disappeared - hey, where else could it be? , must have been called away by the King of the Mountain.

"I have to go too, Ian..." Anfa sighed. She was not as embarrassed as Xiou. Instead, she found a corner of the camp and sat down very skillfully, fixing herself in place. Then the soul disappeared, and the prosthetic body stayed where it was.

"...This will probably be considered my daily routine from now on?"

Ian blinked, shook his head and sighed. He placed Xio's prosthetic body next to Anfa's prosthetic body, and said helplessly: "No, I'm not so worried... My star soul is one level higher than their dragon soul, which causes both sides of me to have trouble. It’s the main body and must be controlled at the same time.”

"Fortunately, Dragon Island is still healing, otherwise, flaws may be exposed accidentally."

The teammates scattered and were arrested by their parents and elders to ask about the process of exploring the ruins. Ian was instantly alone.

He had nothing to say, he could only hope that everyone could keep his confession - even if he really leaked the truth, it wouldn't be a big problem. After all, neither Xio nor Ethan would have anything to do with Axel or Axel. Other fifth level shared information.

And Anfa is the most mentally mature of all people, but Ian doesn't need to worry.

The confrontation between the fifth-level powerhouses has gone beyond the orbit of the planet. With the rapid repair of the atmosphere, the phenomenon of psychic lightning radiation caused by the collapse of the virtual realm can no longer be seen.

Ian raised his head and asked for a glass of orange juice from the waiter. While drinking, he looked up at the sky thoughtfully: "Terra's atmosphere can repair itself much faster than I thought."

"Although I know that there is an ecosystem in the atmosphere, and there are sublimated organisms accelerating in it, but it is too fast to return to normal in less than half a day."

After learning the 'truth' about the pre-epochal civilization, the Star God and the End, Ian looked back at Terra and discovered many things that had been subconsciously ignored in the past.

The planet itself contains many secrets...the sublimation materials that are continuously produced, the ecological environment and planetary cycle that recover at an absurdly fast speed...

As long as you stay away from Terra, the amount of sublimation materials will decrease. In contrast, even on the planets closest to the sun, the amount of sublimation materials is not much greater than elsewhere, and it is far less than that around Terra.

This seems to mean that... Terra's power in the transformation of source matter even exceeds that of the sun.

More than a star.

Why?

If in the past, Ian would still wonder 'why', then now, he has a universal answer in his heart.

——Hey, what else could it be? The Star God’s legacy.

But the power of this Star God's legacy is absolutely unprecedented.

"The Path of the Fading Star didn't give me a complete revelation. He cared so much about speed that he left Terra without taking many things. I don't know how I resisted that. My personality should be The kind of person who won’t open a new map until the mission is completed.”

Ian was not in a hurry as he complained about himself on another path. Anyway, as his strength became stronger, he would gradually get more clues and information.

Apart from anything else, when I wake up on Long Island, I will most likely be able to use all the information on Long Island for so many years!

And just when Ian was looking up at the sky, emptying his mind, he didn't even know what he was thinking.

Mirror Sea Guard is here.

As a patrol knight, Ian is quite curious about the Mirror Sea Guard, who is as famous as the patrol knight.

In his opinion, the Inspector Knight is a bit like a special police officer plus the FBI, with a little bit of a guard element.

Jinghaiwei, on the other hand, prefers the aristocratic prosecutor's office plus the CIA, with a little bit of the royal guard.

"Hello, Baron Silver Peak, I am Medley Izar of Mirror Sea Guards. I'm sorry to disturb your rest, but we need to understand the situation from you."

Several tall figures came to the temporary tent tent where Ian was in the camp with very contrasting steps. They wore silver armor that looked like a mirror, but anyone who was an ascendant could notice that this armor gave People's sesame response is extremely small. Although their bodies can be seen with the eyes, the sesame perception is as if there is only a small insect.

Ian knows that this is the characteristic of the Mirror Sea Guards. Their mirror armor can not only make them optically invisible, but can also reduce the intensity of the source of sensory feedback to achieve perceived invisibility.

But for him, Ian had noticed that this group of people was approaching him as early as 800 meters away.

"Please come in."

Ian spoke, and Jinghaiwei said "I'm sorry" and came to the tent.

Captain Medley is not usually a particularly polite person. Even when facing nobles, he always has a simple and direct style and never uses any honorifics.

Especially for ordinary barons and viscounts in rural areas, as a guard directly under the royal family, Medley has always had a sense of superiority in his heart.

It is true that he does not have a noble title, but his status is far more noble than some minor nobles. When they want to investigate information about a noble in a certain place, they often do not need any secret investigation. As long as they go directly to the local noble's mansion, those people have to obey him. Enough evidence to bring them to the noble court.

Because everyone knows that if you confess and surrender yourself, it will be fine, and at most you will be deprived of your title and exiled to the frontier. But if the people from Jinghaiwei are allowed to take action, it will increase their workload...

Then it really means that you can't live but cannot die, and God knows how much you will suffer.

But say so.

When Captain Medley and his team members actually entered the tent and closed the curtain of the tent, with a uniform clang, the four burly Mirror Sea Guards all knelt down in front of Ian. .

"ah?"

Even Ian couldn't help but turn his head and looked at this scene with surprised eyes. The orange juice in his hand had concentric ripples: "Everyone, what does this mean?"

"Sir, there were a lot of people outside just now. I have to do business..."

Medley took the lead. The middle-aged knight took off his helmet and said with great sincerity: "You don't have to answer our questions at all, but on the surface we have to come over to investigate. It really disturbs your rest..."

"Is that why?"

Ian couldn't help feeling a little funny, but thinking about it carefully, it didn't seem strange.

His current identity is a prophet, one of the strongest young geniuses in the empire, and his prophecy even saved the life of the eldest prince.

And who is the eldest prince? President Jinghaiwei leads it!

Carlos is their immediate boss, and even if they give these Mirror Sea Guards 10,000 courages, they would not dare to actually come over and 'ask themselves about the situation'... How can anyone here ask the superiors about the situation?

Especially since Ian had theoretically just come out of the ruins and wanted to rest.

If you feel uncomfortable being disturbed by them like this, just say something casually when chatting with the eldest prince Carlos later... Even if the eldest prince doesn't demote them all, he will definitely not give priority to any good things in the future. consider.

Just like if other minor nobles increase their workload, the minor nobles will be worse off than dead. Ian is the one who can decide their fate in this way.

"It turns out that my status has reached this point."

Ian shook his head slightly, because he had been a prophet for so many years and had never met other prophets, so he really didn't know how much a prophet weighed.

He didn't ask these Mirror Sea Guards to stand up, which would make these people worry: "Let's not talk about this for now, what questions should I be asked in the normal process?"

"I will ask you where you went when you were separated from the main force, and there is also some news related to the Lord of the Labyrinth."

Without any nonsense, Medley replied smoothly: "Don't tell me this. I am not qualified to know the news of this level. His Highness will come to visit you in person later. As for now... Sir, do you have any instructions? ?Alchemical potions, or food and wine, we will try our best to bring them to you."

"I do not……"

Ian took a sip of orange juice. He really didn't have any needs. But after a second thought, he changed his mind and said: "Give me a transnational communication device. I have something to contact my territory."

"As commanded."

The Mirror Sea Guards left smoothly. Three minutes later, a transnational communication device appeared in front of Ian.

Empire, Nanling.

Xiahui City.

Bioalchemy Laboratory.

Adlbert received a communication from an unknown address.

The white-haired Dead King researcher stared blankly at the communication device whose path "no one knows except Ian and him". He did not expect that Ian, who was theoretically exploring the ruins, would come to him at this time.

"...Is it Ian?"

Pressing the button to connect, Adlbert said cautiously: "What happened? Is there anything you need my help with?"

He knew very well that Ian would never use this number if it was not necessary.

【Is my heart still there? 】

Then, Researcher Dead Lord heard a rather rare question.

"...Yes, of course I am."

After hesitating for a moment, Adalbert became nervous after understanding what Ian really meant: "What's wrong, are you seriously injured?!"

[Well, the whole body is lost] A rather understated voice came from the other end of the communication device, but it almost made Adebert's eyesight black: [The 'backups' I saved before should be there, send me a copy. Follow the channel of Platinum and Iridium Workshop】

——What does it mean to lose all your body! Can you please make it clear?

Just because he knew that Ian would never lie in this regard, Adalbert knew that there was a high probability that Ian would not have a flesh and blood body at all, and the 'backup' he was talking about was that Ian had already prepared it, every week. An updated backup of 'totipotent cells' and 'body tissue'.

And Ian must have wanted these backups just to clone a body locally... What is this all about!

"Do you want to send your heart there?"

After taking several deep breaths, Adalbert suppressed his pounding heart and said in as calm a tone as possible: "I kept it very well, and I think it can be used now..."

[Well, send it over. I need a ‘fulcrum’ to recover and rebuild...]

The voice on the other side of the communication device laughed: [Thank you very much, Adlbert, I knew you would take good care of it... By the way, you can go to the virtual realm later]

[I will send you a database from a distance. After accepting it, go to the Steel Dragon's Nest, use the permissions I gave you to open the Dragon's Nest, and take out the fire in it]

[Then put it in the virtual realm]

【‘I’ will take it away】

I'm not feeling well, I'll take my time to recover...
