But……

Ian happens to have a lot of extras, and it is difficult to use the computing power of his own body!

"Those 'Ectoplasm Computing Units' in my soul!"

Ian in the form of Mahdi nodded slightly, with a stern look and the corners of his mouth raised slightly. His body was naturally a little cold when he smiled: "These extra computing power can only be connected to my combat mode.

It assists in optimizing combat skills during wartime, but if there is a critical moment and there is no time to assist in optimizing combat skills, it can assist my mental light body to fight!"

"However, my Heart Light Body has no combat power. I only have a 'Blood Hunter' summon sent by the insect swarm... Speaking of which, I can indeed study the skills of summons. If it is true,

If you can use extra computing power to summon the second me, the combat power will not only be doubled, but it will be increased by at least 50%!"

"Well done, Ethan, Anfa!"

Thinking of this, Ian laughed and reached out to hug his two friends - because Siou on the side said angrily, "What about me?", so Ian also hugged Siou.

However, Xiou's appearance at this time was very similar to Ian's original appearance. To be honest, the hug felt quite subtle for both Ian himself and other bystanders.

"..."

Anfa was fine. He didn't understand why Ian suddenly hugged him one by one with joy, but Isengard was a little dazed. The blond boy looked at Ian in the form of Mahdi, then at himself, and finally at

Look at Xio in Ian's form.

His brain was a little confused and shut down.

"Get used to it."

Anfa patted Isengard on the shoulder with a somewhat shaken expression: "Being with us real dragons... you will slowly get used to it."

Isengard murmured: "The real dragon... and Ian are really amazing."

In fact, it's not just Ian who's amazing.

"Wear armor."

The hand gently stroked the belt around his waist, and a slight "buzzing" sound of the virtual world shifted was heard. Countless armor parts emitting a mixed light of red and silver were unzipped from the belt, and they continued to rotate around Ian, and

During the circling process, high-speed splicing is performed to form a prototype of the armor.

It looked complicated, but in fact it only took a moment. In an instant, a set of silver-gray futuristic armor was equipped on Ian's body. Its surface had blood-colored lattice patterns like circuit boards, which flickered and moved with his breathing.

On the helmet with an overall sharp-angled style, two devil-like horns extend diagonally toward the rear, like communication antennas. The eyes are three rows of densely packed circular observation ports, flashing with scarlet blood.

But this is not the end.

[——The blood river armed connection is in progress, the soul resonance is unfolding, the source material structure is docked, and the full functional restrictions are lifted——]

At the heart of the armor, blood-colored crystals were shining, and on the inside of the armor, countless spiritual data lines like tree root tentacles were derived. After forming a buffer layer, they spread to the 'information bone' on Ian's neck. From the flesh and

The soul aspect is completely linked.

As everyone marveled, Ian, equipped with the Blood River Arms, floated silently in mid-air. Orange-red light spots lit up on the Blood River Arms' shoulder blades, middle spine, elbow joints, back of the legs and soles of the feet.

His body floated up.

"Now, I really can't recognize him at all."

At this moment, even Isengard had to admit that under the cover of this set of Dead River weapons that only Adlbert and Ian had jointly modified, the Mahdi-like temperament of Ian had undergone a qualitative change.

It is true that no one can tell what relationship he has with the young white lord who was quite fond of laughing.

"This is the effect we want."

The Dead River weapon moved as he pleased and took off his helmet. This heavy ether weapon was only something a monster like Ian with its own biological ether furnace could bear. The black-haired young man smiled and said: "Then I'll set off - everyone

, you must be careful, if it doesn’t work, evacuating immediately is the right choice.”

"And, Isengard."

Having said this, Ian looked at his friend. He was silent for a while, and then he said seriously: "If I die, Ethan, help me take care of Xia Hui Ling."

"There are locked notes in my Lord's Mansion, the password is 766718, which contains my governance philosophy, social vision, required technology and some key information... Elder Pude and Elan cannot support Xiahui Ling.

Others also need to grow, and before that, I need your help to support them, at least not to let everything disappear so quickly."

"What did you say!"

Isengard was a little confused at first, but he was soon shocked and subconsciously shouted loudly: "Are you a Tuogu?! Are you kidding me? If it's really that dangerous, don't go!"

"What's more, you can't die. You are a prophet. You can't see the danger of death and still pass it by!"

Ian just smiled.

Gritting his teeth, Isengard originally wanted to say something, but in fact, from the beginning of this exploration, he could vaguely sense the complicated thoughts in Ian's heart... From the beginning, Ian was 'knowing the danger, but...

I had to do it, and even the eldest prince Carlos could see this, so he would deliberately mention it.

And... it's useless to stop him. Obviously, there is something in the Alien Research Institute that Ian is worthy of risking his life to fight for, and even speaking about it will cause struggle and crisis.

My own strength is not enough to know the truth.

"I promise you."

Isengard lowered his head, clenched his fists, and said slowly: "But Ian, you have to know that without you, the massive investment and optimism that Xiahui Ling has received now, and even the policy deviation, would no longer be there...

Just like my great-grandfather's reforms, once you die, they will all disappear,"

"So, what I'm talking about is what if. As a prophet, this kind of creature always thinks about the worst results, the most pessimistic possibilities."

——Especially now that I am seeking my own death.

After seeing Isengard agree, Ian nodded slightly, and then he smiled confidently: "But don't worry."

"Death will not find me while I am prepared, Ethan."

But Ian didn't know that the really complicated thoughts in Isengard's heart were not actually this.

——You actually think that I need you to promise that I will take care of your territory and relatives after your death...

——Is it true that Ian still doesn’t trust me in the true sense?

A trace of unwillingness flashed in his heart, but soon he heard Ian's voice: "After this operation is over, I will tell you my real secret... If I die, I will let you know this level of

Secrets actually harm people."

"But if I live, I will have the confidence to fight with you against future dangers."

After speaking, the light spots on the Dead River weapon flashed, and a strong thrust took Ian away, heading towards the 'abyss' in the central area as quickly as possible.

The three of them stayed on the spot.

"...In fact, Ian is quite good at saying such cool lines." After a moment of silence, Xiou commented: "It seems that he really didn't lie. He must have read a lot of knight novels!"

"Where did he get the time?" Anfa was deep in thought: "He also reads alchemy and inscriptions, has a profound knowledge of mechanical engineering, and has even read many knightly novels... Doesn't Ian need time to study?

"

"More than that." Shaking his head, Isengard sighed after recovering: "He also read a lot of history books... But I do know that Ian doesn't need time to read, he even only needs to turn the pages of the book...

…”

After Ian left, the three of them could talk more freely about topics about him.

And the other side.

Bloody Courtyard, west edge.

City of Knowledge Exploration Team.

With only half of his body left, 'Elger' emerged from the void. He looked weak but expressionless.

What greeted him was another ‘Elger’.

The real Ergo.

"What's wrong, An, that Baron Yinfeng is so powerful?"

The black-haired young man who was originally holding a heavy book and reading it carefully came forward with concern, but the monster in the form of 'half Ergo' turned like a whirlpool and transformed into a petite black-haired girl.

.

The long hair that reaches her ankles is floating, and the long black skirt covers her body. The girl's big black eyes with gold pupils give people a dangerous "alien" feeling, but also give people a strange attraction, and the small and exquisite facial features make her

She is like an exquisite porcelain doll, with an inhuman beauty.

Even so, this girl's appearance is very similar to Ergo, but she is more feminine and cute.

If I have to say it, it’s like the relationship between Ian and Xiou’s latest prosthetic body.

【He is better than me】

The girl called "An" floated up and sat on Elger's shoulders, while other members of the City of Knowledge exploration team turned a blind eye, as if the girl did not exist at all.

[No, you shouldn’t say that]

The girl paused, and then continued: [His performance and technology are a generation ahead of mine. Ian should also be the spark of an ancient civilization...even more peculiar]

[The origin of his soul is extremely special. It obviously did not originate from the body, but it is 100% integrated with the body. I can't imagine what kind of fusion mode it is.]

"Is this so? It's really unimaginable. It looks safe and makes people subconsciously want to get close, but it is actually such a monster?"

The psionic scholar who almost never speaks in front of outsiders raised his eyebrows. He is actually a quite talkative person, but he does not usually communicate with unfamiliar people: "Is it more wonderful than our fusion mode?"
