Above The Sky (Yin Tianshen Yin) Chapter 104: Big Trouble (3/10)
"Don't underestimate each other, Ian."
When the boy told Hilliard his thoughts, he saw his teacher shake his head slightly: "It's not that simple—even if it has nothing to do with me, as such a young psyker, you will inevitably be punished." The other party pays attention."
"Huh?"
Ian didn't quite understand it now, he frowned slightly, and thought: "But this kind of attention should be a good thing, he probably wants to investigate my usual life, to determine whether I am as Viscount Grant said Genius - he gets the facts straight."
"You think it's easy."
The old knight shook his head meaningfully: "You also know that the imperial government will collect all ordinary people who have the qualifications of sublimators and psykers, and let the local nobles or official organizations give them grace and give them Inheritance, and then control the holders of these powers in their own hands."
Having said that, Hilliard pointed out a fact: "Do you think, with your talent, you won't attract the attention of bigger people?"
"Do you think that if Viscount Grant is not your "teacher" in name, where will you be taken?"
Ian's eyes widened.
The old knight continued: "You will be taken to the Royal Academy of True Knowledge in the imperial capital to study psionic abilities...and also be studied. That is not a good thing, unless you are a real son of a noble, otherwise, absolutely It's not a good thing."
"Not only that, if you leave Port Harrison, the frontier of the empire, before you mature, you think you can hide the fact that you are a sand armor apprentice practitioner from those real powerful sublimators Is it?"
"Of course, these are small problems. Ian, with your ingenuity, I believe you can resolve any trouble you encounter."
Sighing, Hilliard straightened his back, and he said leisurely: "But what about Elan? Do you think they will let a ten-year-old child live with his younger brother?"
"Even if you can, is that the life you want?"
Ian narrowed his eyes.
"Ian... this inspector is a big trouble."
The old knight looked in the direction of Elan's room, and he whispered to himself: "It's not just ours."
"It is also a trouble for all Harrison Porters."
Ian nodded.
"Indeed." He raised his head and looked at the deserted street. The young man said softly, "It's a big trouble."
…
Recently, Harrison Port, which had been quiet for a long time, ushered in a storm.
The inspector of the empire, the royal knight Viggs Graal, who is often called "Liuyin", arrived in Harrison Port.
Some people say that this is the emissary of the imperial capital to investigate the progress of the reconstruction of Harrison Port, and the inspector who is responsible for determining the follow-up support.
Some people also say that this is a deep and dark political struggle, and what ordinary people see is only one ten-thousandth of the surface.
But no matter how everyone guessed and analyzed, after meeting with Viscount Grant, Governor of Harrison Port, the Flowing Sound Knight did get the right to move freely and inspect the prison with full power.
It sounds ordinary, but in fact, the process of patrol knights getting their own rights has never been smooth sailing. It is absolutely impossible for any nobleman to allow an outsider to check every trace of secrets in his territory at will. Even if the other party came with the emperor's will, they would never be able to make the other party act so comfortably.
But after a secret meeting, Viscount Grant agreed to all the requests of the patrolling knight, and even asked his confidant, the local sheriff and city defense officer, Knight Yam, to follow and assist him in his work.
Some people may think that this is also a kind of restriction on the opponent's actions by the Viscount Grant, but in fact, the Yam Knight only followed in name.
Watchers can move freely without any supervision.
This is big news, but for ordinary people, they don't understand or care about the struggle of the upper class, and the appearance of the Flowing Sound Knight did not affect their lives, so they were quickly forgotten.
But for those who have a better understanding of the structure of imperial officials and the ranks of sublimators, the existence of a patrol knight at the peak of the second energy level is itself a signal.
On the continent of Terra, there are five energy levels for sublimators, which originate from the allusion that the heavenly father built the ladder in seven steps.
The reason why sublimated people do not have a seventh energy level is because above the 'top seat' (MasterThrone) of the fifth energy level 'True Form' is the sixth ladder 'Zhenzhi' (Gnosis) that represents the gods. ), and the Seventh Ladder 'Truth' (Logos) representing the Creator.
That is not an insurmountable sacred seat for ordinary people.
The goal of the sublimated person is to reproduce the way of truth in his own body.
It's just that no one has done it yet—since Skyfall, no one has ever set foot in the sixth energy level representing the "Star Crown", and the peak person is only the fifth energy level holding the "Steel Authority" class.
The first energy level, in the current Terra continent, is called "Enlightenment".
At this level, one can already obtain privileges, join the army as an officer, and be regarded as a strong person for adventurous exploration.
In the sea is the captain, in the mountains is the king of beasts, they are the representatives of the 'Warrior' (Warrior), no matter what country it is, it will not prevent a sublimated person from becoming a citizen of his own country, unless the other party is notorious The generation, or is suspected of being a spy of another country.
The second energy level, 'Condensation', is the foundation of nobility.
Only when you reach the second energy level can you inherit the title and enjoy the privileges of nobility, and only at the second energy level can you be regarded as a "philosopher" and become an elite in various fields. All respect.
As for the third energy level 'Heart Light', it is actually very simple.
The powerhouses of the third energy level already have the power of the "Hero" (Hero) in ancient legends - they can lift boulders like hills, they can cut off the rushing Yangtze River, and they have awakened the soul of life Yes, with a radiant soul that can be seen by the naked eye of ordinary people.
They are the masters of fighting. Even if they die, their souls will not leave temporarily, and they will entrust their hearts and light bodies to continue fighting, and their blood can also be passed on to their offspring, and they can get inheritance that can be passed down. Title', is the real great knight, the commander in the army.
In some small countries, a strong person at this level is even called a national teacher, a sage, who is enough to secretly control the power of a country, even the king.
As for the inspector of the empire, the flowing sound knight Wiggs, is a peak of the second energy level, far away from the third energy level, and perhaps just a strong man of the simple ceremony of 'the royal family bestows potions'!
"He came here to make a contribution!"
City center, Viscount Mansion.
In the study, Viscount Grant was walking back and forth in his territory like a violent lion.
Yam Knight and Financial Officer Lamar stood aside, one looked at the report in his hand, and the other looked at the pocket watch in his hand, waiting for his master's next instruction.
At this moment, Viscount Grant spoke in a deep voice, with a sense of crisis: "The inspector knights are directly under the royal family, and they are the elite of the elite drawn from the legions of various places. Where can there be second-level ones? All of them They are all great knights of the third energy level!"
"Even if there are occasional ones that don't reach the third energy level, they are just put down and plated with gold—just like my father did at the beginning!"
