Above The Sky (Yin Tianshen Yin) Chapter 38: Choice (thanks to the leader of Zuobojia coconut for the reward!)

The aroma of the mind-mind herbal medicine is fresh, but the more intense is the fresh aroma of fish.

Although many people highly recommend eating fish and seafood to eat the umami taste, it is a pity that Ian has a heavy taste, and he will not eat well without chili, and he does not like tomato dipping when eating French fries Sauce, more salt and pepper.

Not to mention fish, at least some steamed fish with soy sauce, right? Unfortunately neither.

This is what makes Ian quite dissatisfied in Terra Continent - the spices and various food sauces here are quite precious, and even refined salt is a luxury, and only coarse salt can be used for daily cooking.

"Eat? This is not urgent."

Walking into the house, Hilliard carefully observed the fish fillets on the plate. The orange-red fish is steaming hot, and the heat is well controlled. The oil in the fish is overflowing, and the fragrance is exuding, which attracts the appetite. There is also a small spoonful of salt beside the plate.

The price of salt in the interior of the empire is quite high, but it is limited to refined salt. In Harrison Port, there is no shortage of coarse salt. Not to mention the surrounding villages have salt farms, and there are also rock salt mines in the Bison Mountains. Can be mined.

"The craftsmanship is very good, very fragrant."

Feeling that I do have an appetite, Hilliard turned his head and praised: "And you are really lucky, you can actually find a primordial monster"

"No. Wait"

Looking at his disciple's blue eyes, the old knight suddenly thought about it, he changed his words, and said suddenly: "It's not luck, it's your spiritual power?"

Ian didn't answer, he smiled slightly, Hilliard didn't ask any more questions, just laughed, and turned to look at the fish steak: "It seems that even without me, you can live well, even quite Not bad!"

Since Ian is not like a normal child, he will respect Ian's secret when asked where he went in the afternoon.

Based on his own experience, through Ian's attitude towards himself, Hilliard discovered in advance that there were indigenous people in the house, and the characteristics of "picking out the first-born monsters that are difficult to be found in the fish pile" can inversely deduce that Ian En's spiritual ability has the characteristics of 'emotional grasp', 'perspective', 'high-precision observation' or 'source quality observation'.

All in all, it is an extremely rare compound observation type power.

This kind of spiritual power has no special direct combat power, but it has a great auxiliary effect on the growth of the awakened. It can be said that the higher the power level, the more useful the spiritual power.

If it weren't for this psionic ability, Hilliard would most likely not consider accepting Ian as his disciple.

Because he will leave eventually.

The disciple did not rely on his own potential to become stronger, so why did he take him into the dangerous world of sublimation and be implicated by his identity?

But if he didn't accept the other party as a disciple, he wouldn't be able to discover Ian's talent on the road to ascension.

"Your psychic power is really the ability to bring good luck."

With a sigh, and looking at the steaming fish steak, the old knight noticed Ian's smiling expression, but shook his head and said, "Eat more, these things are very useful for beginners like you , but it has no effect for me."

"It's just dinner, teacher, you will pay for the tuition." Ian insisted, and looking at the eyes of his students, Hilliard laughed dumbly: "Okay, I'll just eat a little and try your handicrafts .”

He was not pretentious, stepped forward, forked the fish, and bit off it.

At once, Hilliard's eyes lit up.

Ian handled the fish very well. He thought that there would be some spines and bone residues, but he didn't expect there to be nothing but tender and smooth fish, and the degree of grilling was quite appropriate. His tongue and palate were slightly pressed , the delicious gravy contained in the fat and fish fiber spreads to all the taste buds, and the fresh taste of the magic salmon has not been tasted for a long time.

Of course, according to his evaluation standard, the taste of this fish is strictly speaking a bit bland, but it is not enough for an eight-year-old child to compare the amount of seasoning with the palace chef.

"It's really hard to imagine." Hilliard couldn't help but wondered in his heart: "I am a student, apart from practicing, is it possible that I am also a natural chef? If I cultivate it well, it's just this pair of eyes that can identify good ingredients , you can be a super palace chef"

Taking another bite, he recalled some past memories and couldn't help sighing: "It's amazing."

When Hilliard turned his head again, what he saw was Ian's curious eyes.

"Teacher."

The boy asked: "What is the first birth of Warcraft?"

"Are there many types of monsters? This fish is so weak, can it be considered a monster?"

Ian is very interested in this kind of knowledge. After all, he is still young in this life, and he doesn't know much about many "common sense" that may be taken for granted on the Terra continent.

As it happens, my teacher seems to be well-informed, and apart from common sense, he may also know a lot of 'secrets'.

Of course, what is more important is that Ian wants to know the origin of what he ate.

"The primordial monster is an ordinary natural creature, which is transformed from a normal creature into a monster after being infected by the spiritual energy field, that is, the 'magic' and 'spiritual energy' in the ordinary population."

Putting down the fork, Hilliard thought for a few seconds, sorted out his words, and then slowly said: "The monsters that people usually talk about, the scientific name is the original monster, which inherits the genetic gene of the first-born monster. Blood vessels, and an optimized species that stabilizes benign blood vessels.”

"All the monsters on the continent of Terra are basically native monsters. A small number of first-born monsters continue to appear, and most of the weak ones become food, and some excellent first-born monsters, their descendants will increase the types of original monsters, enrich Bloodline complexity."

"But in addition, there is another kind of Warcraft that does not exist in this chain. They have existed since ancient times, as if they have no source and no derivative."

Having said so, Hilliard raised his hand, stared at his palm, and said calmly: "Its name is 'Ancient Life Beast', and it is also the most powerful and mysterious type among many monsters. "

At this point, the old knight noticed Ian's serious listening expression, and he couldn't help laughing: "These details are equivalent to giving you a Warcraft biology class. I will explain it to you in detail when I have time. .”

"As for now that you can eat monster meat, you can foresee the accumulation speed of your source matter, and the condensation of source matter must be faster than I imagined."

Nodding his head to tell Ian to sit upright, Hilliard said seriously: "Ian, the next question will determine your future path of practice."

He said seriously: "Which inheritance do you want to practice?"

"Which 'bloodline' or 'true form' to practice?"

"Huh?"

Hearing this, Ian, who was also in awe at first, was slightly taken aback. He was a little confused, and asked in confusion: "Isn't it like you, the teacher, who inherited the Fortified City and started to practice as a sand armor apprentice?" /

He still remembers the expression on Hilliard's face when he spoke about his inheritance in the morning.

The old knight looked like he was fifty years younger, obviously full of great pride and pride.

He thought that the other party would let him practice the same true form.

"That is the true form that suits me best, but it may not suit you."

Hilliard shook his head, and he said frankly: "Besides, the true form of the Immovable Fortified City series is certainly powerful, but the potion materials needed, and the rare parts of various monsters, are all very rare."

"Sand armor apprentices and rock-forged knights may still be able to rely on ordinary monster materials to transition. But once they reach the 'Lord of Stone' and 'Apostle of the Mountain', most of the materials needed are extremely powerful monsters. Organs and auxiliary materials are sublimation plants that are hard to come by.”

"As for the 'immovable strong city'" Speaking of this, Hilliard couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Its core main materials need three kinds of unbelievably powerful 'ancient monsters', or in other words, 'ancient dragons' ' material.”

"Gu Long's core, spinal cord colloid and phase neural network, even I was at the beginning"

At this point, the old knight paused and shook his head.

Hilliard said slowly: "Do you understand? Power also requires a price. Some bloodlines are true and can only be cultivated by powerful sublimators. You are my disciple, and you are more systematic than ordinary wild sublimators. , but in terms of resources, it will not be any better than the sublimated people in the countryside."

"I'm going out this afternoon, and by the way, I'm going to inspect the distribution of monsters around Harrison Port. I'm going to list some of the most suitable bloodline inheritances for you tonight. It's best to rely only on the materials of the surrounding monsters. Then you can advance to the second energy level."

"At that time, you were estimated to be in your twenties, and you were strong enough to protect yourself. You could travel freely throughout the continent, looking for higher-level materials, so I don't need to think about the future."

After speaking, Hilliard didn't say much, but Ian was very clear.

The old knight never imagined that his psychic power would be so convenient, and he could easily find monster meat as food. It can be seen that there will be many in the future, and the speed of cultivation may be much faster than he imagined.

In this way, the follow-up considerations will also need to be adjusted—after all, if it is Ian, he may really be able to find some materials that are difficult for ordinary people to obtain.

It's just that Hilliard can't be sure of this, and it can only be left to Ian's choice.

——It is to choose a promising future, but it is destined to be a difficult and rough road.

——It is still smooth and smooth, but the end is not necessarily a lofty road.

"Indeed, we must also consider the objective situation"

Frowning slightly, Ian whispered to himself.

He raised his head, looked at the old knight and said, "Then, teacher, besides the apprentice Shakai, what kind of inheritance can I choose now?"

It is not time to change flags.

He's just going to hear about other options.
