(No ti needed at all) Ian replied: (Summoning the Dragon Body can also create a massive shockwave, blowing away all surrounding attacks and enemies, and it can even be considered a defensive thod — this is a Dragon King secret technique, how could there be any flaws?)
Ian would never miss any opportunity to mislead and deceive the enemy, even if the thod is simple. Those who should fall for it definitely will.
"Where do I live?"
He looked around and noticed that the staff of the City of Knowledge had taken all the emissaries from different countries away, and had already disappeared. He couldn’t help but harbor so complaints about the service capabilities of the City of Knowledge: "Surely they don’t really think I’m a dragon, so they’ve set aside a piece of airspace for to fly or an island to build my nest, right?"
"Certainly not."
A familiar voice ca from the sky. The Master of the Molten Iron Spire, Romani, and the Dragon Instructor, Sikalei, ca together.
Romani was an acquaintance of Ian’s. He had once personally traveled to Xiahui Territory to attend the Holy Ground Foundation Ritual and had a pleasant conversation with Ian, discussing many cooperative and investnt matters. On the day the Demon Legion from Fiery Fla Land invaded, he was also present to help rebuild Xiahui City.
This was an old friend of Xiawei Territory. If Ian communicated with him in his own identity, they would surely have a pleasant conversation, but since this ti it was Mahdi, he just calmly looked at the other, waiting for him to continue where he left off.
"We have prepared a separate residence for the Chief Scholar’s guest, located on the other side of Welcoming Island. Please follow ."
"Lead the way, please."
Mahdi, Yisen Gard, and Romani took flight together, heading towards the other side of the small island shrouded in dense forest.
"The people who ca this ti don’t seem to be in a good mood."
Having just given everyone a lesson, Mahdi complained to Romani without any self-awareness: "If it weren’t for my tily arrival, who knows what kind of difficulties my friends would have faced—does the City of Knowledge always invite people like this?"
"There is another story behind it."
Romani smiled, not taking Mahdi’s words of dissatisfaction to heart, because he could hear that the real question the other wanted to ask was another: "The emissaries and spirit energy users invited this ti have all received funding from the City of Knowledge before, or have cooperation agreents as ’mutual helpers’."
"Most of them are researchers, or major nobles and lords with many spirit energy research institutes under them. They’re not professional diplomatic envoys, so of course, their tempers seem a bit volatile... But to be honest, the City of Knowledge isn’t too concerned about that."
Saying so, the Spire Master led the two to a white tower on the small island: "Because only with competition can the spark of wisdom be ignited. If there isn’t a sense of rivalry among researchers, the progress of technology would be slow."
"So projects are better suited for cooperation."
Mahdi shook his head and said: "Mutual benefit and collaboration from all sides is the way to healthy developnt."
"That is the aning of this eting." The Spire Master explained: "At this Spirit Energy Developnt Conference, each emissary cos with their research achievents to present to all — everyone shares their research, exchanges experiences with each other, questions, and perfects each other."
"After all, these are projects funded by the City of Knowledge, and the City of Knowledge has the right to require these researchers to communicate with each other."
"Semi-mandatory, huh." Mahdi slightly nodded, and then nodded again: "Well, in a place like Terra, maybe the City of Knowledge’s approach is the right one."
"Ideals and reality still need to follow objective rules."
Facing what should theoretically be the Third Energy Level, with only the Dragon Body being the Fourth Energy Level, of the Second Generation of the Immovable Firmant, Romani vaguely felt a familiar danger.
This danger ca from the opponent’s trump card. As soone with extrely rich combat experience and knowledge, Romani knew very well that Mahdi had the power to threaten his life.
As for the familiarity... It was because the danger Mahdi imposed on him felt exactly the sa as the danger Ian imposed on him at Silverpeak Domain back then.
They truly are fellow disciples.
He thought so, and then raised his hand to introduce to Mahdi and Yisen Gard: "Here is where you will reside during your stay in the City of Knowledge. Please feel free to use the shuttles, acceleration ejection facilities, and all available facilities inside. If you have any other needs, you can ring the bell to call a butler, and the City of Knowledge will fulfill all reasonable requests."
"By the way, there is a Fourth Security Level Alchemy Laboratory in the tower. Don’t worry about leaks; I can assure you with Logos. You can perform any experints you want there."
"If it were my junior disciple, he would definitely like it here."
Mahdi looked at the white tower, nodded slightly, and comnted: "Speaking of which, Ian also has cooperation with you guys, right? Why wasn’t he invited this ti?"
Yisen Gard, standing to the side, also showed a look of curiosity—even though it was indeed a bit amusing to see Ian inquire as to why he wasn’t invited when it involved others, he had long since honed the sa exquisite acting skills as Ian.
Feeling the curious gazes of the two, Romani explained: "Our collaboration with the Silver Peak Earl has only been less than half a year, and they just completed a defensive battle. Now is the critical ti for them to lead the reconstruction of their territory... Considering all that, we did not invite him."
