719: Chapter 4 Gradually Unfolding (First Update, 6000)_2 719: Chapter 4 Gradually Unfolding (First Update, 6000)_2 A squad’s supply of Elental Crystals was enough to last Ian’s Armor Suit until the end of the year.
And Ian’s original target had been the Leyan Territory, but now he also had a military mission, which ant an additional reward on top of his original goal.
As for the second point, it goes without saying that Ian never intended to leave any enemies alive; on this, his views were completely aligned with Marquis Barton.
No matter the reasons or hardships, anyone who impeded the managent of his territory had to die—it did no harm to be ruthless.
The third point likely referred to the large-scale offensive The Empire was planning against the Naling Western Frontier after the Flashfla Fortress Cluster declared its independence.
Prior to that, in order to better harass the South Ridge serving as the rear, the Fiery Fla Land would definitely urge the Dragon Group and the Mountain People to intensify their attacks.
Although the route from Solitary Fla Peak to Leyan Territory was not the only one, there would certainly be many rebel troops attacking the territory.
Put plainly, this ant as long as Ian played his role as a lord well, the Nineteenth Legion would have his back.
“It seems I need to settle the matters in Leyan Territory as soon as possible,”
thought Ian.
Being given such convenience by the other party was to see if this ‘genius’, aside from his research, had any competence in handling corresponding affairs.
That was pretty much it.
After the call ended, Ian rested for the night at the Governor’s Mansion.
Before resting, he made a call to Viscount Grant at Harrison Port and Elder Prude.
This ti, before returning from the Imperial Capital, Ian had not done nothing; he had already sent the corresponding gifts back to his hotown.
Viscount Grant received the ‘Ether Furnace Core repair sche’.
After returning from the South Sea Great Labyrinth, Ian could have repaired the damaged Ether Furnace Core of the Viscount Grant’s Aether Armant ‘Zhenglan’, returning the previously Third Energy Level device, which could only exert Second Energy Level strength, back to its peak.
But since he could not reveal what he had obtained in the Great Labyrinth, he had put it off.
Now that he had returned from the Imperial Capital and had designed his own Armor Suit, Ian felt it was ti to show more of his worth and help his forr superior stabilize the situation at Harrison Port.
As the core of South Ridge’s smuggling…
no, the external mariti trading route, Harrison Port was definitely a key target for the Fiery Fla Land, which might even conduct direct naval attacks.
To ensure the goods from his future territory could be sold, Ian had to plan ahead.
It must be said that this gift truly hit the spot for Viscount Grant—this Viscount who could possibly advance to the Third Energy Level in the next few years had a long-standing concern that even after reaching the Third Energy Level, he could not restore the Glory of his family.
After all, if an Aether Armant can’t be used to its full potential, being at the Third Energy Level doesn’t count for much among the Nobles with heritage.
But Ian could solve this problem!
As for Elder Prude, what Ian sent back was the Inheritance of ‘Silverpeak ssenger’s True Form’, with a newly redefined Magic Potion sequence and thod of refinent.
Besides the formula, the thod of refinent is vital for Magic Potions.
Given the many possibilities in processing different materials, these secrets are mostly passed down verbally.
Only the Grand Library of The Empire might have a detailed collection of these thods, which aren’t necessarily the best.
Yet Ian could rederive all of these from scratch.
Furthermore, by using this as a starting point, the White Folk Family once again gained the right to cultivate their own Sublimators.
However, even though he presented such generous gifts, Ian wasn’t doing it to ask reinforcents from his family.
Or rather, he didn’t plan to ask for that many troops.
[Scott has already set out with the requested White Folks squad (30 people) and should be nearing Nauman City by now.]
Viscount Grant was in a great mood, as his child would be born in a few months, and he was preparing wholeheartedly for it, paying little attention to other matters.
Indeed, the Viscount couldn’t fathom how Ian could be such a genius, being able to advance to the Second Energy Level at the age of sixteen…
but who cares?
Was he supposed to pressure Prude with his down mood and scold him for not telling him how well he trained Ian?
Why overthink having an extra genius among one’s people?
Ignorance is bliss.
Moreover, in the end, the fact proved that his decision was correct; he simply could not use Ian to his advantage.
Since that was the case, it was better to let go and see how far Ian could go—naturally, Viscount Grant hadn’t anticipated Ian’s teoric rise.
But on the flip side, the greater Ian’s achievents, the more significant the favor he owed.
Indeed, without discussing the thod of repairing the Ether Furnace Core Ian received from the Ellen Family, just the cooperation with the Harrison Port Alchemy Workshop he ntioned would be enough to elevate Harrison Port’s level of Alchemy to heights it should not reach.
—Once Ian becos an Alchemy Master, I can claim to have nurtured an Alchemy Master, and hide success rate is still one hundred percent!
Viscount Grant joyously decided to stop nurturing any more Alchemists and to end on a perfect note.
His situation, if known in the Imperial Capital’s Alchemy Field, would certainly infuriate many.
—Did you nurture him?!
With Ian’s foundation, I could do it too!
