Chapter 165 Zhanhai Crystal Dragon (23)

"I have a baby, Pudd."

Viscount Grant smiled and told his old friend the good news: "It belongs to Clendelle."

"Ah"

Looking blankly at his smiling old friend, Pude subconsciously took another sip of wine, smacked his mouth, and said in disbelief: "I thought... you were serious?"

"I thought you were just playing around..." he muttered in a low voice.

"At first. I like them both. Maybe Lamar a little bit more, but Clendelle is nice too, she's a nice woman."

Viscount Grant didn't have any mood swings because of Pudd's words, because normal imperial nobles would be like this, and he is no exception. He is a real scum in terms of emotions.

It's just that he, who has always been childless, suddenly has an heir. This feeling...is indeed very strange.

It is wonderful enough to change a person.

"In recent years, Clendelle has been working hard to cultivate, and finally cultivated the bloodline of the first-level 'Abyssal Lizard Whale'... You understand the meaning, Pude, and I didn't invest any extra money in just four years. resources, she has completed the most basic practice. What she conceived is a real heir who can inherit the blood of the Grant family!"

Feeling so emotional, the Viscount shook his head and said, "It's just a little slower than Lamar. Their brothers and sisters... are indeed my best help."

"Of course." Thinking of something, the Viscount smiled and looked at Pudd: "It's incomparable to Ian."

"Ayers!" Pudd raised his voice a little: "Pay attention."

"Didn't you understand me after so many years? He's not red-haired, what are you worried about?" The Viscount didn't care. He lay on the sofa and said to himself with some yearning: "And how should I put it... Although it's a bit strange, but I do feel that I am completely different from what I used to be."

At this point, he paused for a while, and then changed the subject: "Pude, my father told me back then that you were the biggest help that could help me stabilize Port HarrisonI didn't believe it at the time, but now it proves the truth indeed so."

"Although Yam is loyal to me and is also my good friend, he is not capable enough. He can only complete the tasks I give him, and he has no ideas of his own... This is not bad, but it would be better if he was smarter."

"Lamar is very capable, but he is still too young, and he will be naive in some aspects... Now it is naturally not a bad thing, but he may make mistakes when he is alone."

"Only you..."

"Anthracene, master..." Elder Pude already knew what the Viscount wanted to say.

He understood why the other party wanted to keep him, so he shook his head with a smile and said, "That fellow Ian, I don't think your son can hold him down...I can't hold him down either, you might even know."

He already knew that the current Ayers has indeed changed: "You can see it? He...isn't like us."

The old man sighed softly, and praised from the bottom of his heart: "He is going to go outthe kind of person who can get glory by himself!"

"Yes, I can't hold it back... This is the first time I saw Mr. Gosai showing that kind of look to a young child... It's like staring at a rare treasure, wanting to touch it, but afraid that his old hands will dirty him .

Squinting his eyes, Viscount Grant whispered to himself: "Even Mr. Goser feels that he may not be able to grasp it, so what can I do?"

"But so what?"

Lifting his head, looking at the gradually gathering rain clouds outside the window, the Viscount narrowed his blue eyes.

He said slowly: "At that time, he will leave Port Harrison, right? But in any case, Port Harrison is his hometown... He can't give up here completely, and my child will be the lord here."

"In the past, I might not want to let go and eliminate those 'elements' that were out of control, but now I gradually understand... There must be some room."

"You have to save some," the man repeated.

Elder Purdue was silent for a while, and he sighed: "You have done a good job, two big storms..."

"Stop talking so much, Pudd."

The Viscount raised his hand, he knocked on the table, and said calmly: "Ian is the only genius I can cultivate here, and I will definitely not let go now... But the teacher is right, Harrison Port will only bury him, It doesn't do me any good either."

"If this time, he can successfully get credit among the Ellen family, I will use the relationship left by my father to go to the imperial capital to apply for an 'official knight' status for him."

"In addition to the official alchemist status that he will definitely have in the future, he will be able to walk around Terra in the future, and nobles should not be underestimated."

Being too shocked, the elder didn't know what to say for a while.

"It's time to say thank you." The Viscount reminded.

"Indeed, indeed... Ailes, thank you. I really trouble you."

Viscount Grant laughed, and he continued to lie comfortably on the sofa, looking at the dark clouds in the sky: "I don't actually have much ambition, I just want this port, which is named after my father, to be able to Carry on and grow bigger and more prosperous."

"I just want my father's name, and our family's name, to leave a mark on this worldand one day, I will leave my mark, such as building an 'Air' to guide merchant ships in the South China Sea. What do you think of the Lighthouse?"

"good idea."

Elder Pude took another sip of bee fungus wine: "But it's too expensive now, there are not enough merchant ships, and the native tide-rising spirit has not yet been resolved..."

"Just wait, when your child grows up, maybe it can be fixed."

So saying, he wanted to grab the wine bottle, but was snatched away by the viscount who had been staring at him: "I'll pour it for you!"

"No, how can I trouble the nobleman to pour wine for me, a commoner..."

"Shut up or don't drink. Sip slowly and learn how to drink high-grade bars!"

Platinum Iridium Workshop.

"...Do you really want to take that child with you? A Wavesinger, who has just cultivated for less than half a year, with such strength... At that time, I have to be distracted to protect him. Having Yisen is enough trouble."

A middle-aged man's voice sounded in the guest room, and an old voice responded calmly: "Of course. Patrick, I can't understand it at your level. An appraiser who can detect the structure of the second layer of inscriptions in the blue flame bracelet gold content."

In Master Gesai's room, a series of bottles and jars were placed on a long table. The old man was sitting on one side, using simple tools to analyze the blue flame bracelet in his hand, while Patrick stood behind the teacher, looking Some cloudy and uncertain.

"So what?" The man's tone seemed to be simply upset: "He just found out!"

"Why don't you say that he is only fourteen years old? Don't be angry with Ayers about this. He has indeed found a good material, but your Ellen family has no shortage of talents."

The old man did not stop the identification work in his hands, but he pondered for a while, and then continued: "If I was a little hesitant at the beginning, it was not because the child named Ian was not capable enough, but because he was too capable, I'm afraid we won't be able to protect him, and if something happens that cuts off his way, I will regret it immensely."

"Look at this." He raised the blue flame bracelet in his hand, and the light of the prosthetic eye illuminated the mithril gemstone jewelry for a moment: "I need to double-check to find the second layer of inscription hidden in the natural structure of the gemstone." Return, this is a masterpiece of the same level as minebut he can detect the slightest mistake with his instinctive sensitivity!"

"What a genius." Master Gosser said with emotion: "If I didn't have the energy to teach the second real apprentice, and this kind of solicitation is too disrespectful to Ayers, I really want to take him back to the imperial capital immediately. "

"Then what made you change your mind, teacher? Our task is not easy, aren't you afraid that he will have an accident?"

The middle-aged man's voice was suppressed, and the old man said frankly: "His keenness. Patrick, I know that you think that Boysen will be credited for the appearance of this child, and the other party is Ayers, so you can't poach a corner, so you are angry. "

"But he is really suitableno matter whether Ayers's life-extending magic plant is acting or not, the abnormality of the blue flame bracelet is absolutely impossible to detect by chance!"

Speaking of this, the old man's voice was full of deep anger: "Isengard is the child I have been most optimistic about for so many years. The internal competition in your Ellen family is too much... Pat, remember to talk to the Marquis later. Madame reports, you must strictly investigate, otherwise I will do it myself."

"Yes."

The blond man's voice was filled with reluctance, but the old man didn't take it seriously, because his former student was so awkward: "Okay, in the final analysis, Ian saved Yi Sen's life, so what if I share some credit with him? This is also something that needs to be risked to do well, without his keen sense of origin, we may not be able to find clues for several months."

"After all, our real purpose is to find high-ranking monsters that feed on the 'shimmering element crystal shell'."

"Identified as a high-level dragon species of 'Zhanhai Crystal Dragon'!"
