Chapter 450

"Rest assured, I won't let you suffer a loss."

As he spoke, the alchemy master took out a brain from somewhere and placed it in front of Li Ang.

"Inside here are some of my insights, which I believe will be very useful to you. It won't be too late to refuse after you've finished reading them."

Ize appeared very confident, as if he were certain that the young dragon across the table would agree to the deal after viewing the data inside the brain.

Looking at the brain that was still pulsing slightly in front of him, Li Ang couldn't help but size it up.

This was the first time he had seen such an evil information storage tool; or rather, Ize himself exuded an air of evil.

But since the other party had said so, he was prepared to see what kind of thing could make him so confident.

With this thought, Li Ang reached out and picked up the brain, then began to extract the information within.

【On the Strengths and Weaknesses of the Myriad Races of the Starry Sky】...

【Initial Understanding of Hundred-Phase Alchemy】...

There was quite a bit of information stored in the brain, but most of it was locked, which was clearly intentional on Ize's part.

Even so, this information could already be described as priceless.

After all, as a Sixth-Tier alchemy master, even the scraps leaking from Ize's fingers were enough to drive most alchemists crazy.

Unfortunately, Li Ang was not among them.

Having had the experience of creating the Star Shepherd race in the One World, his understanding of the alchemy of 【Life Creation】 had reached a higher level.

In his view, Ize's insights were on par with what he had realized himself; perhaps they would have the effect of drawing inferences, but they hadn't reached the point where he would exchange the 【Seven Kingdoms】 level of alchemy for them.

Of course, even if the alchemy Ize offered was worth more than 【Seven Kingdoms】, Li Ang wouldn't exchange it.

It concerned information from another world; at this sensitive time, he wouldn't reveal it casually.

Therefore, after viewing the contents, Li Ang put down the brain in his hand quite decisively and pushed it back to Ize.

Getting something for nothing is just so satisfying!

Seeing this, a flash of surprise crossed Ize's eyes; he hadn't expected that the insights he had carefully prepared would fail to move the young dragon in front of him.

With a slightly curious mind, he couldn't help but ask: "May I know the reason?"

"Family inheritance."

Li Ang naturally wouldn't tell the other party the real reason, so he continued to use the previous excuse to brush it off.

Hearing this, Ize sighed with some regret, then put away the brain and stood up.

This was the greatest sincerity he could offer; any more would not be worth it.

"If you change your mind, little one, you can contact me at any time," Ize said with a smile before leaving. "I should be staying on Morabis Star for a while longer."

After speaking, without waiting for Li Ang to respond, the alchemy master covered in tattoos had already vanished.

Seeing this, Li Ang's expression gradually became cold.

If he could, he would very much like to drive Ize out of Morabis Star; after all, there were quite a few problems with him.

Unfortunately, doing so would only alert the enemy, so Li Ang could only think about it in his heart.

'Just don't know what the result would be if we fought.'

Out of caution, he hadn't used 【Great Luo Cave Observation】 to spy on the other party just now; after all, who knew if that would attract the other party's attention.

As his connection with the main universe became closer, Li Ang felt more and more that his Fifth-Level strength was not safe enough.

The long-lost sense of urgency made him recall the days at Pioneer City No. 66, where he had also faced an extremely tense situation.

However, unlike then, he now barely had the qualifications to sit at the table.

But to be honest, Li Ang suspected that there was something wrong with the feng shui of Morabis Star; otherwise, why would trouble keep coming to his door one after another?

Of course, it could also be that he was the problem; after all, the 【Traveler】 talent looked like a trouble-magnet constitution.

I don't want that kind of thing!

Compared to himself being the problem, Li Ang preferred to believe that Morabis Star was the problem; after all, the former represented many uncontrollable major events.

Just like now, who knows what Ize is planning to do.

'Could this be the retribution for fish-bombing?'

Li Ang was somewhat tearful for a moment; he hadn't expected that not long after the happy fish-bombing days in the One World, he would be forced to face a high-end game, and one that might involve the entire Obsidian Star Sector.

'Otherwise...'

'Should I run?'

As this thought rose in his mind, he subconsciously looked at Sophia's location.

Right now, running away seemed to be the optimal choice; if he were willing to pay the price, it wouldn't be impossible to pack up the entire Morabis Star and take it with him.

And if he only wanted to take the Plant Union and run, it would be even simpler.

Thinking of this, Li Ang let out a light breath, silently made a certain determination in his heart, and got up to head to Sophia's room.

On the other side.

After leaving the Viceroy's Mansion, Ize returned to the base of 【Taiyi Miracle】.

Looking at the respectful alchemists in front of him, he shook his head slightly and said: "The deal failed. That alchemy is the Viceroy's family inheritance; don't think about targeting him in the future."

"Ah, this..."

Hearing this, the group of alchemists couldn't help but look at each other, not expecting that even the alchemy master couldn't take the other party down.

Ignoring what these low-level alchemists were thinking, Ize went straight back to his bedroom.

However, just as he pushed open the door, a voice rang out in the bedroom.

"How was it? Any discoveries?"

The speaker was a young man with gray-white hair, who was currently leaning lazily on the bed, toying with a can of Plant Union functional drink in his hand.

Ize wasn't surprised by the young man appearing in his bedroom; after all, it was he who helped the other party enter the Obsidian Star Sector.

Facing the inquiry, the alchemy master replied calmly: "No, that little dragon cub is indeed Fourth-Level as recorded in the intelligence; the anomalies on those guys outside should be caused by the elders behind him taking action."

"Do you really think so?" The young man sat up and looked at Ize with some curiosity. "I should have told you that I had seen him before, right?"

"On Colonial Star No. 9527, he was only Second-Level back then."

Hearing this, a flash of impatience appeared on Ize's face.

He looked at his frivolous companion and couldn't help but warn: "Centipede! Don't create extra trouble! That little dragon cub really has 【Aeon Logistics】 behind him!"

"Yes, yes, yes." Seeing that his behavior seemed to have annoyed the other party, Centipede raised his hands in a gesture of surrender. "Please don't take it to heart, Lord Manfred."

Unfortunately, his words had the opposite effect; Ize stared at him coldly and said in a tone devoid of any emotion: "I am Ize now; don't call me by that name in the future."

Hearing this, Centipede shrugged his shoulders and didn't say anything more.

However, perhaps considering that subsequent matters still required the cooperation of the person in front of him, Ize softened his attitude slightly: "This is a major matter; one cannot be too careful. The Federation alone is already hard enough to deal with; there's no need to provoke 【Aeon Logistics】."

"But I have looked at that little dragon cub with this pair of eyes, and there is indeed something strange about him."

As he spoke, he pointed to his pair of pitch-black eyeballs.

That's right, Ize not only had tattoos on his body, but even on extremely fragile parts like his eyes.

"But I didn't really see those anomalies you mentioned."

Centipede didn't take Ize's attitude just now to heart, so after hearing him mention the little dragon cub he had seen before, he became interested.

He first tilted his head in confusion and muttered to himself: "That shouldn't be... could I have seen it wrong?"

"You've been tinkering with bugs all the time; it's normal to make a mistake on a dragon-type creature."

Hearing Centipede's muttering, Ize said out of the blue.

Hearing this, Centipede scratched his cheek and said uncertainly: "Is... is that so?"

Seeing him like this, the alchemy master covered in tattoos looked at him with a hint of pity: "You'd better study the Zerg Queen less; look at what you've become now."

Hearing his research results being denied, Centipede immediately got anxious: "You have the nerve to talk about me, Manfred!"

"..."

As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the bedroom suddenly became stiff.

The two stared at each other, neither willing to back down first.

But in the end, it was Centipede who broke the silence; he pretended to be nonchalant and asked casually: "Where are you planning to tattoo him?"

Ize wasn't the type to not take a step down, so facing his companion's question, he shook his head slightly and said: "He's still too weak, and the remaining parts of my body have already been assigned targets; there's no empty space left for him."

"But if his elders appear here, then it's worth considering... provided his elders are exotic dragons like him; after all, I already have ordinary dragons."

Hearing this, Centipede subconsciously looked at Ize's left shoulder; if one observed carefully, one could find a hideous dragon drawn on that part.

As a partner, he naturally knew what the essence of Ize's ability was, so he nodded in agreement: "Fourth-Level is indeed not worthy of your status."

"Hehe..."

Facing Centipede's flattery, Ize gave two fake laughs, then looked at the starry sky.

Void Whale, Balrog Lord, Vampire Lord...

This day...

He had waited for too, too long.
