Chapter 555

Imosen and his daughter were captured from the Everglades to the mountain fortress by the alchemy militia. He claimed to be the hunting manager of Baron Thornton in the three eastern provinces. He also told victor the story of a newborn daughter who was misunderstood as a wizard. In order to protect her daughter, her mother was killed by her brother, and the wizard's husband repented and fled to the Everglades with his daughter.

Victor valued imosen's ability and was not interested in the authenticity of the story. It was not until bertina showed extraordinary luck that he decided to check the details of yimosen.

The abilities of imosen and bertina are very useful. Even if imosen lied to victor, he was not prepared to delve into it, but to try to make up for the loopholes. Three years ago, he found an excuse to let Baron Thornton take Baron Baron Baron Baron Baron Baron Baron Baron Baron Baron Baron Baron Baron Baron Baron Baron Baron Baron Baron Baron Baron Baron Baron Baron Baron Baron Baron Baron Baron Baron Baron Baron Baron Baron Baron Baron Baron Baron Baron Baron Baron Baron Baron Baron Baron.

At the moment, Victor asked the result coldly, and the old spy was stunned and said, "my Lord, it's done, but I don't know the specific inside story... You have to ask Badu or read his report."

Barol is not a knight. His heart rate change and breathing rhythm can not hide Victor's perception. It belongs to the normal range and is not deliberately concealed.

Victor was a little relieved. Barol was a smart man. The biggest problem of smart people was that they were curious and wanted to know everything. Imosen is now the hunting manager of Randall family. If Barol detects something strange through this matter, Victor can no longer let the old spy go out to work for the safety of imosen father and daughter.

"I'll see." Victor nodded and asked, "Randall has many spies sent by other forces. How much do you know?"

The old spy's slightly turbid eyes glowed and said, "I've locked 17 people. I believe as long as I keep an eye on these people, I can dig out the spies who sneaked into the family while I'm away."

Barol's greatest hobby is doing spy activities, including infiltration and reverse osmosis. As for his level, Victor expressed pessimism that he was still far from the spy trained by the great Lord. But Barol insisted that his spy skills came from the RAND royal family, because his former master was a subordinate count of the Neo West family.

Victor doesn't care if Barol can beat the spies of other forces. This is a small problem in itself. It's like ants in the kitchen. If they all trample to death, they will come again.

"I don't care which force the spy comes from. As long as I abide by the rules of Randall, they are all my people... Their descendants may become outstanding craftsmen or soldiers." Victor smiled and said, "keep an eye on them and try to find out the family they are loyal to, but don't touch them easily... I believe it will be used in the future."

"As you wish, my Lord."

After chatting a few more words, Victor sent Barol back to work and asked Renault to get the intelligence scroll made up by the alchemy militia ba.

After reading the torture record about the hunting manager of the Thornton family, Victor put down the scroll and raised a funny smile around his mouth... Imoson really didn't tell the truth!

"Renault, get ready for the fast bird mount and go to the den with me."

****************************

The den is the place where the Lord raises and domesticates beasts, which is under the jurisdiction of the family's hunting manager. The Randall family has two animal dens. One is dedicated to raising fierce animals such as bears, wolves, tigers and leopards, and the other is the research site where imosen wizard cultivates fast birds, war dogs, blue eyed eagles, forest falcons, camel antelopes and war horses. Therefore, its location is very hidden. It is built in the depth of skylark mountain in the west of the territory, 77 kilometers away from Pinghu Town, and there is no road to connect.

Victor took Renault and shack, two alchemical militia, riding on the fast bird, and arrived at imosen's hidden den in more than two hours.

Two black and blue fur alchemical mastiffs took the lead in drilling out of the hiding place and welcomed their master with a wagging head and tail. The three fast bird mounts blew their hair, issued a warning sound of cooing and cooing in their throat, assumed a fighting posture, and refused to take a half step forward.

Pacify the fast bird and order the war mastiff to continue to guard. Victor three people passed through the wooded valley and heard the barking of the guard dog. The alchemy militia guard of the den saw the visitor clearly, drank the bluff guard dog, bowed to victor and said, "good day, sir."

Victor jumped off the fast bird, handed the reins to a guard and asked, "what's imosen doing?"

"The hunting manager is doing an experiment in the fast bird breeding area. Do you want me to call him?"

"Don't bother him. I'll just go there myself." Said Victor excitedly. He would like to see the process of the wizard's experiment.

There is no defensive fence in the whole den, and the houses and buildings are very simple. Forty alchemists act as imosen's assistants. There are eight alchemical war mastiffs on the periphery. In case of an emergency, the alchemist militia will cover imosen's rapid evacuation from any direction to the mountain fortress.

Imosen is the most precious asset here.

The alchemy militia guard led Victor into an open-air hut. Imosen was chanting to a female fast bird: "baby, come on, be sure to give birth to the egg completely... Note that it's a complete egg, not an eggshell."

The fast bird lying in the grass nest is obviously another creature. Its feathers on its back and wings fall off completely, revealing horny black skin; The middle part of the wing produces a cluster of white bone spines, which tends to evolve towards sharp claws; The beautiful tail feather is replaced by a hairless tail, which looks like a snake tail with a hook at the end; The huge beak like an axe is full of small teeth, and a pair of eyes are filled with blood red, which looks ferocious and bloodthirsty.

"Alienated creatures?"

Victor suddenly uttered a voice, and the engrossed imosen was startled. Then his face changed greatly and exclaimed, "kill it!"

The nearby Alchemist's sword fell, and the refined iron machete pulled out a sharp arc. The head of the alienated fast bird suddenly fell, and the red blood gushed out. Victor's mind moved, the air flowed rapidly to form a barrier, and the splashed blood flew to the side like a blood rainbow. Yimosen ignored his surprise and said, "come on, come on, come on, take out the eggs."

The alchemical militia overturned the body of the alienated fast bird, cut open its stomach with a sharp refined iron machete, put his hand in deerskin gloves into the still crawling abdominal cavity and took out two huge eggs.

The egg surface of alienated fast bird is stained with mucus, which corrodes colorful patterns on the eggshell. Without imosen's greeting, the alchemist militia consciously and quickly scrapes off the mucus on the eggshell surface with a dagger, and then wipes it with a towel stained with water until the eggshell no longer has a pungent white fog.

Obviously, this is not the first time he has done so.

Imosen stretched out his finger and gently poked the eggshell. He said with lingering fear: "fortunately, the eggshell is not soft yet. The problem should not be big... Cox, take these two eggs to the No. 4 incubation nest. Be careful, don't break them!"

The alchemical militia took the alienated fast bird's egg into a container, held it and turned away from the shed.

At this time, Renault drank at Victor's side and asked, "hunting manager, why can't you be polite when you see your master?"

Imosen's excited expression stiffened on his face. He turned to see Victor's dark golden eyes, which turned into fear. As soon as his knees bent, he had to kneel.

"Don't be polite at work."

Victor put his hand on his arm and asked with a smile, "Emerson, what are you... Doing?"

The flattered imosen became elated again, pulled off the towel covering his mouth and nose, opened his mouth and wanted to introduce his research, but he didn't know where to start, and finally choked out a word.

"... lay eggs."

I didn't know you were laying eggs until I saw it. I thought you were a pig butcher... Victor said something in his heart and looked at the wizard up and down again.

He was wearing a fine linen shirt, an oil canvas apron, a hood and a towel on his face. If he carried a pig knife in his hand, he would be no different from Randall's butcher.

Considering that imosen is engaged in taboo research and can't talk to others, the alchemists around him are more and more dull. It's normal for him to hold his stomach, but he can't figure out a clue for a moment. Victor thought for a moment and asked, "what's the purpose of laying eggs?"

As soon as Emerson's eyes brightened, he gushed: "Sir, I'm trying to improve the muscle and bone strength of the fast bird... In the past, I used to cultivate stronger and more fierce fast birds through breeding, feeding and training. But this can't change the bone and muscle structure of the fast bird, especially the hollow bone, which seriously limits the weight-bearing ability and fighting ability of the fast bird. I think the fast bird doesn't need to fly at all, and the thin hollow bone is reduced Weight has no practical significance to it. It's better to let them grow hard bones. Therefore, I selected 15 female birds, slightly alienated them, changed their body structure, and then tried to hatch fast birds with hard bones with their eggs. "

Victor asked curiously, "doesn't it mean that alienated creatures can't bear?"

"That's right!" Imosen said excitedly: "alienated creatures will absorb the fetus as a part of the body. I have done experiments with pregnant wolves and guard dogs, but they can't succeed. But the chicks of fast birds are bred in vitro, and their appearance is protected by an eggshell."

"Although the alienated fast bird's body also secretes mucus and melts the egg shell, the first six alienated fast birds all failed, but I can control the alienated fast bird and order them to lay their eggs. In this process, the alienated fast bird can suppress the instinct of absorbing birds' eggs and no longer produce a large amount of mucus..."

Imosen paused and shook his head with regret: "Unfortunately, the body structure of the alienated fast bird has changed, and there is no way to lay eggs at all... We can only kill the female bird and take out the eggs manually. Even if the alienated female bird dies, their flesh and blood are still alive and will still absorb the eggs. Due to our lack of experience, many birds' eggs have been melted and only five not perfect fast bird eggs have been obtained."

"I'm not sure if these eggs can hatch new chicks... I think naturally laid eggs are more likely to hatch successfully."

"That fast bird has the least alienation just now. I hope to lay eggs by myself. When I control it, I was... Something went wrong, so I can only take eggs manually..." imosen said angrily. He can control alienated creatures, but he can't accurately control the alienation process. If he wants to get an alienated fast bird with only birth canal, he doesn't know when to wait.

Victor didn't feel guilty about destroying imosen's important experiment at all. Another question hovered in his mind. After pondering for a moment, he said: "the alienated fast bird has changed the strength of the bone, and its eggs before alienation will also change accordingly?"

Imosen nodded in his heart, rubbed his hands, smiled and said, "Sir, I'm not sure... This is an attempt. If you succeed, you can get stronger fast birds and birds."

"I don't blame you for sacrificing 15 adult female birds... It's a good thing to devote yourself to studying the breeding technology of fast birds." Victor smiled and asked, "why didn't you combine your witchcraft talent to cultivate fast birds?"

Imosen smiled awkwardly and explained, "my Lord, I didn't dare before. Now I'm bolder and want your favor."

"Because now I am the royal highness of the Kingdom and have the ability to protect you?"

Imosen's expression changed. After a while, he said frankly: "Yes, I used to be afraid of being caught and purified by the church. I didn't even dare to go to church. I was afraid of showing my flaws. I had to go to church to participate in morning and evening prayers. As a result, nothing happened. Father Miller praised my piety... Now I'm afraid your highness dislikes me for being useless, so I have the courage to test my witchcraft."

After hearing the wizard's statement, Victor shook his head and said, "these are appearances, not reasons. You used to live in a wild swamp with bell, naked, hungry, and busy with food and clothing all day. Now, you live in dignity and do not have to worry about survival. You inevitably want to study your extraordinary ability."

"In short, you are curious about your leisure." Victor stared at Emerson with keen eyes and asked with interest, "so, what is the principle of dissimilating creatures?"

Emerson's heart tightened, felt the irresistible dignity, and respectfully said, "my Lord, through this period of research and experiment, I found that I always change the soul state of animals before they alienate and completely obey my will."

"How do you change the souls of animals? What do you change them into?" Asked victor in a deep voice.

Imosen thought carefully and hesitated to explain: "I can't tell how to change... This is the talent of witchcraft. It's close to instinct. If I have to describe it, it should be 'infection'... Yes, it's infection!" He nodded hard, raised his voice and said: "In my eyes, the souls of almost all animals are red, just like a hot flame. However, the brightness and color of soul flame are different for different animals, some are dim, some are bright, some are orange, and some are crimson... For all creatures alienated by me, their soul flame becomes the same brightness and color... I doubt that it is my spirit The brightness and color of the soul flame. "

"... but." Imosen kept silent and secretly glanced at the alchemist militia around victor.

Victor was secretly funny. Imosen always mistakenly thought that there was a powerful wizard around him. The alchemical war mastiff and alchemical humans were the masterpieces of the wizard. Therefore, he was afraid that he would also be controlled by the mysterious wizard.

"Step back and go away." Victor waved back the alchemy militia around him and said faintly, "you can say it."

Imosen lowered his voice and said a little nervously: "Your Highness, I also found that your ferocious wolves are completely different from ordinary creatures. Their soul flame is dark gold. I was hurt because I peeped at their soul flame... I have to remind you that I can control alienated creatures because of soul infection. I'm afraid your ferocious wolves are similar to my alienated creatures... They are controlled by people."

Nonsense, what's the use of making uncontrolled alchemy creatures? However, the principle of imosen's soul fire infection, controlling the division of alienated creatures and my soul fire, and controlling the alchemy tower is the same... This also confirms some conjectures of the ancestor gods to split souls and create blood descendants, such as the binding force of Hydra lizard on lizard people... Imosen's alienation witchcraft The principle of soul infection seems to indicate that the soul form changes and the blood law is fully activated, showing a chaotic mutation and evolving into another life form... Does this mean that the difference between aliens such as barbarians and humans lies in the difference of soul structure? The wizard of tofferwen found the primordial and diversity of human blood law, so why can humans keep human beings Is it because of the stability of the soul? If the human soul changes, will human beings become creatures in other forms? Elves, barbarians, or barbarians are all changed by human beings?

What has changed the structure of human soul without chaotic mutation in human blood?

Victor restrained his thoughts, focused on imosen's face, smiled and said kindly:

"Kux, Renault and shack are secret warriors carefully trained by the family. You don't have to worry about their loyalty, let alone their own safety... As long as you are loyal to me, I will give you wealth, status, power, and even longer life and youth."

Imosen quickly half knelt on the ground and said loudly, "Your Highness Randall, I appreciate your protection and reception. I swear to be loyal to you!"

With an elegant smile on his mouth, Victor said faintly, "should I believe you? Baron Thornton's... Makolin."

Imosen heard makolin's name, his knees softened, and the whole person knelt on the ground.
