Chapter 1138: Chapter 163 I Allow You to Hug Me with Ian’s Face (6000)_4

“Why can you use my face, but you don’t play this openly with others’ faces… Oh well, maybe this is just a way True Dragons express their enthusiasm.”

Ian, with a wry smile, commented on the interaction between Sio and Anfa, these two Dragon Blooded girls (at least in appearance), with ‘too cutting-edge, too avant-garde, is this really something Terra can allow now?’ But on second thought, it’s Terra after all; nothing is surprising, and it’s hardly worth a shock.

In fact, Ian originally planned to discuss with Anfa the matter regarding her ‘Bloodline Collapse.’ Jegarna may be just an ordinary passerby, but the information he shared shouldn’t be ignored. Anfa’s focus on the resurrection secrets of the Qing Steel Dragon is certainly related to her bloodline issue.

Nowadays, Ian can’t claim to know the Glimmer Cradle System and the True Dragons in-depth, but at least he’s exceptionally proficient. Anfa, as a friend and deep collaborator, her life safety is undoubtedly crucial. If due to bloodline collapse his friend and major supporter passed away accidentally, Ian would never forgive himself.

However, seeing Sio and Anfa joyously play and Anfa herself not seeming particularly worried, Ian felt he could wait until after the dinner gathering to ask—serious topics shouldn’t be discussed when everyone is happy; save them for after the fun, his emotional intelligence is certainly not low.

As for Anfa inviting Master Gossay and Yisen Gard over, Ian was very pleased—he indeed had matters to discuss with Master Gossay, and he also planned to reveal his identity as a Prophet to them.

Now that Ian has gradually found his footing within The Empire’s system, with backing and his own territory, some secrets no longer need to remain secrets.

Revealing them instead solidifies confidence among allies and serves as a deterrent against foes.

Besides that… Before the dinner gathering, Ian wanted to figure out one question.

In the Pioneer’s memories, the Silver Chip, known as the Rites of the Star Gods, is described as ‘the ultimate key for ascension’ and ‘the foundation of civilization uplift’… Ian can somewhat understand both, since both the meditation technique he created and the Source Quality Calculating Chip crafted by the Pioneer can enable an ordinary human to become a superhuman with extraordinary calculating ability and Spirit Energy resilience.

As long as one possesses a Silver Chip, personal transcendence and civilization uplift both hold the potential for success.

However, precisely because of this, Ian wanted to understand one thing.

“Was the Silver Chip initially inseparable from its host? The Pioneer’s agony stems from this; he couldn’t even transfer the Rites of the Star Gods to others.”

Sitting in his solo room, Ian specifically instructed Anfa and Sio, as well as Master Gravie, not to disturb him.

Closing the door, the youth sat alone at the desk, gazing at the rising and falling lava lamp before him, the golden-red glow reflecting in his watery blue eyes: “Yet the Pioneer eventually resolved this issue—in acquiring the Silver Chip, I successfully fused it and can directly ‘unload’ it.”

“How did he manage that? Have later Silver Chip holders made other improvements to the Silver Chip? Did Inega II do so as well?”

“I don’t know the Silver Chip’s original form, so naturally I can’t determine if the current Silver Chip is the entire Rites of the Star Gods or just a part… If it’s not the whole, then at the Exotic Species Research Institute, do some full ‘other components’ of the Silver Chip exist?”

As these thoughts flashed through his mind, Ian’s gaze gradually turned profound: “Of course, there’s another more important matter.”

“Perhaps… I should give it a try.”

“Try to see if I can really unload… the Silver Chip.”
