Chapter 32: The Finished Product of the Dragon Sleep Project?
Although the sudden appearance of a monster attacking Zhao Qianyu did not happen, the possible danger still made him cheer up, and the cold freezing air wrapped around his hands, ready to freeze the enemy that might suddenly appear.
He slowly picked the paper off the table and put it into the ring—maybe he couldn't read the ancient characters, but Gangorgon should—frowned slightly.
His goal is to find the corpse of the dragon, or simply find an aging dragon, let Zhang Xinyuan bathe in dragon blood, and absorb the blood of the superior to solve the problem of bloodline and power conflict.
Although the truth of this place is not yet known, there is no doubt that this is anything but a dragon tomb.
It is the research field of the ancients.
"How capable are these ancients?" Zhao Qianyu looked at the only dragon statue that he had seen so far, which might be related to dragons, and its head that was raised to the sky with angry eyes, "This shouldn't be the place for them to study dragons......
I don't know why, but in the eyes of the dragon, he faintly seemed to see a light purple light.
He rubbed his eyes and looked at the statue's eyes again, trying to determine if it was his own momentary dazzle.
Then the dragon emitted a breathtaking purple light.
Zhao Qianyu only felt that his consciousness was in a trance for a moment, and then all directions suddenly fell into darkness.
He calmed down, pondered if he had entered another dimension, and then began to move forward, trying to find a way through the darkness.
He still remembered what had happened vividly: he put the books away, looked at the dragon statue for a moment, and then ...... And then there is no more......
He guessed that he had been brought into this strange dark and chaotic space by some kind of force, but he didn't sense a force strong enough to pull him into another dimension.
After the initial panic, he had calmed down at the moment - if the opponent's strength was already strong enough or even beyond his ability to perceive, then what would be the impact of whether he panicked or not?
He had been in the darkness for a long time, but he had not felt the slightest loss of physical strength, which indicated that this was most likely not the physical world, but only the dream world, or the space of consciousness.
And if it's a dream...... Zhao Qianyu suddenly felt a little like laughing, he casually waved his hand and wanted a bottle of cider, but he didn't get anything, which couldn't help but make him feel a little regretful.
But he sat down directly in place, quietly watching the darkness in front of him.
Can't get out anyway, can you?
He believed that some being who had pulled himself into this dark space had some purpose, perhaps to get himself to help him do something, or perhaps to tell himself something, and for those reasons, he would eventually show up and meet him.
Perhaps, at this moment, the other party is quietly observing himself somewhere.
And the only thing Zhao Qianyu is worried about now is the passage of time.
I hope that this world is like the nonsense of knight novels, and the speed of time is different from that of the outside world.
Otherwise, in case of a delay......
Thinking of Zhang Xinyuan's situation, he suddenly felt a little anxious, and wanted to get up and shout something, but suddenly saw an illusory glimmer of light appear in the darkness in front of him.
The light gradually condensed, slowly approached, and finally turned into a middle-aged man wearing a black and gold robe embroidered with stars, with a majestic and calm temperament.
"Dare to ask who you are?" Without the slightest fear, Zhao Qianyu asked with a calm face.
The middle-aged man waved his hand, and countless colors and lines appeared in the dark space, and these color lines combined into various things in an instant-
Zhao Qianyu found himself and the middle-aged man standing in mid-air, the delicate and luxurious round table and chairs standing in the air, the round table was full of snacks and tea, and under their feet was a magnificent city.
The city has countless gorgeous white buildings, countless tall towers, and hundreds of temples, floating crystals are dotted all over the city, and the abundant colorful light flows between the various buildings, dotting the whole city like a legendary kingdom of gods, and a huge translucent shield with countless runes floating in the sky above the city can be faintly seen.
Zhao Qianyu can guarantee that even if the capital area of the Charr Empire and the Tianluo Empire combined, I am afraid that it will not be comparable to half of the area occupied by this city, as for the magnificence and possible strategic role...... I'm afraid it's even more judgmental.
"That's our capital. The middle-aged man stretched out his hand and pointed to the city at his feet, his tone full of pride and a hint of regret, "But it is about to be destroyed, and our country will also be destroyed." ”
"What?" Zhao Qianyu looked at the city under his feet again, observing its terrifying defense towers, impregnable shields, and magnificent and gorgeous temples, in his opinion, this was almost an impenetrable city that would never fall, how could it be destroyed so lightly?
At the same time, Zhao Qianyu quietly reached out and gently touched the table beside him, which was a real cold touch.
He had reason to believe that the refreshments on the table would taste good when he ate them.
The world is all too real.
What kind of strength is this guy in front of him?
"Yes, because the end is coming. The middle-aged man's voice was extremely low, I don't know if he noticed Zhao Qianyu's small movements, he made a gesture of "please" to Zhao Qianyu, and said with a kind smile, "Sit down, please take care of the refreshments, rest assured, now that we are in the consciousness space, you will not be fat anymore." ”
Zhao Qianyu was silent for a few seconds, considering that the other party was the owner of this piece of consciousness, how could he not bow his head under the eaves, and the big husband could bend and endure for a while, and calmly took a step back from the sea and the sky, after all, he couldn't hold back the twitching corners of his mouth and did not scold.
The middle-aged man's expression was quite funny, as if he was just telling a joke that was not a big deal, and it was his funny joke expression that successfully blocked Zhao Qianyu's mouth.
However, the next moment, his face became extremely serious, "I'm sorry, I wanted to tell a joke to liven up the atmosphere a little." Please allow me to introduce myself, I am the vice-president of the Royal Academy of the Ulysis Empire, the contemporary patriarch of the Wilsund family, the first-class intellectual demon retainer, and the Grand Duke of Soul Suppression, Carl Alan Wilsende, as the head of the "Dragon Sleep Project", welcome the younger generations of demon resisters to the "Dragon Sleep Place". ”
This series of titles made Zhao Qianyu a little confused, but before he could speak, Carl Allen spoke again: "Since you have come here, then you must be a human being, and this world must have successfully survived the apocalypse, so it seems that our efforts have not been in vain!"
"Child, please tell me, who are you?Empire?Survivor?Is there anyone else in this world who has survived besides you?What is going on in the outside world?What is going on with our Empire?!"
Zhao Qianyu was silent for a moment before answering, "I once heard that this world has experienced an apocalypse, but that apocalypse has already ...... now" He secretly observed Carl Allen's face and continued, "Nearly ten thousand years have passed. ”
Carl Allen fell into the same silence before responding after a long, long time, "Ah...... It's been 10,000 years...... Empire is probably a thing of the past...... You ......," his eyes were full of anticipation, "how is it now?"
"It's hard to ......say," Zhao Qianyu continued to say while observing Carl Allen's face, "Now the continent is divided into two empires and thirteen principalities, as well as an empire of the undead, before I came...... The Empire of the Undead has just declared war on the Duchy of the Continent......"
He suddenly felt that he couldn't speak, but he didn't want Carl Allen to suddenly stand up and pace back and forth excitedly, "Great, great! It can form seventeen countries! It has survived so much! It has survived so much!"
Zhao Qianyu was frightened by his reaction, which was enough for the ancestor who didn't know how many times his ancestors stood up, and he also stood up, "That...... I know the fall of your home country is a big blow to you, but ......"
Carl Allen looked at Zhao Qianyu, who wanted to comfort him, and laughed, "The empire can continue, we have never had this kind of extravagance, all we want is that the human race can continue to continue, which is much better than the highest situation we expected!"
Zhao Qianyu looked at the excited middle-aged man in front of him, and couldn't help but ask his biggest curiosity, "What is this place, and what is the purpose of its existence......?" Your efforts...... What the hell is it?"
Carl Allen put away his smile, and his expression became extremely serious again: "From my own memory, this world is about to end.
Unfortunately, all the scholars of the empire have no way of knowing when and why the end will come.
But it will come eventually.
The Dragon Sleep Project is an attempt to completely change the nature of human life, by transforming into a dragonborn or a true dragon to fight the end or adapt to the end of the world, and here, the place of the dragon's sleep, is the experimental base of this plan.
Unfortunately, we failed.
The five half-blooded drakescents fell into complete madness the moment they opened their eyes, and it took us three lives to eliminate them.
We have chosen to take responsibility for our own failures, as the Peerless Dimensional Demon Protector Galvey has burned his life to construct a space lock, and those artificial embryos will be destroyed.
We've taken most of the material with us, but some of the material and the research on dragons have been copied and left behind, and if possible, we hope you can grant our wish to create dragons of our own right.
Even if you don't, you can learn about dragons and find a way to defeat them.
If the end comes again, it can also serve as a shelter for the end times.
Even when darkness comes, there is still fluorescence.
When the world descends into darkness and despair, we are the stars that bring hope. ”
After Carl Allen finished speaking, he stretched out his hand to Zhao Qianyu.
Zhao Qianyu held Carl Allen's hand, but saw that the middle-aged man's figure began to gradually dissipate.
"It's almost time," Carl Allen said with a relieved look on his face, "and I'll finally be able to get some rest." ”
Zhao Qianyu's pupils shrank, he knew that Carl Allen was about to disappear, and similarly, he quickly realized that with his own level, there was no way to save the legendary scholar in front of him with countless ancient knowledge, but he still held on to the last glimmer of hope: "Is there any way to save your soul?"
Carl Allen looked at Zhao Qianyu and smiled softly: "I'm just a small fragment of a broken soul, just to explain something to future generations, how can you save me?"
"Now that I know that this world has survived, and my last obsession is satisfied, then it is time for me to disappear. ”
"The world belongs to you young people. ”
Zhao Qianyu looked at this "old-timer", ready to see him leave, but he didn't want Carl Allen to say at the end, "When I disappear, you will be sent back to the real world, these refreshments...... But it was for the royal family at that time. ”
Zhao Qianyu turned around in an instant and grabbed a handful of cakes, "Then you didn't say it earlier!"
The moment he put the cake in his mouth and just started chewing, everything dissipated.
He was still in the huge room, but now he sat leaning against the crystal table.
He stood up, bowed deeply to the dragon statue, and then almost subconsciously drew a few runes on the crystal desk, and then the statue's chest suddenly opened, and a terrifying force and might suddenly swept through the room.
It was a heart-shaped thing that glowed with a faint purple light, and it was placed in the heart of the dragon statue, and Zhao Qianyu walked over and reached out to take it off.
Suddenly, the purple light skyrocketed, obscuring the original blue glow of the entire room.
He thought about it, looked at the dragon statue, and suddenly thought of a possibility, and his brows trembled and provoked.
He remembered that the dragon descendant named "Zhang Xinyuan" was said to have suddenly appeared in his village one day, and was later taken in by the "Zhang" family.
He remembered that Zhang Xinyuan had never seen her biological dragon parents again since she was a child.
He remembered that the reason why Zhang Xinyuan had left the village was to find any clues about the dragon that might exist other than herself.
He thought of many, many things, and looked at the statue of the dragon the most, and said softly:
"Perhaps...... You didn't fail......"
"At least...... You've got a ...... of success."
He bowed to the statue again, then tore open the teleportation scroll that Gondolgon had prepared for himself in the Tower of Arcanes, and a moment later, he returned to the tower.
Ignoring Gondolgon's nagging, Zhao Qianyu took out the heart, and at the same time took out all the income from the trip from the storage ring, "This magic dragon heart should be enough, hurry up and treat her, and help me translate these things by the way." ”
"Oh my God, this is the Dragon's Heart!" the papers rose into the air, and Gondolgon's shocked voice could be heard in midair, "And so many magic cores, so many Mithril, so much pure gold, not a loss of dragon's tomb ......"
"No...... It's not a dragon tomb...... Never mind...... I'll calm down the organizational language, you can treat it first......"
Under the illumination of the heart of the demon dragon, Zhang Xinyuan's whole person was reflected in transparent purple, and the beating of his heart, blood vessels and blood flow were clearly visible.
The light gradually dimmed, and the dragon heart began to intersect with Zhang Xinyuan, the light faded, and the whole heart became transparent, slowly imprinting into her body.
It's all slow and sacred.
In this process, Zhao Qianyu had already explained the situation of the trip to Gangdolgon, and even the well-informed Ta Ling had to be silent for a long time, and finally said slowly, "This is really a gorgeous adventure......
Everything in front of him gradually returned to nature, but the woman in front of him still hadn't woken up, Zhao Qianyu frowned slightly, and Gang Dolgun explained, "It will take a considerable amount of time for this kind of bloodline to be fused and rebuilt, just wait quietly." ”
Zhao Qianyu pulled a chair and sat down beside her, "You go and concentrate on translating documents, I'll watch her." ”
Gangorgon answered, he gently touched Zhang Xinyuan's body, and found that her body temperature was not as hot as before, he touched her pulse again, and it seemed to have stabilized a lot, and he put his head on her chest to listen, her breathing was quite smooth.
He didn't know when Zhang Xinyuan would wake up.
But he knew she would wake up.
She had to wake up.
Twenty-four hours.
Forty-eight hours.
Seventy-two hours.
Ninety-six hours.
Zhao Qianyu hadn't slept for nearly two hundred hours, and although the Demon Protector no longer needed a restful sleep like ordinary people after stepping into the legend, but now, he still had sunken eye sockets and was tired.
Zhang Xinyuan still hasn't woken up.
Zhao Qianyu looked at her peaceful sleeping face and whispered to her, "Hey, I will always be by your side." “
"So you, don't try to get rid of me easily. ”
"When you wake up, I'll have to get a good night's sleep. ”
Zhao Qianyu said to her and to himself.
"Now I'm going to close my eyes and take a break, okay?"
He fell asleep.
