Chapter 146: Into the Underwater City
The sea of clouds outside the Holy Court shimmered golden in the sunlight, and seemed to have a slight sense of peace, but perhaps only those who have experienced it will understand that the undercurrent surging beneath the clouds. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
I stood on the top of the platform until the bird flew up and landed on my arm, and from it I received the first good news in recent months: the dragon egg we had been looking for finally had news.
In retrospect, this is my third year in the Holy Court, and during those three years we have been searching for the new dragon that Ahibon spoke of, and it seems that our efforts have paid off, and we have finally found its traces.
In the past three years, I have basically never left the Holy Court, and I have been working hard to improve my level, and now I have finally become similar to him, and the cooperation between me and Qingkong can be regarded as a tacit understanding. It's just that I still can't know what it's thinking, who made us not the original partner after all.
It's just that the training day after day is really wearing down my temper, I can feel the changes in my mood over the years, there will never be any big ups and downs in my heart, my mood is always suppressed at a very low level of activity, and my words have begun to become less. Although this keeps my mind in a very clear state all the time, it also makes me feel like something is missing. But there's no denying that I'm becoming more and more like an orthodox god.
In the past few years, Gray has not been idle, he couldn't imagine that he was so cynical before, and he was willing to endure such a boring and lonely life in the Holy Court, and gradually began to become the pillar of the Holy Court, and he has been promoted to a judge, becoming the same level as Rollo. This also gives the two of them, who are already evil in themselves, more reasons to mix things together, and they simply hate each other and smell the same.
I went back to the conference hall and informed you of the information I had received.
Bright, but they were a little silent.
They were silent because the place where the dragon egg was found this time was actually in the distant underwater city.
The underwater city is where the Sea Clan has lived for generations, and I always thought that the Sea Clan only existed in mythological legends, but later I realized that it was only because of their isolation and relative independence that the main continent was unfamiliar with them. Because of the special geographical environment there, the difficulty of exploration has also greatly increased. Although the Holy Court has also sent many batches of people to search for it, there has been no success. We were able to sense the existence of the dragon egg, but we have not been able to find its exact location, which has brought our actions to a stalemate. Ahbourne's proposal was for the dragon knight to find it himself, using the special induction between the dragon knight and the dragon egg, but it was still undecided.
In the past three years, the current situation has also undergone great changes.
In the past three years, the power of Castlevania has grown rapidly, but the Divine Domain has continued to weaken, and it has become difficult for the Holy Court to maintain the delicate balance between this. In terms of human society, the situation of the Duchy of Salandel is also developing day by day, and now it is dominant, and it has opened a huge gap with other countries.
I looked around at the people present, pondered for a moment, and said, "I'll go." It's been three years since I came to the Holy Court, and I haven't been able to do anything for the Holy Court in the past three years, so let me go this time, I also want to test my current strength. ”
"Okay, but I'm going to go with you, so I can take care of you. After all, the search for dragon eggs is complicated, and there is absolutely no room for failure. "Lord Sharon looked at me, and for some reason his expression was a little complicated.
"It's okay, you two can go and have more insurance." Bright thought it was a good plan, and said to me, "You can pick a few clever men to accompany you, so that you can clear the way for you." ”
For the first official mission, I still have some expectations in my heart.
But in the matter of who to take, I have a little bit of trouble. For some reason, both Rollo and Gray showed a keen interest in the trip, and I didn't actually plan to travel with either of them at all. I think the strength of both of them is very strong, and they are more suitable to complete those tasks that ordinary people can't do independently, so that it is the most reasonable distribution. But for some reason, the two of them were extremely persistent this time, which made me compromise, but at most there could only be one person to walk with.
Luo Luo's reason is very good, because the previous dragon egg was found by him, so he is the most experienced in finding dragon eggs. Gray's reasoning seemed to be reluctant, saying that he didn't want to go to Megliel anymore to do those boring tasks. I seriously considered the situation in front of me, and finally decided to take Rollo with me, because although both of them have a lot of play, when it comes to dealing with people, Gray is obviously superior, and he will hardly clash with others like Rollo, so when he goes on a mission alone, he is more at ease than Rollo.
After making this decision, Rollo was a little proud, he put his arm on Gray's shoulder and said: "Don't worry, I will take good care of Lord Dingenier and bring him back completely, don't worry about it, or go back to Merlin's Forest as soon as possible to accompany those blind bears or something...... "I don't know if I am still like a child in his eyes."
Now that the mission has been set, we are ready to go. But for some reason, Lord Sharon seemed a little silent on the day of departure. Along the way, Luo Luosha told me about the things in the underwater city, which gave me a preliminary understanding of the things in the underwater city.
"I've been to underwater cities a few times before, and in simple terms, they are urban agglomerations built on the bottom of the sea, using the underwater air to form a dry environment, and the sea tribes live in these air-wrapped cities. As recorded in the book, the sea tribe has achieved a comfortable life and longevity under the sea at the cost of not seeing sunlight for the rest of their lives, but the underwater city is not a completely dark environment, there is still a light source, as for where this light comes from, it is still a mystery to us. But it's also because the Sea Clan has always been isolated from the world, so their understanding of many things is not as thorough as that of humans on the road, and they basically have no connection with the Holy Court, at most they only stay in knowing that such an organization may exist in the world, and they have heard of dragons and dragon knights. So my advice is that we should not be too high-profile so as not to scare them. ”
I carefully memorized the main points of Rollo's words, and at this time, Lord Sharon also spoke: "Dragons can't dive to the bottom of the sea, so this time we can only rely on ourselves. Although you are just looking for dragon eggs, you still can't know what you will encounter along the way, you have to pay attention to protect yourself, I hope you remember that you, the dragon knight, are more important than dragon eggs. “
I nodded.
As the light fell under the clouds, I saw an endless sea in front of me, rippling blue waves, it was really turbulent, it was the first time I saw such a scene, I couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
When the light was only four or five meters from the sea, Lord Sharon rolled up a storm into the sea, and we took advantage of the instantaneous air flow to dive smoothly, and began to head towards our destination in the bubble.
As the sea floor continues to descend, the surrounding environment gradually darkens. I raised a dark blue ball of light to brighten up our surroundings a little bit, allowing us to see our way.
It's just that the environment below the sea is a little more lonely than I imagined, and at most there are all kinds of fish swimming around. Finally, after an unknown amount of time, I finally saw the light coming from Haiti. Huge bubbles cover the crust of the seabed and shine outward, and there are all kinds of buildings inside, and there is more than one such bubble city, scattered in different places. At the same time, there are many buildings that resemble the remains of urban ruins elsewhere under the sea.
We continued to descend for more than half an hour before we were almost on the edge of the bubble, and it seemed that these urban agglomerations were far bigger than we thought.
After the bubble we were riding in fused with one of the city circles, we were considered to have successfully entered. I can't see that Lord Sharon seems to be familiar with everything here, and the entry is smooth, and there is no one near the place where the fusion is fused, which makes our idea of keeping a low profile well implemented.
It was only the moment I came into contact with this small border town that I felt a little strange: because I actually felt the aura of demons here, and it seemed that there were quite a few of them.
The time spent in the Holy Court in the past few years has left me with little contact with demons, and I am more sensitive to their senses. So you shouldn't be able to go wrong with the feeling this time. It's just that don't they all say that the Sea Clan rarely has contact with the outside world, and the demons almost don't communicate with this underwater city? Why is there so much demonic aura here?
I still have the pottery shards that Wu Yao gave me back then, and I think that the aura of the gods on my body should still be hidden, which makes me a little glad that I will not startle those demons. It's just that the situation in the underwater city is obviously abnormal now, and I feel that the number of demons will be more than that on the main continent of Megaril.
I told the two of them what I had discovered, and Lord Sharon was obviously a little surprised, but Rollo's expression was a little incomprehensible, and after a while, he said with a smile: "Interesting, it seems that this place is more interesting than I thought." ”
