In fact, he couldn't tell what it was like, like a murmur that suddenly mixed in after a long silence. He tried to see where the sound was coming from, but found that there was a deathly silence all around him......

That's the voice he made.

……

"As we mentioned, Slade has king-level power, but he actually died fifteen years ago." The principal said.

"No one knows how he died, and no one knows where he died. But since then, his stepson, Sutherton Jane Bursa, has been directing the Miracle. We guess...... Bertha should be the last heir left by Slade in this world, but he may not have had time to explain the aftermath before he died, so he died directly in some kind of disaster, so it caused Bersa, and even everyone on the Miracle, to know that there were reborn eggs. He whispered.

"But what kind of catastrophe can cause the death of a king-level half-blood?" Lin Sheng frowned, this matter is really weird.

"I don't know." The Headmaster shook his head, "If the other party is another king, then this possibility may be able to be expanded to the maximum infinitely. As he spoke, he exhaled a long puff of smoke and sighed, "The two king-level beings fighting each other is indeed an irresistible disaster for ordinary people. ”

"But it stands to reason that they are already of the same kind, but why fight?" Lin Sheng didn't understand.

"For the sake of dragon eggs." The Headmaster's fingers tapped lightly on the table, and he said, "Slade is only a half-blood after all, and he can evolve into a pure-blood beast, and even say that he can have king-level powers, all because he made a deal with Dilnaga. ”

"What deal?" Lin Sheng asked.

The Headmaster paused, then continued, "He sold his soul to the Ice King, and promised to stay by the Ice King's reborn eggs for the next hundred years. Perhaps at that time, Dilnaga also realized that it was not time for her to wake up, so she approached Slade, and in exchange, she transplanted a third of her blood to him. ”

"Wait, orc blood can be transplanted?" Lin Sheng's sharp brows furrowed fiercely, and he asked in shock. is as calm as he is, and suddenly his perception of the world was subverted by the principal's words.

Orc ancestry can be transplanted. This kind of thing that countless half-breeds have dreamed of for thousands of years really exists in this world. If this method is accidentally revealed to the world, the existing gods will definitely fight for it. Open and secret fighting is secondary, and the most important thing is to provoke a war between the major god families.

The peace of mankind after the "Tyrans Holy War" was already hard-won, and if this pattern was broken again at this time, the half-bloods, the entire human race, would be in danger.

The catastrophe more than 1,600 years ago had already caused the collapse of the entire half-breed power, and even countless families of gods and goddesses were completely wiped out from that war. This devastating blow is so devastating for humanity that even more than 1,600 years have passed, from which it has not been able to recover.

If this method is announced to the world again at this time, Lin Sheng can't imagine what kind of disaster the world will face next. After all, the method of blood transplantation is too tempting, and the king-level ability is enough to make countless gods crazy about it.

"Yes." The headmaster said, "In the secrets of the beasts, there is a way to do it, but the side effects are very large, and it may cause the user to completely lose human reason. ”

"What is it?" Lin Sheng asked.

"Devour the heart of a king, or a living reborn egg." The principal said in a dry tone.

He handed Lin Sheng the high-definition digital photo in his hand, which was printed with a dead ice-blue dragon. The dragon's body was a deep blue hue, as large as a hill, and its body was scrawny, with its limbs and head soaked in water. The spine protrudes high, and the sharp ice ridges are densely covered with the bare chest, and from a distance it looks like a floating iceberg, which is difficult to distinguish.

Lin Sheng's face was shocked, and he took the photo. From the shooting angle above, the photo was taken on an icebreaker one hundred and fifty meters away from the dragon's body. In the upper left corner of the photograph is the coat of arms of Atlantis, the ancient three-headed dragon emblem, surrounded by a deep ice blue, and at the bottom is the time when the picture was taken.

“2000.11.09”。

"This was discovered fifteen years ago by our academy expedition team on their way to Australia, as they prepared to pass through the Banda Sea and sail to Karumboum to investigate the dragon ruins. But while passing by Veta Island, the dragon suddenly appeared in their field of vision, attracting them with its huge body. When they stopped, they stopped to look at it, only to realize that it was the remains of a dragon skeleton that had been dead for many years. The headmaster whispered.

The huge remains in the photograph were so large that the photographer had to stand 150 meters away to capture all of its body, and if you looked at it from a different angle, I am afraid that the whole photograph would not be able to accommodate half of its body.

"Keel remains...... Do you know its identity?" Lin Sheng asked.

"I don't know, because the body has been soaked in seawater and corroded, so it is difficult to tell the difference, but from the DNA extracted at that time, we have a preliminary conclusion...... It is supposed to be the twenty-first monarch of the orcs, the king of the sea and ice, Dilnaga. The remains were her full form, and after 'cocooning', her body returned to its most primitive dragons, what we call it...... Dragon. ”

Finally, he took a deep breath and continued, "We speculate that this is her body that 'died' more than a hundred years ago, and then, for some reason, the dragon eggs drifted down with the dragon's body, and finally crossed the East China Sea from Japan, then to the Philippine Sea, the Banda Sea, and finally to the Timor Sea. A moving iceberg was seen in the East China Sea in 1980, but soon rumors soon spread that it was just a mirage refracted in the depths of the Arctic. Our scientists speculated that it was the trail left by Dilnaga's body as it passed through the east coast of China, but the Chinese hybrids spotted her before we did. ”

"They immediately covered up the truth about the remains of the Dragon King and pushed her remains out to sea. That's right, at least they kept the secrets of this world and didn't reveal the existence of the orcs to the world. The principal said.

"But Slade found her anyway and even took the dragon egg from her." Lin Sheng said undeniably.

"No, to be precise, Slade didn't notice her, actually...... It was she who found Slade. The Headmaster threw away the lit cigar, snuffed it out, and continued, "Slade was at sea at the time, because the Australian military is a mixed system, and all half-breeds are programmed into it. Every year the Australian military asks the half-breeds to help the government on a mission at sea, and that day it was Slade's turn, but the weather at sea was unusually bad. ”

"What did they experience at sea? How did Dilnaga find Slade?" Lin Sheng continued to ask.

The Headmaster bowed his head and was silent for a moment, as if organizing words, and then spoke, "It was a bad day, the waves washed them against the reef, they hit the rocks, the hull of the ship rolled, and only Slade was left alive in the whole team. He wandered alone on the sea for three days and three nights, and it was a small island that saved him. ”

The headmaster himself sighed, and said, "The island is so big that he even found edible fresh water and clean food on it." But just when he thought he could use the island to wait for help to arrive, a woman's voice woke him up from his sleep. ”

"Is it Dilnaga's voice?" Lin Sheng said.

"Yes." The headmaster looked up and sighed, "That island isn't really an island at all, it's the remains of Dilnaga that have been dead for many years. She uses her body to attract fish so that Slade can survive there. She was clever enough to ask Slade for a trade when he was waiting for him to the point of collapse. Slade had no choice, and the more than a month of waiting had already made him lose patience with the military. ”

"Man's desire to survive in a desperate situation is very strong, and after experiencing endless despair, he finally signed the contract to sell his soul. After selling his soul to the Ice King, he kept his promise and dug up the regenerated egg in Dilnaga's body, shelved it aboard the Miracle, and promised to guard her reborn egg for a hundred years until she fully awakened. In the end, he ate the Ice King's heart and transplanted a third of her bloodline. As he spoke, he pointed to the dark area in the photo, "We found a huge gap in the remains, as if it had been dug by something sharp. At that time, the expedition team ventured down through the gap and found that the chest cavity that was originally a dragon corpse was empty, and the heart that grew there had disappeared without a trace. The principal said.

"Devoured by Slade...... What?" Lin Sheng whispered in disbelief.

"But what does this have to do with Edward, he is just an ordinary person, and there is no way to have a deal with Dilnaga." Lin Sheng suddenly remembered and asked.

"Do you remember Edward John Smith?" The principal paused, stared at him and said, "The captain of the Titanic died on the shipwreck in 1912. Edward was his eldest grandson, and his full name was Edward von John Smith. Edward searched for his body at sea until decades later in the Timor Sea. ”

"Next to the remains of Dilnagar?" Lin Sheng.

"Yes." The headmaster nodded, seeing his surprise, and whispered, "Weird, isn't it?" I also thought it was incredible. ”

He tapped lightly on the photo on the table, and continued, "After the Titanic hit an iceberg in the waters off Newfoundland, the wreckage had long since sunk to the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean at a depth of more than 3,700 meters. But after many years, its hull was rediscovered in the Indian Ocean, thousands of miles away. No one knows how it passed, but Edward did find it in the Timor Sea. It was all like something that had been arranged in the dark, but it was hidden deep in the sea, and it was only when Edward passed through the Timor Sea that the rope was gradually pulled out of the water. ”

With a "boom", the headmaster's voice came into his mind like a spell. Immediately afterwards, Lin Sheng felt as if he had suddenly fallen into a huge roulette wheel, countless metal gears were frantically biting, the bearings were rotating and dialing, and the ancient bottom rail was "rumbling" underneath, and the piercing noise exploded in his ears like thunder.

Suddenly, Lin Sheng raised his head and saw that on the countless gears as far as the eye could see, there was a person standing on each gear. They all stood silently, silently among the gears, one after the other, one after the other, like a long wire of metal, entwined with each other not knowing which direction it led.

In confusion, Lin Sheng turned his head to look into the distance, and found that the color of each gear was different, some black, some white, and some ...... Red.

They are all different colors, but they all lead in the same direction. And what surprised Lin Sheng even more was that among those illusory figures, he saw Slade, Edward, Dilnagar, and even ...... Himself!
