Chapter 15, The Prophet and the Brave
The name of the dragon quickly spread in Alpha City because of the battle with the god of fire, and the current belief in Alpha City is him, and soon surrounded the place where he was, and the benefits brought were also remarkable, the power of faith increased rapidly, and the dragon's wound healing speed was actually a little faster!
The dragon glanced back at the tavern, although the explosion caused by the Vulcan did not cause much casualties to Alpha City, but the aftermath of the explosion still caused a lot of damage to the neighborhood, such as the tavern in one of the buildings closest to the explosion, and the dragon's table full of delicious food was blown away.
It's a pity that he hasn't eaten much of those delicacies, although he can order more, but now he is not in the mood to eat anymore, and with the support of the people of Alpha City, he returned to Anne's house, and the people of Alpha City have strengthened their faith in him a lot along the way.
"The Great Lord of the Rain, the Prophet who sent me to find you, wanted to see you." Anne's brother Ruth said.
The dragon thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.
He was also curious about this person who could predict the future.
Especially after he learns that he also has the ability to rewind time.
Since the prophet has the ability to predict the future, it is more or less related to the power of time, and it may be able to give him something to gain in this regard.
Anne's brother received the dragon's consent and hurriedly invited the prophet, after all, the Lord of Rain, as the new faith of Alpha City, exists like a god and has a noble status, so let him go to the prophet, and lose his identity.
Not long after, Anne's brother came back with a gray-haired old man, this old man was the prophet of Alpha City, and sure enough, he looked like a very knowledgeable wise man, the former and Anne looked at each other, Anne nodded, and put the dragon scales on the old prophet, so that he could gain the ability to communicate with the dragon without barriers.
"Hello, Your Majesty the Lord of the Rain......"
The communication between the dragon and the prophet did not shy away from anyone, anyway, because it was an exchange of spiritual power, except for the dragon and the prophet old man, no third person could hear the content of their conversation.
They questioned each other, and the Prophet simply wanted to see the dragon, but the dragon wanted to know the secret of time in the Prophet, and the Prophet replied because he believed in time, and then luckily got the response of time, gaining the ability to see the occasional fragment of the future.
The Prophet was only thirty years old, but he looked like a ninety-year-old man, which was a side effect of his abilities.
The dragon did not get a satisfactory answer and was a little disappointed.
The Prophet left shortly after, and in the darkness of the night, the dragon left Anne's house to return to the Forest of Morning Light.
However, as soon as he left the city of Afa, he encountered four people who stood in his way.
"Don't get me wrong, we're not hostile."
The man in charge, Shion, said, raising his empty hands to show that he had no weapons in his hands, as a sign of sincerity.
The dragon naturally also felt that the other party was not hostile, otherwise the other party would not be able to stand on the ground and talk to him at all now.
Shi Ang said a lot, the dragon only understood a few words, as if he found that the dragon did not understand, the little girl (Dora) next to Shi Ang raised the staff and stomped lightly, and a wave of fluctuations came out of the staff, enveloping the dragon and the brave team.
"Within this magical range, you can talk freely." Dora explained.
Shi Ang looked at Dora, "It turns out that there is such a handy magic, you should have taken it out sooner, Dora." β
Dora said: "I have never seen anyone who can't communicate in Pan-continental in the past, so this magic is naturally too chicken, even I almost forgot about it, and besides, you didn't ask me." β
ββ¦β¦β
Shi Ang scratched his head in embarrassment, then looked at the dragon, his face was straight, and said, "Lord of Rain, please be my partner!" β
ββ¦β¦β
The dragon was stunned for a moment, then shook his head.
Shi Ang looked regretful, he had obviously expected this outcome, but he still wanted to try: "Don't you think about it again?" β
The dragon shook his head without thinking about it, and after saying that, he passed the Brave Squad and continued to walk towards the Forest of Morning Light.
Shi Ang didn't stop him, and instead said: "Wait, Lord of Rain, in a city called 'Nok Cheng', there is a ten-star mission, the content is to kill the great snake of the Forest of Morning Light, that is, you, the Lord of Rain, I don't say this to threaten you to join us, I just want to tell you that someone wants to take your life, and even this person may not be 'human' at all." β
The dragon was stunned, he could hear the sincerity in Shi Ang's words, and thought that what he said should be true, but Rao was like this, he just nodded without looking back, and then continued to move forward.
Long after the dragon was gone, Shi Ang muttered, "Don't even say a word to me." β
"Are you angry?" Dora said.
Shi Ang shook his head: "People have such a personality, this Lord of Rain,...... I'm a bit introverted. But in general, the Lord of the Rain is not a bad guy, but the 'person' who assigned the task has ulterior intentions, and he can actually get past the task review system of the mercenary union to issue a ten-star task, so the identity of this 'person' is worth figuring out. β
Kai looked at the night sky and said, "I feel the breath of conspiracy. β
Shi Ang said solemnly: "It is indeed a conspiracy, if we don't investigate it in advance, I'm afraid that we humans and the rain lord will lose both, so we have to investigate who did it!" β
Dora muttered, "Is it a demon, or is it a prank of the gods......"
β¦β¦
After returning to the Forest of Morning Light, the dragon returned to his dragon form and meditated in the small lake for three days, and under the influence of the power of faith from Alpha City, he fully recovered from his injuries.
On this trip, although he lost a divine arrow (the divine arrow and the divine tree died together), and he did not get the artifact, but the benefit of experiencing the power of faith is one of the gains of this trip, and another greater gain is the mysterious time power hidden in his body.
"Let me see what my chances look like."
The dragon hid at the bottom of the lake, calmed down and entered the state of inner vision, observing everything in the body with his divine sense, and did not dare to let go of the slightest, especially the heart part, but after exploring a circle, he did not gain anything.
The dragon was not disappointed, if he had discovered it with a sweep of his divine sense, then he would have discovered the mysterious power in his body a year ago.
He persevered, and in the following days, in addition to polishing his mana, he used his divine sense to look inward, and so on day after day, one day after half a year, he finally found that power in the dragon tendons close to his heart, gray, as if it was a chaotic qi.
"It should be the breath of time."
This breath of time was like a mist that dispersed but did not condense, and the dragon looked at it for a long time, and his mind moved, attracting a trace of mana to be injected into the scattered time qi, trying to gather it.
I didn't expect it to be useful!
A sparse fog mass gathered by the time qi that got a trace of the dragon's mana, he felt that the time qi had undergone some kind of change, and immediately put in more mana, and as the time qi gained more and more mana, the fog became more and more condensed, and finally turned into a small bead.
"Magic weapon!"
The dragon was overjoyed when he saw this, he had never gotten the magic weapon in the time of the flood, and he couldn't imagine that he would come back from the dead once and get such a treasure, and it was indeed his chance.
"Let me refine you!"
Half of the mana in the dragon's body was immediately poured into the bead, and the light on the bead shone brighter, and the light became more and more abundant, and suddenly, a huge energy burst out from the bead and strung in the dragon's body.
Roarββ!
This energy flowed through the dragon's tendons, into the dragon's brain, and finally through the dragon's eyes, creating a whirlpool at the bottom of the lake, and the lake water was swept into the whirlpool, including the dragon.
The wolf came to the lake sullenly, and when he saw the scene in front of him, he was stunned.
What about water? What about dragons?
It turned out that the location of the small lake, most of the lake water had disappeared, and the dragon had also disappeared......
