Chapter 1971: Battle Trials in the Dawn (6)
"Harassing your mother again?" said the black-cloaked man as soon as he entered.
"There's no such thing!" the little tiger wagged his tail: "People are coming to visit Mommy! Otherwise, Mommy will be lonely and stuck here!"
"Huhu...... A woman's chuckle came from the container, but the sound seemed to have been processed so that it didn't sound like a human voice and more like a mechanical sound. Bediwell suddenly remembered the artificial intelligence navigation system in his ship, Eve. That kind of cold voice that doesn't have much emotion, and I am afraid that it will be the same feeling when laughing in a special way.
"Don't sit here all the time, go back and rest. The man in the black cloak said, "If you don't rest early, you'll catch a cold and fever again." "
"But it's boring in the shelter...... When is the big brother going to take the doll out to play?"
"I'll talk about it when I have time. The man who was called the big brother by the tiger boy replied.
That's a rather cold answer. Maybe it's because I'm often asked, so I'm bored. Or maybe it's because he has some kind of unspeakable secret?
Despite his reluctance, the Tigerman Boy was forcibly chased away by his older brother and left the room. Sure enough, once the room was far from the scope of Aubert's consciousness, it became completely dim, as if it was about to fall out of the edge of the tigerman's dream and disappear. Bediwell had no way to continue hiding in such a place where he didn't know when he would disappear, so he could only tiptoe to follow, even though doing so would easily expose him.
Luckily, there are no pedestrians in this facility, which resembles a research institute, and it is deserted like a ghost town. In Aubert's memory, it looked like this, and I'm afraid it was not much different in reality.
Bediville scrept along the brightly lit area and soon came to another room.
"But people really can't sleep!" In the distance, the werewolf youth could hear the tiger boy complaining: "People don't feel tired at all!"
"How are you going to sleep?" responded to the boy by the [big brother], the young man in the black robe.
Bediwell wanted to dig up more information from the child, so he leaned his face to the door of the room and peeked through the crack in the door.
"Big brother tell a story to someone! For example, the story of the great golden dragon?" the little tiger had changed into loose pajamas and was rolling around on the bed, looking like he had ADHD.
"You've heard that story hundreds of times, haven't you ever gotten tired of it?" [Big Brother], who was sitting on the edge of the bed, was very helpless.
"It's better than not listening!" said Aubert, wagging his tail.
"Tsk...... All right. ------ can't you just lie down, at least be honest when you listen to my story. "
"Hey, hey. The little tiger then obediently lay on the bed and rested his head on the pillow.
"So let's get started. Where's the last time this story was preached?"
"The part of the battle between the Golden Dragon and the dragons. "
"Oh yes. Very good. The black-robed man paused and began to speak: "
So, the great golden dragon fought a decisive battle with his people in order to win the respect of his people.
Dragons are a very strange race, they don't talk about reason, they don't talk about politics, they only live the only truth in their hearts from ancient times to the present, and that is [power].
Dragons with absolute power will bring other dragons to their knees.
Dragons with absolute power will be recognized by other dragons.
It is precisely because of this that if a dragon wants to become the leader of all dragons, he must stand up and defeat all the voices that oppose him with dignity, and knock all the other dragons who do not obey him to the ground.
Violence, barbarism? Maybe. But among the dragons, that's the only language they speak.
After days and nights of continuous fighting, the golden dragon finally won all the challengers. Seeing his heroic fighting posture, seeing the many challengers who were defeated by the Golden Dragon and falling to the ground, and the dragons who were onlookers, no one dared to step forward to challenge the Golden Dragon.
And this is the last moment, when he is recognized by the dragons. From that moment on, he had the qualifications to become a new generation of Dragon Emperors.
There was only one thing he needed to do. "
The black-robed man paused, as if he was brewing feelings. He thought about it and then continued: "
The person in charge of arranging this duel was an elder of the dragon clan, and at the same time, he was also a rare and respected figure among the dragons. Even if this golden dragon can defeat all the challengers, it is only a show of strength. Without the help of the elders to administer justice, it would be almost impossible for the Golden Dragon to become the head of the dragons.
And there was an agreement between the elder and the golden dragon. In order for the Golden Dragon to receive the full assistance of the Elders, he must marry the Elder's granddaughter. The elders' purpose in doing this, of course, was to use political marriages to gain real power for themselves.
In order to become the Dragon Emperor, the Golden Dragon must agree to this political marriage.
But at that time, the golden dragon already had a sweetheart. It was a human woman, far away in Great Britain.
Choosing a political marriage and becoming king from now on, or giving it all up and going back to pursue his true love is a dilemma for the Golden Dragon.
However, he eventually decided to give it all up. Instead of carrying on his father's legacy and becoming the emperor of the dragon clan, he risked offending the dragons and returned to the human world to find his true love.
However, when he returns to his former place, he discovers that his true love is someone else's fiancée, and he is having a wedding in the church.
Bruised by the fierce battle, he desperately rushed into the church to stop the wedding and told her how he really felt.
The wedding was interrupted, and the groom, who was embarrassed, raised his sword and stabbed the golden dragon.
He didn't dodge.
The blade pierced through his heart, the heart that had been beating for a long time.
He told her at the last moment before losing consciousness that he loved her.
She was originally unmoved, but she was moved.
Ignoring everyone's opposition, she fled the wedding scene with him dying.
Then, both worlds were furious.
Both humans and dragons are hunting these two.
To appease the anger of humanity, he does not know what to do.
But the way to appease the dragon's wrath is simple, to give up his power and become a human. All the dragon cares about is his strength, and when he loses everything, the dragon loses interest in him.
So, he enlisted the help of his wizard friend. The wizard has a potion that allows him to give up all dragon powers and become a real human. Though his life would become as short as a human, and though his flesh would become as fragile as a human, the potion would calm the strife.
Drinking this potion means that he will never be able to live with the noble throne.
Drinking this potion means that he has given up everything he has forever: immortality, strength, power, and dignity for the human woman he loves.
However, he did not hesitate to drink the potion. He understood. Compared to everything he had spent his life pursuing and having, what was really worth having and keeping was the short time with her.
However, he was deceived, and the potion was fake. It doesn't have the slightest effect, and it doesn't turn dragons into humans.
Instead, it was the human girl who was moved to see the golden dragon willing to sacrifice everything for her. She drank another potion that the mage had prepared for her and transformed from a human into a dragon.
And then ------"
"Huh?" the young man in the black robe suddenly stopped and looked at the tiger boy. The little tiger was already napping and falling into a deep sleep.
"Did you finally fall asleep? The black-robed man sighed.
Bediwell couldn't help but feel a little strange at this time, and frowned. Isn't this Aubert's dream world? The little tiger fell asleep in his own dream, so what is it, a dream in a dream? Or is it ------
"Something is wrong. The shadow of the black crow, who was squaaning on Bediwell's shoulder, also said, "Don't stay long, it is advisable to get out of this dream as soon as possible." "
"Is that the one who broke into Aubert's dream?" The black-robed man in the room suddenly disappeared, and in the next moment, he had flashed in front of Bedeville's eyes, startling the werewolf youth!
"What?!" Bediwell stepped back vigilantly, distancing himself from the man in an instant!
"It's a spell!" said Daredevil Harry, "that child has been spelled, a technique to prevent the prying eyes of the outside world!"
"I know what a spell is!" said Berdiwell, scurrying on the defensive. But he also has no clue how to fight in the dream world, can he still dance with a sword and fight back the enemy like in the real world?
Besides, someone actually used a spell to protect Aubert's dreams from the information in his dreams from leaking out easily!
"I don't know who you are, but this is not a world you can tread, step back!" The black-robed man seemed to be looking at Bediwell, but he wasn't actually looking. He is a manifestation of the illusion of the spell, a pre-programmed program that will use fixed means to carry out a fixed attack, no matter who invades this dream.
"Woo?!" When the other party raised his hand, Bediwell only felt that a terrible black storm was sweeping towards him, the storm was cold and oppressive, like the heaviest nightmare in the heart of man.
"Run!" The night demon flew in front of Bedeville and suddenly emitted a golden electric light, which formed something like a barrier, blocking part of the black storm that was coming towards Bedeville: "In other people's dreams, your spirit body is very fragile! You haven't forgotten what I just said to you, have you?!"
Bediville certainly did not forget. Once the spirit body is injured, he may have all kinds of sequelae when he returns to the real world, and he may go crazy after he returns!
The black-robed man was a spell that would indiscriminately attack anyone who invaded the dream, and Bedeville couldn't fight against it. Now he is simply bathed naked in the deep cold of the polar region, and in the face of the huge power in front of him, he is so weak and powerless, and he will be swallowed by unknown dangers in the environment at any time!
Although it's a pity, he can only withdraw first!
"Walk to the light behind you!" Harry shouted as he helped Beddivwell fend off the spell's attack.
Once there was the idea of retreating, a white light did appear behind Bediwell. The werewolf youth didn't hesitate at all, turned his head and sprinted towards the white light!
