"Dragons are sacred creatures in the East. ”

Charlotte explains,

"Although in primeval times, it may have been real. But in modern times, it is definitely a creature that only exists in fantasy. But—"

"Just because something exists in fantasy doesn't mean it can't be embodied in reality. ”

Charlotte pointed to Alexis and Rivan,

"As a Valkyrie and a Headless Horseman, you should understand, right?"

They both nodded.

"Of course, in essence, the dragon is as powerful as a god. So it's very difficult to manifest them normally. But there's something like a dragon in this world, or what it's called a dragon—"

"Earth veins, or dragon veins!"

Charlotte pointed to her feet,

"According to oriental legends, there is a magical power flowing in the earth under our feet, which they call the "dragon vein". ”

"Although according to modern terms, many dragon veins may be manifested by earthquakes or volcanic eruptions. However, the mysterious power of the dragon vein still exists. ”

"And after a person's death, the fragments of the soul will gradually merge with the dragon veins, and under the influence of certain elements, a special kind of dragon will be born-"

"This dragon cannot exist without the dragon veins themselves, but it is also a fantasy creature called "dragon". In other words—"

"It can also breathe out what you call a "mirage", thus creating a ghost market!?"

Alexis asked,

"And in the underground of Malcolm's sanatorium, there is such a "dragon vein", or "dragon"!?"

"Yes. ”

Looking at the pale-faced Miss Valkyrie, Charlotte smiled,

"Don't be nervous, we won't provoke it if it doesn't have to. ”

"That's fine. ”

Alexis breathed a sigh of relief, and then became curious again,

"According to you, Rivan feels the heat underground, and it's because of the dragon?"

"Yes. It was the dragon's breath. ”

Charlotte nodded,

"Similar to the legend, the dragon's breath is scorching. However, this scorching heat is more aimed at the soul. Therefore, Raven without a physical body is easier to feel. ”

"And what about the fog I see in the sky?"

"That's a mirage!"

Charlotte spread her hands,

"That's the manifestation of the dragon's breath, which can form a ghost market, and at the same time, it will isolate the observation of ordinary ghosts. ”

"That's why I can't see what's inside!?"

"That's right. ”

Charlotte confirmed Alexis' guess,

"Moreover, because the dragon itself is a divine being, it instinctively loaths other goblins and does not allow other goblins to enter its territory. ”

"So it cut off the "network" in the territory?"

"It's an instinct. ”

Charlotte explains,

"Actually, it's not just you ghosts with names and surnames, but even ordinary ghosts can't exist in the realm of dragons. ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Alexis,

"The last time you were able to enter Malcolm's Nursing Home was entirely because you were possessed by Sally. This particular layer of hiding protects you, but even so, you should be suppressed - you don't remember the things in the sanatorium very well, do you?"

"You say that......"

Alexis thought about it again,

"It seems like yes. ”

"This is the suppression of the dragon's instinct, it can be called "dragon power"!"

Charlotte smiled,

"Actually, I had a special salt check in the sanatorium last time - there were no ghosts at all, but the ghost reaction was mild. ”

"Because there's only one anomaly there—"

"Dragons?"

Rifan Phoenix asked softly.

"Yes. ”

Charlotte smiled,

"Within the territory of the beast, there will be no other beast. ”

"Okay. ”

Alexis put on a helpless expression,

"I don't want to believe it, but since there are Valkyries—"

She pointed to herself,

"The existence of the dragon is not impossible. So, what we need now is a dragon-slaying Siegfried?"

She looked at Charlotte and suspected that the film to be shot would be based on Wagner's "The Ring of the Nibelungen" as the guy had always done.

"How is that possible!?"

Charlotte couldn't help but laugh,

"The best thing to do with a dragon that spends most of its time asleep is not to provoke it. If you don't die, you don't die, do you think I'm the kind of person who does?"

"Like!"

Alexis nodded directly,

"Think about it! How many powerful goblins have you provoked since the beginning of the ghost tiger? Even if you say you're going to slay a dragon, I don't think it's strange. ”

“......”

Charlotte really didn't expect that she would be such an image in Alexis's mind. He couldn't help but turn his head to look at Raven Phoenix to the side—

The latter spread his hands.

"Okay!"

Charlotte covered her forehead helplessly,

"In short, for something as powerful as a dragon, I won't provoke it if there's no need. ”

"That's good!"

Listening to Charlotte's sworn declaration, Alexis and Raven were relieved.

After all, even the Valkyries and Headless Horsemen are still in the face of the legendary dragon.

"However, if the dragon doesn't allow other goblins to exist in its territory—"

The worry faded, and Alexis' curiosity surged up again,

"And how did the ghost city form in the mirage it exhaled?

"It's like the Pentagon may be cut off from the outside network, but they still use computers. ”

Charlotte gave an inappropriate example,

"The ghosts in those ghost markets are in the service of dragons. They rely on the power of dragons to exist, and their connection with the human brain network in the outside world is completely severed. ”

"I see!"

Alexis nodded,

"And what are we going to do after that?"

"After that?"

Charlotte shook her head,

"If the dragon's consciousness is not affected by other people or ghosts, it will sleep all the time, and nothing will happen. ”

"And what if something affects it?"

"That's more troublesome!"

Charlotte shrugged,

"We need to find out what affects the dragon's consciousness, or there might be some trouble. ”

Speaking of this, Charlotte sighed,

"This requires going deep into the dragon's consciousness. ”

“...... Well, come on!"

For Charlotte's plan, whether Alexis or Rivan, they can only love it.

Charlotte didn't care about this, he recalled the various situations he saw in Malcolm's nursing home, but he was thinking about a question in his heart-

Can you take this dragon hidden in the leylines for your own use?

You know, how to train a dragon is not an easy task.
