With the joint efforts of the merciless rookie city management and the violent royal sister who burned the soul of steel, this young red dragon from the other world only survived on the earth plane for less than three hours, and completed its extremely short life in an extremely bloody and tragic form.
However, the tragedy caused by this red dragon is far from over.
When Wang Yao and Professor Yang carried the cement pier containing the dying young dragon, got into a Toyota pickup truck, honked the horn and drove away. Wang Qiu was sprinkling lime in the yard for disinfection, while listening to Cai Rong, Lori of the Radio Wave Department, and Ma Tong, a rotten female senior sister, explain to him the ins and outs of today's strange things.
-- Now that the whole thing has come to the point where it is now, it doesn't matter what is forbidden or what is not prohibited.
First of all, Cai Rong found a hole in his backpack in front of him.
-- It's really a hole!
The hole is round and about the same diameter as a basketball. The back is a smooth mirror with silver glitter, and the front is a deep darkness that you can't see as far as you can see, but occasionally there are a few brilliant rays of brilliance, and the edges are glowing with a faint golden light.
According to Cai Rong's description, the dragon egg fell out of this hole.
ββ¦β¦ This is the legendary wormhole that transcends time and space, and it is also a gate that connects another parallel shijie! β
Senior Sister Ma Tong put her hands behind her back and said in a gorgeous voice like an aria, "...... Since the eighties of the last century, this kind of wormhole has begun to appear in various places in Shijie. First in England, then in Japan, then in the Soviet Union and the United States. After entering the 21st century, wormholes have finally appeared in China...... But do you know where these wormholes come from? β
Wang Qiu panted and put down the lime bucket, then wiped his sweat and rolled his eyes, "...... It's because I don't know that I want to ask you! β
ββ¦β¦ Alas, what a humble heart! Senior Sister Ma Tong shook her fingers, with an expression of "children can't be taught", "...... To be honest, there are no results on the nature and generation principle of these wormholes, and a series of completely unreliable hypotheses have been put forward. But at least one thing is clear, and that is that at the other end of each wormhole, there is at least one traverser! β
ββ¦β¦ Traverser? Wang Qiu blinked in surprise.
ββ¦β¦ That's right, traversers are those unlucky people who inexplicably travel to another time and space because of lightning strikes, car accidents, jumping off buildings, electric shocks, shipwrecks, earthquakes, fog, and falling into the toilet and other weird reasons. β
Senior Sister Ma Tong shrugged her shoulders and explained--But this question actually doesn't need her to explain at all, under the influence of countless online novels and animation works, contemporary Chinese college students, basically everyone knows very well what is a cross-traveler, and who is a cross-traveler.
ββ¦β¦ So far, most of the wormholes, or space-time gates, that we have discovered have led to a certain ancient civilization in the history of the earth, and some have led to the prehistoric flood era. There are also some places that lead to another part of the plane, such as from Beijing to the South Pole, from Shanghai to the Sahara Desert, and so on. Only a handful lead to the unknown - such as the wormhole in front of you where a dragon egg has fallen. β
ββ¦β¦ In short, there must be a space-time disturbance caused by the traverser first, and then it will cause a connection between the two shijies, so that they will be penetrated by the wormhole, and there is a time difference in between. In other words, the traverser must stay in the other shijie for a while before it is possible to open the wormhole that leads to our shijie. According to the statistics over the years, the fastest of them may only have to wait for a few hours, and the slowest has to wait for more than ten years......"...,
Senior Sister Ma Tong continued to introduce, "...... However, most of these wormholes are only the size of a basketball or even a ping-pong ball, and unless they have some kind of ability or spell ability, ordinary travelers can't use them to go home.
Moreover, once the traveler uses the wormhole to return to our shijie, or unfortunately dies in another shijie, then the wormhole will collapse and destroy within a day or two at most - according to our speculation, many travelers may not even wait for the wormhole to open, and will die there.
In addition, wormholes are not permanent, usually as short as a few days or as long as years, even if the traveler stays in the other world and does not return, the wormhole connecting the two shijie will gradually disappear - it seems that the traveler has been gradually assimilated by that shijie, so that there will no longer be a rejection reaction.
For Shijie on the other side of the wormhole, many people are very interested. But the problem is that not everyone can pass through the wormhole, but only a very small number of people who have awakened the spatial ability can safely cross the wormhole and shuttle back and forth between the other world and our shijie.
What do you say is a spatial ability? Well, you should have read the "Catalogue of Forbidden Books of Magic", which is similar to the ability of the Discipline Inspector Shirai Kuroko in it. In addition, it is similar to the teleportation skills of the magicians in the online games, and the ability of the protagonist in the movie "Teleporter" - as long as he sees a certain place, he can teleport himself or something to it, ignoring the physical barrier in between.
Only with this ability can we safely travel to another shijie through this wormhole with a diameter smaller than our own body size.
In addition, there are some special spatial abilities who seem to have the physique to attract wormholes after awakening. Those wormhole entrances located in our shijie will generally appear next to them, so these people are often called 'wormhole generators'......
By the way, I awakened the spatial ability three months ago, but I haven't really crossed over yet, and I've only read about it from the file. β
Speaking of this, Ma Tong seemed to stick out his tongue a little embarrassed.
ββ¦β¦ Ahem, let's be honest, I'm the kind of person who has the physique to attract wormholes, so this wormhole was suddenly born around me. And one of the main tasks of our organization is also to recruit people who have the ability to pass through the wormhole, to rescue those who are looking forward to returning home, and at the same time destroy those dangerous wormholes to prevent something terrible from running out of them, threatening the stability and unity of today's society......"
Cai Rong pointed to the wormhole suspended in the air, and then added, the serious expression on her face seemed to be very incongruous with her cute appearance.
ββ¦β¦ All right...... Since you claim to be a rescue team that helps the traversers, that is, there is also a traverser behind this hole? weishenme, why don't you get this man out? Or is he saved? β
Wang Qiu scratched his hair and pointed to the wormhole that Cai Rong took out and asked rhetorically, while Cai Rong showed a wry smile.
ββ¦β¦ Because he doesn't need us to rescue anymore...... Well, just look at this. β
I saw her take out her mobile phone from her pocket, call up a video, and then leaned over to Wang Qiu's nose and pressed the play button......
Then, on the big screen of the mobile phone, a dark and deep cavern appeared, with huge stalagmites, stone pillars and stalactites, columns of water dripping from the roof of the cave, and a babbling underground stream.
And the closest to the camera is a distorted human remains, with a broken stomach and bloody flesh!
ββAlthough the pixel level of the mobile phone seems to be relatively low, and the lighting of the shooting environment is not very good, so that the picture is very blurry, and it is impossible to even identify the gender of the deceased, but it still makes Wang Qiu almost vomit when he sees it for a while! β¦,
In addition, from the tattered camouflage uniform on the corpse and the sneakers on the soles of the feet, as well as the motorcycle helmet thrown aside, it can be seen that this unlucky guy who unfortunately lost the beast kiss should probably come from us, Shijie's traverser.
ββ¦β¦ Alas, the luck of this traverser was so bad that he actually broke into the dragon's lair without dying! What's even more unfortunate is that almost at the same time as this wormhole appeared, he was bitten to death by the dragon, so that I couldn't save it even if I was saved here......"
Cai Rong said with an unusually ugly face, obviously feeling uncomfortable with the bloody hunting scene in the picture, "...... Later, I waited until the dragon left, and I dared to travel over to check the situation, and it turned out that the unfortunate bastard had long since died too much to die, and the scene of death was so bloody and curious that I barely held on for a while and couldn't stand it anymore, so I had to quickly cross back again. β
Speaking of this, Cai Rong sighed helplessly, "...... As for the corpse of the traverser, it can only go with him. β
ββ¦β¦ Then, the dragon egg from before, could it be ......" Wang Qiu immediately thought of the red lizard that was making trouble in the Heavenly Palace at home just now.
ββ¦β¦ That's right, but definitely not me who brought this trouble, but it fell out of the hole on its own! β
Cai Rong shrugged her shoulders with a stinky little face, "...... Generally speaking, there are some differences in the speed of time on both sides of the space-time gate, so it will automatically form some kind of diaphragm that cannot be explained by science today, turning the wormhole into a kind of one-way street.
It's relatively easy to throw objects directly into the wormhole from our shijie, which is also the truth behind some mysterious disappearances. And if you want to send something from the other world, you will be hindered by something that is difficult to break through, unless it comes from our shijie in the first placeβsuch as the traverser and his belongings; Or let us, who have mastered the ability of spatial teleportation, act as postmen to break through the barriers of time and space.
But the problem is that if the traverser succeeds in surviving the moment when the wormhole appears, but unfortunately dies unexpectedly before returning to our shijie, then the wormhole will have all kinds of disorders in the period from the time the traverser dies to the end of the final collapse. Sometimes there will be a brief period of unhindered communication - and this dragon egg fell out of that gap.
And when I found out about this situation and wanted to stuff it back, the nature of this wormhole changed again, and it seemed to be blocked. However, my spatial ability can only be used once a day, and the next time I can recover my ability will have to wait until tomorrow, and I don't have time to get the dragon egg back before the wormhole collapses, and I don't know what to do with this egg, so I hurriedly came to your sister to find a way - she is currently the most powerful space ability in my country, and according to the announcement on the message board on the unit's website, your sister should return to China this morning. β
Speaking of this, she couldn't help but glance at Wang Qiu, but Wang Qiu didn't realize it, just held Cai Rong's mobile phone tightly and watched the video over and over again. It wasn't until there was an awkward moment of silence between the three of them that he raised his head again and asked.
ββ¦β¦ So, can you speculate on how long this wormhole can last now? β
ββ¦β¦ Well, I guess it can last for two or three hours! Cai Rong thought for a while and replied, "...... How? Could it be that you still have thoughts about that shijie? β
ββ¦β¦ Of course there are ideas! It's the Dragon's Cave, the legendary repository of all artifacts and treasures! β
Wang Qiu immediately shouted, "...... Fearless warriors embark on a quest to defeat dragons, save princesses, and claim treasures...... This is the most traditional RPG game mode! Didn't you look around the cave for piles of gold, silver, and precious stones? ββ¦,
ββ¦β¦ Oops, I just vomited at the corpse at that time......"
Cai Rong suddenly realized, and then slapped her hands suddenly, with a look of remorse on her face, "...... It's a pity that I've used up my spatial abilities today, and I can't traverse them again...... Hey, Sister Ma Tong, can you travel back in time today and try to explore the treasure? β
ββ¦β¦ My spatial ability is worse than yours, it only happens once every three days, and I've already used it up in practice. Senior Sister Ma Tong sighed and spread her hands, "...... However, whether we can travel through the past or not, let's scout first, so that we can have a spectrum in our hearts. β
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
The so-called reconnaissance is to find a stick that is long enough, and then like fishing, turn on the photography function of Ma Tong's mobile phone, hang the end of the stick with a rope, and insert Zuihou into the wormhole, and then take it out after a while to see what is captured in the mobile phone.
Wang Qiu originally wanted to suggest that they directly put the computer camera in, anyway, the lead is long enough, and the price of the camera is much cheaper than the mobile phone, even if it is damaged, it will not be so distressing. But Cai Rong shook her head and explained that due to the different time flow rates on both sides of the wormhole, the electrical signal could not be transmitted normally, so if the camera was plugged in, the result would only be a black screen......
In short, the results of the reconnaissance were neither good nor bad - in the direction where the wormhole was facing was indeed a pile of metal objects scattered on the ground, including a magnificently shaped broadsword, but whether it was gold and silver or other precious metals, because the light was too dim, it was not clear.
Luckily, the cavern was empty, and the dragon didn't seem to be at home.
This information made the two women's hearts itch suddenly-most women like dragons like gold-but they were helpless because their abilities were exhausted, and if they waited for Wang Yao's predecessors and Professor Yang to come back, this wormhole might also reach its lifespan.
ββ¦β¦ Ah, looking at so many things that are suspected of being treasures right in front of me, but I can't do it, it really makes people's hearts feel like ants crawling! β
Cai Rong held her head with both hands and let out an extremely unwilling scream, seeing that she was about to roll around on the floor to sell cuteness, "...... Beating dogs is all caused by your mouths and tongues! If I didn't know anything all along, I'm afraid that people's hearts wouldn't be so painful! Seeing so much treasure pass by me, my heart is about to break! Say! How are you going to compensate me for this broken girl's heart!! β
Although the tone seemed to be very intense, deep down, Cai Rong actually knew that she was making trouble and playing tricks, so she didn't expect to get any response that made her happy.
Immediately after, however, she heard an unexpected answer.
ββ¦β¦ Hehe, if you don't have the ability to cross today, it doesn't mean that I don't have either! β
Wang Qiu picked up a Supor brand stainless steel soup pot from the side of the stove, carefully buckled it on his head, and found the Galanz brand pressure cooker lid and Yangjiang Shibazi brand kitchen knife used when slaying the dragon just now, and then showed a smile on his face, "...... Let's go to the Dragon Cave together! Look at the moves! β
- I don't know whether to say whether he is reckless or unscrupulous, I saw Wang Qiu put his arm around Cai Rong's shoulder with one hand and Ma Tong's waist with the other, and then rushed to the wormhole with an arrow step, and then violently launched the ability of spatial teleportation, aiming at the other end of the wormhole!
Generally speaking, as long as you are a little more sensible, you should not do such a reckless stupid thing, but ...... In the face of interests, those who desperately rush to jump off the cliff are all so-called smart people.
I have to admit that in many cases, some people will lose their minds because of some temptations, such as treasure, treasure and treasure.
The next moment, the figures of Wang Qiu, Cai Rong and Ma Tong appeared in a dark cave
