Chapter 34 of the Strange Rock Island Arc: The Calamity Dragon
After the four of us walked through the training ground, armory, treasure room, bath, etc., we finally came to the deepest part of this imperial palace, but we didn't expect that this would be a cemetery.
"Why is there a cemetery at the end?" I asked, puzzled.
"I think the girl who was burned to death might be buried here too!" Shan Rou said.
......
"For what, for what, because this strange totem on my right arm is about to kill me? What did I do wrong? I'm not dead! Mother, brother, and mine are still at home waiting for me...... I can't die! I can't ......" came a desolate voice from the cemetery.
"I don't want to do that either...... I really don't want to be like that...... Ah......h
"Who are you? Do you know about this totem?" Can you tell me?" Shan Rou shouted loudly.
"You're finally here, I've been waiting for you for a long time. "A spirit floated out of the cemetery.
"Who are you?" asked Shan Rou.
"My name is Jia Gu, to be precise, I should be the owner here. Jia Gu said.
"Jia Gu, you are the builder of this rugged Moran Imperial Palace, it turns out that you are dead!" I said in surprise.
"I've been waiting here for countless years, and today a host of the Calamity Dragon has arrived alive...... Friend, I can finally help you solve this case that has been unjust for tens of billions of years. Jia Gu said.
"Is it about this totem?" can you tell me what this totem is about?" Shan Rou asked.
"The totem on your arm is a friend of mine, his name is Moga. Jia Gu said.
"Moga, you mean the black dragon that can bring disaster. Na Lan Lin said.
"Na Lan Lin, do you know what to do?" I asked.
"Moga, he is also a child of the Ancient Dragon Clan's Ancient Dragon Venerable. However, it is dark by nature, and it is not liked by people since he was a child, and some big and small disasters or bad things will happen everywhere it goes, and then he has a new name - the dragon of calamity. If I remember correctly, when Moga was nine years old, he should have been killed by his father, the Ancient Dragon Venerable. Na Lan Lin said.
"That's what everybody thinks...... But they were all wrong...... Mojia, you died too unjustly......" Jia Gu said loudly.
"Calamity Dragon, does it really bring disaster?" asked Shan Rou, frowning.
"That's all wishful thinking on their part! Those disasters were not brought by Moga, and those disasters would have happened without Moga, but Moga would always have come there before they happened. Jia Gu said.
"You mean that Moga doesn't bring disaster, but predicts it!" I said.
"Mogata is only nine years old, it doesn't know anything, and it has been abandoned by its father and by its family by this world. Jia Gu said.
"And what's going on with this totem?" Shan Rou asked.
"Moga is dead, but Moga's grievances cannot just die with it! Moga wanted someone to help it clear its name, but the hosts all died, and none of them understood what was going on. Jia Gu said.
"But will it kill more people?" said Indigo.
"Those who are chosen by Moga are those whom Moga foresees calamity or bad luck. Jia Gu said.
"But...... Did it ever think that some of what it had foreseen was happening because of it? Like the girl who was burned to death, her disaster was burned alive, but wasn't it because of the totem on her arm?"
"This ......" Jia Gu was stunned for a moment.
"Did they die because of me...... Am I wrong...... Ah......h
"In other words, disasters will happen to me, but it will be a matter of time. Shan Rou said.
"Yes. Jia Gu said.
"Then I know. Shan Rou said depressedly.
"That...... Is there a way to solve or eliminate this disaster?" indigo asked.
"No matter what natural disasters and man-made disasters are, but I believe that things are determined by man, as long as we work together to face it, there are no disasters and difficulties that cannot be overcome, don't you be scared of yourself. I said with a smile.
"I'm sorry, you are my last host, if you can live without any accidents in your life, then I can leave this world with peace of mind...... I hope it's all my fault......" the muffled voice said.
"Sister, with me by your side, you won't be fine!" Indigo took Shan Rou's hand and said firmly.
"Now that it's over, let's get out of here. Zhao Wei obviously didn't like the gloomy environment of the cemetery.
However, just when we were about to leave here, an accident happened, but it was not Shan Rou's but me and Zhao only, and the magician sent by the guild didn't know where Lu Dao got the news, and the entire Rugged Moran Imperial Palace was surrounded by water.
......
"The people inside, you're already surrounded, if you don't want to die, come out and surrender......" the magician outside shouted, but it sounded a bit like the police catching terrorists on TV.
"Shengtian, what should I do?" Zhao said fearfully.
"They won't be able to enter for a while, and the maze and mechanism in front of the palace can hold them back for a while. I said.
"Brother Tiansheng, the only sister, my sister and I want to go out and drag them down, you want to get out of here. Indigo said and left with Shan Rou.
"Shengtian, how do we get out of here?" Zhao Wei asked.
"Senior Jia Gu, does this palace have a back door?" I asked.
"The back door is there, but it's ......," Jia Gu said hesitantly.
"What's wrong?" I asked.
"There is an undersea tunnel outside the back door, and at the end of the tunnel is the ...... that leads to the dimensional gate," Jia Gu said.
"What is that?" I asked, puzzled.
"As the name suggests, it is a gateway to another dimension, which is another dimension parallel to the current dimensional realm, and there may be mortal ......dangers everywhere there," Jia Gu said.
"Has anyone been?" I asked.
"No, some of them are just old legends...... Jia Gu said.
"Senior Jia Gu, take us there. I said.
"Are you really going?" Jia Gu asked.
"Now that the magicians have surrounded the Imperial Palace, we will be sent to death if we go out, and it is impossible for me to fight against such a large army of magicians with my strength. But no one has ever entered this so-called extradimensional dimension, and everything inside is unknown. Although it may be more dangerous than the outside, at least there is a glimmer of life. I said.
"Alright, you guys come with me. Jia Gu said.
Under Jia Gu's guidance, we returned to the treasure room and took out the key in the secret compartment, and then entered the secret passage of the cemetery to the back door, which opened a narrow nautical tunnel.
The tunnel was made of a glass-like material, so you could see the scenery outside, but it was built in the deepest part of the Seven Realms Sea, so I didn't see any pretty fish swimming.
"Ahead, that's the dimensional gate. After walking for a long time, Jia Gu suddenly stopped in one place and pointed to the silver-white gate in front of him and said.
"Thank you, thank you for showing me the way. I said with a smile.
"I'll have to take you here, and the rest of the road is up to you, and if you make it out alive, remember to come and tell me what's inside. After Jia Gu finished speaking, he turned around and floated away.
"Only, we're going on an adventure. I said with a smile.
"As long as you're here, I'm not afraid of anything!" Zhao Weiwei said with a smile.
Together, we pushed open the mysterious door, and an eerie light burst out...... What is inside? No one knew the Tao before, and no one wanted to know about it...... Will I be the first one? Will we come out of it alive?
