Chapter 23: The Radiance of the Sun

Dylan took one hand and looked at the statue closely, it looked familiar.

Antlers, the body of a serpent, wings, and a crown on his head. The craftsmanship is exquisite, lifelike, as if it could be resurrected at any moment.

A winged dragon. Looking at the form of this thing, it looks like Ying Long who helped the Yellow Emperor kill Chi You. When the statue is turned over, there is a string of small characters (kukulcan) engraved underneath, which translates to kukulcan.

Kukulkan, it turned out to be the god Quetzalcoatl!

The images of Quetzalcoatl and Huaxia Yinglong are almost identical, and Dylan almost admits his mistake. Holding the statue of Quetzalcoatl and observing it carefully for a while, I don't know if it was an illusion, Quetzalcoatl's snake head seemed to twist towards Dylan's side. Dylan wiped his eyes, opened them again, and saw that the body of the Quetzalcoatl statue had completely changed positions.

He turned his head, two eyes the size of soybeans, as if they were looking at Dylan. At the moment when the eyes of the Quetzalcoatl statue met Dylan's eyes. The statue really moved, and I saw the statue float up from Dylan's hand, and the whole exuded a dim halo, and then rushed into Dylan's eyebrows with a "whoosh".

"Boom!"

Heaven and earth first opened, and there was chaos.

There was no wind, no thunder, no light, no shadow, only the innate chaotic qi, floating in the gray void. I don't know how many years have passed, and from the chaos of qi, many innate beings have been bred, and they have different images, but they all have innate supernatural powers.

They were born of heaven and earth, and they had authority as soon as they were born.

As soon as they appeared, they were brilliant and shining on the world. Some of them were filled with yin qi and fell into the depths of a world, turning the whole world into a dead sea. Some are 100 feet tall, and some are just a phantom. Whatever form they may be, it is undeniable that they are inherently divine.

In the void, some choose to create the world, and some choose to travel far. The chaotic void became lively, and it was in this environment that I was born.

············

The next evening, the sun had not yet set.

Dylan snapped his eyes open, and he realized that he had been sitting in a chair all night.

He didn't rush to his feet, carefully recalling the experience in his dream last night. In the dream, as a natural deity and in authority, he was worshipped by all spirits and taken from him. In his dreams, he possessed boundless divine power, and the wind, thunder, rain, and water came at a moment's notice.

Everything in the dream was so real and beautiful, but unfortunately it was just a dream. The dream passed, leaving only a little bit of residual ability.

Dylan closed his eyes and tried to spread his spirit outward, and he could feel that the world was not the same as it was yesterday. The air is filled with all kinds of colored points of light and inexplicable traces, which contain the basic elements that make up the world, earth, water, fire, wind, light, darkness, and even sound waves and waves.

At this time, his world is no longer a flat world, not only with sound images, but also with sound waves, energy, and air currents, all of which become clearly visible.

I remember that in his dream, he was incarnated as Quetzalcoatl, and once wandered through the void, exploring the mysteries of the universe. He knows that there are infinite universes, and that the universe we live in is only one of many. Each universe is very different, and ordinary beings will never know the reality of the world. Not to mention, step out of your own universe to see the wider world.

In legend, Quetzalcoatl is a god commonly worshipped in Mesoamerican civilizations, generally depicted as a feathered serpent. It was first seen in the Olmec civilization and later by the Aztecs as Ketsalkoatl and the Mayans as Kukulcan.

Quetzalcoatl's abilities are varied, he dominates the Morning Star, invents books, legislates, and brings corn to humans. and governs the wind and rain, and the power of the growth of all things. In addition to this, Quetzalcoatl also represents death and rebirth, and is the protector of the priests.

It's a pity that the main thing, regarding the divine power of death, rebirth and manipulation of all things, Dylan did not get it. Only a part of this statue remains, Quetzalcoatl's control of the sun.

"In other words, the sun doesn't hurt me now. ”

After savoring it for a while, after the feeling of divine power circulating in the body in the dream. Dylan opened his eyes, and if he looked closely, he could see a glimmer of golden brilliance in his pupils.

He walked to the window, brushed it, and opened the curtains. The sun shone on my body, and sure enough, I didn't feel any discomfort. It's like being reborn into a human body.

No!

It's a better feeling than it was when I was a human before. The body is not defective, which means that it can absorb the heat of the sun unscrupulously. Dylan opened the window and felt the feeling of being surrounded by sunlight.

The sun seemed to come to life, and quickly pounced on him, and immediately enveloped him.

At this point, sunlight really becomes an energy that can be directly absorbed. He could feel that every drop of blood, every bone, and every cell in his body was greedily absorbing sunlight. Now he is like an old blood clan who has been hungry and thirsty for hundreds of years, hugging a little virgin who has just turned 17 years old, and he has to suck his fill first no matter what.

The warm sunlight was inhaled into the body like substance, making the whole body warm, and this feeling made Dylan unconsciously open his two bat wings. The originally dark bat wings have also undergone great changes under the sunlight. On the bat's wings, runes of unknown meaning appeared. These mysterious golden runes enhance the speed of sunlight absorption, and because the light energy is too dense, a layer of light flame gradually attaches to the runes.

It's approaching winter now, and the sun shouldn't be too hot. However, if one looks down from the sky, one can see a visible pillar of light breaking through the clouds and shining from the sky on the windows of the hotel. Dylan stood by the window, his hands and batwings outstretched, as if embracing the endless sunshine in his arms.

The scorching divine fire itself ignited, like a god and a saint!

The sun's energy surged in and gradually surrounded the hotel, so that Maria, who had been sleeping in the basement of the hotel, also saw the aggressiveness of the sun. Even in the coffin in the basement, she felt like she was in a furnace. This heat made her flustered, and it was difficult to even breathe, and her face, which had always been expressionless, was full of anxious expressions.

"Why is it so hot, what happened? Could it be that someone from the Holy See has found it?"

At the time of the crisis, Maria thought that Dylan was still on it, and if the clergy of the Holy See called in, Dylan would be in danger now. She remembered the task that Master Osborne had assigned her when she left the colony·····

Mission 1: Protect the target and return to the Dark Council intact.

Task 2: If the target intends to escape, or encounters any accident that causes him to go missing, he should immediately contact his superiors and recover him.

Task 3: In case of any force majeure, the target is out of control, and any means are allowed to be used, and if necessary, they will be killed on the spot.

I don't know what's going on, but I'm sure to confirm the status of the mission objective as soon as possible.

Thinking of this, Maria endured the discomfort brought by the sun. He crawled out of the coffin and staggered upstairs. Unlike other Bloodlines, Dylan likes to live in the rooms on the top floor.

Besides, on Dylan's side, the sun's energy is constantly absorbed by him. But after the sunlight enters the body, it is no longer simply converted into blood energy. In other words, the blood energy he transformed was completely different from the blood energy of other blood clans.

Some of this scorching energy is converted into blood energy in time, producing blood essence and returning to the heart. And some of them don't have time to be transformed, and they flow directly in the veins of the body. Blood energy, blood essence, and every part of the body were washed away by the sun's energy. All harmful substances in the body are cleaned out.

It's a radical change.

The sun was setting, and I felt that the energy in my body was already overflowing. Dylan retracted his batwing and closed the curtains. He walked over to the mirror in the room and looked at his new image. Unlike his previous pale complexion, he now looked as if he had been soaked in milk, and his skin shone with a sparkling glow.

Looking at it from afar in the sunlight, it really looks like a golden statue of a god that has become a real person.

Bang!

After a loud bang, the door to Dylan's room fell to the floor.

Maria made it to the second floor and saw Dylan standing in front of a mirror.

Dylan looked at Maria, whose face was flushed and ready to make a big move. He raised his eyebrows and said, "You seem to have a little more force to knock on the door·······
