Chapter 85: I Am a Prophet! (6200)
Just when the King of the Mountain was communicating with the Extreme Wind Dragon King on the Orbital Dragon Island.
Terra, Imperial Southridge.
Ian is also dealing with dragons.
Recently, Theo has repaired his dragon's nest, and the mountain scenery around Lone Flame Peak has changed.
Originally, the surrounding area of Lone Flame Peak was full of clouds, and thunder would often fall on the top of the mountain, shining with blazing light, so the mountain people called it Lone Flame.
But now, layers of white mist permeate the perimeter of the mountaintops, like light gray brushstrokes painted in ink paintings, outlining the rudiments of a whirlpool above the Lone Flame Peak, and the light blue arc of electricity flows through the clouds, gathering the power of nature, gently guiding the thunder into the mountain peak and turning it into energy.
You can see that on the top of the mountain, one or two visible psionic light streaks light up from time to time, and they crisscross the mountain, and finally disappear in the core of the rock formation.
Lone Flame Peak had been stripped of its surface due to the recent storms of the past decade or so, leaving it with the strongest rock structures, which had been visibly transformed into dragons' lair.
Ian walked halfway up the Lone Flame Peak, and he observed with interest the renovated strategic location inside the mountain, where Theo had buried many massive structures, like the bullet-shaped metal bulge of the table in front of Ian, which was a massive duct vent in the ground.
Outside, a milky white, faintly glowing steam gushes out from the inside of the copper pipes, flowing straight into the clouds on the top of the mountain, adding to the reuse of energy.
With the dragon's nest as the center, a small essentia rich area will be formed, and after a few years, many sublimation plants will grow on Xio's dragon's nest, and even extremely special sublimation psionic plants related to its true dragon properties.
The technology of the true dragon is far beyond the imagination of many people, and many people who do not know the origin of the power of the true dragon will regard the ignorance of the dragon and the savagery of the half-dragon as the nature of the dragon.
But in fact, each true dragon has extremely unfathomable technology and wisdom, and even the flesh and blood of the fifth-generation true dragon like Xi'ou, conceived by his parents, is also the essence of the highest memory.
Although he did not inherit the wisdom held by his mother, Xi'o has mastered a lot of his years of learning in the dragon's lair.
"Maybe you'll be able to kidnap Theo to the Alchemy Workshop next time?" Adalbert had always wanted to see what was going on with the real dragon."
With this in mind, Ian arrived at the door of Theo's Dragon's Lair.
Compared to the first time, this time the gate of the dragon's lair was closed by a metal gate, and there were two golden crystals in the doorway, flashing with blazing light.
As soon as Ian was illuminated by this light, the door opened automatically - he was the highest-ranking guest on the register, and the Dragon's Lair naturally would not turn the boy away.
By the way, the Mountain King's authority is rather special, and although it is also the highest level, it will emit a powerful sound that borders on an alarm, alerting a certain true dragon that his mother is coming.
Ian came over this time to see how Sheo's recovery was going.
Xio's body needs to eat a lot of sublimated metals and special biomass for the redevelopment of Xio's body, and these Mountain Kings are responsible for some of it, but as Xio's lord and temporary guardian (the Mountain King pleases), Ian is naturally also responsible.
It is easy to say that the sublimation metal can be supplied by the mountain people, but it is better to say that the mountain people are too accustomed to worshiping a real dragon.
There are even many tribes who were moved to tears when they knew that they could actually serve the true dragon, and repeatedly refused Ian's payment, and Ian could only force it to give it.
Money has to be forcibly stuffed, what is this called.jpg
Of course, this is actually the benefit of Ian High Prestige...... Recently, under Ian's heavy-handed rectification, all the mountain tribes that had thrown themselves into the Flame Land have been forcibly split up and centralized, and their original wealth and land have been divided by Ian and other mountain tribes who support the empire.
Ian also brought a large number of modern work tools and alchemy artifacts to the mountain people, cheap pyroxene lamps replaced the original lamp oil, and roads began to be paved between the tribes, which brought great importance to the exchange of goods and Ian's management
Convenient.
With these benefits, as well as the increasingly elite Magnetic Storm Armor in Ian's hands, all the mountain people were well managed.
Occasionally, if you don't want to be managed, then use a stick to kill a few people, and the itchy idiot will return to honesty again.
Some of them, typical chiefs who had a problem with Ian, were even captured and paraded through the streets, lounging in front of each tribe before being executed.
While it may sound like a reign of violent terror, it must be explained here: in this world of sublimators, if you don't show your violent terror, others will teach you what violent terror is.
Wouldn't anyone really think that Huairou and morality can control a group of people whose political system is still in the tribal stage and has a sublimation heritage, right? That's not naivety, it's stupidity.
And those defeated mountain people who were centrally managed, Ian also knew very well that most of them were ordinary people.
However, he would rather make his former enemies uncomfortable than make his own mountain people uncomfortable.
However, it was not a big problem, Ian gathered these people around the swamp area in the northwest of the Bison Mountains, carried out a swamp reclamation, tried to cultivate the raw materials of the crystallization of the elements on a large scale, Xiaojing mushrooms,—— he would provide plenty of food and tools, and the housing and utilities on the land were rudimentary, but they definitely did not cut corners, and they were very solid.
Moreover, because these people are defeated and know who they are, Ian has many experimental techniques and management methods that can be used on this group of people who do not and dare not resist.
Perhaps, they were the first to become Ian's true people.
Most importantly, Ian didn't deprive them of their sublimation inheritance, just didn't give them the wealth to become sublimators.
For the mountain people, this is nothing more than a stripped of all past wealth, but the glory remains, and the dragon god messenger promises that all their sins will be zeroed, and all accumulation will begin anew.
Reasonable punishment is almost a gift.
In short, the new year has arrived, and the mountain people have ushered in a more promising day, and they willingly worship the son of the king of the mountain, the true dragon that can bring them peace.
And Theo didn't do nothing.
In addition to forging the nest, he also helped Roland and his group of dwarves who were surveying the terrain around the mouth of the gorge - Theo was not originally the kind of high-minded character, and when he heard Roland's call for help, he would take action.
As a result, Theo burned three jungles, dug up four small hills, ate an entire herd of pine cones and wild boars, drove away a large number of monsters and beasts, and even dug a fifty-meter-deep pit where Roland casually said, "The foundation of this place can be dug a little deeper."
Truth be told, as an outsider who had never seen a dragon, Roland was in awe of Theo's opinion - the gorge that he had planned to take months to complete the initial exploration was accelerated to the point that it could be completed by the end of the month with the power of the real dragon.
Why?
The woods were burned, the hills were bulldozed, the wild beasts were gone, and the complex terrain was flattened...... If this exploration takes time, then he must be cheating on his salary!
This is the power of the real dragon, it's terrifying, a whole engineering team can't compare to it. This is the sentiment expressed by Roland's dwarven brother, and he refers to the workload of Yixio for a month as a dragon force, as a way to evaluate the efficiency of the major engineering teams he knows.
Now Sheio has become a unit of measurement.
From this point alone, Ian can actually deduce that Xi'o's recent recovery must be quite good, and because he has recovered very well, he uses a little strength desperately, just like a blind man who goes out to enjoy the scenery every day after recovering his eyes, and a deaf person listens to the original soundtrack every day after recovering his hearing.
In that case, Ian has to come up with a fresh idea for Theo......
According to the information he knew in the Steel Dragon's Nest, the true power of the True Dragon could only be fully manifested at the fourth energy level.
For the true dragon of the Tinder, this power is the embodiment of the truly powerful civilization power in the Tinder, but the fifth generation of Xiou
The real dragon seems to be a different model.
"The first ancestors, the true dragons, are obviously, the creators, the direct creations, the tools, and the power they hold is incredible, even the stars can be shattered."
Ian muttered to himself in his heart: "And the second generation, it is likely that the creators have determined the function in advance, and the auxiliary tools conceived by the ancestor true dragon, they present a form between machinery and biology, and their power is also extremely powerful, and it is the first generation and the second generation of true dragons who have joined forces to create the third generation of fire true dragons."
"What happened between the third-generation true dragon and the fourth-generation true dragon, I don't know, and I don't understand either, but the fourth-generation true dragon like the King of the Mountain has been completely lifed, and he can even directly use his body to breed the fifth-generation true dragon, that is, Xio."
"If the King of the Mountain has the power of fire, where did it come from? Even the true dragon does not have so much fire in reserve, and it has already been consumed after giving birth to the third generation of true dragon, and Xi'o does not have the power of fire."
"The Shroud Dragon, an advanced hint from the Silver Chip...... This kind of power is not so much the power of the tinder, but rather the power of the dragon's blood that the true dragon adapts to any environment.
Ian speculated that just as the Terra civilization had been trying to learn from the true dragons, and even, to seize their power, the true dragons were also learning the techniques of the Terra civilization.
The development and sublimation of his own bloodline power has the flavor of a Terra sublimator.
To confirm this suspicion, Ian came here.
"Theo?"
The dragon's lair is located deep in the mountain, but it leads to the entrance, and Ian can see the scene of Theo's real body crawling in the lair in the center of the dragon's lair, and then he knows in his heart: "This is driving a prosthetic body."
Even true dragons are not perfect in everything, the simplest thing is that the real body of the real dragon is too big, and it is very troublesome to do experiments or actions, so the true dragons have developed the technology of prosthetic body with the particularity of their souls, and they have replaced their true body action work.
For example, deep in Theo's dragon's lair, there are several laboratories and rest rooms dedicated to Prosthetic Action. Building this kind of room is not a hassle at all for the dragon, but it can enjoy a lot of convenience and is very cost-effective.
Since the real body is there, sleeping, it proves that Theo's prosthetic body is focusing on doing something very important, Ian did not deliberately wake up the other party's real body, but went to the prosthetic laboratory and knocked on the door: "Theo, something is looking for you."
"Mistaken? Ian, you're here!"
At this moment, an energetic voice can be heard, with a little accent in the lingua franca, with a bit of the taste of the northern people: "Come in, come in, there's something good to show you!"
Ian frowned slightly, he vaguely remembered that the accent of the red-haired elf woman's prosthetic before Theo seemed to be from Canaan Moore, and the accent of the red-haired mountain people was not from the north...... Did He change His body again?
Good stuff, though?
Intrigued, Ian opens the door and walks into Theo's prosthetic lab.
Then he saw a face.
A familiar face.
Ian's own face.
Ian's eyelids lifted slightly, although he had expected it a long time ago, but he was still a little surprised when he really saw it - the red-haired dragon girl was wearing a long white and gold dress, revealing white arms and slender collarbones, and her long hair like flames fell quietly, not like flames, like blood ice, giving a kind of crystal clear ethereal inspiration.
And there is a silver-black dragon scale pendant hanging from the slender neck, which makes the skin even more snow-white.
And the dragon girl's eyes are not as pale blue as Ian's, but as bright as the sun.
Theo was clearly adjusting his prosthetic body, and on the whole, the face he pinched with Ian as a model was a little more cold and ascetic than the face he had previously pinched with Anfa, presumably because Ian gave him the impression that this was the case.
But it may not be - Anfa was originally a very calm person, but he could show Xiou a simple appearance, which can only be said to be born from the heart, even if it is the same face, the essence from the core cannot be hidden.
"How's that, it's not like it!
」
Theo was excitedly looking at a surround mirror, she looked back at Ian, and after looking at the young man's face for a moment, she was a little dejected, "Ah, what's going on...... I feel like I'm pinching it, but when I really see my face, I don't feel like I have the essence at all......
"Without this temperament, it's just just good-looking!"
"Of course." Ian complained, "In addition to my face, you also changed your red hair, elf ears, and contact lenses...... And if I were a woman, I wouldn't be wearing a long dress like this evening dress, at most a white lab robe, or an alchemist's robe."
"If you add too many elements, conflict with each other, or influence each other, naturally it has nothing to do with me, but your own aesthetics."
"yes." After thinking about it, Theo couldn't help but nod approvingly, "Then what do you think of my aesthetics?"
"Your aesthetic is quite similar to that of my former boss."
Ian commented succinctly, and Theo asked curiously, "What? Does he also like pointed ears, or fluorescent pupils? Personally, I like to add some tails and dragon horns, but then I don't look like a human being, and it's hard to walk in the human world, so I can only walk around the mountain people......
"Nope. I'm just talking about red hair."
Ian chatted with Theo about the red-haired Grant Son, and successfully tilted the conversation to another world - Theo actually understands Viscount Grant very well, because dragons are like this.
Soon, though, Ian reconnected the subject: "I don't mind if you use my face as a prosthetic model, everyone else can see it's not me anyway, but ......."
He narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Theo's and his brother-sister faces, and said thoughtfully, "It's better to say that if you can see that it's me, it's a little useful......
"Interesting!
Thinking of this, Ian suddenly became interested, he pointed to his hair and asked Theo, "Can I change the color of my hair?"
"Of course, just adjust it."
Theo shook his head happily, and then his long bright red blood-ice hair turned pure white - although it was slightly different from Ian's hair color, but in general, it was not obvious to ordinary people at a glance.
And, if you want to adjust it, it will quickly be exactly the same.
"What about eye color?" Ian's eyes lit up, and he asked again.
Theo blinked, and then his eyes were the same as Ian's.
Now, from a distance, it really looks like a pair of brothers and sisters.
"Good!"
Ian stood up, and now he was really happy, "Theo, I have a favor that I need your help with!"
"It's going to be okay to help, but if you say it beforehand, I can't learn your usual mannerisms - I can't adapt to your habits!"
Theo wasn't stupid, he had guessed Ian's purpose in the first place...... It's nothing more than letting the dragon use his prosthetic body as a stand-in for him, and this kind of thing has not happened in history, once a king asked his true dragon friend to replace him on the battlefield as a Chinese army to suppress the military heart, and he himself led an elite team of sublimators to raid behind enemy lines.
But this rarely happens...... Because you can let a real dragon disguise you as a stand-in, so is there something that makes the real dragon directly run over the other party? Back then, the disguised king didn't know the identity of the other party's true dragon, thinking that he was just a sublimator with a strong disguise, and the real dragon didn't want to reveal his true identity, so it happened.
For Ian's commission, Theo is naturally willing, but if he wants to learn Ian's living habits, it won't work, this person is too rolly, he works and studies all day long, even if he acts, he is very tired, and he definitely can't learn!
"No, I don't."
Ian shook his head slightly, "I don't need you to disguise my identity for a short time, and even if there is, you just need to stay in the lab, pretend to be doing experiments, and show up occasionally."
and will not be recognized."
"As for the work, I'll definitely tell Scott to do it in advance, just when I'm in the lab, it's not a hassle at all."
"No problem."
Theo readily agreed, not finding it difficult—on the other hand, he was more interested in what Ian needed to leave the territory for, "But you've been busy in the last few years, right? Do you really have time to go out? I can just help you disguise it, but I can't really do it for you."
Ian shook his head slightly, "I don't know exactly what it is, but I know there will be. If nothing else, Canaan Moore, if something happens over there, I'm going to go."
"That's what I said."
Theo wondered, "How can it be like the prophet, it's all speculation, and yet so sure......
"Indeed, I am a prophet." Ian shrugged, and Theo shook his head, "I know, prophet of thunder...... Wait, you weren't kidding?!
True Dragon's perception of lies and truth is far better than that of ordinary people, and she originally thought that Ian was just joking, but then realized that what Ian had just said was honest and outspoken.
This shocked her.
- Prophet, this is a prophet! It is rarer than a real dragon, there are not many in the entire Terra Continent, and even the four major orthodox religions cannot guarantee a stable 100% inheritance of prophets!
I actually have one in front of me?!
"yes."
The dragon girl looked at the smiling young man in front of her in shock, and Ian calmly said, "I am a prophet - that's why I have been able to do so many incredible things and achieve such incredible things today."
"There are still many people who don't know this, you are the first few."
Ian slowed his tone as he met Theo's eyes, giving him time to think, "The reason I'm telling you now is because I'm planning to gradually release the rumors that I'm a prophet in recent times, and you, I happen to foresee a little bit of the future."
"Theo, how much do you know, Shvarade Dragon?"
"Prophet...... The Dragon of the Void ......"
Theo's surprised expression hadn't completely subsided, and she muttered to herself, "No wonder, no wonder you're walking so fast in the subspace labyrinth as if you had predicted the future...... Oh, you do know the future!"
"No wonder, I haven't been hiding from you since the beginning, and Anfa probably does too, right? I said why have you always been so calm, even if you are chased and killed, you are not afraid at all, it turns out that you already knew that I and An *** shot!"
"What a mistake! I have a prophetic friend!"
Although he thought about it a lot, Theo's last thought was still fixed, yes, on—being able to be friends with the Prophet was also an unprecedented experience for the true dragon.
And her opinion of the Void Dragon is very vague: "I only heard a few + years ago, when I was still resting in the dragon's lair, when my mother was in contact with Dragon Island, that the Void Dragon Tianyu Ramilton had passed away, and there was no descendant and successor, and the inheritance gap he left behind needed to be recovered by the surrounding true dragons."
"At first, my mother was reluctant to go to take care of me, and I didn't want him to delay my work for me, so I talked to my mother for a while before he set out to recover. Because of that, I remember it very well."
"Inheritance?"
Hearing this, Ian couldn't help but frown.
The Void Dragon may be the name of the Void Dragon on the side of the True Dragon, or the name of the Void Dragon of that generation...... It seems that this true dragon has existed for a long time, but no one has inherited it?
Could it be that the power obtained by the fifth generation of true dragons after achieving the fourth energy level is related to this inheritance of the previous generation?
It doesn't feel like ...... either. In other words, it shouldn't be completely related, the inheritance must have something to do with the power of the fifth and even the fourth generation of true dragons, but it is not the whole story.
For some reason, Ian's mind suddenly appeared with the dark golden dragon he had seen on the way to the Spiritual Calamity.
Such a true dragon that is so powerful that it can even break through the gravitational pull of the solar system and go to the starry sky of the universe with its own strength...... Suppose He is a new generation of true dragons.
Whose power, then, did he inherit?
