Chapter 25 The Roots of the World
What is completeness?
What is the way home?
The Maiden Battle Mage didn't have a clear explanation for this, because she couldn't, and that's all she knew, and for more information, she might have to ask the disciples of the Battle Dynasty and the legendary Battle Commander who always wore black armor. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"What is the method of entering the third layer of the Dragon Road?" Caesar asked as he looked at the girl.
"Just follow this grassland under our feet, all the way to the end. The girl closed her eyes and said tiredly and with some relief, "The inner space of the Dragon Dao is no longer so stable, so the entrance to the third layer has been opened, and it is in the deepest part of the ancient grassland. ”
This is followed by a period of adjustment and digestion.
The boys and girls of the empire did not continue to meet and discuss, but rested and recuperated while silently digesting and reflecting on the information they had received from the battle mage girl.
Although the amount of information is not large, it is so deep that it seems to be able to suck the soul away, and the world in everyone's minds has undergone some changes.
Including Caesar, the team members suddenly found themselves in a world that could not be summarized in a few words. It turns out that the current situation of separation between the north and the south caused by the invasion of the battle mage a hundred years ago is only the surface, and there are some more magnificent but vague historical outlines hidden behind it.
"Dragon, Dragon......" Caesar sat on the grass, closed his eyes and recuperated, and quietly muttered the name Dragonway in his heart.
I learned a lot of things from the mouth of the girl battle mage, such as the more accurate time of the birth of the dragon road, the special thing about the dragon path this time is the instability of the internal space, and the purpose of the battle mage is to come here for "completeness" and "return" - although I don't understand the meaning of this.
What can also be speculated at the moment is that it is a monster that resembles a dragon. It should be the same as the battle mage, and it is also coming towards the third layer of the Dragon Path.
Caesar also thought about the possibility that the monster might come for Hughes, but if he thought about it, if the monster really came only for Hughes, there was no reason to delay it until now.
When Hughes was in the imperial capital. It should have a chance too.
Hughes should be somewhere in the grassland now, and Caesar and his companions will of course look for it after the repairs are finished, but Caesar is not really in a hurry.
Some indescribable feeling told him that Hughes wasn't that easy to die, and there was no need to worry too much about causing him to mess up first.
Caesar didn't even think about the girl's words now.
He recalled a conversation he had with Phoenix, and remembered that he asked Phoenix what kind of existence Long Dao was.
Phoenix gave a mysterious and vague answer at the time, she said that the dragon path is the root of this world.
The roots of the world. What do you mean?
Dragon Road was born at the end of the Civil War a hundred years ago, since it was born after the existence of the world, how can it be called the root and origin of the world?
Or is Dragon Dao the root of today's world pattern?
The reason why the situation of the separation of the north and the south was formed a hundred years ago was not entirely because of the tragic war, but also because of the emergence of the mysterious existence of Longdao?
But in today's world, what are the things that are closely related to Dragon Dao?
The dragon-mimic genre of the Battle Mage, and the Dragon Awakening ability of the Wind and Thunder Mage. These two were the first things Caesar thought of. In addition, Caesar heard Nono mention it vaguely once or twice. The artifact of the town clan called "Bamboo Bundle" in the forest clan was actually the harvest of the forest king in the dragon road.
Of course, the dragon-mimic school is a very powerful ability, but among the many abilities mastered by battle mages, the dragon-mimic school is only one of the top, not the only one.
The Dragon Awakening ability is just as powerful, but it is a percentage of the empire's huge population base. Make it an ability to be the icing on the cake, not a strategic necessity. If there is a trade-off between the ability of dragon awakening and strategic airship, the military top brass will not hesitate to choose the latter.
As for the artifact bamboo bundle, it is said to be "Zhen Clan", but under the tremendous pressure of the battle mage. How can a people be saved by a weapon?
If it was really that easy, the dragon clan of a hundred years ago would not have been completely wiped out.
So why is Dragon Dao the root of this world?
Caesar opened his eyes, looked at the blue sky and white clouds, and thought to himself, what is the relationship between the gray armor and the dragon road, the little dragon and the dragon road, and myself and this dragon road?
Caesar lowered his head, touched the little guy lying on his lap, and said softly, "Keep going deeper, and after entering the third layer, will I get the answer?"
Xiaolong looked up at his master and blinked a few times, dazed and cute.
Caesar smiled slightly bitterly, thinking to himself that although this little point had helped him a lot, when had he really answered his own questions and solved his doubts?
"Rest well. Caesar stroked the little one's back and smiled.
The little dragon babbled softly and lazily re-layed.
Caesar took a light breath and thought, "Although there are still many things that are not clear, in any case, the next thing to do is very clear-find a way to reach the third layer of the Dragon Road! Whether it is for this mission or to solve my personal doubts, I just need to keep moving forward." ”
"What is it good to keep moving forward, Caesar, what are you muttering alone?" Long Qiqi didn't know when he came over.
Caesar was too preoccupied with things, but he was taken aback, wiped his forehead and said with a wry smile: "Miss, can you not suddenly get so close?"
"Oh, I've been thinking about the captive's words just now......" Long Qiqi said.
"But it didn't turn out to be of any use, and I couldn't think of anything at all, so I gave up. When I opened my eyes, the first thing I saw was that you were talking to yourself, so I came here. ”
Caesar looked closely at the face of the girl who was close at hand.
I have to say that Long Qiqi is really beautiful, in terms of appearance and temperament, she is actually better looking than Nono, or even better than Phoenix.
Long Qiqi's face was still a little sickly pale, but her breath had basically returned to normal.
And I have to say that Long Qiqi, who got rid of the shadow of the marriage contract, and she who used to be cold and lonely are completely two people, cheerful and optimistic.
For example, now, Caesar looked at the relaxed expression on Long Qiqi's face, frowned slightly, and said, "I said...... Long Qiqi, are you too relaxed?"
"Otherwise?" said Long Qiqi with a grin, "No one is born with a bitter and hateful appearance." People are like that only when they have something in their hearts. As long as it's okay in your heart, it's easy to do anything, isn't it?"
Caesar said helplessly, "But aren't we in an unknown danger......
"I know that, so I'm just taking it easy and not slacking off. Long Qiqi stuck out her tongue a little mischievously, so that Caesar didn't know how to refute it for a while.
"Okay, I won't tease you. Long Qiqi saw Caesar's reaction, and her eyes narrowed slightly, like a pair of crescent moons. Then she restrained her smile, looked at Caesar calmly and earnestly, and whispered, "To be honest, I'm nervous and scared." I've almost died several times in this Dragon Dao trial, and now I'm alive and well, Caesar, and I want to thank you. ”
Caesar said casually: "They are all companions, as they should be." ”
Long Qiqi said with rare seriousness: "Even if it is a companion, I still have to thank you." Thank you, Caesar, for saving my life and allowing me to live in this world. ”
Her face flushed slightly, and she continued, "I'm almost dead, and I've been scared, nervous, and trembling before. But I really feel relaxed now, not only because I'm a bit heartless, but also because I feel ...... No matter how dangerous things are, such as this Dragon Dao trial, as long as I am with you, I am really happy and happy, so happy that I don't feel scared. ”
Caesar opened his mouth, stunned for a moment, and looked at the girl in front of him in a daze, speechless.
Caesar actually knew about Long Qiqi's thoughts. Not only her, but also the red dress, as well as the former Jasmine, Caesar can vaguely feel the girl's love for him.
But this is the first time this has happened, even the brave and bold red who is always dressed in red has never done this.
That's kind of ...... A formal confession?
On such occasions?
Long Qiqi smiled slightly, patted Caesar on the shoulder, and said, "Hey, don't look stupid like a goose, you're about to set off and move on." Don't think about it, I just want to tell you how I feel now, let's work together, complete the mission, and then we all leave this dragon road alive, okay?" )
