Chapter 616: Fate
"The vast majority of life in this world does not have fundamental contradictions."
A familiar voice came from Daniel's side.
Danielle and Adam turned their heads, and saw Morgan, who had just disappeared, coming to their side.
"Morgan!" Daniel's eyes lit up, "Where did you just go?" ”
"I came before you." Morgan looked around and said, "This city was built by my father on the commission of someone else, a city where people and dragons coexist.
Of course, there are not many people and dragons living here now, and the ecology is still very fragile. But in a few years, it will become a very big country.
Its name is called Apulier, the capital of the dragon. ”
"Are these dragons on the friendly side?" Daniel asked.
"The vast majority of races and lives in this world have no fundamental contradictions other than survival. Most of them are caused by the ambitions of the upper echelons, whether it is humans or dragons, it is always a few people who kidnap the majority. Morgan muttered softly.
After a pause, Morgan continued, "They are all at the behest of the Dragon Queen. ”
"The Queen of Dragons?" Adam couldn't help but turn his head to look at Morgan, "Who is that?" ”
"You'll see you later." Morgan Road.
"Speaking of which," Darniele looked around, "what about Dumbledore?" ”
Dumbledore had come in with them, but the man wasn't there.
Soon, while they were wondering, two people fell from the sky not far away.
The appearance of these two people is very interesting, although they look like people, but there are some dragon features on their faces, such as the vertical pupils of a pair of dragons.
They seem to be brothers and look similar, except that one has black hair and the other has white hair.
They have a more pronounced Germanic character.
"That's the Dragon Slayer Magister." Adam lowered his voice as he looked around, "With these two, I've seen no less than four dragon slayer magisters just now. ”
"In a city where dragons and humans coexist, it's not surprising that there is a dragon slayer demon master." Daniel whispered.
"My name is Daniel." The black-haired young man introduced, pointing to the young man beside him, "This is my brother, Eric. ”
"Please come with us, the Queen has been waiting for you for a long time."
With that, they led the group through the street, surrounded by buildings of varying styles, from ancient buildings to modern skyscrapers. These buildings reflect different rays in the sunlight and form a beautiful picture of the city.
Those ancient buildings are very similar to those when Char first went to the Dragon Realm and saw them, and they should be some Sumerian buildings.
This reminded Daniel of the city west of Britannia that he had visited when he had gone to the headquarters of the Magical Society, and that the cities there were like this city.
The cultures of the East and the West meet there, and there is a sense of prosperity as a center of cultural exchange.
But in this city, it's a meeting of man and dragon, magic and technology.
There are also many restaurants, cafes, and shopping malls in the surrounding area, providing an abundance of options for people.
There is a thermonuclear fusion device provided by Tony, and the volcano can also provide energy.
With Tony's robots and the near-limitless amount of energy available here, the people of the city have little to no production and can just do what they love.
The power of technology has allowed people here to live a utopian life.
The population here is surprisingly large for Daniel.
In addition to dragons, Daniel also saw a number of elves and dwarves, and of course most of them humans.
These human beings are dressed very similarly to the people of the earth, and they must have come from the earth.
"Where did all these people come from?" Danielle asked curiously.
Morgan looked around and said, "In the past few decades, there has been no shortage of dragons attacking villages, according to the records of the Magic Association, there are about twenty cases, causing tens of thousands of casualties, and the people of these villages were rescued by the Dragon Queen and then emigrated here.
Many of these orphans made a pact with the dragon, gained the power of the dragon, and became a dragon-slaying magician. ”
"Don't they hate dragons?" Daniel said.
The conversation between them seems to have been overheard by Daniel in front.
He turned his head and said, "Suppose you are a dragon and humans kill all your relatives, will you hate all humans because of this, and intend to kill all humans?" ”
Daniel fell silent.
"The first lesson Her Majesty taught us when she rescued us here was to learn to control our emotions and to let hatred be our motivation rather than be controlled by it. That will be the biggest stumbling block on our path to becoming strong. Daniel looked ahead and said, "My mentor is a shadow dragon, and his favorite thing in this life is to sleep in the shadows, never get involved in disputes, and has been sleeping for many years. ”
"And how did it become your mentor?" Danielle asked curiously.
Daniel was silent for a moment, then spoke slowly, "According to its description, it was sleeping well, and a woman suddenly fell from the sky, slapped it out of its sleep, and then made it surrender to herself.
Before it could speak, she beat it hard, then took it by the neck and brought it here. ”
Daniel's words silenced the magicians behind him.
Although his words are very short, for some reason they are very graphic and impactful.
"Is that woman you're talking about the Queen of the Dragon?" Daniel asked.
Daniel nodded.
"What a tough woman." Daniel scratched his face and sighed.
Obviously the most powerful creature under the gods, but I don't know why, in Daniel's dictation, this dragon is like a small chicken.
While they were communicating, they came to the door of a palace.
The first palace was built on the volcano, and in front of it was a towering stone staircase that winded up to the palace gates. On both sides of the stone steps, there is a delicate statue every few steps, they are in different forms, some are majestic and majestic, some are graceful and graceful, and people can't help but marvel at the ingenuity of the craftsmen.
On either side of the gate, there are two prostrate dragons, with chains around their necks, and they close their eyes to rest.
Seeing the comer, the two dragons opened their dragon eyes, and when they saw Daniel, they ignored it and continued to close their eyes.
"These two dragons used to be very obedient to the queen." Daniel explained, "So it's tied here to watch the door. ”
Daniel nodded, but he subconsciously quickened his pace.
The memory of the last time he was almost beaten half to death by a dragon has not been fully digested, and there are still some shadows for these dragons.
These things are really ridiculously strong
However, it was clear that many of the magicians around had never seen a real dragon except for the one Isabel had raised.
Their pace slowed a little, and they looked at the dragons carefully, which was very strange.
Upon entering the gate, the first thing that catches your eye is a wide courtyard. In the center of the courtyard, there is a crystal clear pool whose water sparkles in the sunlight. Around the pond, the flower beds are planted with all kinds of exotic flowers and plants, exuding a faint fragrance.
Along the stone paths on both sides of the courtyard, one can reach the main building of the palace. The main building is tall and majestic, with golden glazed tiles on the roof, which shimmer in the sun. The doors and windows of the main building are exquisitely carved and inlaid with various precious stones, showing the luxury and prestige of the palace.
In the interior of the palace, the palatial halls, spacious and bright halls, and elegant and chic rooms are scattered. The murals on the walls come to life and tell ancient stories. The furniture is beautifully carved with patterns that make it easy to linger.
Then they walked through the palace into another courtyard.
The first thing that catches your eye is a circular orb installation, the surface of which is blue-green, like a shrunken globe. The roof of this atrium is supported by six pillars around it.
Some vines even grow up to the pillars and live in symbiosis with these structures.
The sphere is surrounded by a beautiful garden with winding paths and statues that add a touch of art. The garden is lush with a variety of plants, and the whole picture is full of life and vitality, showing a perfect fusion of nature and artificiality.
Not far from them, on an open terrace, there is a table.
Dumbledore sat at the table.
On the other side sat a woman in military uniform, a navy blue British cavalry cap, a double-layered coat somewhat resembling a Spanish style, knee-high socks and platform heels. The upper body has a ribbon and shoulder strap representing the emperor, and a Polish saber pinned to the waist.
A pair of azure eyes are very sharp, as if containing thousands of troops, people dare not look directly into her eyes, and the momentum exuded by her body makes people know at a glance that she is a queen who reigns over the world.
Perhaps, the dragons currently controlled by the queen in front of her are actually completely capable of ruling the current human world.
So even though this dragon kingdom is small, no one can take it lightly.
Daniel, apparently recognizing Catherine, opened his eyes slightly.
But when you think about it, it makes perfect sense.
Because Catherine is the creator of dragon-slaying magic, it is really normal that there are so many dragon-slaying magicians here.
She has the title of dragon slayer herself, so it makes sense that she has the ability to defeat dragons.
But although it is reasonable, the real existence of the dragon kingdom is the Hogwarts mentor they have seen, and the impact on them is still very large.
"Is this the Queen of Dragons?"
Although there were already some guesses, Daniel asked in a low voice.
Daniel nodded, his eyes full of reverence as he looked at Catherine, and he slowly stepped forward and saluted him.
"Your Majesty, I have already brought someone here."
"Got it, let's go down." Catherine said.
"Yes." Daniel retreated.
Catherine glanced at the men, then said, "Come closer. ”
Daniel and the others slowly approached the table and came to Catherine.
The view here is really good, and since the palace is built on the mountainside, it has a commanding view of the whole city.
Here, looking at the city from the ground is another view.
The contrast between the green city and the red wilderness in the distance is very stark, like an oasis in the desert, with a sense of refuge in the apocalypse.
From here, you can also see the whole view of part of the palace, which is also just as stunning, perhaps because of the huge size of the dragons.
If this is ancient times, the queen in front of her must be a king who is very happy, because the cost of building such a palace is undoubtedly a sky-high price.
However, building such a palace is a small step compared to building a space station on the surface of Jupiter, which couldn't have been easier for Tony Stark, and it didn't even take a month to build.
Many of the materials were built using alchemy and local materials, so many of the walls looked very similar to the red Gobi outside.
To be honest, if Darniere hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed that outside the world, in this barren land, there could be a kingdom where both humans and dragons lived.
He had dealt with dragons, which were proud creatures and generally looked down on humans.
And now they can coexist in such harmony.
In general, there is only one possibility, and that is that something far more powerful than them maintains this balance above their heads.
There is no doubt that it is the existence in front of you.
Although Daniel had never seen Catherine make a move, at this moment, he had a relatively clear understanding of the combat power of the mysterious magician in front of him
"Dumbledore must have told you why you're here, right?" Catherine said.
After a pause, she said, "I can tell you more clearly, in a year's time, or even sooner, the seal of the Dragon's Lair will be completely torn apart. Then, tens of thousands of dragons will come out into the world. ”
Daniel's pupils shrank slightly, although he did realize that there were more and more dragons appearing recently, and he did know that the seal of the dragon's nest was about to collapse, but he didn't expect time to be so fast.
She looked at the person in front of her, her eyelids slightly retracted.
"Maybe many of you don't realize what that means.
But I can tell you very bluntly that with the destructive power of the dragons, they will simply stretch and sneeze, and everything you know in this world will be reduced to nothingness in the blink of an eye."
The faces of several magicians were very solemn, and the latter part began to talk to each other.
"What do they think of humanity?" A magician beside Darniel asked.
It was Darniere's senior, Posey, who had entered the academy before him.
Catherine looked at the city below and whispered, "I understand your thoughts. ”
"It's not that dragons and humans can't coexist peacefully, but all intelligent life has something in common.
In the past, if a powerful civilization discovered a weak civilization, it did either slaughter or outright enslavement, and this has happened many times in history.
This is true even if you are of the same kind, let alone a dragon who is an alien species?
Until you can't give them the capital to walk with, they will only choose to enslave and slaughter.
Because ants don't deserve the same rights as them.
Dignity is not earned by groveling, but by struggle. ”
"I've heard of the Dragon's Lair." Posey said with a solemn face, "There are very large dragons there, and they are very powerful. ”
Ekaterina muttered softly.
"In the future, this era will be a very different era.
Death may always be with you, and you may not be able to protect what you hold dear.
But at least, there is one thing that these things cannot take away.
That is. Choose.
Resist, or surrender, that's your choice.
Moreover, we are not without a chance of winning.
Because "
Catherine curled her lips, and her azure eyes shone like jewels.
