The dragon's wings swept across the sky, and the pale golden glow seemed to be shattered by the giant wings, turning into countless sparkling lights and plating on the broad and majestic blue scales. Riding on the ripples of magic power, the master of the sky has crossed the border of the continent, crossed the endless sea, crossed the never-ending storm barrier, and stood on the horizon. In the brilliant rays of the sun, he flew quickly towards the extreme north.
The cold wind was howling, and the bitingly cold air in the extreme north showed that the destination was approaching. The blue dragon slightly lowered the height, and in the huge pale golden pupils, it reflected the many icebergs and icebergs floating on the Arctic ice sea. All kinds of permanent alloy creations protruding from the sea, some weak and harmless creatures were jumping and playing on those icebergs and platforms. When the dragon shadow swept across the sky, some of the creatures immediately jumped into the sea to hide, while others He looked up at the sky blankly, as if he didn't know what fear was.
The continuous ice floes retreated quickly in the field of vision, and the surrounding area became colder and colder, but suddenly, the number of ice floes decreased greatly, and the surrounding temperature also rose abnormally. The blue dragon slightly reduced the flying speed, and At the end of her vision, a magnificent and magnificent continent was floating on the empty and calm sea between glaciers.
It was a piece of land that was much smaller than Loren Continent, but there were still mountains, forests and rivers on it, and countless elegant towers exuding metal texture stood on the edge of the continent. Arcs jumped between the towers, and the light flowed.
On top of this, a huge shield that is large enough to stun human beings and is far more spectacular than a magnificent wall extends from the sky above the tower, covering the entire continent, and in the air part of this large shield, you can still see A large number of silver-white devices floating in the sky hovered at specific positions, maintaining the integrity of the shield in a certain way, and countless shadows flying in the air walked among those devices, looking busy and orderly.
The blue dragon let out a pleasant growl, and flew towards one of the areas of the big shield. When she got close to a certain distance, the big shield automatically opened a gap, and a long guiding light beam extended from the gap. In the dim light of the sky, it guided the direction of returning home, and a huge metal ring flew out of the shield, followed the guiding beam to the blue dragon, and flew together with the blue dragon.
A stream of light flashed across the surface of the metal ring, and the voice of artificial intelligence came from it: "Identity verification... expatriate, observer, first-level agent of Mithril Treasure... Melita Pernia, identity verification passed, welcome back Home, fellow countrymen."
The blue dragon was obviously in a very happy mood, and greeted the central artificial intelligence behind the ring: "Hi! Omega, what's going on in Tarrond recently?"
The ring paused for a moment, and then the surface flashed light again: "After the retrieval, the No. 2 power unit of the environmental control tower was successfully replaced 72 days ago. A document was issued to commend; the Health Laboratory of the Third Incubation Center successfully improved the 6+2 deformity screening process for synthetic dragon eggs before breaking the shell, making it more ritualistic. The head of the laboratory expressed his reluctance at the press conference The matter alarmed the Senate, but hoped to get 12 years of paid leave. The Senate rejected the request, but still issued a document in recognition of its outstanding work... "
"... Ha... There really isn't any news worth hearing... How many tens of thousands of years has this piecemeal 'result' been going around?" Melita Purnia in the form of a blue dragon sighed, while As the ring flew towards the big shield, he sighed, "Is there any news about the jury?"
In Tarrond, there are two crucial management groups for the dragons. The largest and most powerful is the Senate, which is responsible for managing all internal affairs on the continent and controls Tarron with the assistance of "Omega". All the ancient technical facilities in Lund, and the other is the highest council responsible for managing foreign affairs, and Melita, as a senior cadre of Mithril Treasury, usually deals with the elders of the council most often.
The circle paused again for a moment, and then responded: "Three days ago, the jury made a decision to deduct the ten-year bonus of Melita Purnia, the first-level agent of the Mithril Treasury, to punish her for unauthorized destruction..."
Melita's wings crooked and almost fell, and after finally stabilizing her figure, she took a deep breath: "Okay, you don't need to talk about it, I knew about this three days ago..."
"Grasp the news of your hometown in time to help expatriates relieve loneliness," the ring made a monotonous synthetic voice, and gradually slowed down to fit on the opening of the large shield, "Welcome home again, Melita, I wish you joy."
"I shouldn't have asked you the last question, it's a ghost if you can be happy!"
Melita murmured, retracted her wings slightly, and passed through the thin light film in the middle of the ring with ease, completing a series of procedures such as sterilization and quarantine necessary to return to Tarrond in an instant. , Then she circled inside the big shield, and after recalibrating her sense of direction, she quickly flew towards a magnificent city built among the mountains not far away.
It was a huge city made of stone and metal, stretching along the towering mountains all the way to the sky. Its thick, majestic and complex architectural style is completely different from most cities on the Loren continent, and it is the most distinctive What's more, the building specifications in this city are divided into two completely different types: one has an extraordinarily large size, with a gorgeous and solemn structure, like the residence of a legendary giant, and its porch windows are often twenty or thirty meters high; They are distributed between these large buildings, like some kind of "decoration" attached to the large buildings, which are generally built on the roof or walls of the giant houses. It is a grand style, but it looks delicate and "cute" compared with those giant-like houses.
Melita slowed down slightly over the city, then flew straight towards a familiar direction, and landed firmly on a huge gray-white terrace. After landing, she raised her head and made a loud voice unique to giant dragons: "Noretta! Noretta! Reta! I'm back! Are you home? Are you home? At… "
Just in the middle of shouting, a slightly annoyed voice came to her ears: "I'm at home!! Don't shout so loud!"
Melita looked around: "Where are you?"
A voice came from directly below her: "Under your feet! Put your toes up!"
Melita hurriedly lowered her head, her two huge eyes were almost squeezed together, and after careful identification, she hurriedly moved her paws, looking at a woman in a white dress with long pale blond hair and a mole in the corner of her eye Embarrassed, she got up from where she had stepped on.
"Oh... Noretta!" Melita was amazed, and carefully pinched her friend with her front paws, "It's the first time I saw you maintain a human form when you were not in a light sleep, I didn't see it at all you!"
"That's because your eyesight is bad!" Noretta waved her arm, easily broke free from the dragon's claws, and jumped firmly on the ground, "And of course I want to maintain my human form. Today is a sacred ceremony, and this time the ceremony is in In our city, do you want me to meet the gods in the form of a dragon?"
Melita's huge dragon body was shrouded in a layer of light, and her figure shrunk rapidly in the light, and almost instantly transformed into a human form. Hearing what her friend said to her, she was taken aback for a moment, and then her expression turned pale. He said in a slightly complicated voice: "Ah... a sacred ceremony... I almost forgot, today is the day to meet the Dragon God..."
Noretta, with long pale blond hair and moles at the corners of her eyes, noticed Melita's expression. She pursed her lips, and finally smiled: "She will always be the god who protects us."
"Yeah, it's 'our' god after all..." Melita said, shaking her head slightly, "Let's not talk about that, I want to see the Andal speaker, and I'll bring back a special 'Mithril Entrustment' .”
"Mithril entrustment?" Noretta glanced at the old friend curiously, "What entrustment is worth seeing personally by the chairman of the jury?"
"Gawain Cecil, do you remember this name?"
"The human being who came back from the dead?" Noretta blinked, "Are you still taking his order? Last time he came alive to pick up the goods, the Mithril Treasury was tossed enough, and later he dug graves all over the world to confirm Those dead clients won't crawl out to find us to fulfill their orders..."
"Isn't that the sound of calling for money from other graves didn't come from other graves at the end!" Melita waved her hand, and then her expression became slightly serious after perfunctory, "I'm not joking with you, this entrustment is really serious. It's a little special, that human being is more interesting than you and I imagined, and the power he is building has also developed beyond the initial expectations of the jury and most importantly, he has noticed now... "
Melita closed her mouth suddenly at the end.
But in Tarrond, among the dragons, the sudden silence was a signal in itself.
Noretta frowned slightly, and then she couldn't believe it: "Are you sure?"
Melita nodded lightly: "Do you still remember that crazy human empire? And their crazy rebellious plan. We all thought that a wave of magic completely destroyed those daring mortals and their ambitions, but in fact...they Resilience and courage beyond the imagination of all dragons..."
"Disobedience..."
White Dragon Noretta's face changed slightly after hearing the special word, and then he repeated the word softly with a trace of emotion.
She recalled the evaluation made by the Supreme Speaker when the jury first learned that the Gondor Empire was suspected to be studying the power of anti-god:
Because of their short lifespan and full of variables, and because they are born weak and fearless, human beings are braver than dragons before God.
"Okay, there is still some time before the ceremony, I will arrange for you to meet with Speaker Andal." Mobile terminal::
…
In the center of this dragon city, on the top of the towering mountains, the majestic temple reaches straight into the clouds.
The land in the extreme north is in the extreme daylight stage, and the sky is shrouded in the sun for half of the time every day. This extremely brilliant radiance spills into its resplendent inner hall through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows of the temple, and every inch of the ancient floor tiles Mottled shadows and bright spots were cast on every vicissitudes of the pillars. A woman wearing a pale gold gorgeous long dress, with blond hair hanging down to the ground, with a bright and graceful appearance, was standing in front of a French window in the palace, looking at the The rays of light in the distance, overlooking the sea of clouds below the temple, and the faint city buildings and lights everywhere in the sea of clouds.
She has seen such a scene for almost a million years.
"No matter how beautiful the scenery is... there will always be a day of boredom," the blond woman sighed softly, turned her head and said to the high-ranking dragon priest standing respectfully behind her, "What do you think? Heragor? "
The dragon priest known as Heragor lowered his head slightly, his pale golden pupils were hidden in the shadow of the crown: "This is because your eternity has surpassed all landscapes, my lord."
"...Maybe," the blond woman's mouth curled up slightly, but it was almost impossible to tell whether it was a smile or not. Her voice was gentle and friendly, but the voice was so perfect that it made people fear and resist , "Hragor, you are the priest who has accompanied me for the longest time. It is no longer necessary to be so flattering. Words against one's will are tiring, both for the speaker and the listener."
The dragon priest didn't look up: "My respect for you comes from the bottom of my heart."
The blond woman narrowed her eyes slightly, still smiling: "What about the hatred? Is it from the heart like everyone else?"
"..."
"I put a lock on you, you should hate me, but sadly, even this hatred is locked," the blond woman turned her head and looked at Yunxia in the distance and said, "It's like this million years without A changing landscape... From the day you failed to disobey, you have been locked here forever, locked in this eternal alternation of day and night... Hate me from the bottom of your heart, this is what you should do. "
"..."
"But it doesn't matter, I am still your protector, I will protect you as always, yesterday, today, forever..."
The blond woman said softly, she turned and left the floor-to-ceiling windows, and walked towards the depths of the temple.
"Poor creatures, you are going to be trapped to death on this planet."
Dragon Priest Heragor raised his head, looked at the back of the god, and followed closely with a blank expression.
