Chapter 760: Dragon's Shadow in Winter

Views:

Melita leaves.

The refraction position concealed the giant dragon's huge body, and a passive gust of wind suddenly swept across the sky of Cecil City, and faint twisted ripples flashed in the background of clouds and skylight, but except for a few Except for the powerful and the sentry towers dedicated to detecting magical invisible units, no one knows that a giant dragon has visited the city.

Gawain stood in front of the gate of the Institute of Magic Technology, looked up at the direction Melita left, and looked away after a long time.

The Empire Against Tide... The Ultimate Book... Knowledge Stolen from Satellites...

He pondered over the newly collected information carefully, sketching the outlines of gods and ancient history in his mind. After thinking for a long time, he shook his head with a smile, and looked back at the magic technology research institute behind him.

Hundreds of researchers are busy in this facility, and more than a dozen large and small laboratories and project teams are running in it. In the mind network, the origin laboratory has hundreds of simulation experiments every day. In the workshop of the manufacturing plant, the collision of gears and levers is non-stop day and night. In Saint-Sunil, in the city of Luan, in the Association of Mages and Scholars, countless people full of wisdom and knowledge are gathering to bring those scattered in human society together. The esoteric knowledge is reunited, and the fragmented ancient technology is repainted...

All of this is jointly promoted by tens of thousands of people, and jointly promoted by the entire Cecil society. It originated from people and is used for people. It is not a technology that was dug from the aliens, not A blueprint drawn out of thin air by anyone in the territory is not a miracle or a gift.

The giant dragon flies across the vast clear sky in winter, its diopter position gradually dissipates, clouds and sunlight intertwine and cast mottled light and shadows on the blue scales, the scenery of wilderness and hills is projected in the crystal-like eyeballs, this mighty king of the sky Hovered twice in the air, then lowered his head, rushing towards the ground like a meteorite.

After the almost thrilling gliding and deceleration, the blue dragon collided with a century-old giant tree, and broke the 100-meter-high giant tree in the middle, and then the unbalanced body was shaken and rolled All the way forward, thunderous bangs continued to sound, countless giant trees and solid rocks were torn apart by the impact, and a deep ravine nearly half a kilometer long was plowed out of the ground.

The blue dragon finally stopped at the foot of a cliff. After half a minute of panting, she struggled to hold her head up. Countless earth, rocks, branches and leaves fell from her body, and hot and shimmering blood flowed from several terrible scars. blood.

Immediately, the implants and modified glands in the giant dragon began to work, and began to repair this powerful and tough body. Melita raised her head, and the scales near the neck opened like some kind of heat sink, revealing the metal texture under the scales The inner lining of the implants and the radiant pipes and connections, gushes of hot steam gushed out from the gaps of these implants, making the blue dragon couldn't help but let out a low snort.

"Damn... I don't like boosters... but the auxiliary heart I'm using right now is a limited edition..."

Melita grunted and her voice was booming, but she still took out a huge gun-shaped syringe from nowhere. Holding the syringe with her front paws, she stabbed the front end deeply into the crevice of the scales below her neck, and as the syringe leaked With a hiss of pressure, a liter of potent multi-boosters and the same amount of regenerative agent were injected into the veins, and her two auxiliary hearts, which were already on the verge of tearing, finally calmed down.

The extra three hearts and the bionic pump under the scales can greatly improve the endurance and survivability of the dragons who need to travel far, but anyway, talking about black traps with aliens, and reminding the forbidden knowledge about the gods... Sure enough Still too exciting.

Melita breathed heavily, calming down the side effects caused by the overdose injection of boosters. Even though there are some dragons who enjoy this feeling instead, and even have the problem of booster addiction, she is really not used to this.

After feeling a little better, she closed the scales around her neck, hiding the implants again.

In the dragon society of Tarrond, implants and boosters have long been a part of dragon life, and newborn dragons even undergo the first implant surgery in the first ten years of a dragon's life. A resonance core is implanted inside. This resonance core will establish a connection between the user and "Omega", so that the young dragons can have a dialogue with the powerful artificial intelligence, and the latter will complete the knowledge education and behavior guidance for the young dragons. In other words, any normal Tallond dragon citizen has 100% implants in his body.

It's just that some dragons choose to expose the implants, such as Speaker Andal, and some dragons prefer hidden transformations, such as Melita Pernia.

After resting for dozens of minutes, Melita stood up. The bleeding wound on her body had healed urgently, and taking off was no longer a problem. Although she still wanted to rest for a while, she knew that the colleagues monitoring the situation at the rear probably It's been a mess.

The blue dragon soared into the sky, and soon reached a height where it could communicate directly with Tarrond.

Although Tarrond can also be contacted on the surface, all communications at that height will be heard by the Dragon God. Only at this height near the end of the sky and the legacy of the "Starter" will the communication not be monitored by any gods .

Even if the person on the other side of the communication is standing on the ground, standing at the gate of the palace of the gods, it is the same. Millions of years have passed, and the majesty of the sailor is still there.

A pale golden communication interface appeared in front of Melita, and she called the Mithril Treasury headquarters in the distance while maintaining the flight altitude: "Melita Pernia calls the support team, Melita Pernia calls the support team... Quickly pick it up! I'm dialing you in the stratosphere with a tenth-level disability, do you hear me!!"

Finally, a nervous and flustered voice came from the communication interface: "Melita! This is Noretta. What's going on with you? Your implant suddenly reported that two of your four hearts exploded! And you And injected myself with a triple dose of booster!"

Melita took a deep breath: "Huh... it didn't explode, I rescued it with a regenerative agent, but the sensor should be broken... It's okay, I can feel them still jumping."

Hearing Melita's still-spirited voice, Noretta, who was far away in Tarrond, finally heaved a sigh of relief. After relaxing, she also joked: "Why did you embezzle the customer's gift? Was discovered by a client? Was beaten to the ground by some legendary strongman?"

"I chatted with Gawain Cecil about the black trap and the Reverse Tide Empire," Melita said indifferently, "I accidentally said a few more words."

As expected, she heard the sound of something falling on the ground and several exclamations during the communication.

The chaos caused by herself made the corners of Melita's mouth curl up slightly.

A friend's exclamation came from the light golden communication interface: "Melita! You are crazy!! You are dying?!"

"Isn't this still alive?"

"What's going on?" Noretta seemed to have finally calmed down, and felt something strange from Melita's tone, "You can rest assured that Omega has intervened, and Speaker Andal is on the line."

"Gawain Cecil got an ultimate book made by the Reverse Tide Empire, don't exclaim, it's damaged," Melita said unhurriedly, "Also, if I didn't deliberately guide , he summed up one of the core laws of 'disobedience'."

The other side of the communication was silent for a long time, and then a voice came: "Which one?"

"Human wisdom took over divine power," Melita said, "babies crawling out of the cradle need to use their own hands and feet..."

The majestic and steady voice of Speaker Andal came from the communication channel: "Okay, there's no need to go on."

Even in this place close to the legacy of the "Voyager", at this height far away from the eyes of the gods, there are some taboos, so be careful.

Melita stopped this dangerous topic, and then under the inquiry of Noretta and Speaker Andal, she carefully reported the process of meeting with Gawain Cecil today.

After the report was over, she heard Speaker Andal let out a long sigh.

It was a sigh of relief.

The dragon elder who lived for a long time asked in a deep voice: "Melita, in your opinion, how far are the ordinary people of the Cecil Empire...?"

Melita's answer was very straightforward: "Most of them are still ignorant and backward, controlled by the old kingship and theocracy. Cecil has been pushing education like hell, but it's clear this isn't something that can be fixed in four or five years."

Speaker Andal's voice seemed a little low: "... yes, yes, this is not something that can be resolved within a few years..."

"But we can't ignore the changes that have taken place," Melita continued, "It is true that most people's transformation will take time, but various sprouts have indeed appeared on this land, or, The accumulation of this land itself has reached a critical point, and the appearance of Gawain Cecil only advanced this process and effectively concentrated these germs, preventing them from disappearing silently in the dark. Doubt, including the pursuit of rationality, as well as the cognition of the laws of nature, now Gawain is playing their role in the right way, so the speed of change in Cecil's society may be faster than we expected."

After another brief silence, Speaker Andal's deep voice sounded: "... You seem to have extra confidence in Gawain Cecil and the order he created."

Melita's answer was still frank: "I have seen changes in this land that have not been seen in a thousand years."

"... I hope your judgment is correct." Speaker Andal said in a deep voice.

After the speaker's voice fell, Noretta's voice interjected: "But anyway, leaving the relics of the Reverse Tide Empire in human society is somewhat risky, Melita, I think you'd better take back that Book Tower Errond can make some compensation for this, and Gawain Cecil probably doesn't mind selling the dragon a favor, right?"

Melita shook her head, and just about to speak, she heard Speaker Andal's voice again: "Noretta, trust Melita's judgment on this matter."

"but… "

"Noretta, young you, are you more stubborn than an old man like me?"

Noretta paused for a moment: "... I understand, Your Excellency Speaker."

This matter finally came to an end, and Melita couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in her heart.

She challenged the rules and faced shocking information too many times today. Thinking about it now, it feels like she has been frantically probing for hours on the verge of sudden death.

Such an exciting job... All I can say is that dealing with Gawain Cecil is not very good for the heart.

Not very good in a physical sense.

"Melita, go back to Tarrond first after finishing the work at hand," the voice of the white dragon Noretta came from the opposite side of the communicator again, "Your implant needs to be repaired, and the physical condition after the backlash is also serious. It needs to be carefully checked."

"I know, you don't need to say that I'm dying of pain now," Melita said while taking a breath, "I'll find a place to rest for a day or two later, and return to Tarrond when I recover my strength."

"Received and wish you all the best."

"I have received your blessing."

The communication was hung up, and the pale golden communication interface turned into shimmering particles, which gradually dissipated in the air.

Melita took a deep breath, filling her lungs with the icy high-altitude air, and then slowly exhaled.

Accompanied by the dull pain in the muscles and skeleton all over her body, she began to slowly lower the height.

The land of Cecil's empire was reflected more and more clearly in her huge pupils.

Mountains and rivers, forests and plains, cities and villages, and countless people living on this land.

"A change that hasn't happened in a thousand years... I hope I read it right..."

The refraction position spreads on the scales, the figure of the dragon gradually disappears in the phantom created by the magic power, the shadow of the dragon that hides its figure flies across the sky, on the wind-swept land, the convoy full of supplies is setting off, full of hope Immigrants are settling, scrappy ranks are gathering...
