Chapter 306 Authority of the Lord of the Labyrinth (33)

"Thank you."

Ian finished his communication with Bishop Baiwu, and the other party also nodded slightly: "There is no need to thank you, what should be done. In contrast, I would also like to thank you, Isengard and Master Gosse for helping us Huaiguang."

Bishop Baiwu just left, and he still needs to collect the data of the 'maze core field' here.

And Ian stayed where he was, thinking for a while.

"The key to the Eternal Labyrinth..."

He was silent.

The boy knew very well that the real function of the silver chip in his body was the 'Key to the Eternal Labyrinth'.

The Huaiguang Church doesn't know this, and can only know the term 'Lord of the Labyrinth' through prophecy or other means.

But Ian understood that at that time, Inaiga II might just want to become the 'Master of the Eternal Labyrinth'.

Is this a strange thing?It is only normal to want to control it when you clearly have the key.

Why does becoming its master become the source of disaster?

Unless...the Eternal Labyrinth also has something similar to the insect nest, or something far more terrifying than the insect nest...

This question cannot be explained without intelligence.

"No wonder the teacher said it was both a blessing and a curse."

With a chuckle, Ian recorded the information in the chip, and the boy lowered his eyes: "What kind of choice is it... Haha, it's really interesting."

Although he doesn't have the strength to explore now, there are plenty of opportunities in the future.

Now, he returned to the team, and then looked in the direction where the crystal dragon was.

The wound on the crystal dragon's body is no longer bleeding, but it is estimated that the blood has been drained, and a pale luster is still flowing on the surface of its blue crystal body, which is probably the color of pure ether.

But even so, the aura of the ether crystal dragon was terrifying, not like a first-level creature at all.

"This guy is very powerful, a titan biological hatchling of the fifth energy level'top seat'."

Master Gesai was tidying up the small alchemy furnace in his waist and abdomen, but even so, he still raised his head from time to time and looked at the dying giant beast with complicated eyes: "Even if it is only the first energy level, if you want to capture it, I'm afraid you have to use it." Call Ayers."

"After reaching the second energy level, there is no way to subdue it. I'm afraid I can only kill it... I never expected that there would be such a terrifying alien monster in the South China Sea ruins. Could it be a biological weapon produced by the civilization of the previous era? ?"

This guess is not wrong, but Ian feels that even the pre-epoch civilization would not be able to get the fire engine on the crystal dragon.

This was obviously an accident...or in other words, an experimental product.

"Beyond the species, does it mean to go beyond the design of the predecessors, or to say to go beyond the limit of the body?"

Ian stared at the Ether Crystal Dragon, thinking in his heart: "The 'fire' in its body should not be a real fire engine, and the real fire engine should not be kept in this heterogeneous experiment center, but it must be a pre-epoch civilization imitations."

"The Rinfrost Crystal Dragon in the ice abyss of the ruins before had the breath of this kindling in his body, which aroused the core vibration of the ancient dragon in my body... But the strength of the Rinfrost Crystallization Dragon at the same level is obviously not as strong as this Ether Crystallization Dragon. The latter are special individuals who have fully adapted to the power of the fire."

Seemingly noticing Ian's gaze, the dragon and Ian looked at each other, the eyes of both sides intertwined, and the dragon let out a dragon cry.

And Ian was a little surprised.

"What's the matter, Ian?"

Isengard has been staring at the mithril rapier in his hand, and his expression is a bit complicated.

But after noticing Ian's momentary look of surprise, he asked with some concern: "Do you feel uncomfortable?"

He had seen Ian's exhausted state before, and the blond boy wanted to give Ian a few bottles of stamina potions, but the other party declined.

"Well... it's calling me over."

Ian pondered for a while, and then made up his mind: "I'll go and check the situation, there should be nothing wrong."

The dragon chant just now came from the ether dragon, and the other party was calling him to come over.

Calling 'like'.

When Ian came to the Crystal Island in the center of the lake, the Crystal Dragon had coiled up his body and watched Ian quietly.

"You have sensed the ancient dragon core in my body, but I must say, I am not an ancient dragon."

The young man looked up at this majestic but non-hostile giant beast, and he reminded: "I am a human being—although I don't know if you can understand me, but I still have to tell you."

The Ether Crystal Dragon just groaned, it really couldn't understand the strange tone of the little creature in front of it, but it knew very well that it didn't have much time to waste.

Chi-

It lowered its head, stuck out its tongue, and placed three dragon eggs that had begun to emit faint fluorescence in front of Ian.

Crystal Dragon is a modified creature that can reproduce asexually. It can give birth to offspring with different physical signs through other genes recorded in the gene pool, and the offspring will also change themselves according to the environment during the dragon egg stage, so this is an absolutely possible A hyper-adapted life to any kind of environment.

But even so, without the guidance of the elders, it is impossible for the young dragon who has just stepped out of the dragon egg to grow up in the extremely dangerous environment of the maze.

What's more... In his lair, there is such a group of humans.

Crystal Dragon has long sensed that the target of this group of people may be him, but because of the threat of the insect nest, they joined forces to fight against the enemy.

But that may be a good thing.

At least, if this group of people is interested in it and its offspring, it means that their lives can continue.

For life, as long as it can continue, there will always be a day of freedom... What's more, compared with survival and continuation, freedom is not an important thing.

At least, for artificial crystal dragons, they don't reject such a life.

"...Do you want us to take care of the dragon eggs? Well, it is indeed the right choice."

Ian watched these dragon eggs, and found that the level of these dragon eggs had been raised by one level in the silver chip. Obviously, the crystallized dragon used his last pure source quality to strengthen the vitality of these eggs.

This should have been the result of long-term nurturing in the lair, but at the end of its life, the crystallized dragon still 'blessed' its offspring at the cost of its own life.

In this regard, Ian doesn't think this is a bad thing for the ether crystal dragons—no matter what the goal of the empire is, they definitely need to raise crystal dragons. Under the care of those who have professionally raised crystal dragons, This bloodline of the Aether Crystallized Dragon will literally continue.

As for the future...

The ether crystal dragon doesn't care, and neither does Ian.

And in the next moment, the ether crystal dragon uttered another dragon cry, the meaning contained in it made the young man slightly stunned: "Ah? Really or not..."

Then, it opened its mouth.

A translucent tongue rolled and swallowed Ian into his mouth.

"what?!"

Isengard, who had been standing on the shore watching the communication between one person and one dragon, stood up abruptly. He watched this scene in astonishment—but when Isengarde was about to attack the crystal dragon to help Ian, Bishop Baiwu Get closer and press on the opponent's shoulder.

"Don't worry."

The clergyman carefully observed the current situation of the crystal dragon: "Ian is not in danger, and the crystal dragon is not hostile... Well, this process..."

He couldn't help frowning slightly: "Dragon Blood Pact? No, it's not like... But isn't this crystallized dragon dying? What exactly is it doing?"

"Wait." Bishop Baiwu suddenly frowned, and he thought of a possibility: "The Lord of the Labyrinth?"

"Is this the transfer of authority from the Lord of the Labyrinth?!"
