Chapter 711 I am the Prophet! (6200)

Just when the King of the Mountain was communicating with the Extreme Wind Dragon King on the Orbital Dragon Island.

Terra, South Ridge of the Empire.

Ian is also dealing with dragons.

During the recent period, Xiou repaired his own dragon nest, and the mountain scenery around Guyan Peak has changed a lot.

Originally, the surrounding area of ​​Guyan Peak was full of dark clouds, and thunder would often strike on the top of the mountain, shining with blazing light, so the mountain people called it Guyan.

But now, layers of white mist permeate the surrounding area of ​​the mountain. It is like the light gray brush strokes in ink painting, outlining the rudiment of a vortex above the lonely flame peak, with light blue arcs flowing in the clouds , Gather the power of nature, gently guide the thunder into the mountain, and turn it into energy.

It can be seen that on the mountain peak, one or two streaks of spiritual energy visible to the naked eye light up from time to time. They criss-cross on the mountain body, and finally disappear in the core of the rock formation.

The Guyan Peak had been stripped of its surface soil due to the recent large storms in the past ten years, and what was left was the strongest rock structure, and these rocks were obviously transformed into the dragon's lair.

Ian was walking on the mountainside of Guyan Peak, and he observed with great interest the newly transformed strategic location—inside the mountain, Xiou buried many huge constructs, just like the one in front of Ian's eyes. The table's bullet-shaped metal bulge acts as a floor vent for a giant pipe.

The copper pipes are exposed, and from time to time, a milky white, faintly glowing steam gushes out from the inside, straight into the clouds on the top of the mountain, adding to the reuse of energy.

With the Dragon Nest as the center, a small area rich in source quality will be formed. A few years later, Xiou's Dragon Nest will grow many sublimated plants, and even a very special sublimated spirit related to its true dragon characteristics. can plant.

The technology of the true dragon is far beyond the imagination of many people. Many people who do not know the source of the power of the true dragon will regard the ignorance of the sub-dragon and the barbarism of the half-dragon as the nature of the dragon.

But in fact, every true dragon has extremely inscrutable technology and wisdom. Even the fifth-generation true dragon like Xiou, the flesh and blood body bred by parents is also the essence of the highest memory.

Although he didn't inherit the wisdom held by his mother, Siou has learned a lot from years of study in the Dragon's Nest.

"Maybe we can lure Xiou to the alchemy workshop next time? Adbert has always wanted to see what is going on with the real dragon up close."

With this in mind, Ian came to the gate of Xiou's dragon nest.

Compared with the first time, the dragon's nest gate was closed by a metal gate this time, and there were two golden crystals at the gate, shining with fiery light.

As soon as Ian was illuminated by this light, the door opened automatically—he was registered as the highest-ranked guest, and Dragon Nest would naturally not reject the boy.

By the way, the king of the mountain has a special authority. Although it is also the highest level, he will make a strong sound almost like an alarm to remind a certain real dragon that his mother is coming.

Ian came here this time to see how Xiou is recovering recently.

Xiou's body needs to eat a lot of sublimated metals and special biomass for redevelopment. These mountain kings are responsible for part of it, but as Xiou's lord and temporary guardian (pleased by the mountain king), Ian is naturally also responsible.

The sublimation metal is easy to say, and the mountain people can supply it. Rather, the mountain people are too used to enshrining a real dragon.

There were even many tribes who were moved to tears when they knew that they could serve the real dragon, and repeatedly refused the remuneration paid by Ian.

Money has to be forcibly stuffed, what is this called.jpg
Of course, this is actually the benefit of Ian's high prestige...Recently, under Ian's tough measures to rectify, all the mountain tribes that once invested in Feiyandi were forcibly split up and centrally managed , and their original wealth and land were divided by Ian and other mountain tribes who supported the empire.

And Ian also brought a lot of modern working tools and alchemy creations to the mountain people. Cheap pyroxene lamps replaced the original kerosene, and roads began to be laid among the various ministries, providing a way for the exchange of materials and Ian The management has brought great convenience.

With these benefits, and the increasingly elite magnetic storm armor troops in Ian's hands, all the mountain people are managed very well.

Occasionally, if someone doesn't want to be controlled, then use a big stick to kill a few people to stand up, and the itchy idiot will return to honesty.

Among them, some typical chiefs who had objections to Ian were even arrested and paraded in the streets, wandering around the gates of each tribe, and then executed after being convicted.

Although it sounds like a violent reign of terror, it must be explained here: in this world of sublimators, if you don’t show your own violent terror, others will teach you what violent terror is.

No one really thinks that Huairou and morality can control a group of people whose political system is still in the tribal stage and have sublimated inheritance?That is no longer naive, but stupid.

As for those defeated mountain people under centralized management, Ian also knew very well that most of them were ordinary people.

However, he would rather make the former enemy feel uncomfortable than make the mountain people on his side feel uncomfortable.

But it's not a big problem. Ian gathered these people around the swamp area in the northwest of the Baisen Mountains, carried out a swamp reclamation, and tried to plant the raw material of elemental crystallization 'Xiao Jing Mushroom' on a large scale-he would provide sufficient food and Tools, housing, and utilities on the land are crude, but they are solid without cutting corners.

Moreover, because these people are defeated and know their identity as defeated, Ian has many experimental techniques and management methods that can be used on this group of people who have no and dare not have resistance.

Perhaps, they were the first to become Ian's true people.

Most importantly, Ian didn't deprive them of their sublimation inheritance, but didn't give them enough wealth to become sublimated.

For the mountain people, this is nothing but deprivation of all past wealth, but the glory is still there. The messenger of the dragon god promised that all their sins would be reset to zero, and all accumulations would start again.

Reasonable punishment is almost like a gift.

In short, with the arrival of the new year, the mountain people also ushered in a more hopeful day visible to the naked eye. They willingly worshiped the heir of the king of the mountain, and worshiped this real dragon that could bring them peace.

And Shio didn't do nothing.

In addition to casting the nest, he also helped Roland and the dwarf team who were surveying the terrain around the mouth of the gorge—Xio was not the kind of high-ranking character, and he would take action when he heard Roland's call for help.

As a result of Xiou's attack, three jungles were burned, four small hills were dug up, an entire group of pinecone wild boars were eaten, and a large number of magical beasts were driven away. Roland even said casually, "this A 50-meter-deep pit was dug where the foundation could be dug a little deeper.

To be honest, as an outsider who has never seen a dragon, Roland's view of Xiou is full of awe - he planned to take a few months to complete the initial exploration of the Gap, which was accelerated to the peak under the power of the real dragon. It can be done by the end of the month.

why?
The woods were burned, the hills were flattened, the beasts disappeared, and the complex terrain became flat... If this exploration still takes time, he must be cheating on his wages!

This is the power of a real dragon. It's terrifying. A whole engineering team can't match it.This is the sentiment expressed by Roland's dwarf brother, and he called the workload of one Siou a month as one dragon force, and used it to evaluate the efficiency of the major engineering teams he knew.

Now Siou is the unit of measure.

From this point of view alone, Ian can actually infer that Xiou's recent recovery must be quite good, and because the recovery is very good, he uses his strength with all his strength, just like a blind man who recovers his eyes and goes out to travel every day. In the scene, the deaf man listens to the original soundtrack every day after recovering his hearing.

That being the case, then Ian has to put forward a brand new opinion for Xiou...

According to the information he knew in the steel dragon's lair, the true power of the true dragon can only be fully displayed at the fourth energy level.

For the true dragon transformed from the tinder, this power is the embodiment of the truly powerful civilization power in the tinder, but the fifth-generation true dragon like Xiou seems to have another model.

"The original ancestors of the first generation of true dragons are obviously the 'tools' created directly by the 'creator'. The power they hold is unimaginable, and even the stars can be smashed."

Ian murmured in his heart: "And the second generation, there is a high probability that the creators determined the functions in advance, and the 'auxiliary tools' conceived by the ancestor true dragon, they present a form between machinery and biology, with Its power is also extremely powerful, and it was the first and second generation true dragons that jointly created the third generation of fire seed true dragon."

"What happened between the third-generation true dragon and the fourth-generation true dragon, I don't know, and neither does the steel dragon, but the fourth-generation true dragon, the King of the Mountain, has completely turned into life, and can even directly Use your own body to parthenogenetically breed the fifth-generation true dragon, that is, Xio."

"If the king of the mountain has the power of fire, where does it come from? Even the true dragon does not have so much fire, and it has been consumed after the third generation of true dragons, and Xiou is even more powerful. Possesses the power of fire."

"The dragon of the virtual realm, the advanced tips given by the silver chip... This kind of power is not so much the power of the 'fire seed', but rather the extreme display of the 'dragon blood power' of a real dragon adapting to any environment."

Ian guessed that just like the Terra civilization has been trying to learn from the real dragons, and even 'capture' their power, the real dragons are also learning the technology of the Terra civilization.

The development and sublimation of one's own blood power is quite like a Terra sublimator.

In order to confirm this guess, Ian came here.

"Shio?"

The Dragon Nest is located deep in the mountainside, but it leads directly to the entrance and exit. Ian saw Xiou's real body crawling in the nest in the middle of the Dragon Nest at a glance, and then he knew it clearly: "This is driving the prosthetic body."

Even real dragons are not perfect in everything. The simplest thing is that the real dragon's real body is too big, and it is very troublesome to do experiments and actions. Therefore, real dragons have developed prosthetic bodies based on the particularity of their souls. This technology, instead of their real body action work.

For example, deep in Xiou's dragon lair, there are several laboratories and rest rooms dedicated to prosthetic body operations.Building this kind of room is not a lot of trouble for the dragon, but it can enjoy a lot of convenience, which is very cost-effective.

Since the real body is 'sleeping', it proves that Xiou's prosthetic body is concentrating on doing some very important things, and Ian did not deliberately wake up the other party's real body, but went to the prosthetic body laboratory and knocked on the door: "Xiou , I need to find you."

"Eh? Ian is here!"

At this moment, a voice full of vitality can be heard, with a little accent in the common language, and a little taste of the northern people: "Come in, come in, I have something good to show you!"

Ian frowned slightly. He vaguely remembered that the accent of the red-haired elf woman before Xiou seemed to be from Canaan Moore, and the accent of the red-haired mountain man was not from the north... Did he change the prosthetic body again?

Good stuff though?

With curious thoughts, Ian opened the door and walked into Xiou's prosthetic body laboratory.

Then he saw a face.

A familiar face.

Ian's own face.

"..."

Ian raised his eyelids slightly. Although he had expected it a long time ago, he was still a little surprised when he saw it—the red-haired dragon girl was wearing a white-gold dress, revealing her fair arms and slender collarbone, her hair like a flame. The hair fell quietly, not like a flame, but like blood ice, giving a crystal clear and ethereal inspiration.

And on the slender neck hung a silver-black dragon scale pendant, which made her skin whiter.

And Dragon Girl's eyes are not light blue like Ian's, but bright golden like the sun.

Xiou is obviously adjusting his prosthetic body. On the whole, the face made with Ian as a model is more indifferent and ascetic than the face made with Anfa as a model before, probably because of the impression Ian gave him That's it.

But not necessarily—Anfa was originally a very calm person, but he was able to show Xiou a naive look. It can only be said that the appearance comes from the heart, even if it is the same face, the essence from the core is still the same. Can't hide.

"How is it, does it look like it!"

Xiou was looking at a surrounding mirror excitedly, she turned her head to look at Ian, and after looking at the boy's face for a while, she was a little dejected: "Ah, what's going on... It seems that it looks very similar , but when I really saw my own face, I felt that I didn't grasp the essence at all..."

"Lacking this temperament, it's just plain good-looking!"

"Of course." Ian complained: "In addition to my face, you also changed it to red hair, added elf ears, and colored contact lenses... And if I were a woman, I wouldn't wear this evening dress." A gown-like dress, at best a white lab robe, or an alchemist robe."

"Too many elements are added, conflict with each other, or influence each other. Naturally, it has nothing to do with me, but your own aesthetics."

"Yes." After thinking for a while, Xiou couldn't help but nodded in agreement: "Then what do you think of my aesthetics?"

"Your aesthetics are quite similar to my former boss."

Ian commented succinctly, and Xiou asked curiously: "What? He also likes pointy ears, or fluorescent pupils? Personally, I prefer to add a tail and dragon horns, but it doesn't look like that." It's so human, it's hard to walk in the human world, I can only walk around the mountain people..."

"No. I'm just talking about redheads."

Ian and Xiou chatted about the red-haired pure love Viscount Grant, and successfully turned the topic to another world-Xio actually understood Viscount Grant very well, because the same is true for dragons.

But soon, Ian changed the topic again: "I don't mind if you use my face as a prosthetic body model, anyway, other people can tell that it's not me, but..."

He narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Xiou and his brother-sister-like faces, and said thoughtfully: "It's better to say, if you can tell it's me, it will be useful..."

"interesting!"

Thinking of this, Ian suddenly became interested. He pointed to the hair and asked Xiou: "Can the hair color be changed?"

"Of course, just adjust it."

Xiou shook his head cheerfully, and then his bright red blood-ice long hair turned into pure white—although it was slightly different from Ian's hair color, generally speaking, ordinary people would not be able to tell it at a glance .

Moreover, if you want to adjust it, you can quickly adjust it to be exactly the same.

"What about the color of the eyes?" Ian's eyes lit up, and he asked again.

And Xiou blinked, and immediately turned into the same water-colored eyes as Ian.

Now, from a distance, they really look like a pair of brother and sister.

"very good!"

Ian stood up, and now he was really happy: "Xio, I need your help with a favor!"

"It's definitely okay to help, but let me tell you in advance that I can't learn your usual manners——I can't adapt to your living habits either!"

Xiou is not stupid. He guessed Ian's purpose from the very beginning... It was nothing more than letting the dragon use a prosthetic body as a substitute for him. This kind of thing has happened in history. There was once a king who asked His real dragon friend replaced him on the battlefield as the Chinese army to suppress the morale of the army, and he himself led the elite sublimator team to raid the enemy's rear.

But this kind of thing rarely happens... because you can get a real dragon to pretend to be a substitute for you, so why not let the real dragon directly crush the opponent?The disguised king didn't know the identity of the other party's real dragon back then, and thought it was just a sublimator who disguised himself very well, and the real dragon didn't want to reveal his true identity, so it happened.

Xiou is naturally happy with Ian's commission, but if he is asked to learn Ian's living habits, that's not an option. Absolutely not!
"unnecessary."

Ian shook his head slightly: "I definitely don't have much time for you to disguise my identity. Even if there is, you just need to stay in the laboratory, pretend that you are doing experiments, and show up occasionally, so you won't be seen through."

"As for the work, I will definitely tell Scott and the others to do it in advance, just treat it as if I am retreating in the laboratory, and it will not be troublesome at all."

"It's fine."

Xiou readily agreed that he didn't think it was a difficult task - on the contrary, he was more interested in what Ian had to leave the territory: "But the development of your territory in recent years has been slow. Are you busy? Are you really free to go out? I can just help you pretend, I can’t help you with real work.”

Ian shook his head slightly: "I don't know what it is, but I know there will definitely be one. Apart from anything else, Canaan Moore, if there is something going on in Anfa, I will definitely go."

"That's what I said."

Xiou was a little puzzled: "Why is it all guesswork like the prophet, but so sure..."

"I am indeed a prophet." Ian shrugged, and Xiou shook his head: "I know, the prophet who sent down thunder... Wait, you were just joking?!"

Zhenlong's perception of lies and truth is far better than that of ordinary people. She originally thought that Ian was just joking, but later realized that what Ian just said was a frank statement.

This immediately surprised her.

- Prophet, this is a prophet!It is even rarer than a real dragon, and there are not many in the entire Terra continent. Even the four major orthodox religions cannot guarantee a stable [-]% inheritance of the prophet!

There is one in front of him? !

"Yes."

The dragon girl looked at the smiling young man in amazement, and Ian said calmly: "I am a prophet—that's why I can do so many unimaginable things and achieve such incredible achievements."

"There are still many people who don't know this. You are the first few."

Having said that, Ian slowed down his tone, and he and Xiou looked into each other's eyes, leaving time for the other party to think: "The reason why I am telling you now is that I plan to gradually release the rumor that I am a prophet in the recent period—and You, I happen to see a bit of the future."

"Xio, how much do you know about the 'Dragon of the Void'?"

"The prophet... the dragon of the void..."

Xiou's surprised expression has not completely subsided, she muttered to herself: "No wonder, no wonder you walked so fast in the subspace maze as if you foretold the future... Oh, you did foretell the future!"

"No wonder, I haven't lied to you from the beginning, maybe Anfa too? I said why you have been so calm all the time, even if you are hunted down, you are not afraid at all. So you already knew that Anfa and I would meet Shot!"

"Okay! I have a prophet friend!"

Although he thought a lot, Xiou's final thoughts were still fixed on "goodness" - being able to be friends with the prophet is also an unprecedented experience for Zhenlong.

However, her views on the dragon of the void are very vague: "I only heard that when my mother contacted Long Dao decades ago, when I was still resting in the dragon's lair, the void dragon Tianyu Ramirton had passed away. He passed away, without descendants and successors, and the inheritance vacancy left by him needs to be recovered by the surrounding real dragons in the past."

"In the beginning, my mother was unwilling to go to take care of me, and I didn't want him to delay my work because of me, so I tried my best to chat with my mother for a while, and then he set out to collect it. Because of this, I remember it very clearly."

"inherit?"

Hearing this, Ian couldn't help frowning.

Void Dragon, maybe it is the name of the Dragon of the Void Realm on the side of the real dragon, or the name of that generation of Dragon of the Void Realm... It seems that this real dragon has existed for a long time, but has no one inherited it?
Could it be that the power obtained by the fifth generation true dragon after reaching the fourth energy level is related to this kind of inheritance from the previous generation?

It doesn't feel like... Or, it shouldn't be completely related. The inheritance must have something to do with the power of the fifth or even the fourth generation of true dragons, but it's not all.

For some reason, the dark golden dragon that he had seen on the road to spiritual disaster suddenly appeared in Ian's mind.

Such a real dragon that is so powerful that it can break through the gravity of the solar system and go to the starry sky of the universe...if it is a real dragon of the new generation.

So, whose power did He inherit?
