I am God!

Black Iron City.

In the Black Iron Dragon Palace, Mir and Heriban had just sent away a large number of unscrupulous people two days ago, but today they welcomed another uninvited guest.

A tall and straight man stood in the dragon palace. He held a golden helmet in one hand. The armor on his body was hidden under a soft and gorgeous white cloak with blue markings embroidered on it.

He has thick blond curly hair, a chiseled face, thick and straight eyebrows, a sharp chin, and a straight nose.

There is an aura of nobility and elegance all over his body, and he looks like a noble knight.

But when Mir and Hriban saw him, they immediately showed angry and suspicious expressions.

"It's you."

"How dare you come here?"

The two of them seemed to be very hostile to the person in front of them, and at the same time they were a little worried.

This person is exactly the person who once broke into the temple and came out alive, or the dragon.

Judging from the appearance, this is a golden dragon. The extraordinary metal possessed by the golden dragon is called fine gold. This metal given the power of law by the third-order golden dragon, the first generation golden dragon king, can increase the power of life species.

Depending on the strength of the life species, the quality and quantity of fine gold are different, allowing the power of a strange or sealed object to exert half or even multiple times its ability.

The other party broke into the temple at the Gate of the Earth more than 100 years ago to help his commander find the power to defeat other dragons and all demon hunters.

Yes, he is a follower and confidant of the son of the Golden Dragon King, and he is extremely close to him.

This is also the reason why Mir and Hriban have worried looks in their eyes.

However, since the son of the Golden Dragon King was exiled by the first Full Moon King, the other party has never appeared, and rarely appears in front of people. Mir and Hriban did not expect that he would suddenly appear at this time, and the other party's appearance must also mean that Some intense purpose.

This person is not as easy to get rid of as the previous ones.

The golden dragon turned back and looked at Mier and Hriban.

"I want to go into the temple again."

"I heard that you said you could open the temple door for us?"

Mier asked him: "Don't you believe what you saw?"

Hriban asked directly: "What is your purpose and reason for coming here?"

The golden dragon took a step closer to the two of them, and then continued.

"I don't just want to get into the temple this time."

"I also want to enter that door, or walk up the ladder that leads to the highest point of the temple."

"I believe the Sealed Book must be in these two places."

The golden dragon had annoyance on his face, and his voice echoed clearly in the hall.

"I knew that the former Dragon King must have left some secrets in the temple, but I didn't expect that the Black King Helfas would actually leave a book recording the true names of all the sealed objects."

"If I could have found it last time, maybe we would have won that war and the great golden age would not have ended."

"So I came here this time to make up for the mistakes I made last time."

"I couldn't find it last time, so I'm going to get it this time."

"With it, I can welcome back my commander-in-chief."

As soon as the golden dragon finished speaking, he was immediately greeted by the angry scoldings of Mir and Hriban.

Hriban: "Give up. You are asking for death. You cannot touch the things in the temple easily."

Mier: "You almost died inside last time. This time you want to further explore the secrets inside. That door is inaccessible. No one can push that door open."

The two of them had no intention of actually letting anyone into the temple from the beginning.

The last time the other party came in was already a great shame and humiliation for the two people who were responsible for guarding the temple.

If they let the other party in, wouldn't the two of them guard the temple in vain?

At this time, the golden dragon, who had turned into a knight with golden curly hair, pointed outside and told Mir and Heriban that he did not come alone this time. He had brought a large number of people who were willing to be loyal to the son of the golden dragon king and were waiting outside. With.

At the same time, several city lords in the northern part of the Full Moon Land have also defected to them, and he does not mind starting a war similar to that of more than 100 years ago.

If Mir and Hriban don't agree, then he will call in like last time and then directly enter the temple.

Although the Golden Age fell and collapsed, only more than 100 years have passed.

Yu Wei is still there.

The influence has not completely disappeared.

Although the son of the Golden Dragon King was exiled, many people still wanted to welcome him back and secretly gathered together to form a huge force.

The expressions of Mier and Heriban became solemn. Although dragons and demon hunters were unable to use extraordinary power in the Black Iron City, dragon professionals relied on their powerful bodies to be ordinary even without extraordinary power. No one can match it.

Moreover, once the war breaks out, the entire Black Iron City will suffer disaster, which is not what they want to see.

Heriban and Mier glanced at each other, both of them hesitant.

They didn't know if the Sealed Book was in the temple, and all the warnings in the temple had been removed as they became familiar with the place. They didn't think that the other party could face the taboo this time and walk out of there alive.

But they didn't dare to gamble. If the book of seals was really found by the other party inside, then their fault would be huge.

The knight with golden curly hair noticed their hesitation, so he began to talk about the last scene he saw and what happened after that.

"Last time."

"I saw the door that recorded madness and illusion. I didn't believe it at first. How could anyone build a city cluster floating in the sky? How could there be such a powerful ethnic group and civilization."

"In that wall, they live in the kingdom of heaven, and we are just a bunch of domestic animals coming out of a vat or jar."

"I fled underground with some anger and headed for higher ground."

"I walked through the stone stairs leading to the heights, but I collapsed halfway through. I don't even remember how I left."

"And after that time, I often have nightmares."

"I dreamed of a..."

The golden dragon seemed to be unable to find any words to describe what he saw, to describe the "building" he saw.

He hesitated until finally he asked a rhetorical question with an expression of extreme shock and confusion.

"Is that a tower?"

The golden dragon looked at the two people and asked them.

"Have you seen it?"

"A huge tower."

Mir and Hriban shook their heads in confusion. They had never stepped onto the stairs leading to the top of the temple, because every time they stood below, their bodies would instinctively feel fear, reminding them to leave.

It should be something they have experienced in the past that is warning them.

They have never heard of the "tower" in the other party's dream.

The golden dragon felt regretful, as if it was a pity that Meer and Hriban were guarding the temple and did not see such a marvelous and majestic thing.

"that's too regretful."

"You didn't see it, it was so spectacular."

"It is a tower that pierces the sky. The sea of ​​clouds and even the sky cannot be higher than it."

"Since then, I have always dreamed that I appeared in that tower. I can't remember the details of the dream, but I feel that I am always moving forward, always going higher, with no end."

"I have been walking in my dream for more than 100 years, and I have not yet reached the top of that tower. I am even far, far away from the top of it."

"It's like the stairs that I didn't finish walking back then, and I can't get to the top."

"It's too big."

“It’s like there’s a world inside, a forgotten era inside.”

The golden dragon's face showed longing and fear.

He yearned for such a marvelous and majestic building, and was afraid of the existence that could build such a building.

"Does that tower really exist?"

"What kind of existence can build such a building?"

“Why was it built and who lives in it?”

"If someone can build such a huge tower, then a city floating in the sky may not be anything!"

"Is the vat or jar we came out of also the same kind of existence?"

Perhaps it was precisely because he had climbed that tower in his dream day after day for more than 100 years that the tower whose name he didn't even know had already occupied too much place in his heart and had a completely different meaning. Same meaning.

As he spoke, his voice became more and more excited.

Finally, he said with an expression and words of obsession.

"where is it?"

"Is it on earth, in heaven, in the stars, or in the kingdom of the gods?"

"I want to find it, I want to unlock the secrets about it."

“Why build it?”

"Who built it?"

"What is God?"

"Who created us and created weirdness? Who is observing the changes of life from above?"

"why……"

The golden dragon seemed to have fallen into madness, asking countless questions and why in a series.

The blond knight who originally looked elegant and noble looked like a madman at this moment, with longing emotions pouring out of his body, face, and eyes like a sea.

He looked at Myr and Hriban excitedly and asked them loudly.

"The same goes for you!"

"Knowing so many secrets, but not getting answers to any of them."

"The more we know, the more darkness and emptiness we see. We continue to sink in it, feeling how small we are, and seeing how powerful and majestic those ancient existences are."

"You have been guarding this temple for more than 800 years. Don't you want to know the reason behind all this?"

He desperately longed for the approval of Myr and Hriban.

Perhaps unconsciously, his inner desire had already changed.

His real purpose of coming back here was more of an excuse than to find the sealed book.

He had already been driven crazy by the bizarre dreams day after day, and fell into an endless desire for the ending and answers at the end of the dream.

He went from being a person who didn't believe in the pictures engraved on the ancient door to someone who firmly believed in it, even like a fanatical believer.

And this time.Mier and Hriban looked at the golden curly-haired knight in front of them with extremely complicated expressions.

Because they seemed to see another version of themselves in each other.

Day after day, I wandered forward among unknown and heavy secrets, but it seemed as if I was walking in a dream, as if I saw something, but knew nothing about it.

The further we move forward, the more eager we become, almost to the point of insanity.

In previous generations, they hurriedly entered reincarnation every time. Was it really just because they wanted to accumulate strength or because they were a little tired?
Perhaps, it is also because they know and see too many dangerous and taboo things, so they have to use reincarnation to erase those secrets from their minds.

Some ancient secrets, some powerful beings.

Even if you just see and know it, you have already fallen into danger and madness.

At last.

The blond knight said in a voice that was crazy with desire.

"Keeper of the Temple."

"Open the door of the temple for me, and let's witness the ancient unknowns and secrets together."

Before Mir and Hriban had time to answer, a slight vibration came from under their feet.

"underground?"

"what's the situation?"

The three of them looked down together.

What made them feel surprised at the same time was certainly not the slight vibration under their feet.

Instead, along with that slight shock, a strong wave of extraordinary power extended from the ground to the sky.

A force was transferred from another world and poured into the Black Iron City.

Hriban: "How is that possible?"

This is Black Iron City, where does the extraordinary power come from.

Helfas stood in his tomb, sitting on the coffin in the form of his soul.

He looked up, and as time passed, he could calculate that his body should have arrived at the remote Cocoon Tree Village outside the Full Moon Forest.

According to his arrangement, his body, which is the anchor point, will be placed by a caravan in the big house he has prepared, and he will land there with the entire coffin.

In a small remote village, even if someone noticed the noise he made, it would not pose any threat to him.

Once again, through the symbolic act of closing his eyes, Helfas concentrated his energy to break away from the anchor point, and then read out the true name of each sealed object here.

"The Sealed Book of Black King Helfas."

"The face of the biphasic devil insect."

"Evil Eye Stone Sword."

"Parasite bow and arrow."

"The Pot of Black Marsh."

Each sealed object was not activated, but Helfas' soul consciousness communicated with them, and he could clearly feel that each living weird thing was sleeping in it.

He could even sense the rhythm of life inside the orichalcum coffin.

At this time, the changes brought about by his behavior of breaking away from the anchor point also emerged. A powerful force locked on his body, pulling his soul upwards together with the things attached to it.

"Boom."

The orichalcum coffin was also taken away, and the huge force directly smashed and collapsed the entire tomb.

Then, locked by the power of the dream world, Orichalcum and all sealed objects were immediately in a state on the edge of reality and the illusory world.

Just like the soul of Helfas, it directly ignored the collision and penetrated the earth.

Although orichalcum is not a sealed object, it is still an extraordinary substance and can naturally be brought directly into the dream world.

The noise he caused this time was really big.

It was completely different from when he went to the dream world with just a flying cloak, and it felt obviously much slower.

Perhaps it was because he wanted to take away a lot more things this time, and the passage to the dream world opened for him was a bit narrow, so the passage to the dream world was opened to release strong fluctuations of extraordinary power.

Helfas felt himself floating across the sky in a state between reality and illusion, sitting on the copper coffin and rising continuously.

He saw the temple first.

Then he saw himself rising out of the huge hole.

Finally, look out over the entire world.

And when he was leaving the present world little by little and leaving the Black Iron City.

The sealed objects in the copper coffin are also undergoing drastic changes.

Just relying on an orichalcum coffin can no longer suppress their full power.

In particular, the sealed book that was held by Helfas' previous body began to grow in number of pages.

Page after page, they keep multiplying, and the true name of the sealed object is recorded on each page.

It didn't stop even when the pages were full.

It actually split into another book immediately.

They split one after another, and finally turned from one book into nine books, scattered on both sides of the body of Helfas's previous life.

But the soul of Helfas sitting on the copper coffin discovered something abnormal.

Because he discovered that during this process, his body was still lying peacefully in the copper coffin, instead of the copper coin he had carried with him before.

"Why did you bring my body with you?"

"Is it also considered an extraordinary substance?"

Helfas was not surprised, but instead felt worried.
-
In the Black Iron Dragon Palace.

Mier: "It's the power coming from the kingdom of gods. Someone is using the power of ritual deep in the gate of the earth."

The Black Iron Dragon is not unfamiliar with this feeling. Every time they use the Black Iron Sealing Scale, they can see the power of the pillar coming from the kingdom of the gods.

Hriban looked at the blond knight: "Did you do it? Did you send someone to sneak into the temple?"

Blond Knight: "Whatever I want, I will call in openly, or ask for it directly."

Mir and Hriban believed it, because the other party was indeed this kind of person. Dragons born in the most prosperous golden age had a kind of innate pride.

The confrontation ended instantly. Mier, Heriban and the three blond knights immediately rushed out of the palace and ran outside, looking in the direction of the Gate of the Earth.

They want to see who caused all this and what the other party's purpose is.

And in the Black Iron City.

All the dragon professionals who followed the blond knight and sneaked into the city quickly approached the location of the Gate of the Earth.

They also felt the power pouring in from the dream world, and worried that something was wrong with their leader, they immediately started running wildly on the streets and rooftops.

"what happened?"

"Who did it?"

"This was not in the plan!"

"What the hell is going on?"

The three men of Hriban ran quickly through the long corridor behind the Dragon Palace and arrived at the passage leading to the temple.

The three people were originally planning to rush down at once, wanting to see the initiator of everything.

But the moment he arrived, he immediately stopped.

Stopped on the edge of the cliff.

Because at this moment, their dragon eyes saw a soaring light falling from the sky, turning into a beam of light and falling in the center of the Gate of the Earth.

And a hazy shadow deep in the gate of the earth quickly rose from the darkness, breaking the barrier between reality and illusion, and quickly rose towards the sky.

In an instant, Mier, who had studied the power of rituals many times, blurted out.

"wrong."

"This is not a ritual. Power borrowed from the realm of the gods should not be like this."

she said with an emotion of absolute horror.

"This is someone who has opened the door to the Kingdom of the Gods and wants to enter the Kingdom of the Gods."

She wanted to turn her eyes to look at her brother, but she couldn't move her eyes away.

When Mil said this, although he didn't name anyone, a name immediately came to their minds.

Only those who are said to have descended from the Kingdom of the Gods can open the door to the Kingdom of the Gods!

Although Hriban had known that this day would come, he did not expect that it would come so suddenly and everything would happen in an instant.

"Black King Helfas!"

"Is he really here?"

When the blond knight on the side heard Mill's shout, his expression changed instantly and he became uncontrollably excited.

"To the kingdom of the gods?"

He hurriedly stepped forward, half of his shoes hanging on the edge of the cliff, letting the gravel under his feet fall into the darkness little by little.

He stared intently at the rapidly rising shadow, looking at the soul that broke through space and headed to the kingdom of the gods.

He saw it.

It was a being with the form of a god, and even the blazing light could not cover the other person's strange black hair.

The other party raised his head in the beam of light and looked at the entrance to the Kingdom of Gods in the sky, seemingly not seeing the three people standing on the edge of the cliff at all.

But the blond knight shouted excitedly, almost hoarse.

"God Helfas!"

"He is going to the kingdom of the gods."

"He's going there, to where the gods are."

His eyes showed strong desire, but his expression became extremely anxious in an instant.

After speaking.

He looked at the extremely wide cave and then took a few steps back.

Running, huge force exploded under his feet.

The blond knight unexpectedly jumped up high and rushed towards the being in the distant light. (End of chapter)
