After The Abyss Dragon Woke Up

"What's wrong, what's wrong, this is..."

With a white coat loosely draped over his shoulders, Zhuo Fu rushed out of the laboratory in a hurry.

He rubbed his eyes, his face showed a gloomy and irritable lack of sleep: "Please, do you guys know what time it is..."

As soon as the door was opened, Zhuo Fu's remaining words got stuck in his throat.

It's Mu Heng.

Wrapped in a stiff overcoat with the chill of the night, a pair of silver-blue eyes were calm and cold, silently looking over.

I am grass.

Zhuo Fu woke up with a jerk, and all the drowsiness was thrown away.

He lowered his head to confirm the time——

Wait, it's not working hours, that's right.

Then why did this evil star suddenly appear at the door of the laboratory!

Mu Heng took off his gloves slowly and walked in by himself.

"..." Looking at the empty corridor, Zhuo Fu's mouth twitched, and he said dryly:

"Come in, you're welcome."

He took a deep breath, closed the door, and turned to look at the uninvited guest behind him: "What are you doing?"

Hearing a blunt sound, Mu Heng put something wrapped in cloth on the table.

Zhuo Fu was taken aback: "?"

Mu Heng didn't answer, but peeled off the outer layer of fabric layer by layer, exposing the shiny metal surface.

It was a western style long sword, the blade was silvery white, as bright as silver.

A roaring evil dragon was coiled on the hilt of the sword, with huge wings spread out, and a long tail covered with barbed scales wrapped around the sword body.

Zhuo Fu gasped: "My God, is this...?"

"Yes." Mu Heng nodded slightly. He lowered his eyes and slid across the blade of the sword intently. His eyes were slightly dark, like a deep undercurrent under the surface of a cloudy sea.

"It's so beautiful..." Zhuo Fu couldn't help sighing.

He looked up at the man in front of him, and frowned suspiciously:

"However, why did you bring it here?"

Shouldn't this kind of thing be hidden deep in some kind of safe, waiting to be passed on to future generations or something?

Mu Heng: "It made some movement just now."

Zhuofu: "... Huh?"

After a few seconds of silence, he blinked and asked tentatively, "Well, you know it's a sword, right?"

What the hell is the movement? !

Mu Heng rubbed the pattern on the hilt with his fingertips, raised his eyes, and said irrelevantly: "You said earlier that the phantom species that appeared this time might be a dragon."

As a colleague who has worked together for many years, Zhuo Fu immediately understood what the other party meant without any further words.

"Wait, wait! I didn't say that before!"

He was startled, and hastily explained: "Phantasmagoria has not appeared for tens of thousands of years! This time it is likely to be a false alarm, and this has happened before..."

Mu Heng interrupted him: "But there is a possibility."

"..." Zhuo Fu was silent for a long time before he said dryly, "Yes."

"Very good." Mu Heng put on the gloves on his own, and said, "I'll leave it here for the time being and figure out what happened."

Zhuo Fu stared at the expensive hot potato on his desk, speechless for a long time.

He has never regretted his oral sex a few days ago so much.

——What are you talking about when you say you're free?

Mu Heng turned and walked out, but before he took a few steps, he was stopped by Zhuo Fu who had regained his senses:

"Eh, wait..."

Mu Heng looked back.

"If... I mean if!" Zhuo Fu hesitated, and continued: "If there is a phantom species, of course, the possibility is very small, and if it is, it is really a dragon...then, you plan to do what?"

"Dragon?" Mu Heng repeated the word, slightly curling the corners of his lips.

He seldom smiled, but this action did not soften the cold and hard facial lines of his outline, but instead, it was like a sharp blade unsheathed, and the split aggressiveness suddenly appeared.

"Extinction is their best destination." Mu Heng said.

After saying that, he turned to leave.

The room returned to silence.

Zhuo Fu stood there blankly, looking at the closed door not far away.

He couldn't help but recall Mu Heng's appearance when he first met him - at that time, the other party hadn't become the most recognized human being, and he wasn't getting less and less human like he is now. The most suitable adjective for him at that time was ...

Fight maniacs.

After that day, Shi Pai searched everything inside and out, but found no traces. It seems that the most reasonable explanation is that they escaped after being put into the simulation room, but Shi Rui always felt that something was wrong. It seems that something is not quite right.

But, could it be that Shi An killed those monsters and destroyed the corpses?

This idea flashed through Shi Rui's mind, but he quickly snorted it and put it behind him - how is it possible?

Even if Shi An possessed magic power miraculously, it would be impossible to single-handedly deal with five crazy and raised monsters, let alone without leaving a trace.

However, that vague uneasiness never disappeared.

So during this period of time, Shi Rui became quite quiet, and never came to trouble Shi An again.

And it hasn't been smooth sailing for Shi'an recently.

He repeatedly confirmed with the monster worm many times, and the other party firmly insisted that on the night when he came back from the outside, it saw hard scales emerging from Shi An's body.

But no matter how hard Shi An tried, he could no longer call out his scales in a waking state.

He sat cross-legged on the ground in frustration, looking down at his empty hands.

Or not.

Human palms look thin and fragile, with no scales or claws, and the five fingers are long and thin, which is weird, and the skin is still that pale that hasn't seen the sun for a long time.

- No matter how you look at it, it's not pleasing to the eye!

Shi An became more and more angry as he watched, clenched his fist and slammed it on the floor beside him with a "boom".

"..."

Seeing that the young man's expression became even colder and gloomy, the monster approached cautiously, and comforted him, "Don't worry, my lord. Tomorrow is the start of school. When we sneak into the academy and find the gap, we should be able to..."

There was a gap in the cold expression on Shi An's face.

I saw him sniffing, rubbing the fist he used to hit the ground just now, with a mournful face:

"pain."

When he was a dragon, he was protected by scales. He almost never got hurt, let alone felt pain. Now that he lost that indestructible armor, Shi An realized that he was so afraid of pain!

Looking at the young man who was rubbing his hands aggrievedly in front of him, the devil couldn't help falling into a long silence:

"..."

It is completely unable to connect this pain-sensitive and delicate human being with the evil star that killed the world that day!

That day, after killing the first three in the blink of an eye, Shi'an left two that did not burn to death directly.

——and the next scene, the devil worm could hardly bear to think about it.

The legs were ripped off, the blood was drained, the belly was cut open, and the head was twisted off.

Shi'an used the most primitive method to control the amount of magic power in the bodies of those monsters, and then sent them to the detection device to test the minimum magic power threshold that it could detect.

The most frightening thing was that even though he was doing such a cruel and terrifying thing, the young man still had that innocent and curious look on his face, like a child, without the slightest bit of evil or guilt.

Although the devil worm has seen many scary and cruel guys in the abyss before, this is the first time he has seen such creepy ones.

"correct."

Suddenly, Shi An raised his eyes to look at the magic insect. The expression on his face didn't change much, but there was an expression of unknown meaning in those deep black eyes.

"!" The God-wandering monster couldn't help but shudder, and stuttered a little: "Why, what's the matter??"

Shi An showed a thoughtful expression: "You just said that we are going to sneak into the school tomorrow?"

"...Yes, yes." The monster was stunned.

Isn't that so?

"Not us." Shi An said with a smile, "Only you."

Devil:! ! !

The smile on Shi An's face was sincere and harmless, but in the eyes of the monster, it seemed like the call of death: "But it doesn't matter, I have already figured out the method, and I will help you."

"..."

The last miserable broken bodies of the other two worms flashed in the mind of the devil worm, and the six slender legs began to tremble in fright.

——Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh,,.

the next day.

The housekeeper drove Shi'an to the unified pick-up station, and told him all kinds of details with great concern, from life to study, to getting along with roommates, almost everything was included.

"...The college has sent someone to pick up the luggage this morning, and it should be put directly in your dormitory..."

"...If you meet that Shi Rui at school, avoid it as much as you can, don't start any big conflicts, be careful not to hurt yourself..."

Finally, before Shi An was about to doze off, the pick-up vehicle arrived.

The housekeeper looked reluctant to leave, while Shi An's back looked extremely impatient - I don't know if it was because he was really looking forward to the future life, or because he was really tormented by the housekeeper's nagging.

The Academy of Capable Persons will send vehicles to take all the first-year freshmen to the almost independent and closed campus outside the city.

The vehicle is large, and the engine is mainly powered by magic, which is quiet and fast.

There is no independent box in the car, but the design space between the seats is very ingenious. The semi-enclosed glass partition not only provides a certain sense of distance, but also allows freshmen to be familiar with each other.

When Shi An walked up, the whispers in the carriage stopped for an instant, and everyone looked at him at the same time, with strange and strange eyes, not much kindness.

Shi Rui sat in the middle row, surrounded by a few freshmen, who had faintly become the small core of the whole group.

Seeing Shi An coming up, he smiled and waved to Shi An, wanting him to sit beside him: "Brother, here."

The position in the car is arranged according to the level of the test.

But the people in the back row were almost full, but there was a large space in the front row, and there were almost few people sitting.

——Everyone knows that there are actual combat items in the test after entering the academy, and the ranking obtained in that actual combat will affect their subsequent ratings. Every year, some people have accidents in actual combat, so everyone is very worried. Discreet and low-key.

No one wants to be the first bird to be pegged.

As far as Shi Rui is concerned, no matter whether Shi An comes or not, there is no loss for him.

If you come, you are overwhelmed, if you don't come, you don't know how to praise.

Shi An sat down in the first vacant seat at the head of the morning, then yawned lazily, and closed his eyes.

The sound of sucking in cold air sounded inconspicuously in the compartment.

"..."

Shi Rui's expression and movements froze at the same time.

Grass.

——He really didn't expect that the other party was neither self-sufficient nor flattering.

Shi An was leaning against the car window drowsily, his chin was moving, and he looked as if he was about to fall asleep.

The monster sneaked out of his sleeve, glanced behind him, and then whispered in a low voice: "Master Demon Dragon, that...how do I feel that the atmosphere seems to be a bit out of place?"

Shi An bluntly raised his eyelids: "Is there?"

"Yes, I have!"

The texture of the air is different!

Shi An thought about it seriously, and said, "I see."

Demon worm: "Huh?"

Shi An: "This dress must be too ugly."

Demon worm: "..."

Ah? ? ?

What the hell is this?

"It's all the housekeeper's fault for digging out my favorite suit of clothes from my suitcase, not only not allowing me to wear them, but also not allowing me to bring them to school," Shi An sighed in frustration, and whispered in dissatisfaction : "This human's aesthetics are really bad."

The devil worm recalled the feeling that his eyes were almost blinded when he saw the clothes for the first time:

"..."

After a long silence, a particularly gratifying emotion emerged spontaneously from the bottom of my heart.

—Thank you, butler.

Really.

When Shi An woke up again, the car had already arrived at its destination.

He rubbed his eyes, yawned, followed the crowd out of the car in a daze, and walked forward.

A high-pitched male voice came from not far away: "The first round of written examination is about to begin, please prepare yourself."

According to the tradition of the college, the written test is conducted on the first day of admission, and the order of appearance in the next two rounds of tests is determined by the results of the written test.

The freshmen followed the guiding teacher forward and entered an empty hall.

It looked almost the same as the simulated space that day, with a tall iron-gray metal door standing outside, and the newly admitted freshmen walked by one by one and sat at the table where the written test was about to take place.

Shi An walked at the end of the line and took the magic worm out of his cuff.

The devil worm glanced at the familiar scene in front of him, then turned his head to look at the familiar human being pinching him: "..."

It took a deep breath, then closed its eyes as if it were death: "Come on!"

But until Shi An let go of his hand, the expected pain did not appear.

The devil worm opened his eyes blankly: "Eh...? Is it over?"

Shi An glanced at it strangely: "It's over."

What?really over? !

The monster quickly felt it.

Sure enough, the magic power in his body has been controlled to a negligible amount, and even the most sophisticated instruments cannot detect it.

"But...can..." It was dumbfounded and stammered: "But that day..."

"Oh, that," Shi An blinked: "You are already my subject, so it doesn't need to be so troublesome to reduce your magic power."

"I just needed to test the detection threshold of the instrument that day," he said.

But before the monster could breathe a sigh of relief, the young man continued to say in an understatement: "...By the way, I am also curious about what the internal structure of the current abyssal species looks like."

Demon worm: "???"

Shi An seemed to feel its dull gaze, lowered his head and smiled at it, looking beautiful and sunny.

Demon worm: "..."

It trembled, and slowly looked away.

——Please, stop laughing, or I will have human PTSD.

Demon Insect: I would call it a spiritual attack
