Under the Red Dragon

"You must know that suffering is the only reason for the emergence of consciousness."

"Without one's own consciousness, it is a great sorrow for a dragon!"

The adult silver dragon, Chris Tiana, stood under the pure white moonlight, like a sacred moonlit dragon. Her silver scales flowed with moonlight, holy and sublime.

The bronze dragon, Gross, and the bronze dragon, Natareli, quietly guarded this silver dragon, silently watching the rarely quiet five-colored dragons.

The metallic dragons that had submitted to the progenitor gold dragon, Ericson, were still observing from a distance, but many had already dispersed.

Only most of the five-colored dragons remained, not only because they submitted to power and authority, hoping to rebel, hoping for freedom.

But also because in their chaotic hearts, they also yearned for salvation from chaos. The chromatic dragons in the world were originally chaotic, and the world was supposed to be like this.

It was just that the appearance of one dragon made them feel that it shouldn't be like this.

That dragon conveyed its ideas and spread its thoughts, so the world began to be slightly changed.

From that progenitor red dragon, to the Hogmora dragon group, to the Golden Empire, and now to the silver dragon Chris, perhaps it will soon be the turn of these chromatic dragons.

The white clouds in the night sky have remained unchanged for thousands of years, but tonight's moonlight is particularly bright.

The dragons roared in submission, and all was silent, as if waiting for the silver dragon to count the cold stars on the ground.

The silver dragon Chris looked at these five-colored dragons without revealing her arrogance.

Because she deeply understood that what these dragons feared was not her, but another dragon.

What these dragons were waiting for was not her, but another dragon.

But another dragon had not yet arrived, and the ideas of another dragon had already sprouted and taken root in the silver dragon Chris.

Like a bell breaking jade, the dragon language sounded, and the silver dragon Chris said softly: "Karon Hogmora said that the dragon race, the dragon species, regardless of any scale color or bloodline, is born with powerful strength and infinite potential."

"But the dragon's own shackles are like Ericson's kingdom, which restricts the dragon's potential, not only because of stupidity, but also because of the established nature."

The silver dragon gently raised her head and smiled: "He said, can't what others have established be changed? Existence does not mean rationality, he insists on changing it. Not only will he change it, but he will also lead all willing beings to change the established rules of this world!"

"If reality does not meet his expectations and logical ideas, then he will change reality!"

The pupils of the dragons with different scales were sparkling, like pairs of bright lamps, radiating bright light, looking at the rationality and wisdom in the moonlit pupils of the silver dragon Chris.

It was as if they could see the thoughts and ideas of that dragon, millions of miles away to the north of Akanea, through the eyes of this adult silver dragon. The light of wisdom shone brightly.

"Dragons have power, so they should pursue wisdom that matches it. By using wisdom to control power, they can leverage more power with one point of strength."

"If the dragon's natural power is used, how much power can be leveraged with wisdom?"

"Power comes from wisdom, and with deeper wisdom, power is readily available!" the silver dragon Chris said softly.

This silver dragon did not simply and directly promote the ideas of the Golden Empire, but took power, which all living beings crave, as an entry point.

This is a beautiful inducement, and it can also plant the seeds of enlightenment in the hearts of those eager dragons, and give these lazy dragons more motivation.

"Creatures who cannot carry through to the end are absolute weaklings, and the poison of chaotic desires is the reason for your suffering. What you have done deserves such suffering."

"You are not truly ignorant. True ignorance is not having any awareness of your own heart, but fortunately you have noticed your own heart and voluntarily stayed here to listen to my voice."

One dragon after another couldn't help but grin hideously, revealing their fangs, looking at the three dragons with serious expressions with instinctive hostility.

"The Dragon Emperor of the Golden Empire conveys a decree to all five-colored dragons and dragon species, hoping that you, congratulating you, can become the masters of your own will and wisdom,"

"I ask you to listen to this sacred decree!"

The silver dragon Chris said solemnly: "As long as you recognize the ideas of the Golden Empire, agree with the thoughts of the Golden Empire, and actively embrace the Golden Empire, then the Dragon Emperor of the Empire will represent the entire civilization and open its arms to accept you!"

Bang, bang, bang,

A young female black dragon stepped out from the dragon group and came to the front of the silver dragon Chris, quietly watching the silver dragon's sublime gaze. She lowered her head and said softly: "Please give me orders, Chris. I will follow you, pursuing the path you speak freely, until I embrace my true self!"

The silver dragon Chris looked at the first dragon to come out, revealing her crescent-shaped teeth, and said softly with a smile: "Change means that maybe you will be like me, embarking on a path of no return. This is the base camp of good dragons. We will not be understood by most dragons, and will be hated and attacked by them!"

"What is your name, black, future true dragon!"

The female black dragon raised her thin head and said proudly: "My name is Cecilia, but I am not so pessimistic. I don't mind being hated, disgusted, or attacked by others. I think wanting to be liked by others is a real weakness in itself!"

"Then, you will be in charge of this gift from the Dragon Emperor for me," the silver dragon Chris grasped the heavy scroll in her claws and handed it to Cecilia. She said softly: "You will be inseparable from me. Everything I know will be taught to you without reservation!"

The young black dragon Cecilia nodded solemnly, tightly holding the heavy and precious scroll in her left claw, squatting and standing on the side of the three adult metallic dragons.

"Can I, can I, be accepted too, be forgiven too?" The middle-aged female green dragon, Salenna, stepped out, and the cunning and insidious gaze could hardly hide this female dragon's desire.

Intraspecies cannibalism is also a taboo thing among chromatic dragons, but she has no choice. She knows the nature of the progenitor gold dragon, Ericson, because she is a green dragon who is well-versed in people's hearts.

If she didn't use this kind of absolutely violent and cruel thing to deter the other five-colored dragons, how could the progenitor gold dragon Ericson maintain his hypocritical majesty and foolish nobility?

The adult silver dragon Chris Tiana shook her head gently and said: "I don't know!"

"Everything is judged by actions, not by intentions, but your intentions at that time may not have come from your heart."

"But you can still seek a path like mine," the silver dragon Chris said softly: "Embarking on this path means completely changing the original fracture, changing the past and moving towards a new beginning and future, which is much more difficult for a middle-aged dragon!"

"This has begun to be almost a reconstruction of three views, like peeling skin and cutting bones, while completely destroying your original spiritual dependence. Without breaking through the limitations of self and reshaping yourself, you cannot succeed!"

The middle-aged green dragon Salenna was silent for a while, and spat out a hard dragon language in a hoarse voice: "Even if I fail, I want to know how far I fall from the finish line, which is better than now!"

The adult silver dragon nodded, raised her head, looked at the other hesitant dragons, and smiled: "Do you have to be a wild dog or jackal with its spine pulled out before you want to become a roaring beast dragon?"

"Those who are determined, come to my left, those who cannot make up their minds, leave to the right!"

The moonlight was like water, and under the hazy veil, two mysterious guests were hidden, but neither these dragons, nor the legendary titans and legendary gold dragons that had appeared, had discovered these guests hidden in the moonlight.

The tall and thin body was wrapped in a gorgeous robe, and the middle-aged mage was as thin as a desert poplar, but the young mage was as strong as a forest tiger.

"Knowing that it is difficult to succeed, wanting to change the dragon's innate bloodline nature is almost impossible. Even if I have studied related topics, I think it is a fantasy,"

The elderly mage exclaimed: "This is an incredible and counter-logical behavior in the eyes of most people in the world, but these dragons know it is impossible and do it. I can already feel that the spirit of a great civilization is being born!"

The young mage curled his lips indifferently and said: "Teacher, what's so great about this? You have taken me through so many planes and seen so many civilizations, is it still rare!"

The elderly mage glared his eyes and blew his neatly trimmed short beard loudly, "You know nothing. This is a civilization belonging to dragons, a real civilization, not a country formed by power."

"Also, look at others, do you think you are proud of touching the threshold of legend at the age of twenty-one? Do you think you are proud of being known as the number one genius among young mages in the world? That dragon would slap you to death as easily as slapping a fly."

"According to the information we have gathered, according to the dragon's age, he is not much older than you. As a dragon in the mortal world, being able to achieve such achievements is already unimaginable for a waste like you."

The young mage shrank his head and muttered: "I am a waste, then what are you? I remember you were sixty years old when you became a legend."

The elderly mage was furious and slapped the young mage on the head, knocking it loudly.

"I didn't have a good teacher like myself back then. For you to be promoted to legend, I also took you to various planes to experience and learn, and find your own goals and path. If I had a teacher as good as myself, I would be much stronger than you!"

"I tell you, if after these experiences, you still haven't found your own ideas and become an ordinary legend like other wastes, I will throw you into the 166th floor of the endless abyss and let you fend for yourself, so as not to embarrass me!"

"Get ready, I'll take you to see the power of those divine beings again!"

……

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty?"

In the wide room, a pair of deep blue pupils were rapidly magnified in front of him, and a soft call awakened Karon, who had been silent for a while.

Archmage of the Holy Domain, Mofanred, one of the Kings of Knowledge of the Golden Empire, looked worriedly at Karon Hogmora, who had recovered.

Not because of Karon Hogmora's identity as emperor, but because Mofanred regarded Karon as a rare friend who could have a pleasant conversation with him.

The others were always unable to accurately understand what Mofanred said and what he wanted to express. Even Antagena, the green dragon who had ingested spices, was a fool in Mofanred's eyes.

Antagena, the green dragon, is very smart, but smart does not mean wisdom!

Only Karon Hogmora could communicate with this Archmage of the Holy Domain easily and freely.

This is the loneliness of the intelligent, not because Mofanred thinks highly of himself.

Karon came back to his senses and shook his head gently. The human-like face, the crown on the head of the Lord of Humans, was woven from golden silk laurel leaves, shining brightly.

"It's okay,"

Karon said with a light smile, revealing the smile that mortal creatures could not resist its charm.

"I just always feel that there is a sky beyond the sky, and there are people beyond people, but I didn't expect that some of the potential enemies I had imagined were not as powerful as I thought, but were weaker than I expected. Perhaps my goal should not have included them in the first place."

Mofanred smiled calmly and said: "With Your Majesty's wisdom and talent, no matter which world you are in, you are destined to become the strongest at the top."

"Being able to be your enemy should be their honor!"

Karon walked forward slowly, tilting his head and smiling: "Mofanred, do you know why I like chatting with you so much? One is because of your wisdom, and the other is because of your character. You don't like being pretentious, and you don't like lying."

"And the praise of honest people is far more pleasant than those praises that are given out of fear and flattery!"

Mofanred shook his head calmly and said: "I am not praising Your Majesty, I am just telling the truth."

"Hahaha, you see, that's how it is," Karon laughed loudly, with an extremely happy expression.

In the room that was so wide that it was difficult to see the end, the doors of one neat laboratory after another were tightly closed, and occasionally busy experimental scholars and mages could be seen on the wide road.

However, these scholars and mages hardly raised their heads. Even if they saw the laboratory's chief supervisor Mofanred and the emperor of the empire, they would just greet them softly.

Some scholars and mages were because they had never seen the human face incarnation of the Emperor of the Golden Empire, and others were because of the regulations in the laboratory: in a place of learning, there is no need to be too polite.

Karon didn't care about these formalities either, and walked towards his destination, talking and laughing with the Archmage of the Holy Domain.

"Your Majesty, there are few questions that can confuse me, but some of the proposals of the Imperial Central Council recently have always puzzled me,"

Mofanred said softly: "The desire for longevity, the desire for immortality, should be the pursuit of every mortal, but those original officials were able to reject such temptation, which is really incomprehensible to me."

Although Mofanred has a lofty position, he has not been involved in politics and power. This conversation was only out of this Archmage's curiosity to seek answers.

Karon smiled softly and said: "Every creature will be limited by their own knowledge, the environment of the times, and wisdom. Your wisdom is not in this area, and you are also limited by your own background and the environment of the times, which is normal."

“In this world, there is no truth, only perspectives. Just like the purpose of my communication with you is not to discover or obtain truth, but to gain new perspectives.”

“Communication is to see the other party's reasoning, not to persuade them. This tolerance of 'opposition' is closer to truth itself.”

Karon laughed, “You haven’t communicated with them, so naturally you can’t understand their purpose and thoughts, nor can you break through your own limitations to gain new perspectives.”

“The reason they resist extending their lifespan is because, after thinking, they believe that mortal beings shouldn't live too long, as that would lead to the stagnation of the empire and even the social structure, because the vast majority of people will not change their minds until they die.”

“So, in their view, if people don't die, they will be trapped by old ideas, and the empire will not be able to maintain its will to progress.”

Morfranred nodded, instantly understanding the words of the Emperor. He couldn't help but admire, “These people are truly worthy of respect, but according to their ideas, this is undoubtedly an unsolvable problem.”

Karon shook his head, “It’s not really an unsolvable problem. When looking at issues, you shouldn't only look at them from one perspective.”

“Just like their concern that aging leads to conservative and rigid thinking, I believe it can be solved from another perspective.”

“The most fundamental factor influencing a person, or any living being, is their body.”

“The characteristics, hormones, and related microscopic substances in the body can easily influence a living being's subtle emotional direction, thereby expanding the influence and affecting a person's thinking.”

“Young, short-lived species will obviously have more magnificent ambitions and be more receptive to change and reform than adult and elderly short-lived species. This is not only an ideological influence but also a physiological one.”

Karon stopped his steps, standing in front of an ordinary plant, and smiled, “You only need to adjust their physiological characteristics and related microscopic influencing hormones to be like when they were young, and they will be more willing to accept change and will hardly maintain rigid thinking in the empire's progressive trend.”

“If even that cannot change them, then they are obstacles to progress and will be completely crushed!”

Morfranred couldn't help but admire, “Your Majesty's wisdom is truly unimaginable to me. This is the way of thinking and problem-solving that I find difficult to learn.”

“Hahaha, of course, His Majesty's wisdom is deeper than anyone I, Titch, have ever seen,” the magical alchemy madman, Grand Professor Titch of the Golden Empire Alchemy Academy, walked out of the laboratory.

He subconsciously pinched his bloated pants and laughed heartily, “Your Majesty, Lord Morfranred, my experiment has made some progress, please come in!”

Karon and Morfranred didn't mind the alchemy madman's behavior. Anyway, Titch's reputation had already spread throughout the Golden Empire.

This guy not only drinks magic potions that enhance his concentration and energy like water, in order to research magical alchemy topics in his spare time while inspecting the Alchemy Academy, but also tries out various bizarre organs.

Titch also opened an alchemy surgery shop in the city, specializing in performing surgeries for those who are not satisfied with their firepower, in order to obtain the experimental data he wants.

All of this is to replace his organs with many types of giant elephant organs from the Frost Plains.

Obviously, this guy has succeeded.

There was nothing dangerous in the laboratory; instead, it looked more like a plant garden, or more like a silkworm farm.

In this laboratory, only one type of plant grows. On the branches and leaves of these trees, which seem no different from ordinary plants, there are creatures crawling like silkworms, gnawing on the leaves and roots of these plants.

These are parasitic banyan trees cultivated from the seeds of slanted-leaf banyan trees through magic potions and alchemy rituals, possessing all the characteristics of slanted-leaf banyan trees and amplifying them.

The silkworms crawling on these parasitic banyan trees are also experimental species that the magic alchemy professor Titch has cultivated over countless hours of selection and breeding, and finally formed after the bloodline gene adjustment of the Magic Research Department—Nest Worms.

“Your Majesty, after eleven generations of Nest Worm iteration, the silk threads spit out by these worms after eating already have abilities like parasitic banyan trees, and the bloodline coding has tended to stabilize the evolutionary state,”

When the magic alchemy madman Titch spoke about his professional field, his slightly wretched expression became serious. He pointed to the green thread-like veins behind those silkworms and whispered, “This is the source of their abilities. If mature bodies like these are cultivated with the 'true' power of those living beings, perhaps we can soon obtain the first batch of mutated raw material embryos.”

“Using this mature body for mutation, the resulting experimental body should soon have abilities with the nature of 'power of truth'.”

Karon nodded in satisfaction and affirmed, “Then start cultivating the first generation of 'World Devourer' experimental bodies. We have at least ten years, Titch. I hope you can cultivate what I want as soon as possible.”

“That's not difficult,” Titch touched his head and chuckled, “Your Majesty, when the 'World Devourer' is cultivated, would you like to experiment with a summoner of a foreign god to see if it can be integrated into it and simulate the operation of the power of a foreign god?”

Karon shook his head, “There's no need to alarm the power behind the other party for the time being. I have a better experimental target!”

Thank you for the tickets! Sleeping!
