There is a special quiet beauty at night by the river. The breeze blows the vegetation on the roadside and sways gently. Every breath is interacting with nature. The refreshing air seems to wash away the filth all over the body, making people feel relaxed and happy.<

/p>

In the ancient "Kuimen", when Chu Ge and his party arrived here, they happened to catch a light rain. The raindrops fell on the river, causing countless ripples, and pale white mist drifted on the river.

"The weather forecast clearly says it will rain heavily."

Chu Ge sighed. He had always paid attention to the weather here in the past few days before coming here, and came here on a rainy night, but this drizzle obviously did not meet his expectations.

It is best to have a storm, so that there will be no ships sailing on the river, and no fishermen will come to fish nearby, unless the addiction is so great that it rains or shines.

Considering that this visit may not go well, the owner and attendants of Bronze City will most likely use violence.

Chu Ge wanted to avoid innocent people as much as possible. The dragons' hands were too noisy, and he didn't want anyone to get involved unfortunately.

Fortunately, Retalos also came this time. She and Xiao Qian stayed on the shore and in the compartment of the RV. If there was an unexpected situation, they could provide support and look out for Chu Ge and Joris.

"Is the Bronze City buried under this body of water?" Chu Ge turned to Qiao Ruisi who was standing next to him and asked.

Joris nodded and said solemnly: "Yes, I have been here several times before, but I failed every time. There is a dragon attendant guarding the palace, so I can't sneak in easily. I can't be sure about Norton and Constant."

Your Highness Ding, are you awake now?"

"Norton changed his name to Li Xiong and assisted Gongsun Shu in proclaiming himself emperor. He was defeated by Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu. Before they were killed, the two Norton brothers left cocoons. It took nearly two thousand years. It took so long for the Dragon King to be resurrected through cocooning.

How long?" Chu Ge asked.

According to the information he knew, Norton, the King of Bronze and Fire, and Constantine were transferred into the cocoon in the early Eastern Han Dynasty, nearly two thousand years ago.

The Wang Gongchang Explosion in the Ming Dynasty, also known as the Apocalypse Explosion, occurred on the sixth day of May in the sixth year of the Apocalypse of the Ming Dynasty, that is, May 30, 1626. Ancient books record that there were visions before the explosion, and there were swarms of people.

Ghostly birds gather together, their chirping sound is like a wail.

In the history of hybrids, the Zhu royal family at that time led many hybrids to fight against the King of Earth and Mountain, defeating Jörmungandr and Fenrir. The brother and sister were transferred into the cocoon before their death.

It was less than four hundred years ago, but it turned out that Jormungandr and Fenrir woke up earlier than the Norton brothers. No, to be precise, earlier than Constantine.

The time gap between the Dragon King's cocoon and resurrection is too big.

"His Royal Highnesses Norton and Constantine did not make much preparation at the beginning. They did not ask powerful ethnic groups to sacrifice their blood to speed up their resurrection, and the location they chose was not good."

Joris bent down to pick up a pebble and threw it to the water, causing splashes and ripples spreading outward.

"The waters of the river can certainly conceal the visions they had when they woke up, but for the Lord of Bronze and Fire, terrains such as volcanoes and deserts are more suitable. However, the situation at the time was urgent and they had no extra choice.

"Of course, the main reason is that there are no powerful ethnic groups to offer sacrifices. If you use high-purity dragon blood to water it, you can naturally greatly shorten the time required for resurrection. It does not have to be dragon blood. Hybrids can also serve as sacrifices.

, as long as the quantity is sufficient, the blood will be purified through alchemy."

After Chu Ge listened carefully, he continued to ask: "Let's just dive into the water like this. Is there no other way?"

Joris shook his head and said: "At least I don't know that there are other ways to enter. Even if there is, it's not something I can know. After all, this is related to the hiding place of the Dragon King's resurrection. I probably don't want to be disturbed."<

/p>

"This is troublesome." Chu Ge looked embarrassed, "My swimming skills are not very good. I didn't dare to open my eyes underwater before."

Qiao Ruisi turned to look at Chu Ge and smiled bitterly: "No wonder you are wearing swimming goggles."

While they were talking, the two of them walked down the river from the shore. The water surface just reached their waists, and the deeper they went, the deeper they went.

Joris was more casual. He took off his jacket and top before entering the water and put them in the cab. He came out wearing only a pair of swimming trunks. His bulging muscles were exposed to the air. They were hard and had a metallic luster, as if they were made of steel.

Average.

Chu Ge put on a blue and black diving suit in the car, which was thicker and warmer. He also put on swimming goggles to make it easier to see underwater.

At first, Qiao Ruisi thought that Chu Ge was completely unnecessary. They might have to fight with the Dragon Warrior later. If there was a fight, none of the clothes would be of any use and they would be destroyed anyway.

Chu Ge explained that it was a sense of ritual. Ordinary clothes would get wet with water, but if he stood at the gate of the Bronze City without clothes, he would not feel good.

It's like a strange uncle comes to visit, and there is only one child in the palace, Constantine, and the influence is not good.

As for the two dragon attendants, they were naturally ignored by Chu Ge.

After diving four or five meters, my vision was dark, my whole body was soaked in cold moisture, and I was still a long way from the bottom of the water.

High-pitched dragon chants rang out in the quiet water, and Joris' whole body was filled with white light, as if there were dozens of glowing light bulbs gathered together, like a walking light source.

"It feels much more comfortable this way." Joris said, "I still prefer places with bright light."

He continued to release the effect of Word Spirit and Blazing Sun, stimulating the fire element in the Word Spirit field and producing strong visible light. But now that they are underwater, even if Joris is a second-generation species, the strongest effect that can be released is this.

.

If he were on land, he could almost turn into a small sun, lighting up most of the city with ease.

For dragons, the dark underwater environment will not affect their vision, but if there is sufficient light, it will be much easier to move.

Chu Ge originally wanted to say thank you, but he choked on the water. It was difficult to change some of his previous habits as a human being. He subconsciously took a breath through his nose and felt the stimulation of the sky.

He can now hold his breath for several hours without getting dizzy, but effective breathing can ensure that he is in the best condition. In addition to using his mouth and nose for pulmonary breathing, Chu Ge can also switch to body breathing.

This is not a unique ability of dragons. Ordinary people also have body breathing, but compared to nose and lung breathing, the efficiency of body breathing is negligible.

Life originated in the ocean, but human beings have lost the ability to live in the water. However, some hybrid species can rely on certain kinds of spirits to move around in the water for a long time.

Chu Ge followed Qiao Ruisi closely, and the two dived very fast. When the world's top diver saw this scene, he would only think that he was dazzled and hallucinating.

Rather than saying that the two of them dived by swinging their bodies and limbs, it is better to understand that they relied on the current to propel their bodies, like two torpedoes heading toward the bottom of the water.

In less than half a minute, they reached the bottom of the water, stepping on a pebble beach mixed with silt. Joris took the lead, but before taking two steps, Chu Ge and him stopped almost at the same time.
