Chapter 727 I really turned into a dragon now (5700)
What happened at the door of the church is something that can happen anywhere.
It is not uncommon for a human child to learn to brag, and it is a scene that is more dangerous than anyone he knows!
For a remote place like Harrison Port, the average child may not even be able to spell the Grant family's surname correctly, so naturally they cannot be expected to name the ascendants other than the viscount and bishop.
And in the end, who won?
The answer is self-evident.
"Now that things have happened, there is no doubt that my brother is the strongest in Nanling!"
There were a lot of children around who were eating melons, fish, beans and cold jellyfish. Elan, who was eating grilled sausage, used his natural momentum and words to intimidate them, and for a moment they were unable to refute.
Coupled with the good reputation that Ian has brought to him over the years as someone else's child, everyone suddenly has the feeling that he is right.
——Hey, the master alchemist in the imperial capital was fighting against his disciples, but you ended up fighting against your brother in Harrison Port?
And when I played it, Elan really stopped stuttering, and his sentences became clearer and smoother!
Ian felt quite strange in his heart.
He didn't know that Ellan was actually his die-hard fan. But if he thought about it carefully, it wasn't surprising. It was normal for his younger brother to like him!
If Elan doesn't brag about himself, then he has to reflect on why his majestic image is not reflected in the other person's heart!
Not to mention, what Elan said is true.
"Ah, brother!"
Ellan, who was bragging about Ian with his friends, saw Ian walking out of the church door, his eyes lit up immediately, and then he ran over.
Ian didn't care if the other party's oily hand slapped his waist after he had just eaten kebabs and grilled fish. Anyway, he was a sublimate of the water attribute, and removing the oil stains was just a matter of thought.
"good."
Ian touched his brother's head and said kindly: "Don't be so arrogant when discussing with your friends next time. Even if we are the strongest in the future, we have to keep a low profile now. Do you understand?"
"Uh-huh!"
Ellan nodded in agreement seriously, but was a little confused: "But I'm not arrogant. I'm just telling the truth!"
"You don't understand this." Ian sighed and shook his head: "For genius brothers like us, stating the facts is the greatest arrogance."
"In order to prevent them from having too much psychological pressure, next time Elan, just lie. Put me in second or third place. When I go to a bigger place, I will be more humble and say that we can stabilize the top eight.
.”
"Yeah." Elan agreed without hesitation: "Okay, next time I will say that you are the second strongest brother."
"In the church, just say Grandpa Bai Wu is the best, and in other places, just say the Viscount is the best!"
"Yes, Not Bad!"
Ian was very pleased that Ellan had revealed this, but he rubbed the other person's soft white cheeks vigorously: "You are very smart, Ellan, then let me test you. What if two people are present at the same time?"
"Then brother is third!"
"Okay, okay! My Elan is the smartest!" Ian was very satisfied.
——That’s it! The children of the Yinfeng family should have the ability to adapt to the situation and talk to people!
"Don't teach bad children!"
On the other side, Elder Pude's voice sounded. The old man who had just bought three coconuts looked helplessly at Ian teaching children to lie: "Are you done talking to Bai Wu?"
"yes."
Putting down the hand that was rubbing Elan's face, Ian took the coconut with two holes punched in and inserted into the reed pipe from Elder Puder: "Over there in the redwood forest, people from the Netherworld Cult are also coming. The speed of our action
You have to hurry up."
"Oh?" Elder Pude couldn't help but feel a little nervous after hearing this. He frowned: "Are they also interested in foreseeing Futaba?"
"No." Ian said. He took the step now and took Elder Puder and Elan to the seaside outside the city: "They are obviously interested in me - foreseeing Futaba is just an excuse. The Suming Cult should have foreseen it.
There is something about me, but I found that it was blocked by a prophet."
"So they sent people to Harrison Port to inquire about the situation of the Huaiguang Church. The Huaiguang Church couldn't confirm that I had prophetic abilities, so they could only tell them the news about foreseeing Futaba."
"This just happens to be relevant to us again."
"The Four Orthodox Religions."
The old man took a sip of coconut juice and said in a deep voice: "You said last time that you wanted to gradually show your prophetic ability. It seems that this is the opportunity."
"With the endorsement of any one of the four orthodox religions, your ability will not be doubted or you will encounter danger.
Ian nodded: "Yes. That's why I came here specifically to ask about Bishop Baiwu's comments."
His communication with Bishop Baiwu was very simple, but he could hear the other party's hidden meaning.
Yes. The Suming Cult found signs of a prophet in Nanling but for no reason. Why did the other party suddenly discover that there was a prophet in Nanling?
That must be because something happened in Nanling and they tried to predict it, but to no avail.
To be honest, it's not arrogance. Ian feels that judging from the current situation in Nanling, the people and things that are qualified to be predicted are basically related to him.
And the scope of the field that the Netherworld Cult will try to predict. Coincidentally, Ian is also involved in it.
(Temporary Hades?)
Walking on the road to the coast outside the city, Ian pondered in his heart: (Obviously, the Sui Ming Cult has a prophecy method similar to the Huaiguang Church to detect natural disasters. They should have predicted the temporary Hades I was preparing, or something else.
Similar technology but I don’t know where it is because I am a prophet)
(And they obtained the existence of the prophetic Futaba from various channels, and believed that it caused the misjudgment, so they sent an investigation team to investigate. It just so happened that Elder Pude was also making preparations to improve my prophetic ability. He also
In investigating this)
(In this way, the Huaiguang Church, which already knew a lot of news, can confirm that I am indeed a prophet this time - what a coincidence)
However, if the Underworld Cult really has the means to detect technology like Temporary Hades, then they are definitely well aware of Archduke Thorin's plan to destroy the king.
And the Suming Cult did not prevent the birth of the Dead King. They couldn't stop it, or are they also the promoters behind the technology of the Dead King?
It's all possible.
Ian shook his head. He didn't want to think about this for the time being. The Netherworld Cult will definitely come to visit him in the future. Whether it will be cooperation or something else will be discussed later.
No matter what moves the opponent makes, he just needs to wait in Xia Hui Ling.
As for now
"Go find Shark first."
This time, Ian took Elder Puder and Ellan directly to the beach, just to find Shark Shark and Hua An, so that they could go to the Great Maze of the South China Sea together.
On the way, Ian checked Elan's body in detail.
Nowadays, Elan can be regarded as half a psychic. With the help of the Huaiguang Church's meditation method, Ian can even see some primitive spiritual matter appearing in Elan's body.
This is the advantage of psykers. They will naturally give birth to souls. Although there is no magic potion to enter the ranks of Ascendants, as long as they have psionic energy, they are Ascended. This is the iron law on Terra.
And Ian was also keenly aware that the so-called connection between Elan and the 'crystalline creature' was not in the body, but in the soul.
What does this mean?
With this in mind, they came to a seafood breeding factory run by Bai Zhimin.
It can also be regarded as the entrance and exit where Shark Shark and Qingchao Scott met before, and where Hua An Frost Butterfly took Ellan to go out to play.
Qingchao has been waiting here for a long time.
"Boss."
From a distance, I saw Ian and others approaching. The blue-haired swordsman stood up from the pontoon along the coast, and a bright flash of light also lit up at the same time: "Oh! (Boss!)"
"Qingchao, Sharksha, you look quite energetic."
Ian walked directly into the sea, and a huge steel-armored shark rushed
It galloped over and bumped into Ian. It was exactly the same as Elan's movement before, but the force was a little stronger. Ian almost didn't use the power of the Originium Core to resist the impact of the Shark.
".You grow up quite quickly."
After taking a breath, Ian carefully observed Shark's current condition and found that he was simply too healthy - the matte silver shell, the smooth body lines, the regular electrical crystals protruding on the back, and the increasingly perfect body.
Soul structure. It can be said that Shark Shark is the healthiest and happiest monster he has seen in so many years!
This kind of health can definitely not be explained by natural growth! Even if Ian uses precognitive vision to guide Shark to grow, it is nothing more than that, but he has not seen Shark for almost a full year. What on earth did the other party do?
How can he develop so well?
"Oh? Oh!"
I asked as soon as I thought of it, and after Shasha learned about Ian’s doubts,
Then he used his body to twist and connect with some souls to tell the young man some information.
"You said that there was an elf who came over to see you and carefully guided you on what you should eat and what you shouldn't eat. He also told you how to swim to exercise every corner of your body."
Ian felt a little familiar as he listened: "Isn't this Master Oak? He really came to Nanling to see you?"
Master Oak is the leader of the elven candle-bearers who are chasing Anfa. He is also a friend of Marquis Barton, and he is also a shark lover - he is obviously a sublimate of the wood attribute, but his mind-light body is a shark.
He is a very special third-level powerhouse.
Master Oak said he was chasing Anfa. In fact, he should be an elder sent by the Jin Deng family to protect Anfa. He should have noticed that Ian had contact with Anfa and that he was a person favored by Marquis Barton, so he
Ian also paid close attention to it. After realizing that Ian had raised a quite healthy shark, he became interested and went to the Great Maze of the South China Sea, specially coming to give guidance on the growth of the shark.
"Next time I go to Canaan Moore, if I have a chance to meet Master Oak, I really have to thank him."
Ian carefully observed Shark Shark again and found that Master Oak should really teach him everything he could. He couldn't help but sigh: "The world is so big and full of wonders. Shark Shark, you can be regarded as the protagonist. If you eat fish and crash into boats in the South China Sea, there will be people
It’s great luck to send you a secret book from the sky!”
"oh!"
Shark didn't understand what the protagonist template was. It just saw Ian, so it happily took a spin in the sea.
However, in addition, Ian also noticed that the state of Shark Shark in the silver chip also had the same 'crystalline biological transformation' tendency as Elan. It was the result of the same chip being affected by advanced crystalline organisms.
Now things got interesting, and Ian began to think that this might be the influence of the crystallized lake?
But it doesn't matter, they will go there soon to see what is going on.
With Shark Shark's current size and strength, plus Ian's protection, it won't take long for it to lead everyone to the Great Maze of the South China Sea.
The dark silver giant shark flew at an electric speed through the increasingly vibrant offshore waters of the South China Sea, then reached the depths of the far sea and swam toward a secret passage on the seabed.
It used to be the passage used by the crystal dragon to enter and exit the maze, and it was also a shortcut to the crystal lake. Now it is the entrance for the sharks to return home. Ian and others avoid the sight of others and enter the secret passage inside the maze.
"This is my first time here."
Leaning on the back of the shark, Elder Puder stroked his beard curiously and looked around at the wonderful scenery around the deep sea - due to the cause of the big storm, the heat dissipation of the labyrinth energy system was abnormal, and most of the earth's core on the surrounding seafloor showed strange melting and solidification.
It looks like an alien planet, with regular octagonal prisms standing on the smooth seabed.
After entering the channel, the closer you get to the inside of the crystal lake, the more obvious this regular crystallization phenomenon becomes.
The rich natural source material and spiritual energy field made the elder frown even more, and he was slightly shocked: "No wonder the natural source material here is almost substantial.
The labyrinth will breed existences that are far beyond normal monsters like the Lord of the Labyrinth. In such an environment, even the most ordinary tidal fish school can breed a fish king that is almost a dragon, right?"
"Yes. Moreover, the source material in the crystal lake is very pure. Elder, if you have time in the future, you can bring Elan here to rest and exercise."
The reason why Ian did not recommend this place to Elder Puder and Ellan before was mainly because Elder Puder was not so free at that time. The Redwood Aboriginals were defeated. As Viscount Grant's deputy, he still had a lot of work to do, not to mention
What is needed to nourish the body is not a high-quality environment, but a stable ordinary environment.
Elan had not received formal training at that time, and entering a high-quality environment rashly might cause physical dysfunction.
Just like the upper city area of the Imperial Capital, ordinary people may die even if they get close to it. Although Crystal Lake is not that dangerous, it can easily turn good things into bad things.
But Elan can now enter the 'tranquil,' level of meditation, so the crystal lake is only good for him.
"I understand."
Elder Pude also knew this, and he nodded solemnly.
"When will our Xiahui leader have such a good environment?"
Qingchao also lamented that for a second energy level like him, the environment of the crystal lake is also very superior. It can not only improve the body's adaptability to the source material, but also accelerate the growth of the soul, which has all the benefits and no harm.
, What a pity is that unlike Elan, he will live in Harrison Port for a long time in the future and can come here often to practice.
"It's not like there's nothing."
Ian thought about it and found that there was indeed a similar area in Xiahui Ling: the bottom of Xiahui Lake was a similar high-quality environment.
But the bottom of the lake is too narrow, and it is not a cave area like the crystal lake. It needs to dive to a depth of a thousand meters, which is impossible for ordinary people to do, and can only be used by sublimators.
When the Earth Vein Furnace is developed, perhaps we can imitate the principle of the 'Ghost Crystal Engine' to create an artificial high-quality area.
While everyone was sighing, Shark arrived at Crystal Lake.
Inside the crystal lake, everything is the same as when Ian left last time, and Shark took good care of the place.
Shark sent everyone to the shore, while Ian went directly to the crystal island in the center of the lake.
He wanted to see what happened to the crystallized dragon egg that was suspected to be the source of 'crystallization' in Elan and Shark.
The crystal dragon egg is located in the center of the crystal island. It was originally only the size of a human head, but after being continuously catalyzed and nurtured by the spiritual energy field around the crystal lake, it is now half the size of a human.
The entire egg looks like a huge diamond composed of countless regular crystals. Thousands of facets are crystal clear, absorbing all the brilliance around it, and releasing warm and pure light to the outside.
There were already cracks in its shell. Just as Shark Shark said, it had hatched, but something went wrong. The little crystal dragon did not leave the egg, but remained in this state of 'about to emerge but not yet emerge'.
But its vitality has not declined, but has become more and more vigorous as time goes by.
Silver-blue eyes flashed.
[Ether Crystal Dragon Egg]
[First energy level·Special species·Cornerstone·Edible]
[Beyond the designer’s expectations, it was a perfect transformation, one of the three eggs catalyzed by the etheric crystal dragon that reached its complete form with its last life]
[As the only dragon egg without defects, it should have hatched normally to produce the first naturally conceived etheric crystal dragon. However, due to being contaminated by the insect nest, it had undergone special changes. It had already produced a soul before it was born, and was connected with it.
The link between his brothers and sisters, who should have died young, has undergone indescribable changes]
[The egg has hatched, but it is still the last step before the final birth]
[Contains source quality: 2853.1391 base unit]
【.】
"Huh?"
Ian was a little surprised.
He had known about the abnormality of the crystal dragon egg for a long time, and the contamination of the insect nest, or the transformation, had indeed occurred for a long time - as he had fought so many times with the crystal dragon
An old rival for many years, Ian would not believe it if the Insect Hive had no method to deal with the Crystal Dragon.
The insect nest's countermeasures against the crystal dragon can basically be called 'If I can't beat you, I can't beat your cub?' - The insect swarm's contamination of the dragon eggs is quite direct and effective, even if the ether crystal dragon ends up using his own life
The power was purified, but the anomaly was still left.
The two dragon eggs taken away by Master Gesai were the two with the most serious abnormalities.
He saw this, so he specifically used these two dragon eggs as mission targets and left the intact one to Ian.
But now it seems that the connection between the crystallized dragon eggs seems to be far beyond Ian's imagination. This seemingly intact one still has some "remnants".
Of course, it may not be a future trouble... In a sense, the introduction of superior external forces is a kind of 'evolution' for crystal dragons, a fickle group with extremely high adaptability.
"interesting."
Ian thought for a moment of the three-headed crystal dragon that emerged from the sea on the way to the swarm, and he couldn't help but narrowed his eyes: "Could it be that the three-headed crystal dragon was not a transformation of mine in bad taste, but
Is it necessary?"
"Three crystal dragon eggs, due to the influence of the insect swarm, have actually been linked into one. They are not three separate entities, so they must be hatched together?"
"The reason why the one in my hand has not fully hatched is because of the connection between the three dragon eggs that transcends time and space, which prevents it from fully maturing before the other two dragon eggs hatch?"
This is just a guess and Ian doesn't think this guess is quite right.
This does not explain the impact that Shark and Elan were affected.
The relationship between the three dragon eggs should be simpler than he imagined.
There was no point in thinking about it. Ian walked forward directly, stretched out his hand, and touched the dragon egg.
Then, he felt a feeling that was almost like cheering.
A feeling of invitation.
and a sense of ‘expectation’ waiting for guidance.
It is like an ignorant cub, a machine that has just been born but has no program. It does not know how to eat or how to breathe. Therefore, even if it has been born, it can only stay in the eggshell and wait for the arrival of its "teacher"
.
Tell it how it should ‘exist’.
How to become ‘life’.
Ian is its ‘teacher.
Its [parents].
"How should I teach you?"
Ian asked.
Then, he got a response.
——Of course, it is a personal demonstration.
——In another body.
At this moment, Ian felt that his spirit had received an invitation. This invitation was similar to the feeling that he had used the authority of the labyrinth to descend on Shark, the agent of the Lord of the Labyrinth. His soul suddenly appeared.
A perspective.
"Another body. Interesting."
With a guess in his mind, Ian sensed it and didn't notice the danger - he was immediately interested: "Okay, let's try it."
So he slipped his consciousness into that perspective.
