The footsteps of a group of people echoed in the spacious underground passage, raising layers of dust on the ancient ground.
After three thousand years, this underground passage that had been sealed by time and vicissitudes of life finally welcomed a long-lost visitor.
On both sides of the underground secret passage, there are engraved war sculptures unique to the Winged Human Race. Most of them are scenes of fierce fighting on the battlefield or a large number of soldiers arrayed in the clouds.
Compared with the elves, whose uncanny craftsmanship and meticulous carving techniques are known, the reliefs of the Winged Tribe are obviously much simpler, but they also carry an indescribable elegance and vividness, as if the Winged Tribe soldiers on the pictures will be transformed in the next second.
Get active in front of your eyes.
"I have to say that compared to the Elves, the cultural heritage of the Winged People is not far behind. This should be the military center of the Winged People, and it must be heavily guarded. If it were placed in the Silver Moon Era, it would not be able to be seen casually.
What a scene.”
Since entering this barrier area, Shirley, who has been following Lei Xiao, her red lips slightly opened in surprise have never been closed.
As a survivor of the blank era, although Shirley lost most of her memories inexplicably, she still has memories of some details.
For example, in that glorious era of all races, the elves, winged humans, dwarves, and humans all stood at the top of all races.
But now, these powerful races that had even given birth to many new gods have all fallen into such a state of complete destruction. How could Shirley not sigh with emotion?
As for Wu on the other side, his face was also full of wonder.
As a [God's Stone] born after the blank era, although it is difficult for Wu to understand Shirley's sadness, his heart is also full of confusion.
Wu just knows that as the [God's Stone], he has the important task of exploring the truth of this world, which is the secret of the blank era.
But who is his creator? How will he help the lord reveal the truth of this world? Wu knows nothing, at least Wu himself does not have any information about the blank era.
But Wu clearly understood that, just like Xiao Huan and Xiao Zhao who were both [Stones of God], all of them firmly believed that as long as they followed the pace of the lord, everything would clear away the clouds and see the blue sky.
As the footsteps of a group of people echoed in the underground passage, Lei Xiao quickly arrived at the end of the passage.
This is a small secret room that looks empty except for a shining light gray magic circle that is rotating. It is the special teleportation circle unique to the Winged Humans.
"I want to take a closer look at what exactly you are selling."
Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly, and with the lead of Shirley and Wu, he stepped straight into the teleportation array.
Accompanied by a familiar but completely different sense of lightness, when Lei Xiao's vision became clear again, he suddenly looked startled.
Shirley and Wu, who were teleported in first, also opened their eyes involuntarily, obviously shocked by the scene in front of them.
As for the tiger sticks and others who arrived later, they also took a deep breath slowly and tried their best to adjust their surprise. No matter how many times they saw the scene in front of them, it was still shocking.
I saw that the group of people was currently on a towering platform similar to the Point General Platform, and below the platform was an extremely wide space, with huge black all-metal dragons standing impressively!
These giant black metal dragons are much larger than normal dragons. Each one is at least seven or eight stories high. The dragon eyes are tightly closed, the metal wings are gathered, and they are arranged neatly in a standing posture.
At first glance, it looks like you are in front of a series of metal hills, which are difficult to shake.
It is no exaggeration to say that even though the group of people are currently standing on a higher point-taking platform and all these metal dragons are still closed, an indescribable sense of oppression still arises spontaneously, which makes people's hearts tremble.
"No wonder even Hongye and Knotweed are keeping silent. This scene is truly unimaginable."
Lei Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at the giant black scales exuding a frosted luster, and couldn't help blurting out.
You know, an ordinary dragon can easily destroy a city. Who knows what kind of power these ancient creations of the winged people can exert?
"Lord, these should be a very special kind of dragon-shaped all-metal alchemy puppets."
After a while, Hong Ye's willow eyebrows frowned slightly, and she spoke first: "Although I don't want to admit it, every detail on the bodies of these puppet dragons is perfectly drawn. If the color and luster are discarded, even the subordinates
It’s hard to tell the difference for a while.”
After a pause, Hong Ye added: "The ability of this winged human race to create such an amazing alchemical product was really surprising at that time."
"I didn't expect that even you would give such a high evaluation."
Lei Xiao's eyes scanned the thick metal scales, continued to observe, and finally landed on the condensed wings of the metal dragon.
To a certain extent, the relatively fragile wing membrane is undoubtedly one of the weaknesses of the dragon clan, but the wings of these giant metal dragons are also made of all metal, and it is difficult to imagine what they will look like when unfolded.
"Lord, this is indeed a giant dragon alchemy puppet."
Shirley's red lips opened slightly and she echoed: "The alchemy puppet can actually achieve such a huge scale. Even in the Silver Moon Era, this is a rare alchemical creation."
"Indeed."
Hearing the sound, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully.
Through communication with the ice demon Garth, the dwarf prince Vader and others, Lei Xiao had already learned about it.
There are many difficulties in refining the alchemy puppet, but two of them are the most significant. The first is the strength of the alchemy puppet, and the second is naturally the size of the alchemy puppet.
Needless to say, strength is the fundamental factor that determines everything, and body shape cannot be ignored either.
With the same strength, a larger size not only means more refining materials are needed, but also a stronger alchemy core.
A strong alchemy core means faster energy recovery and more energy storage space.
In other words, purely in terms of comprehensive capabilities, large alchemy puppets can often exert greater destructive power and are more difficult to defeat.
This corresponds exactly to the real Dragon Clan. The reason why the Dragon Clan is called the Overlord of the Sky and dominates the entire world is not because it is the only fifth-level flying monster.
Rather, it is because its huge and hard body possesses power and destructive power that is unmatched by ordinary monsters. It also possesses a huge energy vortex that ordinary fifth-level monsters cannot match, and its endurance in battle is unparalleled.
Because of this, in front of the human race who are also fifth-level strong men, the dragon race will have the upper hand and can easily exhaust all the opponent's power. And the larger body can also easily cause greater destructive power. This is worthy of the comparison.
It is called a nightmare existence in the human world.
From this, it is not difficult to see that, given the same strength, an alchemy puppet of the size of a giant dragon is obviously much stronger than the dwarf alchemy puppet commander, and can also play a greater role on the battlefield.
"Lord, as far as my subordinates know, even the races that can create fifth-level alchemy puppets are simply unable to refine dragon creations of such a huge size."
Shirley's clear voice of surprise rang in Lei Xiao's ears again: "The alchemy technology of this winged human race is simply incredible."
"That's right, the Winged People have been sworn enemies of the major dragon clans since ancient times. They often attack each other to compete for territory, trying to position themselves as the overlord of the sky."
Hong Ye's eyebrows furrowed even more tightly, and she continued: "Presumably the reason why the Winged Humans created the Dragon Clan's alchemy puppets is because they are preparing to treat others with their own methods."
After hearing Hong Ye's words, Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly.
If you think about it carefully, this is indeed the case. For example, the spell Whale Falling Thunderstorm that you master is a dragon-slaying spell specially developed by the Winged Human Race.
While thinking this, Lei Xiao regained his composure, nodded to his subordinates and said: "In short, if I can use these alchemy puppet dragons, this will definitely be a very good trump card."
After Lei Xiao finished speaking, everyone nodded in agreement.
Just like what the lord said, there are a total of 20 alchemy puppet dragons here.
If the lord can conquer them all, it will undoubtedly only take a matter of minutes to deal with an airship formation of the size of the Kingdom of Grim before!
In other words, as long as we control these giant metal dragons and the five aerial combat puppet legions, our aerial strength will be enough to easily rival the entire human world. Even if those violent red dragons come again, it will not be without a fight.
Power!
"The next step is to try to subdue and activate these big guys. I hope they can still move freely."
A hint of caution appeared on Lei Xiao's face, and he asked everyone: "Do you have any good ideas?"
Lei Xiao clearly understood that compared to the dwarf alchemy puppet army that was automatically activated before.
After repeated confirmation by Huzhang, Hongye and others, although these metal dragons did not activate automatically, they undoubtedly have an overwhelming advantage over our current combat power.
After all, according to Hong Ye's previous judgment, the strength of these alchemical dragons is comparable to that of real fifth-level dragons. Once we activate these behemoths without being sure, it will be extremely troublesome to subdue them.
"Lord, your subordinates are aware of your previous subjugation of the dwarf alchemy puppet army. According to the customs of each clan, the basic condition for subjugation is the clan's sacred object."
Shirley stroked her chest and saluted, and responded respectfully: "Only if we find the token of this Winged Human Race first, can we continue."
At this point, a look of embarrassment appeared on Shirley's fair face again, and she continued: "But holy objects are generally very difficult to find. I'm afraid it won't be an easy task."
"That's not a problem."
Lei Xiao smiled faintly, and the shining Fenglan Wings appeared on his palm.
After using Fenglan Wings to open the "Wandering Gate", Lei Xiao still carried it with him. Although it lost its function as the "Key of Truth", it was still a sacred object of the human race with this wing.
There is no doubt about it.
Looking at Shirley's surprised expression, Lei Xiao briefly described the process of finding Fenglan Wings.
"It turns out that the lord has already made up his mind."
With a look of reverence on her face, Shirley nodded to Lei Xiao and said, "Then, please ask the lord to try to input energy into the body of the alchemy puppet through the holy object, and it should be effective."
"Let me try."
After Lei Xiao said this, he walked off the general platform surrounded by his subordinates and walked towards the nearest puppet dragon.
However, when Lei Xiao followed Shirley's instructions and input his own energy into the body of the puppet dragon in front of him, it was as if nothing happened, and there was no reaction at all.
"Lord, you are trying to convert your own energy into the power of the gods."
The crisp sound of Shirley's murmuring soon rang in Lei Xiao's ears again.
"Understood."
Lei Xiao nodded slightly and continued to operate.
This time Lei Xiao could clearly feel that the input energy received a hint of feedback, but it soon disappeared.
"Lord, the puppet dragon's eyes opened just now and closed again soon!"
Shi Feng's white tail had completely exploded. He was obviously in an extremely nervous state and couldn't help but blurt out.
"I did get some feedback, but it was immediately gone."
Lei Xiao nodded slightly and frowned: "It seems that we are still missing something."
"The Lord is right, but judging from the feedback from the puppet dragon, Shirley's idea is still right."
Hong Ye nodded thoughtfully and thought: "According to the analysis of the situation just now, perhaps the energy input by the lord did not fully activate the alchemy core of the puppet dragon."
"Lord, there was no feedback when the normal energy was input for the first time, but there was a reaction when the power of the gods was input for the second time. This shows that the power of the gods is one of the necessary conditions for activating the alchemy core."
The knotweed gently rubbed his thickly bearded chin and blurted out: "Could it be that only the Winged Human Race's unique energy can fully activate it?"
"I also agree that in order to prevent the puppet dragon from falling into the hands of other races, this protective measure is indeed very reasonable."
Hong Ye pondered for a moment and then agreed: "In other words, only the unique energy fluctuations in the bloodline of the Winged People are the key to activating the alchemy core."
"Is it the unique energy of the Winged People?"
Lei Xiao curled his lips slightly and frowned: "But except for the image of Yaheng in Kelburg, we have never seen other winged humans that can move normally."
After Lei Xiao finished speaking, all the subordinates also frowned.
Since the blank era, the remaining winged humans have been even more low-key than the elves and dwarves, and are simply hard to see.
Furthermore, even if the Winged Human Tribe is found, it is impossible for them to use the power of God's Familiar like the Lord, and they still cannot activate it.
Just when everyone was confused, Shirley smiled, stroked her chest and saluted Lei Xiao: "Lord, please don't worry, I have a way for you to have the unique energy of the Winged Human Race!"
"oh?"
Lei Xiao's originally gloomy eyes lit up, and he quickly said: "Come and tell me." ()
