"It may not be possible yet. I don't know whether the current empire has the qualifications and value you think."
Putting the letter back in his pocket, Cassia stood there and meditated for a while. The surroundings were quiet. After reading the letter, the eyes of the dragons had disappeared. Her body was so relaxed that fatigue rushed up. She shook her head and got stuck.
Xia sat down on the spot, took the holy sword and looked at it carefully again, but still found nothing magical about it, except that the weight became more and more clear in his heart.
Grote seemed to be still very young at that time. At least based on the information he initially consulted, when he came to the cemetery and left the box and the second-generation holy sword, the empire was still in the initial stage of change. The four forces were also taking shape.
During the process, when a group of powerful people in the empire took action against him and his family, they were still at a distance.
Already aware of it, Grote seemed to have underestimated the group of powerful people in the empire. The second-generation holy sword and the box had always remained the same. In the end, he did not have the chance to come here to use the back-up force he had left, so he
Turned into a pile of dry bones in the lies of war.
Cassia took out the necklace, and the two hollow animal bones collided and made a crisp sound. When the shaking stopped, the amber filled in the animal bones was very fragile and cracks had appeared.
Holding it in the palm of your hand, you touched it gently with your hand. The cracks on the small piece of amber suddenly spread out and covered it. The small piece of amber fell off at this time, as if a chain reaction had occurred, and it was covered with cracks.
It's more like a pile of quicksand that has been bonded together and has reached a balance inside. When the balance is destroyed, they naturally become their original appearance.
This time I didn’t pick up the red crystal directly with my hands. The pile of gravel-like amber particles finally couldn’t resist the erosion of time, and completely turned into powder in a few breaths. Cassia gently blew them away and took the
The necklace was taken away, leaving only the red crystal lying alone in the palm of my hand.
Some are like lead shot, very dense. It is an irregular polyhedron, and Cassia's face is reflected on each red mirror of different sizes.
I have always thought about the scene in the stone painting where the man swallowed the crystal and turned into a real dragon form, but Grote was the experimenter, and the crystal had long since lost its original power, and its remaining effect was just
It's just used as a moderator for surgery.
So there was no need to worry anymore. Cassia looked around and was stunned for a few seconds. Then she carefully held the crystal, the second-generation holy sword and the silver-gray box in one hand and returned to the hall. She walked to the rising fire and sat down.
Down.
"Things here should be over." Muttering to himself, Cassia opened his mouth and swallowed the red crystal. At the same time, he opened his cross pupils and turned on the rejection reaction. Then he closed his eyes, and he closed
The extra signal-receiving senses of the body are used to carefully feel the whole process of the body absorbing this crystal. If there is any damage to the body in the future, this feeling can also be regarded as a specific disease for the senior professors to judge.
.
It doesn't have any specific taste, it has a refreshing taste, a bit like mint leaves used for seasoning.
The weight of the crystal quickly brought it to Cassia's stomach pouch. Under concentrated perception, the acid in the stomach pouch, which was far larger than that of ordinary humans, had no effect on it. It was just like an ordinary person swallowing a piece of alloy of the same size.
It can remain in the body permanently and cannot be digested.
At this time, the devouring method was used. Since it was related to dragons, Cassia thought it would have some effect.
The situation was roughly as he thought. Under the devouring method, the crystals began to melt slowly. The cooling feeling became more intense, and the entire stomach became comfortable and thorough. This feeling soon spread to the whole body until
Inside Cassia's brain.
I have never felt so awake as I am now. Many memories that were about to be forgotten emerged from the depths of my head. Some knowledge that I didn’t quite understand and the vague aspects of surgical development became clear at this moment. It was like
Write words one by one with a pure black pen on the white paper, and every touch becomes vivid.
"Is this the role of crystals? The body has become a little lighter and not as heavy as before. It may also be more flexible and the reaction force will be much enhanced." Cassia thought alone. It has indeed had an effect on the body, and now the rejection reaction is complete
When this cool feeling spreads to the whole body, the specific rejection has also been greatly alleviated. The implanted dragon tissue is more stable, and the speed of assimilation and fusion has been completed in this short period of time.
stage.
When Cassia was immersed in this feeling, the coolness quietly faded from her body. I don’t know how long it had passed, it might have been a few days, or it might have been less than a few minutes. The red crystal
It had completely disappeared from the stomach bag. When Cassia noticed, the coolness that filled the whole body also disappeared, and was replaced by another kind of slight burning that made the blood in the body boil. Even the air became a little burnt, with gunpowder smoke.
The flavor is filled inside.
"Perhaps it's the body's natural reaction to absorbing crystals." Cassia thought, opened her eyes and stood up.
He froze in place for an instant, and heart palpitations with nowhere to vent rushed into his head. Cassia felt a sense of dizziness at a loss, and then her body bent again when she stood up. With her head lowered, she saw her feet, wearing a pair of brand new shoes.
The soft-soled rubber shoes are a bit miserable in white. Under the shoes, there is a dry and cracked ground with scorched earth, and there are glass-like particles on it that have been melted and solidified by high-temperature flames.
Cassia felt a sense of disbelief in his heart, which then turned into a trace of panic. He spread out his hands, which were covered with rough wrinkles and calluses, like extremely worn instruments that were about to be scrapped. He still remembered these hands, taking a ride from the small town.
This appearance did not change for a long time after they were relined. It was not until they underwent surgery and stabilized the condition of the first stage that they gradually became softer.
"What's going on?" Cassia raised her head and looked at the scorched earth in front of her after the war. The diffuse smoke covered the distance, and the undispersed black smoke floated in the light red sky. "What happened? I
Are you in a dream again?"
He quickly looked at his clothes, and it was indeed the one he wore when he entered the biology building for surgery. The originally clear memory began to become blurry at this time, and Cassia tried hard to recall her first time.
The only time I entered my dreamland was the scene. But the more I wanted to explore them, the farther and farther away those memories became from me, until finally, the memory turned into a hazy smoke that could never be seen clearly.
What exactly exists inside them, I can only remember a very vague general appearance.
"The function of that red crystal."
Cassia stood there thinking, this was the only reason. In addition, he could not imagine that he had come into contact with any other special things before entering the dreamland.
"The fallen battleship, as well as the broken analysis machine and code card!" Cassia finally caught some fragments at this time, "And,,,, Sukarius!"
Feeling excited for no reason, Cassia immediately took steps based on her vague feeling. A feeling of heaviness immediately hit her, and her legs became less flexible, returning to the way they were when they came out of the small town.
"It should just be the effect of dreams, but at that time I should still rely on these legs to walk to the front of the battleship." There was some comfort in the words.
It seemed that he was back to the starting point. Cassia didn't know how far he had gone. There was no difference between day and night here. The sky was always the same color. Only the floating black smoke in ribbons reminded him that he was indeed in such a sky.
Moving down.
The black ashes under his feet turned the shoes into another pure color. When Cassia woke up from her dazed state, it started to rain lightly in the sky. Her body became more tired, and she could no longer move her legs. The next moment she could no longer move her legs.
Unable to hold himself up, he fell to the ground, covered in black mud.
Something felt wrong. Cassia remembered what should have happened at this time, that the shadow of the huge battleship would cover him. But when he raised his head, he could only see the burning sky and the skyline that the black earth could not touch.
Struggling to stand up, Cassia looked around and could no longer take a step. He felt confused and panicked, as if he had forgotten many important things, and he didn't know where to put his feet in the next step.
.
The drizzle continued to fall, gathering water droplets from his hair and hitting Cassia's face. The coldness of the water droplets reminded him of something, and his hands began to tremble at this moment.
Not wanting to believe it, Cassia froze in place for a long time, and finally raised her hand and touched her neck.
The rough feeling made his fingers numb, and there was indeed a new scar there. A scar that had been opened by a refugee with a dagger on the rearrangement. (To be continued)
