Elder Ampoule looked bitter, "You must have heard what that boy from Severn said. In recent years, they are the only ones in our tribe who have set foot here because of the tsunami."
"Um."
Nuo Xia nodded slightly.
"That was more than half a year ago. At that time, the God of the Sky and Forest was still the same as when he first came to this island. He was kind and gentle, and often helped everyone. People in the tribe respected him..."
Elder Ampoule filled Nuo Xia's hands with the tribe's home-brewed wine and sighed:
"But I don't know why. Starting from a few months ago, the Lord God became more and more irritable after returning from a long trip. There were often lightning and thunder on the island in the middle of the night, making us restless all night."
"This has been getting worse over time, and a few weeks ago..."
The old man glanced at the women around him, lowered his voice a little, and said sadly:
"The blue flying dragon even took action several times at night and kidnapped several little boys in the village. There has been no news of them and they have not been seen back. Everyone in the village is guessing that they were eaten by it.
…”
The words were interrupted, and the old man lowered his eyelids, unable to bear to say the word.
Is there such a thing?
Nuo Xia frowned and said nothing. He picked up the vessel containing the food and gently rubbed the smeared marks on it.
——This seems to have been smoothed bit by bit with your fingers.
It is not difficult to imagine how desperate and resentful these indigenous parents felt when they saw the divine patterns carved by themselves after learning that their children had been snatched away by a flying dragon that had always been revered as a god...
"Elder, where is that flying dragon's lair?"
Nuo Xia suddenly put down the utensils and turned to look at Elder Ampoule, "Since it accepted your offerings before and settled on this island, you should also know the location of its nest, right?"
"The original nest is not far from the village. Every festival, we would go to the entrance of the nest and place food as offerings to show our respect to the gods."
The white-haired old man shook his head and said: "But since the first child was taken away in the middle of the night a few weeks ago, I organized a team to go in and check again. The place has been emptied out, and there is nothing left."
"But it should still be on the island, right?" Nuo Xia raised his head and looked at the vast mountains deep in the virgin forest.
"That's true, there were thunders for several hours last night..." The old man suddenly reacted, his eyes widened suddenly, and he said tremblingly, "My benefactor, don't you mean..."
"Well, I'm going to go into the mountains."
Nuo Xia raised his glass and drank it down. He stood up and looked at the rising sun, and said leisurely, "Don't worry, you guys are waiting here for my good news. I'll try my best to get back before dark."
"No! It's too dangerous for you to go alone, benefactor! Please be sure..."
The old man stood up excitedly and wanted to dissuade him, but before he could finish his words, Nuo Xia suddenly stepped on the ground, soared into the sky, took moon steps, and shot out towards the deep mountains.
Before he could react, his back had turned into an invisible black dot at the far end of his sight.
"...Ji Ya Li Gu!"
"Asado!"
The natives in the entire clearing were in an uproar of horror, while Elder Ampoule opened his mouth and stared blankly at Nuo Xia's back. After the shock faded from his eyes, he closed his eyes and sighed, put his hands together on his chest, and prayed silently...
…………
Whoosh!
In the mountain forest, along with the sound of breaking wind, black shadows moved rapidly.
Half an hour later, Nuo Xia's figure appeared on the top of a mountain peak, looking around quietly, constantly searching for information and colors in the lingering clouds and mist.
Phew!
The cry of eagles echoed in the sky, and a figure like white lightning swept from a distance, hovering and landing on the moss-covered rocks in front of Nuo Xia.
"You didn't find it there either?"
Xiao Luo, who transformed into the form of a white nighthawk, folded his wings and shook his head slightly.
"trouble."
Nuo Xia frowned. This mountain range was wider than he expected, and the terrain was complex. In addition, the fog in the mountains was thick, and the line of sight was blocked.
Even with the help of Xiao Luo, it would take at least half a day to search for traces of the dragon.
And if it were that indigenous tribe, even if all the old women and children were sent out together, they might not be able to complete the exploration in a week.
Nuo Xia glanced at the sword blade at his waist and hesitated slightly. With his current strength, he slashed with all his strength. The surging sword energy could easily split a large mountain in two.
If you make a big noise and make the dragon feel threatened, you should be able to force this big guy out, right?
"Blue flying dragon..."
Nuo Xia murmured and repeated, holding her chin and falling into deep thought again.
perhaps……
Can we find another way?
He calmly opened the system panel and silently glanced at the backpack column.
[Name: Blue Eyes White Dragon Summoning Card]
[Type: Consumables]
[Description: After use, an adult blue-eyed white dragon is virtually projected, which can act arbitrarily under the control of the player and cannot cause any damage or impact on the real world. The total number of usable times is (3/3)]
…
This was a prop I bought from the mall more than two years ago when I was still a new recruit.
At that time, Nuo Xia really wanted to use it to test the effect, but unfortunately, it has never been put to use.
I never thought it would be used in such a place today...
Nuo Xia silently apologized to the president in her heart, and then with a thought, she chose to use it, and a faint blue light suddenly flashed in the backpack column.
Go, Blueiswhite Doragon!
Buzz!
The blue-eyed white dragon, which exuded light blue light all over, suddenly raised its head and roared, and flew out from the valley at its feet. It was like an elf swimming among the clouds and mist. It was nearly a hundred meters long and possessed the coercion of the dragon clan.
Mystery, and female beauty.
Beautiful indeed.
No wonder the president regards her as his wife.
Nuo Xia looked at the figure of the blue-eyed white dragon with admiration, and then subconsciously glanced at his right arm, feeling a little regretful, well... it's a pity that there is no duel plate.
He controlled the blue-eyed white dragon to fly around, letting the dragon's roar echo throughout the mountain range. Within a few minutes, another loud and suspicious dragon's roar suddenly sounded deep in the southeastern valley.
Nuo Xia turned his head and looked away.
A giant blue dragon, about sixty or seventy meters long, fluttered its wings and flew into the sky. The image of this giant dragon was closer to Noxia's impression of the big lizard in Western mythology.
It hovered around the blue-eyed white dragon with admiring and awe-inspiring eyes. It seemed to want to get closer, but was a little hesitant. It looked like an otaku who wanted to strike up a conversation but was timid.
Nuo Xia let the blue-eyed white dragon deal with it at will, while he himself flashed and headed towards the valley where the blue dragon had just flown out.
Compared to the inescapable Thunder Fruit, confirming the life and death of those children was a higher priority in his mind at the moment.
Soon, Nuo Xia discovered a sunken hidden nest at the bottom of this mountain peak. It was surrounded by rugged rocks, lush forests, and dim light. Only in the morning, a thin beam of skylight fell at the entrance of the cave.
"It turns out to be hidden in such a nook and corner, no wonder Xiao Luo can't find it."
Nuo Xia murmured to himself and strode into the cave. He could faintly feel that there were breaths of other lives deep in the cave, and there were more than one.
This means that those children who were robbed are still alive!
"really."
Passing through the fork in the road, we reached the deepest part of the cave. There was a faint kerosene light inside. The arched stone platform against the wall was obviously the place where the giant dragon rested and slept. And around the stone platform, there were several crude wooden frames.
bed.
Under the quilt, the little boys slept soundly, snoring slightly from time to time. There were some small toys made of wood beside the bed.
Nuo Xia casually picked one up and looked at it. He felt that the rough craftsmanship did not look like human carving, but rather like it was pulled out by a giant dragon with its claws...
What on earth is this dragon doing...
Nuo Xia looked strange and hesitated for a moment. Instead of waking up the little boys, he continued to walk around the cave and watch.
Soon he made a new discovery: there were many murals painted on the south wall.
The lines were rough and the quality was appalling, even worse than the beaver cat he met in the Windless Zone.
But after reading them one by one, Nuo Xia was able to guess a lot of information.
"Is this a diary or a memoir?"
Nuo Xia gently brushed the mural with his hand, his eyes flashing slightly, "So that's what happened..."
roar!
Suddenly, the deafening roar of the dragon tore through the silence in the cave.
Nuo Xia took one last look at the mural, and when he came to the entrance of the cave, he saw a huge blue dragon falling from the sky, suddenly landing in the valley, glaring at him.
The top of Yunduan Mountain is empty, and there is no sign of the blue-eyed white dragon.
"Oh, it's time." Nuo Xia raised her eyebrows.
This is only ten minutes, right? You get what you pay for. The summoning card that cost 1,500 points can only do so much.
"So, Xiaolonglong."
He looked at the giant blue dragon in front of him, whose eyes were about to spit out fire, and chuckled, "Are you blaming the goddess for running away and blaming it on me?"
roar!
The giant blue dragon roared again angrily, looked over Nuo Xia's shoulder, and glanced warily into the depths of the cave. It opened its huge mouth and exposed its fangs. The threat in its eyes was self-evident.
Are you worried about hurting those children?
"Don't worry, I don't mean any harm. The children are still sleeping and haven't been woken up. But if you yell so loudly, it won't necessarily be..."
Nuo Xia suddenly raised his eyebrows. Looking at the electric arc leaping from the dragon's mouth, he sighed, "If I were you, I wouldn't be stupid enough to do anything to me..."
boom!
Before he finished speaking, a thick blue thunder suddenly erupted from the dragon's mouth, and struck Nuoxia head-on with an extremely terrifying momentum.
A few seconds later.
The giant blue dragon sat down on the ground aggrievedly, apologizing obediently. There was a big bulge on its head, which was steaming and crackling from time to time.
Nuo Xia retracted his fist as if nothing had happened, and the dark military luster quickly faded.
"If you still don't believe me when I say there's no malice, I have to convince you physically."
Nuo Xia shrugged, "But that female dragon was indeed created by me. It was just an illusion, just to trick you, the fat bastard, into coming out of the nest."
Sure enough, it's you, you bastard! The giant blue dragon's eyes widened, furious, and it suddenly spread its wings, and the dazzling blue electric light roared up again.
Two seconds later, it covered its head and sat back aggrievedly, with two more layers of bags on its head, piled high like candied haws.
"That's almost it. You should be more honest now, right?"
Nuo Xia clapped his hands, glanced at the blue dragon, and then took the lead to walk into the cave, "Then, come with me."
Who is the master, and who should lead the way?
The giant blue dragon cursed for a while, but still followed him obediently. He didn't dare to spread his wings anymore and could only move with his feet to keep pace. It looked quite funny.
"I've seen all the murals you painted. You, actually, come from an empty island called Ansaya, right?"
Nuo Xia was walking in front, and a long voice came into the ears of the blue dragon, "Although you are big, you are actually only about fifty years old. According to the algorithm of your tribe, you can only be said to be a person who has not yet reached adulthood.
Little baby dragon?"
I'm not a little kid, the blue dragon snorted dissatisfied.
"Don't deny it, otherwise you wouldn't be childish enough to take advantage of the night to take away the children from the tribe and come to this place to accompany you and serve as your playmates."
Nuo Xia passed by the mural and took a photo of the latest painting. On it, the blue dragon was playing a hide-and-seek game with the little boys, all of them smiling happily.
Discovered by this guy? The giant blue dragon looked horrified. He immediately leaned against the wall, raised his big butt, and tried to quietly rub off the murals behind it.
"Stop wiping, I've finished reading it."
Nuo Xia turned her head, stared at him closely, and her tone became serious:
"Although these children's lives are not in danger, and they are having more fun here,... have you ever thought about the feelings of their parents, the tribesmen who respected and trusted you in the past?"
"As a parent, when you wake up and suddenly your child is missing, what kind of despair does that feel like?"
"..." The giant blue dragon looked a little confused and muttered something in a low voice.
"You said you didn't mean it, it was just impulse?"
Nuo Xia sneered, "The first time can be said to be impulsive, but what about the next few times? You took away six or seven children. It is not so much impulsive as it is that you have been lonely in the days of living alone in the mountains.
Has your heart been twisted?"
Does this human understand what he is saying? The blue dragon's eyes widened, and question marks seemed to float slowly on its head.
I have the ability to listen to the sounds of all things. Of course I can understand it. Nuo Xia took a look at it and didn't bother to explain, "I will sort out the timeline of the mural. If there are any mistakes or omissions in it, you can point it out and see if there is anything wrong with my understanding."
."
"Probably more than half a year ago, without telling the elders of the tribe, you sneaked from Ansa Yakong Island to Qinghai to play. Out of curiosity, you ate a mysterious fruit, and then you happened to encounter a large-scale invasion of pirates.
A deserted island.”
"After you used your ability to make thunder to help your tribe repel the invaders, you were enshrined as a god and respected by others. You simply settled here happily."
"You've lost track of time during this stay. It wasn't until four months ago that you suddenly woke up and remembered that the Dragon Clan's festival was coming soon, so you hurriedly left and rushed back to Ansayakong Island."
"After returning to the empty island, you, who can control thunder, were regarded as an alien by the ethnic group close to the flames, and were driven out mercilessly. No matter how you begged, it was in vain, and you could only return to this desert island alone."
"From that time on, your temperament became more and more withdrawn, and you couldn't even bear the loneliness. You did the ridiculous thing of kidnapping your children in the middle of the night and letting them accompany you day and night."
Nuo Xia glanced at the children who were still sleeping soundly, then turned around and stared quietly at the dimmed eyes of the giant blue dragon, and spoke softly:
"It seems that there are no mistakes or omissions in what I summarized, right?"
