Chapter 59: The Dragon Boy from the Old Era (Part 1)
Looking at the gems that were still shining brightly at the top of the gate, exuding a brilliance that required no energy but lasted for thousands of years, Vasily and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief. They took off their protective suits one after another and threw them on the long stone table aside.
Then, the highest authority in the federation and the only chief executive took off the silver-white necklace from his neck and threw it to Secretary Kuka who was standing behind him.
"Go and open it." Vasi's voice was unusually thick, containing overriding majesty and domineering. Under the command in an unmistakable tone, Kuka took the necklace, took off the relatively cheap silver chain next to it, and put it in
In pocket.
Then he opened the protective cover engraved with miniature pictures of the former chief executive of the Federation, Viking Vladimir, known as the "Pioneer", and the great emperor of the old empire, Yin Fan XXII, and gently picked up the one inside.
The red crystal, which is as close to reality as a diamond, is placed in a machine like an electric drill in the hand.
A slight "crack" sound flashed, and Vasily nodded with satisfaction. With a wave of his hand, Kuka quickly stepped forward, inserted it into the beak of the double-headed eagle carved on the door, and pressed the switch.
Buzz————
The harsh sound of high-speed operation of the machine made everyone present feel temporarily uncomfortable. After a few seconds, the chaotic light engulfed the entire electric drill-like machine, causing the lines on the door to begin to glow with red and blue intertwined light.
They shuttled, collided and intertwined like fast-moving snakes until they all converged on the central dragon with bat-like wings, a body similar to a lizard, and a typical giant dragon from the Western Continent culture that raised its head high and exposed its sharp fangs.
Among the totems.
boom------
A few seconds later, the door was slowly opened, and countless smoke and dust stirred up, forming an almost foggy area.
After the smoke and dust dispersed, a few people walked into the door, which was extremely spacious and bright, full of technology, and was used as an experimental field.
This is the secret laboratory set up by the Federal Council under the Sener Prison. It is called the "Special Laboratory" and is a top-level secret of the Council. It is used in any internal and external documents of the Federation, including most important meetings.
Not a single word has been revealed, except for the occasional "rumors" about Mohu.
Therefore, when the so-called "half-dragon" who has been sleeping for thousands of years wakes up, the rumors from the outside world, including the information obtained by most people in the "Order Society", are mostly about the "dragon-shaped monster" imprisoned in Sener Prison, and the "dragon-shaped monster" related to the old empire.
The "Dragon Clan" has awakened, but there is a "half-dragon" boy with dragon ancestry hidden in the "Federal Special Laboratory".
The "special laboratory" built secretly by the Federal Council is roughly the size of two or three factory buildings, and the floor is paved with expensive white tiles that have the ability to "demonstrate".
The top and walls are covered with electric lights. The power comes from several "alien mindless people" and monsters imprisoned inside Sener Prison. By enslaving them, it solves the power problem of Federal Capital 15 and makes the entire experiment possible.
The room is brightly lit.
The surrounding walls are clad in metal mixed with "Stern" materials and painted in a pleasing, religious white paint.
The overall laboratory layout is oval, and a circle of iron hollow stairs is built along the edge of the wall for only two people to pass. Standing on it, you can operate large experimental instruments or observe the entire experiment.
Near the gate is an open space used for experiments. Further in the depths of the laboratory are several large instruments and equipment, as well as a small pile of bottles and jars filled with chemical dyes.
In addition, Vasily and others noticed that today, there was a large cultivation cabin with a dim green light in the middle of the "Special Laboratory". The liquid inside had already become turbid. It's impossible to tell with the naked eye what kind of terrifying monster is bound inside.
After walking a few steps forward, Vasily suddenly stopped, turned his back to everyone, and asked his secretary Kuka:
"Do you know who the door is imitated from?"
"He is from the Dragon Clan, Master Vasily." Kuka replied immediately, without any hesitation.
"Then do you know what this door means to the Dragon Clan?" Vasily continued to ask.
After a few seconds of silence, Kuka answered from memory:
"According to legend, it was a specific jump channel for the leaders of the Dragon Clan in the First Era. At that time, it was said that the Dragon Clan was blessed by the Creator and a group of gods. They had defeated the ancient gods who briefly controlled the human world in the more distant past. , drove them back to the deep sea."
"Yes, history is not read in vain." Vasily nodded and praised:
"Although we have lost contact with that great and mysterious country in the East for nearly a hundred years, the great wisdom of the Khitanris people has always influenced us Crusted people." Using history as a mirror, we can know everything from ancient times to the present. Logic.' This is the direction we should follow.
"What else do you remember about the history of this door?" Vasily continued to ask.
His assistant and secretary Kuka is an old subordinate who accompanied him when he was the commander of the Strategic Regiment and the commander-in-chief of the "Far Northeast Army".
Most human beings after the New Yuan Dynasty are unwilling to ask each other's age. After all, the appearance of the supernatural and the lost can hardly truly reflect the time they have existed in the world, but their experience does.
This boy who looks sixteen or seventeen years old may have survived in this dirty and depressing world for decades, or maybe a hundred years, but in fact, when Vasily first met him, it was in the frozen Northern Mamowu. By the Si River.
Yes, Kuka has the blood of the Lost flowing in his body, but he considers himself human and is loyal to the Federation.
More than twenty years ago, the Federation launched a "Spear of Mars" counterattack in response to the dilemma that the province where the capital city was located was about to be surrounded by "unintentional people." The 30,000 soldiers and 200 tanks of the "Far Northeast Army" broke through 15 large and small strongholds controlled by the "Wuxinmen" and the Lost in one fell swoop, repelled the enemies surrounding Karloff City, and counterattacked to recapture Volga City. , opening up the passage to Koenig Province and Yuzhno-Karlov District.
On the day the war ended, while heading to the east of the city to clean up the battlefield, Vasily discovered the young Kuka, who was shivering and naked in the cold.
Originally, according to the "Federal Lost Persons Regulations," Kuka should be regarded as a prisoner of war and sent to work in factories within the federal territory. However, because his face, especially his eyes, turned blue when facing the sun and turned green when in a dark state,
The eyes are very similar to his wife Yin Lianna, who has passed away many years ago.
At that moment, he hugged Kuka, knelt on his knees and made the sign of the cross on his chest. After confessing to his true master, he regarded him as the son given to him by God and raised him as a normal human boy.
Over the years, Kuka has been very satisfied with his loyalty, wisdom, ability, emotional intelligence and attitude towards "unintentional people". In addition, the blood of the Lost flowing in his body has given him the ability to use extraordinary power. In recent years,
, Vasily more or less trained him as his successor.
Returning from the brief memories to reality, Vasily heard a satisfactory answer from Kuka's voice:
"The 'Karloff's Gate' connects the distant dragon realm and the real continent. At the end of the First Era, the founder of the old empire, the great His Majesty Innoros, discovered this and used the Karloff's Gate in reverse.
He led other human warriors to invade the "Karlof Black Stone Realm" and killed the last two dragon leaders, one black and one red, and later assisted humans in exiling the remaining dragons.
"Later, the palace secrets left by Charles XII mentioned that the general Laite Hain who defected from the Ewente Empire was the one who brought this awakened 'half-dragon' to Croton.
A guy from Rust once said: 'After the Spiritual Emperor of the Fire Empire started the Dragon Festival, the dragon ruins in various places quickly collapsed. Those dragons that lost most of their power turned into half-dragons and mingled among the alien beasts and humans.
'
"'He accidentally entered the realm of a dragon during an adventure on Lake Ruobel, opened the long-lost Karloff Gate, and rescued the dragon in a dreamland of night and day.' He
It has been described that "Karloff's Gate is like the product of the connection between the mainland and the underworld. It is the pinnacle of mechanical craftsmanship left by the dragon civilization. Under the blessing of the dark scarlet spell, the person who opens the door will be cursed.
In eternal pain, immortal and unable to escape.'
"'Karlof's Gate' is an eternal curse, but after its destruction, the Dragon Clan asked the Creator and added new terms to the 'Principle'. 'As long as the steam boils, the magic will dissipate.' Therefore, Master Vasily
, what are you going to do with this...'half-dragon'?"
"Handle? I don't think I can handle him." Vasily held his chin and thought:
"Steam boils and magic dissipates. This is the only direction of the Crusted Federation. It is also one of the reasons why I have always insisted on developing the mechanical industry and new era technology. The future era is destined to abandon magic, and old things should be put aside
In history books, sent to museums rather than revived again.
"Sociologists in the early New Yuan Dynasty mentioned a point of view. If mankind survives the catastrophe of the wasteland caused by the 'Heartless Man' virus, then there is hope to establish a world where no one rules, no one is ruled, and all races peacefully coexist.
There is no difference in society. I think, as long as he can consider himself a human being, I will treat him as a superpower and use the power of dragon to find the location of the remaining "Universal Energy Evolution Platform".
"In the past few years, I have been hearing that organizations that oppose the Federation are trying to find 'Pramini' and use the power of the so-called gods to destroy the Federation to achieve their ulterior motives.
"By the way, I heard that the power of dragons is closely related to flames. Last week's report also mentioned that traces of dragons appeared near the wind wall more than once. This 'half-dragon' must be very interested in the same kind of people.
The breath is very sensitive, right..."
Vasily said, turned around, looked at the silver-haired young man in a cloak standing at the end of the crowd, and said:
"The No. 3 leader of the 'Order Society', the successor of 'Yin Min', 'Fu Bing' is known as the 'Silver-haired God of Death'."
