"Falling into a long sleep is the last hurdle for my blood-patterned black dragon clan before reaching adulthood." The receptionist explained to Li Zheng in a reluctant tone: "Generally speaking, before entering a deep sleep state, our clan will return to their ancestors.
You need to find a safe place to sleep to avoid accidents during your sleep. But I think the person next to you..."
She looked at Xiaoying carefully several times and said, feeling speechless: "This is the first time I have met a tribesman who can open his mouth to eat while sleeping..."
Li Zheng was stunned for a moment. He looked down at Sakura and found that there was a little soy milk left on Sakura's mouth during breakfast today. The Red Pollies didn't wipe it off for her. It had been completely dried by now, leaving a bit of grayish-white mottled powder.
.
"You mean the blood-striped black dragon clan won't eat when they are sleeping?"
"...To be precise, our clan will take in enough nutrients at one time before sleeping to last until the end of the sleep." The receptionist replied: "For safety reasons, our clan is most afraid of being disturbed during its sleep, so
……Well……"
"So what?" Li Zheng asked.
"So the person next to you has been unable to sleep peacefully, resulting in extremely slow progress." The receptionist replied: "Normally, it only takes about thirty days for our clan to go through the sleep period. The person next to you continues like this.
If so, it may not be possible to end the deep sleep even in three hundred days."
Three hundred days?
so long?
Li Zheng frowned: "But I heard from others that there is a way to end this so-called dormant state in advance in the Blood-striped Black Dragon Ancestral Land?"
After hearing this, the receptionist suddenly asked a digression: "Do you know Xiao?"
Li Zheng was slightly startled: "How do you know?"
"Of course I know." The receptionist shook his head: "Because the statement you just made was what I used to fool that silly boy. No one except him would say such a thing."
"Um..." Li Zheng pondered for a moment and asked: "So, if he has any means to find the ancestral land of the Blood-striped Black Dragon Clan, he must have gotten it from you, right?"
"That's right." The receptionist did not deny it: "That guy was kind to me before, and I promised to help him do a few things within my capabilities."
"No wonder!"
Li Zheng nodded. No wonder when Xiao offered to give him a pass to the Black Dragon Ancestral Land with Blood Patterns, he paid the price and refused to let go.
It turns out that for him, this kind of 'commodity' is also limited.
Xiao probably didn't expect that after Li Zheng refused the deal with him, he would meet the receptionist from the blood-patterned black dragon clan in front of him in the huge crowd of people on the second day after entering the outer city.
The most outrageous thing is that one of the five teleportation scrolls held by Li Zheng at the beginning leads directly to here.
It was just by chance that it was used by Zhan Zhouzhou.
If the two of them had exchanged words at that time...
Li Zheng could see her yesterday.
So life is impermanent and anything can happen.
If Xiao knew about this, he would probably be very angry.
"This..." Li Zheng showed a rare expression of embarrassment and touched his bald head: "I have a merciless request..."
"Do you want me to take her back to her ancestral homeland so that she can spend her sleep period in peace?" The receptionist revealed Li Zheng's thoughts.
"That's right." Li Zheng nodded and said, "She will inevitably run around here and there with me, making it difficult for her to rest peacefully, which will affect her sleep, so..."
"Actually, you just need to find a place to settle down, and then give her an absolutely quiet and undisturbed environment, and she will wake up naturally after thirty days." The receptionist said lightly: "There is no need to make a special trip to the ancestral land."
"Finding a place to settle down?" Li Zheng smiled bitterly: "I want to, but I still have important things to do now, so I can't settle down in one place."
As long as the hidden dangers in his mental power are not resolved, Li Zheng will not be able to feel at ease. He now feels insecure all the time, fearing that his mental power will burst at some point.
"It's not impossible to take her to the ancestral land." The receptionist pondered for a moment and said, "But I have a condition."
"Say it." Li Zheng said immediately: "As long as it can help Xiaoying survive the dormant period safely, I can consider any conditions."
"Yeah?"
The receptionist spoke slowly: "I want you to give her her freedom, are you willing?"
"Give her freedom? Do you mean to let Xiao Ying break away from my name?" Li Zheng cautiously did not agree immediately, but asked: "What happens after breaking away? Will you help her get a free person's place in the outer city?
?”
If the other party meant to change Sakura's status as a pet to hers, then Li Zheng would never agree.
"Of course." The receptionist said, "That's not a difficult thing for me. She will have her own independent inscription card and become a real resident of the outer city."
As a public official, it is indeed not difficult to use the back door to give others the identity of a resident of an outer city.
It can be said that the reason why the Blood-striped Black Dragon clan allowed her to enter the outer city is so that the Blood-striped Black Dragon clan members born in the future can have legal status in the outer city.
In order to obtain her current position, the Blood-striped Black Dragon Clan consumed a lot of rare resources that are rarely found in outer cities.
Li Zheng thought for nearly three minutes and finally made up his mind to trust the receptionist in front of him, who was of the same race as Sakura.
However, he also took advantage of the opportunity to put forward some more requests for help: "Since you can help get legal citizenship from the outer city, can you please get a few more by the way? I have several partners here who need..."
As he said that, he pushed Miriel forward, and also released Qrow and Yi Si.
Receptionist: "...You seem to have some misunderstanding. Even if I want to obtain the status of a legal outer city citizen, it will cost a lot of money. If this little black dragon next to you is not of the same race as me, I will never do it."
Maybe he could make the kind of promise he just made."
The implication is that either Li Zheng will bear the cost of using the back door, or he will take back his shameless request just now.
Li Zheng asked with a hint of hope: "How much does it cost to have an outer city status?"
"Ten thousand." The receptionist said, "Red crystal coins."
Ten thousand red crystal coins!
Converted into white crystal coins is...
Li Zheng made a silent calculation in his mind, raised his hand and put the confused Kuro and Yisi back into the capsule: "Excuse me."
In the end, Sakura, who had been with Li Zheng since the first day she entered the matrix, was separated from her pet status and was handed over to her own kind.
"Thirty days later, when her dormant period is over, I will personally bring her back." The receptionist led Xiaoying, who was tightly wrapped by the Red Poles, and said to Li Zheng: "You can come back to her at any time after that.
Whether she wants to continue to be with you or not depends on her own decision."
"Um."
Li Zheng glanced at Xiaoying a few more times.
Normally, I didn't feel the presence of Sakura by his side, but now the little guy suddenly wanted to leave. Of course, Li Zheng felt deeply reluctant to leave.
"After you two followed Xiaoying to the ancestral land, you should protect Xiaoying and at the same time, you can't disturb her like before. Do you understand..."
Li Zheng, who was worried, repeatedly warned the two red Pollys, fearing that these two fools would ruin Sakura's sleep period.
"Polly..."
I don't know if the two red Pollies understood it, but they stretched their heads and popped out from the left and right sides of Sakura's cheeks, shouting lively.
"You don't need to worry too much." The receptionist said: "My clan's ancestral land has strict rules to guard it. All sleeping clan members are not allowed to be disturbed. Generally speaking, she will not encounter any danger."
Although there have been some examples of naughty new black dragons unknowingly entering the resting places of certain black dragons and disturbing them, there has never been a real life-threatening danger.
"You don't understand..." Li Zheng's eyes were complicated. Is he worried about other black dragons?
What he is worried about is these two stupid Red Pollies!
Who knows if they will be like now after following them to the Blood-striped Black Dragon Ancestral Land, always clinging to Sakura and leading her around?
It's a pity that these two fools didn't listen to his orders and turned a deaf ear to his instructions to get them off Sakura.
Thinking of the relationship between Sakura and them, Li Zheng didn't want to be too tough. He could only let them go with Sakura and pray in his heart that they would not get into trouble.
After listening to Li Zheng's explanation, the receptionist said: "Don't worry, I will keep people watching and there won't be any trouble."
"Then... thank you so much." Li Zheng was very grateful.
"Don't be in a hurry to thank me. I'm helping you for nothing." The receptionist waved his hand and revealed a white-skinned arm from under the hood, but the nails on the fingertips were extremely slender, a full five or six centimeters.
Like a dragon's claw.
Li Zheng was stunned: "After your black dragon clan has passed the dormant period, will you undergo another transformation?"
Only then did he realize that the receptionist was much slimmer than Sakura, and it didn't look like there was a dragon hidden under the hood.
"There will indeed be a transformation." The receptionist seemed to know what Li Zheng wanted to ask, and said directly: "But what kind of abilities will be obtained after the transformation is not fixed. The reason why I become like this..."
As he spoke, the receptionist threw back his hood, revealing his true face.
What was hidden under the hood was a peerless face, which looked very similar to that of an Earthling. Only a pair of pale golden vertical pupils and two small dragon horns protruding from her silky hair proved her identity.
"The reason why I look like this after sleeping is because I was influenced by a friend when I was growing up. He said that this appearance is most in line with his aesthetics."
Li Zheng stared blankly at the peerless beauty in front of him, and suddenly his heart moved, and he asked: "Have you... ever given your genes to others?"
"It does happen." The receptionist put back his hood to hide his face: "But that was many years ago."
This is a bit outrageous!
Li Zheng complained vigorously in his heart. He never expected that a blood-striped black dragon he randomly met would be the source of the black dragon gene in Sakura's body.
That is to say...
Sakura is actually one-fiftieth of the clone of the blood-striped black dragon in front of her?
etc!
Li Zheng suddenly thought of something and looked at Miriel with surprised eyes.
Sakura still has one-fiftieth of the Succubus Queen's genes in her body, so could it come from Miriel's mother?
In this way, Miriel's life experience is intriguing!
Could it be that the Succubus Queen's goal in sending Miriel to the outer city is a large-scale reality show "Where's Dad?"
Li Zheng was overwhelmed by the large number of elements he received in a short period of time and could hardly breathe.
This is too bloody!
"Why are you looking at me like this?" Miriel looked at Li Zheng blankly.
