In the empty corridor, Ender's fist hit the bronze door, making a huge noise, accompanied by the dragon's roar echoing in the air.
The face on the bronze door twisted a few times, and a bronze snake emerged from the crescent-shaped eye frames, leaving a strange mark on the huge and funny face.
The grinning mouth on the face moved, and Lu Mingfei actually saw a trace of embarrassment on this face.
"What are you doing here again? You can't even see the door!" Ender glared and stared at the opposite side: "If you hadn't been able to chat with me, sooner or later I would have replaced you with the automatic door.
.”
The face on the door twitched a few more times, and the smile became a little humble. A somewhat frivolous male voice came from the door: "Boss, those machines are not as good as mine. I haven't had anyone come here for a long time."
"Stop talking nonsense and open the door." Ender looked at the living creature he had rescued from the Nibelungs. This guy had become more and more lazy over the years, often sneaking out to fish.
The bronze door trembled, and with a clicking sound, the door leading to Ander's Dragon Cave finally opened.
"Hey, this is the young master, he looks very talented." The bronze snake on the door was still swaying, staring at Lu Mingfei and complimenting him.
"Um, thank you." Lu Mingfei nodded to the bronze snake, turned around and looked at the space behind the door with some fear.
"Remember next time, don't cause trouble there." Ender flicked the snake's head that was still dangling: "Or I'll let you look into the toilet."
"Absolutely not, absolutely not, I was just chatting with Lao Luo." The snakehead shrank back and did not dare to say more.
Lu Mingfei on the side did not pay attention to these things. The space behind this talking bronze door exceeded his imagination.
Various sculptures are placed together, marble, wooden, iron, Chinese, and Western. These human-made treasures are placed together in a messy way, but with a touch of alternative.
order.
A marble sculpture of a young girl was placed on one side of the door, leaning down as if listening to something. There was a smile on her quiet face, which reminded Lu Mingfei of Chen Wenwen's smile when she was reading.
The marble carves out smooth clothing patterns, making the girl's clothes appear to be wide and fluffy. From Lu Mingfei's angle, she can see her beautiful and playful curves through her neckline.
At this moment, the statue of the girl moved under Lu Mingfei's gaze, stood up straight, and performed a chest-thumping salute to Ander.
"Captain, welcome back, is this boy your son?" The voice of the statue made Lu Mingfei stunned.
Completely different from what he thought, the statue's voice did not have the lightness and playfulness of a girl. Instead, it had a hint of hoarseness and deepness, and the magnetic voice was like a weather-beaten old sailor.
"Why?" Lu Ming asked unconditionally.
"Why why?" The girl statue came over and put her jade-white hand on Lu Mingfei's neck, but Lu Mingfei didn't feel the fragrance at all.
"Why is it that I, a man, look like a woman? Why is my soul not going to Valhalla but being bound in a damn, superficial statue?"
The marble statue roared and held Lu Mingfei's neck.
"I was the most outstanding warrior back then, but now, I can't even pick up father and son. I can only pinch other people's necks with my weak hands like a woman."
Lu Mingfei felt the hand on his neck tightening, but the next second, the frivolous voice just now sounded.
"Lao Luo, you are sick again and you are going to strangle this kid to death."
The bronze snake swam on the white jade-like body of the statue and coiled around the wrist of the statue. Lu Mingfei felt the hand on his neck loosen.
"I'm sorry, young master, Lao Luo cares more about this. Don't be angry with him."
The bronze snake wrapped around the wrist of the statue and apologized humbly to Lu Mingfei. Ander came over and introduced to Lu Mingfei:
"This is Lorelei, commonly known as Lao Luo, who is the housekeeper of my dragon lair.
In fact, it wasn't his before, but the previous one retired and returned to China, so I could only rely on her to support him."
"What is this?" Lu Mingfei touched his neck in shock: "A moving statue?"
"It's actually a living spirit, a strange alchemical creation. The general principle is to use alchemy to imprison the soul of a living person in a dead thing to act as a controller." Ender explained.
"In my opinion, this is a very wasteful approach. You know, those pseudo-dragons can't even open the door easily."
Ender curled his lips disdainfully. The dragons in this world were very rough in the use of souls. For those machines that needed to be moved, the dragons in this world usually used living spirits.
The human soul is imprisoned, but the order to be executed is to simply open and close the door. This kind of thing actually needs to be controlled by a living spirit.
This was as wasteful as playing Minesweeper with a computer equipped with a 3080Ti graphics card, so Ander, with the help of the vice principal, made some modifications to the living things, allowing them to complete more work.
Like chatting with him or something.
"Actually, Lorelei was originally a living statue used by the Dragon Clan for defense," Ender pointed at the sculpture of the girl and said, "The order he was given was to strangle every human he faced."
The sculpture named Lorelei forced out a smile and waved to Lu Mingfei.
"Later I freed his soul, because at that time I needed a maid or something." Ander said helplessly: "It turns out that the soul in this sculpture is a Viking from the 10th century AD.
But I have to say that this guy is quite competent, so as you can see, I have an extra maid who can move and chat."
"But he just wanted to strangle me to death." Lu Mingfei looked at Lorelei's hand with lingering fear.
"He won't. I have set up protective measures." Ander said firmly: "It's just that he won't die anyway."
"Okay, stop standing around like this, Lorelei, take us to the weapons room." Ender ordered.
The marble statue saluted to Ander, and strode forward to lead the two of them to the other side of the treasure house. Without stopping, he kept asking Ender to change his body.
Ander ignored him, but turned to Lu Mingfei and introduced: "This is my treasure house. I am a more traditional dragon and like to collect wealth."
Lu Mingfei looked at the surrounding environment. Most of the statues at the door just now were classical sculptures, but now there were many modern-style statues in this section. Among them, Lu Mingfei also saw a familiar figure.
"Uncle De, is that...Gundam?" Lu Mingfei pointed to a Gundam model that was as tall as a person. This Gundam stood out among the many weird post-modern sculptures.
"Yes, the 1:6 scale Original Gundam, all joints are movable." Ander said with some pride: "I designed and assembled all the accessories myself, and also added some functions."
Ender cleared his throat and shouted: "Destruction mode activated."
Along with Ender's voice, the sound of motor rotation came from inside the original Gunpla. The white outer armor cracked, revealing the red light strip on the back, giving this classic Gunpla a murderous look.
"This can transform?" Lu Mingfei exclaimed: "This is so cool."
Looking at his uncle's somewhat terrifying dragon head, Lu Mingfei was a little surprised that a dragon would actually like Gundam, but Ander's next words made him even more surprised.
"Don't look at me like that. I only watch the Japs' cartoons for research. In fact, due to the situation on the Japs' side, the literary and artistic works they created have a very close relationship with the Dragon Clan."
