In the early morning after the red flag of the Kremlin was lowered, Ander stood on the deck of the Lenin, looking at the ruins of Black Swan Harbor.
This place was still destroyed in the explosion just like in the original work. After all, this place where evil heretics conduct human experiments is naturally served by Big Ivan, and ordinary bombs are a bit cheaper.
Bondarev died, died in Ender's dragon flames. It didn't matter who he was. As Ender said, as a giant dragon, he would not be afraid of any challenges of fate.
No matter who is standing behind Bondarev, Ender will use dragon's breath to tell him what "Don't Disturb the Sleeping Dragon" means.
However, this little man who kept his head and tail hidden still gave Ender a great gift. On the deck of the Lenin, the pale keel lay quietly on the deck.
The dragon, which had been frozen under the Black Swan Harbor for thousands of years, finally broke out of the ground and was transported to the Lenin by Bondarev.
Ender stood in front of the keel with his human body and carefully looked at the strangely shaped keel. The bones, which were as hard as steel, showed natural curves.
"Mr. Lu, do you want to prepare the sacrifice array?"
Ender shook his head. It was not safe on the ship now. It would be better to wait until we were on the ground.
"Cover it with a tarpaulin and we'll talk about it later."
Just when several dragonborn pulled up the rainproof cloth and prepared to cover the keel, the huge keel suddenly trembled.
Over a long period of time, the dragon's bones have become petrified and its eyes have become cloudy, like white marble balls.
The dragon's left eye trembled and suddenly fell down.
Ender caught it with his mage's hand. The eyeball felt like a cold stone ball, but Ender could feel the majestic vitality from it.
This is the cocoon of this dragon, the most essential part of the dragons in this world, and the basis for their rebirth.
After doing all this, the dragon, which was already a mummy, finally completed its mission. His huge body was coiled into a ball, and the bones and skinny muscles began to liquefy at an abnormal speed.
A white liquid that was very different from the black bodily fluids of ordinary dragons seeped out from between the dragon's bones and muscles, and turned into a stream of milky white steam under the rising sun, filling the deck of the Lenin.
The satellite phone equipped on the ship suddenly rang. Ender stopped the others and walked over to answer the phone.
"Mr. Ender, thank you for telling stories to my girl. This is my gift in return, the authority you like."
Ender hung up the phone and walked from the bridge to the deck. The white liquid melted rapidly in the sun, leaving behind a white crystal.
Ender picked up the crystal and smiled slightly. Although he didn't celebrate Christmas, he liked this gift very much.
"Bring over the stored liquid nitrogen, and the cocoons will be exchanged for foreign currency when the time comes."
Ender directed the Dragonborn to bring the metal can prepared by Bondarev. Now that he had obtained the authority, he took out the cocoon in his hand to attract attention.
According to the original work, Number Zero can change his bloodline and grant others the ability to speak. This may be the embodiment of his ability.
The dragonborn smiled and brought in metal cans and liquid nitrogen. China didn't have much demand for cocoons because they had better choices, but to European and American hybrids, the dragon cocoons were no less than a treasure.
Leave this trouble to the secret party, and the relevant departments will get another allocation next year. The most important thing is that this time the operation division will be famous.
We went to kill a second-generation species that was about to awaken, and rescued countless persecuted children. We were definitely not invading another country's territory.
"Now Angers won't always talk about my resignation."
The incident at Black Swan Port finally has a perfect ending. The Lenin will continue to sail and hand over to China's icebreaker nearby.
Ender planned to leave the grown-up children in China, while he took three of Herzog's most outstanding works, namely the future Genji Brothers and Uesugi Erika, to Kassel College.
It is said that when the sky falls, a tall man must carry it. These three children with the blood of the White King are troubles. Since they are troubles, let Angers have a headache.
I'm just a bastard waiting to die. You'd better go find the great Cassel principal, Hilbert Jean Angers.
Putting the white gem into the space bag, Ender got up and headed to the cabin to see how the children were doing.
Most of the sailors on the Lenin were a group of fringe mixed-races from the Maozi side, who were gathered together by Bondarev.
The Dragonborn also interrogated these people, but soon discovered that these guys were just a bunch of hooligans, the kind who should have entered the Gulag thirty years ago.
This group of hooligans were gathered together by Bondarev with money and luxury goods, and after a brief training they were rushed onto the ship.
Even the first mate didn't know Bondarev's origins, so he just followed his orders mechanically.
Ender walked past the cells where these men were held. The children's cabins were in the middle of the ship, and several of the best rooms had been vacated for these children to live in.
It's just dawn, and these children who were too wild on Christmas Eve have not yet woken up. The hallucinogen has exhausted their energy and made them fall into a deep sleep.
Ender walked through several more rooms, where the twins and the embryos in the suitcase were placed.
Opening the door and entering the cabin, Ander unexpectedly found Chu Jie holding a child sitting on a chair. She was holding a bottle and carefully feeding the child.
Now Chu Jie still maintains a human appearance. This is the result of the few spells she has learned outside of the evocation system, the second-level transformation technique.
With his snow-white hair and wrinkles on his face, Chu Jie looks like an old grandmother who loves her grandson.
Ander sat down on the bed next to him and watched Chu Jie put down the bottle and gently patted the baby's back.
The child coughed twice and fell into a deep sleep again.
"Uncle De, I am going to raise these two babies."
Ander looked strange. Chu Jie had devoted himself to teaching in Kassel these years. In addition to students, he was also accompanied by the younger generations of the Chu family. Why did he suddenly want to raise a child?
"These two babies looked very well-behaved, and I suddenly fell in love with them."
Chu Jie picked up the two children. Although she has been accompanied by students and juniors over the years, in the end they are not very close people.
These days, I interacted and played with those dragonborns. They were only in their fifties or sixties, and they already had grandchildren. When Chu Jie saw these two twins, he thought of adopting them.
Ander sighed. Chu Jie had sacrificed a lot over the years. In addition, Kassel Academy was full of guys who wanted to slay dragons but not women, so they never got married. It was not a bad idea to let her adopt the Genji brothers.
"Whatever, just talk to Angers then, but your juniors will have a headache."
Calculated by seniority, Chu Jie is Chu Zihang's great-grandfather, so the Yuan brothers may become Chu Zihang's great-granduncles.
This wave, this wave of good brothers finally become ancestors.
