Chapter 941: On the back of the dragon

Name:Sword of Daybreaker Author:Yuan Tong
When the dragon climbed through the clouds at an extremely thrilling angle, Gao Wen didn't even feel a little bumpy and strong wind.

This will undoubtedly be an extremely rare travel experience, and he will not miss the observation of any details during this journey. He noticed that Melita seemed to be covered in a layer of nearly transparent body during the flight. In the shield-if it is not the disturbance caused by external airflow and clouds, he will not even find the existence of this shield-the strong wind and temperature changes at high altitudes have not penetrated this shield, and its role is somewhat similar The combination of breeze shield and blessing of wind element, but the effect is obviously far better than the latter two.

After inquiring, he confirmed that this layer of protection is not just to make the "passengers" of this journey more comfortable, but also necessary auxiliary measures for Melita's flight.

"I don't know if Maggie had a similar'protective talent' when he was flying," after crossing the clouds and entering a bright sky, Gao Wen's thinking diverged slightly, "The dragon's flying height and speed seem to It is far more than Dragon Descent, even if it is equipped with Iron Wings..."

"Don't think about these brain-burning things at this time. Are you tired?" Amber stood next to him, chatting casually, and then showing a little bit of excitement. "Hey, it's like a dream! I could have had an experience riding a dragon on my back in my life...Don't dare to blow it like this in the stories of many bards! That's the hero's treatment at the end of the season..."

"After going back, you can blow this thing in the tavern for another half a year, right?" Gao Wen looked at this half-elf who had already begun to get embarrassed. "You must be careful. It's not a few consecutive shadows from falling here." Step problem."

Amber didn't know how to converge, and his posture was getting more serious: "If it is enough for half a year, I can blow it to the Reunion Festival three years later..."

"Relax, it won't fall," a low female voice came from the front. Melita turned her head slightly, and said to the "passengers" on her back, "I'm already protected on the edge of the back scale."

Gao Wen looked at Melita's neck and saw the beautiful scales covered and the **** protrusions behind the side of the blue faucet-they looked majestic and gleamed in the sun.

"It seems that our treatment is indeed much better than that of Modil Wilde six hundred years ago," he said with a smile. "He was hung on your paws and flew all over the ocean."

"Unfortunately, I don't remember," Melita obviously had a chatting mood in this uninteresting flight mission, "but this is also normal, you are the guests invited by the gods, but the adventurer who was six hundred years ago It is an uninvited guest who breaks into the territory of the Dragon race, which can be quite different."

While talking, the Miss Blue Dragon paused again and shook her head with regret: "But... if there is another chance, now I meet the adventurer of that year again, I am true Want to have a good chat with him, we may be able to be friends, I am also willing to use his back to travel to those interesting places, we can even go on adventure together... Ten years, or a hundred years, humans will not live For a long time, this was a very short contract for the Dragon Clan, but I think it should be wonderful.

"After all, from the travel notes, the adventurer seemed to be a very interesting guy."

Gao Wen didn't speak for a moment, but just looked away. He saw the clouds drifting under the wings of the dragon, like rolling hills. There were gaps and wide gaps between the clouds. When Rita passed by from those places, he saw the already distant ground below, and the outline of the coast that was already visible in the distance.

Human cities are dotted between those mountain lakes, shining like gems in the sun.

This is really a beautiful world, and it is worth exploring for an adventurer throughout his life.

"Yeah, that's really a very interesting guy, I admire him," he broke the silence with emotion, and then was a little curious, "You just said that you will sign a 100-year contract with Modiel, go Adventure travel with him-is it serious? The Dragons really do this kind of thing? Just like the story of the minstrel?"

"...In fact, it's not that easy. The long clan needs a strict application and permission process to leave Tallond for a long time," Melita said. "But this kind of thing does happen, but it's rare. Yin Many of the stories of bards are not completely fabricated. After all... bards are the favorite occupation of dragons while traveling in the human world, and we are very good at interpreting facts into stories in a dramatic way."

"Bard... Some bards like to make up the most," Gao Wen unconsciously pouted, and somehow came up with "Mr. Bard" in his mind, and he quickly threw it away. The head, throwing some untimely associations out of mind.

Then he glanced back at the large equipment that was placed on Melita's back-they are still running very well. Although it is already high above the ground, they are still within the scope of the magic static boundary. These special magic The network terminal and the non-directional crystal array can still clearly receive the signals from the high-power hubs on the surface, and the recording device in these devices should have recorded the changes in signal strength and interference during Melita’s climb and flight. .

Frankly speaking, the value of these things in Gao Wen's mind is not less than his trip to Tallond-these valuable data are not usually available, especially after waiting to get off the land and enter the sea. After that, what these devices can collect is even more unreachable parameters of the current imperial technical level.

Therefore, Gao Wen cherishes this opportunity. After all... Although he is very familiar with Melita, he usually can’t ask a dragon to carry several tons of experimental equipment to collect data for humans all day long. In this regard, he has always valued "interests", he also understands a sense of proportion.

"Will we stay in between?" Amber on the side asked casually.

"Actually, I can fly all the way to Tallond-but this journey is not so anxious," Melita replied. "We will rest a few times near the coastline and several islands in the northern waters. You can come down to activities-after all, you are non-flying creatures. This kind of long-distance flight is a great burden for the first contact."

While listening to Melita's answer, Gao Wen couldn't help but think of some ideas about long-stay aircraft, long-distance air routes and so on. He unconsciously deduced what other application directions of the current anti-gravity aircraft of the empire, thinking about the possibility of establishing a long-distance air route to the silver empire from the edge of the wasteland, and his thoughts spread for a while before gradually absorbing.

Then he noticed Veronica sitting not far away.

The "Princess of the Virgin" barely spoke after taking off from Melita-although she always gave people a quiet and tranquil feeling on weekdays, she has been quite silent until now. .

She sat there quietly, her hands folded on her knees, seeming to be in a daze, her eyes were staring at the front without focus, and the platinum scepter that never left was not beside her at the moment-Gao Wen There was no doubt that Veronica had handed that scepter to Wright before leaving, but Veronica's quietness along the way still made him unable to care.

"Are you uncomfortable?" Gao Wen walked over and asked casually, "I feel like you haven't said much along the way."

I don’t know if it’s an illusion. He thinks Veronica seems to be slow to respond. He raises his head and responds to himself with a bland tone: “Thank you for your concern, I’m fine.”

Gao Wen frowned subconsciously-Veronica's feeling at this moment really did not feel right. He thought about it carefully before he could vaguely understand what was wrong: Verona at the moment compared to normal days The card is even less touchy. Although usually Gao Wen always thinks that the princess is not like human beings and delicate like puppets, but that is just a faint feeling, but now... he is really from the other side. Some kind of mechanical rigidity was felt on the body, and even the emotional ups and downs that humans should have disappeared in the rigidity.

He frowned and looked at the other person again and again: "Are you really okay?"

Veronica raised her head, her crystal-like beautiful but inorganic eyes stared at Gao Wen for a long time, and then she nodded suddenly: "Ah, it seems that I have overlooked some details... Please rest assured, I Everything is normal and there is no problem with physical function and thinking ability. However, you should be able to feel something strange... don't worry, it's normal.

"In the case of being away from the mainland of Loren, I will suffer some weakening."

Will there be some weakening when it is far from the mainland of Loren?

Gao Wen immediately noticed the information in Veronica's words. His expression was slightly serious, and there were doubts in his eyes, but before he questioned, Veronica had a smile and said a little lightly. : "This is just the price of survival so far."

"...I get it," Gao Wen stared at the other person for a few seconds, then eased his expression and nodded slightly. "If you don't want to elaborate, I won't ask, but one day I still hope you can Satisfy my curiosity. As for now... just make sure that this "cost" does not affect our mission."

Veronica faced Gavin's gaze with a smile on her face, as if the smile had temporarily solidified. She nodded and said with a calm and calm attitude as always: "Of course, I had calculated it before I set off. ."

...

Dirty clouds surging and rolling, like a disgusting, semi-gelatinous quagmire covering the sky, oppressing the earth, the whole world is more depressed in this drooping cloud layer-than the sky Even more depressing is the land that has died and is severely corrupted and polluted.

The hinterland of the former empire that was impregnated by magic energy and turned into waste soil. The black plated earth is endless. The folds and radial cracks formed by ancient shock waves spread outward at the center. Looking down from the sky, it looks like a giant eye with bloodshot eyes. At the center of this giant eye, there is a huge explosion crater sunken into a crater, and a cone-shaped structure formed by a molten crystal column at the bottom of the explosion crater.

After seven centuries, the Deep Blue Well is still in operation. There is incredible energy surge in the remaining reaction tower. The huge blue beam of light soars into the sky, and the location where the beam of light meets the cloud is continuously lightning.

Around the explosion pit of the Deep Blue Well, there are now many things that did not exist-small fortresses built with some kind of black polymer, there are small sentry towers that seem to grow from plants and stones, and The weird and creepy woods, and a figure moving between the woods and the fortress and outpost.

Those figures are several patrol squads. They are all wearing the magician uniforms of the ancient Gondor era. Both men and women have perfect proportions and exquisite proportions as if they are artificially built. They are patrolling the surrounding area of ​​the imperial capital-one As they did seven hundred years ago.

However, for the newly emerged fortress and sentry tower buildings around the impact pit, these patrol teams seemed to have not seen them. They directly bypassed the obstacles of the road and naturally changed the originally patrolled route.

Even... they looked like they were patrolling here to protect these fortresses.

The area of ​​the black fortress group at the edge of the impact pit, a large number of plant vines and mycelium-like gray material covered the ground and surrounding buildings. With a clattering sound, a plant at the front of the fort suddenly wriggled back to the sides , And several twisted creatures that seem to grow together with humans and trees, have a dry skin and a large number of hyperplastic branches, have been drilled out of underground tunnels.

The chiefs of these twisted creatures moved their roots and stepped to the edge of the impact pit. An old face emerged from his dry and wrinkled bark. The pale yellow eyes inlaid on the face looked at the bottom of the impact pit-- The shining "Crystal Pillar Hill" and the blue light sprayed from the crystal are reflected in these eyes, making the latter more greedy and yearning.

"Dark Blue Well...We are only one step away from it..."

The leader of the tree murmured to himself, he shook his branches, and a vine at the border of the fortress immediately received the command, raised high and extended towards the impact pit-but the front ends of those vines had just crossed the border, At the bottom of the pit, "The Hill of Crystal Pillars" reacted instantly. With several bright lights flashing, the vines that crossed the border were directly burned into a gaseous state by the hot plasma beam.

"Damn it! Damn tomb, **** coffin, and these **** tomb-keepers! Seven hundred years, can't you **** everything honestly?!"

The leader of the tree, the incumbent "President of All Things Will Die" suddenly broke out and scolded.
