Chapter 1070: Prepare early

Name:Sword of Daybreaker Author:Yuan Tong
To be honest, when he saw this dragon egg, Gao Wen really felt the same confusion as Amber: the dragons did not want to send such a special... "gift" to him. , I always have to consider the follow-up processing method, but the key lies in how to deal with this thing-Gao Wen suspects that similar things have not happened since the history of mankind, although many knight hero biographies love to When the dragon pulls into the story, he will also describe what the protagonist got the dragon egg by chance and became a partner after hatching, but now everyone knows that this kind of bridge is almost like Merita. The boring dragon wrote and played by himself...

So, what should I do with such a dragon egg? Hatched? How to hatch?

Merita looked at Gawain and then at the dragon egg, before she smiled awkwardly: "Actually...you want to try to incubate it, after all, our leader just asked me to **** the dragon egg. Here you are, but I didn’t explain how to deal with it afterwards. I think it was after the fall of the gods that I didn’t leave a more detailed entrustment. According to my understanding...this should be what you mean by your own disposal."

Gao Wen thought about it carefully, and couldn't help but ask curiously: "Will you hatch eggs?"

As soon as this word came out, he felt something was wrong, and the sights of Heidi and Amber next to him became weird. He realized that this straightforward statement was somewhat frivolous, but for a while he couldn't think of a better one— -After all, racial and cultural differences are still there, so he has to bite the bullet and continue to maintain his unmoving look.

Melita was also visibly stunned after hearing Gawain’s words, and then a trace of restraint appeared on her face, but fortunately, she didn’t seem to care too much, just laughed awkwardly: "This... actually I I don’t have any experience. I just learned some theories recently. I can tell you how to incubate dragon eggs, but I don’t think I have free time..."

"No, no, I didn't plan to let you help yourself," Gao Wen said quickly, "it would be great to provide some theoretical guidance..."

Melita suddenly became even more embarrassed: "That...that's okay...but I want to state in advance that the nature of this dragon egg is very special, and we are not even sure whether it can actually hatch, so even now I tell you the method, you may not be able to hatch anything, or even more exaggerated...Even if the hatching method is correct, this dragon egg may take a very long time to break the shell, and you may even have to specialize for this. Preparing to build a long-running empire incubator..."

The topic seems to be slipping all the way in a weird direction. Amber, who is very nervous and not too big to watch the excitement, feels that this energy is too strong, she can't help coughing twice, breaking the silence on the side : "I won't discuss this kind of details. You can tell us roughly about the incubation conditions of normal dragon eggs."

Amber's sudden interruption broke the awkward atmosphere a little, Melita's thoughts that had begun to flutter finally stabilized, she coughed twice, and quickly reorganized her vocabulary in her mind. Then she took a breath and nodded and said: "Okay. Well, let me talk about how to incubate dragon eggs-basically, the incubation of dragon eggs needs to meet two conditions at the same time. The first is a suitable temperature, which is consistent with most oviparous organisms, and the second is continuous The constant magical stimulation makes this one special.

"The temperature is relatively easy to handle. The incubation temperature range of the dragon eggs is actually very loose. Even the current room temperature here meets the conditions, and the more suitable temperature is roughly..."

Melita talked about an approximate temperature range, and then continued: "Compared with temperature, magical stimulation is a more important factor. Dragons are extremely powerful magical creatures. Our magical affinity talent is so strong that Even at the stage of being an egg before hatching, it can interact with the magic in the environment-the dragon egg needs to grow under the stimulation of pure arcane energy. I suggest that you use a magic net that can run continuously and stably to create a hatchery , Put the dragon egg in it..."

Merita explained the method of hatching dragon eggs in detail, Gawain seriously remembered from the side, Heidi even summoned enchanting parchment and a pen from nowhere, and used the detailed process with her eyes light. The magic reinforcement record has become a magic scroll, and Gao Wen understands this very well: this is the knowledge to hatch dragon eggs! Who else in the whole world has been exposed to such secrets? If it weren't for Tarrond's big incident that Melita brought eggs to visit, how could this secret spread to the human world?

To be honest, Heidi just found a scroll to record without convening the entire research department on the spot to conduct an on-site discussion. This is already extremely restrained...

A few minutes later, Melita finally finished her story, and Heti, who was so fluent in his pen, finally breathed a long sigh of relief. This mage lady, who hadn’t enjoyed research for a long time, looked at her record with satisfaction, and then suddenly wrinkled slightly. Frowning, as if thinking of something: "I didn't expect the real way to hatch dragon eggs would be like this... As far as I know, there is a book called "The Wizard Ra Dong and the Red Dragon Egg" once described the incubation of dragons. , The book says that dragon eggs need to be soaked in magma to mature gradually, and they must be repeatedly struck by lightning when they break their shells..."

Having said that, she couldn't help but shook her head, with a complicated smile on her face: "The book describes this process in a very conclusive manner. The book itself contains a lot of magic knowledge in the real world, so much so. Scholars doubt that the content written in that book is true. Some scholars who are keen on studying the mystery of dragons even use "The Wizard Ra Dong and the Red Dragon Egg" as a professional "dragon learning reference book" to study... …I really don’t know how they will react when they know the truth."

Heidi sighed with emotion, but Gawain glanced at Merita's face unconsciously, and caught a touch of embarrassment in the other's expression. He immediately reacted and tentatively asked: "Wait, Merita, The book Heidi mentioned...could not be you..."

"No, I didn't write it!" Melita immediately waved her hand to clarify herself, and then smiled awkwardly, "It was written by a friend of mine..."

Amber rolled his eyes and asked subconsciously: "The friend you mentioned..."

"It's really my friend," Melita sighed helplessly. "His name is Calador. In fact, he is my elder by age, but we belong to the Mithril treasure house and we are colleagues at work. He is in the human world. When traveling, he will be transformed into a red-haired wizard.'La Dong' is his most commonly used pseudonym-but later because of his job transfer, he rarely appeared in the human world."

Gao Wen, Heidi and others: "..."

The embarrassment struck again. After a while, Gao Wen broke the silence while holding his forehead and sighed: "The dragon walks in hiding in the human world, and the human world will not leave traces of the dragon clan—but our books and stories leave you everywhere. Misfortune."

"This... speechless." Merita murmured awkwardly, and Amber next to him immediately took out a small notebook from her small bag and wrote it down, and was patted on the head by Gawain: "Don't remember the sentence just now!"

Suddenly, Amber Ji Ling had to put away the small notebook in anguish, and murmured with regret: "It's a pity, such a poetic sentence-the second half is very deep."

"Forget it, it's all things in the past. The times are different, and the dragon will also make changes. Since you intend to return to the world of mortal races, the way we get along will become open and transparent in the future. Things messed up... Just use it as a small episode before the dragons and other races officially "get acquainted"," Gawain shook his head, trying to get the topic back on track, "I have recorded the hatching method of the dragon egg, but I have another one. Question, if something goes wrong in our incubation process, such as a short interruption...will it cause the dragon egg to die?"

Gao Wen felt that it was necessary for him to inquire about the details in advance-although he had not made up his mind to incubate this dragon egg, he didn't even think about how to face this theoretically "Enya relic". But it doesn’t hurt to know some things in advance.

"Don't worry too much about it," Merita nodded and replied, "The vitality of the dragon egg is stronger than you think, at least the normal dragon egg is like this. Even if there is a problem during the incubation process, as long as it is not the dragon egg It will not die easily if it is broken or thrown into the magma and cooked by you. At most, it will suspend its development for a period of time, and then continue to grow after the conditions are right.

Gao Wen exhaled: "I'm relieved."

After that, Melita and Gawain talked a lot about the dragon egg, and a lot about the status quo of Tarrond, about the future of the dragon race, about the grand plan of Gawain-they were sitting Talking freely on the sofa in the living room, the dragon egg not far away stood quietly under the light, Heidi personally prepared tea and snacks, and Amber and Rebecca went round and round the dragon egg to study together. The two people each had a lot of wild ideas, and they were also excited about the discussion.

It's been a long time since Gawain had enjoyed such a peaceful and peaceful time-the same goes for Merita.

On this private occasion, both the ambassador of Tarrond and the ruler of the Cecil Empire temporarily removed their identities. They seemed to have returned to the time when they first met and talked as friends for a long time, until it was getting late, May It's time for Rita to leave.

In fact, Gawain can arrange a guest room for the Blue Dragon lady in Cecil Palace, but at this time he must consider the identity of the other party's "Talrond Ambassador"-without prior notice. Under the circumstances, leaving the ambassador overnight is not in line with the rules after all, and Melita also hopes to return to her family as soon as possible.

When Miss Lan Long was about to walk to the exit of the living room, Gao Wen suddenly remembered something, and stopped the other party behind: "Yes, wait a moment."

Melita stopped and looked back at Gawain curiously: "What's the matter?"

Gao Wen hesitated, but couldn't help asking: "The Mithril Treasury...is there still?"

"...Is gone," Melita's eyes flashed a little lonely, but she soon recovered the slight shake, "but I have a plan that seems to be too naive now...I hope to rebuild it. , Even if it will take many years."

Then she laughed suddenly, looked at Gawain and said: "Besides, you don't have to worry, the things you entrusted to us are still well preserved-right here."

While she was talking, she pointed to her head.

"The original copy of the manuscript has been destroyed by the element storm, but I remember the content of the manuscript clearly, I will keep it, and then treat it as the first commission for the reconstruction of the Mithril Treasury-I will be faithful In fulfilling our contract, Mithril Treasury is still worthy of the trust of customers."

"That's good," Gao Wen also laughed, "I am waiting for the good news of the rebuilding of the treasure house."

Melita smiled and bent down and bowed impeccably, then she took a half step back, sighed, "It's great to be able to speak freely", and then turned and left.

After Merita left, Rebecca left next to the dragon egg. She leaned close to Gawain, looked at the direction of the door on tiptoe for a long time, and then muttered, "Go away."

"Talrond's situation seems really not optimistic," Heidi said thoughtfully, sitting down beside Gao Wen. "Although Merita has some details that are still unclear, but from what she revealed It’s not hard to guess the situation... Food, medicine, living space, social order... The dilemma faced by the dragon is far greater than we were at the beginning."

"Although their strength is very strong, the environment in Tarrond is worse," Gawain said in a deep voice, "I feel very lucky now that Tarrond chose to send an ambassador and It’s a blessing for all of us-including humans and dragons-to make positive contact with the human world."

Rebecca thought for a long time after hearing Gawain's words, and found that she couldn't understand: "Huh? Why do you say that?"

"...Although Talrond suffered a catastrophe, the number of surviving dragons, even if only one percent, is still tens of thousands or more, and those powerful creatures can easily pass by with just a pair of wings. Bingyang arrived in the human world," Gawain looked at Rebecca and said patiently and solemnly, "They are hungry-imagine if Merita and her compatriots did not try to control the social order the first time and Choosing to make direct contact with the human world, if the survivors of Tarrond cross the bottom line of the collapse of the social order, what scene would it be like for tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of hungry and desperate dragons to sweep the human congresses? "

Rebecca imagined the scene described by Gawain, and the expression on her face quickly became horrified: "...Mom..."

"It's sighing for a civilization to suffer such an extinction disaster, and it is the dragon that suffered the disaster, this incident is not only sighing," Gawain said in a very serious tone, and he did not scare Rebecca. In fact, when he first received the news from Beigang, he was even scared into a cold sweat-tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of giant dragons became refugees in an instant, and their society was in a state of collapse. The moral bottom line is faltering. No one knows where they are going to "eat". This is enough to make the rulers of all the countries of the world sleepless and sleepless. "Now we say it is not good for Merita to integrate with her compatriots. How many survivors have been raised, and it’s hard to say how many dragons are under the control of the Provisional Government of Agonda, but at least we can be sure that the dragons of Tarrond have not completely collapsed from the group, and the society in some areas The function is still barely maintained, so I can breathe a sigh of relief."

"Then... after a sigh of relief?" Rebecca looked at Gawain with some curiosity, "What are we going to do next?"

"Start preparing supplies and help Tarrond to continue his life, the sooner the better," Gawain said after a brief period of thought. "Although the dragon civilization has been destroyed, it will eventually be a million-year accumulation, even in ruins. An amazing treasure house—this is something that even the Dragons themselves have not even realized. Now our biggest advantage is that we know this news earlier than all countries, so we have to prepare earlier than them.

"This may be our boldest investment so far, with the most amazing return."
