  Chapter 698 The ancestor of the true dragon, the body of the tinder! (7000)

This is a dense asteroid belt. A large number of star fragments are scattered in the same orbit at a regular speed. They have become smaller and smaller in the explosions and collisions of previous years, but some large fragments are still deliberately preserved. As a location for some facilities.

  'Sleeping Dragon's Nest' is one of them.

It is a true spherical ecological base, which is inlaid on a star fragment as a whole. The hemispherical shape at the top protrudes from the rock mass structure. The transparent observation window can see the dark outer space of the universe, as well as the faint Incomparable sun brilliance.

  The baby dragon is here.

He stared blankly at the depths of the universe—in the depths of the asteroid belt, there are many similar buildings and bases, which stand quietly on the remains of broken stars, but what the young dragon is most concerned about is not these A building that stays put.

   It's the behemoths that swim among the stars.

Ian, who was immersed in the memory of the steel dragon, was slightly taken aback. He was recalling the star map of the Terra star field in his own memory just now, and he was still thinking about where there is an asteroid belt in the Terra star field. He did not remember it. , but the distance from the sun and the surrounding stars told him that his location was the orbit of the Nemes star.

  Then, these asteroids where I am...these star fragments...

   Is it the wreckage of Nemes? !

   And the real dragon is in this place, there is an outer space test site? !

   Before Ian realized that the secret behind the real dragon was astonishingly large, he also had the unbelievable thought of "Could it be that the Nemes star is broken?"

  The young dragon in memory saw a huge monster emerging from the darkness.

   That's a real dragon.

  But it doesn't look like a dragon.

  No... When I saw this giant emerging from the dark asteroid belt, the first thought that came to Ian's mind was actually a question.

  —Exactly, what kind of existence can be called a 'dragon'?

What appeared in front of the young dragon and Ian was a super-giant ark monster with a total length of more than fifteen kilometers. It has a curved wedge-shaped shape, and the upper part of the whole looks like a half-cut part. It is an extremely long acute-angled cone, and the lower part is a ""-shaped structure viewed from the side. The sinusoidal wave light wings formed by the psionic light flow in the subspace spread toward the two sides with the shape structure as the center, forming a shape like The shape of dragon wings.

   On the top of the giant ark, there are rows of devices that don't know whether they are portholes or observation holes, which are shining smoothly and gently.

  Is he a living thing? Or a large wing ship warship?

  A cutting-edge creation from another advanced civilization appeared in front of the young dragon and Ian. While stunned, it also told them an unquestionable reality in an inexplicable way.

  —He is the dragon.

  —The first true dragon, the original true dragon.

  The ancestor true dragon Ertolimu stayed in front of the "Sleeping Dragon's Nest". The silver and black mixed and streamlined outer armor gave people an artistic beauty.

  He stared at the young dragon who was looking at himself through the observation window, and then transmitted the emotional wave representing 'smile'.

  【Nin Boraka, come here, we succeeded】

  Gentle fluctuations came, and soon, another smaller giant beast emerged from the depths of the asteroid belt.

Compared with the first generation of real dragons, this new real dragon also looks very strange—it is a large space dragon whale that looks like a giant water drop, but there are many jellyfish-like tentacles floating on the back of its body. These tentacles expand and spread regularly, causing waves in time and space.

   On both sides of the body, the huge side fins are similar to wings, but softer flesh and blood structures. It has a bouncy feel that makes one wonder what it feels like to roll over it.

  However, compared to the first-generation true dragon, which is more like a mechanical structure as a whole, the second-generation true dragon is more like a living creature.

   As for the third generation of young dragons... they are already completely alive.

  The real dragon named Nain Boraka approached the Sleeping Dragon's nest, and the two huge real dragons and the small baby dragon looked at each other.

   This was the first time that the Iron Dragon Solstner met with his mentor, the Yanji Dragon Nien Boraka, and the ancestor Ertolimu.

At that time, the Steel Dragon didn't know anything, and he didn't know anything. He only knew that he was the only true dragon that broke free and conceived in the sleeping dragon's lair, and was also the only true dragon that survived in that base. .

As one of the few successful individuals in various plans to give birth to a new generation of real dragons, the steel dragon Solstner passed through his childhood very slowly, and his instructors never dared to let him quickly enter adolescence, which is the so-called "work" state'.

  【After entering the working state, our lifespan begins to count down, and after 500 years, we will die of old age】

  The instructor said: [Although various methods can be used to delay, in the final analysis, it is nothing more than playing tricks. If you don't grow up, you will have no wisdom, and entering the suspended animation is essentially the same as death, except that part of the time is skipped]

  【Even the ancestors cannot avoid it】

  【Fortunately, you were born successfully. The ancestor was very happy to know this news before he passed away. It proves that we are not limited to "doomed to die, no future" tool... but a life with hope]

  Steel Dragon did not quite understand the meaning of this sentence at that time, when he understood, it was hundreds of years later.

  But at that time, He was just learning...or in other words, accepting the 'inherited memory' that all true dragons must have.

   "I didn't understand it at all at the time."

Ian heard the voice of the Qiangang Dragon, not from the perspective of the ignorant young dragon, but from the vicissitudes of the will of the old Qiangang Dragon God: "The inherited memory and perspective itself are an extremely It's a huge treasure, but this treasure needs a key—we need to dig out the mysteries and knowledge gradually, but each true dragon has different inherited memories, know-how, and awakened powers are all completely different.”

"True dragons are differentiated because of their own inherited memories. The third generation of true dragons, that is, there are not many dragons like us. Although the plans of the mentors and ancestors are successful, they have great flaws. Many compatriots have not had time to be born in the future,' The egg' just crumbles and shatters."

The voice of the Iron Dragon God was a little tired. He seemed to be purposely telling all those who came after him to inherit the existence of his Steel Dragon Nest: "The raw materials for making dragon eggs are very precious, so after realizing that the success rate is too low, related The research was urgently stopped."

"The mentor was not surprised. He told me that our real dragons have not had the function of reproduction from the very beginning, and their lifespan is also locked. But perhaps it is the mercy of the creators to us, and they have left us the interface of related functions. And part of the news that there is only one scale claw, the mentors and the ancestors relied on this information to create us and create the 'descendants' of the 'third-generation true dragon'."

   “When I was young I used to ask 'why'. Why did we have to be created?”

   "And the instructor told me that these real dragons who have experienced the Broken Star War are all dragons who are afraid of death, so they want to study the methods of immortality and reproduction."

   "As for what is the Broken Star War..."

   At this point, the voice of the Iron Dragon God also became ethereal: 【I only have a little memory】

  Ian saw that the light and shadow around him dissipated, and the real dragon crawling around in the laboratory was gradually distorted and dissipated into fog.

  And indifferent and peaceful voices came from his ears.

  A calm voice said: [The fire seeds must be placed, after losing the Dawn Cradle system, we no longer have the conditions to keep these fire seeds]

  A weak voice said: [Only Terra has the environment to place fire. But there is a reservation for the aborigines, and according to the 'Tinder Reservation Agreement', we cannot interfere with the original planet of the aborigines]

  A soft voice said: [Then transform other planets and place related fires]

  A hazy voice said: [The most suitable place for most of the fire is still the Terra orbit...We can negotiate with the aborigines, we have a contract with their ancestors]

  A cold voice said: [Terra civilization has been destroyed, their descendants do not meet the conditions for fulfilling the contract, and they are no longer pure Terra people. I think they do not meet the 'fire retention agreement' and can be directly executed]

   Then there is the argument.

  【This is sophistry. We cannot interfere with native civilization]

  【But we have more fire left by civilization here, we should protect the party with more numbers】

  【The dead can't block the way of the living, give priority to protecting the existing civilization】

  【They don't need protection, and the Terra civilization also inherited part of the creator's legacy. They have a powerful force comparable to ours, so they must take responsibility—if they are not willing to take responsibility, then they are not responsible. Those who are irresponsible should not exist]

  【In any case, we should reclaim the creator's legacy on Terra, and if necessary, we can use force】

Five grand voices are intertwined with each other. Their voices are just an extremely small part of their language. Its essence is a kind of complex spiritual energy fluctuation. Through the frequency and node of the fluctuation, there are physical sounds as auxiliary marks, The frequency of each spiritual energy fluctuation and the loudness change of material sound are interlaced to form a complete information source.

   Creatures without spiritual power, or without a physical body, are destined to be unable to understand the whole picture of Dragon Language.

  The moment I heard these voices, Ian knew that these five voices were the 'five ancestors' of the real dragon.

  【Tianlu Dragon】【Jingguang Dragon】【Shishu Dragon】【Weaving Sulong】【Wuzheng Dragon】

  The ancestor Er Tolimu was the "Critical Dragon", also known as the "Critical Ark".

  He is the longest-surviving first-generation ancestor true dragon, and this memory is also passed on to Yanjilong, and Yanjilong is passed on to Qiganglong.

  After the Broken Star War, Shihulong sealed himself in the subspace, but even so, with the unblocking time and time again, he came to the end of his life, and died shortly after the birth of the steel dragon.

  The Fragmentary Star Wars is a battle between the five ancestors of the true dragons. The above words are just the most trivial point of their differences.

Their war shattered the Nemes star, and the planet named God's Punishment suffered the divine punishment of the first five dragon gods. Its star body shattered and became a vast asteroid belt, which was evenly broken up, like Crushed biscuits.

  As one of the victors, Archaeological Dragon Ertolimu is also the ancestor of almost all existing third-generation true dragons.

  —Ian has a lot of memories in his mind.

  Steel Dragon's power resonates with the ancient dragon's core, and it also resonates with the ether crystal. The psionic mysteries left by him seem to be based on the concentration of Ian's dragon blood for information inheritance.

If it is an ordinary dragon blood inheritor of the second or third level, it is absolutely impossible to get much relevant information, but Ian is different... Even if it is broken and damaged, the ancient dragon core that originated from Mr. Hilliard is still the real fifth Energy level sublimation organs.

  It passed the identification of the mystic lock left by the Iron Dragon, so Ian can get more information.

  Of course, if Gu Long's core doesn't work, Ian still has the silver chip.

  The hazy fragments of light and shadow are still flickering.

The baby dragon is growing gradually, and its strength is also improving. Even on the edge of the orbit far away from the sun, the real dragon can gradually grow up by virtue of the remaining core heat in Nemesis, and when it grows to the fourth energy level, Xi The steel dragon can go to Metis, the tenth planet of Terra, to draw energy from a huge gaseous giant star.

  It is a giant gaseous planet with the potential of a brown dwarf star. There are many asteroids surrounding it. There are even many areas on the asteroids that meet the conditions for the existence of life. Some true dragons have built lairs there.

  After the steel dragon achieved the fourth energy level, the mentor found him.

  【Go to Terra】

Having experienced the Battle of Broken Stars, the second-generation true dragon who was also aging slowly said: [The ancestors are all gone, and we who need to abide by the rules most are also getting old... You who were created by our hands will not Restricted by the rules]

  【Go there, reclaim the legacy left by the creator, that is what we must recycle... and those fire seeds, we must also recycle, protect them, and not let those tombstones and last words of civilization be lost in our hands】

   "But those sparks are lost."

  The young steel dragon said: "They have become a part of Terra—and the civilization of Terra has also been polluted by these fires...or sublimated."

  "They are not separated from each other, the civilization and memory of thousands of stars, stories and power are all integrated there."

   "Moreover, human beings have indeed received the legacy of the creators, and among them there are existences comparable to our strength. The ancestors signed a contract with the apex. We help each other at critical moments, but do not interfere with each other on weekdays."

【Yes】

  The instructor said: [But the top seats who signed the contract have long since passed away, and we are about to leave—so you should go to Terra, go there, and as yourself, sign a new contract with the people and civilization there alone]

  【Sol Steiner, you are free, the third generation true dragon not restricted by the founding rules】

  【You have to find your own way—just think of it as it is for me, find what I want to find, the 'Law of Immortality of the True Dragon'】

  【Go to Terra, leave this dead dragon's lair】

  Steel Dragon was silent.

"All right."

   He said: "It should be for you."

  The young dragon turned around under the watchful eyes of the mentor, and he spread his wings and set sail in the dark asteroid belt that had sunk into silence.

  The real dragon flew towards the direction of the bright stars, and finally came to a land full of vitality.

   "At that time, I actually didn't understand anything. The asteroids contained abundant resources, and a whole planet was smashed into pieces, and evenly turned into various resources to make us grow."

  Steel Dragon God's voice sounded again, with a nostalgic tone. He and Ian watched from the mentor's perspective together with Ian, watching the back of his young self leaving the 'homeland' alone: ​​“Then.”

   "I have ushered in the beginning of my real life."

  Ian knew what the Iron Dragon God was talking about—the memory of the Dragon God that the young man got in the twilight cradle was inherited from this place.

The giant dragon that descended from the sky came to Terra. He fought with others of the same kind that came to Terra earlier, and negotiated with the human empire. He walked in the wilderness, looking for the "creator's legacy" that the teacher said... He got In return, He graciously allows these little people to live by his side.

   And then... that's it.

  The time has flowed from generation to generation, and has witnessed the alternation of generations. The Iron Dragon has become the God of Iron Dragon, and the little people living in His kingdom... have also become mountain people.

   And at this moment, when he was getting old, Solstner, the steel dragon, understood the meaning of his life and why his mentor wanted him to go to Terra.

  Why all the true dragons go to Terra.

   “Because we are meant to be with people. With civilization.”

  The old voice said with a smile: "Because we are not immortal creatures, because we have no descendants."

   "When I was approaching the end of my life, but I didn't want to die, I wanted to continue to live, and continue to protect these villains... I understood the teacher's wish."

   "Because I want to continue my dream, continue my spirit and thinking, so I want to create a creature with my own blood..."

  “I want to have a deeper relationship with them (mountain people). Not just faith.”

   "They could be my children."

   "And the origin of all these desires...the reason why our third generation of true dragons and the fourth, fifth, and even more generations of true dragons will be born."

   "It is precisely because the essence of our existence is the 'fire'."

   "Life born of fire."

Endless interlacing of light and shadow, an old real dragon with a silver-gray carapace was constructed in front of Ian. He stood silently in the void, with a long tail hovering around his side, and his wings were surrounded by endless black mist , as if in the underworld.

  Steel Dragon God's remaining memory stared at Ian with dim silver dragon pupils.

  【Successor of future generations, are you a dragon? Or a human who got dragon blood? It doesn't matter, whether you are a dragon or not]

  He said calmly: [Now, I want to tell you the nature of the real dragon]

  【The real dragon is the 'fire seed'. At the very least, we, the third generation of true dragons, are existences that were catalyzed by our ancestors and mentors using the 'fire']

  He raised his hand and pointed to the extremely bright silver light behind his chest shell, where the 'core' was: [My real name is 'Sol'. Stena is not my name, but the name of the "fire civilization" collected by the creators who gathered everything on the home planet, turned it into fire, and launched it into the void of the universe long ago]

[According to the tutor's guess, the original real dragon was used to observe many creatures and civilizations in the star sea, and record and save all of them. In the process of observing a civilization, our real dragon also Will gradually grow, arm themselves with their technology, and become the most powerful creature on that planet (Ultimate One)]

  【Is this for harvesting or protection? According to the tinder civilization preservation agreement we have in our body, both the ancestor and the mentor consider it to be 'protection'. Our predecessors should intervene in the disputes of civilizations and guide them not to destroy themselves. In order not to affect the development of civilizations, we can only use the technologies we have observed, and we cannot use too advanced power]

[For example, the technology I inherited from the 'Stella Civilization' created my 'inherited memory'... Theoretically speaking, as long as I grow to a full body, I can have the same power as the entire Stella Civilization, and I will also use the power of this civilization to protect and guide them themselves]

  【A star field can only have one real dragon. After the 500-year period passes, there will be new real dragons to replace, to avoid the accumulation of skills and emotions that make us biased... just like my feelings for the mountain people]

  【However, Terra is special】

[I don't know why it is special, but there are indeed five ancestors and a dozen mentors gathered here... They are silent about this, and they don't make any expression on the Prisoner Star Prison... But there is no doubt that Terra is special, True dragons of the level of the five ancestors should not exist in a single star field at all, they came for an extremely huge plan]

  【But that plan has ended before it even started... The creator who led the plan had an accident】

   Speaking up to this point, Qianganglong's memory froze.

When he spoke again, it was already another topic: [Only when you reach the fourth energy level and condense your heart light into an entity, the real dragon is the real real dragon, which can be counted as 'mature' and holds the real fire inheritance , has the power to create a new 'ecosystem' centered on oneself]

  【This ecological circle is the ecology of those civilizations in the 'Tinder'. Our existence itself can transform the planet and the earth, so that life from alien stars can multiply in strange worlds】

[This is the mystery of true dragons, and it is also the reason why all true dragons who stay in Terra instead of going to Dragon Island will build their own Dragon Kingdom—we will naturally transform the world, and in times of crisis, create our own The country and civilization continue the existence of the fire ecology in the body]

  【But I didn't do that... I don't want to spread my ecology, the fire of Stena civilization has been left in the steel dragon's lair】

  【My real people are mountain people】

  【And before my death, or before I died in a confrontation with other true dragons, I have been researching a technology... a technology that can make true dragons】

  【It is not the technology that our mentors and ancestors made us, nor the technology that makes the real dragon live forever... but the technology that turns a non-characteristic human into a real dragon step by step】

  【Besides me, there are many people and dragons studying it... Worshiping the Dragon Cult, what an interesting group of people】

He smiled and said meaningfully: [Although we did not succeed until my death, I did leave my brand in the blood of all the mountain people... Their inheritance of dragon blood will be greatly improved, even if it is Can adapt to very harsh environments...]

  【Of course, this is no different from ordinary dragon blood holders. Jin Zhimin also has similar abilities, but at the very least, I have mastered part of the power to change the essence of human blood】

  【I know that after I die, these people who were united because of me in the past will split up and even fight with each other... Life is selfish and greedy, I understand them】

  【So, I give them the unity of blood—as long as there are my emissaries, the mountain people will understand that they are really one, and they are the people of my iron dragon Solstner】

  【I will give them the 'Consensus of Blood'】

  The old real dragon looked at Ian, and he calmly said: 【If you want to inherit my inheritance, this is the only condition】

  【Be my messenger, protect my people】

  【It doesn't take too long, it doesn't need too much, as long as they don't perish, awaken the 'blood consensus'】

  At this moment, Ian was completely stunned.

  He finally understood why every true dragon could not understand or accept each other.

  He finally understood why the dragon soul of the real dragon was so special that it could accept any kind of body.

  He also finally understood why, as the fifth generation true dragon, Xiou, who was conceived by the mother, turned out to be a blank piece of paper, not the complete successor of the King of the Mountain!

  Because... the blood of the true dragon's essence is not those powers!

   Those powers are essentially derived from the fire, from the civilizations they have observed! The real power of the real dragon is the 'universality' that can completely adapt to any civilization, any life form, and any form of existence!

   They are indeed related to the fire...because they are the fire of civilization itself!

   After understanding all this, Ian also understood the wish of Qiangganglong.

  Mountain people are essentially a group of different Terran peoples. Among them, there are people of iron, people of gold, people of white, and people of red. In general, it is a great fusion.

   And Qian Ganglong hopes to create a group of "Dragon People" in a true sense with his own power!

   He did not succeed. So look forward to the latecomers to complete it.

   "You don't need to tell me."

   Let out a deep breath, and look at this ancient memory.

  Ian replied calmly: "I will do the same. Or, I have already done so."

  Of course, it's not just the people of the dragon... His goal is not just to protect a nation.

   Instead, go higher and farther...farther than the true ancient lairs of the true dragons, beyond the stars.

  High above the sky.

  【That is a promise. Moreover, they still exist]

  The ancient real dragon closed his eyes, his face covered by solid scales couldn't see any expression, but the fluctuation of his soul seemed to be smiling: 【This is a good thing】

  In an instant, in the soul space, the phantom of the steel dragon Solstner shattered, and it became endless surging memory fragments, and the turbulent scenery clouds gathered towards Ian.

   And Ian took a step forward, facing these memories that he had experienced once a long time ago.

  The young man felt a sudden burning pain in his right hand, and a silver dragon's head imprint appeared on the back of his hand.

  On the dragon head, there is a crown of steel thorns hanging high.

   Recommend an old friend's book "Dragon Family: Starting from Digging the Corner of Kassel"! Although it is a seedling, the plot is very interesting. The author is also an honest and responsible person. He doesn't know anything except updating. You can bookmark it!
