Whispers of the Dragon

Chapter 32

The totem in front of me came from more than 700 years ago.But why did it appear on them again?

It turned out that Alexander saw the same totem here and described it.

Xuexian looked at the totem and walked forward as if bewitched.When he got closer, he found that the lines of these totems were actually hollowed out, like some pipes for conveying something, with different patterns going in different directions-there were six circular grooves, which were hard to distinguish without looking carefully. They are hidden under the totem and appear to be raised and lowered.

In a blank space, Xue Xian saw another thing like a switch.

He squatted down and studied for a while, and he was sure that there should be a button here before, so he poked down with the point of his saber curiously.There was a slight sound, the fluttering of those grooves.

Really switch!

With a thought in his mind, Xuexian poked down even harder, only to hear a few "clacks", the switch was sunken in a square shape, and the six circular grooves in the totem protruded outwards!

When the grooves popped out completely, Xuexian recognized at a glance that they were six oval petri dishes.

As a child born in a petri dish, Xue Xian once tried to find out where he came from.

Dr. Bai did not take him to visit his birthplace, but he took out a pamphlet and introduced to him how the people without fertility can have children through petri dishes, and how the temple selects the holy son and cultivates it of.

The Holy Temple cooperates with the habitat medical system to regularly screen the genes of the people in the gene bank.Aberrations affect everyone differently. The temple first selects the least aberrant reaction and most suitable eggs and sperm to combine as fertilized eggs, and then performs secondary chromosome modification on all fertilized eggs.It is very difficult to obtain a fertilized egg that is not affected by distortion at all. It is a one-in-a-billion chance. It is a gift from God and has the power bestowed by God - the temple believes so, so they will also get fertilization Eggs are cultivated into holy sons.

Like all Holy Sons, Xue Xian knew that he was a human being, but he never really regarded himself as a "human being".

They have no place to come from, no place to return to, and they just have special obligations and responsibilities when they come here at this time.

These petri dishes on the Mitheus are all empty and clean.

The reason why this area is very empty may be because it was previously a sterile cultivation area.

Xuexian came to a petri dish, looked at the tubes hanging inside, and imagined a baby appearing in it.He opened the petri dish and wanted to touch the "umbilical cord" with his hand. Just as he stretched out his hand, a needle came out of nowhere and pricked him lightly.

Xuexian withdrew his hand, saw a little blood dripping from the tip of his finger, subconsciously put his finger in his mouth.

hurts a little.

He noticed that there were some numbers on the vessel, the one in front of it was marked "X1545F1", and the one next to it was marked "X1739M4", the meaning of which was unclear.

At this time, a male voice suddenly appeared: "...data analysis...later..."

Xue Xian was taken aback, turned around and saw a holographic projection of an AI portrait where he had previously pressed the switch.This AI is a male with black hair and blue eyes. Due to lack of energy or not being activated for a long time, the projection keeps flickering, and even the slightly upright voice broadcast is intermittent and a little stuck.

"Warning. An unregistered...reformed sample was detected." AI said, "The sample is normal... May I ask if you want to get out of the cabin..."

The petri dishes are all empty, how to get out of the cabin.

And it's also testing Xue Xian's blood now.

Xue Xian felt very strange, and said to himself: "What kind of sample?"

The constantly flashing AI answered his question: "Warning. This modified sample is not registered...can check for you..."

Xuexian said, "Okay."

AI immediately projected a row of dense data, including formulas, numbers, sequences and other detailed information.

But the screen flickered too frequently, so I couldn't see it clearly, nor could Xue Xian. Fortunately, the male AI was still dutifully answering: "The modified sample... traced back to the human gene bank query... number X2779F13..."

Xue Xian's eyes widened, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated a lot, and the eardrums seemed to be separated by a layer of water, buzzing.

Didn't he mean that he was a fertilized egg carefully selected by the temple...

A child of God.

Why is there his information here?

And what kind of modification sample is he?

Unfortunately, without waiting for him to continue listening, and without waiting for the AI ​​to give more detailed information, the entire Mitheus suddenly shook violently, as if the world was spinning.

Xue Xian was caught off guard, his whole body was shaken and fell to the wall, his back and chest hurt.Before he had time to get up, he saw the projected picture and sound flicker for the last time, and then disappeared completely. At the same time, all the lights of the Mitheus disappeared, and fell into a dark silence.

The spacecraft that landed here more than 1000 years ago has finally completely exhausted its last bit of power.

Xuexian stayed where he was for a while.

He couldn't see anything around him, and when his eyes got used to the darkness, he found that the ancient totem lines on the ceiling, floor, and walls shimmered, just like his skin when he was hot, as if it was beautiful.

Xue Xian slowly got up.

The mystery only revealed the tip of the iceberg, but the strange thing is that he didn't panic now, but wondered whether the vibration just now would have any impact on the interior of the cabin, whether it would hinder him from going out, and wondered if the dragon was still there. Outside, was it startled by the sudden movement of the giant Mitheus?

Xuexian wants to see his little dragon.

He walked faster, the totem's dim light could not go very far, and he fell into complete darkness within a few steps.

Fortunately, there is a lighter given by Aino in his pocket for lighting.

Holding the lighter, Xuexian ran all the way towards the way he came.The sound of his running footsteps echoed in the empty cabin, as well as the sound of his gasping more and more quickly. For some reason, he felt flustered inexplicably. That kind of flustered didn’t seem to originate entirely from himself, but——

Tuk Tuk more!

Xuexian ran faster and faster, and fell down twice in the middle, but he ignored the pain, got up and ran to the elevator.

The Mitheus, which had no light source at all, no longer looked like a labyrinth, but like a silent tomb. The way here became long and far away, and Xuexian was trapped in it, and he couldn't find the elevator.

In this confined space, beads of sweat dripped down his forehead and chin to his neck, and immediately after that, there was a dense pain in his limbs, which made him almost unable to stand up.

He and the dragon are connected.

So... Could it be the last shock from the Mitheus that hit the dragon?

Even for a dragon, Mitheus is as big as a huge mountain. It is just a dragon that doesn't understand anything.

Xue Xian was very anxious.

When he finally found the lift and climbed down, his legs gave way and he slid heavily on the floor, and some scattered images appeared in front of him.

Under the night sky, the boundless Gobi, sand and rocks... the pitch-black Mitheus, are constantly changing in his field of vision, being pulled into long dense lines, which is the perspective of a dragon, and Xuexian can feel it. Seeing its great pain, it almost crawled towards the hatch with hands and feet.

Starfall finally appeared.

At the junction of the Gobi and the sky, thousands of meteors are flying across the sky quickly, forming a magnificent spectacle like a waterfall.

Several halos spread out, like diamonds, like colored glaze.

The female star hangs at the other end, exuding a cool-toned blue light, reflecting the waterfall of stars.

Under the sky, there was a silver shadow familiar to Xuexian.

The dragon, who had been looking at the meteor before, was lying on the ground at this moment, in a huge sandpit dug out by it. The dragon's wings spread out, and its whole body was shaking non-stop.

Something must have happened!

Xue Xian ran towards there: "Tu Tu Duo!!"

"Ow—"

The shadow kept flickering in the bunker, almost forming a double image that was hard to see, only the scales and claws could be vaguely seen.It seemed to be struggling, and its body finally formed a phantom in the flickering, and a powerful air current would fill its surroundings, making it impossible for Xue Xian to approach at all.

wrong……

Is that a dragon?

Xue Xian couldn't confirm immediately.

At the moment when he hesitated, the wind and sand blew up, and he was dazzled, only listening to the long roar of a dragon tearing in the strong wind.

"Tu Tuduo—"

Immediately afterwards, everything fell silent.

The dragon is gone.

There is only a bunker left on the ground, and a piece of silver scales that have fallen off.

The star waterfall in the sky is like rain.

Xuexian put his backpack on his back and searched in the Gobi wilderness all night.

He couldn't sense the dragon anymore.

Now he doesn't know what happened or where the dragon went.But he knew it must be in pain, because the pain from it, even now, is still aching in Xuexian's bones.

Xue Xian first thought of the problem of energy leakage.

He wondered if the last vibration of the Mitheus leaked energy again, and the dragon happened to be affected by the energy erosion?

Even the land around here has been eroded so that not a single blade of grass can grow, let alone a dragon made of flesh and blood?

Holding the scales of the dragon in his hands, Xuexian was anxious and worried, completely forgetting to think about what AI and transformation samples he encountered in the Mitheus.

When the sky is dark, the star waterfall gradually disappears.

The flaming star Theia appeared.

The weather started to get hot and dry almost immediately.

There was no shadow of the dragon everywhere, Xuexian began to regret why he had to come here, if he hadn't insisted on coming, the dragon would not have been injured because of it.

He clearly said that he would protect the dragon as well.

At this time, he wished that time could turn back, so he could touch the dragon's head, hug the dragon's neck, stick the dragon's cold scales, and tell it "this time we will go to a place you want to go", " anywhere."

Xue Xian almost couldn't move anymore.

There was only the last bit of water left in the kettle. Before finding the dragon and searching all over the Gobi, Xuexian couldn't drink the water easily.

His legs were heavy, the soles of his feet were blistered, and his throat was cracked and hoarse from the constant shouting.

When the last meteor streaked across the sky, Xue Xian was dazzled, and saw something flash past behind the sand dunes in the distance.

There seemed to be a person lying there.

He rubbed his eyes, worried that it was his hallucination.

But when he looked over again, he was sure that the person lying there was really a person.

How could there be anyone here?Will it be an aberration?

Xue Xian stepped on the sand and strode towards there. Near the person, he picked up a piece of something, which was reflecting light just now.

Silvery white, very hard, are dragon scales.

It was exactly the same as the one in his pocket.

It is tuk tuk more scales.

Could it be that Tududo hurt that man?

Xuexian's heart twitched fiercely, and he simply ran towards that person quickly, but as soon as he saw the person's appearance clearly, he took a step back in shock and fell to the ground.

Lying behind the dunes was a tall young man.

No, Xuexian is not sure whether "he" is...a real person.

He has long silver hair, even his eyelashes are silver, and his complexion is very fair.He has a handsome face, his eyes are tightly closed, his lips are chapped, and his ears are much more pointed than ordinary people.Starting from the back of his ears and lower jaw, there are scattered silver scales growing. From his naked and strong chest down, the terrifying scales become more and more dense, covering from his thin waist to the mermaid line, and then the huge mass ——

Xuexian hadn't seen other people's naked bodies before, her heart skipped a beat, she suddenly looked away, and returned to the man's face.

He's still breathing.

His chest rose and fell gently but steadily.

Xuexian wanted to feel his pulse, but he saw his strangely shaped palm and the black nails on his fingers, which were different from humans.

Xue Xian stayed for two seconds, looked at the silver scales he picked up in his hand, and then at the young man behind the dunes.

He had a ridiculous idea.

This monster-like man... Could it be Tu Tuduo?

This idea is not only ridiculous, but also too unrealistic and too absurd.

But if it wasn't like this, Xuexian really couldn't think of any basis for human beings to grow up like this.He looked at the man again, and this time saw another pale scar on the man's broad chest.

On the dragon's body, beneath those hard scales, there was a scar in the same place.

Xuexian didn't know if he was crazy.

His heart was beating fast, he subconsciously picked up a small stone and threw it at the man.

The man didn't respond and was still asleep.

So Xue Xian stretched out his hand, wanting to touch the scar.

But just as his fingers touched the scar, the young man suddenly twitched his eyelashes and opened his eyes.

It was a pair of cold, golden vertical pupils.
