Chapter 197 – Dragon Launch
Half a month later, as David expected, the red-robed mage who regularly came to the Bedouin Barbarian Tribe to acquire ‘old magic items, old components, and old ancient books’ was lured by this floating city that appeared out of thin air in the middle of the Great Desert of Annalok, or more precisely, was sent by the Sel Red-robed Mages’ Guild.
The commotion caused by the descent of the ‘City of Shadows’ was so great that it was directly detected by the Red Robe Mages’ Guild that was far away on the other side of the continent.
And undoubtedly, this Red Robe that was permanently stationed at the edge of the Anarok Great Desert was the closest.
So this red robe named Davo didn’t even have time to acquire the wreckage of Nesser, but rushed over, and then without the slightest suspense was caught by David and the others.
As a red-robed mage who was cautious by nature, naturally he could not easily place himself under unknown dangers, how could he not help that his presence had long been sold by the Bedouin barbarians who were eager to please their new master.
When caught by David the red dragon into the city and tied to a similar ‘dissecting table’, Davo’s heart was broken.
It was as if he was back to the time when he was a red-robed apprentice, and at one point he was randomly selected by his mentor to be one of the lucky ones, and then became the lecture and test prop for the class.
But falling into the tutor’s hands, as long as you were resourceful enough to be felt worthy of being nurtured by the tutor, at least it wasn’t that easy to hang up on the spot.
But now, he had fallen into the hands of a group of infamous ‘Nether People’!
It must be known that these lunatics had already traveled to space through magic ships thousands of years ago, and even went to the legendary Yuman’s Dock in the Heavenly Realm, where they were subjected to ‘Restricted Entry’ because of their reckless abduction of ‘aliens’, and in the end, their investment in space was dismissed because the return rate was too low. In the end, it was because the rate of return on investment in space was too low and dismissed Grand Arcanist Oberon’s follow-up strategy to continue space development.
When the old devil Dharonas, who played the role of Shadowy Soul City’s lord Shado, sniffed the news and used a dissecting knife with a curious and serious face to dismantle his scalp covered in black aragonite from his brain shell, this red-robed mage finally couldn’t hold himself back, and tearfully said that as long as he was spared, he was willing to turn his back on the red-robed mage guild at any cost, and be a lackey who was loyal to the ”Shadowy Soul City”. ‘.
Under the pressure of this kind of psychological shadow, David quickly got what he wanted to know from the mouth of this red-robed, but it was a little worse than what he expected.
The history of the red-robed mage’s Sel, the slavery country, although it could be traced back to the Valley Calendar-1000 years ago, that is, the end of the Nethereal Empire, but at that time, the Red Robe Mages’ Guild hadn’t even been established yet, and what they were using was more of a sorcery than a spell.
Even if the Nethersole floating city Valley Calendar-339 years fell a ground broken, far away in the far east of the land they do not even know this time, that is, as the saying goes, eat that what can not catch up with a mouthful of hot.
And at that time active in the vicinity of Annarok, it was the Elfan elves of Ellefan.
Later, after the rise of Nesser with the help of their magic and Nesser Scrolls, this group of elves in the east of Comanso established the Misty Strono, only to develop nearly three thousand years has been not hot, until Nesser Ruil fell after five hundred years, that is, the Valley Calendar 261 years, the year of the Ascension, the Iltagrim began to organize the elf mage to make the Misty Locks was finally completed, but also the Misty Strono stepped into the beginning of the Golden Era.
Rumor has it that the maze-lock, which was able to protect and hide the entire city-state, continued to function without sleep for over four centuries until it was overrun by the ‘Army of Darkness’ led by the Three Demons in the year 714, which began a mass migration overseas to the island of Winged Gathering.
Hearing this, Davy and Dragonfather Attilicia looked at each other in disbelief, where they could not understand the truth.
The remains of those mithril energy cores in the remains of Nesriel were definitely hollowed out by that group of Elfan elves, and most likely there is one that is close to being relatively intact, which was repaired by the elves and used to supply energy to the mithril locks of Mistrono.
Even if they hadn’t been destroyed in the war, they would have been taken back to the island during the retreat.
The mithril energy core, more than likely, is out of the question.
It was impossible to go to the High Elves’ lair on Yongju Island to get Mithril Nuclei, right?
Even if it did exist, David didn’t think it was possible to get this kind of thing from the legend-beaten Yongju Island with just his own group of half-baked people, and it was also very likely that this would alert the snakes.
In the next half a month, they captured a few spies from the Scattered Tallinn Society, Silver Moon Federation, Zokara and other neighboring forces, and the information they got from their interrogation all confirmed this point.
Just when all the dragons, including the dragon father, Atilicia, thought that David would put this plan, which had lost its ‘way of implementation’, on hold for the time being, David once again kicked open the door of the old devil, Dharonas, in the middle of the night.
This old devil who was playing and studying Nesser’s ‘antique’ had not yet had time to open his mouth to refuse, but David who was holding some astronomical observation data that he had recently collected, directly opened his mouth and said:
“I’m not looking for you to fight, help calculate an orbit, and by the way, can you help me design an acceleration device that can automatically draw magic energy? The power requirement is not high, but it needs to be able to work for a long time.”
The old devil took the information, and sure enough, it was all about that King Killer Star:
“Oh, still ready to use my soul engine?”
“I don’t have that many souls to burn, using the magical energy in my body’s blood or in the air as an energy source, any ideas?”
The old devil Dharonas was finally a little surprised:
“You are preparing for this.”
That’s right, since it is destined not to get the Mithril energy core, and the plan to climb the technology in a short period of time has become a failure, David can only use the dumbest and most intuitive method, immediately grinned:
“I’m going to launch myself into outer space.”
By the time the King Killer Planet descended on Feren, the yellow flowers will be cold, too passive.
“.” Dharonas always had the feeling that the red dragon in front of him was under pressure from the mission from the Dragon Queen and was starting to have a seizure.
Even if he was a demon he knew that space was not the Star Realm, it was not a place where any creature could survive.
“You just tell me if you can do it or not, right?” David always felt that the other party’s gaze was like looking at a white dragon.
Dharonas was too lazy to care about that much, anyway, the guy in front of him was also a soul projection, and when he turned around and ‘died’, he would always use another body to see himself again.
The old devil smacked his lips and said:
“If we just draw on the magic energy to accelerate it, there is a ready-made way.”
“Huh?” David thought to himself, “Is this old devil really a genius, only coming to Feren for less than a month and already having a ‘new invention’?
The old devil Dharonas hooked his finger at the shadows, and saw that the red-robed mage who had already been completely ‘tamed’ by Dharonas remove his tattooed scalp at his gesture, and was picked up by Dharonas and handed over to Davy:
“It will do the trick.”
“Just this?” Davey thought to himself, “Is it hard to believe you’re going to give me a tattoo too?
It turned out to be true, and the old devil patiently explained:
“You shouldn’t underestimate this kind of tattoo, it’s a kind of magic rune utilization, relatively primitive but effective enough, as far as I know, you gargoyles have a [Dragon of Sculpted Skin] promotion profession. Although I don’t know the source of these red-robed mage’s rune tattoos, and whether there is any inheritance relationship with the Nesser civilization, but just this piece in your hand, it already has the five functions of [Spell Storage], [Magic Protection], [Magic Communication], [Magic Energy Extraction] and [Teleportation], of which [Magic Energy Extraction], you can more efficiently utilize your own and even the magic energy from your surroundings, although it can’t be used on dead things, but for you it can be used on dead things, but for you, it’s a good way of using magic. Although it can’t be used on dead things, for you, isn’t it exactly what you need?”
“. Then give me one.” David immediately did not hesitate anymore.
“I’ll need a month’s time, after all, you’re a dragon, I’ll have to design it properly according to your size.”
The old devil said and held up those ‘King Killing Star’ materials in his hand:.
“And calculating it, will also take time.”
A month later, on top of the high tower of Yin Soul City, when he saw Old Devil Dallonas personally ‘sculpting the skin’ for David, he immediately drew the attention of the ‘Nethers’ underneath the city.
In the inertia of their memories it seemed that this was mostly another great attempt by the Consul of Shaddow.
Atilicia, who had arrived at the news, wanted to dissuade them, but opened her mouth but did not know how to speak. After all, in the view of this silver dragon’s old father, the existence of at least two gods on the Killing King Planet had already been made clear, even if they were not physical, they were still gods.
Who could guarantee that a soul projection would be safe and sound under the gaze of the gods?
On top of that, flying directly into space with a flesh and blood body…?
Was this something that a dragon could possibly do?
Then he remembered David’s strange ability to be a fish out of water even in the ground, perhaps his son could really do it?
David but opened his eyes, looking at the somewhat anxious look of the dragon father, immediately smiled and relieved:
“Don’t worry, the real me is still lying in the sixth level of Bato Hell, even if the Elf God really found it, so what? Could it still track down the projection to the land of the Lord of the Nine Hells?
“Besides, the leader of this plan is the Five-Colored Dragon Queen, if you can’t trust Tiamat, can’t you still trust your mother?”
[Arrogance]
Hearing David say that, Attilicia then felt that it was indeed that way.
Even as strong as the powerful God of War Tempus wouldn’t dare to start a direct war with Tiamat and the girls in Bato Hell, the Elf God System didn’t seem to be able to take David either.
Most importantly, what David played in this incident was only the role of a frontline ‘sentry’, who had seen a main general rush directly to the enemy’s hinterland command in order to hunt down a sentry?
“There’s still plenty of time, can’t we think of another way?” Attilicia could only instinctively dissuade.
David, however, shook his head:
“The original plan deviates too much from the actual situation, and with the certainty of not being able to get the Mithril Energy Nucleus, this is the most guaranteed way.”
Attilicia certainly understood this.
In David’s opinion, even if the subsequent luck exploded and those Nether Deceased Souls ‘recalled’ the manufacturing method of the Mithril Energy Nucleus, it would be impossible for them to build it in just a few decades.
This was because these magical research results were never achieved overnight, but required the support of a series of pre-research and even an entire magical industrial system.
Putting it on the Blue Planet, it was like humans suddenly ‘unearthed’ the ‘alien drawings’ of a fusion engine, it was equally difficult to get it out in a short period of time, even if the model happened to be a tokamak toroidal coil, the discovery of suitable superconducting materials and even the mass production of them would be enough to toss it around for a decades.
Atilicia, who also thought about these things, knew that David was determined to accomplish this task, patted David’s chest, sighed somewhat dejectedly, and did not try to discourage him any further.
He would like to take his place, but he didn’t have the kind of ability that David had that could be ‘realized if he thought about it for sure’ ah.
David, whose projected body was receiving the tattooed and carved skin, took out the chart of the comet trajectory of the ‘King Killer Star’ deduced by the old devil Dharonas and handed it to the other party:
“Thirty-two years, if Dharonas’s comet trajectory calculations are correct, I will meet the Killing King Star in thirty-two years.”
“That long?” Even though she had predicted it, Attilicia was still a bit emotional.
Thirty-two years, counting the time, her son Davyutos would be exactly entering his youth.
And yet, he had grown up in such a way.
“Yeah, so you might as well take Tania back to Bato Hell for now.
“On the side of the five-colored dragon queen, she has already agreed to your potion military supply deal, so if you go back to Avernus, you can just go directly to the dragon queen’s bannerman, Efilomon.
“As for my side, don’t worry too much, it’s just a matter of sleeping.”
Attilicia listened but was inexplicably a little heartbroken.
In his perception, how could it be something as simple as a nap.
With the rudimentary technology they had available to them, Davy would probably have to correct his course every few years based on the orientation of the Kingkiller Planet in order to keep from yawing through that vast void of nothingness, and probably have to endure the torment of loneliness and isolation as well.
At the thought of this, the empathetic Papa Dragon was close to tears, if only he were a little stronger.
”One can be such a waste!”
Along with the old devil Dallonas’ ‘sculpting’ work and debugging was confirmed.
“Poof!” The carvings on David’s scales gradually lit up, and his wings used the ‘Heavenly Comet Engine’, which had accumulated [Color Sins] and raised it to six, to simultaneously spew out dazzling flames, and then, in the midst of the city’s 30,000 ‘Nesser’s Undead Citizens”, he spread his wings and flew towards the sky, towards the unknown sea of stars, and towards the unknown sea. Then, under the watchful eyes of the 30,000 ‘Nethers’ in the city, he flew towards the sky, towards the unknown sea of stars.
At that moment, many people’s minds seemed to vaguely recall the image of their Nether Great Arcane Artist’s first manned spaceflight in a simple magic component.
In the crowd, the pupils of the eyes of a teenager who had come out to ‘hit the tap’ suddenly lit up, and he muttered to himself in some confusion:
“Why don’t we just use a magic ship?”
“Huh, a magic ship?”
“Why would I know such a thing?”
Meanwhile, in the stratosphere, Davy, who had built up far too much speed to be captured by a rocket out of the gravity well of the planet Torrell, was moving through Higher Teleportation toward higher altitudes, all the while telling himself over and over again that he was in the ocean.
A sea of stars is also a sea isn’t it?
