Gao Wen didn't know what to do for a while.
He stood quietly in front of the incubator, looked at the baby dragon in the transparent capsule, looked at the unsightly cub in his eyes, and even some ugly cubs, watched the little guy who had just visited the world started to pat its childish Wings, began to try to observe the surrounding environment-the dragon is really a powerful creature, so that their cubs can walk with their own power just after hatching, they can open their eyes to observe the world, and even...maybe already Have some magical power.
Gao Wen saw that the flow of light on the edge of the dragon's wings appeared like a rune.
But these outstanding talents do not make much sense in Talund.
"Is he observing us?" Amber asked aside curiously, "Hey, should this little guy treat us as parents, I heard..."
"No," Noleta shook her head. "The hatching sac is made of special materials. From the inside, the outside scene is filtered and processed, which can ensure that the dragon does not use the mechanical devices or other activities here. Things as their parents."
"We should leave," Melita stepped back half a step, "This little guy's parents may already be on the landing platform, and will come to claim him soon, this is an important occasion, we don't want to be here disturb."
A group of people quickly left the "Incubation Corridor", they walked into a softly lit passage, and people or dragons were still not visible in this extremely wide passage, only occasionally sliding along the wall or on the ground The fast-moving mechanical device broke the silence around. Everything is as Melita said: This is a highly automated factory. Almost everything here has been handed over to the machines controlled by Omega, and these machines... are the dragons of Tallond." starting point".
After walking quietly for a few minutes, Amber finally couldn't help breaking the silence: "The machines just scratched the skin behind the neck of the dragon, as if something was stuffed in it... what is that?"
"It is a synergistic-implanted composite device that can slowly affect and reshape the nervous system of the brain. The basis for the survival of newborn dragons in Tallond society is the starting point for everything. It is also the first official implantation for them. The foundation laid by the body," Melita said slowly, "The composite device will guide and strengthen the nervous system of the young dragon a little bit, until the latter can withstand the pressure caused by the implant and the "parallax signal interaction", which is probably It takes about ten years, and when that thing grows into a'slot' at the base of the dragon's skull, the dragon can accept the first official implant in their life."
Amber retells these difficult literal translation phrases that she heard strangely: "The first... formal implant?"
"Resonance core, an intracranial plug, with the life of the dragon," Melita said. "Only through it can we establish a connection with Omega directly. At the same time, it also has various functions such as identity recognition, location positioning, and individual property preservation. It can be said that only after the implantation of the core of the resonance core can a baby dragon truly become a member of Tallonde and survive in this prosperous and huge and terrible country."
"Are all dragons implanted in that thing?" Amber opened his eyes slightly. "Do you have any?"
"Of course, I have..." Melita smiled immediately, reaching for her head, but then dropped her hand, "Ah, well, not in this head, but I do have a resonance core. "
"Omega controls everything on this continent, and the resonance core is the end extension of Omega, which is the basis for the dragon's survival in Tallonde," Noreta continued, "even away from Tal In the case of Lund, Omega can also determine the location and health status of the dragon race through the resonance core, and maintain the contact between the far walker and the local. You can imagine how important this thing is for us."
"Is there—I mean what happens if the resonance core of a dragon clan is damaged or the connection with Omega is interrupted for other reasons?" Gao Wen couldn't help but ask curiously, "Did this happen? "Will any dragon clan in Tallond leave Omega for one reason or another?"
"...We simply can't imagine what it was like," Melita thought about it, and shook her head weirdly. "As far as I know, there has never been a Dragon Race leaving Omega. Of course, what you call'damage' It may indeed happen, but Omega will alert the first time and send an emergency rescue team to repair the connection of the "accidentally detached" and return him to Omega's network. If in Tallond , This process will not exceed twelve hours."
Speaking of which, Melita seemed to remember something suddenly, and added a few words with a smile: "But I have seen some older thrillers and repertoire, which mentioned that the unlucky protagonist damaged his resonance because of an accident. The core, and for some reason or so, Omega did not find him as an "accidentally detached person", so the dragon in question became the "transparent dragon" of Tarlonde society, no longer has an identity, and his property was cleared. I can’t leave, I can’t even open the door of my house, I can’t even give him a walk on the street, even the cleaning machine... Hey, it’s really scary, now it’s all my psychological shadow...”
"You saw too many weird old stories when you were a kid," Noreta couldn't help but mutter. "So you are just getting old now."
"That has nothing to do with this!" Melita immediately glared, "You just envy my classic temperament!"
Gao Wen: "..."
He wasn’t actually listening to the squabbling interaction between Melita and his friends, because what he saw and heard here had caused him to think deeply.
This is the intention of the dragon **** Enya insisting on visiting Tarlonde first? This is what the **** wants to see himself?
In thought, Gao Wen exhaled softly, then he shook his head, and saw that the softly lit and unusually wide passage seemed to have come to an end. There was a trapezoidal gate in front standing at the end of the corridor.
This tour of the hatchery factory seemed to be coming to an end, but before leaving, he couldn't help but ask Melita: "Yes, are you here too... hatched?"
"I'm not. I hatched it in an incubation plant in another city nearby," Melita shook her head and pointed at Noretar again, "but she was hatched here."
"Are you a member of the'Upper Tallond'?" Gao Wen asked again. "Are your parents also members of the jury or Mithril Treasure?"
Merita shrugged, and said Gao Wen’s unexpected answer: “I have no parents, and no jury employees like Noretta and I have no parents—the upper Tallond also has many different parts. Among them, the members of the jury, the elders’ home and the temple group are all special. Noreta and I are not ordinary dragon eggs “claimed” by parents, but the jury directly “made” from the factory, and the genetic factors come from certain Laboratories of large life groups. Such large companies specialize in serving the upper Tallond.
Then she paused and continued: "But Noretta and I don't know which laboratory we came from-this part of the information is confidential, only the Speaker and Omega have access and permissions. Of course, we also Don't care about this."
Amber's eyes were wide, and Melita and Noreita looked up and down inexplicably. It took a long time for her to say: "This... is a little beyond my imagination..."
Gao Wen glanced at Amber. In fact, he wanted to say that this half-elf was not qualified to speak of others. Her own birth method was even more bizarre than these "Talrond Dragons", but she still didn't say anything. Export.
He saw here that what he heard was too unexpected, and there were so many things worth thinking about that the rumors became boring.
After a few minutes, they left the incubator and came to the landing area outside the factory.
Noreta took Amber and Veronica to the nearby platform, and Melita turned into a dragon in front of Gao Wen and stood at the center of the landing platform. Looking at the vast night outside the platform and the dense city lights at the foot of the mountain like light-cast rivers, Gao Wen couldn't help but looked up and asked, "Where are we going next?"
"I'll take you to Xiacheng District-I often go to one block, and the environment there is pretty good," Melita said as she lowered her wings. "Come on, it's a little deep at night. We were delayed in the incubation plant. It's a bit long."
Gao Wen walked towards Melita, but before stepping on the Dragon Wing, he took out his close mechanical watch and glanced at the time above. Then he raised his head and looked at the night sky full of stars.
This little movement made Melita curious: "Why? Do you have any other arrangements?"
"No, it's nothing, just a glance at the time," Gao Wen put away the mechanical watch and shook his head with a smile. "It's not just amber here, even my time is a bit confusing."
Melita did not have any doubts, but waited until Gao Wenan walked steadily on her back, and then slowly walked two steps outside the platform, and then flew to the sky by the magical fluctuations-and not far from her On another platform, the elegant white dragon Noreta also flew into the night sky.
The city lights of Tallonde glanced backwards in Gavin's field of vision.
It was a short flight. From the tower of the incubator factory to the block Melita said, it only required a dive and glide to slow down. Gao Wen soon saw a block zoom in quickly in his field of view, many Towering buildings with a completely different style from the human world are coming.
Those are extremely strong and exquisite buildings. If they are placed on the mainland of Loren, perhaps the king and the duke cannot live in such houses. Exquisite dwellings are lined up one after another in this block. The lights flash in the streets. The advertisements and artistic short films presented by the holographic projection fill the eyes. It looks as if it is the most prosperous and advanced.
However, Gao Wen already knows that this is actually "lower Tarlond".
It is spacious for people and narrow for dragons.
There is no special landing platform in the block. Melita and Noreita landed directly on an open space that looks like a small square. On the streets near the open space, there are many people walking around.
When the dragon landed, Gao Wen felt a slight shock at his feet, and then he exhaled, preparing to go to the ground, but at the moment he stepped on, he suddenly felt something.
Under some kind of "intuition", he subconsciously looked up.
Numerous shadows like black chains floated in his sight!
Nearly conditioned reflexes, Gao Wen immediately looked up at the top of his head, but he did not see the huge "disorganized dragon" again as expected-he only saw the polar night sky, and the artificial lights in the urban area were in his The edge of the field of vision glowed with light pollution.
The indescribable "dragon of chaos" did not appear, but countless black translucent chains actually floated in the air, floating in the streets and alleys of Xiacheng District.
Gao Wen saw much more “black chains” here than the upper Tarlond, they connected the bustling pedestrians around the square, connected the dragons of the lower Tarlond, and the other end Straight to the sky, to the invisible chaotic dragon...
...
"My lord, the guests have entered the lower Tarlond," Heragoll said with a hand down. "I am visiting the streets of Xiacheng District with the two young dragons named Melita and Noreita."
There was no response from the holy seat shrouded in light, and the whole hall of the temple seemed quiet.
Dragon God Enya was sitting quietly on the gorgeous chair, seeming to stare into the distance with some fascination.
"My Lord?" Heragore raised his head curiously, and could not help but whisper.
The **** on the Holy See finally turned his gaze and said lightly, "I know."
"My Lord," Heragore hesitated and said, "Is it wrong? Lower Tallond... is more messy and may not be suitable for showing to guests. In comparison, the upper zone The view is better, and it is enough for guests to visit."
"It was my suggestion," the Dragon God said lightly. "The arrangement I asked Andar to make our guests see a complete Tallond."
It seemed as though Helagor wanted to ask something, but in the end he lowered his head: "...Yes, I understand."
...
A kind-looking middle-aged "person" talked with Melita, while a little girl about five or six years old who looked scared of life and put it in the eyes of humans was hiding aside, looking around with some curious eyes. Gao Wen and Amber-Veronica tried to approach the little girl with a kind and warm smile, but was cleverly avoided by the other party.
The "Princess Saint" who always used her smile to create a close relationship looks a bit frustrated, but soon returned to normal and returned to Gao Wen.
The kind middle-aged "person" is a resident of Xiacheng District, he runs a "scale polishing boutique" on the corner of the street, and the little girl who seems to be afraid of life is his daughter, who just turned 100 this year. Twenty years old.
Still a young dragon.
The father and daughter are one of Merita’s few friends in Xiacheng District, and Noreta is also familiar with them. The "business" they run is one of the few "work industries" in Talllund. It is also an industry with great dragon characteristics, but all this is not important to Gao Wen.
Importantly, Gao Wen can clearly see a chain extending from the top of the middle-aged "person" all the way to the sky, and even the little girl who seems to be only five or six years old is also connected with a chain There is no chain.
