Dragon Clan starts from digging the corner of Kassel

Chapter 369: At the fated land
What does it feel like to “dive into the world”?
Caesar was a good diver. He could accurately draw underwater tracks with the tip of a dagger, and his breath-holding time broke the record of Kassel Academy.

Every holiday he would swim alone in Sardinia in the Tyrrhenian Sea - a place dotted with blue holes, where shipwrecks and volcanic reefs were intertwined. Caesar did not bring any diving equipment, but only relied on his superb diving skills and well-trained body to travel underwater, patrolling this territory that belonged to him with dolphins.

But diving deep into the world on the Sumeru throne is a completely different feeling. It is an indescribable suffocation and extraction, as if all the matter in the human body is sucked out, and the spirit and soul are constantly falling in the boundless ocean and into the corridors of the abyss.

Even the most determined warrior would find it difficult to remain rational for long in this kind of feeling. The protective suit he wore before entering the circular submersible chamber became his only straw to rely on in this situation, protecting his existence from being completely consumed by the torrent-like power.

Maybe it's ten seconds, maybe it's a thousand years.

Caesar breathed hard in this dissociation, trying his best to maintain his will until the depth of his dive exceeded a certain limit.

At that moment, it was like a golf ball slowly rolling into a hole. A strong sense of weightlessness swept through his entire soul, and he vaguely saw a majestic existence -

Giant snake.

Nothing can be more impressive than the most intuitive body shape. Every protruding spine on the giant snake is as high as Mount Everest. The majestic body rolls over mountains and crosses oceans, surrounding the entire planet in its arms. Such a magnificent posture made Caesar lose his mind and unable to look back for a long time.

No introduction was needed, as he would have understood when he saw that magnificent body - that was the largest of the Dragon Kings, the "King of the Earth and Mountains".

"The Serpent of the Courtyard, so it turns out that the myth is not an exaggeration, but a straightforward description?"

Caesar muttered to himself subconsciously and came to his senses. He could finally feel the solid ground with his feet. This feeling, which he should have been accustomed to, now even made him miss it a little.

The Word Spirit Kamaitachi was activated instinctively, and Caesar quickly brushed his left wrist with his right hand. The sky-blue light on the structural weapon flashed, and his most familiar weapon "Dictrado" fell from the space grid into his palm.

Compared to the whole world, a person's existence is so insignificant that even when the sickle weasel he summoned flew to the maximum distance and returned, he did not capture the terrible enemies he had seen in the communication. But Caesar still quickly turned around and helped up Chen Motong, who was still a little dizzy, and tried to initiate a long-distance contact with the structural weapon.

"Caesar Gattuso, Chen Motong is already in place... requesting Faus to respond."

There is a latent connection between the structural weapons called the "mind network", which can be used to search for friendly forces even without a clear communication channel.

Just a few seconds after Caesar sent out the contact request, accompanied by a slight sound of electricity, a bright spot of light suddenly appeared beside the two of them, and then quickly expanded into a blue halo flashing with bluish-white electric light.

Relying on Caesar to barely stand up, Chen Motong looked at this thing that looked like the space-time portal in Red Alert in surprise, and saw the mountains and scorching torrents flashing by on the other side. Then, a nimble shadow passed through the portal like lightning, and its feet left two flying dust trails on the lifeless land, and stopped just in front of the two.

Caesar protected Chen Motong behind him and looked into the eyes of the person who came.

The uninvited guest who appeared in front of them still had a hint of gunpowder on him, and his white Faos student uniform was covered with mottled red ash, like a trace left over from a battle with some monster.

"It's you."

The black-haired girl raised her arms, stretching her slender figure like a female leopard, and her dark golden eyes under her eyebrows were filled with a kind of courage as heavy as a mountain. She looked the two up and down, and said, "Kassel always sends the two of you to the battlefield. Is there no one better?"

"After all, this is a rare opportunity. We spent a lot of effort to get it." Caesar smiled and waved his left hand. "May I ask what actions your school is preparing to take now?"

Caesar remembered that her name was "Xia Mi" and that he had met her once in the Gray City world.

The two were not familiar with each other but not completely strangers either.

"Humph--"

Xia Mi raised her swan-like neck, glanced at Chen Motong who was leaning against Caesar, and said bluntly: "You can't even bear the pressure of a deep dive. Are you really a mixed-blood? If you want to explore this world with your half-baked skills, you will die if you are not careful."

With no other Faos classmates around, Xia Mi inadvertently showed a personality that was a little different from usual.

The usually lively and innocent female college student has transformed into a cold and aloof lady who looks sharp and mean to Chen Motong. This may surprise the boys who are familiar with her - Ling would not find it strange. It is natural for girls to say one thing and do another. Spending every day with her has made her realize the truer side of Xia Mi.

Chen Motong, who was nicknamed "Witch", also keenly felt the aggressiveness in Xia Mi's words.

She vaguely felt that... Xia Mi seemed to be in a bad mood now?

"No matter what, we will work hard to complete this mission."

Caesar straightened his back without being servile or arrogant: "Our individual strength is not worth mentioning in front of your school, but I think there should be something we can do?"

"I won't be your babysitter, so just protect yourselves as best you can." Xia Mi didn't continue to embarrass the two. She took out two Snickers-like things from her pocket and threw them to Caesar: "This is an energy bar that can treat the sequelae of deep-diving dissociation. Eat one and you can move freely in this world."

There was a look of indifference in her eyes, as if the two living people in front of her were just two common pebbles to her, and her every move was condescending.

Chen Motong felt familiar with her attitude, as if she was back in her own family, and the way those adults looked at her was... just as cold and ruthless.

"You just need to explore this world while ensuring your own survival. We will not restrict your actions."

After saying that, Xia Mi turned her head and looked at the other side of the space door. Her beautiful black hair fluttered in the air current. "Whether it's exploring the remains left by humans or fighting those immortal undead, it doesn't matter."

"What about the space station?" Caesar asked.

"Once Teacher Nanami has finished negotiating with the surviving humans over there, she should come to pick you up. There is no way for you to fly into space on Earth right now..."

She sneered for some reason, "Only Faos' space technology can free you from this desolate land. You should try your best to protect your life first, and don't die easily."

"In this world... there are many monsters that can easily take your lives!"

Leaving behind these words that sounded like both sarcasm and advice, the black-haired girl, who was wrapped in a depressing aura, turned around and walked into the space gate she came from, and stepped into the battlefield on the other side of the burning wind and cracking the earth again.

Caesar saw mountain-like giants and crazy mechanical demons on that side, both of which were venting their power to each other in the most brutal and brutal way. The other side of the world was trembling in the fight between these inhuman monsters, and even the slightest sound leaking from the edge of the battlefield was like thunder, piercing the listener's eardrums.

That is the Avici Hell which they cannot enter now.

Watching Xia Mi leave, Caesar shrugged and joked: "Maybe we came at the wrong time?"

It felt like being in the middle of a fierce team fight in a game, and suddenly being called out to answer the door, anyone would feel unhappy. After Caesar thought about it, he suddenly felt that it was completely understandable that Xia Mi was giving them a sour face, because now they had to beg others.
"Let's choose another direction." Chen Motong exerted a little force to break free from his arm and tore open the packaging of the energy bar that Xia Mi threw to them. This energy bar that can treat the sequelae of deep dive dissociation looks like a hazelnut chocolate bar that can be found everywhere. She bit off a piece, chewed it twice, and swallowed it immediately. She surprisingly found that it tasted good...

The effect was immediate. She soon felt that the feeling of mismatch between her body and soul and the long delay between each movement were alleviated a lot.

"Which side do you think is better?"

At this moment, Caesar suddenly wanted to trust his lover's intuition.

Chen Motong hesitated for a moment, but still followed the call he felt in his heart and raised his hand to point south.

"Maybe there's something worth noting over there."

...

...

"What a bunch of stupid humans!"

The barren earth was shaking and raising mountains of stone swords. Half of Xia Mi's face was covered with dark green dragon scales, and her left arm under the long sleeves of her uniform had completely transformed into sharp claws made of dragon bones.

The girl's face was full of anger, and the scarlet mechanical eye of the devil in front of her was reflected in her fiery golden pupils.

She was seen bending over and crushing the rock beneath her feet. The gravel wrapped in scarlet Pamish on the ground was blown into powder in the shock wave. Her agile figure raised a hurricane and soared into the air.

Facing the enemy who took the initiative to jump into the air, the mechanical demon that looked like a giant spider immediately gathered red energy in the barrel of the gun that arched in its chest, and locked onto her body with its radar. However, before the demon's crosshairs locked onto her, Xia Mi swept the ground with one hand to lift up a ten-foot rock wall, and her figure flashed a distance in the air like a ghost, rushing straight into the enemy's body.

As the mechanical demon's annihilation beam melted through the rock, she had already climbed onto its shoulder armor.

The Dragon King, who had mastered the structure of force and could be considered a martial arts master, pointed his left toe, and the dragon scales on his right leg sparked with fire due to the friction. His extremely powerful knee strike instantly smashed the demon's head.

——The point of force, penetrates!
Without the need for the power of "Worldly Poison", Xia Mi was still able to smash the ground under her feet to pieces in an instant relying solely on her skills.

The 15-meter-tall mechanical demon, with its upper body covered in eight layers of alloy armor, shattered into dirty fireworks amid a terrifying sound of twisting and shattering. Its hydraulic joints burst, and the circulating fluid mixed with the Pamish virus spurted out like blood, spilling onto the broken ground.

She stamped her feet, turned around and immediately rushed towards the demon's open chest.

The dragon claws with bulging veins pierced straight through the core reactor that was flashing scarlet light. Purple arcs of electricity ran through the gaps between the scales and spread all over the body, making the black-haired girl look ferocious like a ghost.

The ground collapsed with a loud bang, and the mechanical demon activated its backup energy source, choosing to self-destruct without hesitation. Feeling the danger coming in advance, Xia Mi's scales stood up, and with a roar, the ground within a hundred meters in radius collapsed into dust under the extreme force.

The flames of the reactor's self-explosion were blocked by the rock layer she erected at the critical moment. The King of the Earth angrily stomped on the demon's stubbornly standing lower body, and the metal rain that melted in the high temperature fell like stars in the rising sky.

When the battle was over, apart from the black-haired girl who was full of murderous intent, there was no longer any movable object on the land.

The dragon transformation phenomenon on her body slowly disappeared, Xia Mi's face was as gloomy as water, and her beautiful eyes and brows were filled with dark clouds that could not be dispelled.

She looked around at the scarlet ground covered with broken metal and the shattered remains of dragons. She clenched her fair right hand into a fist, and her terrifying murderous intent radiated out in all directions like a landslide:

"What the hell is wrong with this world?!"

She stood alone on the earth, roaring angrily: "The humans on earth are extinct just like that? How could they be extinct so easily? And then there are the mechanical monsters that appeared out of nowhere, mixed up with this bunch of confused dragons, and they all started attacking any living thing they saw like crazy!"

mad dragons and giants;
Demons that attack everything that moves like blind insects;
Those who are dead but cannot die and can only wander the earth forever...

No matter which one it was, Xia Mi, who had actively applied to enter this world, felt angry from the bottom of her heart!
Even if the giants and dragons who did not recognize her as the king of the earth and mountains could be excusable, Xia Mi still believed that their act of attacking her was a complete act of insubordination, and every one of them should be punished by having their internal organs eaten by a group of dragons.

After she stepped into the battlefield where dragons and demons were fighting, she killed without hesitation all the enemies who dared to attack her - their corpses had covered the entire land, without exception.

But what about those wandering dead!

This is not the "rebirth of death" that occurs when humans cross a critical blood limit and become Deadpool, but rather a forbidden power that reverses life and death and completely and thoroughly raises the dead.

Jörmungandr knew better than anyone that the power to bind souls in dead bodies and force them to move was an authority that belonged only to the gods—to her! The power of the "Goddess of Death Hela"!!
Standing on the edge of the broken cliff, she looked up at the coastline in the distance and could clearly see the bones of a giant snake sticking out of the sea.

A kind of panic that had not appeared in thousands or tens of thousands of years truly emerged from the depths of the Dragon King's soul hiding in the human body.

She stared blankly at the remains of the World-Encircling Serpent. Never before had she felt as clearly as she did now the torrent of "fate" passing by her.

"This is...my...death?"

The death god died before he was born. To her, a ghost still wandering in the world, it was like a mockery that denied everything she had.

Amid the ruins where the smoke had not yet dissipated, ferocious rage completely filled Jörmungandr's face, which was as perfect as a jade statue and had a hint of charm.

Under the shadow of her sword-like eyebrows, twisted dark golden flames danced in the depths of her pupils, burning tiny cracks in the golden irises that reflected the Sea of ​​Doom. However, the next moment, her eyes, which were originally filled with anger, suddenly condensed and turned into a cold pond, as if freezing all her emotions.

The black-haired girl Dragon King suddenly smiled sharply, seeming a little crazy.

"——If this is also fate!"

She flapped her arms violently as if spreading her wings, and the red on the ground immediately crawled towards her like a snake, slowly but firmly climbing up the king's white legs and seeping into the perfectly blended blood of dragon and human.

Then, I, Jörmungandr, will fight against everything determined by fate!

The disguise named "Xia Mi" no longer needs to exist.
