Chapter 375 The Price of Power

Yu Xia soaked in the bathroom for most of the day, channeling and stabilizing his newly gained mental strength, then quietly opened the door to let Selius and the little white iguana slip out, and then went to the living room as if nothing had happened.

The sentries were doing their respective tasks just like yesterday.

Everything is as usual, and no one wants to upset the established balance.

They knew in their hearts how rare it was to be able to stay with Yu Xia fairly.

Once this fairness is broken, none of them can be sure that they are the one Xia Xia likes the most.

In the surface peace, who of them can get a little benefit from Yu Xia depends on their ability.

Alex had gotten up an hour ago and gone to the next room to take a cold shower to sober himself up, and now he was arguing with Oger in the kitchen.

"Don't touch my pot!"

“It’s not time to add the seasoning yet!”

"There's too much water, can you please get out of here!"

Alex sounded very impatient and waved the spatula to drive Oger out of the kitchen.

Of course Oger didn't leave. He wanted to make a loving dinner for Xia Xia alone. He had finally found some edible wild fruits.

We have been eating only meat these days, so we should also let Xia Xia eat some vegetables and fruits to achieve a balanced nutrition.

When Yu Xia heard their voices, he leaned in to take a look and then went out and went to the window to look at Callejayte.

As long as they don't fight, it's fine.

At this moment, Callejet's huge body was lying in the snow. The violent wind and snow outside could not shake it at all. The snowflakes formed a small hill on its body.

Callejet noticed Yu Xia standing by the window. He first opened his eyes, flapped his wings to shake off the thick layer of snow on his body, stood up and put his head to the window.

Yu Xia put his hand against the cold window, and his mental power touched Callejet through the window.

Callejad rubbed his head against the window and winked at her.

Yu Xia couldn't communicate with him through consciousness, his mental power only allowed him to feel himself.

Canulius walked silently to Yu Xia's side.

He had already come back from swapping shifts with the Baru brothers, and there was still a hint of snow and wind on him.

Seeing him coming back, Yu Xia wiped the water stains from the melted snowflakes on his forehead with her sleeve and asked, "Canulius, have you seen any pollutants or anything outside these two days?"

Although they are on the edge of the contaminated area, they are also within the scope of the contaminated area. Even if there are no alien species, there will be pollutants.

The fact that all the people in this city have moved away shows that it has been eroded by pollutants.

But after she came out of the holy city, she didn't sense any alien aura.

Yu Xia looked at the snow outside and thought, "Is it because the weather is too cold?"

"With Big Brother here, those pollutants and alien species dare not approach." Canulius: "They are not afraid of the cold, but they are afraid of fire."

Yu Xia understood that the Long family had previously used dragon flames to burn the blood nest in the polluted area.

Therefore, when going to the contaminated area, she must bring a dragon sentinel with her.

"Xia Xia, can you feel your brother?" Canulius suddenly said.

Yu Xia paused and looked at him, "What feeling are you talking about?"

Canulius: "His self-awareness." He smiled at Yu Xia, "Once we dragon sentinels are completely transformed into dragons, it is irreversible. We lose our human consciousness, and even the guide cannot save us. This is well known, but I still think that maybe you are different, and you can feel it."

Yu Xia's eyes fell on Callejad. She did not leave, and it just stood by the window looking at her.

"I can feel Kaleyet. I know he's still here." Yu Xia's pale blue spiritual power lingered at her fingertips. "But he has no self-awareness anymore. His consciousness as a human has completely disappeared. The dragon is too powerful. This is the price he paid."

Yu Xia: "Just like us, the Golden Clan, possessing golden power also comes at a price."

Canulius's words struck a certain thought in his heart, and his eyes trembled slightly, but soon his expression returned to normal, "I forgot about that."

In the distant past, when dragons possessed human genes and intelligence, the dragon choice was given.

But he couldn't help but confirm with Yu Xia: "You can't do that too?"

Yu Xia: "If the complete dragon transformation is irreversible, then the swallowed consciousness is like a river that cannot flow back. Even if I were Big Ivy, I can't help him recover as before."

Yu Xia paused, and then continued, "Unless the transformation into a dragon is reversible, and the person becomes a human, he will naturally have a human soul again. Of course, this is just my guess. There should be no precedent in the history of the dragon race, right?"

Canulius shook his head: "No."

"I'm greedy." Canulius sighed.

Yu Xia retracted his spiritual power, put down his hand and said, "I also hope that Kaleyet can recover. At that time, I didn't even get to see him for the last time."

For so long, Yu Xia never brought up what happened between her and Callejet, nor did she mention what happened in the contaminated area of ​​the Long family.

Because it has already happened, because it is irreversible, and because there are more important things, so those strong emotions are suppressed deep in the heart.

Canulius noticed her subtle mood changes and immediately regretted bringing this up. "I'm sorry, Xia Xia. I..."

"At least Callejet is still here." Yu Xia rubbed his eyes to wipe away the soreness in his eyes. "We are still together. Isn't that good enough?"

Callejet sensed her emotions and groaned, trying to comfort her, but he didn't even dare to touch the glass in front of him.

Now he and Yu Xia are like this piece of glass, always separated from each other.

The glass looks fragile and can be easily broken, but once the glass is broken, Yu Xia will be in danger.

Canulius quickly changed the subject and pulled Yu Xia to the living room. "We have been patrolling outside these two days and have planned several routes into the contaminated area."

After dinner, the table in front of Yu Xia was cleaned up, leaving only yesterday's safe aside.

Yu Xia’s mental strength has almost recovered, and she plans to enter the contaminated area early tomorrow morning.

The Holy City must be looking for her as well. She didn't know how long she could suppress the Golden Flower. Raphael and she had a strong synaesthesia. She had to deal with the Blood Nest before she could completely break free from the shackles of the Holy City and Gold.

She also wanted to see Polya as soon as possible. She had no contact with Polya for a long time. The longer it delayed, the more uneasy she felt.

When she said this to the sentinels, they immediately turned their eyes away from the box and prepared plans to leave tomorrow.

Baru and Baron were also called back.

They first determined the route into the Blood Nest, and then Huo Lin distributed several internal communicators, detectors, and weapons.

There is no signal in the polluted area and the terminal cannot be used.

Seeing that the discussion and preparations were almost complete, Yu Xia stood up, stretched his back, and said to the sentries: "Then everyone have a good rest. We will enter the contaminated area tomorrow morning."

As she said this, she was about to walk into the room.

Before he had taken two steps, Huo Lin carried him back and made him sit down.
