Calamity Dragon, Starting with the Cultivation of Knight Families

Chapter 73 Enters the Deduction Phase, Establishing the Gate of Truth
[The temporal invasion begins; the player's consciousness descends upon the game's deduction day.]

Lying on his back in bed, Lin Ke's mind flashed with images of the torn pages of the Book of Truth. Then, with a thought, his entire body on the bed went completely limp.

On the eastern side of the swamp territory, above the magic crystal mine that was originally in the center of the swamp.

A giant dragon that had been lying prone on the ground as if in hibernation suddenly opened its eyes.

"You've come in?"

Lin Ke slowly controlled the dragon's body to stand up, shaking his head to completely dispel the dragon's drowsiness.

Looking around at the silence, and seeing the wolves guarding the surrounding forest in the distance, I felt a sense of peace.

Lin Ke's expression suddenly brightened.

"Well then, it's time to get to work according to plan."

Subsequently, with a thought from Lin Ke, the One-Horned Demon Bear and the Shadow Wind Giant Eagle, both far away in the Monster Mountain Range, felt the summons from the blood pact.

next moment.

The unicorn demon bear excitedly led its pack toward the swamp territory.

Meanwhile, on a cliff face, the Shadowwind Giant Eagle showed a hint of doubt, but still let out a loud cry, summoning its bloodline eagle flock and leading them to fly swiftly towards the location it sensed at a low altitude.

Meanwhile, thirty kilometers away in the swamp, the forest wolf sensed Lin Ke's call and suddenly stood up.

His sharp gaze swept over the two rank-1 flying beasts beside him.

With a low wolf howl, the two newly advanced birds of prey exchanged a bewildered glance.

However, this confusion was quickly dispelled.

The next moment, the two newly ascended flying birds soared into the sky.

One bird flew east, and another flew west.

As 'messengers', these two birds placed next to the forest wolves are indeed messengers.

As the birds flew across the wastelands to the east and west and disappeared into the distance, the advanced wasteland monster lords in the areas they passed through were all awakened.

At the same time, as if they knew something, they immediately set off towards the swamp territory with feelings of fear or trepidation.

Of course, these newly ascended magical beasts did not bring their own races with them.

Because from the very beginning, the Lord of Dragons had two sets of commands.

A set of instructions, when transmitted by the avian messenger in short, rapid voices, signals that a lord-level magical beast should go alone to the territory of the Dragon Lord to await orders.

The second set of instructions is that when the avian messengers transmit the signal with a long, sharp cry, it is the signal for all the magical beasts to gather on a large scale.

Knowing the power of the dragon and having personally experienced the oppressive aura of its high-ranking status, these newly ascended magical beasts dared not forget the command signal.

Therefore, after these two birds flew east and west, their cries echoing across countless wastelands and forests, all the advanced magical beasts of the wastelands immediately took to the skies, either running or flying.

At the same time, Lin Ke, the Dragon Lord who had summoned all the rank-up magical beasts, took to the air with a handful of unpolished mid-rank magic crystals in each of his two dragon claws.

The dragon soared into the sky and began heading towards the side of the swamp territory facing the Monster Mountain Range.

On a small hill about fifty kilometers away from the swamp territory, the Rock Steel Dragon finally landed.

This is the gathering place agreed upon by the demon wolf and all its subordinates who have reached the next level of magical beasts.

The hill isn't very high, but it's still over a hundred meters high.

When they arrived, the Timberwolves were already there with their pack, waiting for them.

Upon seeing the Rock Steel Dragon land on the hill, the forest wolves immediately howled and led all the wolves to lie prostrate on the ground.

The Timberwolves looked on with admiration, while Linko gave the dragon's head a slight nod in satisfaction.

Then, Lin Ke looked up at the sky.

At this moment, some birds of higher rank flew in from the sky, led by a fifth-rank Shadowwind Giant Eagle and its more than thirty offspring.

Meanwhile, from the surrounding sky and forest, one can also see small black bird shadows flying in from different directions.

Lin Ke's eyes showed a hint of satisfaction.

After the Shadowwind Giant Eagle arrived, it called out "My Lord" and dared not say another word.

After all, the Rock Steel Dragon's majesty was too strong. It simply nodded without uttering a sound, so the Shadowwind Eagle knew it wasn't the right time yet.

In short, the perceptive giant eagle immediately led its flock to the ground on one side, lying prostrate and not daring to utter a sound.

Finally, about half a day passed.

Finally, all the rank-up magical beasts that were supposed to come arrived.

In just a moment, a large army of advanced magical beasts gathered at the foot of this hill.

A total of 223 advanced magical beasts.

Among them, there is one Tier 5, one Tier 4, twenty-eight Tier 3, and the rest are Tier 2 and Tier 1. Such a force is already quite strong. If they were to unleash a monster tide, it would be many times larger than the small monster tide that the Silver Lion Duchy experienced decades ago.

However, Lin Ke summoned them not to start a beast tide.

Otherwise, it wouldn't just be summoning lord-level monsters from all over the wasteland.

Work!

Yes, Linco gathered these guys to make them work.

Right there on this hill, Lin Ke activated the earth-attribute magical beasts among the rank-up magical beasts, causing them to carve out an underground space of at least three million cubic meters a hundred meters below the hill.

Earth-attribute magical beasts unleash their magic to create underground spaces, regardless of the cost.

Birds and other attribute-based rank-1 magical beasts were responsible for discreetly paving a path to the swamp territory, while also excavating the mid-level magic crystal mines hidden in the forest.

Lin Ke intends to use these mid-level magic crystal mines to allow all magical beasts to open up underground spaces without regard to losses.

Of course, Lin Ke himself was not idle either.

After all, he was the chief engineer in charge of opening up this underground space.

Rock Steel Giant Dragon is responsible for the supporting columns of the rock steel underground space, and also for solidifying the outer walls of the underground space.

It is essential to ensure the structural stability of the entire underground space, while also ensuring that the entire underground space meets one's own expectations.

Thus, regardless of losses, and with the participation of the forestry science team itself.

About a hundred days into the game.

Finally, this massive underground space is complete!
Three million cubic meters, definitely more or less.

One by one, massive steel-reinforced rock pillars support the stability of the entire underground space.

The surroundings were dark, but by simply fixing the excavated 'fire attribute' magic crystals to the dome of this underground space, the entire underground space quickly became bright.

"This is extraordinary power!"

Such a large space was completed so easily in just three months!

The process wasn't smooth at first, but with Lin Ke, the former "Civil Engineering Dog," keeping an eye on things, and with the assistance of a fifth-order extraordinary power, everything eventually came to a satisfactory conclusion.

Lin Ke soared through the underground space, constantly looking down, feeling extremely satisfied.

Finally, he arrived in front of all the listless, mostly dejected, and lifeless-looking rank-up magical beasts.

At this moment, looking at the exhausted and puzzled Shadowwind Giant Eagle and even the Unicorn Demon Bear, Lin Ke spoke.

"Your efforts will eventually pay off!"

"Even though you don't understand now, it doesn't matter."

"Now, I need all of you to stay here."

"Until I return, no one is allowed to leave this place! Also, the giant eagle has ordered its offspring to closely monitor the sky and the ground. I will not allow any being, whether magical beast or human, to approach this underground space."

"Big Bear, you're in charge of overseeing all the magical beasts here, understand?!"

The Shadowwind Giant Eagle and the Unicorn Demon Bear looked at each other, but immediately responded loudly!
"Yes, my lord!"

Seeing their puzzled yet obedient expressions, Lin Ke didn't want to say anything more.

He then turned to face the rock wall behind the underground space.

Then, in the next moment, familiar information flashed through Lin Ke's mind.

[Player confirms the establishment of the Gate of Truth at the designated location!]

[The Gate of Truth is being established; the target portal is randomly identified as an abandoned or remnant area, either shallow underground or above ground.]

The next moment, under the watchful eyes of Lin Ke and the puzzled gazes of more than two hundred advanced magical beasts,

Suddenly, a ring of light appeared on the rock wall of the underground space in front of them.

The light was initially blurry, then became incredibly bright.

Then a seven-colored light appeared, and its seven-colored radiance burst forth in an instant, illuminating the entire underground space.

Instantly, a ring-shaped vortex portal, shimmering with seven-colored light, appeared on the rock wall to the north of this underground space, in front of the rock-steel dragon.

The entire vortex portal is about 25 meters in diameter and is incredibly dazzling.

The low-level magical beasts all stared blankly at the seven-colored portal, even the one-horned demonic bear looked confused.

But the Shadowwind Giant Eagle opened its beak wide, its gaze momentarily blank.

The power of space?

A portal to space?
Is this something a Tier 5 sub-dragon could create?
Furthermore, is the Lord a rare space-type dragon? No way.
What exactly is the situation with our master?
The Shadowwind Giant Eagle didn't know, didn't understand, but at this moment it had developed an even greater sense of fear and awe towards Lin Ke, the Rock Steel Dragon.
