They won the Holy Grail War, but this turned out to be the Virtual Tree Universe.

Chapter 218 The Dragon King Returns (Script)? Yin Yue, you've got the wrong script!

Jing Yuan told Dan Lei to pick anyone he wanted, and Dan Lei, without hesitation, pointed directly at Dan Heng and said...
"I'll take him. He's finally transformed, it would be a shame not to fight the Great Lord of Annihilation."

Dan Heng wanted to curse at Dan Lei's words, saying, "What do you mean it's a pity not to fight the Annihilation Lord after transforming? I never want to encounter the Annihilation Lord again in my life, okay?"

Of course, Dan Heng didn't say this aloud, because he knew that if Dan Lei did, he would definitely use other words to belittle him.

And he wasn't wrong. If Danheng really voiced his thoughts, Danlei would definitely scoff and say that their train crew was going to face Nanook.

Even if you don't know what happens next, you can guess that your connection with the Great Lords of Annihilation must be quite deep.

However, Dan Heng's silence didn't mean no one was teasing him; Ren directly stated...

"The new Dragon Lord of Luofu, did you choose Yinyue to help him wash away his sins?"

I suggest you stop wasting your time. There are five people involved, but three of them will come at a cost.

No matter how many achievements he made, he could not wash away his sins.

The only way to atone for one's sins is to truly die.

Upon hearing this, March 7th immediately objected, putting her hands on her hips to defend her friend.
"Why do you talk so strangely!"
What exactly did Danheng do to you? Why do people keep saying he's sinful?

Also, his name is Dan Heng, not Yin Yue.

On March 7th, when Blade was accused, the latter, without the demonic possession, was able to restrain his urge to kill, so he turned his head away, too lazy to answer.

After all, the past of the Five Heroes of the Clouds is too complicated to be explained in just a few words.

Therefore, Dan Lei spoke up here.
"In March, stop dwelling on their past. There are many things you need to ask Danheng himself."

I can now sense that Huanlong, who escaped from the Gongzao Si Cave Heaven, seems to have gone in circles and headed towards the Danding Si.

I suspect that Huanlong's target is Jianmu and Danheng. We must return to our clan to organize a defense.

Huanlong's ability to regenerate the Jianmu tree must be part of a conspiracy; we must stop her.

In naval warfare, the two of us have a natural advantage; no one can replace you.

Since Dan Lei had said so, Dan Heng didn't hesitate and nodded.
"Understood. I will fulfill the responsibilities of a righteous person, but afterwards, you must let me leave."

Dan Lei did not directly agree to Dan Heng's request, but instead said...
"You can leave if you want, but there are some things you have to give to Bailu."

There's no room for negotiation on this point; after all, it's not your personal property.

Of course, I'm referring to technique here. As for power, you can keep it for now; I'll take it back when you die in the future.

Dan Lei emphasized technique in particular in order to reduce Dan Heng's resistance.

Moreover, Dan Lei dared not strip Dan Heng of his Dragon Lord power, as this power would play a crucial role in the Star Train's pioneering journey. Once stripped away, the resulting chain reaction would be completely unpredictable to Dan Lei.

Sure enough, after Dan Lei emphasized that he only cared about technique and not strength, Dan Heng became much more agreeable.

Because he also knew that Dan Lei had become a Dragon Lord, yet he didn't know any of the secrets of dragon transformation and couldn't even reseal the roots of the Jianmu tree. This was all his own fault.

Since it was his own problem, Danheng, with his sense of responsibility, still wanted to solve it.

Moreover, Dan Lei only needs technique, not strength, and he is a Dragon Lord who has risen to the position of Dragon Lord through his own strength, equivalent to a founding emperor.

So, Dan Heng nodded.
"No problem, as long as it's about technique, I'll recount everything I know."

Seeing that Dan Heng had agreed, Dan Lei beamed with joy and said...

"That's good. Let's go, let's go and see Huanlong again."

Dan Lei had just finished speaking when Xing suddenly interrupted him.
"Wait a minute, Danlei, Danheng is an inherent asset of the train crew."

To ensure the safety of our assets, we must also follow suit.

Upon hearing Xing's words, March 7th immediately echoed her sentiments.
"Yes, yes, yes, we have to follow suit."

You love bullying Danheng the most. We have to stick with him so that Danheng won't be bullied by you and end up squatting in the corner of the room wiping away his tears.

The phrase "March 7th" clearly portrays Danheng as one of those lowly sons-in-law in novels who can only silently endure the ridicule from the woman's family.

However, what Danheng is now holding is not the script of welcoming the Dragon King back after the three-year period has ended.

But it's not exactly a story of a submissive wife being bullied.

However, having the train crew follow along wouldn't be a bad idea; it would be a way of staying true to the original story.

So Danlei said with a wicked smile
"Okay, as long as you can hold your breath underwater for dozens of hours and are also capable of fighting."

Upon hearing Dan Lei's words, March 7th immediately deflated.

Holding their breath underwater for dozens of hours is not difficult for them. Even the weakest of them, March 7th, is only the weakest in the Star Train crew. In ordinary spacefaring civilizations, they would be considered top-tier powerhouses.

However, underwater combat is a difficult task. Without specialized training, March 7th would probably be better suited as a melee archer underwater, and one who wouldn't be able to maintain his balance.

Fortunately, Dan Heng couldn't stand by and watch Dan Lei bully "outsiders," and directly exposed him.
"Don't worry about March. The Vidyadhara clan has a secret technique that allows people to move freely underwater, and I also know this technique."

Upon hearing this, March 7th angrily waved his fist at Danlei, indicating that if he teased him again, he would give him two punches.

Seeing that Dan Heng had exposed him, Dan Lei decisively ignored the fierce yet adorable threat from March 7th and said to Jing Yuan...
"General, please give me another order that can mobilize the military officers of the Ten Kings and the Jurchens."

Now that the threat of the Iron Tomb has been eliminated, all the Golden Men can be put to use.

There's no need to worry about Suiyang. Huanlong will definitely devour all the Suiyang she brought if she wants to recover her strength quickly.

Moreover, when an ordinary swan appears before me, it's like someone delivering vegetables.

Dan Lei's request was reasonable. Jing Yuan used his jade tablet to draft and sign the transfer order on the spot, then sent it to the Ten Kings' Division, and then said...
"I issued a mobilization order to the Ten Kings Division, which can mobilize a quarter of their armed forces."

"The Ten Kings' Division is responsible for guarding serious criminals, so we can only give you a quarter of their armed forces."

Dan Lei estimated that a quarter of the power of the Ten Kings would be enough.

Moreover, with my connections, I'm sure I can get the two sisters, Han Ya and Xue Yi, to come.

After all, Xueyi no longer needs to be a carrier pigeon.

Dan Lei immediately released 50,000 magical puppets and granted Jing Yuan level-two command authority.

Then he summoned the Abundant Black Deer, cast a gigantification spell on it, and transformed it into a ten-meter-tall giant deer, saying...
"Alright, now the Starry Sky Train crew will follow me."

Everyone, get on the deer.

After saying that, Danlei was the first to jump onto the back of the Abundant Black Deer.

Seeing this, the Starry Sky Train crew naturally followed suit and jumped on as well.

After finishing, Dan Lei directly attached a flying rune to the Abundant Black Deer and then taught it how to fly through a contract.

The next second, the Abundant Mystic Deer, like a celestial deer, rose into the air on golden abundant destiny energy and headed straight for the Wave Moon Ancient Sea.

Jing Yuan looked at the 50,000 magical puppets that Dan Lei had casually released, and the Bountiful Xuan Deer that had soared into the sky, and smiled with admiration.

"Looks like it's time for me to retire."

After expressing his feelings, Jing Yuan looked at Fu Xuan, who had a defeated expression, and said with a smile.

"Fu Qing, don't be discouraged. I never said that the general's position would go to Dan Lei. His heart isn't in Luofu, and he's too deeply involved with outside forces."

However, with him as an asset, I can be completely at ease with the next general, as long as he knows how to be flexible.

Upon hearing this, Fu Xuan immediately became furious and said...
"General, are you accusing me of being inflexible?"

Jing Yuan did not answer Fu Xuan's question at all, but instead gave an order.

"Fu Qing, I'm entrusting these 50,000 puppets to your command."

I will have Yanqing lead three squadrons of Cloud Cavalry to support you.

"If you want to be a general, first let me see your ability to command the younger generation."

After speaking, Jing Yuan turned to Jing Liu and Ren, and smiled.
"You two come with me. I need to plan a surprise attack on the antimatter legion."

I've been feeling frustrated for days, and I need to vent my frustrations. At the very least, I need to find a powerful ruler to train with.

That sneak attack just now doesn't count.

Ren remained silent about Jingyuan's arrangements. His current task was to follow orders and kill people, as was originally part of the script given to him by Elio.

As for Jingliu, she stated frankly...

"Jingyuan, your skills have deteriorated too much over the past few hundred years. I can tell without even hitting you."

Your skills are nowhere near as sharp as when you captured me.

Jingyuan could only laugh off Jingliu's assessment, since for the past few centuries, his main task on the battlefield had been to plan strategies and command troops.

Moreover, since the Third Plenty War, the Battle of Aijihazo was the biggest battle that Luofu had ever experienced; normally, they only bullied small hunting groups of Buliren.

Therefore, Jing Yuan did indeed lead from the front much less often, and his own combat strength inevitably declined.

In contrast, Jingliu has improved his strength even more in the hundreds of years since he left Luofu. As Jingyuan's swordsmanship instructor, he naturally saw the decline in Jingyuan's own strength at a glance.

However, Jingliu didn't say much. After this battle, he would have to find a way to go crazy again, otherwise he wouldn't be able to meet the marshal.

Therefore, attacking the general and giving Jingyuan another swordsmanship lesson seems like a good option.

Jing Yuan was unaware that an assassination attempt against him was brewing.

To be precise, even if he knew, there was nothing he could do.

Jingliu is the type to stir up trouble, and no one can stop him.

At this moment, the camera switched to Dan Lei's side.

The speed of the Abundant Black Deer was much faster than expected, and it was protected by the Abundant Destiny, with its back belonging to the Calm Belt.

So, a dozen minutes later, Dan Lei and the others returned to the Bo Yue Ancient Sea.

After landing at the Xianlong Grand Temple, Dan Lei directly addressed Dan Heng.

"I sensed that Huanlong has stopped at the Dan Ding Division."

It seems we need the Ten Kings' forces to assemble at the Bo Yue Ancient Sea to coordinate with Fu Xuan's forces in a counterattack against the Dan Ding Division from the rear.

So, Danheng, let's open the sea.

You should still remember this secret technique, right? In the clan records, Lord Yinyue's opening of the sea was described in great detail.

However, don't venture too deep into the Scaled Abyss Realm; just open one-third of it, enough to allow the main force of the Ten Kings to emerge quickly.

Dan Lei's excuse for asking Dan Heng to open the sea to facilitate the gathering of troops by the Ten Kings Division was just that—an excuse. His main purpose was to have the heroic spirit clones steal the fruit from Jianmu.

Dan Lei was very clear that Dan Heng was not Dan Feng. With his control, he couldn't open one-third of the Sea Opening Realm. He would definitely open the entire Lin Yuan Realm in one go.

Sure enough, Dan Heng said with an uncertain expression.

"Dan Lei, I do remember this secret technique."

But I'm not sure if I can still use it. In short, I need time to develop it, and I can only say I'll try.

Seeing this, Dan Lei naturally wouldn't press the matter, but instead smiled and said...
“We still have time. You can take your time to think it over. Just then, the guards on patrol are here. I'll go and greet them first.”

Just as Dan Lei and Dan Heng were talking, and San Yueqi was pointing at the statues of the past dragon lords in the center of the Xianlong Dayu Hall and asking if they were the statues of the Dan Heng brothers, a team of five guardians of the pearl suddenly emerged from the water and shouted at San Yueqi and the others.

"Who are you? This is the Secret Realm of Wisdom, and unauthorized personnel are not allowed here... Ah! Lord Dragon Lord! Xiaoqian, the vice captain of the Seventh Team of Deep Dragon, greets Lord Dragon Lord."

Dan Lei nodded in satisfaction when he saw that the guardians of the pearl appeared just a few minutes after they landed.

This is how a guardian of the pearl should behave. In the game, the Xianlong Dayu Palace is full of enemies, and the Lin Yuan Realm is full of monsters.

Every single one of the guards responsible for protecting the pearl who survived the battle could be sent directly to prison for dereliction of duty.

So Danlei praised Xiaoqian.
"Very good, this is the patrol efficiency that the guardians of the pearl should have."

Upon hearing this, Xiaoqian happily clasped her hands in a fist salute.

"Your Excellency Dragon Lord is too kind. This is merely the basic work of the pearl protectors."

Dan Lei nodded, not discussing the issue further, but instead gave the order.

"You've come at the right time. Issue my Dragon Lord's decree: all those on leave who are guarding the pearl, assemble."

The reason for Jianmu's rebirth has been found: the Dragon Master colluded with the Great Lord of Annihilation, Huanlong and Xingxiao, to put the star core into the Jianmu Mystic Root Cave Heaven.

Xingxiao has now been temporarily driven out of Luofu by me and General Jingyuan.

After Huanlong was severely injured, he hid in the Dan Ding Division, so I need to organize forces to launch a counterattack.

By the way, send someone to tell the Dragon Masters in the council hall that the plan of the Great Lord of Annihilation to invade Luofu has been thwarted. Let them think carefully about how many spies in their clans are still involved in this matter. After I kill Huanlong, I will bring her soul to confront them.

Also, I will be opening the seas next, so my fellow countrymen patrolling in Lin Yuan Realm shouldn't panic.

After speaking, Dan Lei used his jade tablet to issue the Dragon Lord's Decree, which bore his own imprint.

Xiaoqian trembled all over as she was shocked by this series of truths, but then she thought, how could her own Dragon Lord actually stand up to the Great Lord of Annihilation?
He truly deserves to be called the only genius in the history of the Vidyadhara clan to awaken his dragon body and achieve the position of Dragon Lord without relying on the miraculous method of dragon transformation.

Xiaoqian bowed deeply to show that she obeyed the order, and then led her subordinates into the water.

After Dan Lei and Xiao Qian finished communicating, Dan Heng was almost ready. So, after greeting everyone, he stood in front of the Dragon Lord statue.

Then, Dan Lei felt a primal and powerful force emanating from the Bo Yue Ancient Sea, a force that made his body leap with joy.

However, this power was resonating with the Dragon Lord's power within Dan Heng.

As the non-existent background music "Tearing - Liberation of Form..." rang in Dan Lei's mind, Dan Heng, after transforming, finally displayed a trace of the might of the Vidyadhara Dragon Lord.

　From the main storyline and side quests, we can see that Elio gives each Star Core Hunter a separate script.

　　Moreover, they didn't know the content of each other's scripts at the beginning.

　　However, it seems the Star Core Hunters don't prohibit exchanging scripts during missions. (Silver Wolf and Kafka exchange scripts at the very beginning of the story.)
　　But most people wouldn't do that. (In the Pinocchio storyline, Firefly clearly didn't know Silver Wolf had the script.)
