Terrible news! My deskmate's first chapter is gone!

Two minutes.

It took a full two minutes after the two forbidden dragon-related items, the Rising Dragon and the Dragon Summoning Flute, were inlaid into the groove.

There was no sound at all.

She was as quiet as a drunken, impotent husband; no matter how much he shouted or screamed, she remained unmoved.

Chen Xi was so focused that he could clearly feel every beat of his heart every second during those two short minutes.

"The boss is..."

Chen Xi interrupted Yang Wei's spellcasting with a raised hand. He knew what the other party wanted to ask, but he didn't know the answer either.

If we were to return to the surface of the Jelly Sea like this, it would be equivalent to directly losing two forbidden dragon artifacts.

These are two items ranked in the top ten of the forbidden items. Although they are at the bottom, they are still forbidden items and therefore of great significance!

Moreover, this loss also affects the author.

Without these two forbidden items, the author's role would be greatly diminished.

Chen Xi could accept the loss of the Rising Dragon and the Dragon Summoning Flute, since he would eventually have to go back, and the loss was inevitable.

Even with two forbidden dragon artifacts, Chen Xi couldn't withstand the sinking force of the Jelly Sea; at least not in his current state.

But Chen Xi couldn't accept this kind of fruitless return; it was tantamount to outright robbery! Not only had he not become stronger, but he had actually weakened.

Fortunately, there was no danger around Sanlonghui.

Therefore, Chen Xi chose to wait.

He'd wait even if it meant a month!

Fortunately, the actual situation didn't take as long as Chen Xi had imagined.

Half a minute later, with a "gurgle," a bubble floated out from the groove where the Dragon Summoning Flute was inlaid.

Almost simultaneously, a "gurgling" sound was also heard from the groove where the dragon was inlaid, and a bubble floated out.

It looks like fish in the water blowing bubbles.

"Coo! Coo! Coo! Coo! Coo!"

A series of uniform bubbles emerged from the double tanks, quietly gathering into a giant bubble with a diameter of two meters.

A faint light slowly seeped out from the bubble, its color gradually changing from pale yellow to bright yellow to pale gold to gold, finally settling into a solid golden sphere.

It floated half-suspended in front of Chen Xi and his companion, like a mysterious sky lantern suspended in mid-air, its hazy light exuding an indescribable eeriness.

"What? A light bulb?"

Yang Wei grumbled.

As soon as he finished speaking, the golden sphere flashed as if it had been activated.

"Hello, great 'contributor'."

"I am here to reward your contributions. I have no name, nor am I a living being; I am a kind of program-like entity."

"No matter who you are, I will strictly follow the standard procedures."

After a brief silence.

"Boss!" Yang Wei tugged at Chen Xi's sleeve excitedly, "You were right! There's a reward! You won the bet!"

"What a prophetic statement!"

"But this thing is amazing! I can understand what it's saying, even though it's not human language."

Chen Xi nodded without saying anything.

Sound travels in a wide area and is not directed at him specifically, so it's not surprising that Yang Wei could hear and understand Chen Xi.

but......

It seemed that what I heard was somewhat different from what Yang Wei heard.

The "hearing" here is different; it doesn't refer to the content heard, but rather the way it is understood.

Let's assume that what the golden orb said is the exclusive language of the Dragon Palace.

Yang Wei was forced to understand the content of the other party's language under some kind of force.

And Chen Xi...

I really understood!

Just like understanding those words, it can't be described as "knowing" it, but rather as instinct!

Just like a fish can swim from birth.

Chen Xi had this feeling right now.

However, he wasn't too shocked, after all, it wasn't the first time; the white creature had pulled this stunt before.

So, am I being messy again?

This inadvertently reminded Chen Xi of the question, "Are you more knowledgeable today than yesterday?"

Translated to Chen Xi, it means, "Are you more busy today than yesterday?"

Or was it always a mixed bag, and you just gradually discovered it?

"What kind of reward is there?"

Chen Xi asked, "I don't know what this thing is, but it feels pretty advanced. It should be able to understand what I'm saying."

really.

"You'll need to make a choice regarding your reward: select either 'Armed' or 'Knowledge' as your reward."

"If the first choice is to arm, then there is no choice for the second time; knowledge will be acquired by default."

"Because you are providing two dragon-related forbidden items at once, you do not need to make a choice; you will automatically receive one weapon and one knowledge."

This golden orb looks so mechanical...

Aren't you going to give me an introduction?

Chen Xi mentally complained.

"What are 'armed' and 'knowledge' respectively? Also, what does 'once' mean?"

"Great contributor, now let's answer your questions."

The tone of a good AI...

Chen Xi complained again.

"Armor represents power. You will gain a form called 'Dragon Armor,' which combines all types of power within you to unleash double the total power."

"The duration of the dragon-shaped weapon depends on one's own mental power. It usually lasts only a few minutes. If one has more power, the duration can usually be measured in seconds."

"However, it can only be used once."

"I see," Chen Xi instantly understood.

The dragon-shaped armor can be simply understood as converting all the power one possesses into destructive energy, concentrating it, doubling it, and achieving a concentrated burst.

This is an incredibly terrifying power!

In other words, it can convert all those extraordinary characteristics and innate talents that are not involved in combat or direct destruction into pure destructive energy.

Assuming Chen Xi's abilities as a farmer, a brother-supporting demon, a cleaner, a child, and hyperthymesia are all 1, then the total is 5, and doubling that makes 10!

Although these abilities are not equal now and it is impossible to exert ten times the power, it should still be around five times.

The stronger the overall strength, the stronger the power unleashed by the dragon-shaped weapon.

It must be said that this weapon was very suitable for him, but unfortunately it could only be used once.

Chen Xi felt it was a bit stingy, after all, it was a forbidden item.

But upon closer examination, the Dragon Armor ability is, in a sense, equivalent to a second life.

Not all superhumans are adaptable.

It's certainly worthwhile to exchange something you don't need for an ability that's essentially a second life.

These thoughts were generated in Chen Xi's mind and were fully understood in less than a second.

This did not affect the continued explanation of the golden sphere in the slightest.

"Knowledge, as the name suggests, represents knowledge. I can answer any question you have!"

"Whatever the problem is!"
