Wizards pursue the truth

Chapter 380 [380] The Dragon's Nest: Another Divination by Andersen

In the dimly lit underground cavern, strange stalactites clung to the walls, along with the excrement of some unknown creature. A figure dressed in a black hooded Chinese-style robe cast a bizarre and large shadow.

"What do you want? An unknown civilization, an unknown world, an unknown existence. Express the wishes of both parties and exchange extraordinary resources."

The hoarse voice emanated from the figure's chest, like the croaking of a toad combined with the rubbing of tree bark. At the highest pitch, it was struck with a wooden stick, making the meaning very clear: spiritual power could resolve the problems of different civilizations and languages.

Wang Ya could see the other party, and the other party could naturally see the situation on the other side as well. From the mental fluctuations, he had already felt the tension in this transaction. World trade is often very dangerous, but it also carries huge opportunities. If it is handled well, it is possible to quickly improve one's strength by exchanging resources from different worlds.

If problems arise during the transaction, it could very well lead to the death of one of the parties involved.

There are even extraordinary individuals who fish using the World Altar.

Seemingly noticing the group of formal wizards standing beside him, the black-robed figure grew increasingly anxious, even considering severing the phase-space connection.

Finally, Wang Ya spoke, "What should I call you? What do you need, and what can you bring me?"

"You can call me 'Dragon King'."

"Arthur".

"I need resources that can enhance my mental strength, as well as physical resources, anything is fine, as long as it works for me and prevents drug resistance from developing too quickly."

Wang Ya felt the spiritual power coming from the phase spacetime connection channel, clearly carrying an expectant look, and a smile appeared on his lips.

"As you expected, I do have what you need, and there is no resistance to it; it only depends on your strength."

"Impossible! How could there be no drug resistance? All extraordinary resources have drug resistance." The Dragon King trembled, his emotions running high, before calming down, clearly having realized something.

With a hint of excitement in his voice, he asked, "Do you possess some special extraordinary resources from the Candle Dragon Realm?"

Wang Ya's heart stirred slightly. It seemed that the civilization world where this Dragon King lived was indeed of a very high level, and it seemed to be related to dragons. Could the Candle Dragon Realm be the Dream World?

Different worlds have different names and understandings, and Wang Ya is well aware of this.

Some of the trading methods we originally planned may need to be changed.

"I need flesh and blood, flesh and blood related to dragons, marrow, spirit, and even soul."

This is indeed what Wang Ya needs. The Sea Dragon Secret Realm is integrated with the Conquest Fortress and is located on the first level of the Secret Realm. The energy supply can maintain the internal balance of the Sea Dragon Secret Realm, but it lacks dragon-related substances, so it is difficult to generate some of the special extraordinary resources that exist inside the Sea Dragon Secret Realm.

After the analysis of Wang Ya's physical transformation into a witch body is completed, practical changes will be needed, which may involve consuming a large amount of related extraordinary resources.

This is not impossible; some preparations can be made in advance.

Maintaining the uniqueness of the Sea Dragon Secret Realm is also a good thing for the Conquest Conference, as it replenishes the abundance of resources, which may be useful in future world trade.

The Underdark War happened so quickly that there was absolutely no chance to take the Underdark's vaults.

The Ocean Corridor does contain a number of resources, but they are not sustainable.

What Wang Ya regrets most is the existence of those small secret realms in the Dark Lands and the three medium-sized secret realms. If they were integrated into the Conquest Fortress, there would be no worries about the sustainable supply of extraordinary resources.

With diverse ecological environments, one can also try planting different extraordinary plants.

"Dragon's Nest, I possess a Dragon's Nest, containing thousands of dragons that can satisfy your needs," the Dragon King continued. "If you wish to conduct a transaction, you will need to utilize the Spacetime Balance Scales beforehand. These scales are based on special rules of spacetime and were specifically created for global trade."

"You place the corresponding resources on one side of the scale, and I place them on the other side. Once the balance is achieved, the resources of both parties can be exchanged. The Gate of the World is the lever of the scale."

Wang Ya possessed the relevant knowledge in his mind.

His powerful and extraordinary spiritual energy intervened in the world altar. The light curtain generated by the bone pillar gradually faded, and the light ring at the edge continued to appear, eventually forming a very special illusory light gate.

White light particles continued to converge, gradually outlining part of the balance scale.

On the scales, a metal container filled with extraordinary resources was placed. As the scales tilted toward him, Wang Ya's gaze seemed to pass through the light screen filled by the scales and see the Dragon King's figure on the other side, who was constantly adding weight.

The balance of Libra is not just about weight in the conventional sense; it also possesses extraordinary properties. More and less, when combined, constitute weight.

Click!

At this moment, the scales slowly swayed, and after the addition of weight, the scales began to reach equilibrium.

The Gate of Worlds suddenly reversed, and the scales of the other world switched over, while the scales belonging to Wang Ya were transferred to the other side.

On the scale was the Dragon King's lair, a massive, deep red mass of flesh radiating heat and magma. Wang Ya sensed a powerful vitality and extraordinary nature emanating from it. Within the fleshy mass were numerous living beings, seemingly a hidden world with spatial folding capabilities.

"This is the first time I've seen a transaction through the Gate of the World. I've only ever observed it in ancient texts before." The Machine God Wizard, the Drywood Wizard, and the others all looked surprised and curious.

While it's not that the official wizards of the Underdark lack the resources to build world altars, establishing phase-space connections to unknown civilizations is like searching for a needle in a haystack. Finding three extraordinary civilizations at once, like conquering fortresses, is simply a matter of pure luck.

Often, decades or even centuries pass without any results, and the energy consumed is something that ordinary formal wizards cannot afford. As a result, this exploration gradually stopped happening among the formal wizard groups in the outer areas.

"King Hanging, can the Dragon's Nest be used to replenish the dragon's matter in the Sea Dragon Secret Realm? Are there any problems with its contents? Will consuming it have a negative impact on you?"

Next to the main control room was Wang Ya's lord's area. From inside the study, the voice of the strangled prince also answered.

Wang Ya's pupils reflected the watermelon-sized dragon's nest, their pupils shimmering with white, dancing arcs of light.
