The remaining three... probably don't know anything about Tang Yu yet, and they won't bother Tang Yu, this nobody.

Therefore, the only possibility is Isca.

"Still relatively calm." Iska's booming voice rang out again, offering a fair assessment. "This is the depths of your consciousness. I suddenly pulled you in here because I sensed something different."

Iska paused for a moment, then said, "I sensed the presence of Jormungandr, the King of the Earth and Mountains, the Serpent of Midgard."

"Really?" Tang Yu's expression didn't show much surprise. He still had a pretty deep impression of the plot where Xia Mi was about to appear.

I reckon that by the next morning, Xia Mi, this "old boxer," will use her terrifyingly precise control over her power to destroy the entire South Railway Station...

“You don’t seem surprised at all.” After a moment, Iska’s voice rang out again.

Tang Yu didn't answer the question, but changed the subject, "Iska... could you shrink a little? My neck is getting sore from looking at you like this."

“This is a good idea.” Isca’s figure flickered and then rapidly shrank. In just a moment, his star-sized body became a miniature dragon the size of a palm.

At this moment, Iska did not look ferocious at all. Her amethyst scales shimmered, and with her heavy golden eyes, she looked more like a precious work of art.

56 Secrets

The shrunken Iska landed on Tang Yu's head, and its voice changed, no longer loud, but somewhat ethereal.

Iska: "You seem to know a lot! I thought you were just an ordinary mortal... but now it seems you have your own secrets, and big secrets that could overturn the world."

"Everyone has their own secrets, don't they?" Tang Yu shrugged noncommittally. "I couldn't find you for the past few days, and now that you've taken the initiative to contact me, can you tell me about yourself?" Tang Yu shifted to a more comfortable position and asked softly.

"I was planning to tell you this next time we met, but since you asked, it's not impossible to tell you now. You probably already know my name. In the era when dragons ruled the world, they generally called me the Sinful Dragon."

"To the dragons, I was a sinner who blasphemed their bloodline. To humans, I was a monster with dragon blood and a human heart. In that era, both races regarded me as a heretic and relentlessly hunted me down..."

"Wait..." Tang Yu rubbed his temples. "Why don't you start from a little earlier? I don't understand some of it."

“Alright then.” Mini Iska on top of his head flicked its tail. “Let’s start with my birth! Speaking of which, I should be considered the first hybrid in history…”

Tang Yu detected a hint of self-mockery in Iska's voice, but he remained silent and listened quietly to Iska's narration.

"In that era when dragons ruled over humans, humans were like the cheapest slaves... The first three human sages risked their lives to hunt down three second-generation dragons and one next-generation dragon. From that day on, I was no longer human..."

“The sages chose me, an ordinary slave boy. They purified the bloodline of the dragons with a large amount of Philosopher's Stones, and then injected the bloodline into my body with the dead souls stolen from the Nibelungen.”

"Amidst immense pain, the blood of the dragon race began to grow within my body. I thought I was going to die, but I didn't; I survived! From that moment on, Iska, with dragon blood flowing through her veins, began to fight for humanity."

Iska looked very depressed; his wings were flapping slowly, and his tail was swaying at an imperceptible frequency.

"I was so naive! I thought I would be seen as a hero by humans, but those short-sighted guys regarded me as a heretic. The dragons also learned of my whereabouts and began to hunt me down relentlessly. The three human sages who created me have disappeared without a trace, leaving me alone to face the wrath of both races."

"I've been hiding for decades, I'm tired... You probably saw what happened next in your dreams." Iska closed her eyes, seemingly unwilling to recall that unbearable past.

"So, the person on the stake was you," Tang Yu said softly. "Humanity, relying on advanced science and technology, has continuously climbed onto the throne of God. Each climb is a perilous leap, bringing us closer and closer to God, while ignorance gradually disappears..."

"You don't need to defend humanity! Greed and ignorance are inherent flaws rooted in human genes. The reason I'm still willing to help you now is as a way of repaying a debt of gratitude... Oh, right, the story from earlier isn't finished yet."

“That wicked fire didn’t kill me, even though those greedy fellows added mercury, mithril, saltpeter, and the blood of the Holy Infant! But they still underestimated my vitality. In the end, the long-lost Three Sages appeared, and they made a deal with their then-king…” Iska said softly.

"That deal turned the sages, who were once angels, into demons! Their hands are stained with sin... because they created the first generation of hybrids."

Tang Yu fell silent. Of course, he knew that the emergence of hybrids was not accidental, but rather stemmed from one dirty experiment after another in ancient times.

The transformation from a sage who saves all living beings to a demon must be an experience that resonates deeply with people...

Neither the human nor the dragon had any desire to continue the conversation. After a long silence, Isca gently flapped its wings, sending Tang Yu out of the consciousness space. It then shifted to a more comfortable position and continued to slumber in this vast sea of ​​stars.

Tang Yu opened his eyes in his bed.

It was still pitch black outside, and Tang Yu was too lazy to check his watch. He estimated that it was around two or three in the morning.

"Can't sleep already? That's ridiculous." Tang Yu, wide awake, scratched his head, opened his laptop, logged into Steam with practiced ease, and began his enjoyable gaming session…

Tang Yu played until about six in the morning. He had just swung his mouse and killed the enemy's ADC. Just as he was about to press his advantage, a loud bang came from outside.

Judging from the sound, it sounds like something has collapsed!

"What was bound to happen has finally happened." Tang Yu sighed, put down the game, and opened the window.

A column of smoke shot into the sky from the northeast direction of the window.

In that direction lies the city's landmark building, the South Railway Station.

"It seems Xia Mi did take action after all. I wonder if Raymond is dead or not. I hope he listened to what I said." Tang Yu glanced at it a few more times, then sat back down in front of the computer and started arguing with his foul-mouthed Zaun teammates.

Five minutes ago, at the South Railway Station.

Raymond got out of the taxi, dressed exactly like the Man in Black from The Matrix, wearing sunglasses and carrying a black suitcase.

The box looked very ordinary, except for a unique mark on the side—the half-decayed World Tree.

Above the box was a tin seal with a blood-red ouroboros on it, its blood-red eyes coldly watching the world.

This kind of emblem is very rare. Even Raymond, a top agent who has served the Executive Department for more than 20 years, has only seen the shape of the emblem in books.

It means... that it contains "SS-level" top-secret documents, directly signed by the Secret Service Elders, capable of influencing the entire world.

Raymond was very careful throughout the mission. Along the way, he encountered several groups of petty thieves who tried to cause trouble, but he managed to deal with them all.

The mission is now nearing its end. Take this train to the designated location, deliver the box to the designated person, and Raymond's mission will be successfully completed.

Even so, he did not let his guard down in the slightest.

The real danger often comes from the moment when you are closest to success.

……

"It seems like it's been over a decade since I last visited China. The changes are truly astounding! Last time I came, they were still using food coupons to exchange for food, but now they're able to build structures of this caliber!"

Raymond looked up at the glass dome above the South Railway Station and murmured in admiration.

------------

57 The Broken South Railway Station

The glass dome above the South Railway Station cost millions of dollars, with hundreds of aluminum frames supporting countless curved glass panels to form the dome.

Standing inside the station and looking up, the world seems to shrink.

As a senior commissioner of the Peruvian Party, Raymond's first task was to confirm whether there was any danger inside the South Train Station.

For SS-level missions, he may even need to sacrifice himself to ensure the safety of the mission items when necessary.

Raymond glanced around discreetly. Since the South Railway Station had just opened and was still in the trial operation phase, and it was still early, there weren't many people waiting for the train.

These people look ordinary; they're just blue-collar and white-collar workers who work 996 hours a day. Even if they swarmed in, they wouldn't pose much of a threat to Raymond, a professional.

After assessing the biological factors, the next step is the environment.

Raymond's mind immediately raced through all the information about the South Railway Station.

As a newly built train station in the last two years, it has an extremely high safety rating! The lower part is made of reinforced concrete, and in the glass curtain wall above, all the aluminum frames have been heat-treated to eliminate internal tension.

According to the safety assessment center, this train station can withstand an earthquake of at least magnitude 8 with only minor damage.

Thinking of this, Raymond couldn't help but look up again.

The glass curtain wall above is not made of any special material; it is just ordinary glass that has undergone some minor processing.

If the train station were to encounter an external force that it could not withstand, causing the entire station to deform, then these glass panels would shatter instantly into thousands of pieces, turning into deadly blades!

Thousands of sharp shards of glass fell from a height of tens of meters; the scene was nothing short of divine punishment!

In that situation, most people had no choice but to clasp their hands together, trembling... waiting for death to come in fear.

The remaining small group of people can find other ways.

Raymond took two steps forward, instinctively looking for a place to hide should a disaster strike, to ensure the mission's success.

Raymond remembered having a brief discussion with the boy he had investigated in the academy's medical department last month.

Regarding Raymond's Word of Power: Blazing Sun!

Word of Power: Blazing Sun

Sequence 28

Bronze and Fire King's Domain

Looking at the entire Word Power cycle chart, Word Power · Blazing Sun is basically ranked at the very top, which means that this Word Power is a very safe and low-risk Word Power.

Generally speaking, the safer the power of words, the more ordinary and weak its effect.

But Blazing Sun is an exception; this Word of Power is absolutely bug-level!

The Word of Power itself has no offensive power; its effect is to allow the user to radiate a light of up to 4000 lumens outward from their own body, turning the user into a bright light bulb.

Most organic life forms cannot see effectively under this intensity of light, and their attacks will only be possible by chance.

Thanks to this Word of Power, Raymond, as an executive commissioner, was virtually never injured by the enemy during his more than twenty years of missions.

This word of power seems to be unsolvable!

But the handsome young man lying on the hospital bed, like an old professor who had studied the power of words for many years, pointed out the fatal weakness of the power of words: Blazing Sun.

This kind of spiritual power cannot defend against a large-scale, sweeping attack.

The so-called "blanket attack" refers to an attack that does not involve aiming but instead uses powerful firepower to completely cover the area where the target is located.

The firepower continued to saturate the area until it was completely destroyed.

"If an earthquake occurs, the glass curtain wall of the dome will shatter, and the falling glass shards will be a devastating attack. In that situation, the Word of Power: Blazing Sun will be useless; it will all depend on my luck to dodge every single glass shard," Raymond thought to himself.

“However, there is a solution…” Beside Raymond was a wooden bench.

These benches were originally provided by the staff of the South Railway Station as a place for passengers to rest while waiting for their trains.

Now, Raymond has used it as a refuge; the wooden planks on the bench are thick enough to withstand shards of glass falling from the sky.

"Am I being paranoid?" Raymond shook his head with a wry smile. "It's just a train ride, and I'm already thinking so much! How could this place possibly collapse? It's impossible for someone to be so arrogant as to use weapons of mass destruction on Chinese soil!"

Raymond felt a tiny bit ashamed of what he had just done.

Just then, a loud bang came from high above, and in an instant, the entire South Railway Station shook violently.

Under the horrified gazes of dozens of passengers waiting for the train, the aluminum frame supporting the glass dome gradually bent, eventually twisting into a terrifying shape like a pretzel.

Without the support of the aluminum frame, the glass dome shattered into thousands of pieces in an instant, falling from the sky with enormous kinetic energy.

At that moment, Raymond's pupils shrank to pinpoints, and even with his fifty-plus years of experience, he couldn't remain calm! He felt... the sky had fallen!
