Dragon God, immortal

Generally speaking, an audience with a high-ranking figure requires sufficient etiquette, and the preparation may take several days or even a month.

Especially when meeting someone with powerful military force, one should find out the other party's preferences and taboos in advance to avoid unnecessary conflicts.

Moreover, as the visiting party, one should bring a gift and write a letter in advance to agree on a time. In the letter, one should implicitly introduce the gift one is bringing and arrive on time at the agreed time.

But this is not the case in the archipelago.

Mariel boarded the ship in confusion.

He just wrote a letter this morning, telling Su Ju that he wanted to meet the Dragon God, and then he boarded this ship... Isn't it that simple? I spent the whole night preparing this excuse!

"Today happens to be the day for transporting supplies." Su Ju stood beside Mariel, directing the cat people of the production team to load the 'canned fish' onto the ship.

"Um, Ms. Priestess, is it really okay for me to visit the Dragon God's residence like this?" Mariel looked at herself, empty-handed. If she were in the human kingdom, she would be considered insincere.

"Well... I don't know what you are worried about, but this is how we usually go to see Lord Shushan." Su Ju recalled that all they had to do was transport the people and things over.

"No, what I mean is... never mind, I'll follow your country's arrangements." Marel was terrified by the Dragon God's informality...

. . . . . .

"Trade? That's a good idea..."

Shushan lowered his head and thought.

Mariel was standing right in front of him, his expression seemingly calm, but his straight back and the cold sweat on his forehead showed that he was not at peace inside.

"Compared to these, I am more concerned about the natural disasters in your country..." Shushan shook his head, indicating that the topic would be discussed later, "I sense a certain aura from you that makes me concerned."

"I'll tell you everything I know..." Mariel said so, and she felt relieved. It would be easy to deal with if Shushan was willing to take action. Maybe she wouldn't have to travel half the route to the More Empire.

Then, Mariel began to tell the tragic story of her kingdom...

First, there was a once-in-a-century earthquake...

The towns surrounding the capital suffered heavy losses...

During the reconstruction of the town, a major earthquake occurred that occurs rarely in 500 years...

Along with the earthquake came a secret gate to the spirit world, from which emerged a horde of terrifying scorpion-like demons...

With the efforts of many divine masters in the country, the scorpion demons were finally eliminated and the gate to the secret realm was closed. However, the damage to the gate caused a crack in the ground, releasing some strange power from the underground...

It can be said that the disaster center was ravaged to the point of complete destruction, and there was even a hint of expansion towards the capital, but the king refused to seek help from outside and tried to use the national treasure to disperse the force...

The strange power was temporarily relieved.

The king also died.

The eldest prince and the fourth prince began to fight for the throne, which caused the disaster that had been slowed down with great difficulty to accelerate again, and the people suffered terribly.

At this time, Marel, the eleventh prince, contacted the Mor Empire using secret magic and tried to go to the East Continent for help.

After that, they were robbed by pirates on the way to the East Continent. Mariel fought bravely, but her ship, the Lobster, was in tatters and had lost most of its power, and drifted to the Cat's Paw Islands.

"This is really... I'm sorry to hear such news." Shushan looked subtle. The Kingdom of Amon was really plagued by disasters. First there was an earthquake and then there was a demon invasion. Uh...

Sound familiar?

That’s right, across the mountains to the north of the kingdom is the Frost Plateau.

The first earthquake was the nuclear explosion after Guangre saw the little devil, and the second earthquake was the eruption of the Evil Cold Plateau volcano.

The subsequent outpouring of demons was most likely because the demon king on the opposite side was repelled by the Flame Lizard, and his invasion of the Obsidian Plains failed. He began to look for his second choice... but ended up running into another tough guy.

The corners of Shushan's mouth twitched slightly when he heard this. Fortunately, Guangre was born in the snowy mountains where few people go. If she was allowed to explode in a densely populated area...

"Alas, even so, my eldest brother and fourth brother are still fighting for the throne, simply because our father's crown is also a national treasure. They seem to firmly believe that using that national treasure can completely solve this natural disaster." Mariel sighed.

"What's with that strange power? Is it the devil's breath from the spiritual world? But it doesn't smell like that. Instead, it smells like..." Shushan pondered. The breath was like the smell of rotting dragon meat.

"The scouts reported that the place where the secret realm's gate used to be has split into a huge natural valley. Below the valley is a dense mass of insects, which are eating each other and releasing poisonous gas... No grass grows wherever the poisonous gas passes." Marel replied, "But even if the poisonous gas is dispelled, the power is still there. It will condense into poisonous gas again in the same place in two or three days."

After saying that, he raised his head slightly to gauge Shushan's reaction.

Although he is selling misery...

But they are all really miserable...

According to the calculations of the divine magicians, in three years the poison gas will spread to the suburbs of the kingdom. That place is the kingdom's main grain producing area. Once affected, the consequences will be disastrous.

"Insects and poison gas..." Shushan seemed to be thinking about something. This kind of power was indeed strange because it could not be dispelled by magic power and was not afraid of divine power.

This is a kind of imbalance, just like the center of the scale is constantly tilting in a certain direction, and as the degree of tilt deepens, the speed at which the force expands will become faster and faster.

Shushan’s intuition was not wrong.

This natural disaster has a lot to do with the Dragon God.

Even if there is no nuclear explosion, even if there is no volcanic eruption, the mysterious power buried deep underground will sooner or later surge out of the earth and wreak havoc on the world.

And clearing up this imbalance is the job of the Dragon God... or, to be more precise, the job of Light and Heat... Well, after all, the early outbreak of this natural disaster had a lot to do with her.

"Alas..." Marel sighed again, interrupting Shushan's thoughts. "Even if we speed up the repair of the Lobster, it will be difficult to reach the More Empire on time. Besides, it takes time to negotiate with the More Empire, and it also takes time to bring the reinforcements back to the kingdom and formulate a plan. It's really... too late..."

"Well, so you want to ask for my help, right? That makes sense. Water from far away cannot quench a nearby fire. I understand your feelings." Shushan nodded. However, before Mariel could be surprised, she was poured cold water by the next words, "But, I can't leave the archipelago."

Shushan was not prepared to force his way across the sea…

I want to go to a foreign country thousands of miles away across the sea...

The difficulty is not small.

"In that case, I am being presumptuous." Marel sighed again and again. The Dragon God couldn't do it himself, so he could only think of another way...

"But..." Shushan said in a roundabout way, which made Marelle's eyes rekindle with hope, "My sister lives quite close to your country. I'll give her a call and see if she's willing to help you."

Mariel looked at Shushan expectantly, and Shushan closed his eyes and projected his consciousness to the Evil Cold Plateau.

Mariel realized that the "telephone" should be some kind of magical ability. Is the Dragon God communicating with the sister he mentioned?

After a while, Shushan opened his eyes. His words extinguished Marel's hope: "She doesn't seem happy. Is she too tired from replenishing her magic recently..."

"Thank you, Lord Dragon God, for being so concerned about our country's situation. If this has caused you any trouble, please don't be too..."

"…It's okay. I made her agree." Shushan choked back the rest of Mariel's sentence.

This matter is closely related to light and heat.

She had to go even if she didn't want to.

When Shushan tried to reason with her, she refused to roll over, so he could only use his brain to explain physics.

On the side, Mariel was having a hard time calming down. His emotions fluctuated so quickly that he didn't know how to express himself. Fortunately, his psychological quality was not bad...

then……

That night, Mariel was sent to the cold plateau.

The ferocious fire dragon looked at him unhappily and asked him to lead the way to that damn canyon to have a look...

Mariel lay on Guangre's back, feeling the cool breeze and watching her country appear on the horizon...

No? Are you Dragon Gods so resolute in your work? Do you want to solve the problems that have troubled our country for more than ten or twenty years in just one day? Are you so impatient? !

. . . . . .

A Brief History of the Cold Plateau:

Longshen Logistics originated from the Cat's Claw Islands and is known for its efficiency and precision. If you can take a ride with Longshen Logistics, you can even travel around the world in one day.

“It’s not a good feeling to be treated like cargo traveling around the world.” —An anonymous diplomat.

Chapter 60: Tree Mountain Colossus! Transform and set off!

Well, Shushan has always been neat and tidy.

Consider the worst-case and best-case scenarios before doing anything.

After completion, review and think again to clear up any loose ends.

I dare not say that every choice he made has been carefully considered, but as the Dragon God he still fulfills his responsibilities well - at least he will not do anything that will endanger the balance of the world!

"Oh my, Guangre was still young at that time, so it's really not her fault... If she were given another 20 or 30 years, she would have discovered the energy deep in the earth's crust." Shushan connected with Guangre through the "Family Group" and remotely directed his sister.

In fact, he did not solve the natural disaster in one day as Mariel thought. He just asked others to lead the way for Guangre so that Guangre could come by himself next time.

Of course, considering that people are not very enthusiastic about working with light and heat.

Therefore, Shushan Projection needs to intervene.

The projection of Shushan couldn't be too far away from the Dragon God, so it had to travel such a distance due to the heat... Well, he suddenly envied his sister. If he had a brother like him, he would have to lie on the grassland and eat grass every day, not caring about anything...

Shaking his head, Shushan chuckled and put the idea of ​​being lazy behind him. His current life was actually not that tiring. There were twenty-eight days in a month, and he only worked fourteen days a day. And he only did the more core work, which took less than a few hours a day.

For example, building the skeleton of a fishing boat, compacting the ground to create infrastructure roads, controlling the properties of spice crops, listening to the complaints of the cat-ear tribe elders... and so on.

Well, actually it’s quite a lot of work, but all this labor will eventually turn into food and resources and fall into Shushan’s claws for him to control.

It can be said that what you put in is what you gain.

This is a work environment where you can't complain.

"I hope Guangre can understand. After all, she is also a dragon god of the clan. There is nothing wrong with me beating her up when she was a child, but she has to rely on herself when she grows up." Shushan thought to himself as he received Guangre's information.

Since Su Ju returned to the Palm Ball Island, the Evil Cold Plateau is no longer ruled by Shu Shan. After confirming that the cat people on the plateau can be self-sufficient, he relaxed the management of the foothill village...

In other words, letting Guangre take care of it on her own and letting her feel the responsibility of being a ruler would be good for her growth...

Well, although Guangre is the de facto ruler of the Evil Cold Plateau, this is actually her part-time job.

Her main job is to replenish the magic of the hair crystal.

That is, charging the battery.

The magic crystal storage is the foundation for the rapid development and production of the cat-ear tribes on both sides. The light and heat are responsible for 98% of the energy consumption of the archipelago and the plateau...

She needs to concentrate every day to control the output of magic power and replenish the energy storage crystals that have been piled up like a mountain. It usually takes three or four hours to complete the work. During this time, she has to concentrate and not be lazy... It is difficult for her to calm down and do this job.

Just as Shushan was thinking.

The light and heat have reached the Valley of Scourge.

The fire dragon's physiological structure is not good at hovering in mid-air, so she circled in the air looking for a suitable place to land.

Well, mainly to give Mariel a place to stay...if she was alone there, she'd probably land using an 'Earth Drop' method.

After circling for a while, Guangre complained about the dirtiness below. The ground was extremely dirty, and thick poisonous gas lingered, turning into a thick layer of miasma on the surface.

"There's no other way. If you want to get closer, you have to clear the way..." Shushan saw the scene over there and ordered his sister: "Use your best way to clear a path."

The camera is turned to the light and heat side.

She grinned.

"okay!"

Circling upwind, Guangre opened his mouth slightly, and a joyful dragon breath reverberated between his lips and teeth, mixed with the smell of sulfur and white phosphorus, and quickly exploded with the evaporation of magic power! Roar! Flame! Shaking the mountains and fields!

As we all know, combustion is a chemical reaction that requires combustibles, combustion-supporting materials, and high temperatures to continue...

But the dragon's breath has magical catalysis, and does not completely follow these rules - the fuel for dragon's breath can be anything! The chemical reaction in the dragon's breath is enough to fill a whole page of draft paper!

Shushan guessed that this was the reason why Dragon's Breath was so powerful. After all, this kind of magic was completely unreasonable. No matter how strong or weak your electric bond was, Dragon's Breath treated everyone equally.

As the flames exploded into the sky, Guangre quickly flapped her wings to blow away the poisonous gas. She subconsciously used her wings to cast a magic spell to neutralize the reactants of the dragon's breath explosion, greatly reducing its toxicity.

A charred oval pattern appeared on the ground.

The gradient is orderly and has a geometric beauty.

The land ravaged by miasma and dragon breath appeared to be charred rock, and as time passed, it gradually turned brown and yellow.

"Hold on steady, little thing." Guangre turned his head slightly and said to Mariel.

"Ah! Yes!" Mariel quickly grabbed the rope.

This is a cable made of storm vine fibers.

It is used for light and heat transportation of canned fish.

Well, the so-called fish cans are large cans in cubic meters. Although the metal material used is aluminum alloy, several cans stacked together are not light...

In order to move the canned fish back to the house as quickly as possible, Guangre really thought of many ways. In the end, he tied them up with cables and flew them into the sky. They could withstand the weight and the torment of the Fire Dragon God... It shows how strong these cables are.

Marel was tied to such a cable... Fortunately, his body was strengthened by divine magic, otherwise he would have been strangled in mid-air...
