Leon weighed the fairy dragon egg in his hand and briefly told Aqua about the situation in the holy city.
"Oh, so that's how it is. Maybe the explosion in the Holy City that Meimei experienced is related to this."
Aqua suppressed her smile, covering her mouth with her hands as she pondered, "Well, if you've seen Freya, or a high-level fairy dragon, you'd have a deeper understanding of their nature. Considering the connection between the so-called protection of the Holy City and the Fairy Kingdom, it's indeed possible that it's causing trouble."
She sighed helplessly: "It's so annoying, I have to take care of this matter."
"Is this the Dragon God's duty?"
"That's it."
That's my duty, why are you sighing? Li Ang thought to himself.
As if she knew what he was talking about, or was used to people questioning her, Aqua added, "I just feel like I have less time for fun again."
She scratched her pink head and said, "We need to go to the magic dimension to see what the fairy dragons are doing."
Li Ang said, "I have seen an 8th-level fairy dragon named Nymph. She was the strongest helper of the mastermind behind the conspiracy just now."
"Nymph, I don't know where this little dragon came from. But this naming method shows that she is a direct descendant of Freya." said the Water Dragon.
"So, as the Dragon God who has seen through eternity and supports the world, you also know who Fufu Ferrin is?"
"A princess of the Fairy Kingdom, huh? That kingdom is a microcosm of the barbaric ancient times of Newbis. Back when the Firstborn still walked the earth, the ancient elves, fairies, earth spirits, and dragons flourished just like the Beast-Eared and Toad-Ding tribes today. Your other girlfriend's power is a remnant of the Demon Flower King's Court, and it's far weaker than that of the Fairy Kingdom."
Aqua explained further that the fairy kingdom is actually an isolated island that became independent from the existing Newbis during the ancient upheaval. It retains everything from the ancient times, but no longer communicates with the outside world.
"The origins of fairies are also very complex. They contain a mixture of the blood of elves, natural monsters, and fairy dragons, so they are closely connected to fairy dragons."
Aqua casually revealed a secret that ordinary people could hardly know.
She glanced at Li Ang's "tell me more" expression and frowned, "I know you want to know, but it's tiring to talk about it, so let's talk about it later.
"In short, the fairy dragon is the least suitable."
Li Ang said: "So later, I had a backup option."
"Hai Long?"
"It's the Earth Serpent."
Li Ang told the Water Dragon about the first star soul he and Zoe encountered.
Aqua listened carefully to Leon's statement, and asked him to call Zoe over and summon out Anastasia who was still gestating in the eggshell.
The Water Dragon stared at the golden eggshell for a long time.
The first few times Leon looked at her, it was as if he had used his magic to analyze the essence of the Earth Serpent. She paused because she was thinking about other things.
"You're quite insightful. This snake, formed from the laws of the earth, can indeed be considered a type of dragon. Dragons are established as life forms at the level of conceptual laws, and the criterion for identification is whether or not they possess the dragon factor."
Aqua raised her palm, and a drop of dark liquid appeared.
This was exactly what Leon had seen before, the dragon factor that Farina valued extremely, but had to consume in order for Bahamut to break free from his restraints.
Its purity was higher than the previous drop. As it emerged, the surrounding air swirled, and the shape of a dragon was faintly visible within it.
"This golden egg is rich in dragon energy. I'll add a little more to it."
After saying this, the Water Dragon extended his palm, and the dragon factor merged into the eggshell.
The golden giant egg emits a strong golden-red light. When the light fades, the surface of the eggshell is covered with blood vessels. They flicker and beat slowly, making the egg look like a beating heart.
"What did you do?" Zoe stared at the Earth Serpent's eggs. She didn't feel anything wrong, but she didn't understand what was happening.
"I made its characteristics closer to a 'dragon' rather than a 'earth monster'. Its structure is still a star soul, but the composition ratio has been adjusted. In this way, it will be stronger when it is reborn and can better help you improve your dragon summoner rank." Aqua said to Zoe.
The chestnut-haired girl nodded, not quite understanding, and Leon thanked her on her behalf.
This was another unexpected thing. I didn’t expect that the god would be so generous.
However, perhaps there is a price to pay for every gain, and it depends on what she wants.
After letting Zoe take the snake eggs and sit aside, Aqua finally let Leon take out the sea dragon eggs.
She sighed as she looked at the monster egg, which was brimming with life and had aqua-blue waves on its surface.
"You know what? In order to stop your ex-girlfriends from two different worlds, my sea dragon clones expended a lot of energy."
"Only one of them is my ex-girlfriend." Li Ang corrected.
"I'm too lazy to understand these matters between mortals. Anyway, isn't your value that the more mating, the better?"
Aqua waved her hand. "What I'm saying is that, with no other options, that fragment of the spirit ended up staying in this egg."
Li Ang felt his palm sink.
After receiving so much practical help from the Water Dragon, he didn't know what to say.
It’s hard to tell how to view this matter.
Psychologically, he certainly couldn't really regard these spirits as monsters tamed by the system, but he really couldn't say which one was stronger, the weakened spirits or the system.
But if he really angered her, he would have no chance of defeating the Water Dragon's true form.
So he now listened to her words with respect for Shuilong.
"This dragon doesn't know what your secret method is. The dragon-worshiping civilization did leave behind many strange things. This is all because of those dragon ancestors. Well, let's not talk about this. Anyway, your egg is the new ancestor of the sea dragon.
Aqua's white and tender palm stroked the sea dragon egg, coming into contact with the most powerful incarnation. The Sea Dragon Ancestor, as a spiritual offspring of the Water Dragon, smoothly absorbed power from her. The ripples on the eggshell surface turned into ocean waves, and the edges of the eggshell began to grow rapidly, turning into fin-like spikes like crystals.
At this moment, it was obvious that this monster egg was no ordinary creature. Even people who didn't know much about it would think that an extremely powerful monster was being bred inside.
"First of all, it will grow quickly and become a powerful aid to you. Now your team's survival is related to the world, so helping you is not too unfair, but if it really, really becomes that thing—"
The pink-haired girl's words were a little hesitant.
"I don't think so. I will respect the reborn Sea Dragon Ancestor as much as I respect Water Dragon-sama."
Aqua, with a slightly flushed face, looked at him for a while and nodded reluctantly.
This question came to an end, because he and Aqua couldn't say what would happen after the Sea Dragon Ancestor was reborn. Would he really obey Leon's orders completely, or would he be able to break free from his constraints by relying on the power of the gods?
This was even the first time he had used the system to cultivate and tame monsters, and he didn't know what the result would be.
He brought up a previous question and changed the subject.
"I just had a question. If finding the Wedge of Creation allows one to travel to different parallel, er, 'algorithmic worlds', shouldn't there be many of them?"
When he first understood the truth about Meimei and Meluna, he didn't think about it too much, but he discovered the problem later.
Since there are two of them, and they themselves said that all calculation records can be seen in the Wedge of Creation, it means that the world has been destroyed countless times.
If so, aren't there other "saviors" trying to do the same thing?
Aqua replied, "Because we six dragons are part of the world itself, we have no idea of crossing worlds. However, from my knowledge, the biggest reason is that the Wedge of Creation cannot be found.
"It was hidden away by the eldest sons. Don't underestimate them. Do you think the Six Dragons and the Dragon Ancestor, these fragments of the power of creation, are any more powerful than the first race created by the gods? They also developed tools and spells just like today's powerful mortals. Oh, or rather, you are more like them. In short, they are the gods that fit the imagery of your various myths.
“Although the eldest sons of God cannot individually compete with the Six Dragons and the Dragon Ancestor, if they gather their power as a group, they can rival us.
"So, finding the Wedge of Creation is difficult for us six dragons and the Dragon Ancestor. As for Meimei, it was only when the world was destroyed that its hiding place was broken and the Light and Dark Dragons over there found it."
Li Ang understood what she meant. She wanted to say that most of the "saviors" failed because they couldn't even find the Wedge of Creation.
Come to think of it, there is really nothing wrong with it, because every calculation world is a world of failure and destruction. If the Wedge of Creation can be found earlier, perhaps the outcome can be rewritten. Since we have failed, it means that we have not found it.
"Also, the stronger the individual, the harder it is to cross over to another algorithmic world, because the impact will be too great and they will be rejected by the Wedge of Creation." Shuilong added.
Leon nodded. This was quite reasonable and also served as a supplementary explanation for why there were no various beings crossing the world.
He thought again, "How did the Dragon Gods know all this when they haven't had direct communication with the God of Creation?"
The Water Dragon pointed to his head and said, "It's like a regret left by God. We naturally know what we should know."
That was all it had to say. Afterwards, Leon asked her to tell him more about the fairy kingdom and record it.
After chatting with the Water Dragon, everyone no longer had to gather together and could return to their various tasks.
Li Ang and his team members saw Meluna following them not far away, and they felt a headache.
But fortunately, she now began to consider his emotions, and seeing that he didn't want to pay attention, she didn't rush in front of him.
After returning to the secret realm on the treetop, Li Ang, who was a little dizzy because of this sudden incident, began to think about the next specific itinerary, and Meimei visited him again.
280. Maintenance clearance
It’s not quite right to call it a visit. When Li Ang saw her, she actually looked like she was looking for someone everywhere.
"What are you doing?"
Li Ang's question startled the former "savior" who looked like a little girl. She pouted and said, "I'm looking for Rabbit."
"Isn't she right there?"
Leon looked at the pink-haired incarnation of the god who was half asleep and half awake, holding a bottle of wine.
"That one."
Meimei hesitated for a moment and said, "The gods have many incarnations. That one is the main spirit of the Water Dragon, yes, but what I want to find is—"
"For you, the image of the Water Dragon, whether it is in dragon form or human form, is relatively unfamiliar to you?" Leon asked.
Meimei looked at him thoughtfully and nodded.
Leon sighed and told her that because of her fight with Meluna, the Moon Hidden Rabbit's form was no longer able to maintain.
"Is that so?"
Meimei, no longer pretending to be an innocent girl, did not react much, but just silently accepted the fact.
Li Ang was also very emotional when he thought about her experience before reincarnation.
From his perspective, I can understand some of it, but I can't fully empathize with it.
The reason why I can partially understand it also comes from some long CRPG games I played on Earth. When playing the role on a long journey, each choice and encounter may cause the story to progress in a different direction, but there are some things that I can't do anything about, which may be like a struggle.
But despite the constant struggle, one still has to watch the world being pushed to the brink of destruction. This helplessness is understandable when playing games, but it is definitely only one percent or even less of those who have experienced it personally, so one cannot sympathize with it, but can only understand it.
When she has really seen so many deaths and experienced so many separations, some emotions will become numb and some values will change greatly.
Perhaps, separation from Yueyintu, who had been with her day and night, was just a small part of countless farewells, so she was so calm.
Li Ang was thinking this when he saw two tears suddenly fall from Meimei's eyes.
Tear marks suddenly ran across her cheeks, Meimei's eyelashes trembled, tears filled her eyes, and her crisp voice became soft and sad.
"I just kept thinking, if I were given another chance, I would definitely do better."
"maybe."
Li Ang thought about the rebirth stories he had read before. Logically speaking, there was nothing wrong with doing better in a second life.
"However, you cannot use the elimination of this 'savior' as a means to start over. No matter who she is, it won't interfere with your ability to save Newbiss."
Meimei wiped her eyes and said, "I'm sorry, I failed again."
She sniffed, calming her surging emotions and trying to keep her voice steady.
"I'm actually quite stupid. I've always been helped and protected, but I've never really stepped up to do anything."
She squatted on the ground, hugging her knees and burying her head.
"I don't know what to do anymore. It seems like this world doesn't need me."
Did she give up? Li Ang thought as he looked at her slender back.
It is reasonable to not know where to go all of a sudden, but this girl, perhaps she was defeated by too many failures, or perhaps like Meluna, no one taught her well. She seemed to have more people caring about her than the black-haired female swordsman, but every time she didn't calm down and follow the learning, she changed the environment again, resulting in her not being as pure as Meluna.
This caused her to have problems with her views on many things.
"First of all, the official battle with the Empire hasn't even begun yet."
Li Ang folded his arms and said, "Secondly, your decisive admission of error and hugging your head is also an act of avoidance. You should think clearly about what you want to do next and how to do it."
Meimei's back tensed up, and she was silent for a moment. Then a voice hummed from the gap between her burrowed heads: "The person who bullied me like that made his words sound so noble and righteous."
"You little brat." Leon's fist hardened and his devil's hand clenched tightly.
"If you hadn't wanted to kill me, would it have come to that? Oh, I don't want to bother with you. Think about it yourself. But there is one thing. You really must apologize to Mizuryu-sama. You won't refuse to be her agent, right? Anyway, she will give you the order, so you don't have to think about it."
Meimei raised her head, her eyes red, and looked at him angrily, but she was completely unable to refute him.
Li Ang turned around and left. He was busy with his own business and was interrupted by this guy.
Build equipment and then go to the Rudder City.
I walked all the way to the previous weapons shop and explained to the owner that I had something urgent to do. Fortunately, there was no demand for weapons in Huanyier City at the moment, so everything was normal at the forge and no one was troubled.
