v1 Chapter 289: Advent core

Everyone was shocked when they heard the dragon language spoken by the ant's mouth, and Leila also had an unbelievable expression on her face, thinking that an ancient person with so many memories of life can't understand the dragon language, how do you know?

The dragon was also taken aback. Then I don't know if its head is not working well or it was a little dizzy from the fat beating just now, so it asked stupidly: "Are you a dragon too?"

"No, of course I'm not."

Ant-Man said that he had shrunk back to normal size. Although he can gigantic, doing so consumes far more body energy than usual, and cannot last for too long. In the Ant-Man 2 movie, the controls of the Ant-Man suit failed, and it was difficult to restore the giant state, almost suffocating to death due to lack of oxygen.

In the game skills, it may be for restoration, and giantization is set as the ultimate skill. Ant-Man in the gigantic state will have a pressure tank, which will slowly increase as the gigantic time goes by. When it reaches a certain level, it will be forcibly released and changed back to normal size.

Once the size is restored, the pressure tank will slowly decrease again. The less the progress bar of this slot, it means that the transformation time for him to become a giant is increasing.

At this time, Ant-Man returned to normal size, with his arms open: "As you can see, I am just an ordinary human being. I have a few questions for you."

dragon:"."

Redefine "ordinary human being".

Thinking of it this way, it seemed to feel that the jaw that had just eaten the fist was hurting badly.

But after seeing the opponent's ability, it didn't dare to act recklessly. It glanced resentfully at the Advent Core in Batman's hand that once belonged to it, and said vaguely: "What do you want to know?"

"Start with that." He gestured to the small box, "What is that?"

"I don't know." Long shook his head, "It's something left by an outsider. But it's mine. I have to lock it up and keep an eye on it, otherwise disaster will happen."

"Why?" Ant-Man asked.

"I don't know, that's what everyone says."

"Everyone? The other dragons?" Ant-Man asked. "Are there any other dragons? Where are they?"

"It's dead, it's already dead." Long continued to shake his head.

For some reason, the majestic oppression of the mythical creature when this guy first appeared on the stage has long since disappeared in Chu Cheng's eyes. Listening to the voice translated by the electronically controlled helmet, and the way it sits on the ground with its legs stretched out and shaking its head, I always feel that Yazi is not very smart.

Chu Cheng also immediately thought of Leila saying that the dragon clan had long been extinct. But Layla only listened to what the ancients said, and it was the result of the ancient observation and exploration of the ancients. As for how the dragon became extinct, no one knew.

"what happened?"

"The outsiders are back," said the dragon. "We resisted, but we were defeated. They thought we were a threat, so they killed them all."

Chu Cheng was slightly startled.

He remembered Layla saying that sooner or later the gods always returned to the planets they had been to. Maybe this is not the future tense, maybe it even happened in the past.

They came back once, found a species called dragon, and judged it as a threat to the race, so they wiped it out.

"But you're still alive." Ant-Man said.

"Of course, I wasn't born at that time." Long said vaguely, "I was still an egg at that time. Many, many years have passed, and I don't know how to wake up.

When I woke up, everyone was dead, and I was the only one left. But they left me with some memories, some voices in my head.

They say that the thing that destroyed us will come back, that this locket will be the key, and we must look after it no matter what. "

Speaking of it, he became angry again: "That's mine!"

Chu Cheng asked a few more questions through Ant-Man, but he felt that the dragon's thinking was unclear, and sometimes he answered inconsequentially and irrelevantly, and couldn't explain a question for a long time. For a moment, it didn't even feel like he was asking a mythical creature, but a junior elementary school student.

But he sort of figured things out.

Those infected beasts and mutated monsters were not made by it, but what the ancients called "the core of descent".

The elders have rumored that dragons can infect lower creatures, causing them to mutate and become violent, and maybe that is actually the fault of this thing.

Although I don't know what connection this thing has with the return of the gods from beyond the sky, what I can confirm is that this may be the most dangerous source of infection unearthed by humans so far. It's just that its current effectiveness seems to be only effective for low-intelligence creatures, and has little impact on humans.

Chu Cheng simply calculated the infection level of this thing with on-site equipment, and the results surprised him a little. It is indeed more exaggerated than all the infected objects in the database of the entire Secret Service Nine. If it is not controlled, it is possible to infect all kinds of animals covering the entire Earth Pole within ten and a half months.

And such a terrible thing has been sleeping on this planet for endless years, but it has never caused a catastrophe, and it was only discovered today.

The most important reason is because of this place.

A space that seems to be isolated from the world, a realm like a paradise, this is indeed not formed naturally. This is the space opened up by the ancient dragon clan many years ago, and it was specially made to seal and suppress the power of this artifact.

Its very existence is a disaster. It can make wild beasts mutate and go crazy, and can turn an entire planet into a **** on earth where ferocious beasts run rampant and no living creature can live and develop in a very short period of time. It cannot be destroyed, and it cannot be discarded casually, so the ancient dragon clan created this special domain to isolate it from the influence of the outside world.

At this time, this not-so-intelligent guy ~lightnovelpub.net~ that Chu Cheng and others saw before their eyes was the last dragon in the world, and it was the gatekeeper of this field. The inherited memory and the instinct burned in the body allow it to guard here for many years, not only to prevent the ignorant human beings from digging here one day to take this destroyed artifact to the outside world, but also to prevent the foreign gods from making a comeback one day.

Dragons are proud creatures who have always considered themselves superior to others. Mortals regard them as divine beasts, and they themselves regard them as such, so they take it for granted that they have a duty of care for those lesser races than themselves.

So even when they were on the verge of extinction, they still created this extraterrestrial land for future generations to suppress disasters. Otherwise, human beings and all living beings on the Earth Pole Star may not have developed to this stage at all, and the entire planet has long been turned into some kind of doomsday wasteland due to the influence of this super source of infection.

Only from this point of view, this extinct race really deserves the respect of other living beings who have survived to this day.

At the same time, Chu Cheng also realized another problem revealed during the period.

The dragon said that this descent core has been here for a long time. It doesn't seem to have any concept of time, but Chu Cheng estimated that it must be a very long time.

For such a long time, the core of descent has been sealed here and no moth has ever appeared. But now, in the past two days, animals affected by it seem to have begun to appear near Jiangdu.

This is not a good sign.

Either the sealing effect of this field has weakened, or the power descending to the core has become stronger.

But if he had to guess, it might have meant something even worse.

They are coming.
