Goddess Wanhua Mirror

"No way!"

Seeing that the giant dragon asked him to go with him, Lude immediately guessed that the other party should ask him to rescue the female black dragon that was seriously injured by Hamilton.As long as this seemingly smart male dragon still wants something from itself, there is room for negotiation between the two parties, so Lude agreed without hesitation.

But as soon as his words fell, several other people present expressed their collective opposition.

Especially Aina and Hume, the former and Lude are masters and apprentices, but they love each other like father and daughter (?), the basis of their relationship lies there.Hume, on the other hand, regards Lude as the key to turning himself over. He and the original fire in his body are equally important.

Many villagers in the village who had been favored by Lu De also stood up. Even though everyone was clearly terrified, their arms and legs trembling uncontrollably in front of the dragon, they still held on and did not flinch.

In the eyes of these aristocrats, lazy people who live in this ignorant and backward era, although they have become numb, selfish and cold-blooded in order to live, there is always a trace of indelible brilliance in human nature, which makes them Gratitude.

Looking at these timid villagers who forced themselves to be brave, Lu De couldn't help showing a gratified smile.

"It's not in vain that I have told so many stories, and I have finally grown a little bit."

Seeing that everyone was willing to fight against the dragon in order to protect themselves, Lu De hurriedly waved his hands to signal everyone not to act rashly.

"Everyone! Don't be impulsive, this is my decision. I am a priest, and it is my vocation to save lives at stake. I guess this Mr. Dragon should be the wife who wants me to save his life. If this bridges the animosity between the two parties, I'm willing to give it my all."

Lu De spoke loudly, and stared straight at the dragon without changing his face. The wind, snow and dragon's power were not enough to shake his old body, like a towering mountain, protecting the old and weak women and children in the temple behind him from the wind and rain.Therefore, in the eyes of everyone, the image of the priest became more and more sacred.

"Saints! These are the saints chosen by God!"

I don't know who started it in the crowd. The villagers who hadn't escaped paid homage to Lu De one after another. Everyone was moved to tears by Lu De's selfless self-sacrifice.

The male black dragon was also a little overwhelmed by this scene. This was the first time he saw a human like Lude.

"Mr. Dragon, I can go with you, but please wait a few minutes for me, I need to explain to my disciples and friends."

Facing Lude's sincere request, the giant dragon nodded, and then Lude looked back at the group of friends behind him who were hesitant to speak, and said with a smile.

"Don't be so sad. I'm here for a visit, not to die. I'll come back after I finish my work. It's fine."

"Master, how about I go with you."

Aina, who was still a little weak, stepped forward and hugged Lu De. In the past few months since she was born, she has never left Lu De's side for half a step. He is the person she trusts and is closest to.So when she realized for the first time in her life that her master was going to leave her, and might never come back, Aina was really scared, and she couldn't bear Luther to leave.

Lu De tenderly touched the head of this silly little goddess.

"Silly girl, I have some confidence in your master. Stay here and take good care of the temple and your senior sister Shanisi. If you really want to help me, please pray with everyone in the village. The goddess will definitely bless me."

As Luther spoke, he gently pushed Aina away and handed it to Hume, and made a secret wink, which Hume immediately understood.His words of "pray more" just now are not words of comfort, but really need the whole village, men, women and children to pray frantically together to replenish Aina's faith.

As long as Aina's faith is sufficient, then Lude, the priest of the God of Medicine, will have magical powers to use, and it really depends on everyone's care whether he can survive.

After explaining the most important thing, Lude asked Shanis to get another robe for himself, then picked up the box containing the dragon eggs, turned and walked towards the black dragon.

"I kept you waiting, we can go now."

Seeing that Lude was ready, the black dragon stretched out its giant claws and grabbed him and the dragon egg. The strength of the grip was just right, and then it flapped its giant wings and rose from the ground, circling the sky above the temple, and then turned its head Flying towards the depths of the Void Forest in the north, it quickly disappeared from everyone's sight.

The people present realized that they had successfully survived the attack of the giant dragon, but the price was the self-sacrifice of the priest. Everyone felt sad for a moment, and there was a sad atmosphere inside and outside the temple.

End of this chapter

While the whole village is worried about Lu De's safety, he himself is quite calm at this moment, and even enjoys this very special flight experience a little bit.

At the beginning, Lu De was quite worried, so he specially put on a double-layer jacket, fearing that he would be icy in the wind, and would be directly frozen into an old popsicle by the cold winter wind. The surface of the dragon body has an invisible layer, which can isolate the wind and snow.

This seems to be the reason why this big guy is not aerodynamic at all, but can still fly so fast.

It may not be scientific, but it is magical!

With a speed of at least 10 kilometers per hour, the black dragon flew for less than [-] minutes, and came to a cave located halfway up the mountain.

As soon as the male black dragon landed, he carried Lude and the egg in his arms with one paw, and ran towards the depths of the cave, twisting and turning, and soon came to an empty cave the size of two or three football fields. There was a strong smell of blood in the cave.

Borrowing sunlight from the cracks in the cave roof, Lu De saw a bloody female black dragon. It was much smaller than the male, but it was still nearly 20 meters long from head to toe.There was a horribly large gash in the abdomen, deep enough to see the ribs and internal organs.

According to what Hamilton said before, they attacked the female dragon in the morning six days ago. Humans with this degree of injury would only last for a few minutes at most, but the female dragon remained stiff for nearly a week and still did not stop breathing. , the tenacious vitality of the Dragon Clan can be seen from this!

Perhaps hearing the sound of the return of the male dragon, the female dragon's eyes opened slightly, and she tried hard to raise her head.Seeing this, the male dragon hurriedly put down the Lude and the egg in his hand, stepped forward and gently rubbed his head against the female dragon's cheek to keep her from moving.

Seeing this, Lu De on the side thought that he had been single for two lifetimes, but now he had two big lizards stuffed his mouth full of dog food.Who can I ask for reasoning?

At this time, Lu De saw that there were two dragon eggs in the haystack not far from the female dragon, which must have been chased out by the male dragon to snatch them back, and the two teams of Silver Winged Knights must have been wiped out.

But obviously, the process of grabbing the eggs was not all smooth sailing. One of the dragon eggs had very obvious cracks in its shell, and a lot of milky yellow mucus leaked out from the cracks.

Now that the man had arrived at the dragon's nest, Lu De simply put down the dragon egg that he had been holding in his arms all the time, and went straight to the female dragon to check its wounds.

Seeing this, Xionglong asked in a very worried tone.

"How is her injury? Can you heal it?"

"It's a bit difficult, but it shouldn't bother me."

After stretching his muscles and bones, Lu De signaled Xionglong to rest assured, as if he had a well-thought-out plan, but in fact he didn't have any confidence in his heart.

Lude first tried his hand to confirm that the use of divine spells did not fail due to the distance, and then carefully inspected the wound of the female dragon, explaining to the black dragon next to him while looking at it, so that this guy could feel relieved about himself.

"Your wife's abdomen is deeply wounded. There are signs of a fracture in the right front leg, and the internal organs have also been damaged to a certain extent. For such a complicated trauma, simply closing the incision is not enough. I must first repair the internal organs, and then repair the fracture. It can only be corrected, and you have to help me."

"How can I help you?"

"I need you to lift me up and get closer to the internal organs. You certainly don't want to see me stepping on your wife's wound and getting in?"

At Lude's request, the male black dragon grabbed him by the waist and approached the female dragon's wound, Lude's upper body was almost completely inserted.Borrowing the light of lay on hands, Lu De began to repair the injured organs. Xionglong stared at him the whole time, for fear that he would make any small moves.

It took nearly an hour for Lu De to successfully repair the injured internal organs of the female dragon. During the period, he saw the beating heart of the female dragon at close range, with a diameter of about one meter, and a flashing red light could be seen faintly inside.

Lude heard from Hamilton before that the dragon's blood is the nourishing holy product that all magicians dream of. Not only is it the best recovery medicine, a small sip can fill up the "blue bar", and long-term use can effectively improve the health of the body. Personal magical aptitude makes ordinary people become magicians.

Fortunately, Lu De is not a greedy person, so he just casually said to Xionglong, "Your wife has a big heart", and then turned around to do other things.

After repairing the internal organs, Lu De was put down by the male dragon to rest for a while.The male dragon noticed that the female dragon's expression was obviously a little more relaxed than before, and understood that the treatment had worked, so his attitude towards Lude was slightly more kind than before.

"What should I do next?"

"Fill the hole in the stomach, and then set the bone, that is, break the broken bone and put it back. This process will be very painful, but if you don't do it, you will leave a disability. You have to help me with this. Your wife compares it with a little finger. My thighs are so thick that I can't move them by myself."

After a short rest, Lude got up and continued to work, but the whole treatment process started and stopped, and Lude did not dare to finish it in one go, because he was not sure how much divine power reserve Aina still had.But it can't be delayed for too long, lest the female dragon be too seriously injured and unable to hold on.

So the whole "surgery" was done from dawn to dusk, and Lude finally repaired the huge wound on the female dragon's abdomen.However, the female dragon is still very weak, and Lude's repair of its abdomen is also incomplete. The repaired wound has only a thin layer of thin skin, not even scales, giving people a sense of fragility that can be broken with a poke.

But in any case, Lu De's operation was very successful, and the female dragon has survived the most difficult period, and the next thing is to rest in peace.

At this time, in front of Lu De, the male dragon bit his forearm fiercely, and directly fed the big tonic dragon blood to the female dragon.

It was only then that Lude noticed that the male dragon already had many similar bite marks on its two arms. Obviously, the female dragon's ability to survive until now had a lot to do with its simple and crude blood transfusion.

"Are you really a dragon?"

Since it was getting late at this time, the female dragon did not say she was fully recovered, and there was obviously a damaged dragon egg that needed to be taken care of, so Lu De didn't ask the male dragon when to send her back, so she stayed for the night with peace of mind. .

After going through a series of incidents during the day, the man and the dragon were not acquainted with each other, and his beloved wife's turn from danger made the male dragon, who was once in a state of rage, no longer be agitated.

So Lude officially introduced himself to the other party, and at the same time finally learned the name of the male dragon in front of him-"Nidhogg, Son of the Storm Queen"!

End of this chapter

In the empty cave, Nidhogg used his dragon's breath to ignite a pile of huge coals dug from nowhere, bringing warmth and brightness to the cave with the blazing flames.

Lude had successfully healed the injured female black dragon before, but when he turned his head to look at the broken dragon egg, he was shocked to find that the divine spell could no longer be used.This shows that Aina in his hometown has been completely hollowed out by him, and I am afraid that there is not even a drop of divine power left at the moment.

Fortunately, Ned Hogg knew a little about human priests. Luther's continuous use of divine magic had already surprised him, but now he finally couldn't use it. In his opinion, it was a normal phenomenon.

So Ned Hogg didn't force Luther to continue the treatment, but let him rest for one night first.Dragons are very strong creatures, and he believes that his child will not die easily because of a few cracks in the eggshell.

Sitting by the fire, Lude took out the dry food he brought, heated it briefly, and then cooked a meal with the cold water in the kettle.

At this moment, Ned Hogg came back from the outside with a huge wild boar, directly tore off a pig leg with brute force, and handed it to Lude.It was only then that Lu De realized that the other party just went out without saying a word, and was looking for food.

"If you want to eat, you can bake it yourself. I can't do too delicate work."

"Thank you."

Looking at this pork leg that was almost as tall as himself, Lu Dexin said that this dragon is quite righteous, but it's a pity that he just finished eating, but he didn't have any knives and seasonings at hand, I'm afraid it would be difficult to handle such a big piece of meat .

So Lude explained a little bit, and Ned Hogg was not pretentious. He put the pork leg distributed to Lude aside, and gnawed hard on the live pig in his hand. The appearance of eating can be said to be quite sturdy.

Let alone a giant wild boar of seven or eight hundred catties, for an adult male black dragon with a body length of nearly 30 meters and a weight of [-] tons, it is barely enough to eat a meal. clean.After eating the meat, the black dragon then took two stones off the wall, put them in his mouth and chewed them, as if he was eating calcium tablets.

"I can't see it! You are quite nutritious and healthy, do you supplement trace elements?"

"Human, I don't understand what you're talking about."

After gnawing four stones in a row, Nid Hogg went out for another round, and when he came back, the blood and ash on his body from eating meat and gnawing on stones were gone, and the wet scales were still dripping. water.

Lu De, who witnessed the whole process of the other party's meal, thought that his hygienic habits are good enough, even many humans don't pay attention to washing hands after meals!

Ned Hogg, who had dinner, was not idle afterward, busy back and forth in the cave lightly.He first replaced the wounded female dragon with a clean haystack, and then moved stones around to repair the bumpy ground in the cave, just like a husband doing housework.

The more Lude looked at it, the more puzzled he became. Although he didn't know much about giant dragons, he also knew that the dragon race was a highly intelligent race with an intelligence level no lower than that of humans, but what do you think of this Ned Hogg with a strange prefix in front of his name? They should all be different from the Dragon Clan.

With this kind of doubt, Lude observed silently at the side. It was not until the big guy finished his work and returned to rest by the fire that Lude asked cautiously.

"Who did you learn these habits from?"

Seeing Lu De suddenly asking himself, Ned Hogg was silent for a moment, and he didn't seem to like the awkward silence atmosphere, so he lay down next to the sleeping female dragon, covered his partner with one wing, and then used Said in a very small voice.

"I...was raised by humans..."

As soon as Nid Hogg opened his mouth, he blew up a big news. Seeing Lude's shocked expression, this guy instantly changed from a high-cold Xionglong before to a man who desperately needed communication to relieve his mental stress because of the heavy burden on his family. of middle-aged married men.

That sentimental look reminded Lude of a colleague in his previous life, who had been like this since he had a son.

Nidhogg is almost 35 years old this year, which is equivalent to about [-] years old in human years. He is in the prime of life, and his partner is a female dragon who has just turned [-] years old, which is equivalent to ten years old in human years. Six or seven years old is not yet a full adult.

When Lu De heard this, he thought that it was JK! ?

When Nidhogg was young, before the battle of the gods broke out, it was a very glorious era, and the development of mortal civilization was at its peak.At that time, the number of dragons was much larger than now, but they were not united internally, and each branch was hostile to each other.

Ned Hogg didn't know who his father was, but his mother died in the battle with two green dragons before he broke his shell, so little Ned Hogg saw this world for the first time , is the mother who died tragically next to the nest to protect herself.

Fortunately, the little Ned Hogg was soon discovered by a team of human cavalry who came to inquire, and then presented it to the royal family as a rare bird.

In the next 200 years, Nidhogg lived with human beings. Although the royal family of that country would occasionally draw blood and scales from him as experimental materials, they generally treated him very generously, and planned to use Nidhogg as an experimental material. It can be cultivated into a national beast, a strategic biological weapon.

However, something unexpected happened, and the battle of the gods broke out!Nidhogg's country was quickly involved in this religious war, and fell into civil strife due to multi-denominational disputes.The Queen of Storms who ruled the country at that time was assassinated because she repeatedly used iron fists to camp against the domestic sects, and was backstabbed by her nephew who had been raised as the heir.

During the turmoil, Nidhogg, who was two hundred years old at the time and possessed impressive combat prowess, protected the seriously injured queen and fled the capital.Before dying, the queen untied the magic shackles that had been binding Ned Hogg, and returned her freedom to the only big friend who had not betrayed her.

In the following 300 years, Ned Hogg, who had regained his freedom, traveled to many places, and finally settled in the Void Forest, where he met his current partner, a very lively and lovely female black dragon.

Because of the painful experience in childhood, Nidhogg's character is completely unlike his wild counterparts who can't control the lower body. He is very loyal to his partner, especially after learning that the female dragon is pregnant, he even imitated him. The appearance of the human father I saw back then, he took good care of his partner.

If it hadn't been for the "egg stealing incident", Ned Hogg would not have gone crazy and attacked human villages everywhere. Instead, he would be busy taking care of his wife and children every day, waiting with great anticipation for the day he would become a father.

End of this chapter

Stayed in the dragon's nest for one night, and early the next morning, Lude got up and stretched his muscles.He first checked the female dragon, and the repaired wounds were in good condition. The original film-like skin was much darker, and some new dragon scales could be seen on the edges.

While Lude was checking his injuries, Ned Hogan, who was lying on the side of the female dragon, opened his eyes and looked at Lude, but he didn't get up. A preliminary relationship of trust had been established between the two parties.

After watching the female dragon, Lu De turned to the dragon egg again.The two undamaged eggs are healthy and warm to the touch. Even if you don’t put your ears on the eggshells, you can still hear the powerful heartbeat inside. Even Lude knocked the eggshell twice outside, and the inside The young dragons will respond with very childish calls.Looks very lively.

In contrast, the situation is not so optimistic for the one with broken eggshell.The temperature is obviously lower than the other two. You need to put your ears on the eggshell to listen carefully to hear the heartbeat, and there is no response when you knock on the eggshell. The young dragon inside may be quite weak.

At this time, Nid Hogg came over, looked down at the dragon egg, and asked in a small voice that did not match his huge body.

"How is the child?"

"It's a little weak, let me try to use magic to repair the eggshell first."

As Lude said, he pressed his hand to the crack of the eggshell.After replying all night, Aina has accumulated some divine power.But after working hard for a long time, Lude couldn't help frowning, because his magic didn't work on eggshells.

what's the situation?Could it be that eggshells are not living things?

Seeing that the eggshell could not be repaired, Lude used the probing technique again, and the golden tentacles of divine power could not penetrate the eggshell, but could only penetrate through the cracked gap.

Through inspection, Lu De found that the situation inside the eggshell was more serious than he had imagined before. A lot of embryonic fluid inside had leaked out, and the young dragon's development was not yet complete, and the curled up appearance seemed a little cold.

Lude immediately reported this situation to Nid Hogg, and there was obvious concern in Xionglong's eyes.

"Human, what can you do?"
