Do you believe me when I say I’m not a dragon?

Is it because of time?No, Mercer sensed the condition of his body and knew that it was factors from the outside world.

Mercer raised his head and looked not far away.

In front of it, there is a magnificent building blocking it.

——Among the floating islands, its height may not be the highest, but its style is incompatible with the rest: it has a regular rectangular shape made of steel, a complicated entrance and exit gate, and a three-person-high door to isolate outsiders. High walls.

More importantly, because of the dense clouds, the surrounding environment is extremely dark, but this building always emits a stable light.

"...The center of the floating island is the energy storage room for the entire island..."

For no reason, the words of the huntress rang in Mercer's heart. He knew it clearly, gritted his teeth and rushed towards the building.

Since it is the energy storage room of the entire floating island, it must have its special characteristics.

boom--

A large opening opened in the metal building. Mercer propped up his damaged and weak body and rummaged violently for something inside.

In the building, the shivering people hiding inside screamed and ran away after seeing Mercer. Of course, some of their bodies were crushed by the ruins destroyed by Mercer, but Mercer had no time to care about that much.

At the same time, red lights and sirens were activated throughout the building. Mercer destroyed the surrounding walls and continued to explore deeper.

——Finally, Mercer saw the source of white light in the deepest part. Behind the layers of transparent glass, a cylindrical object with multiple rings stood in it.

Chapter 119: The beginning of transformation

"Warning! Warning! The base has been damaged. Please stop the saboteurs immediately and ask the guards to stop the damage! Warning! Warning!"

There was a mechanical sound in the building. Mercer felt that his tearing was relieved in the light of this column, and he climbed forward without hesitation.

"Warning! Warning! The third level of protection is activated, the protective door is activated, and irrelevant personnel are asked to evacuate immediately!"

Mercer couldn't understand the words coming from the corner, but judging from the changes around him, he knew what kind of protective system was working.

Beside Mercer and the aisle, thick metal plates began to close together, and the radiant column was obscured by the merged baffles in front of Mercer's eyes.

Mercer let out a low roar, grabbed the metal door that was gradually closing around him, and continued to approach.

His forelimbs resisted the metal door beside him, and finally, his head entered the room where the cylinder was stored.

Mercer tried his best to lengthen his neck, opened his mouth, and bit the column in front of him——

blah-

At the moment when the teeth pierced the shell of the cylinder, the surrounding light dimmed instantly. Not only that, all the people on the floating island were horrified to discover that all items connected to the floating island's energy were lost at this moment. played a role.

On this floating island, the only thing that still shines is the column in front of Mercer... and Mercer himself.

boom!

Mercer only felt a roar in his brain, and the objects in the cylinder poured into his body from his mouth, but did not pass through his stomach at all, and filled his whole body directly.

Not a liquid, not a gas, not a solid!The material in this cylinder, or the material pouring into Mercer's body, is strange energy that Mercer cannot understand!

The energy carrying the entire floating island poured into Mercer's body at this moment. At that moment, Mercer felt that every organ in his body began to expand, like a balloon that was constantly inflating and would not escape the fate of bursting!

"What the hell is this?!"

Mercer's whole body, mouth, nose and eyes were most obvious, emitting a wild and disorderly light, as if his body would explode completely in the next second!

"Roar--"

He finally couldn't help it anymore and subconsciously opened his mouth to release a large amount of light in his body. At that moment, a beam of light penetrated the ceiling and swept across the huge floating island!

No one was not attracted by this movement. Even the giant dragon not far away shifted its gaze and stared at Mercer. A hint of surprise finally appeared in Gujing Wubo's eyes.

At the same time, as if sensing the gaze of the giant dragon, Mercer also turned his head, and the dazzling beam of light from his mouth swept across the sky, and finally vented it on Him without reservation.

That light was incomparable to even the flashing thunder and lightning in the sky.

This breath ray lasted for an unknown amount of time. When the light in Mercer's mouth dimmed, the damaged internal organs could even be seen from the mouth.

He closed his mouth, and his body swayed twice as if he had lost his soul. In the end, he barely managed to fall down. At this moment, a large amount of smoke came out of his body, like an overheated turret being continuously activated.

Mercer couldn't even feel the pain now, and all the nerves in his body seemed to have died under this blow.

He raised his head and looked in the direction of the dragon.

Immediately, a feeling of despair came over me.

Under that blow, the giant dragon just fell to the ground, the light on its body was slightly dim, and it looked embarrassed with some black smoke all over its body. Mercer couldn't even see any injured parts on his body.

However, Mercer saw the anger of being insulted in His eyes.

The giant dragon raised its head and let out a long roar——

"hold head high--"

The distant and ancient sound resounded across the sky, and the sound echoed repeatedly in the vast sky, as if the entire sky was responding to it!

Then, dark clouds gathered, and the sky became so dark that one could not see his fingers. Only the purple lightning that flickered from time to time became the only light.

Then, in His mouth, thunder and lightning began to gather.

Seeing this scene, Mercer's pupils narrowed and he wanted to escape from here.However, the body now doesn't listen to its own control at all, it just follows the instinct of fear.

"Move! Move!"

Mercer roared in his heart, watching the purple light in the dragon's mouth getting stronger and stronger.

I don't know whether he overcame his fear at the last moment, or whether [Idealism] came into play. When the purple light was extremely bright, Mercer finally moved his body.

boom--

hum...

His body was wiped by the purple light, but only the aftermath was enough to send him flying away. His body flew upside down on the building on the huge floating island, leaving only a large area of ​​collapsed building.

In the direction hit by the dragon's purple light, there was only a straight line that melted and emitted red light, and all obstacles in the path of the purple light were reduced to ashes.

Looking at the direction in which Mercer flew backwards, purple lightning began to wrap around the giant dragon. He spread his wings, and two pairs of huge dragon wings extended from his back. He flew up and came directly to the sky above Mercer, folded his four wings and stood again. In the air.

At this time, Mercer fell in the ruins, his body no longer moving at all, and his whole body was almost turned into black charcoal, emitting a lot of thick smoke.

The most eye-catching thing was that a dragon horn on his head broke off under the blow and landed somewhere unknown.

But the dragon did not let him go because of this. Purple electricity filled the air again, and he opened his mouth again...

"Wow!"

——At this moment, a sharp sound sounded from the horizon. The unexpected change made the giant dragon raise its head, and only saw a bright fire in the dark clouds, hitting the dragon and Mercer like a meteorite. forward.

A fire phoenix with brilliant feathers stood in front of the giant dragon, letting out a menacing cry without fear, while spreading its wings to block Mercer behind it.

Looking at the arrogant fire phoenix in front of him, the giant dragon was silent for a moment, and finally closed his mouth. At this moment, all the purple lightning around him dissipated, and the suffocating atmosphere eased a little.

He glanced in the direction of the volcano, then looked at the fire phoenix, and let out a quiet growl, which seemed to be a greeting.

However, in the face of his low roar, Huo Feng was not polite at all and continued to cry in an almost arrogant manner.

However, judging from the exploding feathers, the fire phoenix did not relax its vigilance at all against the giant dragon in front of it.

Human helplessness flashed through the giant dragon's eyes, but he didn't care either. Instead, he looked at the wings of the fire phoenix, as if he saw the silent Mercer through it.

He roared again, but this time the answer was the impatient cry of the fire phoenix.

The atmosphere between the two became solemn, and after a long silence, the dragon spread its wings and flew into the dark clouds.

The dark clouds began to thin from that moment on. After a blink of an eye, the dense dark clouds in the sky seemed to have become an illusion. At this moment, the sky was still blue.

The fire phoenix also turned around proudly, staring at the black dragon in front of her. She grabbed the black dragon with her sharp claws and lifted him up to fly away from here.

Chapter 1: Huang Zhoulong

ta ta ta ......

Floating Island No. [-], inside the Institute of Ecology.

Black and shiny leather shoes stepped on the smooth floor. A middle-aged man came to the door of a large door. Behind him was a row of scholars who were stopped by two guards.

"Ahead is the large library. No one is allowed to enter without permission."

Hearing this, the middle-aged man took out a card from his arms and handed it to a guard.

After repeatedly checking the card, the guard returned it to the middle-aged man, with an added layer of respect in his words.

"Sorry, you have the highest authority in the big library for one year. You can browse any content at will."

The middle-aged man nodded and entered, but when the scholars behind him tried to go forward, they were politely stopped by the guards.

"Sorry, this permission is only for one person, please..."

Before he finished speaking, the guard saw the group of scholars taking out cards that were exactly the same as the middle-aged man.

Seeing this scene, the guard's expression froze.

......

The Great Library, where all records are stored, was established with the establishment of the first floating island. It records the changes and changes in countless biological environments on the earth. It is the temple in the hearts of all scholars, and even has the ability to smell the big library. It is said that the smell of books in the library can bring a smooth future.

However, in the large library, there is no smell of books, only the smell of preservatives and insecticides that is so strong that ordinary people cannot bear it.

In the endless large library, scholars scattered around, and then used carts to transport books one after another.

After a while, a mountain of books was piled around a round table.

...I don’t know how much time passed before the scholars gathered around the round table under the leadership of the middle-aged man and began to discuss:

"Three months ago, Floating Island No. [-] passed by the volcano. During a nearby mission to defeat the black dragon, the black dragon flew to the top of the floating island. At the same time, two natural disaster-level creatures appeared and completely destroyed Floating Island No. [-]. Destroyed. The name of the second one has been confirmed, and its scientific name is 'Phoenix'."

"The name of the first natural disaster is..."

When the scholars said this, they suddenly paused and looked around each other. Finally, one of them seemed to have given up and said:

"The name is: 'Huang Zhoulong'."

"..."

Hearing one person take the initiative to speak, the other scholars sighed slightly and read out the name.

"'The God of Thunder', 'The Punisher', 'The Natural Disaster that Devours the Sky'...these are all nicknames for the 'Huangzhou Dragon'."

"Except for this time, there are only three records of 'Huang Zhoulong' and the suspected 'Huang Zhoulong' appearing."

"The first record was three thousand and one hundred years ago. A recorder was recording the death of a natural disaster in the distance, but was affected by the energy released by the death of the natural disaster. The recorder had been Saying the words 'The four-winged dragon descended with the purple thunder and carried the aging natural disaster to the underworld', according to his notes, the Ecological Research Institute at that time confirmed the existence of the 'Huang Zhoulong' for the first time."

"The second record was 400 years ago, but it could not confirm the appearance of 'Huang Zhoulong' - at that time, the No. [-] floating island accidentally discovered that two natural disasters met in the ocean below. In order to To be on the safe side, we avoided this place, but later someone recorded: "The sudden flames reached to the clouds, accompanied by the sharp cold. The two temperatures did not give in, until the dark clouds gathered and purple lightning fell from the direction of the natural disaster." , the temperature returned to stability.'"

"The third record was recorded 800 years ago. A recorder discovered a group of strange people on the earth who worshiped totems. After he learned about it, the recorder's spirit appeared abnormal and he began to believe in the totem. , according to that totem, we can vaguely see information such as 'thunder', 'four-winged dragon', 'escaping giant snake', etc. According to another record, 300 years ago, there were constant earthquakes in that area, and There is also a record of a creature confirmed to be a natural disaster, and that natural disaster is a creature with a snake-like body."

The calm voices of the scholars sounded in the large library, and they continued:

"The information we can draw so far is: 'Huang Zhoulong' always appears accompanied by changes in natural disaster-level creatures, such as the death of natural disasters, battles between natural disasters... The third recorded giant After studying the snake at that time, it was found that it was in the molting stage and had a bad temper, which probably met the conditions for the emergence of 'Huangzhoulong'."

"From an in-depth analysis of this clue, we can roughly understand the position of 'Huangzhoulong' in the ecology - the 'arbiter', but it is the arbiter of natural disasters."

"From this identity, we can roughly understand the reason why the 'Huang Zhoulong' appeared here: before the catastrophe, the volcano was originally a base standing on the ground to study natural disasters, and a newly born natural disaster phoenix was bound in the base. ', but because the power of 'Phoenix' is too powerful, it can even directly change the landscape and turn this base into a volcano."

"In this volcano, there is a special material 'lava crystal'. It contains the power of the 'Phoenix'. After testing, if certain conditions are met, it will release a large amount of heat and explode. "

"From the descriptions of people present three months ago, we learned that the volcano erupted without warning, and there was an obvious muffled sound."

"——Based on the above information, we can know that the black dragon detonated the lava crystals inside the volcano and released the breath of the 'Phoenix', which first attracted the arrival of the 'Huang Zhoulong', and then the 'Phoenix' that left here also sensed I came here with my own breath.”

...The atmosphere was suddenly silent for a moment, and then there was a hint of sadness in the scholars' voices:

"During this period, because the energy of Floating Island No. [-] was destroyed by the black dragon, it was completely unable to fly and fell in the sky... Finally, the situation in Floating Island No. [-]... has changed. Invaded by the beasts of the earth, there were heavy casualties...Only a few people survived and managed to escape.”

"..."

When everyone said this, after a few minutes of silence, they raised their heads again, showing a calm and indifferent expression.

The middle-aged man at the head glanced at everyone. After pondering for a moment, he then asked:

"It is said that after the appearance of the 'Huang Zhoulong', the black dragon was directly identified as the enemy. Why is this?"

The scholars looked at each other, flipped through the books, and then replied:

"Perhaps, the identity of 'Huangzhoulong' is not just the arbiter of natural disasters. According to records, every move of each natural disaster will bring huge changes to the ecology. In severe cases, it can even cause plate movement, temperature disorders, typhoons and tsunamis, etc. ...Perhaps the reason why the 'Huang Zhoulong' always appears with natural disasters is to control ecological changes to a certain extent - and the reason why the 'Huang Zhoulong' is hostile to the black dragon is probably because of this."

"In other words, the existence of the black dragon will cause changes that even Huang Zhoulong cannot predict..."

The middle-aged man nodded thoughtfully and asked again:
