"Seconded!"

"Seconded!"

"Seconded!"

"..."

"Seconded..."

Accompanied by the Supreme Pontiff's opening, the group of Pontiffs present stopped discussing.

The white high hat on the Supreme Pontiff's head swayed slightly, and his gaze looked at Water Pontiff Xidinet, who was the moderator of this meeting.

He vaguely heard the hesitation in the other's final words.

"What's wrong, Xidinet? Is there anything else to add?" The Supreme Pontiff asked in a calm voice.

"No." Water Pontiff Xidinet shook his head, and a trace of imperceptible hesitation flashed on his earth-colored, withered face.

He actually had another piece of data about the "Fusion Potion" in his hand, but he felt it was not suitable to take it out now.

The "Fusion Potion" was of great importance.

He had not had contact with the young man who refined this potion, so he knew nothing about the other's personality, thoughts, and other aspects.

Water Pontiff Xidinet felt that it would not be too late to take out this data after the young man arrived at the Theocracy; perhaps he could judge some things from the other's reaction.

Now, taking it out at the meeting would only increase useless quarrels.

Suppressing the thoughts in his heart.

Water Pontiff Xidinet continued calmly, proceeding to the next topic: "According to current news, the 'Free Will' squad is staying in the Abelion Hills; we need to send personnel to the hills."

"Do you have any suitable personnel recommendations?"

Among the Pontiffs present, some also noticed the abnormality of Water Pontiff Xidinet, but had no intention of asking.

Since he didn't mention it, naturally Water Pontiff Xidinet had his own considerations; this group of old guys present all believed in the other's judgment.

"Currently, the only ones who have had contact with 'Free Will' are the 【Sunlight Scripture】 squad and Clementine."

"No, they caused major losses to the country; if they accept such an important task again, in case any mistakes occur..."

"It's not impossible."

"It is easier to close the distance by contacting familiar people; after all, both sides have experienced the disaster caused by the undead together."

"To atone for their crimes, the new captain of the 【Sunlight Scripture】 should complete this task with all his strength, and it can also test the other's ability."

"Clementine will be the last resort that is not necessary."

"..."

Middle Wind Month, May 1st.

Since the last time 【Lord of Holiness】 and 【Lord of Corruption】 were raised to max level, 7 days had passed.

It had also been almost a month since the end of the hill event.

Deep in the southern mountains of the hills.

The golden giant dragon lay on the ground, releasing Dragon Might at all times, making the entire valley deep, not even a trace of insect chirping could be hidden, quiet to the point of being eerie.

Tang Zheng stood beside the golden giant dragon, constantly circling the giant dragon's body for research, his eyes covered by light blue magic light, observing carefully.

"It's really getting more and more interesting."

Tang Zheng muttered to himself softly, observing the scales of some details of the giant dragon from time to time, or even swinging the magic greatsword to cut on the giant dragon's body, creating some wounds to observe.

After observing some details.

Tang Zheng pondered for a while, raised his arm, and waved at the open space on the side.

In an instant.

A dragon corpse of similar size appeared in the open space next to it; this was the corpse of the ancient fire dragon he had beheaded at the beginning.

Tang Zheng observed the corpse of this fire dragon together and compared it with the body of the golden giant dragon.

"Judging from the comparison results alone, the two are exactly the same."

"After the Dragonman Ladong transforms, it seems there is no difference from a real giant dragon; this is not an ordinary transformation at all, but more like it is a dragon itself, just restored to its original form."

Tang Zheng reached out and pressed on the corpse of the ancient red dragon, pondering, and with a thought in his heart, he put it back into the item box.

He himself mastered the magic that could transform into other beasts or monsters, which was the "Wild Transformation" of the 【Forest Priest】.

But although this kind of transformation was similar in appearance and possessed part of the abilities of the transformed monster or beast, the essence of the spellcaster did not change.

"A bit like 'Wild Transformation', no, it should be a more brilliant method."

Tang Zheng pondered.

The prerequisite for using the technique of "Wild Transformation" must be a magic caster of the faith system, and the Dragonman Ladong was entirely a profession construction of 【Monk】.

"This 【Heart of the True Long Wang】 can be called an alchemy magic item."

"Really."

"Just judging from the results, the transformation effect is perfect; why did the former Eight Greed Kings and Dragonman Ladong feel that this was a failed experiment."

"Just because it couldn't become stronger?"

Tang Zheng shook his head.

The purpose of the Eight Greed Kings was to want to obtain the power of "Origin Magic" by studying the corpses of True Dragon Kings.

And the Dragonman Ladong wanted to become stronger; neither side achieved their ultimate goal, so it could be called a failure.

"The situation of the Dragonman Ladong is a bit similar to the Witch Cuiye."

"One was stuck at level 50 after transforming with the help of the True Long Wang's heart, and one was stuck at level 28 with the help of the power of the Forest Sage King."

Tang Zheng chuckled like a complaint, and suddenly his gaze shook, thinking of something.

Level 28, level 50, these two levels.

For the races of the Other World, they are two bottlenecks of different difficulty, especially level 50, which seems to be a realm difficult to cross even for the Dragon race!

The Dragon race has a full 6 race levels!

Childhood 10lv, Youth 10lv, Young Adult 10lv, Elder 10lv, Elder 5lv, Ancient 5lv.

The race level alone reached 50lv; calculated according to the corresponding profession, 4 of the six race levels are Mid Rank professions, and two are High Rank professions.

With this level of race profession construction alone, it is no wonder that the Dragon race is the most powerful race in the Other World!

"So even among the Dragon race, those who can break through level 50 and possess the title of 'Long Wang' are very few."

"Whether it is the Ancient Fire Dragon, the Frost Long Wang, or even those Long Wang Councilors of the Council State, their levels are all below level 50."

Tang Zheng thought this way and suddenly felt that besides players, the situation where the Dragonman Ladong could not break through level 50 was very normal.

"If a Long Wang wants to master 'Origin Magic', the most basic condition is to exceed level 50, and then consider professions or something."

"By the way, what should the profession obtained by these Dragon Kings relying on their own breakthrough of the race limit of level 50 be?"

This question suddenly popped into Tang Zheng's mind, and then he shook his head, throwing this meaningless question to the back of his mind for the time being.

"Next experiment—"

Tang Zheng's gaze fell on the golden giant dragon: "Cancel transformation."

"Roar."

The golden giant dragon roared low, and his whole body began to collapse at a speed visible to the naked eye, and he restored to the Dragonman form in a few breaths.

Walked to the opponent calmly.

Tang Zheng waved his palm and hit the back of the Dragonman Ladong's neck heavily to knock him unconscious.

"Swish!"

Swing the magic greatsword at the opponent's chest.

Crack—hiss!

The scales on the chest were easily cut open, and blood sprayed out along the chest.

The intense pain made the Dragonman Ladong let out a groan of pain uncontrollably even in a coma.

Looking at the wound that kept flowing with blood.

Tang Zheng took out two bottles of regeneration potion, stuffed one into the opponent's mouth, and inserted one into the opponent's broken chest.

The Dragonman Ladong's physique was already powerful; even if his chest was cut open, it was not enough to endanger his life; the "Regeneration Potion" was mainly to prevent the opponent from losing too much blood.

Looking at the heart in the split chest, which was covered with silver spider-web patterns and had molten gold-like magic symbols flowing on the surface.

Tang Zheng reached out his palm with an expressionless face, reached into the opponent's chest, and held this heart gently.

"Hum—"

The Dragonman Ladong's body twitched a few times uncontrollably.

"Time 1 minute, conduct the 12th experiment."

Tang Zheng pressed the pocket watch hanging on his wrist, and the other hand carefully held the peculiar heart that was still beating.

Inject a trace of magic.

With a "Dong" sound.

The heart beat powerfully once.

"Relying solely on magic to drive it has no effect, and at the same time, I feel a very strong energy that repels magic."

"Since it is repulsion..."

This result was tested several times in a row, and it was basically determined; he planned to adopt a new method today, and the other hand probed into the void.

"Fusion Potion" appeared in his hand, and he opened the stopper of the medicine bottle with one hand.

Tang Zheng picked up the potion and prepared to pour it into his own mouth, but stopped the next moment; after pondering, he poured the "Fusion Potion" into the Dragonman Ladong's mouth.

Continue to inject magic!

The 【Heart of the True Long Wang】 suddenly released a force.

Hum—

A faint golden light wrapped Tang Zheng and the Dragonman Ladong.

Tang Zheng's pupils shrank suddenly.

"Roar!"

The huge figure of the golden giant dragon appeared again, roaring terrifyingly in place, while Tang Zheng disappeared together.

Abelion Hills.

Enri rode on the evil spirit dog and ran on the desolate wilderness.

Following Go-Jin and the "Beast General" Hekete Weishi during this time to clear out the residual undead in the hills allowed her to learn a lot of things.

"Xiao Hei, listening to the demi-human report, someone wants to find the captain; I don't know who it is."

Enri lay half on the back of the evil spirit dog, one hand grabbed the bone chain tightly, and the other hand gently supported the neck of the evil spirit dog, muttering in a low voice:

"I haven't seen the captain for a long time; I don't know what the captain is busy with."

"It should be a new potion; the captain likes to study potions very much."

"Oh woo." The evil spirit dog let out a low roar and responded.

The black figure ran in the desolate hills and arrived at the periphery; soon, Enri saw several humans confronting a demi-human squad.

Clementine wore a black cloak, hugged her chest with her hands, and swept across the several demi-humans staring at them not far away, with dangerous light flashing in the depths of her eyes.

"What are you planning?"

"An annoying uncertain situation."

A trace of dissatisfaction flashed on Clementine's cheeks; she had already prepared to defect completely at any time during this time.

As a result, that mysterious red-robed magic caster who killed the Alliance Leader had no movement all along, which did not mean it was a good thing.

The other party mastered the information that she colluded with 【Zuranon】; not using it now instead meant that the other party might be planning some kind of dangerous thing.

"Clementine-sama, our purpose this time is 'invitation'; before the final result is determined, please maintain restraint."

A tall silver-haired middle-aged man wearing the 【Sunlight Scripture】 captain uniform, black attire, and a silver short cloak spoke gently in a low voice.

This person was the new captain of the 【Sunlight Scripture】, Ian, who possessed the strength of command.

He had heard about Clementine's personality problems; this was the first mission after he took office as captain.

"Heh, you are as long-winded as the previous Nigen." Dangerous light rose in Clementine's purple pupils, and her tone was full of impatience.

Captain Ian smiled bitterly.

Thump!

Thump—

The movement of running fast approached both sides.

Enri rode the evil spirit dog and rushed from afar; after a brief negotiation with this demi-human squad, she easily arrived in front of Clementine and the others.

"Is it Clementine?"

Enri saw Clementine's familiar face at first glance; she had a deep impression of this woman who had a conflict with the captain.

Turned over and got off the evil spirit dog flexibly.

Enri raised her hand to tuck her chestnut-brown hair behind her ears, with clear muscle lines vaguely on her arms, and walked forward with big strides.

"Everyone from the Slane Theocracy?" Enri asked uncertainly.

"Hello, Enri, I am Ian, the captain of the 【Sunlight Scripture】."

Captain Ian had a gentle and brilliant smile on his face, took the lead to move forward and introduce himself, and at the same time sized up the powerful girl who was rumored to have killed the Soul-Eater with one sword.

En?

Completely different from the image imagined in his mind before.

I don't know if it's an illusion?

Captain Ian felt that the Enri in front of him seemed very weak, or was the rumor wrong?

"Ah, I remember the previous captain was Nigen-sama." Enri was a little surprised to hear the introduction: "Could it be..."

"Captain Nigen was seriously injured and is currently recuperating, so I took over as the new captain."

Ian explained simply; after all, he couldn't say that the original captain was revoked because of a serious mistake.

"So that's how it is." Enri was a little embarrassed; due to the rush to arrive and the hot weather, the sweat on her face dripped onto her collarbone:

"I also don't know the whereabouts of our captain for the time being."

"Is Tang-sama not in the hills?" Captain Ian was stunned.

If that team leader Tang was not in the hills, then things would become troublesome; I'm afraid the mission could not be completed in a short time.

"No, our captain likes to study various potions, and the hills are so big, it's difficult to find the captain at the first time." Enri explained.

"We have important things to see Tang-sama." Captain Ian relaxed in his heart and said softly with a smile.

"In that case, I will take you to Miss Cuiye first, and then find a way to notify the captain." Hearing that there was something important, Enri became serious immediately.

Clementine stood aside silently, observing Enri, and finally curled her lips.
