Chapter 387

[Albedo]: Monkeys evolving into humans? Hmm... it’s not impossible, but without external forces, I’m afraid this would take millions of years... If we add the variable of the Primordial Blood, then the intermediate process could likely be skipped.

[Shikanoin Heizou]: Perhaps one day, a monkey suddenly came into contact with the golden blood by accident and began to evolve into a human?

[Sucrose]: That possibility doesn't seem very high; the golden blood on the surface has already finished evolving.

[Nilou]: The topic is gradually becoming high-end. (Paimon: Surprised)

[Collei]: I don't understand, but it doesn't matter; I have already started waiting for Mr. Gu Chen to be resurrected. (Klee: Yay)

Dragons can speak.

Few people understand the language of dragons.

Fortunately, there are subtitles on the video.

This world has already become a paradise for dragons.

As time passed, more and more species appeared, and the main race of this world was born—the dragons.

From the exchanges between the elemental Dragon Sovereigns, it can be learned that they believe: the bloodline of Nibelungen, who was born first, is closer to the Dragon Ancestor; the other Dragon Sovereigns are secondary; and finally, those dragons with impure bloodlines and strange appearances come last.

These dragons only share a name with dragons.

Although their bloodlines are mixed, fortunately, they were not looked down upon by Nibelungen and the seven elemental Dragon Sovereigns.

[Apep]: No, I look down on them, I just didn't say it. (Furina: Happy)

[Azhdaha]: What kind of talk is that? What kind of talk is that! (Annoyed)

[Dvalin]: What, you're kicking me out of the dragon registry just because I don't look like one! (Annoyed)

[Azhdaha]: You tell me, why didn't Morax carve me to look more handsome back then! (Annoyed)

[Dvalin]: ...

[Seeing Seeing Seeing Seeing Seeing Zhongli]: There is no need to pin this blame on me; it is mainly because you are too fat. (Shrugs)

The world remained peaceful.

On this day.

Nibelungen looked up at the starry sky.

There was some palpitation in its heart. After considering it for a long time, it finally spoke: "I want to go find the traces of the Ancestor."

The seven Dragon Sovereigns did not object; they were full of anticipation for this.

Nibelungen left this world.

It roamed through the starry sky.

It saw the brilliant sea of stars, it saw the raging sun, and it saw withered bones drifting unconsciously in the starry sky.

It moved further and further away from its original world.

It saw a waterfall in the galaxy.

That was gold flowing; that was power collapsing.

Such grandeur and magnificence moved Nibelungen.

That power was too vast; it dared not approach. It only paid its respects from afar, and after gazing for a long time, it roamed toward the distance.

It saw too many traces of the Ancestor.

This void, which had nothing, was adorned so brilliantly by the disintegration of the supreme being.

The more this was the case, the more shocked and reverent Nibelungen became.

It is unknown how much time passed.

Nibelungen saw a withered bone wrapped in red gas.

That red made Nibelungen frown; it gave it a very ominous feeling.

But at the same time, Nibelungen felt the call of that ominous red toward it.

It was calling.

It was bewitching.

It was consciously promising it power.

Nibelungen shook its head. It felt something was very wrong, so it simply turned and left.

It is unknown how far it had traveled away, but when Nibelungen looked back again, it discovered more withered bones wrapped in the ominous red.

These withered bones were drifting in the universe, and when they touched stars, drastic changes occurred.

The ominous power seemed to be invading the stars.

Some succeeded and wrapped around the stars.

Some failed and were evolved by the stars.

Others vanished in the explosions of the stars.

Nibelungen returned to the world of dragons.

It told the seven Dragon Sovereigns what it had seen and heard.

The outside world was all transformed by the great power of the 'Ancestor'.

The seven Dragon Sovereigns were shocked by this.

The dragons returned to their previous lives.

Until one day.

Nibelungen looked up and saw a white light falling toward the world in the night sky.

Its fall triggered terrifying fluctuations of power.

It was an egg.

Before Nibelungen could investigate, the egg had already cracked open.

A creature with wings, wearing a crown, and whose gender could not be distinguished, walked out from it.

[Shikanoin Heizou]: This is that Primordial One, Phanes, right? According to the records in the Enkanomiya collection, they are about to start fighting, right? (Scratches head)

[Kaeya]: I don't understand.

[Azhdaha]: I have a question. Since the entire universe appeared after the fall of the Cult Leader, what does that make Phanes? He doesn't look like a local of Teyvat; did he come from another universe? But he doesn't look that impressive either... (Azhdaha: Scratches head)

[Albedo]: Let's analyze it a bit; so Phanes and the Cult Leader also have a deep connection?

[Thoma]: Then can this be seen as... children fighting among themselves to seize their father's authority? (Thoma: Scared)

[Nilou]: Hmm! This feeling is so familiar!

[Charlotte]: This is earth-shattering news! (Paimon: Surprised)

[The Sustainer of Heavenly Principles]: Your line of thinking is somewhat heaven-defying...

[His Highness the Prince]: Never mind! In short, some people are jealous that the Dragon Sovereigns look like the Dragon Ancestor, so they want to get rid of the Dragon Sovereigns. (Funny)

[Enjou]: Although it's a bit of a forced smear... ah, don't hit me, I mean the truth might actually be like this. (Nods)

[Kaeya]: Blink if you're being threatened. (Funny)

[Albedo]: Wait, Phanes has started creating humans!

An unknown existence descended upon this world.

He created four glowing shadows.

He created humans.

He used his own eggshell to isolate the world from the universe.

This aroused the anger of the Dragon Sovereigns.

The Dragon Sovereigns could not understand his actions, and a great war broke out at this moment.

Nibelungen led the dragons to expel him, and he, along with his four shadows, engaged in a great war with the Dragon Sovereigns.

The sky was collapsing, and the earth was crumbling.

[Kaeya]: The records in the Enkanomiya collection probably say they fought for forty years... It's even more terrifying here; it's impossible to record the duration of this great war.

[Azhdaha]: The Pyro Dragon Sovereign has been suppressed to the bottom of the sea and cannot turn over. (Sighs)

[Yanfei]: No, I don't understand; why did Phanes have a conflict with the Dragon Sovereigns as soon as he arrived? Logically speaking, the Dragon Sovereigns are the masters and original inhabitants of this world!

[Focalors]: So, according to justice, the Primordial One seized everything that belonged to the Dragon Sovereigns... But then again, this world cannot be viewed through the lens of justice; in the end, it depends on whose fist is bigger and whose power is stronger. (Holds face in a daze)

[Tartaglia]: Hehe! (Tartaglia: If you're bad, practice more)

I don't know how many years passed.

The Dragon Sovereigns were defeated.

Even if they were unwilling, they had to recognize this fact.

Carrying humiliation and anger, they had to bow their heads to the sky.

Nibelungen could not accept such an ending.
