Chapter 385: The God of Orcs Completely Resurrected!

What did you understand?

Hearing Fen Yege's words, the group looked at one another.

Facing everyone's gaze, Fen Yege spoke his thoughts at a rapid pace.

He pointed his finger at the ice crystal in the center of the stone disk: "See this thing? If I'm not mistaken, this is very likely the legendary rare material that forms within an Elemental Dragon—a Dragon Jade."

"Is it something similar to the Magic Stone inside a Monster?" Yun Mu interjected at this moment.

"No." Fen Yege shook his head: "A Magic Stone is a core used by a Monster to store Elements, but a Dragon Jade is different; in fact, a Dragon Jade is completely useless to an Elemental Dragon."

"Because an Elemental Dragon can let Elements flow into every corner of its body, and a Dragon Jade is simply a crystal formed after the Elements have flowed for years and years, eventually piling up together."

"The older the dragon, the more likely it is to produce this kind of Dragon Jade, and to an Elemental Dragon, this thing is just like a blood clot in you humans; once it forms, it causes the flow of Elements to become blocked. The larger the Dragon Jade, the more painful this effect becomes."

"So, generally speaking, an Elemental Dragon will try to find a way to remove the accumulated Dragon Jade from its body, and this elemental crystal, containing the power of a great dragon, is the top-tier Supernatural material for other creatures."

Blood, a blood clot? Yun Mu had to admit that Fen Yege's description was very vivid, but she really hadn't expected the formation of this Dragon Jade to be so subtle.

This made the excitement she had felt upon first hearing the name Dragon Jade feel as if it had been extinguished by boiling water.

It was clearly very hot, yet it could no longer burn.

And besides a blood clot, this thing could perhaps also be called... a dragon's kidney stone? Well, forgive Yun Mu for thinking of such an impolite term, but the Elemental Dragons wouldn't know anyway, so it didn't really matter.

Meanwhile, while Yun Mu was letting her imagination run wild, Lucy and Fen Yege had already begun to converse.

"So, this Dragon Jade acts as the energy source for this stone disk?" Lucy said, looking at the stone disk embedded with the Dragon Jade.

"Correct." Fen Yege nodded affirmatively, and he pointed his hand at the Dragon Language on the stone disk: "I don't know what this great dragon encountered before it died, but one thing is certain: it must have been a Master of Dragon Language Magic."

"Ahem." Fen Yege cleared his throat and continued: "As I said before, compared to Elf spells, Dragon Language Magic is more powerful, but it is difficult to control."

"But here!" Fen Yege's tone was somewhat excited: "It improved some of the writing of the Dragon Language, and at the same time used some extra characters to limit the output of the Elements. Although it is a bit crude, it can achieve the desired effect very well."

"This Dragon Egg is alive; it's just that all of its vitality has been 'frozen,' which is why I couldn't accurately determine if it was dead or alive."

"And once the Dragon Egg is removed, the Dragon Egg—which was viewed as a whole and existed as an elemental block—will be gone, and the operation of the entire stone disk will terminate. Likewise, the space constructed by the stone disk will collapse."

"It is precisely by using this method that this Dragon Egg could remain here, immortal through twenty thousand years of time, and even still have a chance to be hatched!"

"And the Magic Storm shrouding this place must be the result of the Elements within the Elemental Dragon dissipating after its death."

"Ha." Fen Yege looked at Yun Mu with a meaningful gaze: "What incredible Lucky fortune; a Dragon Egg that no one had discovered for over twenty thousand years was actually excavated so easily."

Yun Mu could tell there was more to his words, but she wasn't very clear on what exactly he wanted to express.

But unfortunately, Fen Yege didn't seem to have any intention of explaining.

Was he really unaware of the situation here?

Yun Mu remained skeptical about this for the time being.

"Did that Snow Monster Lord never discover this place?" Yun Mu recalled the guy they had encountered earlier. If it lived in this region year-round, wouldn't it have discovered something hidden in the ice? Furthermore, this place wasn't very deep from the outside; one only needed to dig a few meters to find it.

"Perhaps it discovered it long ago, but was wary of the residual dragon might here. Besides..." Fen Yege paused and continued: "Even a Snow Monster Lord wouldn't be interested in bones that have no meat on them."

"Unless one digs deep inside, no one could discover the Dragon Egg hidden within the skeleton. As for humans, if I hadn't used Weakness on the snowstorm here, ordinary people would never be able to walk into this storm."

"To still have such scale after twenty thousand years... it's hard to imagine the strength of this great dragon while it was alive."

After a casual remark, Fen Yege looked at Yun Mu and Lucy: "Let's leave after collecting some useful materials. Hmm... I'll go find a way to hatch the Dragon Egg later."

"Does hatching a Dragon Egg require a specific method?" Yun Mu blinked in confusion; she had thought that as long as she brought it onto the ship, it would hatch naturally after a few months.

Hearing this, Fen Yege was momentarily speechless. He said: "Even hatching a chick requires specific conditions, let alone a great dragon?"

"However..." He touched his chin thoughtfully: "A great dragon's vitality is tenacious; perhaps it really doesn't need special care to come out on its own."

"Better be serious about it." Lucy smiled softly and looked at Yun Mu: "If it doesn't hatch in the end, you'll be the one crying."

"Mm... I'll be serious." Yun Mu nodded while holding the Dragon Egg.

The group lingered here for a while, mainly to perform Cutting on the great dragon's skeleton. Don't misunderstand; they didn't intend to take it all, just the parts with the best texture.

As for the rest, let it stay there.

Rumble... After Fen Yege withdrew his spell, the already precarious cave collapsed instantly.

The skeleton of that Elemental Dragon was thus buried in an ice mountain known to no one.

Hearing the sound of the cave collapsing, Yun Mu couldn't help but feel a bit emotional.

Even such a powerful great dragon would eventually have a day when it died... when would her day be?

"Hmm?" Yun Mu raised an eyebrow.

She didn't know if it was an illusion, but she had just felt a trace of life beating within the Dragon Egg.

But it was only for an instant, and then this feeling dissipated.

She asked Fen Yege about it, and he told her it was just her overthinking.

Because within this Dragon Egg, life hadn't developed yet; it was just a lump of egg yolk and egg white.

Speaking of egg yolk and egg white, she wasn't hungry! Ahem, she suddenly thought of a question.

"The Dragon Egg shouldn't have any problems during Trans-dimensional Teleportation, right?" Yun Mu asked Fen Yege. During teleportation, there was a sensation of spatial displacement, accompanied by violent shocks; if one wasn't sitting in a chair, it was very likely one would fall over.

If the yolk inside the Dragon Egg scattered into the white because of the violent shaking, wouldn't she have to eat it while crying?

"This is a Dragon Egg; how could it have problems so easily?" Hearing her worry, Fen Yege was somewhat speechless.

"Being careful never hurts, right?" Yun Mu pouted.

"Fine." After thinking about it, Fen Yege felt what she said made sense: "When we teleport later, I will use a spell to protect this Dragon Egg."

"That should be fine, right?" he said.

"That's barely—ahem, I mean, let's do that then." Yun Mu, who had almost let it slip, hurriedly changed her words.

The group returned to the Shanyin Cruise Ship, and after the Trans-dimensional Engine finished cooling down, they activated the Trans-dimensional Teleportation again.

The target was—underground at the Joy Company! Hum! Accompanied by the roar of the engine starting, the massive ship vanished instantly.

And after Fen Yege left, the snowstorm shrouding this mountain range returned to its usual state.

A sturdy figure, its fur scorched black, looked suspiciously in the direction where the Shanyin Cruise Ship had vanished, then let out a Roar toward the sky, disappeared into the snow, and was soon nowhere to be seen.

"Ah, I'm back!"

As the teleportation finished, Yun Mu couldn't wait to walk off the Shanyin Cruise Ship while holding the Dragon Egg.

The area near the Command Center looked the same as when she left, and as for the scene inside Feiluoka City, well, there wasn't much difference either.

It had simply changed from ruins into even more dilapidated ruins.

Through the Command Center screen, Yun Mu looked at the Scarlet Spine that was wiping out wave after wave of Shanyin Mechanical Body, feeling moved that this guy was truly resistant to a beating.

So much time had passed, yet there wasn't the slightest sign of fatigue.

But it was also thanks to it drawing the fire of the Old Legion; otherwise, who knows what the situation inside Feiluoka would be like.

"Only the last piece of God Bone remains."

Opening the map, Yun Mu looked in the direction of the last squad of mechanical bodies.

The speed was a bit faster than expected; in about eight hours or so, that mechanical body squad that set off along the highway would be able to return.

Before then, she just needed to wait patiently.

And just as Yun Mu returned to Feiluoka, the Bishop of the Beast God Cult, the man currently controlling the right arm from within the spine, was slightly stunned.

"This feeling of palpitation... is there a God Bone nearby?"

"And, there's more than one piece."

The Bishop was first a bit puzzled, then became excited.

He had originally been distressed by the stalemate with the Old Legion; after all, although he was hard to kill, the number of mechanical bodies in the Old Legion was near infinite, and no matter how he destroyed those mechanical bodies, new ones would always replenish them.

Although he really wanted to escape, it was a pity that he only had the spine and the right arm and lacked the ability to move, and his target was too massive to hide at all.

Thinking of this, the Bishop felt a bit angry again.

He didn't know why those mechanical bodies were specifically targeting his Beast God Cult; if there had been any other way, he wouldn't have wanted to summon this half-finished God Bone.

Although he had thought of many ways to escape in his mind, none of them seemed very reliable.

He had originally planned that if it really didn't work out, he would leave the God Bone as bait and run away.

After all, if the God Bone was lost, he could find it again, but if he died, then no one would be able to carry out the plan for the Resurrection of the Beast God.

But now... perhaps there would be a turning point.

Although he didn't know exactly where those God Bones were, or why they would appear at this time.

But as long as the Beast God could be resurrected, any conspiracy or scheme would be meaningless in the face of absolute power.

As for the God Bone possibly being tampered with? A joke; he knew better than anyone what that thing coiled around the God Bone was.

If there really were any tricks, they would be eroded away completely.

Therefore, before the Bishop could decide on his current goal, a familiar whistling sound came from the sky once again.

"Damn it!"

It was that mechanical body attack called 【Heavenly Punishment】 again; every time he took it head-on, it consumed a portion of the Blood Energy stored within the God Bone.

Didn't he have the followers active in other regions come over? Why was there still no movement... he needed those guys to replenish his Blood Energy.

Could they have been blocked by the Old Legion? Damn it.

The expression on the Bishop's face was uncertain; having finally encountered a chance to collect all the God Bones, he didn't want to give up just like that.

Patience, he had to have patience.

He repeatedly warned himself this way.
