Chapter 300: Inside, There is a Spirit (The Book Has Reached One Million Words)
He can Dragon God Transform, but not Luo Ge Transform. However, essentially, both are Ultimate Transformation Arts. What exactly caused this difference?
Nai Ge Li Si was completely puzzled. He couldn't feel the fluctuations on the stone egg and couldn't understand what Ang described at all.
Leaving the Palace of Rest and projecting back into his own body, Nai Ge Li Si found Bu Lusike poking his head around, his spirit highly concentrated, and his vigilance very strong.
"What's wrong with you?" Nai Ge Li Si asked.
Bu Lusike said hesitantly: "I felt something, but I don't know what it is."
This is a very serious problem. The Dragon Clan Patriarch, the Truth Magic God, could actually feel that there was something but didn't know what it was. Something could evade his perception; this is a very scary thing. Who has this ability?
"When?" Nai Ge Li Si became vigilant.
"Just now, it disappeared now," Bu Lusike said.
Just now? Calculating the time, Nai Ge Li Si hesitated: Could it be because of the stone egg? Ang said there was a fluctuation. Could it be that this fluctuation caused it?
Can the fluctuations generated in the Palace of Rest be sensed from the outside? If this fluctuation is at the bloodline level, it is normal to sense it.
Thinking of this, Nai Ge Li Si said: "Are you the only one who felt it? Why don't you ask others if they felt anything."
Oh, right.
Bu Lusike realized, but before he could send out the bloodline call, the bloodline calls of other dragons came over. Bu Lusike listened for a while and said: "It seems all dragons and dragon descendants felt it. What's going on?"
Puzzled for a while, Bu Lusike suddenly thought of something and turned his head sharply to look at Nai Ge Li Si on his back.
Seeing Nai Ge Li Si smiling calmly, Bu Lusike asked in shock: "Was that really an egg? Did it hatch?"
Nai Ge Li Si said with a smile: "What egg? I didn't see anything. I just took away a stone."
Nai Ge Li Si flatly denied it. Bu Lusike suddenly realized, and this topic ended. Anyway, no matter who it is in the future, they will all say in unison that what was taken away was just a stone.
After landing on Black Crow Island, Bu Lusike pulled Nai Ge Li Si aside for some whispers, and the two seemed to have reached some kind of agreement.
Black Crow Island is an island that is thick at both ends and thin in the middle. The island has an area of several hundred square kilometers, with dense forests and rugged terrain.
In the bay where it is thin in the middle, surrounded by the island on both sides, it is safe, wind-sheltered, and highly secretive. There is also flat terrain. This place was reclaimed and became the lair of the Black Night Crow, with over a thousand people settling here.
However, the current settlement and farmland have been burned down. Some people in rags and with sallow complexions are picking up things of value in the ruins.
In the waterway of the bay, several snake-people with human bodies and snake tails swam onto the beach holding fish spears and the like, threw their catch on the ground, and shouted loudly: "Time to eat, time to eat! Big harvest today! Speared a tuna, come quickly and eat it while it's fresh."
The people in the ruins put on smiles and surged over. Those responsible for bleeding bled it, those responsible for cutting cut it, and those responsible for setting up the fire set it up. Some young and weak people weren't suitable for eating it raw, so roasting it would be better.
The leading snake-person squeezed a few times on the beach to make a pit. Water soon appeared in the pit. The snake-person coiled into the water pit to prevent being dried out and then asked: "How is the situation? Has the captain not returned yet?"
"Not yet," a middle-aged human said with worry: "I don't know if it's going smoothly, if they can buy grain. If they don't buy grain back, people on the island will starve to death."
The snake-person looked ashamed: "It's a pity that there are too few of us snake-people, and we can't catch enough fish, otherwise everyone wouldn't starve to death."
The middle-aged man hurriedly shook his head: "It's not your business. Don't think like that. You've already worked very hard lately. We humans can't just eat fish. You've already helped us a lot. Without the fish you caught, we would have starved to death long ago."
"It's what we should do," the snake-person said as a matter of course: "If Captain Black Crow hadn't saved us and allowed us to settle here, we would have been caught and taken to the land for exhibition long ago. The children are also very good to us. We are a family."
"Right, a family. Saying anything else is too polite. If it's really irredeemable, you must take care of yourselves first. After all, you can live well in this sea. If we starve to death in the end, that is the will of the Dragon God," the middle-aged man said with a calm smile.
Just as he finished speaking, a roar came from the sky: "Fart! What does it have to do with the Dragon God? The Dragon God is too lazy to care whether you live or die!"
The middle-aged man looked up and was so scared that his legs went soft, and he sat down on the ground. In the sky, a golden behemoth was falling at high speed, its eyes wide open. The roar just now came from it.
It's over, it's over. Speaking ill of the Dragon God behind his back was heard by a dragon. Now he's dead for sure.
Just as it was about to land, the golden dragon flapped its wings violently, and a gale rose on the ground, blowing all the people and snake-people nearby into a mess.
The middle-aged man shouted tremblingly: "I... I'm sorry, Lord Dragon God. It... it's my fault. I shouldn't have spoken ill of you. Please punish me. It has nothing to do with the others."
The golden dragon cursed: "The reputation of our Dragon Clan is ruined by these people. What will of the Dragon God, decree of the Dragon God—what does it have to do with us? How could the Dragon God be so idle?"
"Isn't it because you don't do good deeds? The ocean is so vast, and it's our sphere of influence, yet no one cares about the life or death of the people here. If I don't scold you, who do I scold? If you really want the Dragon God's reputation to be good, you should do more good deeds, send medicine, provide medical care. Only then will everyone remember the Dragon Clan's kindness. Maybe you can unify the faith and ignite another Dragon God's faith fire."
Another voice rang out, and a brass hatchling flew down from the golden dragon's back.
Then, several humans and a horse wearing a hat slid down from the dragon's back one after another. Seeing one of the humans, the middle-aged man's eyes almost popped out: "Captain? Captain Night Crow? How did you..."
The Black Night Crow waved her hand, signaling him not to speak first, and then ordered: "Pearl, take out those pearls we kept at the bottom of the box. I bought grain, and they even delivered it to our door."
"Oh, oh." The middle-aged man was full of questions but suppressed them for the time being and quickly went to find a bag, which contained seven or eight black pearls the size of chicken eggs.
Nai Ge Li Si received them in his hand and looked at them with disdain: "Although they can be sold for a lot of money, they are useless to us. Forget it, let's just do this."
Black pearls of this size are very precious and have no supply for the price, but they are useless to them. However, it's an equal exchange, so they can't just give it away for free. The Black Night Crow had to take out something. This was the only thing she could take out now, so he had to accept it reluctantly.
Two hundred tons of grain were transferred out, causing a jubilation among everyone.
Ang and the others, having completed their mission, gathered together. Nai Ge Li Si said: "Alright, we're leaving. Remember to thank the God of the Undead."
Ang took out the Heavenly Kingdom Scepter and opened a portal, teleporting to the Holy Heavenly Kingdom one by one, disappearing like a miracle, which triggered everyone's worship. Finally, only Bu Lusike was left in the bay, dazed.
The Black Night Crow accompanied him cautiously, not understanding why Bu Lusike was dazed. The main characters were all gone, so why hadn't this driver left?
Bu Lusike was dazed because Nai Ge Li Si was right. Originally, he was very disdainful in his heart. Providing medical care, sending medicine, sending some grain—what's the use?
The total population scattered on the ocean might not even be five hundred thousand. Even if all these people remembered the Dragon Clan's kindness, what's the use?
The Light Church, a large religious sect with hundreds of millions of believers, still obediently follows the Dragon Clan's rules when they reach the ocean.
Of course, when he reached the land, Bu Lusike was also as obedient as a little lizard.
Because the number is too small, the Dragon Clan doesn't really care about those intelligent creatures on the ocean. Plus, they are scattered on various islands, making it very troublesome to provide aid.
But as Nai Ge Li Si said, the ocean is the Dragon Clan's sphere of influence. Others won't and dare not go deep into the ocean, but the Dragon Clan doesn't care, so no one cares. If they die of hunger or illness, if they don't scold the Dragon God, who do they scold?
If there were no Dragon Clan, would guys like Andongni not find a way to extend their tentacles into the ocean?
Another point is, are hundreds of thousands of believers really unimportant? Lord Ang seems to only have hundreds of thousands of believers, right? Yet he can play with flowers. Should we organize them and build a Dragon God faith?
If it works well and ignites a Dragon God's faith fire...
Thinking of this, Bu Lusike stood up, let his huge figure cover the Black Night Crow, and asked with a smile: "Black Night Crow, do you want to be protected by our Dragon Clan and run rampant in this sea area?"
There's such a good thing? The Black Night Crow nodded her head like a chicken pecking at rice.
"But our Dragon Clan only protects believers who believe in the Dragon God," Bu Lusike said.
The Black Night Crow nodded desperately, then pointed at Bu Lusike and shouted loudly: "Everyone, come over! The Dragon God protects us! Thank the Dragon God!"
On the ocean, dragons are supreme. Legends about dragons are as numerous as the stars. Many old sailors have even witnessed the heroic posture of dragons skimming across the sea at high speed.
Now, such a behemoth actually wants to protect them voluntarily, and the only thing needed is their belief?
When the dragons don't protect them, people on the sea also believe in the Dragon God. Even those like the Black Night Crow who don't believe in it would habitually use the Dragon God's name when taking an oath, which means they don't have to pay anything.
Heavens, there's such a good thing? It must be the protection of the God of the Undead. Thank the God of the Undead!
The Black Night Crow isn't stupid. She naturally understands why Bu Lusike voluntarily offered to protect her. Dragons who never care about humans—why would they suddenly protect her?
It's all because of Ang and the others. Without Ang taking her to Dragon Island and without the brass dragon saying those words, this golden dragon would be a bird to her.
Others don't understand, but they believe in the Dragon God anyway. Now hearing the Black Night Crow's shouting, they were all crazy with joy, quickly surrounding them and kowtowing, even those few snake-people were no exception.
Bu Lusike noticed these snake-people, sniffed, and asked: "You are Dragon-Thralls. Whose Dragon-Thralls?"
The snake-people said a name.
"Oh, so it's him. He has already returned to the Dragon Tomb and is sleeping forever. Otherwise, I would have to hold him accountable for leaving his Dragon-Thralls alone," Bu Lusike said majestically.
Several snake-people were scared soft. The name they said was equivalent to their god in their inheritance. But now, hearing the golden dragon's tone, if he weren't dead, he would hold their god accountable?
This golden dragon has such a big tone. What is his background?
Bu Lusike blew a breath at the few snake-people.
A dragon's breath can burn down a city, but the vast majority of people have never seen the other kind of dragon breath—the dragon breath that can make dragon descendants and Dragon-Thralls transform.
The few snake-people only felt a spring breeze brushing their faces, and their whole bodies felt comfortable. Not long after, they felt itchy all over, ran into the pile of stones, and rubbed and rubbed. That night, they shed their skin.
The snake-people who shed their skin seemed to have been reborn. Their originally smooth human-like upper bodies now had hard, fine scales on the outside of their arms, waist, and back, leaving only their chest and abdomen smooth. This greatly increased their defensive power.
Two small sharp horns grew on their foreheads. The snake-people were shocked to find that they could sense water elements. As long as they practiced a little, their flexibility in the water would greatly increase.
Besides that, their body size also increased. After each skin shedding, the snake-people's body size could continue to grow, but snake-people only shed their skin twice in their lives. I didn't expect Bu Lusike to breathe on them, prompting them to shed their skin for the third time. If this isn't a god, what is a god?
Maintaining the dragon form, Bu Lusike finished all the things that were very oppressive before transforming into human form and providing medical care and medicine according to Nai Ge Li Si's words.
This is also the easiest move to win people's hearts. Watching their companions suffering from pain miraculously recover under Bu Lusike's magic, everyone's belief became incomparably firm and pious.
"Yo ho? So much food? Wasn't your grain snatched by us? Where did you get the grain?" A voice rang out abruptly.
Looking around, a large group of pirates wearing waterproof clothing were quietly sneaking over in the water of the bay. They had already surrounded the camp in the bay.
The Black Night Crow slapped her thigh and said excitedly: "It's the Canglong Pirate Group. Oh my, why is my luck so good?"
"Where is the Black Night Crow? Come out! Who are the people who killed my deputy captain!? Come out! What kind of evil art did you use to summon that golden dragon? Hand over the summoning artifact, or I will kill all your people!" The pirate shouting at the head should be the captain of the Canglong Pirate Group.
The Black Night Crow realized: "So he thought Lord Bu Lusike was summoned by me?"
The human-form Bu Lusike's eyes turned, and a mischievous heart arose: "Then let it be as he wishes. You find something, rush to the front, show it to him, and then shout my name."
The Black Night Crow nodded excitedly, picked up a stone from the ground, rushed out, and shouted loudly: "Captain Canglong? Since you know I can summon a golden dragon, why do you still dare to come and find me? Are you not afraid of death? Look at what this is! This is the Dragon God Stone!"
Captain Canglong stared blankly at the pitch-black, inconspicuous stone with no fluctuations in the Black Night Crow's hand. He was stunned for a while and then burst into laughter: "You want to fool me with a broken stone? Quickly hand over the artifact you used to summon the golden dragon, or I will kill all of you."
"This is it," the Black Night Crow shook the stone in her hand: "Lord Bu Lusike! I call your name in the name of the Dragon God. Come out, Golden Dragon Bu Lusike!"
Captain Canglong just wanted to laugh, but suddenly heard a dragon roar that pierced the darkness. A huge golden figure, especially conspicuous in the dark night, pounced toward him.
Before being swallowed by the dragon breath, Captain Canglong only had one thought in his mind: That broken stone can really summon a golden dragon—
Early the next morning, the Canglong Pirate Group, having abandoned darkness for light, put on the Black Night Crow's flag and sailed slowly toward De Lei Ke Island.
The Black Night Crow stood on the bridge of the flagship, her face blooming with a smile: Why is my luck so good? Protected by the God of the Undead, I will believe in you from now on.
Behind her, those surrendered original Canglong pirates looked at the broken stone she held in her hand with full awe.
With the activities of the pirate group, the legend of a Dragon God Stone that can summon a golden dragon began to spread across the ocean.
Nai Ge Li Si never expected that their trip to the sea would actually change the power of the entire ocean. But even if he knew, he wouldn't have time to care, because as soon as he returned to the City of the Goddess of Beauty, Kai Di came to them holding a little guy.
"Isn't this the Dragon-Thrall child adopted by the Spring Breeze Arch-Druid? What's wrong with him? Did he cause trouble? What is he holding? Straw? An owl made of straw?" Nai Ge Li Si asked in confusion.
Kai Di said with a bitter smile: "I don't know what he did either. He molded this with mud. Xiao Bu, tell everyone, how did you do it?"
"Molded with mud? Xiao Bu? Straw molded with mud? What does that mean?" Nai Ge Li Si was surprised.
Ang had been tilting his head and watching. At this moment, he suddenly pointed to the straw owl and said: "Inside, there is a spirit."
