Chapter 958: Invitation alone

The young dragons hatched in the factory are accompanied by lifelong implant transformation and synergist addiction. Everything under the control of giant artificial intelligence is clearly divided into upper and lower worlds, temples, downtowns, factories, neighborhoods, priests, councillors, elders, civilians, autonomous cities, and customized employees of enterprises.

Tallond.

The Kingdom of "Giant Dragon".

Everything here left a deep impression on Gao Wen, and the impact it brought even more than what he saw and heard after stepping out of the grave for the first time. During his short day of tours and visits, all his impressions about the dragon kingdom have been completely subverted.

All the impressions of the dragon clan's mystery, power, elegance and majesty were shattered by reality. The world constructed in the imagination of bards and playwrights fell apart, leaving only a bizarre residue, a twisted and absurd impression, and countless thoughts and speculations.

In front of such a Tarrond, the stories about knights holding swords to kill the evil dragon, dragons and heroes establish contracts, castles, kingdoms and dragons wars suddenly become cute, even with a warm luster.

Gao Wen seemed to suddenly understand why so many "travelers" from the Dragon Kingdom ran to the human world to transform into minstrels, compose so many bizarre and completely different dragon legends from the facts, and understood why "upper dragon clans" like Melita were so bored that they wrote a bunch of "Dragon Quests" who made up random things, and even put their friends in it as prototypes.

He thought these were boring and puzzling quirks, but now... he couldn't help but wonder that it might be some kind of remembrance, the pastoral life of the dragons who once had, which did not rely on synergists and implants, artificial intelligence and automated cities, or just some kind of beautiful imagination.

Forex Arena, one of several large arenas in Argondore, a "competitive game" that seems to be incomprehensible to Amber and Veronica is in full swing.

It was an elliptical three-dimensional field - a large number of solid alloy materials and high-strength polymer shells formed a form like a "big dome". The twelve giant dragons competed for a symbol of honor called the "champion ring" in this transparent giant dome, and the dragons participating in the competition had even completely exceeded the impression of "big dragon" by Gao Wen and others.

They boldly used a large number of external implants, covering the bones outside the bones, and covering the skin outside the skin. The alloy armor and turbo injection device made the original flesh and blood look like a flying machine with strange shapes. They fought, fought, and even fought in the giant dome. In addition to the use of powerful dragon breath and magic attacks, this so-called "competitive game" allows almost any form and degree of hand-to-hand combat, and the hand-to-hand combat of the dragon... is completely devastating to humans.

A black dragon participating in the competition was eliminated. He was besieged by his opponent in mid-air. After a brutal and cruel fight and fighting, he was almost torn into pieces and thrown down. His wings, limbs and torso were split into pieces. The heavy wreckage fell onto the alloy floor at the bottom of the "Sports Arena". In the broken mouth, dazzling arcane sparks and out-of-control frost, flames, lightning, his chest cracked, and a heart that was still running fell out. The sealing device failed to function in time. The hot and shimmering liquid gushed from the black dragon's body - more oil and synergists than blood.

A rescue team rushed into the field and quickly recovered the part of the black dragon's trunk to the head, while the remaining wreckage was thrown directly on the field.

A huge boo was heard in the audience, as if ten thousand thunders exploded inside and outside the arena, and numbers were jumping on the scoreboard above the competitive dome, and the loser left the game in the form of scores.

Gao Wen, Amber, Veronica sat on the "Senior Seating" outside the competitive dome, looking at the competition in shock. Melita and Noreta were next to them, and seemed to have been completely immersed in this game. It was not until the remaining team members on the field successfully rushed to the static force field where the champion ring was placed, successfully took out the ring and activated it, that they breathed a sigh of relief and returned to the "real world".

"The black dragon who was eliminated just now is going to lose a lot!" Melita said loudly, "He has to replace almost all his parts - I hope he can buy all the insurance."

"He shouldn't have tried fighting three opponents at the same time - being surrounded will be done immediately. Black Dragon is not good at dealing with attacks from behind, especially with an extra layer of joint armor added to his spine... I don't know what to think."

"It's just that there are too many pills of synergists," Melita shrugged, "and has the illusion of being the best in the world."

“…It makes sense.”

The two Dragon Clan friends were discussing the just-concluded game in a warm manner, but even the most chattering Amber on weekdays didn't seem to interrupt at this time.

It was not until more than ten seconds later that Melita seemed to suddenly realize something. She hurriedly turned her gaze and looked at Gao Wen and the other two with apologies: "Ah--sorry, we were so involved by accident..."

Gao Wen didn't know what expression he should have, and for some reason, he remembered the scene when he first met Melita Pernia - the elegant and mysterious woman who visited in the night, wearing a purple gauze dress and a lilac veil, but this image was quickly dispelled by the almost deafening roar in the arena.

There was only Miss Blue Dragon who was passionate about watching the gladiatorial competition in front of him.

"It's okay," Gao Wen shook his head, "You can tell that you like this very much."

"Actually, I don't like it that much - Extreme Sports is a bit too noisy for me," Melita smiled awkwardly, "but once I enter this atmosphere, I will inevitably be infected by the emotions around me... Actually, I don't usually look at this."

Noreta, who was standing by, noticed that Gao Wen and others seemed to have no interest in this arena: "Is the competition here a bit boring for you?"

"Just a little...well, a little too exciting," Amber finally spoke, she grabbed her hair with an awkward and impolite smile on her face. "As a competitive game, is this thing a bit too bloody?"

"Well, this may seem a little bit less in line with human aesthetics... It's our mistake," Melita said sincerely. "Force is an entertainment that has only become popular in Tallond recently. We are too eager to show you something 'newer' on this land.'

"Let's leave this place first," Gao Wen said casually, and finally looked up at the direction of the competitive dome. A working group responsible for finishing entered the yard, began to clean up the abandoned parts and broken limbs and arms of the ground, and began to use some large cleaning machinery to clean up the oil and blood all over the floor. Some teams that looked like small teams were guarding several exits below the dome. Gao Wen saw one of the teams step forward and hand over the staff, loading the scrap parts and active biological tissues recovered from the arena onto the car. "...This place is indeed a bit too noisy."

Under the night, the blue and white dragons rose again and circled above the Forza.

Gao Wen looked at this height and saw that the "big dome" made of alloys and high-strength polymers were reflected by countless lights inside and outside. The large number of steel support structures and intricate streets around the arena were entangled and spread like branches intertwined into nests.

The noisy roars and the exciting music all turned into a faint buzzing from afar. The irritability that was pressing on my heart gradually faded away, and the competitive dome actually had a little beauty in Gao Wen's eyes.

It is like a crystal egg illuminated by light, lying quietly in a nest made of metal and cement, with blood, oil and steel inside it.

It was Tallond who "laid" this egg... So what gave birth to Tallond like today? The dragons that revel in the arena... Are they intoxicated by this carnival, or are they intoxicated by themselves?

Gao Wen's thoughts spread uncontrollably, until Melita's voice suddenly sounded, and it woke him up from his thoughts like a low thunder: "I'm still thinking about the arena just now? Sorry... Now think about it carefully, Noreta and I are only concerned about letting you see the 'complete Tallond', but did not consider Loren's human aesthetics and worldview. In fact, there are some things that are seriously inconsistent with human preferences that should not be shown to you."

"No, I don't care about this," Gao Wen shook his head, "I'm just thinking about something else."

"That's good," Melita seemed relieved, and then shook her head. "Actually, Norreta and I are a little... too excited. Few dragons have the opportunity to bring visitors like you openly to visit Tallond... I hope that the things we are eager to present to you do not make you feel bad."

Gao Wen immediately laughed: "That's not, I'm actually quite... happy."

He was really not polite, but he really felt novel and interesting about this trip to Tallond. Aside from the occasional deep thoughts and worries about the situation behind Tallond, this eye-opening trip was even a surprise to him - after all, he never waited for "Cyberxke 2077" until his death in his previous life...

This time I will be a dream come true.

Of course, Noreta didn't know what Gao Wen was thinking. She obviously felt that the other party's words were mostly polite, so she could only reply with an embarrassing and polite laughter.

The brightly lit land of Tarlongd quickly retreated amid Miss Blue Dragon's awkward laughter, gradually retreating to the deepest part of the night.

In the next two days, Melita and Noreta became "full-time guides" for Gao Wen and others.

Under the leadership of the two dragon ladies, Gao Wen, Amber and Veronica visited almost every corner of the metropolis of Argondore, and even visited two nearby cities and the factory clusters in the coastal area. After the first day of shock and surprise, Gao Wen and others calmed down and began to visit this bizarre world for them with a nearly touristy mood.

Amber seemed very happy - although she could not understand what happened to these dragon clans, which were different from the legendary story, she obviously had given up on this issue. While relaxing, she began to seriously enjoy the dragon clan's courtesy and the fun of visiting.

Even Veronica showed her curiosity and began to treat the journey with a tourist and "scholar" mentality. She actively talked with the newly met dragon tribes, asked about the customs and customs of Tallond, or borrowed some classics from Melita that had been translated and processed by Omega, trying to understand the cultural changes and legends of the dragon tribe - everyone can see that she is really enjoying all this, rather than wearing a mask of eternal peace and smile like she usually does.

But Gao Wen knew that this "visit" trip was not the whole of his trip to Tallongde, and the real important part of this trip... was still a meeting with Dragon God Eunya.

He didn't wait too long.

On the fourth day of coming to Tallond, the high-level dragon priest with golden vertical pupils and serious temperament appeared in front of him again. At this time, Gao Wen and Melita were looking down at the scenery on a mountain outside the city of Argondor. The lights and stars in Tallond under the night sky were shining with each other, and a large-scale aurora curtain was generated in the sky. This was a scene that was difficult to see in the human world, and the dragon priest emerged directly from the night sky, as if using some kind of teleportation technology.

"My Lord hopes to have a separate meeting with you." Hragore came to Gaowen and conveyed the wishes of the Dragon God Enya.

"Meet alone?" Amber, who was watching the scenery next to her before, came over in surprise, "I won't take us this time?"

"Sorry," Hragore seemed to maintain the most perfect demeanor to everyone, and he greeted Amber with a smile, "This is the will of my Lord."

Amber and Veronica, the narrator, immediately frowned slightly, but Gao Wen was not surprised by this situation. In fact, he had been thinking about when this moment would come since yesterday - he smiled and said to Hragore: "It seems that He is finally going to talk to me about some more in-depth topics. When will we set out?"

"If you are convenient, now," Hragor said immediately, "I can take you directly to the upper temple."

Gao Wen thought for a while, reached out to take out the mechanical watch he carried with him, pressed the open cover and looked at the time above, and then put it away and nodded to Hragor: "It's very convenient for me - the time is right now."

Hragor's eyes stopped on Gao Wen's mechanical watch for a moment, but soon turned away and took a step forward. He opened his hands slightly, and a light golden halo appeared out of thin air, completely covering the area where Gao Wen was: "Then, let me take you for a ride."
