Chapter 932 Ragnarok·Interstellar Civilization Invaders
The Aurelian Empire did not support Edward in a big way, but in a secret way.
Edward, who lacked the resources to become stronger, finally chose to accept the support of the Orei Empire under the analysis of the Dragon of Life and the Dragon of Death.
Currently, he has become a count in the Orei Empire and serves as a secret agent.
However, his count has no real power, and is more of an honorary title.
But in terms of providing resources, the Aurelian Empire was extremely generous, and Edward received a resource supply treatment that was second only to Lu Xingshi.
This is actually normal. The suggestions given by Lu Xingshi will be seriously considered by everyone in the Aurelian Empire.
Words spoken from the mouth of an unknown person are valued differently than words spoken from the mouth of a powerful imperial prince.
Lu Xingshi also knew something about this, and he didn't take it too seriously. It was not a big deal.
Judging from Edward's situation, he may not necessarily have the opportunity to give back to the Orei Empire when he grows up.
Of course, in the process of growth, we should be able to plan a lot of benefits for the Orei Empire. After all, growth will cause chaos.
Nowadays, the Orei Empire belongs to the protagonist camp of Edward, and it is inevitable that it will be affected because of Edward.
If the Aurelian Empire can face up to this impact, there is a chance to turn it into benefits.
Lu Xingshi did not pay too much attention to the subsequent events, but continued to study the Earth Dragon. After returning to the Dragon Mountains, the Earth Dragon's condition improved, but it was not that easy to fully recover.
Therefore, Lu Xingshi carried out extensive construction work and built a top-notch ICU specifically for the Earth Dragon to ensure its recovery efficiency.
This is also a huge expense for the empire.
After all, this is equipment used to maintain divinity, how can it be cheap?
Fortunately, the empire provided the money, otherwise it would not be easy for Lu Xingshi to collect so much.
Then, the empire thought about studying the dragon of the earth with Lu Xingshi.
Although this is not a complete immortal dragon, how could the empire not covet the power of the earth.
In fact, the Empire wanted the Dragon of Life and the Dragon of Death in Edward more than the Dragon of the Earth. As long as one of the dragons could be harnessed, they would either have immortality or possess weapons of mass destruction.
No matter which one it is, it is a great temptation for the empire's senior officials.
The earth dragon owned by Lu Xingshi is naturally not as attractive as those two dragons.
It's just that compared to Edward, who has no fixed address, it's easier for Lu Xingshi to settle down in the Dragon Mountains.
What's more important is that they are different in nature. For Edward, the two dragons are teachers and companions, but for Lu Xingshi, the Earth Dragon is just an experiment.
If the empire dared to ask Edward for two dragons, then Edward would dare to turn against him.
On the contrary, after discussing with Lu Xingshi and transferring enough benefits, there is still a chance to obtain certain research opportunities.
Lu Xingshi refused directly and said that he would only sell some of the dragon scales as samples.
In the end, the empire had no choice but to bite the bullet and spend a lot of money to buy some of the dragon scales from Lu Xingshi.
As for the results of the research, Lu Xingshi didn't know, but there was a high probability that he wouldn't be able to produce anything.
It wasn't that Lu Xingshi had done anything to the Earth Dragon's dragon scales, but that the current technological development of the Orei Empire was simply not enough to analyze the divine structure.
Even observing is a bit difficult.
If you want to study the gods, you must have enough strength. Without strength, if the gods are placed in front of your eyes, you won't see any difference.
Unless you use a method similar to that of fairy chivalrous or fantasy, and understand some characteristics or certain rules of the gods from the gods, then let's talk about it.
It is a pity that Lu Xingshi does not have this ability.
There is a high probability that there will be no such thing in the Orei Empire. Knights and wizards have been eliminated. The mainstream scientific researchers in the empire are called steam experts. They have been studying the unique witchcraft of the steam engine before.
Now asking them to change majors is equivalent to starting from scratch.
Lu Xingshi suspected that they might use evil methods to maximize the interests of these dragon scales.
Such as biomodification.
If dragon scales are implanted into someone's body, there is a chance that the other person will be assimilated by the dragon scales and become similar to a dragon, gaining a part of the power of the earth dragon.
But this power comes at a price.
Even if it is just a dragon scale, it is still part of the divinity, so it has high intensity of erosion.
If you fail, you will become a vegetative state.
Fortunately, the Earth Dragon has no consciousness, otherwise it would not be a vegetative state, but would become the incarnation of the Earth Dragon.
This is also good news.
Plants are plants, but they are not harmful.
As for success, then of course he is a dragon man, otherwise what else could he be.
The upper limit of strength is relatively low. After all, after the dragon scales are separated from the earth dragon, they become similar to fallen toenails. They will not synchronize with the main body. The original energy level will not increase but decrease.
And because it is just scales, its potential will be greatly reduced.
Lu Xingshi estimated that based on the previous strength of the dragon scale, it could only be equivalent to a third-level steam soldier. Large-scale mass production is unrealistic. There is only one Earth Dragon, and it is in a weak and plant dragon state. Even if it is cut into pieces, it may not be able to produce many extraordinary soldiers.
Only through sustainability can we have a continuous supply of extraordinary soldiers.
"The memory extraction was successful..." Lu Xingshi looked at the memory crystal in his hand and couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.
Originally, there was not much success rate, but he couldn't resist his cheating, so he locked in the successful result by partially closing the timeline.
This restraint consumed 90% of his authority, and it would probably take some time to recover.
The main reason is that he has more requirements for closing and locking, so the success rate naturally drops.
The higher and more requirements there are, the lower the success rate will naturally be. After all, with every additional condition, the variables faced will increase exponentially.
Then the corresponding consumption will naturally rise.
Therefore, Lu Xingshi rarely uses the timeline to end things, because as a game villain, he is too powerless to fight against the timeline of the entire world.
It's like he has locked himself into becoming the most powerful being in the world, and this restraint cannot succeed at all.
But by relying on your own cheating and hard work, you can still achieve it even if you don't need to time-lock the results.
Bandha locking is not a panacea, nor is it necessary.
"With the memories of the Immortal Dragon and the Rotten Dragon, we should be able to determine the truth about Ragnarok." The memory crystal in Lu Xingshi's hands naturally does not belong to a single dragon.
After all, the origin of the Earth Dragon is indeed complicated.
Then he began to read the memory, and the long memory was directly instilled into Lu Xingshi's mind in a gentle way.
"Tool man and mascot..." Lu Xingshi rubbed his temples and looked a little unhappy: "It's not that there is no information, but this is a bit too boring."
Whether it is the Immortal Dragon or the Rotten Dragon, they spend most of their time doing nothing in the Kingdom of God.
Occasionally listening to some interesting anecdotes from far away is one of their few pastimes.
These things come from believers and followers. After reaching a certain level of faith, believers and followers can enter and leave the Kingdom of God at will.
Lu Xingshi speeded up these time-wasting idle activities and soon pulled the timeline to the disaster period of Ragnarok.
The good news is that both dragons, who are gods in their own right, saw the true Ragnarok.
The bad news is... the enemies are completely different.
"Where did this interstellar civilization come from???" Lu Xingshi's face turned a little green.
In the memories of the two dragons, they saw countless interstellar battleships guarding a cosmic fortress, directly launching physical attacks on the entire world, causing horrific changes in the rules of the entire world.
Although it was stopped and counterattacked by the gods immediately, the interstellar civilization seemed to have a lot of experience in dealing with this aggregation of world rules, and it was able to withstand the counterattack in an instant.
Then, the world's protection mechanism was activated, and the gods... pulled the entire interstellar civilization into the world and carried out mandatory rule assimilation.
With the help of the world and the gods at the expense of themselves, they successfully decomposed everything in the interstellar civilization and assimilated everyone.
Except for some people who escaped through some kind of black hole-like technology.
Therefore, the gods and the world have paid a price, the strong have fallen, and due to changes in rules, the original extraordinary system has not completely collapsed, but it is almost useless.
The current system of extraordinary soldiers is actually resting on their laurels, because they are unable to create powerful enough witchcraft anymore and can only use the witchcraft from back then as the core.
Fortunately, this battle did not cause much damage within the world from start to end.
"So the person on the mural actually refers to a certain strong man from the interstellar civilization entering the world. In fact, he is just a cannon fodder. The real main force should be the interstellar battleships and the cosmic fortress."
"Then there are humans in this world. They are actually outsiders. The real indigenous people are alien races. Most of them were exterminated due to the original rule attack."
"So after the gods fell, humans would go to war with the remaining alien races and completely exterminate them."
"Because this is a fight for survival."
"Victory is victory, but it is also completely assimilated into the indigenous people of this world."
"That's not right. Humans came after Ragnarok, so where did the demigod bloodline of the Langton family come from?" Lu Xingshi discovered the contradiction. At that time, the gods of earth and life were dead, so how could there be communication.
Not to mention getting a blessing, it would be nice if they don't kill you.
"Let's put it aside for now. The problem is too big and we can't find a valid argument." Lu Xingshi sighed. There were more and more doubts. It can only be said that there are many unexplainable disorders and unresolved contradictions in the history of the world.
"So the birth of Edward actually indicates that the remnants of an interstellar civilization that used black hole technology to escape are preparing to return again?"
Lu Xingshi narrowed his eyes, what kind of thing is this? Medieval knights fighting future space warriors...
"Eh? So maybe the first generation of witch hunters were not humans, but aliens?"
Lu Xingshi suddenly realized that the first generation of witch hunters existed before Ragnarok. In addition, the other party was a foreign race, so he seemed to be able to understand it if he lived for a long time.
According to the memories of the two divine dragons, followers and believers are basically immortal species, and they can all survive.
"Then the first generation of witch hunters probably didn't target wizards, but assimilated humans."
