Chapter 8: The Abyss of Dragon's Sleep

Unlike the Divine Machines siblings, who were happily guessing who the third legend was, Joshua knew from the beginning that there would be no second candidate for the third legend of the empire other than Master Nostradamus.

Since the all-out war with the Orc Empire decades ago, Nostradamus has always been the one with the highest reputation for achievement as a civilian, he has experienced blood and fire in the war as a civilian, leading the army to thwart the conspiracy raids of the orc shaman army several times, whether it is a scholar, a mage or a soldier, a general, Nostradamus has done it, and has done it to the extreme.

It is precisely because of this that Israel, who was still the prince of the empire at the time, chose this civilian mage with no identity background as his teacher, for His Majesty the Emperor, he has indeed found the best guide in this world, and for Nostradamus, it is also a step up the ladder for him to reach the sky and show his ambitions.

The next thing is well known, how Israel and Nostradamus joined forces to fight against the orcs are recorded in history books and folk biographies, but the news of the old mage gradually faded in the eyes of everyone after His Majesty the Emperor advanced to the legend, and when he appeared in everyone's vision again, he had become the president of the Imperial Royal Mage Association and the dean of the Imperial Capital Mage Academy, but his strength has always been at the peak of extreme intentions, and he has no intention of breaking through.

Although it sounds like a story of an emperor who oppressed his courtiers and former teachers in order to maintain his absolute majesty, Joshua can say that this is not the case.

Not to mention that Israel is not the kind of person who can't look down on the strength of his subordinates, according to the contacts between the warrior and the old mage in the past few years, he has not found the other party's desire to break through, Nostradamus has spent most of his time on the students of the academy in addition to dealing with the government affairs of the imperial capital, and his original words are enough for his own strength.

"Breaking through the legend is a very risky thing, reorganizing one's own life form means completely transforming and sublimating one's past self, failure is almost equal to death, even if it succeeds, there will be a period of extremely long transformation, recuperation."

Whispering to himself, the warrior clenched his fists as he was in the midst of this long period of recuperation. With his contemplation and comprehension of the power of steel in the world of Grandia, coupled with the sublimation of the battle with Akhhar, Joshua successfully broke through the boundaries of his own life, and stabilized this realm with the power of the Initial Fire, but since then, he has not completely transformed his body into 'steel'.

Decades ago, the emperor and the first heir were all killed on the battlefield, many great nobles had different thoughts, not only did not contribute to the front line, but also accumulated strength in the rear to try to rebel, if it weren't for the extraordinary talent and strength of Israel in the war, and advanced to a legend after the war, there is no doubt that the northern empire of Nuoda would have been divided into countless small countries, and if Israel did not break through at that time, it would mean that the country would be destroyed, he only had this one choice, but Nostradamus was different, after Israel broke through, He doesn't have much need for power, on the contrary, he needs time more.

In order for ordinary people to learn magic and comprehend the mystery of the truth of the world, in order for ordinary people to have a chance to enter the world, and not to waste time due to their natural birth, this is the wish of Nostradamus, which does not require too much strength, but it requires a long period of reform.

Advanced legend can be said to be the highest pursuit for ordinary people, but for that old man, it is probably just an unnecessary choice, and there is even a certain risky choice, after all, if he fails, it means that his life's struggle will become meaningless.

- But why did he suddenly change his mind and break through now?

Doubts flashed in his heart, but Joshua didn't think deeply, anyway, when he waited until next spring, all the questions would be answered.

"Alright."

The warrior clapped his hands, then stood up, and he started to walk towards the study, while Hotaru and Rin and Hei who quickly got up to follow followed, Joshua muttered to himself, "The idle things are over, the autumn harvest is over, and the demonic beasts that have grown up are almost wiped out." ”

"Tomorrow we will start gathering the Knights and begin to prepare for the attack on the Mist of God's Doom."

And just as the warrior made his decision, far away, another world.

As all beings know, everything that exists has an end, people will die, iron will rust, burning flames will be extinguished, evergreen pine trees will decay, even the sea will one day dry up, mountains will one day collapse, and the seemingly eternal world will also usher in its own end on the day destined for the distant future.

But how big is a 'world'? The hundred-legged insect dies without stiffening, and even death will last for thousands of years, and in these thousands of years, the dying world will leave its original trajectory, disappear from the 'stars' in the multiverse, and fall to the bottom of the world.

That is, the 'abyss', which is hated and feared by countless civilizations and the world.

One hundred and sixty-two layers of the abyss, a sea of poison.

As the name suggests, this is a world infested by poison, the war of the destruction of the world has shattered the continent, the interface is full of the highly toxic water and ocean after the destruction of the world, countless evil poisonous insects and giant snakes shuttle in the sea of negative energy enough to erode the space.

Poisonous insects and serpents that live in poison and negative energy are unintelligent creatures of chaos that have survived the death of the world from the wreckage of a former civilization. Due to the harsh environment, even the Abyss Lord, who has ruled several abysses, is reluctant to set foot here, so this world has remained independent for more than 2,000 years since falling into the abyss. However, legend has it that this is also because there is a giant python with a strength comparable to a god lurking in the depths of the sea of negative energy.

But this abyssal world, once known as the 'Sea of Poison', is now home to nearly 10,000 dragons.

Along with the ripples of time and space, waves began to spread in the center of spatial distortion, and then, dozens of portals were opened, and thousands of exhausted five-colored dragonfish rushed in, entering this ocean world overflowing with radiation and poisonous dust.

For some reason, the poisonous insects and giant snakes, which were originally extremely xenophobic and would brazenly attack even in the face of the scorching hell, did not react to the presence of these dragons, and they still shuttled and multiplied in the sea of highly poisonous negative energy, and sat back and watched these dragons build floating islands in the sky to recuperate.

Above the sky, three huge consciousnesses watched as the dragons took the same material, extracted material from the deep sea crust, and then quickly established the floating island, and they were silent for a long time before they began to talk slowly.

"The Great Devil has descended, but we have been driven out of the world of Microf."

This voice belongs to the White Dragon Patriarch, the Lord of Frost Bonnard, and the idea of the almost materialization of the legendary dragon contains a strong unwillingness: "The abyss is the lowest level of the multiverse, even the brilliance that benefits all beings will be weakened here, and the lack of opportunities between our race and the 'opportunity' in the Mycrof world can be described as a heavy loss." ”

"After all, we failed." The one who replied was the patriarch of the black dragon, the Stygian Sea Dragon Keano, as the controller of negative energy, the legendary black dragon is very adaptable to the environment of the abyss of the Sea of Poison, and it can even be said that he is very satisfied, so its unwillingness is not so heavy: "Eagle alone, even if we besiege it, we may not be able to take it steadily, plus the Sky Dragoon and the Nature Mentor, our clan is already lucky if it is only a fiasco and not an annihilation, and we can't ask for more." ”

The other Blue Dragon Patriarch, the legendary Blue Dragon Immortal Lan Feng Retia, did not talk to the other two legendary dragons, its jewel-like dragon pupils shimmered with misty brilliance, and in an instant it swept through countless seas, and of course, it found nothing, except for the stupid sea serpents, it did not see any trace of the legendary giant python comparable to the gods.

Knowing this, Ritya felt a little relieved, so it waited until the two dragons were done complaining before speaking, "It may not be that there is no chance. ”

The Blue Dragon Patriarch's mind was as swift as thunder, and if it wasn't the two dragons who were also legends communicating with him, he would probably be hurt by this too strong will: "Although we evacuated the McCrof World with most of the five-colored dragons, it doesn't mean that we can't get those 'opportunities', whether it's you or me, there must be some elite shadows left on the continent." ”

Bonnard and Keano both stopped talking, listening to Ritya talk about its thoughts, as 'partners' who have joined forces to rule the five-colored dragon for a long time, they must have this tacit understanding on the surface, and Rhethia also continued: "When the first wave of the Great Demon Tide comes, most of the Boundless Heaven Boundless Realm will be shaken off from the Divine Seal, this was originally an opportunity for the races to obtain the inheritance of the gods of the Ancient Era, but how can those inferior races compare to our dragons in terms of memory inheritance?" The continuous war has long since left them without a book on this subject, and I dare to assert that the vast majority of the forces do not know the nature of those fogs, let alone their meaning! ”

Speaking of this, the legendary blue dragon looked full of confidence: "It's only been almost half a year since Starfall, even those mages in the Eastern Plains may not be able to study anything, we only need to send some dragons, or let the dragon disguise itself as a human form and enter the mist in advance for trial, as long as they can avoid the eyes and ears of those inferior races, with the power of the dragon, they will definitely be able to obtain inheritance and divinity, and the power of our race can continue to grow, and it will not be affected by the current evil!" ”

The blue dragon's plan can be described as simple enough for a child to come up with, but it is highly feasible, after all, although the five-colored dragon on the Microf continent has disappeared, there are still metal dragons wandering, as long as the camouflage is good enough, do not reveal the nature of the evil bias, few people can tell whether the dragon body in human form is a five-colored dragon or a metal dragon.

And in fact, it is true, it is not that among the many forces on the Mycrof continent, it is not that they do not see which fallen stars are actually engraved by the gods, but they do not know how to break through the instinctive blockade of divine power and obtain the deepest inheritance of it, this mist formed by the memory and power of the dead gods is like a huge thinking labyrinth, all beings who fall into it will encounter one difficult challenge after another, only those who have completed the challenge can inherit part of the power of this god, Rityia's idea is not wrong, They do have a chance.

"Abandon the target located in the depths of the great power, those engravings are not something we can interfere with, and choose the inconspicuous ones located on the edge of the continent as much as possible."

The legendary dragon sets the tone.

So, not long after, in the Mycrof continent, countless lurking shadows were about to move, and one by one, 'merchants', 'scholars', and 'adventurers' rode all kinds of vehicles towards the area where the stars fell, and inadvertently, they could see that in their eyes, there was a faint vertical pupil hidden.

All plans have been completed, and the three legendary dragons continue to watch in silence as their race rebuilds its home in this abyssal world little by little, and the one hundred and sixty-second floor of the abyss will be renamed at this time.

[Dragon Sleep Abyss] is its name in the abyss realms in the future.
