Chapter 445: Chapter 341: Grand Plan
Giant’s bloodline!
Upon hearing this, Raz could not help but retreat a step.
Clearly, within the Dragon Clan, the topic of the Giants was not particularly welcomed. Despite becoming a Ghost Dragon, Raz was instinctually afraid of this topic.
"Little one, do you know what you were just saying?" Raz leaned in, nearly banging his head against Tyl’s, to mask the awkwardness of his initial retreat.
"Yes, I know exactly what I was saying. In fact, I deliberately brought up this topic, thoroughly insulted Chairman Guleile, and that’s why I ended up here." Tyl chuckled, pride swelling for his past courage.
"Wait, you insulted that immortal monster Guleile? Ha-ha-ha! Your courage... No, no! It’s not about courage! You did it on purpose! You purposely got yourself thrown in here! But why?"
This time, Raz truly felt something was amiss.
"Because, I want revenge. However, I’m incapable of doing it myself, I need an ally. A sincere ally who harbours a deep hatred towards the Dragon Clan. An ally so powerful that they can help me accomplish my plan in this Burial Ground."
Tyl said.
"Kid, it seems like I’ve understood your intentions. Your target is me, right?"
Raz spoke in a grave tone.
Tyl nodded.
"Raz, back in the day, you were the strongest Guardian Giant Dragon of the Red Dragon Empire. You were hot-headed and your power made you number one in the world. When the Dragon Knights of the White Dragon Empire were weak, you and your Dragon Knight defended against the Black Dragon Empire’s attack in a crisis. You led the Red Dragon army to burn the entire Green Dragon Empire down to rubble, turned the lakes of the Blue Dragon Empire to a boil, and even invaded the territories of the Black Dragon Empire. Just when the Black Dragon Empire was on the brink of destruction, news of your Dragon Knight’s sudden death circulated. You single-handedly defended the Red Dragon Empire for nearly thirty years against the increasingly brutal onslaught of the Black Dragon Empire. It wasn’t until the key moment when the White Dragon Empire allied with the Red Dragon Empire that it was barely saved from being devoured by the Black Dragon Empire, but at a cost of one-fifth of its land."
"All of this happened when I was still a young dragon."
As Tyl said this, he looked at Raz. Naturally, this fierce Ghost Dragon displayed a face of unbelievable sorrow, but it didn’t say anything, and instead looked at Tyl.
Tyl sighed deeply and continued: "If, like me, you’ve ever investigated the abnormal deaths of Dragon Knights, then, you may have heard of Chairman Guleile’s World Balance Plan."
"World Balance Plan!"
Hearing these words, Raz roared in outrage, eyes spewing fire!
"It seems like you know about this plan. Chairman Guleile, in order to maintain perpetual warfare across the world and find a way to break the dragon clan’s curse, devised this plan. The only practice of this plan is to kill those exceptionally powerful Dragon Knights, those that pose a threat to world balance."
"Yes, that damned plan! That damn Guleile! Everything—everything was his doing!"
Raz roared furiously.
"So, I also want revenge." Tyl said.
"Your knight also..."
"Yes, my knight was named Tyl and originated from the Black Dragon Empire. After you went into hibernation, the Black Dragon Empire and White Dragon Empire each produced their most powerful Dragon Knight, leading their respective nations to the pinnacle of the world. However, they became targets of Chairman Guleile’s plan."
"Ha-ha! That immortal bastard!" Raz’s appearance completely transformed into one of monstrous ferocity.
"So, I need your help. Because unlike those common thugs thrown in here with us, we are the same."
"I will help you! As long as you are not lying, I will help you! I need revenge too, I will definitely help you!" Raz bellowed.
"However, when you ventured out earlier, you must have noticed the four bosses, right?" Tyl lowered his voice.
"You... can you, help me, unify the Burial Ground?"
Distrust was evident in Raz’s gaze.
"Please trust me, an incredibly smart human being has predicted all possible situations for me. Now, let’s proceed to the first step."
"What do I need to do?"
"Beat me, until I am severely injured."
For the past few days, the atmosphere in the entire Imperial Research Institute had been festive. Thanks to Long Yi and his team bringing back the mountain of crystal cores, Dean Ma Deburg wished he could live inside the core reactor. Fortunately, once the Crystal Poison crystalizes into a crystal core, it loses its infectiousness, or else Dean Ma Deburg would have surely been the first one to transform into a magical creature.
With the Crystal Core, it means there’s an energy source for the Battle Armor and a Power Core for the Molten Beasts.
On the other hand, the giant golems that Long Yi handed over to these top scientists have completely started their repair work. The greatest problem with the giant golems is the damage to their power system. In the process of restoring the power system, the researchers gained a completely new understanding of the flow of energy, and the method of making Power Cores has been improved. Although the energy output has not increased, the manufacturing process has greatly improved.
On the other hand, the factory under the Research Institute is also starting to construct new airships.
This was part of the original plan, to deploy a large number of ground forces through airships that do not need to occupy Dragon Knights. This was well received by the War Council, headed by the Emperor.
In the past, without the Crystal Cores, this was unthinkable. Now, with a large number of Crystal Cores, these temporarily shelved plans have naturally come to the fore.
Technology strengthens the military, this is what Long Yi values most. Long Yi always believes that advancing technology and stockpiling weapons are equally important. If there is enough time, advancing technology to produce high-level troops is much more useful than stockpiling a bunch of regular troops.
Therefore.
After all these matters have been improved, it finally comes to the Dragon Knights.
All along, Long Yi has not been concerned about the Dragon Knights. But that does not mean that he is not worried, it’s just that he does not have a better method for the time being. The powerful strength of the Dragon Knights in the Black Dragon Empire has always been a cause of concern for Long Yi. Firstly, the training methods of the Black Dragon Empire’s Dragon Knights are more ruthless, creating a violent combat style. Of course, this is not a problem, as long as the training can be managed, it is not a problem.
The most troubling point is the revoltingly mutated Dragon Knights of the Black Dragon Empire. Obviously, the direction of the Black Dragon Empire’s technological research has a major divergence with the White Dragon Empire. The Black Dragon Empire advocates a fast-paced style, the Black Dragon Emperor Kaniel is willing to set a high price for various researches. As long as it is within this price range, everything can be accepted.
The most direct example is the group of mutated Dragon Knights who have turned into monsters. This is something Long Yi could not bear.
And now, hearing that the Black Dragon Empire has opened the gates of Hell, intending to seek help from other Planes, this has forced Long Yi to start thinking about corresponding measures.
No matter what kind of enemy Long Yi faces personally, he doesn’t care. However, there is only one Long Yi in the entire White Dragon Empire, while the Dragon Knights of the White Dragon Empire have to face mutant Dragon Knights, and even powerful creatures from other Planes. Upon this, Long Yi can’t just sit back and watch.
Actually, speaking of the relationship with other Planes, Long Yi does have some. Whether it’s the Crystal Demons or the Demon Abyss Dragon, even the Demon Clan, and of course, the Celestial Clan.
However, although the relationship is good. Asking for help from them might be a bit difficult.
In fact, if it was in the past, Long Yi might have been at a loss. But now, he has some ideas.
Crystal Poison.
If you put aside the near-predatory reproduction feature of Crystal Poison, it is a very perfect semi-energy life form in itself. It can contain massive energy in a tiny body.
After the battle in the Crazy Demon plane, Long Yi resurrected using the power of the Giant’s scepter. Long Yi’s body fused with the Crystal Poison. These non-infectious Crystal Poisons stored an astonishing amount of energy, even to Long Yi’s surprise.
If these non-infectious Crystal Poisons can be implanted into a human body, I wonder if it can be successful.
This is what Long Yi has been dealing with lately.
With the help of the tablet and the Giant’s scepter, Ai Lin, Little Zi, Isrile, and Lingling are all assisting on the side.
Of course, the help of Ma Deburg, the Dean of the Crystal Core Academy, and Professor Ding Ge is indispensable.
Long Yi implanted his blood into a Crystal Core and cultivated the Crystal Poison in the blood. When a certain amount is reached and crystallization begins, he completely shattered the crystal and injected it into a mouse.
As a result of the first experiment, the mouse mutated into a monster over a meter in size, and then suddenly turned into a chunk of crystal in the cage.
This is difficult, but fortunately, Long Yi is not short of patience.
However, it is clear that some people are not focused on Long Yi’s experiment.
For example, Dean Ma Deburg and Professor Ding Ge, their gazes almost completely fell on Lingling.
It must be said, the crystal girl is indeed eye-catching. A beautiful figure along with her lovely appearance couldn’t be neglected, the crystal-clear body reflects the surrounding light, and the excellent refraction rate would blind everyone. Her voice is crisp and sweet, although she lacks the emotions that real humans possess, it’s impossible not to pay attention to her.
Especially, compared to another craftwork-level beauty - the Fine Gold Golem, Lingling has an incredibly good temper! Think about the Fine Gold Golem, she’d start mocking you immediately if you disagree. Heaven knows how her creator managed to stuff so many mocking words into her brain. But Lingling is completely different, no matter what you ask her, she always responds in an absolutely polite and courteous manner, she would never show any impatience.
At this point, Lingling should be considered a Crystal Demon, she has the body of a Crystal Demon, and also has a Crystal Core. This Crystal Core comes from Yamir’s body, the succubus from demon realm who inexplicably came to the Human Realm, and got her whole body full of Crystal Cores, Lingling’s Crystal Core is one of them. But Lingling does not know where she comes from. Because when she was a Crystal Core, she only had limited instincts. It was only when she got this body that she truly had an independent consciousness, this consciousness is a projection of Belle’s consciousness.
Ma Deburg, the Dean, and Professor Ding Ge both tried to figure out the origin of Lingling, but after a night of futile efforts, they finally gave up on this attempt. After all, Crystal Demons are a life form completely different from those of the Human Realm. They even completely broke away from the category of food and survive purely through energy.
However, understanding Lingling still helps, at least now, when it comes to their manufacture of Crystal Poison potions, it provides huge help. (To be continued.
