Night had long fallen. Neon lights flashed on both sides of the road. The city at night still exuded endless vitality. Row upon row of skyscrapers towered high into the sky.
However, if one were to look down from space, all of this would seem insignificant, just like a square inch of land.
This was a very unusual night. It was destined to be difficult to calm down. Dozens of main monitoring rooms on the ground had completely locked on to the dark sky.
In the lonely universe, the nine dragon corpses shone with a cold metallic luster. Their bodies were covered with black scales the size of palm-leaf fans.
Dragons, a legendary existence, should not have appeared in the world at all. But at this moment, they were really lying in the sky.
The images captured from the dark space were breathtaking and intimidating. The huge dragon horns were like forked ancient trees, powerful and mysterious. Its body was like a mountain ridge, strong and powerful. Its scales were like blades, shining with cold light. It looked majestic.
The nine huge lifeless corpses had a huge impact on human cognition. It subverted some of people's inherent ideas.

"Ye Fan, how has your life been for the past three years?" Many people were very concerned about Ye Fan and asked with concern.
"It's alright. My life has been very ordinary. Nothing special has happened in the past three years …"
At this moment, people at Liu Yunzhi's table came over to toast. They said a lot of congratulatory words. Everyone clinked glasses again and again. It was very lively.
The people who said they wanted to punish Ye Fan did not come to him alone. It was not until later that Lin Jia and Wang Ziwen came over one after another and each had a drink with Ye Fan alone.
Later, many people became drunk. Then everyone went to karaoke. The singing seemed to bring everyone back to their young and inexperienced school days.
"How many people have admired your youthful appearance. Do you know who is willing to endure the ruthless changes of time? How many people have come and gone with you? Do you know that I will always be by your side …"
Perhaps it was because they were really drunk. A pair of classmates who had fallen in love during their school days and had no choice but to break up after graduation looked at each other speechlessly.
As the song echoed, the female classmate actually lost control. Tears blurred her eyes and she burst into tears. Everyone tried to comfort her.
Due to various reasons, none of the couples among the classmates were able to go through with each other after graduation. Although they had carefully managed their campus romance, none of them had any results in the end.
Graduation meant a breakup. Perhaps it was a curse. Every year, the same tragedy would play out among the college graduates.
Unfortunately, this kind of tragedy was likely to continue for a long time. It was related to the impulsiveness of youth, the pressure of employment, the current state of society … and perhaps other factors.
Almost everyone chose songs from three years ago. Some of them sang with great emotion, pulling everyone's thoughts back to three years ago. The scenes of their school days were still vivid in their minds.
In the end, the "microphone hog" appeared. The drunk student occupied the microphone for a long time, but his voice was really unflattering. It could be said that the sky was falling and the earth was cracking, ghosts were crying and gods were howling. While destroying everyone's ears, it also brought a happy atmosphere and made everyone laugh.
Only when it was very late did the group leave Bright Moon Over the Sea City. There was still an event the next day, so they would return to their alma mater to take a look.
The students who came from afar were almost all booked in the same hotel, and the few students who had cars were responsible for sending them there.
"Lin Jia, I'll take you back to the hotel." Liu Yunzhi parked the Toyota next to Lin Jia.
Some of the other students wanted to take a taxi, but the seats in the cars next to them were really limited. They were too embarrassed to take the initiative to take Liu Yunzhi's car.
At this time, a Mercedes-Benz stopped by the roadside. Ye Fan got out of the car and walked over to the haggard female classmate. "I'll take you back."
Ye Fan sympathized with this female classmate. In college, she was a happy and simple girl who liked to cheer for her classmates outside the football field. Sometimes, she would even shyly give them a few bottles of mineral water.
But now that life was not going her way, she seemed very gloomy. Her face was pale, and her complexion was very bad. She rarely spoke the whole night.
At this moment, when she suddenly saw Ye Fan stop by the roadside and ask her to get in the car, she immediately felt grateful and at a loss. She hadn't received any attention the whole night, and at this moment, she was not used to being stared at by the surrounding students.
On the other side, when Liu Yunzhi saw Ye Fan drive over, he was stunned. Then, his expression suddenly became gloomy.
The surrounding people all had different expressions. Some were puzzled, some were puzzled, some were surprised, and some were complicated.
Everyone looked at Liu Yunzhi intentionally or unintentionally. The reality in front of them was completely different from what he had said.
At this moment, Liu Yunzhi felt his face burning, as if he had been slapped hard.
The few students who had "preached" to Ye Fan in a high and mighty manner also felt extremely awkward. They wanted to say something, but they didn't know what to say.
There were also a few people who revealed playful and strange expressions, especially those who had been drinking with Ye Fan at the same table. They seemed to feel that such a scene had hurt the reputation of Liu Yunzhi's small group.
At this moment, another two people walked over, opened the car door, and got in. They were Ye Fan's classmates who couldn't be more familiar with him.
The Mercedes-Benz gradually drove away with the few people, but many people still hadn't recovered from their shock. Liu Yunzhi's body was stiff. Facing the strange gazes of the crowd, he felt like there was a knife at his back …
At this moment, in the distant space, in the International Space Station orbiting the Earth, several astronauts had grim expressions. Their nerves were always in a state of tension, and it could be said that they were extremely nervous.
In the dark and cold space, the nine huge dragon corpses seemed to have existed since ancient times. Iron chains as thick as the mouth of a bowl stretched across the sky, connected to a huge bronze coffin, giving people a feeling of endless desolation and antiquity.
The decision makers on Earth had long agreed that if there were any major changes, they would immediately destroy the nine dragon corpses and the mysterious ancient bronze coffin.
But no one wanted such a thing to happen.
The nine dragons pulling the coffin came from the dark and lonely depths of the universe. Its value and significance were too great, and it was difficult to estimate!
Suddenly, the main surveillance room in the International Space Station captured a set of mysterious signals. It was some kind of unusual fluctuation. The target was close at hand. It was the huge bronze coffin that the nine dragon corpses were pulling. Mysterious fluctuations were emitted from the ancient and blurry patterns on it.
"Difficult to decipher …" The signal was sent back to Earth and was deciphered by the most sophisticated supercomputer, but it still couldn't make any sense of it.
The ancient patterns on the huge bronze coffin were covered in green rust, and it was difficult to see them clearly.
"After preliminary analysis, those bronze carvings are related to China's ancient legends." The surveillance rooms of various countries unanimously came to a similar conclusion. "The beast-shaped carvings on the huge bronze coffin are similar to some of the primordial beasts recorded in China's Classic of Mountains and Seas, and the figures in the bronze carvings are suspected to be gods …"
Although they could identify the origins of some of the bronze carvings, they still couldn't decipher the extremely weak mysterious signal. They had no clue at all.
