It was true that Shi Zhen was a half-blood demon, but he had a bloodline that did not belong to demons or natives.
This special bloodline created the famous Dragon Hunter.
The origin of this bloodline had to be explained from Shi Zhen's background.
If categorized, Shi Zhen's father, who was also that demon's race, should be a phobia.
Phobia belonged to the lowest level of demons in the Abyss, but in the eyes of the Abyss natives, they were the most evil and most terrifying demons. This was because they looked too much like ordinary natives. Their horns were also very small and could be covered with a hat and hair to blend in with the natives. Phobia's favorite food was the flesh of the natives. Basically, if a phobia sneaked into a native town, it would not take long for the town to be completely devoured.
Phobia were also good at disguising and learning. They also had the ability to control people's hearts. It could be said that they had the highest level of Fear.
Even if other demons killed Abyss natives, they would only find them an eyesore and would not deliberately hunt them down. Demons also had their own pride. To them, Abyss natives were just reptiles that looked disgusting. They did not mind wiping them out, but they would not deliberately hunt them down.
The Fear Devils were different. The abyssal natives were their prey.
Therefore, phobia were hated and feared by the Abyss natives.
Naturally, the half-blood demons who were mixed with the Phobia Demons didn't get any benefits either. On the side of the natives, they would be hated and even burned to death. On the side of the demons, because their phobia bloodline was too inferior and their strength was low, they were even less favored.
It could be said that Shi Zhen's childhood and adolescence were spent in disgust and disgust.
Even his mother, a native of the Abyss who was described as gentle by others, was hostile towards Shi Zhen.
The only one who could bring Shi Zhen warmth was his phobia father.
However, although Shi Zhen's father was a phobia, he was different from most phobia demons. He did not feed on natives. Instead, he consumed demon blood.
When he was young, Shi Zhen noticed that the more demon blood his father consumed, the stronger he became.
At that time, Shi Zhen didn't know what was going on until one day, when his father died in a demon monastery while hunting a curly-horned demon. Shi Zhen painstakingly found his dying father and escaped to a forest where the demons didn't dare to enter.
But it was too late.
On his father's deathbed, Shi Zhen learned of his father's secret.
Although his father was a Phobia Demon, he came from a mysterious place known as the Land of Gods.
Shi Zhen wanted to ask what the Birthplace of Gods was, but his father shook his head and didn't answer. He only said, "The Birthplace of Gods is both the beginning and the end. There is no need to care about it, and there is no need to ask about it. That is not the home of our race. "
After that, his father remained silent about the rest of the information about the Land of Gods.
He only left behind his last words: "Inside my body, there is a filth that cannot be destroyed. That is the blood of God's Wrath … I shouldn't have let it stay, but I am unwilling to destroy it. Shi Zhen, I'll leave the blood of God's Wrath to you, my most beloved son. If possible, I don't want you to bear this terrifying bloodline. "
"But I'm worried that after I die, your situation will become extremely bad. Perhaps the blood of God's Wrath can help you get through this. "
"If you don't fuse with the blood of God's Wrath, then get rid of it. Don't let it fall into the hands of the demons, especially the Demon Lords."
After his father died, Shi Zhen finally chose to fuse with the blood of God's Wrath.
Because he wanted to avenge his father.
And to avenge his father, he needed more power.
After fusing with the blood of God's Wrath, Shi Zhen finally understood why his father called the blood of God's Wrath a filth that couldn't be destroyed. It was because the blood of God's Wrath was the tainted blood of a Demon God.
A power that could taint the blood of a Demon God definitely came from a source far beyond the Demon God himself.
And his father could strengthen himself by devouring demons, not because of the power of the Demon God's Blood, but because of the tainted power.
Shi Zhen didn't know where the tainted power came from, but after fusing with the blood of God's Wrath, he knew the true name of the tainted power: Laktavera.
Laktavera's taint was a curse.
One had to continuously sacrifice high-energy blood and let Laktavera taint it. Otherwise, it would taint one's bloodline.
And once one's bloodline was tainted, one wouldn't be far from death.
Although it was a curse, at the same time it cursed you, it could also give you a portion of the blood's power through the blood you provided.
In other words, when it squeezed you dry, it wouldn't completely squeeze you to death. After hitting you with a stick, it would still give you candy to eat.
Although compared to the tainted blood, the power obtained wasn't much, but through the power that flowed through the gaps of his fingers, Shi Zhen's father's power exceeded the upper limit of a fear demon.
And after Shi Zhen inherited the blood of God's Wrath, he naturally obtained this curse.
If Shi Zhen wanted to obtain power, he had to provide blood within 15 days of fusing with the blood.
It was important to note that once the type of blood was determined, it couldn't be changed. For example, Shi Zhen's father chose to sacrifice the Demon God's Blood, so he hunted only demons.
At that time, Shi Zhen couldn't even win against the weakest little demon, Hovering Demon. He couldn't even win against the native warriors.
In this situation, Shi Zhen didn't know how to provide blood to the blood of God's Wrath.
Perhaps the heavens would always leave a way out, but Shi Zhen finally met a suitable sacrifice during his most difficult time: a dragon cub with a thin bloodline.
The reason why other demons didn't dare to enter where he was now was because this was the territory of an Abyssal Dragon. And this dragon cub was the child of one of the Abyssal Dragon's servants.
Not long after it was born, it was full of curiosity about the outside world, so it sneaked out of the dragon's den. Then, Shi Zhen met it.
After sacrificing the dragon cub, from that day onwards, Shi Zhen began his "dragon" hunting journey.
After thousands of years, he finally became a famous Dragon Hunter.
That was Shi Zhen's general experience.
He didn't become a "Dragon Hunter" because he hated the Abyssal Dragon. It was because of the curse of the God's Wrath inside him.
Angor didn't know what to say about the curse. It seemed to be a good thing because the curse gave Shi Zhen a new life. But in the end, it also brought him death.
Therefore, it was hard to say whether the curse was good or bad.
Still, Angor was curious about the curse. What kind of creature was this Laktavera that could taint a demon's blood?
Angor couldn't help but look at Laplace.
"I don't know. I've never heard of such a curse before. I've never heard of such a name." Laplace nodded.
"Have you heard of the Divine Birth Land?" Angor was a little disappointed. He considered and asked again.
Laplace shook his head again.
Angor shrugged and didn't ask anything else. He didn't get an answer, but he had his own guesses.
He had heard of the "Paradise of Gods" before.
He heard the name from the descendant of the Lord of Flameless, Orucia.
According to Orucia, the "Paradise of Gods" referred to the ultimate destination he was looking for — Asgard.
Angor didn't know if this "Paradise of Gods" was the same. If it was, then Shi Zhen's father might be a demon who escaped from Asgard.
Orucia would probably be very excited if she knew about this. Unfortunately, Angor never went back after leaving the Abyss Plane. He didn't even contact Fafnir, let alone Orucia.
Angor tossed these thoughts aside and looked at Laplace. "What's Shi Zhen's personality like? Like Mushroom Lady … does he have something special? "
Angor really wanted to say that he was difficult to deal with. But when he remembered that Shi Zhen was Laplace's follower, he chose his words carefully.
Laplace said, "In his memories, other than improving his strength, he almost never did anything else."
In other words, Shi Zhen was a man who pursued power above all else.
Angor was a little surprised. He assumed that the bunny girl went offline in such a hurry because Shi Zhen was difficult to deal with. Also, Laplace's frown didn't look right.
But Shi Zhen didn't seem to have a problem with his personality.
Laplace seemed to have guessed Angor's thoughts. "His personality isn't important. What's important is the method he used to improve himself."
"Dragon Hunter."
And Barregon was a dragon.
This was why the bunny girl was in such a hurry. She was afraid that Barregon would die if she waited too long.
"That's true." Angor considered. "But since Barregon can go offline, it shouldn't be a problem.
Also, special NPCs like Meiji and Mushroom Lady only inherited Shi Zhen's personality. They didn't inherit their real identities or memories. Instead, they were given new identities by the Wonderland. "
Since Shi Le told Barregon that he was a gravekeeper, this was most likely a new identity given to him by the Wonderland.
Angor didn't know why a Dragon Hunter would be assigned as a gravekeeper by the Wonderland after entering the Dream Crystal.
This sounded a little magical and realistic.
Angor didn't think it was a big deal. But just in case, he decided to go online and check.
Laplace didn't go online with Angor. Instead, he stayed behind to guard the graveyard.
Angor closed his eyes and entered the tree of authority. Using his control over the Wonderland's authority, he began to search for keywords.
The first one he searched was "Shi Zhen".
Soon, some information came back.
Considering the intensity of the information, it would take Angor at least half a day to find all the information. Angor didn't want to wait for half a day, so he only checked the most basic information and exited the search.
From the basic information, Angor could tell that Shi Zhen was indeed a person with a special talent. The Wonderland dungeon he was in was called "Misty Island Dragon's Graveyard".
Shi Zhen was the only gravekeeper in "Misty Island Dragon's Graveyard".
With that confirmed, Angor began to search for the second keyword: Misty Island Dragon's Graveyard.
The first thing he needed to find was the location of the Misty Island Dragon's Graveyard.
Since the graveyard was already activated, it was easy to search for it. Angor soon found its location, and he even found out the conditions to manifest the graveyard.
As Angor expected, there were two conditions to manifest the graveyard. First, the surface of the Dream Crystal. Second, the bloodline of a dragon.
Barregon went from Rabbit Town to the settlement on the surface, which fulfilled the first condition. Barregon himself was a multi-headed dragon, which also had a dragon bloodline, which fulfilled the second condition.
The Misty Island Dragon's Graveyard was already halfway online.
The real trigger was when Barregon agreed to enter the graveyard with the gravekeeper, Shi Zhen.
As for the location of the Misty Island Dragon's Graveyard, it wasn't fixed. Like the entrance to the silver coral, it could be moved at any time.
However, the entrance to the Misty Island Dragon's Graveyard was where Shi Zhen showed up, which was … the settlement on the surface.
However, the entrance to the Misty Island Dragon's Graveyard was hidden by Shi Zhen, which prevented other people from seeing it.
With that, Angor closed the search window. He could still find out more information about the Misty Island Dragon's Graveyard, but it would probably take him another day or two.
Angor decided to leave it aside for now. He would wait until he saw the Graveyard Dragon's Graveyard with his own eyes.
Angor's mind left the tree of authority and used Nightmare Illusion to log into the Dream Crystal.
He chose to log in near the settlement.
As soon as Angor appeared, he saw a white figure hopping to his side.
It was the rabbit girl.
Following the rabbit girl were two mini cave dragons. One of them was three-meter-long, which Angor assumed to be Cuculus. As for the other one, it was a shorter one with a milky-white body.
"You're … the human who came with Luigi?" Cuculus was surprised. The rabbit girl already told him that she went offline to ask for help.
According to Kukulus' guess, the person she was asking for help from was probably Luigi or Gleipnir. However, who would have thought that the person who came wasn't one of those two, but a very inconspicuous human in his eyes.
Angor bowed slightly. "It's me."
"She … didn't she ask for help?" Cuculus pointed at the rabbit girl and gave Angor a doubtful look.
It was as if he was questioning, 'Is she asking you for help?'
Angor didn't say anything. However, the rabbit girl walked out from behind Angor with a dissatisfied look. "This is Mister Angor! My true self told me to come here! "
The rabbit girl purposely added "mister" behind Angor's name, and also mentioned her true self.
Angor understood that the rabbit girl was trying to support him.
Cuculus didn't know what was on the rabbit girl's mind. But when he heard the way she addressed Angor, he and Luskania looked at each other and saw the confusion in each other's eyes.
Who was this human called Angor?
Why did the great being value him so much?
Even his true self had to call him "mister"?
They couldn't ask such questions right now, so they had to keep them to themselves for now. However, Kukulus' attitude toward Angor changed after hearing the rabbit girl's words.
He no longer questioned Angor's decision. Instead, he and Luskania stood aside and watched Angor's every move.
