Noretta did not know what kind of expression she had when she walked into the room. She felt that every step she took seemed to be falling in an unknown direction, and all her thoughts were in a mess. All the conjectures that she had made before she came were swept away in her mind like a hurricane, but every conjecture was far from the light golden giant egg in front of her.
When she finally realized what she was doing, she was already sitting on a sky blue sofa in the room.
The furnishings in the room were a little strange. In addition to the giant egg and the pedestal in the center, there were only a bunch of magical devices next to the giant egg, a few sofas and a tea table by the window. These few furnishings made the room look a little too plain, but considering the current state of the owner of the room, such furnishings did not seem to be abnormal.
Some scattered thoughts began to float in Noretta's mind. This was the stress reaction after the shock had subsided. She subconsciously glanced at her friend next to her and saw her friend carefully put the dragon egg on the ground. The expression on her face was obviously much calmer than Noretta's.
Noretta recalled that it was Melita who led the team to send the relic of the Dragon God to Tarlonde. No wonder …
While the white dragon was thinking, Melita had placed the dragon egg and looked up. The ambassador of Tarlonde, who had personally sent the relic of the Deity to the Loren Continent, had a complicated expression on her face. She glanced at the giant golden egg in the middle of the room several times before she finally said hesitantly, "Madam … Enya, long time no see."
She thought it over and over again. It seemed that only by adding the word 'Madam' after the name of the former god would it be more appropriate.
"Indeed, long time no see, young blue dragon," Enya said with a smile in her voice. "The last time you sent me here, I was still in a state of hibernation, so in my sober memory … the last time we met was in Tarlonde."
The memory that she deliberately avoided surfaced uncontrollably in an instant. Melita could not help but picture the past in her mind. She remembered the magnificent temple, the long staircase, and the hall full of holy breath in the golden halo. The supreme and beautiful goddess stood in front of her high holy throne, looking down at her gently. At that time, she was as small as a speck of dust on the stairs of the temple …
She blinked, and the memories in her mind gradually faded away. The goddess on the high platform dissipated, and all she saw was a shiny, smooth eggshell under the sun.
"I … Ahem." A strange feeling flashed in her mind. Melita could not help but cough twice. "Sorry, I don't know what to say at this time. I'm not ready to meet you, and … Well, even if you give me time to prepare, I probably don't know what to say. "
"It's okay, it's normal." Enya's smile became more obvious. "I can see that both of you are a little nervous. Relax, do you want to drink something? Refreshing drinks are fine … "
(A friendly recommendation, "No Holiday for Actors" by Crow Guan. It's about the urban entertainment industry. It's rare to promote this genre. The main purpose this time is to offer milk to the gods.)
"Stop!" Before Enya could finish her sentence, Gwen could not help but stand up. He looked at the former Dragon God and the two Tarlonde messengers in horror. "Be careful, those drinks are still in the testing stage. You know their effect is a little too refreshing …"
Dragons were strong, but Hao Ren was also a Legendary Champion. He knew the effect of the "refreshing drink" made by the retired Dragon God. Even dogs would not drink it. If Melita and Noretta drank it directly for the sake of the Dragon God, it would lead to a diplomatic dispute! Then, even if they did not die, they would have to be carried out …
However, Enya's words directly choked Gwen back. "Don't worry, it's just ordinary black tea. Betty prepared it for me. I'm not an impulsive child. "
While they were talking, two teacups and a large teapot floated up from behind the giant golden egg. Under the control of magic, the teacups floated towards Melita and Noretta and filled themselves up. Then, they gently landed on the coffee table in front of the sofa.
The two Tarlonde messengers were stunned for two seconds before they picked up the teacups with a weird expression. They looked at each other a little helplessly and felt that the scene in front of them was beyond their understanding of the world. The Dragon God, whom countless Dragons worshipped and revered in the past, actually personally poured them a cup of tea …
"Thank … Thank you …" Melita finally reacted. She hurriedly thanked and put the teacup to her mouth. Under the maintenance of magic, the temperature of the black tea was maintained, but she did not feel it and directly drank it in one gulp. She even almost bit off a piece of the cup and swallowed it into her stomach. Fortunately, she reacted in the moment when her teeth touched the edge of the cup and quickly put down the teacup.
She did not know if it was really the effect of the tea, but she felt that her emotions were finally calming down a little, and some of her chaotic thoughts were gradually waking up.
She heard the familiar and gentle voice from the golden dome. "How is Tarlonde now? Are the other Giant Dragons now … How are they doing? "
Melita was silent for two seconds. She still could not treat the former god in front of her as a normal conversation partner, but at least on this question, she finally chose to say everything that she felt most intuitively. "… Now the situation is very bad. Ninety percent of our land has been completely burned, all cities are destroyed, and only a few factories and warehouses inside the mountains or underground were spared. The transportation and communication systems have been disintegrated, and Omega has left the planet.
"As for the Dragons … The remaining Giant Dragon is less than ten percent, and so far no healthy adult Giant Dragon has been found. Our brethren now have to fight against two … three kinds of post-war backlash at the same time. The first is the failure of the implants, and a large number of implants that rely on the Omega system to operate are gradually shutting down, becoming a heavy and stiff burden in our bodies, and even a fatal threat. We can only remove them from the body through crude and primitive surgery, and many of our brethren have suffered secondary injuries in the process.
"The second is the addiction of the booster. Most of the Dragons were once low-level Dragons. After leaving the booster, their nervous systems are suffering great pain. The only good news is that some of our brethren have gradually passed the most serious stage of the backlash. On the other hand, the countries of the Lolun Continent have jointly supported us with a large number of alchemy materials, and Leader Helagol has … He has taught us how to concoct those materials into ancient potions, which can help our brethren who are addicted to the booster to repair their nervous systems."
"Lastly, lastly …"
Melita hesitated for a moment. She looked at the golden giant egg, and finally, her expression gradually became determined.
"The harsh living environment is testing our will, and the chain reaction caused by the fading of the divine power is tormenting the clerics and attendants who were once from the middle and lower levels of the temple system. We have climbed out of the cradle, but it is too cold outside the cradle, so the members who are not determined enough can't help but miss the warmth of the cradle. But Leader Helagol, as the former supreme ruler of the temple system, has stabilized the situation in this regard, and all the Giant Dragons are becoming determined again."
The gentle pale golden light flowed on the surface of the giant egg. Enya let out a soft sigh, and the sigh was filled with relief. "It seems that even without me, you can indeed go on by yourselves … Helagol has served me for many, many years. No matter how heavy the burden behind this companionship is, it has improved our understanding. I can be sure that as long as Helagol is determined, the revival of Tarlonde is just around the corner. As for Andal and Balogel … their wisdom and experience are the greatest help to Helagol, and also your most precious wealth. "
"Please rest assured, we understand this very well." White Dragon Noretta had also finally entered the zone. She nodded solemnly and said, "We have built a new sanctuary city in Agundor, and in some of the more stable and safe areas, the pioneer camps and forward bases are gradually gaining a foothold. The three leaders are using their own methods and strength to lead our race, most of us … know very well what we should do."
"That's good, that's good …" Enya said slowly, her attention finally focused on the dragon egg beside Melita, which was one size smaller than her. "I noticed that you have brought a dragon egg? And it seems that it has hatched to the third stage. "
"This is the dragon egg that we have adopted together." Noretta immediately nodded and said, "We found a large number of healthy dragon eggs in the ruins of the hatching factory, and the Dragons are adopting them as temporary 'families'. Through the primitive hatching method, these healthy dragon eggs will become the first batch of truly healthy, pure Giant Dragon in 1.87 million years in this world …"
"The healthiest Young Dragon in a million years, facing the harshest environment in Tarlonde in a million years … They have a mission, and I'm afraid that the next dragon life will not be easy," Enya said in a calm and gentle tone. "But I still want to bless them … although my 'blessing' now has no effect."
Melita bowed her head and said very sincerely, "This kind of 'blessing' is very precious."
"They want to incubate the dragon eggs here." Gwen saw that the time was right and chimed in. "The preparation work at the embassy will take some time, and the two of them have just been sent here. They have a lot of work to do, and I'm afraid that they won't be able to take good care of the dragon eggs. There's a ready-made hatching facility here, and the royal attendants can help take care of it. I think it's quite suitable. Of course, this depends on your opinion. "
"I guessed it when I saw the dragon eggs," Enya said with a smile. "Of course, no problem. I have no objection, and I'm even happy to — I'm quite confident in taking care of dragon eggs and Young Dragon."
Speaking of this, she added with a smile, "And after all is said and done, even I am a 'tenant' of yours, just like the two little guys in the Looming Shadow Sector who refused to leave. You don't need to consider our opinions on how you arrange your properties."
She was obviously just being polite, and Gwen did not care much. He just smiled and nodded. His eyes fell on the two emissaries of Tarlonde. "What do you think of this arrangement? The dragon eggs can be placed in the hatching room here, and Enya can help take care of it. This is definitely more reliable than leaving it to anyone else, and you can come and take care of it at any time. "
"To be honest, I didn't expect things to develop like this." Melita could not help but sigh. She then nodded. "Of course, I have no objection. This is better than what we expected."
"I have no objection either." Noretta nodded and then rubbed her forehead. "Speaking of which, it's really hard to believe … I still wonder if I'm in an illusion … If I report this to President Andal or Leader Helagol, I'm afraid both of them will be shocked."
"I'm looking forward to seeing them shocked, especially Helagol," Enya immediately said with a smile. "He has been with me for more than a million years, and he has kept a straight face for more than a million years. Sometimes when I deliberately scare him, he just continues to keep a straight face in fear and trepidation … I'm really curious to see what he looks like when he's shocked."
Melita and Noretta were speechless.
They had already begun to think quickly about whether they should report what Enya just said …
With the arrangement of the dragon eggs settled, the atmosphere in the hatching room finally became relaxed. After that, the two messengers of Tarlonde talked about many things with their former goddess, including memories, the current situation, and ideas about the future. In fact, most of the time, it was Melita and Noretta who were talking, while Enya just listened quietly, just like she had done for more than a million years in her capacity as a goddess: listen and remain silent.
But this time, the listening was finally not so heart-wrenching.
Throughout the whole process, whether it was Melita, Noretta, or Enya, they deliberately avoided the topic of the final battle.
When the sun set, the two messengers of Tarlonde finally left. Only Gwen and Enya were left in the hatching room, but this time, there was a dragon egg floating with a soft luster in the room.
"I'll arrange for someone to make a pedestal and put it next to you," Gwen said as he looked at the dragon egg. "It's safer to put it on the pedestal. Otherwise, I always feel that it will roll around …"
There was no response from the golden giant egg. Enya seemed to be deep in thought and remained silent after Gwen's voice trailed off.
"Enya?" Gwen looked at the golden giant egg curiously. "What are you thinking about? Are you still thinking about Tarlonde? "
"Gwen, my friend," Enya finally spoke after another two seconds. Her tone was unprecedentedly serious. "Have you ever taken care of a cub?"
"Take care of a cub? You mean taking care of a cub? " Gwen froze for a moment and smiled a little awkwardly. "This … actually, I'm ashamed to say that back then … I mean, most of the 'back then' in my memory was either in the war or on the way to war. When the children were born one after another, I wasn't around. In terms of education …"
He finally reacted and stared at the golden giant egg with his eyes wide open. "Wait, don't tell me you … actually don't know how to hatch a dragon egg or take care of a Young Dragon?"
"… I know the knowledge, but I don't have any practical experience."
"No experience … That's right, how could you have any experience in this area!" Gwen stared at Enya's eggshell, dumbfounded. "Then just now you …"
"…"
Enya remained silent. Gwen stared at her for a long time and finally asked cautiously, "Could it be … because of your pride?"
The golden giant egg finally broke the silence. "… In short, I have a direction to work on."
