The sudden arrival of the Golden Twin-Headed Dragon on the plaza had shocked all of the Draconians. Of course, most of them were pleasantly surprised. Thus, in an instant, all of the citizens who had heard the news had gathered here. Even the ordinary Draconians who were in charge of transporting stones and other heavy labor had gathered here. In just a short moment, the plaza was so packed that not even a drop of water could trickle through. As far as the eye could see, it was a sea of people. Amongst the crowd, there were even Draconians who looked like isolated islands in the middle of the sea. After the crowd had gathered around for a while, someone finally shouted:
"The Goddess is here!"
Then, their Goddess was shocked. Lin was currently looking for a place to land her feet on her tiptoes. This careless fellow didn't pay attention to her surroundings at all. Suddenly hearing such a huge commotion, she instantly shivered. She swept her left head sideways and hit her own Divine Statue head-on. A loud crashing sound could be heard. In an instant, the scene was filled with dust and the smell of dust and gravel permeated the air. When the dust dispersed, I saw Lin staring at her Divine Statue in a daze. Currently, only two large claws were left on the pedestal. The head, wings and body had already been split into countless parts and scattered all over the place. If it wasn't for Elson's quick reflexes and using his Holy Shield to block a large amount of flying rocks, I reckon that with the strength of this monstrously strong woman, she could have spread her Divine Statue over two hundred miles away with just a single swipe of her head.
Of course, there were many casualties at the scene …
"This is the first time in my life that I've seen someone dismantle their own Divine Statue with such ease." Icetis crossed her arms and clicked her tongue in wonder. The expression on her face was very interesting. "Jingle, that little one's intelligence isn't that great. Yet, she brought out a group of people who are even more stupid than me."
A small head suddenly popped out from my pocket. She waved her toothpick-like arms and protested loudly, "Jingle is very powerful! Jingle's intelligence is also very high! " Then, she turned around and saw Lin and the rubble on the ground. She exclaimed in surprise, "Ah, even though they made a mistake, you can't just destroy the heart of a believer. Last time, when they turned Jingle's statue into an idiot that couldn't even hold a water jug, didn't Jingle say anything …"
Liliana slapped her forehead, as if she couldn't bear to read it. "Damn it … Even with my intelligence, I, Pope, don't know how to put this in the Bible."
"Err … I didn't mean to," Lin said apologetically as she looked at the stunned believers around her. "It's already broken … Looks like the glue didn't stick well. How about this, I don't have anything to do these few days, so I won't be leaving. Can you carve another one based on my appearance? " As she said, the Dragon God girl, who dropped the ball at this critical moment, used her tail to pull the rubble on the ground around her, trying to gather them together. Then, she shook her head in frustration. "Well, it really can't stick together."
In other words, if these stones are a little bigger, are you really going to use glue to stick your statue together?!
The group of believers were petrified, and no one said a word. I thought for a while and touched Shakina's arm. "It's not too late to quit now."
Shakina finally came back to her senses after hearing this. She quickly shook her head, but she probably couldn't think of an emergency plan in this situation. After all, not long ago, she was an explorer who carried a huge backpack and relied on digging graves all over the world to make a living. How could she have the ability to save the situation? Liliana rolled her big eyes. She probably felt that it was time for her to hide her achievements and fame. So, she took two steps forward and pulled Sona's tail (What kind of strange position is she pulling?). This made Sona bend down and whisper a few words to her.
After Sona listened to Liliana's instructions, she nodded in understanding and said loudly to the believers around her, "Goddess's revelation, our tribe's homeland has just been built, and there are many things waiting to be done. The people haven't received the true gospel yet, and the glory of God hasn't blessed every believer yet. Therefore, we can't afford to be extravagant. God loves the world and doesn't want the people to waste their precious energy to build a statue for her in advance. Otherwise, God would rather destroy her own statue. God has decreed that the foundation of the statue can only be laid on the day this city is completed. "
We were stunned as we listened on the side. Then, we couldn't help but look at Liliana with admiration. This girl really had too many wicked ideas in her head. I now suspected that she would be able to promote herself to the height of world peace just by eating two buns early in the morning. As the person in question, the Dragon God girl listened to all of this in a daze. She opened the mouth on her left head as if she wanted to say something. Icetis had been the leader of the five Protoss Cops for a long time, so she knew that Lin's brain wasn't enough at critical moments. So, she quickly raised her hand and the mouth on Lin's left head instantly closed. But then, Lin's right head spoke, "That, actually, if you really want to …"
"F * ck, I forgot that this girl has two heads now!" Icetis almost choked on her breath. She hurriedly raised her hand again, and the unlucky Dragon God girl was finally forced to shut up. She looked at us in confusion, and the two heads swayed back and forth at the same time. She asked through our mental connection, "Why don't you let me speak?"
"Anyway, just shut up …" Icetis waved her hand with an expression that said "I'm very tired". "With your intelligence, you can only be a mascot in the team."
Although the Dragon God girl was confused, she still quieted down. The righteous words that Liliana made up on the spot had the desired effect. She successfully explained why the Dragon God wanted to smash his statue without hesitation, and increased the loyalty of the gathered believers by at least 50% — if there was no problem with this setting. Looking at the lively atmosphere at the scene, I gave Shakina a look. The Dracon girl didn't have the same IQ as her goddess at this time. She immediately nodded in understanding and let the ordinary believers go back to work. It was obvious that almost no one at the scene was willing to leave, but the believers also knew that they couldn't bring trouble to the gods because of their willfulness. So, in a burst of noise, the crowd finally slowly dispersed, and finally, only the group of old men who came out of the city hall were left. They were the high-level believers of the Dragon God, and of course, it was not good to forcibly drive them away.
Lin folded her wings and carefully squatted at the entrance of the city hall. She was obviously a huge beast that was hundreds of meters tall, but she showed such a pitiful and honest look. It was really funny. She looked at the crowd dispersed, blinked, and said, "That, can I speak now?"
"Speak, speak," I was almost speechless with this idiot. "I really don't know how you maintain your faith with such an idiot character. If Majesty is two dollars and five cents per pound, then even if you sold yourself, you wouldn't be able to afford two bottles of Wahaha."
"It's okay," Lin lowered her body and scratched the tip of her nose with her claws. "Why should the believers be afraid of me? I usually have a good relationship with the believers. If they like you, they will naturally like you sincerely. If they are afraid of you, then what's the use even if you force them to recite their prayers a thousand times? "
Lin's mind instantly switched to her inconceivably serious and serious mode of lecturing. This unreliable Dragon God who was always causing trouble would occasionally suddenly become especially reliable, and the words she spoke were almost like the philosophy of life, the reason for which no one could explain until now. Hearing her say that, I was at my wit's end. No matter what, it sounded like it was true. Although Lin's own performance was not very convincing. I went forward and knocked on her claws that were one size bigger than a main battle tank. "Alright, quickly change back. Don't embarrass yourself here. Are you still waiting for them to build a new statue for you?"
Lin replied with an 'oh', and in the dazzling light, she turned back into the thin, small, and weak girl who was always popular. Beside me, Shakina's smile was very forced. "Actually … the construction of the statue was originally voluntary. Also, after the statue is built, many people will be full of motivation. Sometimes, spiritual power is more useful than abundant resources. But after the Goddess made such a ruckus today … Hmm, probably everyone will be even more motivated. Maybe they will work even harder to complete the city as soon as possible and build the statue again … "
"Alright, you don't have to find a platform for her anymore." Monina helplessly patted the back of Lin's head. "She is used to causing trouble all day long."
I looked up at the sky. At this time, the sun had completely set, and the night was getting darker. According to the rules, it was almost time for Sandora's meal. Originally, we had planned to go to the Holy City to meet with Vanilla, but it seemed that we couldn't go anymore. Regardless of whether it was the dracons or the Crow God Religion, they were both in the stage of hard work. One meal from Sandora was enough to eat half of their annual GDP. We couldn't do that, right?
However, just as I was about to bid farewell to Shakina and the others, Sona suddenly remembered something. "Oh yeah, two days ago, the dracons who went on a long journey discovered some strange things. Our scholars couldn't understand what they were. I feel that they are similar to the things in the heavenly cities. Do you guys … want to go and take a look?"
The elder sister immediately nodded in agreement. "Of course, what is it?"
"Sister …" I touched the elder sister's arm and pointed at Sandora who was secretly grinding her teeth. "It's time for dinner."
"Oh, it's okay." Sandora's ears were sharp. She immediately agreed. "Let's eat later today. We have important matters to attend to. Oh yeah, Ah Jun, did you bring any snacks? I just want to fill my stomach. I have finished all the snacks I brought."
I thought for a while and took out ten pounds of cake from my dimensional pocket. I passed it to Sandora and said, "Mm, you just have to make do with it."
Shakina and Sona were speechless.
Thus, Sandora held the eighteen pounds of cake and followed everyone into the city hall. After passing through the city hall's main entrance, the cake turned into sixteen pounds. Shakina led a large group of draconic grandpas and a few foreign scholars behind us. The city hall didn't have many decorations. Everything adhered to the simple and practical style. The moment we entered, we saw a large hall. The hall now looked like a garbage dump. It was filled with all kinds of old things. There were small groups of researchers gathered around the hall. They were carefully checking the old tiles and scrolls that looked like they would shatter with a touch. Some young draconic people carefully raised their tails to avoid touching the fragile antiques around them. They carried the dusty unearthed relics quickly through the hall. This was the scene in front of us. Shakina introduced to everyone. "The travelers of our tribe have traveled to the areas that were once ruled by the Draconic Empire. They will bring back all the ancient relics that they can find. Thanks to the power of God, most of these things were sent here intact. In addition, many elders personally went to the excavation sites of the ancient relics and the ruins of the ancient Draconic Empire to copy the writings and reliefs. The things in this hall have not been sorted yet. The knowledgeable elders and foreign scholars will help to identify these things. Then, the valuable things will be sent to the top for research. This is how we search for the knowledge of the Draconic past. "
"In fact, in the beginning, we didn't even know how to start this work." Sona led us to an automatic floating platform. This floating platform was a unique "elevator" device in this magical world. "Although we want to restore the Draconic culture, when the people who traveled far away sent back the things they found, we didn't know what to do. No one has relevant experience in the field. The world of draconic people has almost never received any education. No draconic person has ever touched the academic field. Because the entire world once excluded us from the civilized world. Draconic people have no culture. All of our knowledge is secretly learned from other races. It was really difficult at that time. We have always yearned for freedom. But when the real freedom is in our hands, we found that we don't even know how to write the word 'freedom' … We have been treated as barbarians for too long. We almost became barbarians. "
"After these things had been piling up for a long time, we finally found some knowledgeable old people among our people," Shakina continued, "Dracon's lifespan is extremely long, and some of the old people were from … well, not so bad times. They were educated or had followed scholars of other races as assistants. That was a long time ago. After that, no scholars would treat the Dracon as an assistant because they felt that the Dracon's intelligence wasn't developed enough. These old people knew how to deal with ancient relics, and they also understood the ancient language. More importantly, they knew how to deal with these complicated processes in a brilliant way. Then, the Crow God Sect also gave us a lot of help. Vanilla sent scholars. Finally, the scholars of the different races joined in. Some people who were originally more lenient towards the draconic race were very interested in the Draconic Kingdom that was being established in the southern region. Most of them were experts who specialized in the history of draconic races, and a few of them stayed behind. In this way, our work was finally able to continue smoothly. "
Shakina and Sona talked about the various things that they encountered at the beginning of the construction of their homeland. Many of them were difficulties that seemed completely hopeless at that time. But now, they still had a smile on their faces when they recalled it. From their narration, I could understand that the world's acceptance of draconic people was already the general trend. Although many people were quite not used to seeing the draconic people who were once regarded as' high-level livestock 'as free people, their stubbornness was ultimately meaningless. And some of the different races who originally had a sympathetic attitude towards draconic people (although this group of people was rare, it wasn't non-existent) also had the opportunity to lend a helping hand to Shakina and the others. With the help of the powerful Crow God Sect, it seemed that there was no need for me to worry about things here.
In fact, I felt that according to the current trend, not only would the draconic people rise, but the entire mother continent might even usher in an era of draconic people. It shouldn't be long before the Draconic Empire would once again become the most powerful country in the world — there was no doubt about it.
Because no other race had a stronger backing than them.
Putting aside the Dragon God for the time being — this was a little far from mortals, and Lin didn't seem to be very reliable. Let's talk about the draconic relatives … Right now, the draconic people had established a long-term relationship with the group of Dragon Aspects created by the old Empire. Both sides had set up a portal in their respective gathering places. This was a race that could summon groups of dragons. Who in this world would dare to provoke them? In addition, the draconic people themselves had obtained power. Although they still didn't know magic, through the power of faith and learning from their distant relatives, they were able to use Divine Arts and Draconic language. The power of these two things could be heard from their names alone. Currently, the draconic people still lacked organization and civilization, but these two factors were slowly being made up for. They were rebuilding their homes and culture, and it wouldn't be long before they would be able to get rid of the current situation of being a 'barbarian'.
Under this premise, perhaps the draconic Empire would soon reappear.
I looked at Shakina and Sona beside me. These two girls who used to only worry about their three meals a day probably didn't think so much. The current draconic people also didn't have too high of an ambition: having enough to eat and wear warm clothes was the biggest goal that they could think of. But when they discovered that they had such great power in their hands, so much so that they could take revenge on any race that had oppressed them …
That would depend on Lin's teachings and the ancient souls who were the clones of the Imperial Army's officers to coordinate with this world. I believed that they wouldn't disappoint me. The draconic people wouldn't go down the wrong path.
While I was deep in thought, we had already arrived at the second floor of the stone building. There were many small rooms along the corridor. It seemed that they would be used as offices in the future. Shakina led us straight to the innermost room. After pushing the door open, I realized that this room was much cleaner than the other rooms. There weren't too many junk piled up. There was only a big table in the middle of the room with two empty shelves on both sides of the wall. The thing that Shakina and Sona wanted to show us was placed on the table. It was a shiny hexagonal plate.
"This is it. We found it in an ancient relic," Sona said happily.
Sandora quickly stepped forward and picked up the hexagonal plate. She turned it over and over to examine it. Then, she said affirmatively, "Data Terminal. It's a magic-powered model."
"Oh, so it's a Data Terminal." I was a little disappointed. I had thought that it would be something amazing, but it turned out to be this. No wonder Shakina and Sona couldn't tell what was useful and what wasn't. Their impression of all the equipment in the Empire was that they didn't know what it was …
However, what Sandora said next stunned me.
"According to this small mark, this thing should have been … used by your sister."
