The approaching figure brought with it the breath of death, and Norton had the illusion that his life was quietly fading away with the footsteps. At this moment, a small hand held his hand and led it to a certain place - the vital point on Constantine's forehead. He lowered his head and saw that his brother, who had just woken up and accompanied him to release the candle dragon and exhausted his strength, closed his eyes and relaxed his body like a sacrificial lamb. "Eat me, brother." "If you eat me, you can recover your strength and become stronger. At that time, no cage can stop you." Constantine closed his eyes and waited for the sharp teeth of the dragon to bite, but in the end, the hand just gently stroked his forehead and retracted. He opened his eyes in shock, and his brother, who had a calm face, still did not move. "I can't bear it." Norton let out a long sigh. How could he bear to eat his brother? In the endless darkness, he was the only one to accompany him on the lonely throne, and the two of them warmed each other with their body temperature. Suddenly, time seemed to be dislocated. He and his brother returned to their old home more than 2,000 years ago, faced the blazing fire again, and returned to the situation of dying again, but this time there would be no "cocoon" to let them be reborn. Norton hugged Constantine and had no idea of resisting. Instead of eating his brother and fighting to the death, it was better to die here together.
Such behavior actually violated the nature of dragons. Dragons should be violent, cruel, and selfish. Maybe he also had some body failures in the long time, in the experience of becoming a human again and again, and in the separations again and again. Norton thought silently. "Your brotherly love makes me look like a villain. Nature is the law of the jungle. The big dragon eats the small dragon, and it wins all the way. The one who stands at the end can climb to the top of the food chain..." Luke frowned and stopped halfway through his speech. When he found that his thoughts were approaching a certain old pervert, he shook his head decisively. His body expanded rapidly and became larger, revealing his true form. The golden sacred giant horns and flowing feathers remain the same. The adult body, which should be less than 30 meters, has expanded to nearly 100 meters. The scales covering the whole body, the developed limbs and the pair of wings that cover the sky all tell that this is far different from the original Lanlong. If the previous Lanlong had a kind of divinity that was out of the world, the current Lanlong is a majestic divine punishment that makes people tremble. Norton stared at the huge dragon body in front of him, which he had never seen before, and a sense of absurdity surged in his heart. "What on earth are you?" Even the Dragon King has to abide by the basic laws. If you want to hatch a huge dragon body, you need enough energy and material accumulation to form a cocoon, and you also need enough time to reshape your body, but the dragon in front of him skipped this process in the blink of an eye. Whether it is science, words or alchemy, it is abnormal in any way! The unknown dragon did not answer Norton's question. He just thought that he might give Lanlong a new name while carelessly kissing the dragon. Gulu—— A swallowing sound was heard. The two brothers hugged each other tightly, and then disappeared without a trace. The dragon's amber eyes turned and looked at the bronze city, which was still beautiful in the ruins. He swam gently, and the green halo enveloped the entire city with his body as the center. The broken pillars stood up again, the frost and the flames slowly receded, the melted bronze returned to its original state, the ancient murals were pieced together bit by bit, and the time of the entire bronze city began to go backwards. In a moment, the majestic bronze city reappeared, but such a glorious city soon disappeared again.
With the huge dragon body as the center, the invisible black field unfolded, and the ownerless Nibelungen had no resistance and was rapidly eroded and occupied. When the last trace of bronze brilliance disappeared, there was only nothingness in the empty water. ... At noon the next day, in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River. The "Moniach" chose a good weather period to prepare for launching, and contacted the local meteorological bureau to give the most accurate forecast. Of course, they knew that yesterday's vision was caused by the unusual movement in the Bronze City, and the key point was to seek spiritual comfort. Luke and Caesar's second underwater mission began, and the two figures jumped into the water again, but this time they returned to shore in just ten minutes. After listening to Caesar's report, Professor Mans fell into deep thought, "You mean, the Bronze City disappeared?" Caesar carefully took off his diving suit, not letting the cold water touch him, and nodded slowly. "When we returned to the location yesterday, the Bronze City had disappeared, and there was a huge deep pit on the ground. Obviously, it was a trace left when the Bronze City was there." "Even a small city is a city. How did such a large Bronze City move?" Luke pulled a stool and sat down steadily, leisurely crossing his legs and talking nonsense. "Who knows? Maybe Norton sensed an invasion and installed a huge propeller on the bronze vessel?" "Let's not talk about whether Norton has the ability to do that. Moving a city will definitely make a lot of noise. The underwater environment will be hit by the reaction force of the propeller and leave traces. This is not true." Professor Mans frowned and shook his head, denying this hypothesis. Lu Mingfei, who was listening, also complained, "And that level of propeller only exists in science fiction novels. Boss, you might as well say that it would be more reliable to let Tiga transform and drag the bronze city to the starry sky." "You are ignorant. When I go back, I will invest in "The Wandering Earth" to open your eyes." Luke patted Lu Mingfei's head and raised his chin, "Moving a small city is nothing. Human imagination is endless. As long as you want to survive, even the earth will move for you to see." Zero looked at Luke intentionally or unintentionally and asked the key question. "If the Bronze City disappeared, would the Bronze and Fire Kings that might exist inside also disappear with it?" The Bronze City is not important, what is important is the Dragon King that might exist inside. "Perhaps no one knows the answer to this question." Luke spread his hands as if it had nothing to do with him. He leaned sideways and looked out of the boat leisurely. The sun was falling like broken gold, and the breeze blew across the water, creating sparkling waves. Everything looked so peaceful and beautiful. "The dragons' revival is counted in hundreds of years. If you miss this time, you may never get any news again in your lifetime." Mans sighed, "There is one more mystery about the countless dragons, although there are already too many to begin with, it's a headache." As the person in charge of this operation, the captain of the "Moniah", how should he write the file of this incident, "The Mystery of the Disappearance of the Bronze City"? It feels like it will be in "100,000 Whys". The good news is that the dragon murals taken by Caesar may have a lot of useful value. This may be the biggest gain of Kassel Academy in recent years, but compared with the location of the Dragon King, this gain is a little smaller. But in any case, the disappearance of the Bronze City means that this exploration has ended. Professor Mans, who did not give up, sent several other teams including Lu Mingfei and Ling to explore, but only to verify the authenticity. He already believed most of it in his heart, and at most he was a little lucky and prepared more materials for writing the report in advance.
The exploration team followed the route given by Caesar and came to a huge pit. They saw the traces left by the bronze city, but all they had left was a deep pit that was endless. The sun rose in the east and set in the west. When night fell, Professor Mans had to accept reality and announced that the mission was over and he would return tomorrow. ... Late at night, Lu Mingfei hesitated and knocked on Lu Ke's door. After the door opened, he spoke hesitantly. "Boss, I want to ask you for help with something." Lu Ke half leaned against the door, "Tell me." "I made an appointment with a friend to meet in person, but now I can't contact him, and I haven't seen him speak in the game group I joined together..." "Friends? Have you met in real life?" Lu Mingfei scratched his head, "No, but we chat often." "Oh, just an online friend. Who can tell the truth from the false in the online world? Maybe he just doesn't want to pay attention to you. Look at it." Feeling that Lu Ke didn't take this matter very seriously, Lu Mingfei was silent for a while, and his tone was unusually serious. "Boss, he is my friend. Before I met you and came to Kassel College, he was my only friend. Can you...can you help me ask Professor Mans for two days off? I want to go find him." The last message sent by Old Tang said that he was near the Three Gorges Dam, and there was also a selfie of him. According to the background, he was in a bus driving in a forest. With clues, there is a good chance of finding him. Lu Ke stared at him for a few seconds, took out a Cohiba from his pocket and lit it. He spoke lightly in the smoke. "Do you really want to find him so much?" Lu Mingfei nodded vigorously, with begging in his eyes, "Please, boss, I'm willing to do anything." Lu Ke scratched his hair, took out his mobile phone, and Norma's girl image appeared on the screen. "Norma, in my name, send a leave note for Lu Mingfei to Professor Mans's email, fill in the leave time for one week, call up the photos in Lu Mingfei's mobile phone, zoom in on the details, and compare the satellite photos to search for navigation." "Okay, it's been executed." The unexpected support made Lu Mingfei look at Lu Ke with tears in his eyes. "Thank you, boss. I'm so moved by you that I'm willing to give myself to you." Luke waved his hand in disdain, "Don't look at me with such disgusting eyes. Giving yourself to you is a woman's option. Men can only work like cows and horses to repay me." Here he paused, "Also, you'd better be prepared to find it, so as not to return disappointed." ... The sunset slowly sank, dyeing the sky blood red. The dense forest seemed particularly quiet under this blood-red sunset. The sun shone through the gaps in the leaves, casting mottled light and shadows. "Go forward a hundred meters and turn right." Lu Mingfei carried a backpack full of supplies and followed the instructions of Norma's sweet voice. He walked step by step and came to a place in the forest. When he saw the scene in front of him, he stopped and trembled slightly.
"What happened to make it like this?" The ground was charred black, and the body of the bus flowed all over the ground like melted chocolate, and after cooling and solidifying, it combined with the surface soil. Lu Mingfei gritted his teeth, his heart was in a mess, he didn't want to think about those bad possibilities, he gently called the mysterious brother. "Lu Mingze." "I'm here, brother." The smiling little devil had stood in front of him without knowing when, he was wearing a neat suit, his face was sad and happy, holding a bouquet of white roses for relatives and friends. "Do you know what happened to this bus?" "Who knows, maybe it was a gas explosion." The little devil gently placed the white roses on the wreckage of the bus, as if paying tribute to a grave, and then hugged Lu Mingfei's neck from behind, with a pitying tone. "Don't look for him, brother. The person you are looking for is dead here. Even if he is not dead, he has been buried in the belly of the beast." He sang softly, "Perhaps it is because of not knowing dreams that the displaced people chase after illusions." Listening to such a eulogy, Lu Mingfei suddenly felt a little sad, and tears fell one by one, wetting the ground. He remembered the night before he confessed to Chen Wenwen, when he and Lao Tang rushed to the rankings, and he remembered that he told him that brothers are like hands and feet, and women are like clothes, and he remembered that he always called him "Mingming". He also said that he would introduce the eldest brother to Lao Tang. Lao Tang also said that he would wait for him. Why so suddenly... A warm big hand was placed on Lu Mingfei's head and touched it. He raised his head with red eyes and saw a dirty and disheveled wild man. "Is there anything to eat?" The voice of the "savage" was weak. Lu Mingfei fell to the ground in fear, trying to push back, his sadness was thrown to Java, "What the hell are you! Finger?" "It's me, Mingming." "Savage" lifted up his messy hair, and Old Tang's face appeared in front of him, but at this moment he looked extremely haggard and in a very bad state. "You're finally here, I almost died here..." Lu Mingfei turned his head and looked at Lu Mingze hanging on his neck. The other party also had a look of seeing a ghost, and his face turned visibly embarrassed. It was like the embarrassment of proudly saying what you thought was the correct answer in class, despising others and then finding out that you were wrong, or the embarrassment of predicting that A-shares would rise sharply and desperately encouraging people around to buy, but after the National Day, they fell wildly, and you could only hide at home and dare not see anyone. Lu Mingze's face flushed and disappeared on the spot, along with his white rose. Lu Mingfei came to his senses and quickly helped the man up, took out some food and water from his backpack and handed it to him, "What the hell happened to you?" Old Tang took the food and gobbled it up, explaining incoherently, "I met a bitch on the bus, she was not good at anything, she lit a leaking gas tank, and then it exploded..." "I ran away with my life, my luggage is gone, my clothes are torn, I can't tell the way, and I've been hungry for three days."
It really was a gas explosion! Lu Mingfei was at a loss for words as a series of questions came to his mind. Why were there dangerous items like gas tanks on the bus? How could dangerous people suddenly appear in peacetime? Why didn't Old Tang try to go out if the forest was not big? Why didn't the relevant departments receive notification of the bus accident... "I'm alive." A satisfied sigh interrupted Lu Mingfei's thoughts. Old Tang patted his stomach with satisfaction, "Let's go. We agreed that you would take me around." Lu Mingfei was silent for a moment, smiled and nodded, and chose to put the questions behind him. Forget it, there are creatures like "dragons" in the world, so what else is impossible? In short, it's good to be alive.
