Civilization: Beyond Two Worlds Novel - Chapter 526

Chapter 526: 526

The Son of the Final Plague

The violent explosion and shock woke Lily up from her coma.

She looked around in a daze. The strong wind was blowing against her face. She was flying in the air. There were alchemical machines that looked like wings on her back and waist. What had happened earlier surfaced in her mind.

She was heavily injured by Tris ‘sneak attack. The highly corrosive mysterious elements instantly entered her body and corroded her. Even though Kant had extracted and decomposed the poison for her as quickly as possible, he was still severely injured.

After that…

She begged Kant to leave as soon as possible, but Kant ordered the alchemy armor to take her away while he stayed behind to stop Tracy. She struggled desperately as she watched the Fire Stealer gradually leave. Her mind was in turmoil, and her injuries and fatigue surged in her heart. Then, she fainted.

The dragon race’s strong physical fitness and healing ability allowed her to wake up very quickly.

However, it was no longer the scorching and dark River of Origin.

Instead, it was a patch of icy blue.

He had returned to the blue zone from the red zone.

Kant!

” Put me down!” Lily struggled as the figure of that person flashed in her mind.

“Ma ‘am, please don’t disappoint father’s kindness.”

The shaking of the ground floor even reached here. The surrounding stone walls kept shaking off the rubble. The terrifying aftershock indicated that there was a fierce battle, but Lily was more surprised than that.

“Father?”

She remembered this voice.

Lily was stunned for a moment. Then, she said loudly,” Since you have your own consciousness, you should come with me to help Kant! Although he was a Fire Stealer, and his alchemy skills and spatial spells were also very powerful, as a warrior, his strength and skills were not up to standard! There’s no way we can resist Tracy’s surprise attack!”

Horus hesitated and remained silent.

After a short while, it said,” I have been given intelligence and life, but there are no mandatory contracts or rules. I have the ability to distinguish right from wrong and judge right from wrong, as well as the authority and rationality to make independent decisions. I also have emotions similar to intelligent creatures. Lady, rationality and emotion are in conflict in my machine soul. Worry burns the chip. Please believe that I hope for my father’s safety more than you do.”

“Then we’ll immediately…” Lily said anxiously.

“But my answer is still no.”

“Why?”

“Because I trust my father, just like you and Miss Gorilla trust him,” Horus said calmly.

The Dragoness was stunned, and then she became even more anxious. I believe there is a limit! He was clearly trying to be brave, and it was because of Ah Xing’s matter that he had lost his mind! That’s why he did such a suicidal thing!”

” Yes, Ma ‘am. You’re right. Father is trying to be brave, and he lost control of his anger because of what happened to Ms. Gorilla. But he’s definitely not sending himself to death. I know him better than you do.”

Horus slowly said,” Father is even more afraid of death than you think. It is precisely because he is afraid of death that he forced himself to be brave. He has always forced himself to be brave. When he was in Bright Sand, he was weak. When he faced an entire Viscount territory, he chose to force himself to be brave and killed them all. Valentan was like this, Danfeng Lucerne was like this, and you don’t know about other things. He is also the same. This time, he will definitely do the same.”

” I feel sorry for his decision to be brave.”

” But full of confidence.”

” He must have made up his mind to give up some things, but that doesn’t include his life. He’s more afraid of death than you think because the people he cares about want him to live. Those people are much more than you think and know.”

” Therefore, I believe in my father’s judgment and decision. There is no room for us to intervene in the upcoming battle. Moreover, your injuries are no longer enough to continue a high-intensity battle.”

“Therefore, my lady, please leave with me,” Horus said in a deep voice.

The voice of the Transformers was low and calm. Its magnetic electronic synthesized voice was filled with the demeanor of a leader. It was reassuring and extremely reliable.

It was hard to imagine that before this, when he heard Kant order him to leave with Ah Xing, his son’s voice and opposition were even louder and more intense than Lily’s.

Lily was silent.

The pain in his abdomen continued. Tracis ‘attack did not just tear his body apart. The greatest consumption and pain was the terrifying corrosion and decay, which consumed a large amount of Yuan Qi.

Although Long Niang was screaming loudly, she knew that her fighting strength had been greatly reduced. Her hands and feet were still cold and she was sweating profusely. The fear and despair from before were still lingering in her heart.

“At least…” ” Put me down,” she said.” I’ll leave on my own. Go back and help Kant.”

“Although I really want to do so.” Horus replied,” But Father’s order is to send you to the entrance to the Underworld. I’m inclined to do so because I want to make sure that you don’t have the strength to secretly chase after them.”

“You!”

” Please don’t speak. I want to send you to a safe place. The less time we spend, the faster I can get back to my father.”

Horus threatened,” So please don’t interfere or cause trouble, and don’t try to struggle or get rid of me. Madam, I have to explain to you that as a high-end alchemical mechanical life form developed and created by my father, my internal structure is delicate and fragile. Any attack or collision may destroy my structure and cause a major blow to my combat strength and functions. Therefore, if you don’t want me to be unable to help in battle because of my damaged functions, then don’t try to suppress me with a surprise attack and go to help my father…”

“.. Alright, shut up. You’re so noisy!”

After saying that, Lily’s hands and feet hung down, allowing Horus to hang her in the air and fly forward. She did not say a word, probably resigned to her fate.

However, endless regret and unwillingness gnawed at his heart.

In the end, she was still powerless and unable to protect others. She could only let others protect her.

Horus accelerated as his wings spewed out flames.

Passing through the steep slope of the cave, they traveled through the icy blue world. This was already the blue zone. The glowing plants and crystal clusters shone with a dreamy light, like a fairyland. However, now, the icy blue light had gradually changed color, becoming deeper and more evil. The surging River of Origin at the bottom gradually affected the wonders above.

After all, before the ancient people stepped into this underground world, it was empty, silent, and dark.

The seeds were sown, the river flowed, and the mysterious elements seeped through layers. Thousands of years had passed, and they had slowly been stimulated to produce this strange scene.

As she passed by a sea of dreamy crystals, Lily’s body shook and then struggled.

“Wait a minute!”

Horus was already getting impatient. After all, the Transformers said that they trusted and obeyed, but the worry in their hearts was growing. They wanted to fly to the entrance and leave the dragon lady behind so that they could go back and fight alongside their father. They had finally coaxed the female dragon to stop causing trouble and struggle, and now they were here again?

“What are you waiting for?” it asked impatiently. Father is having fun with Tracy downstairs. Stop looking!”

Lily did not understand the jargon, but that was not the main point.

“Look down there! It’s gone!”

“Who?” Horus asked.

“I don’t know which one it is, it’s rotten beyond recognition-but it’s gone!”

“It’s the giant dragon we saw here!” Mother Long said sternly.

The Transformers condensed their wings and descended rapidly. They released Lily at a low altitude and transformed into a human. They landed in the dreamy blue sea of flowers, their masks emitting light to scan the surroundings.

Lily landed on the ground and covered her stomach with a frown. It’s gone.”

They had found the entrance to the passage and followed the passage into the blue zone. They had found the dragon corpse in a sea of dreamy flowers, and they had also found the Echo Stone it had left behind.

Now, the huge and deformed body had disappeared without a trace.

Horus was alert and released a miniature probe to scan the surroundings. Dragon Maiden looked at the mess on the ground, the crushed glowing flowers, and the traces of corrosive blood seeping into the ground. After a while, Lily looked incredulous and exclaimed.

” I didn’t find an ambush. It shouldn’t be nearby.” Horus said,” What?”

“It…”

” It might have taken a human form,” Lily said slowly.

“What?” The Transformers was shocked. Isn’t it already dead?”

Long Niang was silent, and her pale face was unprecedentedly solemn.

After a moment of silence, she slowly said,” You’ve seen Tris, Vines, and Luz. Do you think they are still alive or dead after being corrupted by the mysterious elements?”

“Of course it’s alive…” Horus replied subconsciously.

It suddenly stopped talking, and the red light on its visor shook violently.

Lily lowered her eyes and whispered,” This substance has never been seen before. It just showed a new characteristic.” Is it strange?”

There were countless examples in history of the matter of outer space corroding living beings and turning harmless lives into cruel and crazy foreign objects. It was not surprising.

“We need more information!” Horus analyzed the situation for a moment and said decisively.

“Then hurry up.”

Where could he find more information?

Other than Tracy, there were a total of six dragon envoys who had entered this place and been killed. They had seen four of them: the crazy dragon Ochwil, the unknown dragon corpse in the Crystal Flower Sea, Luz who had been raped by Tracy and committed suicide, and Vines who had tried to stall for time.

Other than Vines, who had been exiled to the White Fog World by Kant and killed, there were still three bodies left. This one had already disappeared. Luz had committed suicide and fallen off the cliff, while Ochewell had been left behind.

However, Luz’s body was in a deeper place. It was dangerous to go there now.

So…

After leaving the Blue Zone, they headed to the quiet upper layer of the Stone Forest Abyss. The green land had a large number of fungi, plants, water, and even tiny life forms. It was the most normal ecosystem.

With the dragon’s powerful memory and the even more exaggerated memory of the Transformers, they quickly found the place where the mad dragon Ochwill died.

The dragon corpse disappeared, and there was no sign of any large dragons around.

It had obviously changed its form and left silently.

Only two out of three cases were confirmed.

However, for this terrifying and unknown mysterious element…Two cases were enough to confirm it.

The secret of the space-time flashback, the voice that instigated Tracy to do evil, the ancient secret, and a greater scheme. Now, the conspiracy and threat did not only come from Tracy’s vain attempt to ‘level’, nor was it just his ambition to raise the River of Origin to the sky…

Lily took a deep breath. Where did he go?”

“Two possibilities,” Horus replied.

The first was that they had all gone to help Tris.

That was unlikely, and if that was the case, Horus would definitely run into Lily along the way.

Then the second option…

Long Niang and the mechanical body looked at each other. Horus turned into a pair of wings and flew into the sky. Long Niang jumped up and locked the door. She spat out flames and shot into the distance like a falcon.

Since he knew the way, it would be quick to verify.

He flew all the way until he arrived at the entrance to the underground world.

Lily looked at the familiar scenery around her, the gurgling river, the fungi, and the quiet green. A sense of sadness rose in her heart.

She, Ah Xing, and Kant had entered the underground world from there. Now, only she had returned. Ah Xing’s fate was unknown, and Kant was fighting with Tracy below. In the blink of an eye, everything had changed. They had passed through an underground cave that was nearly 2,000 meters deep and arrived here. They were attracted by the magnificent scenery of the other world. The memories of that time were still vivid in their minds, but it seemed to have happened a long time ago.

“Let’s go.”

The 1,800-meter-deep cave finally led to this place. During this period, it took a hundred turns. On the way here, it took a lot of time, mainly to find the correct direction…However, it was much faster when he returned.

The path was smooth and unobstructed as it whistled upwards. The flames shone brightly in the darkness.

When they reached the surface, the scene before them was empty. The steel fortress built above the entrance had already collapsed by half. The steel dome had been completely destroyed.

Long Niang’s heart trembled as she soared into the air. The surroundings were ablaze with flames, and the archery formation roared. In the distance, magical light flashed, and the hot air balloons in the sky launched long-range firepower platforms. They were ready to attack from all directions.

Then, a familiar voice sounded.

The order was obeyed. Long Niang looked in the direction of the voice. Stella waved her staff, and her blue and white robe fluttered in the wind. She rode a white horse and galloped over.

” What happened?” Lily asked anxiously.

” Where’s Kant?” Stella shouted at the same time.

Both of them froze at the same time. Stella stared at the dragon in front of her. She was still wary of this unknown female dragon who had seduced Kant, but she also remembered Kant’s words.

“Princess Stella.” Horus transformed into a human beside Lily.” Please believe her.”

The princess took a deep breath. Not long ago, a few dragons broke through Kant’s steel fortress and flew away.”

” Which direction?” Lily’s expression changed drastically.

Stella pointed at the sea. Our aerial mages tried to chase after them, but they were unable to catch up to the dragons ‘high speed. They could only see them fly out of Goethe’s territorial waters from afar…”

“.. Did they meet up with the dragon army in the outer seas? That shouldn’t be. They had clearly already… If he was seen through…What is his motive…”

Lily muttered to herself in a low voice.

“I’m afraid that’s not all. Those four dragons left separately. Only one dragon flew in the direction of the dragon army.” Stella asked anxiously,” So, where’s Kant?!”

” P.S. 1: Speaking of which, the titles of these chapters are quite interesting. The Chosen One of the Creator Gods, The Phantom Pain of the Old Days, The Curtain Descends, and Between the Ascension. Sigh, the content is so serious, but it’s a little late…”

P.S. 2: The title of this chapter is also suitable. (Laughter)
