Alien Knights

After the meeting in Muxi City, Todd, who left the soul space, slowly opened his eyes, looked at the mountains in the distance, and fell into deep thought.

Evie, who was standing beside him, noticed his strangeness and asked, "What's wrong?"

"If someone told you that it could help you get rid of the human body and transform into another race, would you agree?"

Evie looked at Todd strangely: "Isn't the answer obvious? If you can get a stronger body, no one will refuse power."

Todd continued: "But you will become a complete alien, and you will no longer be able to integrate into human society."

Evie shrugged indifferently: "You may not know my life in the village. There was no entertainment, no small talk, just daily practice and worship of the gods. To me, there is not much human society. significance……"

Hearing Evie's answer, Todd shook his head and said: "The answer may be the same for you, but it will be completely different for others. Human beings have long regarded society as a necessity. Leaving the human form is tantamount to going from Self-imposed exile in human society..."

Todd lowered his voice, thinking of himself in these words. He who chose to transform into a dragon body because of protecting everything in Muxi City back then, did he also have a trace of regret deep in his heart?

Maybe there was, but after he thought about it, the answer was already meaningless.

Evie leaned her body on Todd's hind limbs, and said softly: "If there are any benefits to human beings, there may still be some... For example, when I was with you, I finally found an interesting "thing", but Because of your appearance, there is no possibility at all..."

The embarrassed Todd cleared his throat: "As I said, I will find a way to solve this problem. Let's not talk about this, I want to ask, if I am not in Froststone City, how does the city usually solve emergency affairs?"

Evie glanced at the black dragon: "The shaman assembly holds a meeting, adopts a voting method, and gives the result."

Todd asked: "What if there is no consensus within the assembly, or if the matter is so urgent that there is no time to use the meeting to decide?"

Evie held her chin and thought for a while: "Speaking of it this way, it seems that there has indeed been a similar situation..."

"How did it work out in the end?"

"Rune divination."

Todd asked suspiciously: "Rune divination?"

Evie explained: "According to the teachings of the gods, if mortals are faced with a fateful decision, they will usually look for shamans and ask them to use stones with rune characters for divination. Have you forgotten? Even the gods of the gods Wang Odin also asked the three fateful sisters for help regarding the catastrophe, and asked them to use rune divination to issue an oracle."

Todd immediately became interested: "How exactly is rune divination done?"

"Put a pile of stones engraved with runic characters in a stone circle, use flame as a catalyst, and observe the changes in the stone characters..."

Todd shook the faucet, and said in an incredible tone: "That's it? Just use this method to make a decision?! This is no different from burning tortoise shells and shaking the hexagram tube!"

Evie looked up at Todd: "Burning tortoise shells? Shaking divination tubes? Are these also methods of divination?"

"Forget about this." Todd stretched his hind limbs forward, put the dragon's tail behind him, and held up the dragon's head with his forelimbs. But the method of divination is unreliable.”

Evie rolled her eyes and said, "This kind of words shouldn't come from the mouth of a god..."

Ignoring Evie's sarcasm, Todd thought hard: "It's best to find a way so that Muxi's cabinet and the shaman assembly can actively contact me... The soul space used for remote meetings is currently only I will open it myself. However, if there is a way not only for me to open it, but also for other people to freely enter... In this way, if there is any emergency in the two cities, they can take the initiative to enter the soul space and contact me ..."

Thinking of this, Todd suddenly remembered one thing.

When he established a soul link with Leviathan, it was not through direct contact, but after touching the head of a manticore, he automatically entered the latter's soul space.

If this method is feasible, does it mean that the soul space cannot be opened only through a one-way operation, but can be freely accessed by all individuals through some kind of intermediary.

Thinking of this, Todd flapped his dragon wings and flew into the air, and said to Evie on the ground, "I'm going to the Kingdom of Shadows."

Under the strong wind pressure, the latter looked at the giant dragon slowly rising into the sky, squinted his eyes and shouted: "Remember what you promised me!"

Before the words fell, Todd had already entered the clouds and flew towards the north at high speed.

It was already late at night when Todd landed on the ruins of the Temple of the Kingdom of Shadows.

Sitting by the fire, Meredith, who was drawing sand pictures on the ground, heard the loud sound of wings flapping in the air, stood up and dropped the branch in her hand, and waved her arms happily above her head.

Todd slowly landed on the open space of the ruins of the temple, opened his mouth to Meredith and asked, "Do you still remember my first training opponent on the island, the manticore?"

Meredith was taken aback by Todd's sudden question.

After she realized it, she said with some regret: "You came here specially because of that beast?"

Todd put away the dragon wings and looked down at Meredith: "There is one thing, I want to prove that the manticore is needed in the process."

Meredith sighed helplessly: "Okay, the colony of manticores is in the crypt on the east side of Xueshan Mountain. There is a very huge ancient tree there, which can be clearly seen from the air. Wait for you to do it." After you're done, remember to come back to me, I also have something to ask you."

Todd nodded, flapped his dragon wings again, and flew to the snow-capped mountains of the Kingdom of Shadows.

After ten minutes of searching, Todd found the hidden crypt that Meredith had mentioned under the ancient tree.

Todd gathered the dragon wings and slowly glided to the ground. The small creatures around saw the figure of the black dragon, and hurriedly fled in all directions, hiding in their lairs.

And Todd looked at the dark hole, and couldn't help but start to worry, how could he call out that manticore?

After thinking hard at the door for a few minutes, Todd was surprised that a manticore poked its head out of the hole, looking at the huge black dragon in front of it with tentative and fearful eyes.

Relying on the true vision of the power of the soul, Todd recognized at a glance that the other party was exactly what he was looking for.

Taking a deep breath, he slowly put the dragon's claws on the lion's head. In the next second, Todd's consciousness was instantly sucked into darkness.

The vast and deep sea, the darkness where you can't reach your fingers, the huge Leviathan looked at the black dragon that appeared in front of him, and asked in a low voice: "You came here for the secret of the soul link?"
