Chapter 251: The Effect of the Dragon God True Name
Xia Feng never forgot his mission to find the Origin Egg and help Miss Evil Dragon resolve her reproductive desire. However, the Origin Egg was even rarer than S-grade Spirit Robes, and he had no idea where to even begin searching for it.
But now, seeing this half-dragon. His idea instantly came! Even if he couldn’t find any clues, it was worth a try. Xia Feng sensed the Dragon God True Name and, as he pondered, the Capsule Ship rapidly approached the center of the battlefield.
“Heh~ Officer, have you given up struggling?” The half-dragon chuckled mockingly, lightly leaping from the treetop. His sharp-clawed feet crunched on the withered fallen leaves as he leisurely approached the Hooded Man.
The Hooded Man vomited black blood and, with a thud, fell to one knee. Black lines appeared on his gaunt face, a precursor to Calamity Force Erosion. However, his brown pupils remained devoid of emotion. He listlessly raised his eyes to the towering monster that had approached him.
Normally, he wouldn’t even spare a glance at a monster whose physical strength had reached Rank Four. But unfortunately, after fleeing all the way here, he was already at the end of his rope. Furthermore, the environment here was eerily strange. Even as a true Rank Five expert, he found it difficult to resist such terrifying Calamity Force Erosion. He knew he was going to die and no longer held out any hope, quietly awaiting death, though a sliver of regret lingered in his withered brown eyes.
“It’s a pity, not to die on the battlefield, but to be killed by traitors…”
Seeing that the Hooded Man was motionless, the half-dragon clicked his tongue with boredom and, without further taunts, grabbed the man’s neck and lifted him high. His vertical pupils flashed with bloodthirsty excitement.
“Who?!” Just then, he suddenly turned around vigilantly.
He saw a Black-robed Person, wearing a mask, slowly emerging from the forest and walking directly towards him.
This guy… the half-dragon’s vertical pupils narrowed. He acutely perceived that this Black-robed Person was moving freely in this high-Calamity Force environment without using any Calamity Force-filtering Spirit Robes! However, under his Dragon Eye’s detection, the Spirit Pressure fluctuations on the Black-robed Person were only Rank Three, and his Mental Power state wasn’t very high either.
“Interesting.” The half-dragon’s lips curled into a low laugh. He suddenly exerted force in his palm, snapping the Hooded Man’s neck with a crack. Then, his scaled leg muscles tensed, and with a *whoosh*— he exploded the ground, creating a deep pit. He transformed into an afterimage, streaking through the gray mist forest like a white trail.
The Black-robed Person didn’t move at all and simply said in a calm voice, “Kneel.”
“Buzz!!” The half-dragon froze in astonishment. He felt a deafening hum resonate in his ears, as if he had received an irrefutable, majestic command from a king of heaven and earth. Fear surged within him, and his knees went *thump* as he knelt in the shallow pit covered in withered leaves.
He raised his vertical pupils in shock, utterly terrified, because he vaguely sensed that behind the Black-robed Person before him, there seemed to be a pale giant dragon standing between heaven and earth, looking down. Its indifferent vertical pupils seemed to burn with sacred white flames, with a sacred white underworld canyon splitting through the center, magnificent and desolate.
With just a glance, the half-dragon was completely terrified. In his fear, he prostrated himself even lower, crawling at Xia Feng’s feet. He didn’t understand what was happening, nor what that terrifying vision he had perceived momentarily was. But he knew that this was the rank suppression of the Dragon race’s bloodline, and he was in trouble!
Seeing the half-dragon truly kneel and unable to move, Xia Feng nodded with satisfaction. Di Si’s True Name contained a lot of information, one of which was [Dragon God’s Might], which possessed absolute suppression over dragonkind, representing the highest level of majesty. As long as one was a half-dragon, or even a dragon scion, a true dragon… they would all be affected by the Dragon God’s Might. It could be said that seeing the Dragon God True Name was like the Dragon God personally appearing, and anyone with dragon blood would have to kneel!
“Little Carp, use the Gui Scroll to draw him.” Xia Feng instructed mentally. The Gui Scroll, a fragment of authority he had snatched during the previous conflict with the Golden Sparrow Flower Family in the Star Wheel, possessed a telepathic ability. By drawing the target’s true image onto the scroll, one could obtain their thoughts. Yue Hongli, who was lying in the Capsule Ship, conjured paper and pen out of thin air and swiftly drew an ugly half-dragon image, rendered in a distinct anime art style.
“Master, it’s done.”
Xia Feng nodded and looked down indifferently, “I ask, you answer.” The half-dragon found that he couldn’t get up at all, let alone sneak attack the human who had approached him. He could only tremble and respectfully say, “Yes, yes! Sir, please speak.”
“What is your name? Where do you come from? How did you become a half-dragon?”
“Sir, I have no name. All my past memories are gone. I only know that I am serial number 10987, born in Bern Island, Underground Lab No. 3, Hatching Pod A9, belonging to the [Dragon Twelve Secret Guard, Third Squad].”
“A few days ago, the [Garden Investigation Team] came to the Northern Territory, seemingly to investigate something, and accidentally entered the Egret Forbidden Zone. So, Lord Xize ordered us to pursue and kill the investigation team, ensuring that no member of the investigation team could leave the forbidden zone and destroying all traces…”
This half-dragon was utterly devoid of loyalty, revealing everything he knew, whether it was meant to be secret or not, and without a hint of lying. Hearing about the Garden Investigation Team, Xia Feng was somewhat surprised. Xia Feng had thought that the behind-the-scenes perpetrator of the Garden Case had been identified as the Xuanwu Bureau Chief, Uncle Wei, and himself, the Holy Son of a cult. He hadn’t expected that the investigation would continue. It was likely that there were internal disagreements, with some wanting to close the case and stop investigating, while others were still pushing forward.
“Bern Island Laboratory… were you cultivated in a laboratory?” Xia Feng continued to ask. “How were you cultivated?”
“Th-this… I don’t know either, Sir.” The half-dragon prostrated himself, his voice filled with fear. Xia Feng fell into contemplation. So, the experiments on Bern Island weren’t solely about researching Calamity Eaters. He couldn’t help but think of Freya’s sister. No wonder when her sister died in the video, scales had faintly appeared on her body; those must have been dragon scales.
Xia Feng then asked the half-dragon a few more questions, but unfortunately, this half-dragon had only recently been created and had mostly operated within the forbidden zone, so he knew next to nothing.
“Sir, Sir! I really don’t know anything else!” With a blade pressed against his neck, the half-dragon trembled even more, not daring to look up, merely lowering his eyelids to conceal his venom and annoyance.
“Master, he’s thinking that if he finds an opportunity, he’ll chop off your little wangwang,” Yue Hongli’s indifferent voice sounded in his mind. Xia Feng: “…”.
“Sir—” the half-dragon tentatively raised his head in fear, and then his head flew off. His gaze was filled with bewildered confusion, and the world spun as he fell to the ground— His withered vertical pupils represented death, and his soul was simultaneously destroyed, leaving no trace.
After dealing with the half-dragon, Xia Feng walked over to the Hooded Man and found that the man’s face was as dry and withered as tree bark, but his soul still showed fluctuations, meaning he wasn’t dead. This guy was likely a member of the investigation team. Xia Feng thought for a moment, sealed the man’s Spirit Pressure and senses, and then lifted him with the Gravity Levitation Technique.
“Miss Mu, let’s go.” The Black-dressed Woman transformed the Capsule Ship back into the Spirit Robe covering her body, then slowly walked to Xia Feng’s side. She leaned in and kissed his thin lips, transferring the Calamity Force that had invaded her body into Xia Feng’s mouth, before turning and leaving.
“Mm, let’s go.” Xia Feng: “…?” Wait, why was this woman so nonchalant? Xia Feng shook his head and muttered, then followed.
“No, wait, Miss Mu, didn’t you lose a bet!” Xia Feng suddenly remembered, clapping his hands together, his eyes shining. “Shouldn’t you tell me the core function of the Fate Stone now!”
