A man among dragons, building a mysterious ancient church.
Chapter 100: Being a bodyguard is a waste of his talents; he should really be a tour guide.
Chapter 100: Being a bodyguard is a waste of his talents; he should really be a tour guide.
At a depth of 150 meters underwater, Ye Sheng and Jiu Deyaji held each other's hands tightly after they were no longer under surveillance.
In the dark, sunless underwater world, even though the diving suits insulate against the heat, the mere touch can still offer a little comfort to each other's hearts.
Using the underwater lights worn on their diving helmets, the two were able to see a massive bronze wall covered in several feet of patina standing at the bottom of the river.
The bronze wall extends to the left and right, and even professional underwater lighting cannot penetrate the depths of the river, making it impossible to find the boundary of the bronze wall.
All that can be seen is that below the bronze wall is a solid riverbed, and above it is a mountain rock wall, as if the entire bronze city was created by hollowing out the inside of a mountain.
It is unknown what happened that caused this bronze city to break through the mountain and suddenly appear in the world.
In the command center of Moniach, Mans gripped the microphone tightly with both hands, his voice trembling with excitement: "Are you sure? Have you really found it?! The legendary White Emperor City! The burial place of the Dragon King Norton!"
“I’m pretty sure.” Ye Sheng relayed his voice through the signal cable: “I’ve already taken pictures with the underwater high-pressure camera next to my helmet.”
"The central gate of the bronze-cast wall has been opened for some unknown reason, allowing us to peek inside."
"Once you see it with your own eyes, you can be absolutely certain that this is Baidi City!"
Ye Sheng could not describe in words the magnificence and mystery of the Bronze City's interior.
This bronze city, slumbering beneath the deep waters of the Yangtze River, is a breathtaking wonder.
The entire city seems to have been carved from a single piece of prehistoric bronze, with its magnificent palaces, endless passageways, and towering pillars all exuding an awe-inspiring grandeur and antiquity on an inhuman scale.
Through the door that was wide open for some unknown reason, Ye Sheng and Jiu Deya could glimpse a portion of the giant bronze gears that were intricately meshed and slowly turning.
Without seeing the whole picture, one cannot understand the whole truth.
No one knows whether these gears have been turning continuously for thousands of years, or whether their power was restored after the gate was opened.
It can only be roughly discerned that the numerous bronze gears operate in a complex and eternal manner, driving the hidden mechanisms of this bronze city.
"Besides the King of Bronze and Fire, who else could possess such talent? It's incredible!"
"A thousand years ago, the power of the Dragon King, who possessed a complete dragon body, far exceeded our imagination!"
Ye Sheng was completely captivated by the wonder of the bronze city and tried his best to make Professor Mans aware of this miracle by using weak and unbelievable exaggerated descriptions.
Unable to bear it any longer, Jiu Deyaqi gently paddled with both hands, lightly embraced Ye Sheng, and placed her right index finger in front of her diving helmet, signaling for silence and to stop talking.
If we continue, what if Professor Mans orders them to investigate Baidi City?
We must not forget Mr. Fool's prophecy: if the two of them go in, they will encounter dragons and die!
Ye Sheng's heart skipped a beat. It was too late to change his mind!
It must be said that Jiudeyaji really understands Kassel's mindset and thoughts about dragons.
Professor Mans took several deep breaths in the command room, but he could not suppress his excitement.
The legendary White Emperor City, one of the four great kings of the dragon race second only to the Ancestral Dragon Black King, Norton, has fallen into the hands of Cassel!
This is an unprecedented gain since the founding of the Secret Party; it is an overwhelming honor and an absolute benefit!
Faced with such a huge temptation, even Professor Mans could not maintain his composure: "Ye Sheng, Jiu Deya Ji, enter Baidi City, and ideally, find Norton's ossuary!"
It's over. Ye Sheng's initial surge of passion instantly turned to ice. He looked at Jiu Deyaqi with endless regret. Jiu Deyaqi didn't say anything, but simply hugged her boyfriend tighter.
Although the nanomaterial diving suit insulated against heat and only provided tactile sensation, Ye Sheng still resolutely raised his hand and placed it on the hand that was wrapped around his waist by Jiu Deya: "Yes." ...
Inside the bronze city of Baidi, Old Tang, bewildered, was led by the dragon attendant Samson on a tour of the entire city.
"Roar~" The dragon's roar was gentle and leisurely, without any violence or bloodlust, only a deep joy.
For some inexplicable reason, Old Tang could understand the simple dragon's roar; it sounded like Samson saying to him, "Welcome home, King."
"Ah, that's really nice, my home." Old Tang didn't know what to say, so he could only foolishly praise his own home.
Even Lao Tang didn't realize that his abnormally high level of physical fitness allowed him to reach a 150-meter water pressure environment without wearing any diving equipment and without any burden.
It can even speak normally underwater, which is completely contrary to normal human anatomy.
If word gets out, most hybrids with an A-grade bloodline rating will probably lose their will to fight and dare not step onto the dragon-slaying battlefield again.
An ordinary bounty hunter, even after learning his true identity from the 'Huang Brothers,' actually saw a third-generation beast.
But when he was suddenly told that he was the one who had built this huge city, Old Tang's sense of bewilderment grew uncontrollably.
Is this really his home? Please, he doesn't want this home at all!
Old Tang, who has a human nature, only longs for a large flat or a big mansion. How uncomfortable would it be to live in a place where a building is hundreds of meters high?
To see the view outside the window, you have to swim dozens of meters upstream? Who can stand this kind of life?
Not to mention it's buried deep underwater, with no power lines or internet cables, which means no air conditioning, no refrigerator, no Wi-Fi, no computer, and extremely poor signal. Old Tang, who considers himself a modern man, doesn't see this place as a home at all.
Of course, if all that bronze could be sold for money, Old Tang would still be willing to acknowledge this private property.
As for those endlessly spinning gears, sorry, Old Tang doesn't understand a single one of them right now.
Samson, unaware that his king was already plotting to sell off their wealth and flee, was still enthusiastically leading his king on a tour, growling incessantly: "Roar, roar~"
Old Tang clearly didn't recognize the dragon script, but his mind could automatically translate Samson's meaning.
Samson was saying that this place used to be the dwelling place of ordinary dead servants, who were responsible for helping the king mine; that place was the breeding ground of ordinary dragons, where Samson would occasionally go to bestow dragon blood for the creatures to absorb.
Old Tang's thoughts began to wander. For some reason, he felt that the dragon attendant Samson in front of him was not suitable to be a bodyguard, but rather a tour guide.
Seeing that the king had glanced at the gears, Samson began to boast, and roared a few times, roughly meaning that it was sleeping and guarding the White Emperor City.
Revived upon smelling the king's blood, it opened the gates of Baidi City, and the city's gears began to turn again as soon as the gates opened.
Used to drive the movement of various mechanisms within the city.
Old Tang blinked. Was Norton this awesome before he lost his memory?
Could these giant gears be used to control the entire Baidi City? Could they turn Baidi City into a maze, where the position of every building and every wall could be adjusted?
"Yes, yes, amazing, truly amazing." Old Tang blushed slightly as he spoke. Was he just bragging?
Realizing he couldn't continue being led by the nose—that he was there to find his brother, not to visit a museum—he understood that he was there to find his brother.
Old Tang quickly grabbed the iron ring under Samson's mask: "We'll see later, take me to see Constantine first."
