Start as a Silver Dragon and travel to Equestria

The flash of red image puzzled him for a moment, and then he took a step closer to take a closer look, and then he saw...

In a battlefield..., the royal guards in golden uniforms were holding some strange weapons and attacking in the distance, and their unicorns were not idle either, either building a magic shield to protect the Lightning Pegasus and Earth Ponies fighting on the front line.

The Earth Horses are swift and powerful, and the hidden blades on their hooves also provide them with effective lethality. The unknown armor on their bodies makes their speed and strength even better. There is also a small tube on the unknown armor, which seems to be able to launch attack magic.

There seemed to be strange armor on the wings of Pegasus, which made them faster, and they could also skillfully control the strange equipment on their bodies to attack the monsters rushing out of the red fog.

The smaller earth ponies were manipulating those huge strange weapons and attacking from behind.

"Strange, what are they fighting against, those monsters that appear to be made of red mist?"

Shimmering Red Crystal seemed to be there in person. The shouts of the ponies around him, the sounds of magic in the distance, and some strange screams and laughter in the red fog in the distance reached his ears.

Suddenly, some black and red translucent sickles emerged from the red mist and were about to attack the charging earth ponies. However, most of them were able to dodge quickly, and even those that could not dodge would be blocked by the magic shield that appeared.

But a large red fog suddenly moved forward, submerging some ponies.

The ponies were startled at first, then reacted and pressed the armor on their chests. Their helmets covered their entire heads, leaving a golden transparent area for them to observe their surroundings, but the golden stripes on their armor were falling...

A stallion's voice sounded

"Lightning Feather! Air support!"

There was a flash of lightning among the Pegasus, and they turned back to their positions and then came back. That was the trajectory of a Pegasus flying. She was dragging a piece of black metal the size of a pony behind her. After reaching the sky above the red fog, she threw it down.

The moment the black metal touched the red mist, a golden magic circle suddenly appeared, flashing with golden lightning.

Then it exploded violently, emitting a huge ball of magic light that quickly spread out in all directions, with a radius of about 100 meters.

The red fog dissipated wherever it went, and the golden stripes on the armor of the ponies also recovered.

A huge purple shadow appeared in the distance, it looked like Twilight Sparkle...

Following a solemn voice

"Shimmering Red Crystal! Stop it!"

Shining Chijing was confused as to why this happened to him. However, he soon found out why this happened to him.

The red mist in the air gradually solidified, and the pony that appeared surprised Shimmering Crimson Crystal. It looked like a grown-up version of himself, and was wearing a black and red armor. There was even a black and red Alicorn next to it, and a translucent blood-red sickle was suspended next to her...

But it seems that her mental state is very bad...

"What on earth is going on!"

...

As Luo Shu patted the glittering red crystal's shoulder, his attention returned from the crystal cut surface.

"Shimmering Red Crystal, what's wrong?"

"Ah! Uh... nothing..." Flashing Red Crystal was frightened, touching his arm with one hoof and lowering his head. He was not sure what he had just seen...

"Teacher Luo Shu, what is the situation with this Tree of Harmony?"

"It, it is an important magical weapon of Equestria, and it may even be related to the origin of the world."

"So it...can it predict the future or something?"

"Hmm... I think so. After all, if it is related to the origin of the world... What did you see?"

In fact, Luo Shu had just analyzed the memory of Shimmering Red Crystal and already knew what he saw, but he asked this question, which made Shimmering Red Crystal panic for a moment, and cold sweat flowed from his head...

"Luo Shu... Teacher..., can't you see what's up there?"

"No, to be honest, I don't care. My power is so strong that my future is a mystery. The Tree of Harmony cannot deduce my future. So what did you see?"

"Uh...I...I joined uh your army?"

"Oh! How did you know I was planning to reform the Equestria Army?"

Luo Shu's words made Shining Chijing feel like he was falling into an icy cave. He was even more certain that this was his future, but why did he become like that? Why? Was it because of that strange Alicorn? Or was it some other reason?

And Luo Shu is thinking in the flashing red crystal

Sparkling Red Crystal remembered the question that Discord had blamed Luo Shu for before: why are there so few crystal ponies in the Crystal Empire that are unicorns?

At this time, Luo Shu looked up at Yuan Zui. Yuan Zui looked at him and the two of them had a conversation in their minds.

“Is the future you predict reliable?”

"Based on what I'm making up now, isn't there also the issue of your bloodline? As long as you add some subconscious power or something, he will always develop in that direction, and no one will know."

"But what the hell is a blood moon, are you planning on playing a game of Fallout Pony and bringing a villain with you?"

"Don't worry... Don't worry, you know how strong the Yang is right now, and the latent Yin won't have much effect for now..."

"So you were looking for fun while I was taking care of Luna?"

"No no no, I... uh... well... okay, tell me what fun you want to have, and I'll record it for you, okay..."

"Well, not really. I'm condemning you for being irresponsible... I want some of the technological products over there to let me study them, thank you... And aren't there any hidden dangers in bringing them now?"

"No way, forget it, I have my own destiny"

The conversation between the two was completed in just one thought.

And Luo Shu also answered the words of the shining red crystal

"Uh... So, the Crystal Empire is the Crystal Ponies of the Unicorn... King Sombra..."

"What?!" The emotions of Shimmering Red Crystal visibly collapsed. He tried to take a deep breath to ease his inner panic, but it didn't seem to work. It made him even more panicked. King Black Crystal?! How could he be the only unicorn...

"Teacher Luo Shu..., is there nothing else...?"

"Well...and Princess Amo."

"..."

"But she must have made some great contribution and became a princess before she got the horn. For example, Twilight Sparkle grew wings."

Shimmering Red Crystal didn't want to accept the reality. Could he really become like that in the future? But he was living such a good life now, how could he become like that... Shimmering Red Crystal suddenly remembered the pain in his body caused by the magic of the Harmony Tree...

*A ditty about recognizing reality, ding↗, ding↗ding↗ding↗ding↗ding~, ding↗dingdingding↘ding↗ding↗*

"Okay, okay, why do you think so much, kid? The teacher believes in you." Shining Chijing stared blankly at Luo Shu's trusting smile, then turned to look at the Moon Princess and Original Sin who also smiled at him...

The guilt inside me is getting deeper and deeper...

"Okay, stop imagining. Come to Canterlot the day after tomorrow to participate in the selection. You are the examiner."

Flashing Chijing looked at Luo Shu's expectant eyes and agreed hesitantly, then sighed and looked at Luo Shu with complicated eyes.

"Teacher...I'm too tired today. I'm going back to Ponyville first."

After the Shining Red Crystal left dejectedly, the Original Sin returned to Luo Shu's body.

"You're a pretty good actress, right? How about we go together after we've arranged everything in a few days? Anyway, I still need some time to adjust the magic circle, and it would be too boring for me to just play there for a few hours. Believe me, Luna can take care of herself, she's not a child, and the Royal Medical Team isn't there to just eat and do nothing."

"I..." Luo Shu looked at Luna beside him hesitantly.
