Nowadays, nobles and generals all live in the imperial city. If anything were to happen, it could deal a considerable blow to the empire, so we must take strict precautions.
PS: Anyway, I have already criticized the failure. I will never let you see that kind of plot again qwq. To be honest, if you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have found it so outrageous. Thank you everyone.
Chapter 1 - Childhood Friend 012: Sense Magic
Eloline looked at the afterglow of the sunset, her thoughts drifting far away. She had lived as a dragon for a long time, but sometimes she would dream about him as a human being on Earth.
Vitian interrupted Eloline's thoughts: "Eloline, how do you feel about your fighting ability now?"
"Combat ability? I think it's okay..."
So far, Eloline has only encountered two types of enemies - those that are completely defeatable and those that are completely undefeatable.
The battles of these days have made Eloline accustomed to her fangs and claws. If she had seen it from her previous human perspective, it would undoubtedly be a barbaric behavior, but now it has become an instinct for Eloline.
"Most dragons rarely use hand-to-hand combat when fighting. Although you are not yet an adult, you can already start learning."
"Getting started with what?" asked Eloline.
Vitian smiled and said calmly, "Dragon language magic."
When it comes to magic, most people's impression is that it is elegant, magical, and difficult to get started. Not everyone can learn magic, and humans are not the only ones who can use magic.
There are many magic systems in this world, all of which were explored by our predecessors. As for the dragon clan, they also possess dragon language magic left over from ancient times.
Unlike humans who can only awaken magic with extraordinary talents, all dragons are naturally friendly to magic and therefore can use magic.
When Eloline learned that she could learn magic, she became very excited. This was another omission that was not recorded in the dragon clan's heritage.
Now the question is, how should we learn dragon language magic?
"You have to start from the most basic feeling of magic, but remember, this will be a long process."
Vitian gave Eloline a heads-up in advance, telling her not to expect quick results.
"How should I feel the magic?"
"Close your eyes and feel your surroundings until you discover the magical element in the air."
Eloline closed her eyes as Vitien said, and a long time passed, but she felt nothing.
"Don't be anxious, take your time, spend a few hours every day to feel it, and you will succeed sooner or later."
"Understood……"
Eloline continued to close her eyes and feel. She tried to calm herself down and put aside all distracting thoughts. Slowly, she could no longer feel the things around her.
Eloline suddenly felt an indescribable existence, something that was tangible yet invisible, and had different colors.
Vitien had been standing patiently beside Eloline. She was a little surprised when she heard Eloline say she felt something, so she asked, "Can you feel them? Tell me what color they are?"
"Well, red, yellow, blue... Anyway, there are so many colors, I can't count them all."
Then Eloline suddenly couldn't hear Vitien's voice, so she opened her eyes and saw Vitien looking straight at her.
"Why don't you speak?"
"You..." Vitien came closer, and for the first time she was quite close to Eloline. She asked, "Are you sure what you saw was colorful?"
"I am sure."
Eloline closed her eyes again to confirm this. Now she seemed somewhat familiar with feeling those magical elements.
"Don't move, let me check your body."
Vitian placed his hand on Eloline's head, and soon sighed: "You have an affinity for all elements, but the amount of magic power in your body is pitifully small."
"Well, can you explain it in detail?"
"That is to say, with your current magic power, although you can learn and use magic, its power will be greatly reduced."
"Does that mean I'm no longer good at magic?" Eloline asked.
"Don't worry, you can still use external forces to release magic."
Vitian introduced to her in detail the methods that can assist in casting magic, such as using a staff that stores magic power to assist in casting spells, using the magic power in the staff instead of the staff's own magic power when casting spells.
But at present, Eloline cannot use the magic wand. Most magic wands are used by humanoid creatures. She can only find a way to become a human or simply tie gems filled with magic power to herself.
Then Vitian said the last method: "There are people with special physiques in this world who can help you replenish your magic power."
"Special physique?"
"Well, individuals of any race may have that kind of physique, which is called the Fountain of Magic Power. People with the Fountain of Magic Power physique have a huge amount of magic power in their bodies."
After hearing what Vitien said, Eloline had some doubts: "No matter how much magic power there is, it is in other people's bodies. Is it possible..."
"That's right! Magic power can be transferred, and after it is transferred, it can be kept in your body for a long time."
For some reason, Eloline thought of a term - power bank.
"Then how do we transfer it?"
“Hehe…” Vitian smiled wickedly for the first time, “It’s very simple. All we have to do is have sex with someone with that kind of physique.”
"Pfft! Hand it over, hand it over for what!?"
"Intercourse. And it doesn't matter what race or gender you are, as long as you do that kind of thing, you can..."
"Stop, stop talking."
Even just hearing this word made Eloline feel extremely ashamed. She had never been in love in her past life and her personality was a bit conservative. Although she knew what the word meant, she still felt embarrassed when she heard others say it.
"Oh, you're shy already?" Vitien discovered something very interesting. "It's just intercourse, it's something you'll have to experience sooner or later..."
"I have a question!" Eloline changed the subject directly: "You told me before that only dragons can learn dragon language magic, but you are going to teach me dragon language magic. Does this mean that you are also a dragon?"
It's time to bring this issue up. Eloline had actually long suspected that Vitian might be a member of her own clan. After all, Vitian knew the dragon clan too well.
Since dragons can transform, the woman in front of me might really be a dragon.
"About this issue..."
Boom!
Suddenly there was a loud noise and Eloline was startled. She could feel the ground shaking noticeably.
A huge pillar of light appeared in the distance, making the sky, which had seemed a little dim due to the evening, bright and dazzling again.
The entire southern wilderness fell into chaos. Eloline saw many birds in the forest flying in fright, and heard the roars of various monsters and wild beasts.
"Vidian, what is that pillar of light? Um, Vidian?"
Eloline suddenly discovered that Vitien had disappeared.
A stream of light was flying towards the light column. Ai Luolin looked at it and wondered if it was Vitien...
PS: This is still considered today's update, tomorrow's update will be as usual OVO
Chapter 1 - Childhood Friends 013 Outsiders
Vitian flew above the light column and confirmed her guess.
This is a strategic-level long-distance teleportation array that can carry out ultra-large-scale teleportation. There seems to be a monster-inducing device installed in the center of the teleportation array. Vitian has seen countless monsters rushing towards the teleportation array.
Where will these monsters be teleported to? Vitian already had a guess in her mind.
She floated in the air and thought for a while, and finally decided not to interfere.
No matter whose conspiracy it was, no matter what happened, it had nothing to do with her.
She never takes sides.
Eloline watched the "stream of light" fly back, and as it got closer, she finally saw clearly that it was Vitien.
"How on earth did you manage to fly?"
In Eloline's eyes, Vitien's flying was incredible. Was it magic?
For things that she couldn't understand, Eloline could only guess that they were the effects of magic.
"Let's continue discussing the previous issue." Vitien did not answer Eloline's question.
"Wait, what's with that beam of light?"
Eloline had noticed long ago that ever since the pillar of light appeared, the monsters in the southern wilderness seemed to be heading there, but they still avoided a certain area around Vitien's house.
"Don't worry about it, it has nothing to do with us."
"Well……"
"Didn't you say before that you wanted to be an egoist? Then let me tell you now, that beam of light is the light emitted by the teleportation array, and it is now teleporting the monsters in the southern wilderness to other places."
"Where to teleport?"
"I don't know, but it's most likely within the Empire."
Considering that the Five-Nation Alliance dared to go to war with the Empire, Vitian guessed that this teleportation array must have been built by them. However, the strategic-level teleportation array is extremely expensive, and it is estimated that the Five-Nation Alliance has spent a huge amount of money.
Although Vittian lived here, she could not monitor the entire southern wilderness area. The location of the teleportation array was far away from where she lived now, so Vittian did not notice it when the teleportation array was set up.
But it doesn't matter. As long as they don't disturb her, she won't care what humans do.
And Eloline still hadn't reacted yet: "Will those monsters attack humans?"
"Nonsense, what do you think the Imperial Wilderness Legion does? It's just that they probably didn't expect that the monsters would find other ways to bypass their defenses."
Eloline immediately thought of that familiar face, and this time she was really worried about Licaro's safety.
"Are you worried about your little friend?"
"Yeah, I'm a little worried."
"She may indeed be in danger. The soldiers in the empire's interior have no experience in fighting monsters. When faced with a monster that suddenly appears, they may not have any way to deal with it in a short period of time."
Vitian's analysis made sense. There were many powerful monsters in the southern wilderness that ordinary armies could not fight against. Otherwise, the empire would have colonized this place long ago.
However, it is unknown how many powerful monsters have passed through the teleportation array.
Boom!
During the conversation, the beam of light in the distance suddenly disappeared.
The teleportation array is not something you can just ignore after it is turned on. It must constantly use a large amount of media and magic power to keep the teleportation array running. So it may be that the resources were exhausted just now, so the teleportation array was forced to close.
"It looks like it's over. According to the number of monsters I just saw, at least tens of thousands of them have been teleported away."
"Tens of thousands!?"
Eloline had fought many monsters in the southern wilderness, some of which she couldn't even defeat now. If she went to the interior of the empire through the teleportation array...
"Okay, now something interesting is going to happen."
Vitian viewed this as entertainment. After the teleportation array appeared, this "large-scale serial drama" related to the war would probably last longer and become even more exciting.
But it was different for Eloline. She found herself worried about Licaro and was concerned that she might be in danger.
"It seems like you are very worried about that little girl. Why, do you want to protect her?"
"If she's in danger, and I can do it... I'll go help her."
"Tsk tsk, friendship is such a beautiful thing."
Vitian sighed for a moment, then said, "Don't forget, how are you going to get back to Ed Fallon now? If you go back, won't you also be feared and even attacked as a monster?"
Vitian's words brought Eloline back to reality. Yes, even if she returned to Edfallon now, she couldn't help Licaro, but would get into a lot of trouble.
What's more, she can't even pass the border of the southern wilderness now. The Imperial Wilderness Legion still monitors the land and the sky.
"So, I advise you not to care too much about this kind of feeling. Let time slowly make it fade away." Vitian advised earnestly.
Ai Luolin completely disagreed with her statement: "I don't know what the future will be like, but the memories of my time with Lika Luo are very precious to me now."
Even if time really dilutes everything, Eloline will choose to cherish the present.
"It seems like you two have a good relationship. But think about it, she spent more than two months with you when you were just born. It must have been a very important time for you."
"Alas, now I know she might be in danger, but I can't help her..."
"You'll get used to it. It's like this a lot of the time. There are some things you can't change."
"..."
Eloline felt that Vitien really was a person with a story, but she never revealed any information about herself, which led to Eloline not understanding her at all.
