Chapter 608: Them? Just Bastards
After the book transmission ended, Lin Moryu saw Antares’s huge dragon eye. Lin
Antares’s expression was sowhat complex, an emotion that was hard to describe.
Lin Moryu asked, "What are you thinking about?"
Antares countered, "Why are you back?"
"I got what you wanted, and to avoid any complications, I ca back first."
As Lin Moryu spoke, he took out two boxes containing dragon pearls.
The dragon pearls lay quietly in the boxes, and Antares did not rush to take them. Instead, he said, "You killed quite a few dragons again."
It was clear that Antares was feeling a bit down.
Lin Moryu could roughly guess the reason, "When I left the dungeon, many dragons ca to kill , and I killed them instead."
"Were there Dragon Kings?" Antares asked.
Lin Moryu nodded, "Thirteen low-level Dragon Kings, one mid-level Dragon King, and a group of dragon warriors over level 80."
Antares glanced at Lin Moryu but said nothing.
He opened his mouth and sucked the two dragon pearls inside.
The thick fog that had been shrouding Antares’s body all year round emitted a roaring sound, with lightning and thunder, indicating so internal changes.
Lin Moryu took out another box, "The Dragon God asked to give this to you and also asked to convey a ssage."
Antares put on an indifferent look, "What is it? What could it possibly say?"
Lin Moryu handed over the box, "See for yourself."
Antares seed a bit hesitant and did not take the box.
Lin Moryu teased, "Are you afraid?"
Antares snorted, "What do I have to be afraid of? It can’t kill !"
At this mont, he changed his self-reference to "I," whereas he usually referred to himself as "this deity."
This change alone made Lin Moryu realize that Antares was actually very unsettled inside.
But Lin Moryu did not point it out, instead using reverse psychology to give him an out, "If you’re not afraid, then take it and see."
Antares followed the lead, as if falling for Lin Moryu’s trick, "See then, who’s afraid of whom!"
When the box was opened, Antares trembled violently upon seeing its contents.
Then his huge head began to shake uncontrollably, his eyes full of disbelief.
"This is... indeed... this is..."
He was extrely emotional but couldn’t form a complete sentence.
Antares’s emotions were sowhat out of control.
Lin Moryu watched him quietly, saying nothing.
After a while, Antares finally cald down a bit, "What did it ask you to convey?"
Lin Moryu said, "The Dragon God said, ’I’m sorry.’"
"I’m sorry!"
The three words hit Antares like a thunderbolt, leaving him dazed.
Antares suddenly raised his head and let out a deafening dragon roar.
Terrifying energy spread, causing the ground to crack.
The entire Ancient Battlefield trembled, and all the monsters inside, including world bosses, shivered in fear. Antares’s terror was fully displayed at this mont.
Lin Moryu still said nothing, not interrupting Antares, letting him roar as much as he wanted.
He knew Antares was venting, just as he had done before.
It’s better to vent than to keep it bottled up inside.
After a few minutes, Antares finally cald down, and Lin Moryu clearly saw a tear at the corner of Antares’s eye.
The tear did not fall but was instantly wiped away by his imnse power.
Lin Moryu did not point it out, just watched him quietly.
After a while, Antares seed to regain his usual calm, opened his mouth, and swallowed the Dragon God’s dragon pearl.
He looked at Lin Moryu, "Don’t ask about and it, even if you ask, I won’t tell."
Lin Moryu naturally understood that this was Antares’s private matter, and he wasn’t nosy enough to pry. Lin Moryu said, "Can I ask about sothing else then?"
"Sure! Since you brought the dragon pearls back for , I’ll answer whatever I can." Antares’s mood hadn’t fully recovered, still referring to himself as "I."
Lin Moryu said, "In the [Dragon King’s Palace] dungeon, I saw several giant dragons. They called themselves elental dragons, controlling so elents. They also called the dragons here lowly. Can you tell why?"
Antares looked at Lin Moryu and pondered for a mont, "If it were soone else, I definitely wouldn’t say."
Lin Moryu laughed, "If it were soone else, I wouldn’t ask either. After all, you’re my friend."
Lin Moryu’s words seed to strike a chord with Antares.
The word "friend" was particularly significant to Antares at this mont.
Antares trembled slightly, "The dragons you refer to are nothing compared to the true dragons."
"In the dragon clan, there is a strict hierarchy, with the highest being the Dragon God, the king of all dragons."
"The so-called [Dragon King’s Palace] dungeon actually refers to the Dragon God."
"However, the Dragon God usually doesn’t stay in the dungeon; it has too many matters to attend to. Most of the ti, it’s just a puppet in the dungeon."
"This ti, I don’t know why, but it was a coincidence."
Lin Moryu said softly, "The Dragon God said it was a whim, a feeling."
Antares responded, "The old guy’s realm is very high, so it’s possible. I’ll continue, listen carefully, I’ll only say it once."
"The Dragon God is the king of the dragon clan, possessing the ancestral dragon bloodline, and has revived it to a very high degree, making it invincible."
"Below it are pureblood dragons and mixed-blood dragons."
"All mixed-blood dragons spend their lives evolving towards pureblood dragons."
"And pureblood dragons aim to evolve towards the ancestral dragon."
"The elental dragons you saw in the dungeon are mixed-blood dragons."
Lin Moryu sowhat understood. Elental dragons are mixed-blood dragons, evolving towards pureblood dragons, purifying their bloodline and activating its power.
The holy dragons he saw later already had so characteristics of pureblood dragons, their bodies evolving from the short and stout form of giant dragons to a more slender form.
Antares, without saying, must be more than a pureblood dragon, likely possessing the ancestral dragon bloodline as well.
From his words, Lin Moryu could sense his disdain for pureblood dragons, and even when ntioning the Dragon God’s ancestral dragon bloodline, he spoke as an equal.
Lin Moryu kept Antares’s words in mind, always observing Antares’s expression.
From his expression, he could analyze a lot of information.
Lin Moryu saw that the disdain in Antares’s eyes was growing stronger.
His tone also changed accordingly.
"As for the dragons in this world, they are just bastards, the lowest kind, not even considered sub-dragons."
His tone was full of contempt.
Lin Moryu asked, "But there are mbers of the dragon clan with atavistic bloodlines. It’s said that their Dragon Emperor also has an atavistic bloodline."
Antares sneered, "Nonsense atavistic bloodline, let tell you a story. Once, there was a pureblood idiot who died while awakening the ancestral dragon bloodline."
"Then it exploded, and part of its flesh and blood scattered to a certain world, accidentally eaten by so primitive monsters of that world."
"Those monsters then mutated, inheriting a trace of the pureblood dragon’s bloodline, and called themselves the dragon clan."
"The so-called Dragon Emperor is just soone with a slightly purer bloodline. It can never reach the super god level, half-step super god is its limit, the bloodline limitation is there."
"Now you know where those dragons co from."
Lin Moryu finally understood that the dragons in this world originated this way.
No wonder they looked so strange, different from the giant dragons Lin Moryu had seen.
When he first awakened his profession, he had seen giant dragons, and they were indeed very different from the dragon clan.
The long-standing confusion was finally answered, giving him a sense of clarity.
But new questions arose, "The elental dragons I saw in the dungeon didn’t seem to be very high level."
Antares said, "Those are just their puppet avatars, do you think their true bodies would enter the dungeon?"
"Let tell you sothing, in our dragon clan, even the worst mixed-blood dragon is born at the god level, and reaches high god level upon adulthood."
"This is for those idiots who don’t train at all, just sleeping to achieve this."
"If they train a bit, reaching the super god level is not difficult."
Lin Moryu was shocked.
Not training, just sleeping, and they can reach high god level.
That’s a level that can wield laws.
Training a bit to beco a super god is not difficult.
And this is for the worst mixed-blood dragons, what about the stronger mixed-blood dragons? Or pureblood dragons... even those awakening the ancestral dragon bloodline...
The dragon clan’s power far exceeded his imagination.
So, the so-called Dragon Emperor here is really nothing, no wonder Antares is so disdainful.
In this way, it seems that the human race is also nothing.
Suddenly, Lin Moryu shuddered, realizing he was wrong.
"It’s not like that, Laelin once said, the human race is a great race, full of geniuses."
"Our world’s human race may not be strong, but that doesn’t an all human races are weak."
"And our world’s human race is not completely weak..."
"At least in the last era, there were super gods, although they can’t compare to the true dragon clan, at least there’s a chance."
"And in this era, there’s ..."
