Chapter 562 Talk to the Dragon

A person who can experience the collapse of Gondor, the natural disaster of the devil, the death of the battlefield, and the rise of the coffin is indeed qualified to face all the bizarre things in this world indifferently. Melita Purnia has to admit that high Wen's statement makes sense.

What she didn't know was that what Gawain had experienced was far more than that - she had to add in the plane crash, travel through time and space, and hang in space for hundreds of thousands of years to make up Gawain's complete life.

In this unimaginably long life, the appearance of a dragon was just a trivial color embellishment in the blink of an eye to Gawain.

He was surprised and a little surprised, but overall...it wasn't a big deal.

He was no more surprised than someone in the distant Typhon Empire who invented fertilizer.

"To be honest, many humans think that giant dragons are just legends, but almost everyone who has studied history and dabbled in the supernatural realm knows that giant dragons are real - you just rarely show up in public," Gao Wen looked at Mei Rita Purnia's eyes protruding from the top of the veil, under normal conditions, really can't tell that these eyes belong to a giant dragon, "Who would have thought that you are actually beside us, Disguised... so well."

"Transfiguration spells themselves are handed down from the dragon race," Melita said with a chuckle. "We are good at disguising as any species, but to be honest, there is a race that is better at mimicry and disguise than us."

"A Kraken? Oh, I do know - Tyr even disguised herself as a pile of seaweed to avoid work. If it weren't for the fact that seaweed couldn't grow in the dock, she might have succeeded..."

The two chatted casually as if they had been friends for many years. The identities of people and dragons seemed to be forgotten by them. The atmosphere of the scene became strangely harmonious for a while, but in the end, the topic returned to Melita's race and the purpose of the dragon family. .

Now that the agent has chosen to be open and honest, Gawain's question is straightforward: "So, the Mithril Treasure House is actually controlled by the Dragon Clan?"

"It's true, in fact... it was our Dragon Race that built the Mithril Treasure House," Melita nodded calmly, "but I want to stress again, there is no conspiracy to be discovered here - the Dragon Race against any race on the continent. no malice..."

"And what about the land empire that was destroyed in the war against the tide?"

Gawain suddenly said a historical event that was definitely a sensitive topic to Melita's ears, causing her breathing to stop noticeably.

"You know a lot..." The humanoid dragon stared at Gawain, "This has exceeded the records of human history.

beyond human understanding of the world. "

Gao Wen laughed: "You know, there are many 'wonderful' people around me, and I don't necessarily know less than you about those ancient secrets."

"Is that siren..." Melita's eyes flashed a glimpse, then she shook her head, "It seems that you do know a lot of things, so our conversation can be more frank and honest. But about the Reverse Tide Chaos , I suggest you don't ask too much now, and if you see other dragons, it's best not to ask rashly."

Gawain immediately noticed one thing: Tyre called the war in ancient times the "War Against the Tide", while Melita called it "The Chaos Against the Tide", the deviation of a word, the amount of information brought out But it is huge.

And it looks like... this thing is even considered some kind of taboo in dragons?

Although he was very interested in the ancient war that might involve the "black trap", Gawain did not dwell on this issue, but lightly changed the subject: "Actually, I am curious, why do you so easily Revealing your dragon identity, your dragons are so mysterious in front of the world, isn't it very important to disguise yourself?"

"It's important, but it's not as important as you think," Melita said indifferently, "After I found out that you investigated the impact pit and that my lost items were still with you, I knew that you would definitely take the Mithril treasury. Instead of making things troublesome in the future, the Mithril Treasure House believes that it is better to directly raise the 'contact level' with you by connecting with the giant dragon, which is the best way to avoid accidents from historical experience."

"...It seems that you have a complete set of plans to deal with all kinds of accidents in the process of contacting the world," Gao Wen judged, "There is a strict plan, a strict organization, hierarchical management, and a huge scale... The purpose of establishing the silver treasure house is definitely not just to be a 'treasure house', right?"

"Our dragons have been paying attention to the Loren continent and the development and changes of all races and countries on this land. The Mithril Treasure House is a tool for us to observe the continent - of course, its 'treasure house' function is equally important. The dragons are a collection of treasures. race, you should have heard of this.”

Gawain raised his eyebrows and directly ignored the part about "collecting treasures": "Just observation?"

"Just to observe, we will not interfere in any affairs of the secular kingdom."

"Then what exactly is observation?" Gawain asked again, "Observing how the secular kingdom works? How does each race develop? Or... how do we face survival disasters like the magic tide?"

Melita replied indifferently: "It's all under observation."

"Am I also your observation target?"

Melita hesitated. "Maybe it's offensive, but in a sense... yes."

"Then what's the purpose of observation? Isn't it just to satisfy your curiosity?"

"Why can't it be?" Melita asked slyly, she obviously did not intend to answer this question directly, "Dragon is a very curious race."

"How long has the Mithril treasure house existed?"

"When did the oldest kingdom on the continent appear, and when was the Mithril treasure house established."

Gawain stared into Melita's eyes: "It can even be traced back to the last magic tide, right?"

"...It seems that you did get a lot of knowledge from the Kraken," Melita nodded after a brief silence, "As you said - back before the last wave, even back in the older days. Before the next wave. We may not always be called the 'House of Mithril', but agents will always appear on this continent."

"You won't be affected by the magic tide? Like the Kraken?"

"We do survive the tide, but we're not in the same situation as the Kraken."

"How did you resist the magic tide?"

"No comment for now."

"Then what is the black trap?"

"...still no comment."

Gawain stared at Melita's eyes for three minutes, before the latter sighed deeply, his tone full of helplessness: "There is really no comment, Duke Cecil."

Gawain was not reconciled that this difficult conversation with Long was fruitless, and he insisted on asking: "No comment - that is to say, you actually know, but you can't tell me?"

"You can understand that," Melita's answer became more hesitant than before. She seemed to be choosing words with extra difficulty, but she still tried to maintain etiquette, "I can't tell you, but it's not out of malice."

Intuition suddenly aroused Gawain's subconscious, and he seemed to sense something from Melita's reaction.

He asked cautiously: "Is the black trap related to the cause of the magic tide?"

"Not directly related."

He asked again: "The black trap...is it related to God?"

Melita fell silent.

But her eyes were fixed on Gawain, and she didn't move for a moment.

After a few seconds, her eyes gradually turned into shimmering golden vertical pupils, fine scales began to emerge near her cheeks and forehead, she opened her mouth, a mixture of low echoes that humans could not understand. The murmur came from her mouth. At this moment, Gawain noticed the shadow behind Melita-the shadow was gradually breaking free from the shackles of optical laws, and a pair of huge dragon wings were spreading out from the shadow: her shadow , is turning into a dragon.

Gao Wen nodded: "I already know the answer, no need to answer."

Melita's shadow quickly recovered, and her dragon-like eyes and scales immediately returned to normal.

She looked into Gawain's eyes and said softly, "We are still in the trap."

Finally, Gawain came into contact with the real secret.

He looked at the agent lady who had returned to normal, and suddenly became curious: "You told me so much... Is it because the so-called 'contact level' has been raised?"

Melita nodded: "Yes."

After that, Gawain talked a lot with Melita Purnia.

But in the end, he still didn't find out more inside information about the dragon clan - including where they lived, how big the Mithril treasury was on the mainland, what plan the dragon clan had in the face of the magic tide and the black trap, and what their plans were. Whether one step will take any action on the mainland.

Obviously, even if the "contact level" is raised, Melita has to keep a lot of secrets.

But this conversation has already satisfied Gawain.

He has gotten more than he originally expected.

But he also knew that since the Mithril Treasure House, or the Dragon Clan, took the initiative to be honest with him, it was definitely not for nothing.

"What do you hope to get from me?" Gawain asked, "The so-called raising the 'contact level' is probably not just about you telling me so many secrets, right?"

"Actually, we don't really want anything," Melita shook her head lightly, "Even this increase in contact level was due to my negligence and accident, we just want to be quiet bystanders - if there is anything What is required of you is that we hope that you will continue to work with us, as always, and keep our shared secrets."

Gawain couldn't help laughing: "To be honest, you should tell me about keeping a secret before you tell it."

"It doesn't make any difference," Melita spread her hands, "talking to someone like you is more beneficial than calculating, we believe that you are not a person who likes to spread the word, and... we don't really care that much about you. These secrets will not be preached.

"The Mithril Treasure House has existed on the mainland for many years. Hundreds of dynasties and countless people in the world have come into contact with us. In the long years, there have never been many horrifying 'secret stories' about the Mithril Treasure House. Some of them even It would roar for a century, but it would eventually become a mutilated history and legend in the changing dynasties.

"You can tell the whole conversation today - believe me, in a century it will become a story, in two centuries it will become a country tale, and in a third century... Not even your children and grandchildren will believe this."

Gawain wanted to say that the other party underestimated the ability of short-lived species to pass on information, but he thought of his more than 80 wives mentioned in a knight novel, and he couldn't say anything.

As long as the years are long, history will eventually be mixed with legends.

Gawain, who has also witnessed the long years, has to admit this.

"I'm not interested in spreading the secret around unless it's necessary," Gawain said.

"It couldn't be better."
