Soul of Burning Steel

It took Joshua three hours to let Hei gradually adapt to the actions of the human body.

This is a very normal thing. It is impossible for a giant dragon that has never had the experience of walking on humanoid bipeds to adapt to the action methods of a strange body immediately after transformation, not to mention that Hei has no inherited memory, even more so.

For three hours, the soldiers took painstaking efforts to finally allow the black dragon girl to walk and jump more smoothly and speak a few words in human language, but as long as she didn't pay attention, she would still fall to the ground neatly.

As early as a few months ago, Hei was able to understand human language, but the throat structure in the form of a giant dragon could not speak, but even so, Hei often communicated with Joshua and others through roars, so it was easier for her to learn language than to speak. Learn to walk more quickly.

"Master..." The dragon girl who refused the help of Steel Element No. 1 and tried to walk alone accidentally fell down again. She slowly stood up from the steel floor of the cabin at the bottom of Time and let out a soft cry.

The black human form has a light voice, which is very pleasant to hear, but it stutters when speaking: "Without a tail, human... walking, balance is so difficult."

When she said this, she looked at the soldier in front of her with admiration, as if it was something extraordinary to be able to stand firmly on the ground.

"Zi, zi, zi." On the side, the steel element that was brought in to help Hei with his walking training also nodded slightly, and made a murmur of unknown meaning. At the same time, Hei coughed again, and a series of straight golden fire pillars immediately It appeared out of nowhere, burning the steel floor of the cabin red.

Around, there are seven or eight similar melting traces.

"..."

Joshua, whose sleeve had been burned long ago, opened his mouth to speak, but couldn't say a word. He could only shake his head and sigh, while Hill and Fina, who were watching from the corner, expressed that such a short Within a short period of time, the black dragon girl has already reached this level, which can be regarded as intelligent and talented.

"When I first incarnated as a human, it took a lot of time to control the balance of power in my body."

Fina fiddled with the tips of her hair, and said with a slight smile, "But I have inherited memories, and it's only been a few hours. It's impossible for Hei to master it so quickly."

"Starting from scratch, this kind of progress is indeed not slow." Hill nodded slightly, stretched his waist, and said with some sleepiness: "I think, Joshua, you should take a little rest now... anyway, I want to go back I'm resting, I was woken up by you when I fell asleep not long ago..."

Because the black dragon girl's preliminary training was almost over, the elf boy left and Fina also encouraged the dragon girl and left after a few words. There was the sound of two people chatting in the corridor, and only Qiao Xiu was left in the cabin. Ya, Hei and Chu.

"Well, it's good enough."

The soldier muttered to himself, for him, whether Hei can quickly adapt to the life of the human body is secondary, as long as she is happy, anyway, the humanization magic can be switched at will after the first casting If it doesn't work, let the dragon girl change back to the dragon form, and guard the time together with Fina, and slowly train it after returning to the territory.

Thinking of this, Joshua's originally helpless expression softened. He stretched out his hand, stroked his black and silky hair, and said in a low voice, "Just now I fought against sea beasts, and I brought them here for training again. Thank you for your hard work." .”

After speaking, he looked up at the cabin on the bottom floor of Time, then shook his head and said, "You are in human form now, so you can't live in this kind of place. I'll find you a room."

"Um!"

The black dragon girl seemed a little worried, and she accidentally spewed dragon breath when she spoke, so she covered her mouth with her hands, and only made a slight echo. She nodded repeatedly to the soldier's opinion, looking very happy.

At this time, Hei subconsciously wanted to stick out his tongue and lick Joshua's hand again, but how could the warrior let her succeed, with just a light touch of his finger, the dragon girl felt a headache and did not dare to do anything wrong.

"Hold my hand." In order to prevent Hei from falling after a few steps like before, Joshua thought for a while, and then stretched out his hand to Hei. After confirming that the girl had grasped it firmly and did not open her mouth, the soldier turned around. Turned around, took her and the steel element out of the cabin.

And on the other side of the ark.

——Time Ark, a temporary alchemy laboratory.

Although the name is temporary, this alchemy laboratory located in the Temple Ark does not have the slightest shabby atmosphere. In fact, this laboratory, which occupies an entire large cabin, is well planned, with bright interior lighting, and the placement of every utensil The place was very neat and orderly, and there were several small fist-sized constructs flying around like bees in the air, carrying materials and materials back and forth, exuding a professional temperament from beginning to end.

In the center of the spacious cabin, a series of large-scale alchemy machines are running quietly. They are connected to a large silver-white workbench, above which is suspended a huge silver metal ring with a diameter of three meters, surrounded by countless light blue runes. flow.

In front of the workbench, a petite girl with gray hair was wearing goggles and was working seriously with her head raised. She manipulated the runes in mid-air, coordinated with the tools on the workbench, and fine-tuned the metal ring little by little. The structure on it, and engraved a series of spells on it.

And a gentle woman with platinum long hair and an eyepatch stood behind the girl who was concentrating on her work, watching her quietly.

Time passed, and after an unknown amount of time, the gray-haired girl finally engraved the last rune on the huge metal ring. She took off the goggles tiredly, and rubbed her eyes: "The third stage of the holy text inscription Finished... Sister Saya, now you can try to inlay the holy artifact."

"Well, thank you for your hard work."

The big nun slowly approached the workbench, she raised her head to 'look' at the metal ring suspended in mid-air, and said with some surprise: "Norni Nolan, as expected of a so-called genius alchemist, I didn't expect you to actually To be able to manufacture the carrier of the sacred vessel according to our requirements so quickly, and complete the inscription of the joint spell... really amazing."

Saya is not the kind of eloquent person, so she only praised her like this, expressing her inner surprise, and the girl named Nuonuo was also very happy when she heard it, she said softly: "Actually, thanks to The last alchemist left complete information for me, otherwise I would not have completed the structure so quickly."

"If it is an ordinary alchemist who wants to understand the research materials of other professionals, it will probably take a few months. We can't wait for such a long time."

Before walking to the workbench, the big nun once again used her special 'vision' in detail to perceive the slowly rotating metal ring. After a long time, she smiled and patted the girl's shoulder, nodded and said: "Perfect It meets the requirements, it is really powerful, Nuonuo, if we can destroy the abyss crack this time, you will have at least one-third of the credit!"

"This is what I should do." Taking Saya's hand in her arms, the gray-haired girl stared at the ring on the workbench, with a complicated light flashing in her eyes.

All the regions in this world related to chaos and the abyss are actually restricted within a certain range, such as the plague land in the Western Mountains and the famine land in Moldavia. They are governed by the Church of the Seven Gods or the local The guardian family guards to ensure that the chaos power will not spread widely.

Only the Abyss of Anos is different. The cracks in the abyss are hidden in the deep sea, and it cannot be restricted.

In the past, the church could still send clergymen to guard this sea area, but now that the five-color dragons are besieging the holy mountain, the church has no more power. In addition, they seem to have a deal with the abyss. In order to avoid accidents, the holy mountain has made up its mind. Destroy it completely.

The metal ring on the silver alchemy workbench is the church's preparation for destroying the chasm of the abyss.

The full name of the metal ring is the Wheel of Holy Light. It was developed by a church believer who was proficient in alchemy three hundred years ago. It has the function of condensing the energy in several holy vessels and amplifying it. At the beginning, this believer just wanted to invent some kind of powerful weapon, but it turned out that the Holy Light Wheel, which can stably output holy light energy, was more suitable as the defensive core supporting the church's barrier.

The so-called holy utensils are utensils that contain holy light. Since there is no natural holy light energy in nature, most of the utensils are the personal belongings of the priests of the past. After years of infiltration, these utensils often contain The very large power of the Holy Light, bringing these forces together, is enough to form an indestructible defense, or an indestructible attack.

After adjusting the design of the Holy Light Wheel, the Church of the Seven Gods transformed it into a one-time consumable that can instantly release all the holy light in the holy vessel. As long as you are willing to pay enough holy vessels, its power can even be In an instant exceeding the energy level of the legendary level, such an explosion is enough to destroy the cracks in the abyss, completely disrupting the space-time structure of this area.

Originally, the church had prepared a wheel of holy light as a self-destruct device, but Time has never been able to go deep into the abyss of Anos, and entered the central maelstrom to find the crack in the abyss. During the fourth exploration, Time arrived at the maelstrom On the outside, however, it was attacked by several powerful chaotic monsters, and the ark was almost sunk. The team leader Robzek at that time could only choose to use the wheel of holy light to block the opponent's offensive and retreat for the time being.

But in the course of the battle, the alchemist who originally belonged to the church and transformed the wheel of holy light was seriously injured. Recreate a new Wheel of Light before entering the central maelstrom.

Obviously, this girl whose full name is Norni Nolan is indeed a true genius. In just a few days, she used the imperfect alchemy laboratory on the Ark Time to create a new holy light. The wheel, and looking at the structure, it seems that it has been faintly strengthened a lot.

"In any case, we are grateful to you."

Saya's character is a very traditional gentle clergyman. Seeing the gray-haired girl's tired face, she couldn't help touching her cheek with some distress: "Let's go, Nuonuo, go and take a rest."

"Okay." Continuing to hold the big nun's hand, Nuonuo showed a sweet smile and immediately agreed.

In the rest cabin.

Joshua, who was introducing the well-behaved black dragon girl to Robzek and Lolanda, saw the big nun open the door out of the corner of her eye.

The soldier didn't care much at first, he just wanted to say hello, but he saw the gray-haired girl following Saya again.

Suddenly, Joshua's heart trembled.

——How did this guy appear here? !
