The Journey of the Rainbow Dragon

Chapter 215 Floating City and the Taste of Freedom

Faced with Ron's doubts, the old king hesitated for a long time, and finally he said:

"Vivian was bathed in the blood of Titans when she was born. Perhaps this is the reason why she has the blood of Titans in her body."

Ron was not very satisfied with this answer.

He tapped the colorful scales lightly and suddenly asked:

"Isn't the space rift between the Titan plane and Karen sealed? Where did the Titan's hard work come from?"

Ron seriously suspected that the old man might be hiding some key information.

Looking at the doubtful young dragon in front of him, the old king sighed and had no choice but to continue telling the story of the incident:

"Fourteen years ago, I traveled throughout the Rose Kingdom, hoping to find the floating city left by the legendary Karen's first demigod [Machine Lord] Weskelly Beach."

Hearing the words [Floating City],

Ron's eyes suddenly lit up, and he was ecstatic.

It's really hard to find a place to go after wearing iron shoes, but that person is in a dimly lit place!

It turns out that the floating city really exists and was built by that genius goblin demigod?

No wonder I haven't found any clues.

The Cullen Encyclopedia did not record Wesley Beach's construction of the floating city at all, and no relevant information was left at all.

Ron estimated that there may be only relevant records left in the Rose Royal Secret Book in the entire Karen.

Although he was excited, Ron's face showed no emotion.

He did not interrupt the old king, but allowed him to continue speaking.

The old king did not notice the change in the young dragon's mood. He recalled the scene at that time and slowly recounted the encounter between the king and the village girl.

"The floating city left behind by Weskelly Beach is the culmination of his lifelong efforts."

"According to the royal secret code, Weskelly, the goblin demigod, spent hundreds of years building the flying city before mysteriously disappearing, and the weapons included included weapons capable of killing the demigod. Titan's Star Core Bomb"

"I thought this weapon might be able to help the Titans invade, so I used the name of patrol to explore ancient ruins, hoping to find clues about the goblin floating city."

"But what I didn't expect was that instead of finding the floating city during this exploration, I encountered her."

Having said this, the old king sighed again.

He raised his head and looked at Ron: "Do you know what freedom feels like?"

"free?"

Ron frowned again.

The old king didn't seem to think that the young dragon would answer. He said to himself:

"It was in that small town that I met her."

There was sadness and memory in the old king's tone.

“That girl was a free spirit who raised a herd of cows on a farm and made a living from it.”

"She was the only person in the town who could see through my disguise. By some strange combination of circumstances, I stayed in her cabin for one night. We talked a lot that night."

"I found a long-lost peace with her, and when I told her about my goals, she asked me a question."

Ron couldn't help but interjected: "The so-called taste of freedom?"

The old king nodded.

"I gave a lot of answers, but she laughed and said nothing until the end."

The old king couldn't help but recall that night again.

The breeze passed through the window and floated the girl's hair.

The silky milk dripped into the container, creating ripples like ripples.

The farm girl boiled milk for him and said with a playful smile:

"In my opinion, the smell of freedom is probably the smell of cow dung on the farm."

Ron wrinkled his nose slightly after hearing this.

It was hard for him to imagine that the smell associated with "freedom" was actually cow excrement.

But he could feel that there was an unspeakable emotion in the old king's words.

Such sentiments were not expected of a king.

The relationship between Vivian's mother and the king is definitely not the story of "the king's drunken sex" as Gandalf knew.

The relationship between them should be very good, but I don't know why they would do that kind of drama.

The old king paused and continued:

"For her, the smell of cow dung represented the aroma of the land and real life. On that farm, she lived with the cows and enjoyed a sense of freedom and harmony with nature."

"but."

The old king suddenly fell silent.

He subconsciously glanced at the wooden bookmark on the desktop and said in a deep voice:

"I took away her freedom and forced her to come back to the palace with me."

"But I didn't expect that those Titans would be so crazy."

At this point, the old king's wrinkled hands began to tremble slightly, and a trace of pain appeared in his cloudy eyes.

"After I returned to the palace, the seal of the underground space crack was briefly opened by the group of Titans!"

"They don't know how they actually bypassed the perception of the spiritual body and directly crossed the space rift."

The old king still felt scared when he recalled the scene after returning to the palace.

"Later, I carefully searched for relevant records in the secret book, and speculated that it should be a blood sacrifice ritual."

As he spoke, he clenched his fists unconsciously, with anger burning in his eyes:

“But to start this blood sacrifice ritual, someone in the main plane needs to actively offer a sacrifice to start it!

"This shows that there are humans in the Rose Kingdom actively contacting the Titans for invasion!"

"It's a pity that I haven't found the guy who initiated the ceremony yet, otherwise"

The old king's eyes gradually dimmed.

He still remembers that day.

When the space crack in the underground was opened, the Titan's violent power was instantly released.

Fortunately, under the pressure of the plane, the group of Titan gods could only maintain the combat power of demigods, which allowed Brian XVII, who had a spiritual body, to use tricks to defeat them.

Even so, the palace was almost reduced to ruins that day.

In the end, it was thanks to the cover of the nine magic formations that the residents of the royal capital didn't notice.

Although the old king's spirit body sealed those cracks with all its strength, some of the royal members living in the palace were still contaminated by the Titan's blood.

This includes Vivian's mother.

Under the erosion of the Titan's blood, their bodies began to mutate, becoming extremely powerful and violent.

The old king continued sadly:

"I thought about it for a long time and finally decided to resolve this matter before they mutated."

"I executed them all, including her."

He was forced to execute those who had mutated.

They were once the people closest to him, but now they are about to become uncontrollable monsters, no longer possessing human reason and emotion.

This was an unbearable pain for the old king.

Ron, who understood the cause and effect, sighed softly:

"So, Vivian was eroded by the Titan's blood in her embryo?"

The old king nodded.

"Yes, after that accident, the blood of Titans and the blood of humans were intertwined, creating a unique existence like Vivian."

"In terms of blood, Vivian is actually the descendant of Titans and humans."

The old king's voice was a little hoarse.

Vivian was the only child he had with the farm girl, and the only trace of her existence.

She has both Titan and human blood, and is destined to have a unique destiny.

The old king knew this fact very well, and even though he painfully executed other infected people, he did not have the heart to treat his own daughter.

Gandalf secretly sent Vivian out that night, and the trick of changing the civet cat for the prince was actually done under the old king's nose.

You must know that Gandalf is just a mage with the strength of a great magister. There is no way he can deceive the king by playing mirror magic in a royal prison monitored by a legendary mage.

perhaps

that moment

It was his emotions as a father that overcame the reason of a human king, making him choose to ignore the fact that Vivian survived.

The old king was well aware of Vivian's special identity and destiny. In order to protect her, he chose to hide her existence and keep her away from danger.

He understands that his responsibility is to protect the kingdom and its people, but at the same time he is also a father, and his love for his daughter overcomes everything.

Ron and the little golden man stared at the old king silently, and they could feel the sadness and helplessness in his heart.

Family and country, hatred and resentment, the road goes half way to the sky. If he steps out, no matter which way he goes, he can never look back.

But running a country often involves making such difficult choices.

After talking about what happened back then, the old king looked at the iridescent young dragon and tentatively asked:

"Your relationship with Vivian."

The old king already knew about Vivian's summoning of a crystal baby dragon.

But when he thought about Vivian's Titan blood, he didn't take it to heart.

He had also suspected that the dragon in front of him was the dragon summoned by Vivian.

But his colorful scales are nothing like the crystal dragon reported by his subordinates!

As we all know, crystal dragons are almost transparent white gem dragons, and it is impossible to have seven-colored scales.

The old king naturally excluded the correct answer.

But what he never expected was that his daughter was not summoning an ordinary crystal dragon, but a legendary iridescent dragon!

The disparity in information put the old king into a state of worry.

He thought that the other party was dissatisfied with Vivian's behavior of enslaving a dragon, and at the same time he discovered the Titan's blood in her body.

"What if this heir has any dangerous thoughts about Vivian?"

The old king frowned and thought in his mind, how to let the man in front of him let his daughter go.

The old man tried to say:

"If you don't like it, I can arrange for her to leave the capital."

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Ron who had a black look on his face.

Just kidding, Vivian is gone, you come to cook for me?

Will you complete my travel goal in four years?

Ron complained in his mind and said with a serious face:

"Vivian is not a tool that you can manipulate. She has her own choice, and she will determine her own destiny."

"But no matter what she chooses, I will be her biggest supporter."

The old king and the little golden man looked at the iridescent young dragon with determination in his eyes in confusion.

You two have such a good relationship, you should have told me earlier!

Why should I worry? This is it!

The old king took a deep breath, straightened up, and stared at the iridescent baby dragon firmly.

"You and I will respect Vivian's choice and provide her with support and protection. This is also my final redemption."

The little golden man standing aside also nodded in agreement.

He actually represents the extremely kind side of the old king, otherwise he would not be willing to stay in the middle of the space rift for hundreds of years to protect mankind.

The iridescent baby dragon flapped its wings gently, with a trace of satisfaction in its eyes.

"Good, then let's talk about the next king."

"good."

After a while of communication.

"Um?"

"What! You said you don't want to be the king?"

The old king and the spirit body suddenly widened their eyes, looked at the rainbow young dragon in front of them, and said in surprise.

They originally thought that this young "young man" would be willing to accept the throne. After all, this is a position above tens of millions of people.

According to incomplete statistics from ten years ago, the current population of the Rose Kingdom has exceeded 340 million!

These are the cornerstones needed to become a god!

For thousands of years, under the regulations of the kingdom, no one has dared to intervene in the missionary work of this huge group of believers.

Only the Supreme Scepter has absorbed part of the power of faith through the issuance of contemporary kings' gold coins.

Even a god would feel trembling when faced with such a large number of non-believers (referring to those without formal faith, not pure non-believers) in the Rose Kingdom?

However, the two of them never expected that the other party would refuse to accept the country.

"Hey, what I mean is that I will not have the obligations of a king, but I still need the rights of a king."

Ron raised his eyebrows and emphasized his thoughts again.

Ignoring the other party's reaction, he continued to speak slowly:

"I have chosen the next king for the Rose Kingdom. I will personally crown her, and Rose will also have its first queen."

"Her? Queen?"

The old king frowned, thinking about the meaning of these two words.

The old king ignored Ron's thoughts and began to think about the next king that Ron just mentioned.

A girl's face that I had only seen in photography suddenly flashed in my mind.

A flash of inspiration occurred to him, and he suddenly raised his head and said in surprise:

"Could it be that you want Vivian?"

Ron nodded and admitted the old king's suspicion.

Seeing the old king frowning, he said slowly:

"However, she is helpless, even though she has friends with several young metal dragons."

"But according to the no-fight agreement, those dragons cannot support her openly. How can she bear it with her power?"

"Hey, hypocritical humans."

Ron smiled disdainfully and looked at the confused old king with playful eyes.

This old fox is still acting with himself.

As expected, this guy has completely inherited the existence of human nature. Although Ron is not mentioned in every sentence, it is Ron who is referred to behind every sentence.

"I"

The iridescent baby dragon shook his head and interrupted the old king's words.

"Don't you already have the answer in your heart?"

Ron looked at the human in front of him, raised the corners of his mouth, and slowly said:

"I am her biggest supporter!"
