  Chapter 308 Tinder Heart (23)

  To be honest, at the first moment, what Ian thought was not the spit of the crystallized dragon, but 'what baby did it eat, is it going to spit it out now? '.

   In a sense, this conjecture is not wrong.

  Because of the crystallized dragon, it showed the furnace center in its body to Ian.

   Now, the boy knew why the other party had to swallow him in the mouth before he began to transfer authority... because this is indeed something that can only be seen in the other party's mouth.

  A vortex of light embedded in a peculiar throat bone.

This peculiar larynx—let's say it's a larynx—extends from the spine structure of the crystal dragon, and it has an obvious artificial port on it, similar to the 'data port on the back of the neck of Ian, or all Terrans. ', but it is far larger than a human's data port, and has more functions, and it is likely to adapt to various large-scale plug-ins.

   And right in the center of this bone, there is such a strange vortex of light in the Moran steel.

Morion steel is a kind of psionic metal. It is not a pure substance, but it is not a physical psionic energy like a goblin. In a sense, it is closer to the crystallization of elements, that is, the condensation of pure "life force". Cast alloy that picks up metal masonry grit from surrounding rock formations and material zones, automatically repairing areas in need of repair.

   Various creations made of Moran steel will not have rejection reactions, and can be used as materials for various artificial organs and artificial bones. It's just that it's too expensive, and it's not suitable for luxury to use it as a raw material. There are more, cheaper and better alloys that can do this.

  But now, Ian saw it, a... U disk made entirely of Moran steel? Or mobile storage tools.

   And in this tool, the dazzling source quality vortex is shining.

In Ian's eyes, predicting the horizon day, the magnificent gold and silver two-color light flow vibrated the incomparably complicated inscription structure, forming countless flying birds with flapping wings, and many flying birds revolved around, forming an extremely complicated vortex, magnificent and beautiful. magnificent.

The surging and magnificent source quality is continuously gushing out from this vortex. Although the number is not large, it is endless... If it is not for the ether crystal dragon is about to die, the source quality that is gushing out of it is definitely Ian's current See dozens of times!

   "Fire...Ether Furnace...Gold and Silver..."

  Ian muttered to himself, he knew what the thing in front of him was.

  【Fire core (unfinished)】

  【Fourth Energy Level·Incomplete·Authority·Inedible】

[The energy cores manufactured by Sequoia Laboratories imitated the spark engine in the 'Obera Spark Spaceship'. Due to the lack of sufficient source quality control technology, the quality of all the spark cores is not up to standard, and it is impossible to create a perfect spaceship. Bubble】

[However, even if it is defective, it does not mean that it cannot be used. A defective ether furnace is still an ether furnace. Although it needs to continuously input refined source quality as a maintenance resource, the fire core can still output a large amount of natural psionic energy. Energy, with an exchange ratio of about 1:8, is a super energy source that is almost created out of nothing]

  【Most creatures on Terra cannot withstand fire without special modification】

  【…】

   "The Tinder Hearth... is actually non-physical? It is composed of a flowing inscription structure..."

  Ian whispered to himself: "Sure enough, although Sequoia Base is not a base dedicated to energy design, but because of various powerful artificial creatures, it still made some kindling cores dedicated to creatures..."

   "But even so, it is not 100% complete—even the crystallized dragon cannot bear the power of the fire core. It is not until now, thousands of years later, that such an ether crystallized dragon has appeared."

  The Sequoia Base back then, or in other words, the pre-epoch Terra civilization, must have hoped that the "Crystal Dragon", a series of man-made ecological creatures, could become the core of the biosphere for future alien immigration.

   Therefore, the tinder stove is specially designed for them as an energy source.

   No, it's not just the crystal dragon... The Frostmoth probably has a similar loading socket in its body.

  The two monsters of the fourth energy level may have fought each other for the heart of the fire, and finally both died in the ice abyss of the ruins.

   Judging from the final results, it is clear that the crystallized dragons are slightly better—their descendants have always inherited the fire heart, and although most of them have not adapted, this generation has emerged such transcendent species as the ether crystallized dragons.

   A real maze master.

   "...You're going to give me this thing, so I can never tell anyone else about it."

  Ian took a deep look at the upper jaw of the crystal dragon, and he could guess the expression of the crystal dragon at this moment—the other party must have thought about all this long ago.

Whether it is Master Gosser, or Isengard, or even the later Bishop of White Mist, it is impossible for them to know about the 'Fire Seed'... Perhaps, the nun of the Spiritual Tool Church may know something, but it must be very limited , at most know that Tinder is a very efficient real ether furnace or something like that.

  As for things like ecological fireships, alien ecosystems, superluminal engines, and warp speed navigation, the other party must know nothing about them.

  If he knew, it would be absolutely impossible for the Spiritual Equipment Church to send only such a small number of people.

   After all, even Ian has a silver chip to know all this, and it is almost impossible for them to obtain this information.

  But the Ether Crystal Dragon knows—in its blood, there is information about fire.

  The other party was originally the Terra civilization of the pre-epoch, in order to create a cosmic super life like the ether dragon, and created the "bio-ecological core"... Such an existence can definitely carry the ether furnace.

   Rather, if there is no ether furnace, the crystal dragon is not perfect at all.

But just like the pre-epoch civilization did not understand the ether furnace at all, the crystalline dragon did not understand it-most of these artificial creatures only have the fourth energy level, which proves that if they are really as perfect as the design drawings, It has long been a brand new fifth energy level creature!

"and many more."

  Thinking of this, Ian felt that he had overlooked something, but soon, he reacted and opened his eyes wide: "True dragon!"

   "Those real dragons of the fifth energy level!"

   "If we say that those creatures that naturally have a fifth energy level... are creatures that naturally have a 'magic core' and an 'ether core' in their bodies, and are perfectly adapted... No wonder they are so powerful!"

More than that.

   "Old Dragon!"

   Lowering his head, Ian stared at his chest.

  Mr. Hilliard's core is violently agitating at this moment... It is longing, longing for the power of the fire core, longing for its source quality structure.

  —This is what can really complement its existence!

   Yes, Cologne!

  Gulong, a creature without any evolutionary chain, without any traceability of Warcraft...isn't it just a powerful, artificial super creature?

   It’s just like the Crystal Dragon. If the Ether Crystal Dragon appeared on Terra Continent out of thin air, wouldn’t it be an ancient dragon? A powerful existence that can manipulate pure source energy and grow to the limit, enough to threaten a country, or even many countries!

  A man-made biological weapon of the interstellar age... is indeed enough to set off a natural disaster in today's Terra.

   And now.

  The ether crystal dragon who has the qualifications of an ancient dragon wants to give him the heart of the fire seed.

   As a reward for 'sealed'.

  It is impossible for Ian to talk about the Tinder Hearth with other people. It represents too much significance and is too precious, and no one knows its existence.

The Ether Crystal Dragon entrusted the Tinder Heart to Ian. Apart from knowing that it could not keep this treasure, the giant beast also knew very well that if other people knew that their offspring might have the power to adapt to Tinder, then they would definitely be regarded as tool of war.

   It was even more miserable, being made into a potion... even before it had time to grow up and leave offspring, it was made into a material that could increase the adaptability to the tinder core.

  Compared with this possibility, it is better to give it to other people—at least Ian does not seem to reveal the possibility of holding the Tinder Heart, and they are all accomplices who hold the Tinder.

   In this way, at least his offspring have a little chance of growing up.

  Of course, the Ether Crystal Dragon didn’t know about this matter. To tell the truth, it just had no other choice. At least the ‘humanoid ancient dragon’ in front of him gave him a feeling of closeness, and he didn’t refuse the proposal to raise its descendants.

   "Okay, I promise you."

  Ian knew that the Ether Crystal Dragon was waiting for his reply, so he sighed and replied seriously: "I will take care of your descendants, at least to ensure that you will not become extinct."

  He can't refuse tinder. Whether it is the core of the ancient dragon, or a creation for the civilization of the pre-epoch—he has a complete set of design drawings for the fire, as long as it corresponds to a real fire, there is a possibility to optimize it again.

  In the hands of Ian, the power of Tinder is far greater than that of everyone on Terra.

   See Ian make up his mind. The ether dragon uttered a soft moan that he didn't know whether it was relief or finally relief.

  Xungu stretched forward, and Ian raised his left hand silently.

  In the boy's eyes, there was a surge of gold and silver light, with a little blood-colored mist.

  He touched the vortex of light before his eyes.
