Volume Dragon: Start by obtaining the Infinity Gems

Chapter 302 Dreamland
The sand was boiling in the moonlight, and each grain of sand was reflecting stars that shouldn't exist. Nemesis suddenly opened his eyes and looked around blankly.

At midnight with a silver moon in the sky, a white figure was standing in the distance.

A beautiful woman wearing a white dress and with skin as white as black pearls.

The pale sleeves were wrapped in the eternal night wind, and the silver rune patterns swam on her collarbone like a magic net trapped in amber. Twelve strings of foot bells sank under the sea of ​​sand, and the sound of the bells condensed into solid mist, flowing over the crystallizing scales of the scroll dragon. When the woman raised her arm, the desert suddenly lost its thickness, and Nemesis saw the rune of his true name embedded on the inside of her wrist bone, and each stroke was bleeding.

"You took my pages." The woman's voice was like the tremor of a sandstorm engulfing the last obelisk. In the hourglass hanging from her ear, the blue sand on the upper layer was turning into the spires of a black city, and the silver sand on the lower layer was condensing into the curled embryo of ebony.

"Urm? Is he your page?" Nemesis asked with difficulty, his eyes full of awe.

White clothes, black skin, and patterns like magic web.
The person in front of you is the Lady of Mystery, the Mother of All Laws, the Goddess of Magic, and the incarnation of the Demonic Web - Midnight.

Also known as Mystra.

The woman chuckled, like a swaying wind chime. "You seem nervous? That's not what the old man told me."

Nemesis forced a smile. Little old man? He guessed that the other party was probably referring to Oghma.

"My most proud believer and most powerful chosen one, Elminster, is trapped in the abyss." Midnight said with some sadness.

"But a disaster was coming, and I didn't have anyone I trusted enough to entrust it to."

"It was Ogma. He told me that I should trust you." Midnight looked at Nemesis thoughtfully.

"He said that you are the most special scroll dragon he has ever seen, with magical talents that would shock even gods."

Nemesis was not happy when he heard Midnight's praise, but instead broke out in a cold sweat, because he was very worried that his deepest secrets would be discovered by the incarnation of the magic web.

really
Midnight shook his head slightly and sighed, "As the god who knows everything, Oghma made a mistake. But it's normal. After all, the Demonic Network is a great existence that surpasses the gods. If I didn't have a special connection with it, I probably wouldn't have discovered it."

"You seem to have some secrets." Midnight said softly, with a look of curiosity and inquiry in his eyes. "You are just a mortal, but you have an extremely noble nature, which is even enough to pry open and even influence the magic network."

There was confusion in her eyes. "In my opinion, you are just a scroll dragon with higher intelligence."

"But for some reason, after I saw you and checked the magic network data, I found that the magic network has been pouring a huge amount of magic power into you for free since you were born."

"It's really strange. I would have thought you were my chosen one."

Nemesis' mood hit rock bottom. Midnight had indeed discovered his abnormality. The other party was the incarnation of the magic network, and the abnormality brought by the Infinity Stones was definitely not something that could be perfunctorily explained by talent.

Midnight looked at the wrinkled face of the Volume Dragon and chuckled, saying mischievously, "Did you get scared? I haven't told you that I plan to dissect you."

Before Nemesis could escape, Midnight said, "Don't worry, you are Oghma's favorite. If I attack you, he will fight me to the death."

"He is my most powerful ally. Even Jaeger dare not neglect him. I don't want to offend him because of some little treasures." Midnight blinked.

Allies? Nemesis felt relieved. It seemed that Midnight would not make trouble for him.

Even so, he would not take it lightly and tell anyone the secret of the Infinity Stones. In his opinion, the essence of the Infinity Stones is much higher than the power of authority. He even suspected that this is a power comparable to or even beyond the great power of God.

Not to mention anything else, just the effect of the Mind Gem amplifying spellcasting resources tenfold. If he becomes a god in the future, the Mind Gem can also amplify true divine power. It is definitely a treasure that any god would do anything to get.

The current functions of the two activated Infinity Stones cannot allow him to defeat everyone in an instant, but if he gradually improves his essence, these functions will still be useful.

The effect will not be as simple as 1+1.

Midnight also found it funny to see that the little dragon dared to be distracted in front of him.

"Okay, let's get down to business." Midnight's words brought Nemesis back to reality. He asked cautiously, "Did you send the boy from Wuermu to me?"

Midnight smiled and nodded: "You are smart. I need you to protect him and never let the Ghost City take him away."

Nemesis asked in confusion: "The City of Ghosts? What is that?"

“A group of people who should have disappeared into history long ago.”

"However, you have to be careful," Midnight warned, "With your strength, it is still not enough to face the seven legendary wizards in the Ghost City."

"How much more?!" Nemesis was choked by his own saliva, his face full of disbelief.

Seven legendary wizards? Did the goddess think too highly of him?

Midnight curled his lips in disdain: "Does this scare you? He's just a legendary wizard, what's the big deal."

Juan Ce Long's eyelids twitched, and he was speechless. Of course, it's nothing to you, you are a powerful god who is high above.

And I'm just a small adult volume dragon.

As if seeing his dilemma, Midnight took out a holy emblem with a blue and white planet printed on it and handed it to him.

"Don't worry, those people in the City of Ghosts are learning the arcane knowledge of the ancient Netheril Empire, which is completely different from the current eight factions."

"The method they use to cast legendary spells is a system called the [Super Nine-Ring Spellcasting System]. As long as you carry this holy emblem, those arcanists will not be able to connect to the magic web around you and cast super nine-ring arcane spells."

"You should be confident that you can win against a group of arcanists who can only cast the ancient nine-ring arcane spell, right?" Midnight said lightly.

Nemesis was surprised and asked, "Netheril? Could it be that the so-called City of Ghosts has obtained Netheril's complete set of magic system knowledge?"

Midnight shook his head and said, "No, they are the orthodox descendants of Netheril. The lord of the City of Ghosts was a legendary arcanist of the Netheril Empire. He survived because he happened to escape the disaster of the collapse of the magic network in ancient times."

"But you don't need to know these for now."

"Listen carefully," Midnight looked into his eyes and said carefully, "I want you to remember this sentence firmly."

Under Nemesis' confused gaze, Midnight said, "When the flowers bloom Imbutu, you must let go of Ulm."

"What does it mean?"

Facing Nemesis's question, Midnight smiled calmly and said, "You will know by then."

The galaxy turned upside down, the sand rose, and with the departure of Nemesis, everything in the dream was collapsing.

Midnight stood quietly in the collapsing world, sighing softly, with confusion in his eyes.

“If you know your fate, can you really change it?”

A door opened behind her, and behind the door seemed to be the dream of a day elf.

That day, the elf with blonde hair and blue eyes lay quietly in the forest, closing her eyes and enjoying the gentle moonlight.

If Nemesis were here, he would definitely remember her as his companion on the journey to Dragon Island to obtain the [Demon Star of Troubled Times] - the Sun Elf Catherine.
