An Teng Meizi frowned: "Why? Could it be that some important person is coming here to inspect?"
"No, we reported your information to the higher authorities, and His Majesty the King was very interested in it, so he decided to meet you in person."
This moment is finally here. Meiko Anten sighed deeply in her heart. After enduring humiliation in this ghost place for two weeks, she finally got the opportunity to meet with the top leaders of Star Country.
"Okay." She replied calmly, showing indifference.
As if he was used to her behavior and way of answering, Anduin nodded, turned around and left with the bottles and jars in his hand.
Anten Meizi did not stay. After watching Anduin leave, she walked out of the laboratory and headed towards her room.
Now she not only had to find a way to get information about the location of the stone ball from the king, but also had to find a way to get it.
Either of these two things is not a big deal, but when put together they become very tricky. If you are not careful when trying to get information from them, it will arouse their vigilance.
The country of Star is too stable and does not have any external forces like the other three countries to help Anten Meiko advance the treasure-hunting process.
Fortunately, she stopped thinking about it and lay down after returning to her room. She immersed her consciousness in her mind and compared the architectural models she had collected with the map Chaos gave her.
The main purpose of doing this is to ensure one's own retreat route and find a way to enter the Feilong City Castle.
The exploration during this period has covered a large part of the area, so it is relatively simple. However, it is not easy to find the way into the castle. At least, Anten Meiko spent seven days exploring it and still couldn't find it.
But perhaps this question will be answered tomorrow.
Tonight she did not create a clone to leave here and continue exploring. Instead, she closed her eyes and slept for a while before getting up to take a shower and change clothes. After preparing everything, she sat on the edge of the bed with her eyes closed, waiting for the messenger to arrive.
The last two female soldiers on shift also arrived at the right time today, but they were obviously surprised when they saw that An Teng Meizi had already put on the dress she brought last night, and then they looked at her with shock in their eyes.
Meiko Anten has always been wearing linen clothes provided to experimental subjects, and this has not changed even after she became a so-called saint.
Moreover, because he did not deliberately manage his appearance, his hair was usually disheveled, with his long hair covering half of his face and only revealing one eye. No matter how you looked at him, he looked like a mentally ill lunatic.
But they didn't expect that the Saint Lady, who was usually teased as a lunatic by them after dinner, would turn out to be so beautiful after taking care of herself. She was so beautiful that even the two women felt jealous.
"What's wrong?" Seeing them standing there motionless, An Teng Meizi spoke up to remind them.
"Um, that, Lady Anya, Lord Anduin reminded you that today is the day you will have an audience with His Majesty the King, so you should stay here and wait for you and lead the way."
The two female soldiers were used to seeing Meiko Anten's usual appearance, so they were a little uncomfortable with seeing such a cute girl standing in front of them. Their tone was a little awkward for a moment.
"In that case, let's go." An Teng Meizi didn't understand and stood up and followed the two female soldiers out of the room, walking non-stop in the aisle.
After walking for a long time, they finally stopped in front of a very ordinary-looking room, and Anduin was already waiting there.
Volume 7: A Strange Journey to Another World: Chapter 169: The Saint Given by Heaven
The first time Anduin saw Ando Meiko, his eyes lit up and he praised her generously: "Not bad, I didn't expect you to look so beautiful dressed up. I'm sure His Majesty the King will like you too."
Although her hair is still the same long black hair, her face has turned into Melinda's because of the mask. She is definitely the top beauty that best conforms to the aesthetics of this world.
"Thank you for the compliment." Meiko Ando just nodded to him out of politeness, and her tone was still very cold.
Anduin smiled and did not respond. He did not care about Ando Meiko's attitude at all. After all, no one would be happy if slave magic was used on him for no reason. As long as the latter continued to cooperate with his experiment, there would be no problem.
"Well, let's not delay any further and don't keep His Majesty the King waiting for too long." Anduin opened the door. He didn't expect that behind this seemingly ordinary door would be a floating stone staircase leading directly to the castle.
The two of them walked into the stone well one after another. There were already four neatly dressed strong men waiting inside. From the aura coming from them, Ando Meiko sensed that the four of them were wearing special suits.
Back in the Theocracy, the only ones wearing special suits were the super army angels. This shows that the status of these four soldiers in the entire Star Kingdom is probably not low at all. Even if they are not one of the super soldiers, they are definitely the king's personal guards.
It seems that they attach great importance to this audience, but at the same time they also do not trust me at all.
Sitting on the stone stairs, Ando Meiko kept thinking in her mind that everything was ready and she just had to wait for something unexpected to happen.
Soon the floating stone platform constructed by magic stopped, and the vibration from beneath made everyone realize that they had reached their destination.
Hired by four soldiers who were suspected to be royal guards, Ando Meiko and Anduin got down from the stone platform. After opening the door and walking out, she discovered that the place they walked out of was actually a stone tower, and the stone platform leading to the underground laboratory was hidden inside it.
"What a generous move! There's even a passageway outside the palace gate for entry and exit. Could it be that they're worried about an intruder and that the research results inside can't be taken out?"
It took them a long time to walk across the stone bridge connecting the city wall and arrive at the palace in the middle of Feilong City Castle.
I can only say that it is worthy of being the strongest empire in the past. Compared with Lance, Potter and the Theocracy, the palace of Star is the most magnificent. Not only is it very grand, but also there are traces of ancient civilizations everywhere.
The four soldiers led the two men in silence until they came to the audience hall. Then they stood in pairs in front of the closed magnificent door, ready to go.
They didn't say a word, and Ando Meiko and the others naturally couldn't ask anything. They just stood there quietly waiting for the order from inside.
Because it was not the first time she met the emperor, although she could not say that she was familiar with him, at least she knew him well, so Ando Meiko's behavior was not disrespectful in front of others.
After a while, the order to meet with the audience came from inside the door. At the reminder of the four soldiers, Anten Yazi and Anduin both straightened their chests, looking as if they had been prepared for it.
As the magnificent gates were pushed open, the two men slowly walked in, half-knelt beneath the throne across half the audience hall, and bowed: "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. I wish you a long life and the prosperity of the Kingdom of Star."
"I, Anya, pay my respects to Your Majesty. I wish Your Majesty a long life and the prosperity of the Kingdom of Star."
The two of them said the greeting in unison. This was naturally taught to her by Anduin on the spot, and she only needed to say it along.
There was no such trouble when she met with the Church, so when Ando Meiko said it herself, she felt very awkward.
There were many people scattered around the audience hall, not only guards but also many nobles who stayed in various places in the palace to handle practical matters.
"Please stand up, both of you." The middle-aged man sitting on the throne, exuding a hint of majesty, said with satisfaction.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." The two men thanked him at the same time, then stood up respectfully at the same time and stood upright.
The middle-aged man glanced at Ando Meiko, and after seeing her beautiful face and body that was no different from that of a human, his eyes softened slightly.
Turning his gaze to Anduin, the king continued, "Anduin, I heard your experiment was successful. Is this girl named Anya the saint you so-called?"
The title of Saint was just given to Ando Meiko by the people in the underground research institute, and it was not personally recognized by the emperor. However, perhaps because he heard this rumor, he thought of meeting them.
Anduin bowed slightly and said respectfully, "Yes, Your Majesty. She is the Saintess bestowed upon our nation of Star. With her presence, our research, which had been stagnant for nearly a decade, has taken a major leap forward."
"Very good." The king turned to look at Ando Meiko, who stood expressionless beside him, and said, "Saint, what abilities have you gained in this experiment? Why not show them to me?"
After hearing the king's words, all the nobles in the audience hall began to whisper to each other, and there was an uproar one after another, but no one spoke loudly.
The title of Saint was originally established by the underground research institute and had no real authority, but if this sentence came from the king's mouth, even if it was just a joke, the meaning would be completely different. It meant that His Majesty the King personally recognized Ando Meiko's status as a Saint.
Therefore, not only the nobles, but even the prime ministers and generals standing on the left and right sides of the throne clearly showed very different expressions. However, they were still calm because of their high positions and power, and were not as unbearable as the nobles around them.
With this relationship, no matter how unwilling others are to acknowledge Ando Meiko's identity as an outsider, they will have to call her "Saint Lady" when they meet her in the future.
"I don't dare to be called a saint. I'm just one of the lucky ones among millions. Since Your Majesty wants to see you, I will show my ugliness."
She first bowed respectfully and politely refused her status as a saint, and then acted modestly. This series of actions won unanimous praise from most of the nobles.
After saying this, he moved his mind, and his eyes, which had closed and opened again, transformed into golden vertical pupils, and the scarlet dragon horns, dragon tail, and dragon scales appeared directly in front of everyone.
The hands hanging by her sides turned into the shape of dragon claws, revealing the noble aura of the dragon clan. At this moment, Ando Meiko was simply a real dragon in human form.
Volume 7: A Strange Journey to Another World: Chapter 170: Telephone Contact
Sensing this sudden change, the guards immediately drew their swords and rushed forward, surrounding Ando Meiko with their backs to the king, their half-exposed faces full of caution and hostility.
The general standing on the right also subconsciously drew the sword from his waist, stretched out his left hand to protect the king behind him, and also looked at the girl who had completely changed her appearance with hostility.
"Enough, retreat." As the king gave the order calmly, the soldiers put away their weapons and slowly returned to their original positions. Only the general still held his weapon cautiously.
"You should put away your weapon too. I asked her to show it. Don't be too nervous." The general's status was obviously not comparable to those people below. The king stood up and patted him on the shoulder. This action moved the general with a firm look in his eyes.
"Yes." The general put away his weapon, saluted respectfully, and then returned it to its place. However, his hand was still on the hilt, and he showed no intention of putting it down.
"Your Majesty, as you can see, this is what I have gained in these days." Ando Meiko, who had transformed into the appearance of a dragon girl, half-knelt down and said.
"Very good, Anduin. Your experiment has indeed achieved a huge breakthrough. If we continue to develop at this rate, our Star Nation will surely return to its peak, surpassing all superpowers and even the demons."
The king laughed excitedly, and the nobles below, seeing an opportunity, all began to flatter him, saying congratulations and words like "restoring the country's prestige."
It can be seen that the rapid progress of this experiment is of great significance to them. However, it is indeed so. After all, this is a research that has been prepared for decades, and the ultimate goal is to allow humans to obtain the power and even lifespan of the dragon race.
Who doesn't want great power? Who doesn't want a long life? Especially those in high positions of power, their desire for this desire borders on obsession.
So after seeing the changes that happened to Ando Meiko, his face was filled with completely uncontrollable ecstasy, and his eyes were filled with the enthusiasm of an upcoming new life.
However, at this moment the ground trembled, and the sudden earthquake caused the entire castle to shake violently. The king, who had just stood up, stumbled and fell back onto the throne.
While everyone was wondering what had happened, no one noticed that Meiko Anten, who had returned to her original body, had a faint smile on her lips.
"Report! Your Majesty, a lot of dragons have arrived outside the city and are about to attack us. What should we do now?"
This sentence in the report reminded her of last night. When she had given up thinking and was about to go to sleep, she suddenly thought of a solution.
She took out the black scale that had been hidden in the storage space for a long time and had not been moved. It was given to her by the black dragon she met by chance when she was in Lance.
She tried it, and followed the breath connected to the black dragon through the fallen reverse scale, imagining it as a telephone line in her mind. Not surprisingly, she was able to connect with the black dragon and have a conversation.
While Black Dragon was still in shock, An Teng Meizi had already revealed her identity: "Black Dragon, do you remember? I am the human you met in Lance Country."
"I remember, of course I remember. I wonder if you want to visit my dragon clan? Do you need me to pick you up?"
"We'll talk about other things later. I have something to ask you. Has your Black Dragon Clan ever lost a young dragon in the past ten years?"
"Young dragon? Although we dragons will go out to gain experience after reaching adulthood, those who haven't returned... Oh, come on, there really is one. What happened? Did you discover it?"
"Yes, but it's already dead, and its body has been dismembered and used as an experimental subject."
Suddenly, an extremely violent and strong aura was transmitted through the reverse scales, followed by the black dragon's angry roar: "Damn it, which blind bastard dared to touch my people?"
It seems that this news is far more stimulating to the dragon clan than Anten Meizi had imagined. She sighed in her heart and told it all the information about the underground laboratory in the Star Country and the information about the black dragon baby without hiding anything.
Unexpectedly, there was only a quick response from the other end, and the call ended.
Meiko Anten originally wanted to tell this information to the Dragon Clan. Not only would it allow the Dragon Clan to create chaos in the country of Sta so that she could take advantage of the situation, it would also allow her to do the Dragon Clan a favor. If there were any negotiations in the future, she would not be without any bargaining chips in her hands.
But she thought that it would take several days for the dragons to arrive, but she didn't expect that the message she had just conveyed last night would have arrived this morning. Their speed was much faster than she had imagined, or they valued their companions much more than she had imagined.
As the ruler of a country, he had seen all kinds of scenes. After hearing the news, he calmed down within a few seconds and said to the nobles in front of him, "Come out with me."
All the nobles looked embarrassed for a moment. Although they were afraid in their hearts, due to the king's order, they could only follow the king and leave together.
The king did not leave immediately. He first came to the treasury, opened it with a special key, entered, put on a complete set of epic suits, and took out the most precious legendary weapon.
After being fully armed, he immediately became more confident and set out from the city, leading a large group of people towards the main gate city wall. Naturally, An Teng Meizi was among them.
But when he stood on the city wall and looked down, he suddenly realized that he had never seen such a scene before.
Within a few miles in front of the main city gate, there were twenty-seven real dragons squatting, and dragons of eight colors: bright gray, green, dark blue, red, brown, cyan, black, and white, all of which existed here.
It is equivalent to all eight dragon clans sending out a part of their combat power. If an adult dragon is a ninth-level magical beast, then there are twenty-seven ninth-level magical beasts standing next to Feilong City at this moment.
After all, the Kingdom of Star is no longer the empire it once was. It is now just a superpower. Even if it has a super army like the Dragon Legion that can compete with the ninth-level monsters, there are now twenty-seven ninth-level monsters in front of it. How can a small Dragon Legion resist?
Seeing the king in an epic suit standing out, a huge black dragon also came out at this time, and opened his mouth without any hesitation and let out a dragon roar to intimidate.
Volume 7: A Strange Journey to Another World: Chapter 171: Do you want to treat us as fools?
Faced with such a large force from the dragon clan, the king did not dare to neglect it easily. He waited until the black dragon's voice gradually calmed down before he asked in confusion.
"Dear dragon friends, you have come from afar and are blocking the gate of my Feilong City. I wonder what you are doing here?" The king tried to slow down his tone as much as possible and spoke calmly to the black dragon in front of him.
There was no way. With their pomp and circumstance, they could easily destroy a country. Even if he was so high and mighty in the country of Sta, he would not dare to act rashly in the face of the dragon clan.
It is precisely because of this gap that the king is so eager to study the dragon bloodline, because he wants to obtain the power that can compete with the entire dragon clan.
But now he still underestimated the foundation accumulated by the dragon clan over tens of thousands of years. The reproduction of the dragon clan is extremely difficult but it does not mean that they cannot reproduce. No matter how difficult it is, a dragon can at least give birth to three or four children in thousands or tens of thousands of years.
Although the tone sounded euphemistic, the meaning was clear: Aren't you dragons neutral? What are you trying to do by bringing such a large group of dragons to my territory with such a fierce momentum?
"I heard that a member of my Black Dragon clan was captured by you while he was away training." The Black Dragon wasted no time and immediately stated the purpose of his trip. "Also, I received intelligence that you guys are secretly using our dragon bloodline to engage in some shameful activities. Do you think... is this true?"
"You, my friend from the Dragon Clan, are joking. We are not demons, how could we do such a thing?" The king said in a very firm tone, as if the word shame did not exist in his dictionary.
"Oh? Really? If not... then what about her?" The black dragon slowly stretched out its claws and pointed at the girl standing among the nobles. That girl was none other than Ando Meiko.
In an instant, a strong pressure fell on everyone, causing them to bend down at the same time, and this situation became particularly obvious on Meiko Ando.
I saw a look of pain on her face as she gritted her teeth and persevered. Soon she couldn't hold on any longer and whispered apologetically, "I'm sorry, I can't hold on any longer..."
All the suppression on her was lifted. Except for her body, all parts belonging to the dragon clan were instantly exposed to everyone and the dragon. An outward aura spread out, helping everyone on the city wall to quickly resist all the pressure from the black dragon.
"This newborn actually used the dragon's pressure to force out the part of its own species from Anya." The king thought to himself, his eyes becoming cold.
After Ando Meiko was exposed, he knew that many things could no longer be explained, but he still wanted to make one last effort to avoid conflict with the dragons here as much as possible.
"My friend from the Dragon Clan, you may not know this, but she's a baby we found on the roadside. She was born with both human and dragon blood. Perhaps she's the offspring of one of your clansmen and a human girl."
"Do you think it's possible? Your weak human bodies simply can't carry the blood of my dragon race. Okay, I won't waste my time talking to you cunning humans. Hand over my people."
"We don't have any of your people here, and what you said about using your dragon blood for experiments is pure fiction. We have been conducting mating experiments and research mainly on earth dragons. There must be someone who wants to use you to deal with us." The king continued to argue unyieldingly.
