Then, Little Dragon Girl really understood. She seemed to be holding her breath, and the next moment, the little horn on her head slowly rose a few millimeters higher.
"This doesn't seem like a talent possessed by a normal race. A non-mollusk can control its body at will..." The old Demon Emperor slowly closed his eyes, and the next moment, he said, "Are you sure this little dragon girl isn't your daughter? Her abilities... how come they're so much like your fantasy manifestations?"
The old demon emperor's words left Xue Lude speechless. Indeed, when he saw this, he wondered if she also had the ability to materialize illusions.
So Xue's Law tried to conduct an experiment: "Can you turn your pupils into golden eyes?"
Little Dragon Girl tilted her head, seemingly unable to understand the meaning of the word.
Xue Lude tried to conjure a piece of gold in his hand, pointed at the gold and said, "The pupils will turn this color."
The next moment, the little dragon girl's pupils turned pure gold.
"It glows, like a flame is burning."
The golden eyes emitted a light that flickered like flames.
“A hideous lion appeared in his pupils.”
Then, in Xiaolongniang's pupils appeared the image of the lion lady whom Xue Lude had previously rescued.
"If this lion doesn't decline, it will become an even more declining lion, like this." Xue Luding drew an extremely unfortunate lion on the paper, and then Xiaolongniang looked at the simple drawing, and her pupils also became that extremely unfortunate lion.
On the scene, Xiaolongniang's pupils seemed to be eternally golden eyes, radiating a captivating light. No one dared to meet her gaze, because as soon as they did, they felt as if the high beams were shining directly into their faces, almost blinding them. And within her pupils was a hideous lion.
Xue Dinglu turned off the lights, and the next moment, in the darkness, Xiaolongniang's two big eyes shone with a golden light, just like two searchlights, accompanied by the special effect of flickering flames.
Xue Law: "..."
The Old Demon Emperor: "..."
"Are you playing some kind of trick I don't understand again?" the old Demon Emperor said.
"I was just testing her abilities..." Xue Dinglu turned on the light, pointed to the bread-man knight in the distance whose legs were almost completely devoured by them, and said, "Can you conjure up the baguette spear from that thing?"
Little Dragon Girl began to ponder. The next moment, a baguette, shrunk to the same size as the Breadman Knight, slowly appeared in her hand. The small baguette gradually grew longer until it was more than a meter long.
She excitedly raised her baguette and pointed it at the bread knight, making a strange "Wow!" sound as she rushed over and slammed her baguette hard against the bread knight's baguette, sending flour flying everywhere.
Breadman Knight: "..."
After the experiment, Xue Luding said directly: "Indeed, her ability is similar to the materialization of fantasy, or rather, it is an ability of the same kind and origin as the materialization of fantasy. It is the same as the transformation of the magic power in her body into the product of fantasy. The principle is the conversion of mass and energy."
"Then she really isn't your daughter?" the old Demon Emperor continued to complain.
"No, I'm only Legendary. Where would I get a daughter who's already Mythical at eight months old? If I really had a Mythical daughter, I'd probably beat you to a pulp, instead of wearing you down after a long fight." Xue Dinglu directly shut down the old Demon Emperor's nonsense with the most impolite words.
The old Demon Emperor was speechless. Even his most persuasive power couldn't win against Xue's Law, so he could only sullenly open his phone.
Xue Dinglu looked at the innocent and naive Little Dragon Girl and closed his eyes.
What exactly is this little one's identity? Like Fafnir, she was born with the Mythic level, but while Fafnir automatically became Mythic as she grew older, she seems to have had this power since birth.
Similarly, she also possesses the same ability as the illusion materialization... No, then she might not be a dragon at all, but something else entirely. It's just that she was born surrounded by dragons, so she materialized her basic image into a dragon-person...
Could she also be a new individual born from a fragment of the King?
Xue Dinglu didn't know, because logically speaking, since the Blood of the Cursed had touched the Evil Eye, if they were both fragments of the Venerable King, he should have been able to discover the child's true identity through the Blood of the Cursed.
But now, Xue Law knows nothing about her identity, and it seems that she came after Xue Law, rather than by chance.
He rubbed his temples, also wondering how Olivia's infiltration plan was going. Had she successfully infiltrated the dragon clan? If so, it would be best to give her some information.
……
"Commander-in-Chief, you've worked hard today. This is the dinner we prepared." When Xue Luding had nothing else to do, Bai Ya handed him a plate of food: bread, smoked meat, and a plant that Xue Luding didn't recognize, as well as some kind of tea made with purified water from an unknown plant.
"Okay, thank you." Xue Dinglu didn't stand on ceremony and started eating. To be honest, the taste was not bad. In this resource-scarce area, having such a dinner was probably one of their few remaining food supplies.
Seeing Xue Dinglu's actions, the little girl finally seemed to smile, no longer looking shy as before.
"Have all the people here received an education?" Xue Dinglu asked this question.
He was convinced that everyone in this world was educated, at least with basic cultural education. Otherwise, people wouldn't all spout such melancholic and pretentious sentences like "the land of suffering," "the meaning of life," and "why birds fly," as if they were literary figures, even if it was just nonsense literature.
However, even nonsensical literature requires a certain cultural foundation; at the very least, one needs to be at the level of a "chuunibyou" (a Japanese term for someone with delusions of grandeur) to reach this level.
If you put this in the world of the Old Demon Emperor, the people in that world, let alone being cultured, would describe stars as "glowing fruits" and satellites as "white fruits." All they do is kill, kill, kill, and fry, fry, fry. The moment they open their mouths, they exude an air of illiteracy.
Just like how the old Demon Emperor was already the most cultured person in their world, Xue Law still felt that he was illiterate.
"Great Commander, actually... the dragon descendants from heaven descend to the mortal realm every now and then to open schools and teach us to read. At the same time, they bring us a batch of supplies..." Bai Ya said something that made Xue Dinglu pause in surprise.
"Wait a minute, the dragonborn will help you? They're even this generous to refugees like you?" Xue Dinglu had previously thought that the dragons were simply colonists and farmers tending to their crops, but he never expected that they would open classes and provide supplies.
"Then why wasn't it in the intelligence you gave me?" Xue Dinglu asked.
"No, no, no, Your Majesty, yes, it's here..." Bai Ya frantically pulled out the papers recording myths and legends, which read, "The Dragon God's messenger will spread the gospel to the mortal realm..."
Xue Law: "..."
Because it was written so vaguely, he simply assumed it was a regular record of mythology.
"How long until the Dragon God's messenger descends to the mortal realm?" Xue Dinglu asked immediately.
He had already planned to knock the dragon envoy's head off, then drag the dragon to a secret chamber where no one could find it, and then "hope that the dragonborn lord is a wise man who knows when to yield."
“They…they usually arrive in the coldest winter, just these past few days. When the meteors first appeared in the sky, we thought it was the Dragonborn descending, so we all rushed over…but this year’s Dragonborn is actually this kind of child…” White Raven secretly glanced at the little dragon girl dueling with the Bread Knight.
Even Little Dragon Girl was stabbed in the stomach by the Bread Knight's baguette after only a few punches and kicks, and fell to the ground whimpering. Then she began to imitate the Bread Knight and conjure up a pancake-shaped shield for defense.
What will the Dragonborn teach you?
"History, culture, the rise and fall of civilizations, and many sad and tragic little stories..." the girl recalled, "The first story that impressed me the most was about a giant dragon raising a banner of rebellion to the sky, but it failed and ultimately could do nothing."
"There's another story, about an abandoned tribe returning home, but the protagonist of that tribe died on his way home and never found the address of his hometown."
Xue Law: "..."
Good heavens, now he understands where all this pretentious "literary youth syndrome" comes from. It turns out that the Dragon Clan's culture is all about these sad little stories, which is why the Dragon Clan produces so many artistic young men and women, thus filling the whole world with this enigmatic "literary youth syndrome."
Xue Lude suddenly became curious about the dragons in this world. Were they really descendants of dinosaurs? And were they searching for Earth's coordinates?
"The dragons will stay with us for anywhere from a few days to several dozen days. They will also leave us plenty of food, enough to get us through the winter. We just need to work hard to harvest some food next spring, and we can get by..." she said.
From this perspective, the dragon race doesn't seem as bad as we imagined?
At this moment, the old Demon Emperor's eyes lit up when he saw the system by which the dragons managed the lower realms.
Yes, why didn't he think of such a simple method? This way, he could both teach the people below a certain level of culture and at the same time bestow favors upon the lower classes. Why didn't he think of this system?
This is actually closer to the missionary culture of medieval Europe, a stage that the Old Demon Emperor's world has not yet reached.
But at this moment, looking at this race that was cultured but struggling in the harsh nuclear winter, the old Demon Emperor felt as if his DNA had been stirred.
"Xue's Law, I want to lead them," the old Demon Emperor said. "I want to see if my latest system can create a peaceful nation and civilization. I want to try it on this land, especially in such a suffering world."
Xue Law: “?”
Chapter 229 Farming Creates a Bright and Prosperous World
The old Demon Emperor wants to become the king of this world.
He wasn't after power or to conquer anything; he simply wanted to write something after reading the Qin Dynasty, the Han Dynasty, the Three Kingdoms, the Magic Book of Jin, the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, as well as various histories of Britain, Rome, Greece and America.
He had never felt such an urge to act; he had to continue carrying out his plan. He wanted to give the suffering world a great coup, and he wanted to create a peaceful empire that would last for a thousand or ten thousand years.
A country where there is no more war, no more chaos, and everyone can live in peace and tranquility.
However, he also lacked confidence. The old Demon Emperor realized that most of the reason for his previous failures was the excessive leaps in the system. He had essentially jumped their world directly from a primitive tribe to a feudal civilization.
How can people who have grown up in primitive tribes and are used to the survival of the fittest adapt to a society based on order?
Therefore, their counterattack is inevitable. Of course, if they can withstand several waves of counterattacks and continue for several generations, more and more people will naturally adapt to the new era.
This is a achievable future, provided his system is sound.
So now, he wants to find a place to "pilot" his system and see if it is realistic. And the biggest advantage right now is that he has an "intelligent" alien by his side.
Although Xue Dinglu always calls himself a stupid college student and says that he is just an average person in his local area, his wisdom is already at the level of a "prophet" in his own world.
He even saw many stories about "traveling to another world" on Blue Star, which piqued his interest. When he returned home, he could find some stupid college students on Blue Star who were willing to "travel to another world." He didn't have high requirements; they just needed to be on par with Lao Xue and become his advisors.
Even the cunning advisors he found were able to cultivate even more cultured individuals!
He had to admit he had some amazing wisdom.
But his first step was to establish himself in the world and begin piloting his own system and culture.
"I want to conquer this continent, and then lead these suffering people to conquer this land of suffering, and establish my own eternal and peaceful heavenly kingdom!" The old Demon Emperor told Xue Luding his dream.
Xue Law: “?”
"Especially on this land of suffering, conquering nature, building my city-state and empire from scratch, this time I will learn from the lessons of history, build a perfect system, and the steps for its development and reform..." He looked out at the vast white snowfield.
He closed his eyes, his mind filled with the literary and artistic language spoken by the numb patients Xue Law had treated before. He loved these cultured people so much that he would laugh in his dreams if all the war fanatics in his world were replaced by these literary youths.
Cultured, peace-loving, and desiring a happy and prosperous future, a warm home and country, and most importantly, they dislike war. The hardships of life and constant pollution have weighed them down, and all they want is to live peacefully on this frozen land.
Isn't this the kind of people I love most?
So don't be afraid, the President is here!
Xue Law: "..."
The old Demon Emperor grew increasingly excited as he thought about it. He began to dream of establishing a brand new empire in this world, and even taking the first step towards achieving eternal peace and tranquility here.
He just loves the thrill of farming. Anyone who disturbs his farming and development will be killed. He wants to cultivate a bright and peaceful world and create a prosperous era.
He planted everything! He planted like crazy!
"Xue Law, I know that your world has plants that can thrive even in sub-zero frozen soil. Give me that thing! It would be best if it also had some radiation resistance and radiation absorption functions. My farming needs to be accelerated!" The old Demon Emperor seemed to be extremely excited at this moment. He even kept poking his temple with his index finger.
Xue Law: "..."
Go ahead and stir things up, do whatever you want. This world is already bad enough, and no matter how much you stir it up, it won't get any worse. Besides, if you really want to stay in this world...
Xue looked at the sky. The heavy snow and howling winds showed no signs of stopping. In this world where just surviving was a struggle, this old man might actually be able to bring a different kind of scenery to the world.
……
So the next day, as Xue Dinglu continued to treat the remaining people, a four-meter-tall man named "Deputy Commander" appeared in everyone's sight.
He was shrouded in a black robe and called himself the "Demon Emperor," the one who was going to lead them all to build a new home on this ruin.
At first, no one cared. They were just relieved that the leader was still willing to lead them. Now that Obsidian, the original leader of the refugees, was completely on Xue Dinglu's side, no one objected.
Furthermore, since the deputy commander is a friend of the president, will they also have a steady supply of bread and clean water from now on?
But soon, the deputy commander began his plan, and within just one day he had assigned everyone to different departments: those responsible for building houses, those responsible for fighting, those responsible for clearing frozen ground, those responsible for processing distilled water, and those responsible for overseeing all work.
All the arrangements were laid out in an orderly manner, which made everyone feel that something was unusual. And most importantly, he took out a food called "Dragon Blood Potato".
It's a plant that can grow in frozen soil.
Even the deputy commander taught all the fel sorcerers a unique spell called "Life-Generating"!
This is a modified version of Xue's Law in the world of fairy tales that promotes plant growth. The disadvantage is that this technique will greatly deplete the soil's fertility and energy, while requiring a large amount of water for irrigation 24 hours a day, and even requiring continuous carbon replenishment.
It involves piling up dead branches and leaves of various plants or any other carbon elements into the soil to accelerate growth, until, like old Watson, dozens of acres of vegetables and fruits are grown overnight. This is the result of the tireless work of everyone in Baiyin City.
Matter does not appear out of thin air; it must at least undergo material transformation or consume energy.
But this world, this land of suffering, possesses unimaginable wealth: "dragon blood" and "radiation energy."
This is all natural energy. In fact, these things are everywhere on this land. As long as the potatoes are continuously improved to adapt to the erosion of dragon blood and radiation, they will naturally transform this suffering land into fertile land without even needing composting.
After a day of research and development, the Old Demon King and the planting team developed Dragon Blood Potato version 24.0.
This version of the Dragon Blood Potato can absorb underground radiation and dragon blood as its own nutrients and energy, and its robust roots will continue to climb downwards until it absorbs more dragon blood and radiation.
This type of potato has a fruit as big as an adult's fist. It is dark red and has a rusty taste, but it is rich in sugar and hemoglobin, and its nutritional value is three times that of beef.
It is unknown who leaked the information, but other refugees have already begun to arrive at their camp. These refugees originally heard that there were doctors here who could cure evil, but the old demon king accepted them all and immediately joined the construction workforce.
They worked tirelessly to earn their medical treatment and food.
As Xue finished his day of surgeries and awaited a letter from his senior Olivia, his dinner was no longer bacon and tea, but freshly baked potatoes.
"Commander, we harvested a total of 8 tons of Dragonblood Potatoes today. This will sustain us for several months and be enough to get us through the winter. Also, after testing, we found that the evil energy on the land after the Dragonblood Potatoes are harvested is greatly reduced..." Obsidian reported the old demon king's work for the day to Xue Luding.
Although Xue Daolu didn't care what the old devil had done, she seemed to care a lot and tried to report everything that the old man had done that day.
She seemed to be keeping her original vow, forever becoming a sharp blade in Xue's hands.
“I understand. Also, let him be. I know what you’re worried about—a power struggle or something like that? But don’t worry, I have absolutely no intention of doing that. Besides, I might be leaving in a while.” Xue’s words silenced her. Then, the woman simply nodded slightly and respectfully left.
