Chapter 72: Section 72 - Intentions

The potential energy gradually diminished, and the twelve fierce whooshing blades plunged into the grass next to the main runway of Aircrew Base 911. A Psychic Illusion Dragon clad in snow-white scales and a Metallic Digital Dragon with numerous sharp-bladed wings descended from the sky, followed by the fourth-generation "Sky Falcon" with its four Wind Series Elemental Pulse Wings, all landing in succession on the tarmac. While Cangqiong Star did not repel the technological civilization of Blue Star and even saw an increasing variety and quantity of technological products among its various intelligent species, Cangqiong Star still maintained its own civilization development mainstream and had not fully embraced Blue Star technology, nor had it abandoned its advantages in magic and Battle Qi. In fact, on the side of Blue Star, the number of magic artifacts was also greatly increasing, and the application of magic was becoming more widespread, which, to some extent, contributed to the advancement of technological development. In the continuous exchange and trade between the two realms, the civilizational systems of both would tend to converge indefinitely yet always maintain their unique characteristics due to distance and historical culture. Civilizational integration is always measured in millennia; likely, the ruling classes of both planets were well aware of this and knew that there was only one way to accelerate this process. War! Thirty years after a great war among the Three Realms ended, nobody wanted to fight anymore. Even the Neanderthal Remnants, now integrated into both realms, were unwilling. The Supreme Council was destroyed and the Twelve Overlord Tribes had vanished. Peace was hard-earned. Wasn't it good enough to live well without returning to a resource-exhausted, desolate Primordial Realm? The proud Psychic Illusion Dragon raised its chin, looking down at the humans on the ground, as a wave of spiritual power swept across the entire base. Almost everyone's mind heard the voice of a young woman. "I am Clodia from Cangqiong Star's Dragon Race in Sky Dragon City!" Then it tilted its head toward the female Metallic Dragon next to it, saying, "Yilan, introduce yourself." Even though they had collectively evolved into digital dragons, the Metallic Dragon Race was still insusceptible to psychic power and naturally could not receive the message carried by the psychic power wave. "I am Yilan, a Metallic Dragon, thirty years old, currently a high school senior, and without a Dragon Knight!" The female Metallic Dragon had also evolved metallic membranes and, using magnetic vibrations, amplified her own voice three to four times, clearly audible throughout the entire Aircrew Base. High school junior, huh! The "roar" of the dragon caused the gathered crowd to wide-eyed and tongue-tied, unexpectedly bringing a sense of amusement. But why did the phrase "Dragon Knight" sound so much like "boyfriend"? The fans felt like their worldviews were being refreshed. After the "Halo" Dimensional Gate connected the two realms, not only did the Human Race of Cangqiong Star learn quite a bit from Blue Star, but many intelligent species, including the Dragon Race, also progressed with the times. Kindergarten, elementary, middle, and university levels of education were all available, and even academic degrees were mutually recognized. "Of course, we're ready!" Hanna Gagel nodded, feeling an inexplicable nervousness building inside. The inevitable was bound to happen, and there was no escaping it. She could only hope that this time it would pass safely. HR manager Takar squeezed through and asked anxiously, "Wait, Manager Hanna, what are we starting?" There seemed to be some understanding between the Giant Dragon and the executive manager that unnerved him greatly. If something significant were to occur, why not inform everyone in advance? This sudden development left no room for mental preparation and was bound to cause overthinking. Not just him—many within Aircrew Base also showed unease on their faces. Chen Fei heard the deputy squadron leader of the "Genuine Fragrance" squad, "Devil Pepper" Irinei Rusios, whisper in his ear, "It looks like trouble is coming!" Whether it was that one-eyed old woman or the higher-ups at Apocalypse Defense, something was clearly being concealed, which was annoying. The short-haired girl felt for the first time that the nickname Big Bear had given to the new executive manager was quite apt. "Are they going to use us as a sacrifice?" The naive Chen Fei blurted out. He couldn't understand what else at Aircrew Base 911 could possibly attract the visit of the Dragon Race. This damned place really was cursed! "Don't talk nonsense!" Chekhov also felt a pang of alarm. A rookie is a bird, and a crow is also a bird, but he hoped these two birds weren't any kind of relatives. All these damned capitalists should be dragged out and shot! "Everyone, please rest assured, this is an investigation, and it's no different from the psychological counseling session we had not long ago." As for the real reason, Hanna Gagel still did not want to give away the slightest hint. In the world, no wall is impenetrable; the more people who know, the greater the risk of information leakage, which could cause unnecessary trouble for the Apocalypse Defense Group. The Apocalypse Defense Group hadn't obtained the Heart Core of the Metallic Dragons' Bit, nor even seen a shadow of the Heart Core Fragment. The Dragon Race was also concerned about this matter, even more eager than anyone to recover the core that held the Dragon Soul, and would even disregard other remnants. -
