Chapter 37 Chapter 37 (Xiao Xiu) The possibility of the future, I also...
Mr. Long could obviously see it at this moment - or when he understood that there was something different about Xiaolong, he kept observing, especially when Xiaolong encountered danger.
The lamb was startled for a moment.
But at this moment it didn't have time to ask Mr. Long why he could hear what it said.
It just anxiously jumped out of the little dragon's body, trying to use its own strength to help the little dragon maintain the status quo.
It also didn't quite understand why this plane had such a big flaw. It was like when it first found Xiaolong, it was obviously anxious, but it didn't have enough strength. Only the plane consciousness of this plane responded to it quickly, opened the door to entry, and this place was very suitable for Xiaolong's growth.
But how could this place develop into this in just a few years?
The plane assessment is clearly showing a steady improvement!
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, baby. There must be something wrong with my power, which is why there is such a big mistake. Woohoo, I must format and reinstall it when I get back, but I can't stay here anymore - I have to leave quickly -"
The small ball of light also tried to push the little dragon.
But Xiaolong raised his head stubbornly, completely motionless, and stared at Li Ming.
"Dad said he wouldn't lie to me. Dad said I am his little dragon."
Xiaolong pursed his lips at this moment. He didn't cry out loud, but tears fell.
"Dad lied to me this time, so I won't behave this time. This is where I belong."
In the past, he was best at retreating and keeping silent.
"Right here! Don't say things like that, Daddy!"
Xiaolong's dark eyes began to light up slowly.
Stubborn, unwilling to give in.
The complex patterns under the eyes are intertwined and interwoven.
The world around me seemed to slow down.
In fact, Li Mu always felt it was very strange.
In all his memories, he seemed to be praying—
What are you praying for?
This sentence originally belonged here, as if it was the fact, so he could say it so firmly.
'Have you found the answer, little one?'
The androgynous voice that had told him at five that it was too early sounded again, more fragile and unreal than before.
"It doesn't matter if you can't find it. You should have forgotten. I am the consciousness of this plane. The defects of this plane are difficult to change. For a cub, you have tried very hard."
This sound.
Xiaolong always felt that apart from that time, he had heard it a long time ago.
There is a clear difference between the dragons in the magical world and the dragons in the interstellar world.
The magical world uses magic, and the interstellar world uses mental power. These are superficial differences, but they have different structures.
The use of magic depends on a medium. All creatures that can use magic have magic crystals in their brains that are built up bit by bit as they learn magic. So even if Xiaolong wants to teach others magic, others will not be able to learn it.
Magic crystals often represent life to people in the magical world, and his purpose is to continuously strengthen his magic crystals and increase his power. Why does he have to do this?
Li Mu finally grasped something in his mind. At this moment, Xiaolong groaned in pain and fell forward. The golden magic crystal belonging to Xiaolong slowly emerged. With the magic crystal as the center, a huge magic circle unfolded. Then the magic crystal turned into nothingness golden fragments and floated towards the horizon, slowly repairing the world loopholes that could not be handled in this plane, dragging the balance bit by bit.
The lamb was stunned for a moment, then it realized something. The reason why it could easily bring the little dragon here was because the little dragon belonged here. Li Mu was sent to the magic world by the plane consciousness here. He had heard that the plane consciousness could restart or rebuild civilization. Under such plane defects, everything could be traced.
This is also the self-rescue of the small world. The lamb did not care about anything else and quickly closed the plane portal behind him. All the energy accumulated in the past few years was integrated into the golden magic circle.
The wind seems to have died down.
When the magic crystals were dissipating, Xiao Yang went to look at Li Mu's information again. Sure enough, in addition to the life experiences in the magic continent for a few years, there was another life experience before that.
"Mumu?"
The person who felt the changes in front of him and the changes in the black hole most directly was Li Ming.
The dragon transformed back into a human and reached out to catch the little dragon.
Xiaolong curled up his body, tried to look up at him, and then whimpered.
"Dad is lying! Uncle is lying too. Mu Mu, don't pay attention to Dad anymore."
The moment the magic crystal shattered, countless chaotic images surged through Xiaolong's mind. That was before he entered the magical world, before he was so focused on learning more magic. He belonged here. He had been Daddy's Xiaolong a long time ago. All his courage and hope were inherited from here and have never been interrupted.
He was a dragon egg abandoned by the once extinct dragon clan due to a defect. He was fully developed but unable to hatch, so he could only hibernate and quietly wait for the end of his life until one day he was discovered by the Silver Dragon Clan on an abandoned planet.
The dragon clan has not had any cubs for thousands of years. They tried to hatch dragon eggs using the method from long ago, but in the end they only awakened a trace of the spiritual power of the sleeping cubs.
The Silver Dragon Clan discovered that under the influence of completely uncontrollable black hole pollution, even dragon eggs with vitality could not hatch, but the weak and tender mental power within the dragon eggs could connect to the virtual network.
This may help him break out of his shell by growing his mental strength.
So at that time, a soft and curious dragon baby appeared in the Silver Dragon Clan's virtual network.
The baby dragons wandered around the various open-access Dragon Star Network virtual networks, hugged the symbols they typed, and rolled over, trying to take a bite of the various software on the Star Network.
He acts cute and coquettishly, and makes the busy and tired dragon uncles and aunts who are always on the edge of madness play with him. He also captures the spiritual forces scattered from the Tayir tribe as playmates, and when his spiritual force is resting, he also suppresses the spiritual force of others to rest.
The past before the magical world was completely different from the present. Although it was the same people, there were different dangers and different mental states.
At that time, the black hole continued to expand as the plane consciousness gave up, and was on the verge of doomsday.
It was like an extended version of these three years, long and torturous.
The little dragon egg, which has been forgotten for a thousand years and has been left alone in the dark, has just hatched a few years ago. It is tender, well-behaved, naughty and cute, and is carefully cared for by its parents. The father who picked it up and was the most hypocritical was also the little dragon's favorite. They found a rare bit of comfort in the despair of gritting their teeth and moving forward.
Until the entire universe is destroyed.
The dragon parents, who are on the verge of madness, try various ways to protect the dragon eggs and keep the dragons alive.
In the last world line, the dragon clan was destroyed. The little dragon, who was wrapped in the spiritual power of its parent dragon and its friends but was still slowly swallowed by the black hole, cried and accused them of deceiving it.
Then, after everything was destroyed, he encountered a plane consciousness that was already extremely weak and did not believe in evil and was ready to reopen a new interstellar plane to develop and make up for the defects.
"Little one? At the very end, is there still a living thing? It's a dragon. Although it is well protected, isn't it cruel to leave the cub until the end?"
All around was the sound of Xiaolong sobbing, but there was no answer.
The plane consciousness seemed to pause for a long time, and when Xiaolong gradually became unable to make a sound, he suddenly spoke.
"Although I can still initiate new civilizations, the flaws cannot be eliminated. I've entered a vicious cycle. Next time, not only will the universe develop, but I will also be destroyed. Baby, do you want to try another world? Maybe you can survive. I'll send you there. The remaining power should allow you to reach a beautiful world without flaws, which can also be regarded as compensation for my dereliction of duty."
"I'm not going to some beautiful world. Mumu wants her dad, her uncle, and Chichi... I just want the old days..."
Xiaolong sobbed weakly and confusedly. He was not strong enough and could not live alone like this.
"Mumu just wants everything back..."
The immature mental power was looming, and it was almost too late.
"There's another place—"
The world consciousness that was powerless at the end of its own world looked at the little dragon that belonged to its own world and no longer had the desire to develop a new civilization.
"There is another world with the same flaws. There, perhaps a solution to the flaws here can be found. My remaining power can temporarily reverse this world to the past, suppressing the progress of the flaws, compressing them to the final few years before they erupt, awaiting your return."
It can at least make their time more comfortable while they are struggling in pain.
However, if that happens and Xiaolong fails to return, any changed world, including it, will come to an end. It will have no other power to restart or start a new civilization, and these traces of its existence will only be destroyed.
"Dad, uncle, aunt and uncle, Chi Chi - will they all come back?"
'They will temporarily return to the time before the end of the world.'
The world consciousness gently lifted up the little cub.
"Even if it brings doomsday and destruction, their final days will be much easier than they are now. But baby, if you go to that equally flawed world, you might be rejected, hated, and scarred searching for those illusory answers. Your time is running out. There are no family, no friends, no world that loves you. You won't have the memories to keep you going, only a strong subconscious desire. In the end, you might even lose your way home. Even so, are you still determined to go?"
"Mumu wants to go," the weak little spirit said softly, "Dad said that as a dragon, we are not afraid of any difficulties. Mumu wants to go. Mumu is also a brave little dragon!"
"Then go ahead, but baby, if you can't find your way home in the end, that's okay. If you don't want to come back and want to live in that place, that's okay too."
Your family won't blame you.
"If possible, I hope your world will always be bright."
So, in the Light Dragon family of the Magic Continent, which also suffers from the problem of light and dark balance, a little black dragon with a strange color was born, which was ostracized by others.
He used a body that was not suitable for learning magic to continuously absorb knowledge and power, forging the magic crystal that truly symbolized courage into a sparkling one, and then he kept asking—
He didn't survive for long, three years in interstellar and five years in magic.
——He had been loved.
He was not asking for acceptance, nor did he hope to survive there forever.
He was just begging subconsciously - please, don't exceed the time limit, even if his family will be destroyed, please let him go home.
Until the little dragon died while trying to learn new magic, the lamb passing by hurriedly bound it and quietly watched the little dragon's plane consciousness open the door to return home.
The place where the silver dragon clan originally discovered the dragon egg was replaced by a pitiful little black dragon that had learned magic and created a sparkling magic crystal.
He is still - accepted by the world and by his family.
"Mechanical recovery—immediately engage in decontamination—"
"Ding—Over 200 dragons trapped in the black hole have been captured. Emergency plan: forced isolation, mental strength testing—mental strength values are dangerous, but not out of control. Injection of suppressant injections."
"Alert to the entire universe! The black hole is being gradually controlled. Members of all races, please cooperate and eliminate the black hole."
Dense alarm sounds followed one after another.
Deafening.
But in the extreme silence and cries of pain just now, such deafening sound was actually a good thing.
"Fuck, can you please stop dragging people along like that?"
Li Hua's angry voice came from behind Li Ming.
The mechanical claws plunged into the black hole in an instant. Amidst the continuous corrosion of the mechanical claws, they grabbed Li Hua, who was in pain and unable to move, and pulled him out.
The weapons used to suppress the black hole have already fired at it, and well-equipped tribesmen have rushed in to search for the central pollutant of the black hole.
Li Ming was in a trance and lowered his head in confusion.
The small ball of light floating in the air seemed to have exhausted its strength and fell into Xiaolong's body again.
The despair that hung over my head gradually dissipated.
"Dad is lying."
Xiaolong muttered.
Li Ming holds Xiaolong in his arms.
"Dad feels like he just had a dream."
I dreamed that a long time ago on the Star Network and the virtual network, there was an annoying yet cute little guy who, in an extremely depressing atmosphere, held a book, hugged his arm, and earnestly called him dad.
"Mumu, don't call me dad anymore."
The dragonet whimpered.
The old father, who had just made up his mind to send the baby away, suddenly panicked.
And Xiaolong grabbed his clothes tightly.
"I've cheated on Mumu several times!"
"How could I have lied to you so many times? ... Daddy was wrong, Daddy was wrong, admit it, okay?"
At this moment, the power of the magic crystal is dissipating, and the defects of the plane are being gradually made up due to the balance of the sacred light magic, and are pulled back into the range that the plane consciousness can control. The already exhausted plane consciousness begins to slowly enter a virtuous circle.
The interstellar despair of the past, and the little dragon's mental power that was protected until the end and gradually dissipated were slowly replaced and frozen by everything in front of him.
Make up this real world.
The world that was supposed to stagnate and be destroyed at this moment broke through this node and began to rush forward with the torrent of time.
"Li Ming!! What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and do it!"
"Boss!! There's news coming from the Tayir tribe, the one you said you needed to pay special attention to. Ask your cub! They're so anxious that they seem to be sending a starship directly over."
"Sir, the Red Dragon has already charged out. You're going to fall behind."
"Wait, wait, wasn't I just swallowed? What? Quarantine? I'll quarantine you if you want—hiss, okay, okay, quarantine me if you want, put the gun down."
The old father, who was busy wiping his son's tears, jumped up and down: "Wait a minute, can't you see I'm busy?!"
“You’re right—”
That gentle voice echoed in Xiaolong's ears again.
"You are a very brave little dragon."
Xiaolong lay in his father's arms.
There were tears on her eyelashes.
It’s not—
It was simply because his father, the Silver Dragon, held up the sky for him and taught him how to grow up, his uncles and aunts tried to protect him under them, his friends kept holding his hands and told him that he would not be alone, and the plane consciousness... gently sent him out and told him that it was okay, even if he didn't return to this shabby home, and then they all went towards their own endings.
So he's coming back.
He must come back.
He was begging at every moment, even if he couldn't, to please let him come back.
"dad--"
Xiaolong raised his head. The magic crystal had been constantly improving before it left his body. Now it was broken. Xiaolong could no longer use magic. The loss of the magic crystal made him sleepy and weak, but he just stubbornly held on to his breath.
"A stupid Holy Golden Dragon can't raise a little dragon as brave as me."
Li Ming stared at Xiaolong in a daze.
Look at him pointing here, pointing at him.
"Mumu has always belonged here. She has always been a little dragon of the Silver Dragon Clan. Daddy once said that no matter how hopeless you are, you must never give up hope and courage."
He has never changed.
"You're right."
Li Ming suddenly laughed.
"Dad is the stupid dragon, Mumu is the smart little dragon."
He stood up holding the cub and glanced at everyone around him, seeing that the eyes of these silver dragons were all on his cub.
He wasn't sure how many people had seen the images that kept flashing by.
But now is not the time to dwell on that.
"It's not okay to let children save the world. Adults have to be useful once in a while."
Mr. Long lowered his head and rubbed his face against Xiaolong.
"Wait a minute, baby, take a break. Let's have your favorite dinner roll for breakfast, okay?"
"Invite Chichi."
Xiaolong was still holding his little virtual bracelet.
Mr. Long was a little reluctant, but finally nodded.
"Invite your friends."
The lamb, who had fallen asleep again, gave a reminder: "The plane crisis has been resolved. The system has automatically dormant and replenished its power due to exhaustion. The progress bar of the care plan for the cubs has reached 90%. Please live well, cub. See you in the future."
'Thank you, little lamb.'
Xiaolong finally smiled, with tears in his eyes. He reached out and hugged his father's face, half closed his eyes, leaned on his father's shoulder, and was about to fall asleep.
Speak softly.
"Don't always think about giving Mumu future possibilities. Mumu also wants to give you all the possibilities of the future."
