Chapter 657
"Annie, do you know this person?" The magician who came with her looked at the person who spoke curiously.
Annie was flustered for a moment, but soon calmed down and smiled: "The name sounds familiar, maybe he is someone I have seen before. Can I ask what he looks like?"
Someone described the appearance of You Yuanjing, but Annie became more and more suspicious. Apart from the oriental appearance with black hair and black eyes, there was no other similarity. But what about the name?
When that man was in the Depu family, his name was Ivan, but his mother who died early also left him the name You Yuanjing. Anne always called him by this name and asked the servants to call him by this name as well, which was equivalent to excluding him from the Depu family. That's why she called him out in a tactless manner when she first heard this name.
Shouldn't he be in a small deserted village near the Dark Continent? That place was chosen by her specially for that man. According to her estimation, he would not be able to live long before becoming the prey of dark creatures and dying at their hands.
Maybe they just have the same name but not the same person. There are quite a lot of Oriental people from the Lost Continent after generations. Besides, that person has no chance of becoming a magician. You Yuanjing who appeared here is a junior fire magician, so they are definitely not the same person, Annie thought to herself.
She smiled and said, "Maybe it's a coincidence, we have the same name, but the person I know didn't have the talent of a magician back then." She would never say that she had a half-brother named You Yuanjing. She had erased all traces of this person's existence long ago.
"I see. Then let's not talk about others and just pick out what we need."
"Yes, yes." They came to exchange some magic items.
Although Annie seemed to have let it go, she still felt that You Yuanjing's appearance was unusual. After enduring it again and again, she finally asked in her mind: "System, is it possible that they are the same person?"
System: "Hasn't it been confirmed back then that your half-brother only has affinity with water magic? Moreover, water and fire don't coexist. If both elements exist at the same time, there is no way I wouldn't be able to discover it."
Annie: "But I'm still a little worried."
System: "Then the host should complete the tasks quickly. The more tasks you complete, the faster your strength will increase."
Anne pursed her lips and said, "Okay, but I still want to see Leo first."
Before traveling through time, Annie had just finished reading a novel with Leo as the protagonist. Although the hero is surrounded by beauties, he will eventually grow into the most powerful and only god in this world. So although Annie also got a system golden finger after traveling through time, her biggest dream is to hold the hero's golden thigh. She has worked hard on the tasks and has only now become a junior magician, and this is still relying on the system golden finger. If she relies entirely on her own practice, the speed will be much slower.
Because of this, her desire to hold on to the golden thigh became stronger and stronger. As long as she could hold on to this golden thigh, it would not be too difficult for her to become a magic saint or even a magic god, because the male protagonist had frequent adventures, all kinds of rare treasures, and was especially generous to the women around him.
The system understood the host's thoughts clearly and said, "Okay, then I will try my best to release tasks that allow you to encounter the male protagonist."
Annie became happy: "Thank you system."
Because she was so happy, she also forgot about the suspicious You Yuanjing. As long as she could hold the golden thigh of the male protagonist, even if that person might really be her half-brother, what did it matter? You know, the male protagonist is the most protective of his shortcomings. Who dares to touch a finger of the woman around him?
It would be even better if she had the chance to become his favorite woman. Unfortunately, Annie knew that this was just a delusion. Compared with the Holy Maiden of Light or the Elf Princess, her advantages were not obvious. Even her affinity with water magic elements was taken from You Yuanjing.
***
Yan Yuansen on the deserted island didn't know that Yuan Jing was coming towards him. Now his range of activities was getting larger and larger. He could crawl out of the cave to patrol his territory. However, just how to crawl on all fours gave him a headache. Every time he tried to control the body of this young dragon with his consciousness, he would always fall. Finally, he gave up control and let his body instinct drive him. Soon he was able to crawl around flexibly.
The young dragon's body was stronger than he thought, and he didn't get hurt despite stumbling around. The island wasn't very large, but it was covered with some vegetation, allowing him to find a few fruit trees that would become his future food source. He also collected some energy-containing plants.
It's a pity that the resources on the island are too scarce and the area is not very large. It doesn't take long to complete a tour, and then go back to the cave to eat and sleep. If it weren't for the fact that there are enough food, spiritual fruits and other cultivation resources in his storage ring, the possibility of this body growing up would be zero.
After consuming the energy he had eaten, Yan Yuansen climbed out of the cave again. Although his body was that of a young dragon and his mind was occasionally affected by that of a young dragon, he was still very rational in most cases. He knew clearly that this island was not safe. A deserted island did not mean that there would be no people or other creatures passing by that could pose a threat to him. Even a young dragon would be a great temptation to the magicians and swordsmen of this world.
So he buried traps in various places on the deserted island. With these traps, even if he fell into a deep sleep, he would be awakened from his sleep once danger came.
He did not tell Yuan Jing about these situations to avoid worrying him. Besides, he didn't even know where he was. Even if Yuan Jing could go out to sea to find him, how could he find him?
After setting up traps that were safe enough for him, Yan Yuansen talked with Yuan Jing for a while, then fell into a deep sleep after eating. His dragon body had grown more than five or six times larger than when he had just hatched, thanks to the large amount of energy-rich food he ate. The dragon body also has its own advantages, and it will not burst. While sleeping, the body will digest the energy on its own and allow the body to grow rapidly.
Yan Yuansen also had another worry, which was to what stage this body had to be cultivated before it could be transformed into a human form. He couldn't always appear in front of Yuan Jing in this image.
After sighing twice, Yan Yuansen buried his head and fell into deep sleep again.
Yan Yuansen, who was in a deep sleep, didn't know that a group of people were targeting him or the dragon egg and were trying every means to get to the deserted island.
On the coast, a blond man brought seven or eight people to inquire about the nearest ships going out to sea. After asking around, none of them found a destination that matched theirs. So these people found a place to sit down and rest, and discussed another way to go out to sea.
"Leo, is the information you got accurate? Don't all dragons live on Dragon Island now? In the past, there were dragon riders, but now there is not a single dragon to be seen on the mainland."
The handsome young man with blond hair was none other than Leo, the male protagonist that Annie had been eyeing. He was holding a piece of grass in his mouth, looking very cool and handsome. He smiled and said, "Don't worry, my information couldn't be wrong. The dragon egg was stolen by a magician. As you know, the dragon clan has always been very protective of their own people. No matter what the dragon egg is like, it is not allowed to fall into human hands, so the magician was hunted down by the dragon clan."
"The magician died at the hands of the dragons, but there was no dragon egg with him. The dragons gave up after chasing him for a while. The magician left a note and a map somewhere else, indicating the safe place where he placed the dragon egg. However, many years have passed, and perhaps the dragon egg has become a dead egg."
"Really? What about the map?"
Leo spat out the grass in his mouth and pointed at his head: "Of course I destroyed the map on the spot. It's not as safe as keeping it in your head. Don't you think so?"
"Hehe, Leo is right, Leo is right." How could the others dare to think of taking this map? Leo was a ruthless guy, and even if they joined forces, they might not be Leo's opponent.
"Since there are no ships going to the island, why don't we rent or buy a boat ourselves, and then ask a guide to lead the way for us." The situation in the sea can change suddenly, and people who are not familiar with the sea may end up with the ship destroyed and people killed if they rashly enter. They have heard a lot of such things, so when they came here, they would first inquire whether there is any ship heading in the same direction as their destination.
Leo stood up, patted his butt and said, "Just do as you said. First, see how to rent a boat. If that doesn't work, buy one. Then find an experienced guide. Don't save money on the guide."
"Okay, Leo, let's split up."
Five days later, Leo and his companions paid enough deposit, rented a boat and took a guide with them to go out to sea.
Not long after they set out to sea, Yuan Jing finally arrived at the beach. This was the coast closest to the island, and it was most convenient to go out to sea here.
Ever since leaving Campbeltown, he has been busy traveling. Except for practicing at night, he has not stopped. In fact, the scenery along the way is very nice. He has also seen other races besides humans, such as orcs and dwarves. If he was not in a hurry to travel, he would like to stop and get to know them more deeply.
The first thing he did when he arrived here was to look for a boat. As soon as he asked the first person, he found that someone else was also asking about a ship heading in the same direction. Yuan Jing's heart skipped a beat, wondering if that group of people were going after his lover.
Yuan Jing walked around the small seaside town and soon found out the information he wanted. The group had already gone out to sea, and the handsome blond young man leading them was called Leo. Yuan Jing quickly matched this man with the male protagonist of one of the plot lines. Needless to say, the male protagonist must have gone out to sea to hit on his lover, otherwise it would not be such a coincidence.
Yuan Jing was basically certain that his lover's identity this time was most likely a dragon, and a dragon that had just hatched not long ago, otherwise it would be impossible for the male protagonist to take such a big risk to go to that deserted island. No, he had to hurry, otherwise his lover might not be able to deal with these people.
Arriving at the seaside, Yuan Jing directly triggered a first-level wind magic levitation spell and flew out. He didn't care about being exposed and didn't want to borrow the boats here to go out to sea, as that would be too slow. When some people on the seaside discovered that he had flown out, they all screamed in surprise.
"It turns out to be a wind magician, but does this magician fly into the sea instead of taking a boat?"
"Maybe he is a very powerful wind magician, so he won't need a ship."
"It's a pity that I didn't say more to Mr. Magician just now."
Everyone was talking about it, and when Yuan Jing disappeared from everyone's sight, he took out the sea and air aircraft placed in the space, put the spirit stone on it, started it, and flew quickly to the destination.
When a warning trap was destroyed, Yan Yuansen, who was sleeping, immediately woke up and widened his eyes. There really was a stranger coming to his deserted island. Yes, he temporarily regarded this deserted island as his own territory.
He took out a mirror with his claws and blew a breath into it. After a ripple appeared in the mirror, the scene outside appeared. After changing several locations, several figures finally appeared in the mirror, and behind them was a ship.
Because of their different cultivation systems, this group of people failed to detect the warning traps set by Yan Yuansen. They drifted on the sea for several days and encountered a storm. If it weren't for the guide, they might not have arrived here.
Yan Yuansen looked at the group of people in the mirror warily. He had a strong premonition that this group of people, especially the blond boy in the middle, were coming for him. He didn't know how his existence was exposed, but since they dared to come, he had to be mentally prepared to leave his life here. Even if he was a young dragon that was born not long ago, he could kill these people who coveted him.
The young dragon's body instinctively made him start sharpening his claws, ready to kill the enemy.
Yuan Jing didn't expect that, perhaps because of the hero's luck, that group of people actually arrived at the deserted island before him and encountered almost no twists and turns along the way, while he encountered storms and obstacles from sea beasts. If his modified body had not been strong enough and the aircraft had not been sturdy enough, he might have capsized halfway.
When he saw a ship docked at the island in the distance, his whole aura became gloomy, which was somewhat similar to the aura of the vampire who died in his hands.
There was a murderous look in Yuan Jing's eyes. He put away his aircraft and flew towards the island. He pasted a concealing talisman on his body to hide his figure. He did not contact his lover so as not to be distracted when fighting the enemy. At this moment, there was an explosion on the island, which made Yuan Jing's expression look much better.
Even though his lover is physically restrained at the moment, it does not mean that he has no means to fight the enemy. Ever since he got the storage ring bound to his soul, in order to avoid accidents, Yuan Jing would always stuff as many items as possible into his lover's space to ensure that he could deal with any situation.
Yuan Jing rushed over quickly, but the group of people who had broken into the island were so shocked that they were about to curse.
"Leo, how could there be a trap on this island? Could it be that this island has been occupied by someone long ago, and the dragon egg has also been taken away by someone else?"
Leo was also unhappy. He didn't want the dragon egg to fall into the hands of others. If he got the dragon egg, whether he ate it directly or refined it into a magic potion, it would greatly improve his physique. Among all the creatures in this world, which one's body can compare to the strength of the dragon race? It can also improve elemental affinity.
"Be careful. There are only traps here and no one appears. It is very likely that the person is not on the island. Let's continue to explore and see if the dragon egg is still there."
"Yes, we can't come here for nothing. Even if the dragon egg is gone, the guy who took it away might have left something on the island." It would be good to get some property, but of course the dragon egg is more attractive to them.
The cave where Yan Yuansen was located was hidden by his formation. It was impossible to see through it without a certain level of strength, so Yan Yuansen did not leave. He held the mirror in the cave to control the trap outside. If he couldn't blow those guys to death, he could at least make them look humiliated.
The explosion here was great, and Leo and his group were indeed covered in dust, and two of them were killed. Yuan Jing flew over there, but he did not confront these people head-on, but contacted his lover: "I'm here, hiding my body, you open the formation and let me in."
"Fuck!" Yan Yuansen was enjoying the scene, but the words he heard suddenly made his hands holding the mirror tremble. The mirror almost fell out. He quickly grabbed the mirror and asked, "Are you really here? Yuan Jing, how did you find this place?"
"Xiao Wu is awesome. Not only did he give me a complete map, he also marked your location."
"Oh, oh, I'll open it for you, but I..."
Yuan Jing heard the discomfort in his voice and chuckled, "Are you wearing the body of a newly hatched baby dragon?"
"You already know this." Never mind. Yan Yuansen just gave up. There was nothing to be ashamed of. Being supported by your lover was better than being supported by others. "Come in."
As soon as the formation was opened, footsteps were heard. Yan Yuansen hurriedly looked down at his appearance. Even as a young dragon, he had to appear in the best image. Fortunately, he was usually very clean. The sleeping nest he had moved out of the space was also one he liked to move. He also liked to clean himself, and his claws were sharp and shiny.
Then when he looked up again, he met Yuan Jing's smiling eyes, and Yan Yuansen almost buried himself again.
Yuan Jing held back his laughter and walked over, holding the young dragon in his arms and taking the mirror with him: "Let's stop talking nonsense and leave here first."
This made Yan Yuansen feel less uncomfortable: "Okay, we'll be there soon, but we have to teach them a lesson before we leave. They're here for me."
"Okay, watch me."
So before leaving, Yuan Jing did not erase all traces of the young dragon's life in the cave, but still kept them, so as to confuse the male protagonist and his group. Then he set the last trap in the cave, combining formations and disposable explosive items together. Even if the male protagonist could escape with his life by chance, he would not be able to survive safely.
After leaving the cave, Yuan Jing did not leave the island for the time being, but found a safe place to stay and wait for the final result. Of course, Yuan Jing would requisition the boat near the island and would not leave it to the male protagonist.
Yan Yuansen's claws clung tightly to Yuan Jing's shoulders, and he turned his head to look in the direction of the explosion. Although he was completely black, he looked very cute in Yuan Jing's eyes. He didn't expect to see such a lovely side of his lover again. He had to treasure it well. By the way, he would take more photos and videos later.
At this time, Leo and his party were still struggling to break through the traps, because these traps were completely different from those they had seen before. Instead, they believed that these were not set by human magicians but most likely by dragons. Perhaps the dragons came here to set traps to protect the dragon eggs, so there would be a great harvest after passing these traps. This made them still high-spirited even after two of them died.
