Lonely child.

Perhaps only Chen Guoxun in this world would describe Niedhog, the emperor at the top of the food chain who was respected by all creatures.

Is it a lonely child? Of course it is.

In that ancient era, the new dragon clan had not yet been born. The old dragon clan had just passed through the gate of the Nibelung root of the Arctic Ocean and came to this vast world, looking up at the brilliant starry sky for the first time.

It was an era full of light, everyone was hopeful, everyone was brave and proud, except for the child named Niedhog, because his mother died very early.

"Mother?" Xiziyue was stunned.

"The oldest dragon clans all have mothers, except the supreme. It was not until Niedhog ascended the throne that the concept of mother disappeared from the dragon clans' worldview." Chen Guoxun said in a gentle voice, like the long river

It flows like that.

Since there was no mother, the child named Niedhog had never been hugged since the moment he was born, so he was born with a serious sense of security, never smiled at any of his kind, fearing that everything would hurt him

thing.

But fate came to him. He was selected by the Presbyterian Church into a great plan. After passing this plan, he would become the new master of the world.

Without his own consent, he was forcibly helped to the throne that he did not want to ascend. The entire Presbyterian Church was also ascending to the throne with him. The consciousness of each elder was hosted in his brain.

It's like a spell.

Under the erosion of those spells, his body and character became less and less unto him. On the surface, he sat on the Iron Throne and roared at the whole world, but in fact he was curled up in a dark corner, looking at those

The shadow swayed around him, splitting into countless selfs.

Like the twins he once created, his own consciousness is also split into two, one is the black emperor who vows to avenge the whole world, and the other is the cowardly boy who is afraid of everything.

Finally one day, his body could no longer support the soul in his body and began to fall apart. From the outside, it seemed that the black emperor was killed by other things on his own steel throne, but in fact he could actually kill him.

It's only itself.

In that tsunami-like self-destruction, the elders who were originally parasitized on him were destroyed one by one, and only a few souls escaped by chance. They were like the surviving gods in the dusk of Ragnarok and would go to the south to build new ones in the future.

The country of

And Niedhog's original, whose powerful and angry personality had completely died, buried his bones in a place beyond the reach of the world, waiting for a day in the future to recover again.

But a long time passed, and the cowardly Niedhog opened his eyes again.

He returned to the world through the wasteland of death, sat on the top of the throne, and witnessed the collapse of the throne. Finally, what appeared before him was a strange world.

In this world, the dragon race is no longer the dominant world, and the number of human beings has become unprecedentedly numerous. Niedhog observed the people coming and going in the gaps in the streets, and it took him a long time to walk into the sun.

"In history, I have had countless opportunities to make the family rise, but I gave up all of them." Chen Guoxun stared indifferently at the distant history.

"Is it because of fear?" Xiziyue also stared at that period of history, watching the boy walking restrainedly on the street, as if everyone was his enemy.

"Anything, once it burns, will always be extinguished. If you want to survive, the best way is to never be discovered by others... Xiziyue, you should be able to understand it too, that kind

The sense of death is like putting it into a box, with only darkness and coldness around it." Chen Guoxun trembled slightly.

Xiziyue's eyes fell back to herself in the nutritional bottle: "I know that my birth has been through the eggs of the King of Ocean and Water, and I have experienced everything that the King of Dragon was reborn."

"This may be the advantage of the new dragon clan. After cutting off the connection with their mothers, they have the ability to cocoonize, which can continuously break through the lifespan limit, so they can tolerate that kind of darkness...

But it can't be done for me, ironic, because I am the founder of the New Dragon Clan, and I can't stand its price."

"What about power? You should be eager for it too." Xiziyue asked in a low voice.

"Yes, I also long for power, because it seems to be the only thing that will make me no longer afraid, so I have been nurturing excellent descendants and trying to contact the survivors of the Presbyterian Church in order to get back that

Lost power...but this is what power is like, attracting you to fight for it, and also judging you."

The cowardly Niedhog retreated. He had no courage to sit on the throne covered with thorns, but no matter what choice he made, the Twilight of Ragnarok will come desperately, and no one can escape.

The end of history.

"Later, I planned to escape, and I was going to the 'Eternal Land', which was the only way for me to pursue happiness."

"What is that?"

"The refuge in Ragnarok's dusk does not exist in reality, but only in a corner of the world tree, like a branch that has been grafted up... I value the Nibelon on the viaduct so much

The root, for this plan, I need a lot of time to build the eternal land.”

"Then have you succeeded?"

"It was successful. Before the disaster began, I moved into the eternal land with all my tribes. Except for you, no one else would find me... For example, you are talking to me like this,

This is your privilege.”

"Because of profile?" Xiziyue lowered her head.

Chen Guoxun nodded: "Profiles, and keys, they are actually the same ability... Destiny itself, this is also the most primitive ability of Niedhog... Yes, that cowardly child

From the beginning of his life, he had this power, and this was what he had in the first place.”

"Since you have decided to escape, why do you want to create me?" Xiziyue looked up and stared at the eyes under the thick lenses of the other party, "You never answered my question."

In the illusory light and shadow, Chen Guoxun's eyes appeared in a hint of dodging, and the hazy figure shuttled around the two, calmly with noisy.

The girl in the nutritional bottle also opened her eyes and looked at the man standing outside the glass curiously.

"Yes, why did I create you? I don't know the answer to this question. The only thing that is certain is that my cowardice and fear have indeed improved because of you... Why is this?" Chen Guoxun

Talking to yourself.

He himself didn't understand this, so why did he create this child?

He obviously has many children. Those children grew up in a warm mother's body and had rich and colorful personalities. They even called him father or father. But why did he grow up in a nutritional bottle and be watched by countless people?

Do children have a special liking?

Because she is the most perfect heir to bloodline?

Chen Guoxun was thinking about this question he had thought about for a long time, but he still had no answer now.

Suddenly, Xiziyue's hand reached in front of him, and her delicate five fingers looked like petals.

"Give me your hand." She sighed softly.

Chen Guoxun was stunned and then did it involuntarily.

For the first time in his life, he held the girl's hand, which was softer and smaller than he thought.

"Did you feel it?"

"So that's how it is." Chen Guoxun's eyes drooped slightly.

A familiar breath.

Or the aura similar to himself, the natural, fear that comes from birth, and the fragility that is so vigilant that he is not completely free of, no matter how much power he has gained.

"When I was still in school, the professor once told me that when I was infancy, the importance of parents' caress and love to children determines whether children will be brave or cowardly, cheerful or cringe-in the future... I don't feel it like you, just like you.

After all these, don’t say in an apology that you didn’t feel maternal love…you haven’t even given me fatherly love.”

The girl in the nutritional bottle also moved. She stretched her hand forward, touching the edge of the nutritional bottle, and a small mark was built up on the glass with her palms.

The staff of the entire laboratory stopped and watched the girl's every move.

Logically speaking, she is in this stage of development and should not be able to see anything, but can she still touch the outside world by instinct?

They didn't know that the girl was not invisible to see anything. In her vision, only the man's outline was clear. No matter how many times she opened her eyes, she saw that man.

She could clearly feel that the man was different from the others around her, such as observing her own eyes.

In the eyes of others, I am just a string of data, but in the eyes of this man, I am the real life.

Slowly, the man also put his hands over. Although there was a layer of glass, the hands of the two were indeed put together.

That was the closest time between the two.

So warm.

For the first time I felt like I was not afraid at all.

Is this the reason why he insisted on creating this girl? It's not for the world, but for himself.

Not for your own ambitions, but for protecting your weakness.

The handshake between the two ended quietly. Xiziyue took a few steps back and silently turned her back, as if she was about to leave.

"Xiziyue, will you hate me?" A blank reflection broke out on Chen Guoxun's lenses, "I hate me to bring you to this world."

"I won't hate you whether it's the past, present, or the future." Nishiziyue turned around, "No one will hate someone who is similar to him."

"Then will you forgive me?"

"No, because the whole world is facing a crisis, but you left the vast majority of people and fled to an absolutely safe place by yourself." Xiziyue paused, "But I won't blame you, either,

Because I know that although I have not received any love from you, yours does love me...even though I can't feel it."

Chen Guoxun's expression was slightly stunned, and he watched Xi Ziyue leaning over step by step.

"The conflict between you and I is just a big deal, so big that we all think we have no emotional connection with each other." Xiziyue hugged each other, and the faint fragrance on her body spread, like a cold winter.

Fragrance blooms.

"Goodbye, Dad, thank you for staring at me with such gentle eyes."

The light and shadow surged again like a tide, turning into pure white sunlight, and the noise of people was pulled into a straight line.

Chen Guoxun's last move was to accept, accepting the warmth and fragrance that surged from Xiziyue.

After the light and shadow dissipated, the entire underground laboratory was still shrouded in darkness, covered with thick dust everywhere. The huge nutrition bottle was empty, like a cradle that had already completed its mission.

Xiziyue looked at her wrist, with glowing pictures wrapped around it. It was something Chen Guoxun left to her. It was a very complex collection of dragon writings, recording the most mysterious truths from ancient times to the present.

The key to the eternal land.
