Chapter 1311: Chapter 209: You Actually Have Pioneer Authority?!

A storm erupted, blowing both Sio and Yisen Gard’s bodies away, while their souls returned to their bodies simultaneously, blood spilling from their noses and mouths, clearly showing both their brains and souls were injured.

They exceeded their limits, truly blocking Echo for over ten seconds, buying Ian time… but unfortunately, it still seemed to fall short.

“Hey… if you’ve got the guts, come and attack me.”

Yet at this moment, Ian still had the spirit to muster the last bit of strength to taunt the Dark Gold Colossus Dragon: “I’ll tell you upfront, I’m very tough. Before you can pull me out, I’ll use your power to destroy your stomach sac, making your Soul of Origin leave your body… And if you attack me, I can guarantee I won’t die before your own power shatters your soul!”

Boom——

At this moment, a violent tremor suddenly erupted in the distance within the Domain of Void. It was the fluctuation of a battle between Fourth Energy Level powerhouses… Given the current situation, it was undoubtedly a battle between Yafada and ‘Golan’!

[Why go to this extent!]

Noticing the turbulence afar, knowing that time was running out, Echo roared, the dragon’s roar shaking the entire Dragon Nest: [Why be so stubborn! You just want to go outside and look at the stars, and I can take your soul out to see them, isn’t that enough? I can achieve my goal without assimilating you, I swear by the Rites of the Star Gods I will absolutely keep my promise]

“It’s no use, Echo, stop talking, what you want is completely different from mine.”

Trapped in the dragon’s flesh and blood, Ian’s voice grew weaker, but his will became more determined: “The stars are just my direction, the light is just my road, my true goal is something Echo you cannot imagine…”

“Echo, what I want is the infinite.”

[Infinite…]

Even the dragon paused for a moment, with an incomparably strange tone: [What infinite?]

“Infinite distance. Infinite planets. Infinite stories. Infinite people and desires.”

Even though he was nearly immobilized, caught in the flesh activated by the dragon, Ian still exerted all his strength to reach out, trying to touch the ‘Soul of Origin’ in the stomach sac.

The black-haired knight calmly and firmly said: “I want to see countless different stellar coronal explosion radii, I want to see the germination of different life among millions of planets… I want to see planets made purely of diamond, gold, and water, I want to see countless different intelligent beings and their cultures, ideals, and histories.”

“I want to witness the brightness of black hole jets with my own eyes, I want to record the magnetic field changes generated by the explosion of two neutron stars, I want to become the distant star of humans, going to the farthest territories and expanding the borders of cognition.”

“To be honest, I am really grateful to have awakened in the Terra Universe, even though there are unlucky things like the Demon of the Abyss, but there are also good seniors like the Star God who suit my taste, the universe they created is so wonderful and vast, unparalleled in splendor, how can I not go see it?”

Saying this, due to the decline in power, the stance of the black-haired knight slowly retreated, returning to the smiling white-haired boy: “But this is not the end, it is merely the dream of my past life.”

“Echo, I want to see how a civilization transforms from decay to unity, I want to see a twilight nation shine again, I want to see a child from a village return home, turning their impoverished hometown wealthy!”

“I want to see, not only that, I want to resolve—people in this world are still being forced from their homeland, still having their dignity trampled by the powerful, women are still forced into prostitution, children are still not getting enough to eat, not to mention the path of the Sublimator is still incomplete, the direction of Inscription Studies is misguided… How can such a world be used by me? These suffering people don’t even look up to the sky, I have too many things to do, how can I just leave like you?!”

“Echo, what I want is the infinite possibilities!”

[You…]

Echo was not just confused, He was utterly stunned: [What on earth… No, you’re crazy… but…]

—But I want it too.

At this moment, in the ancient memory banks of Echo, the countless archetypal cognitive modules constructed made His soul quiver slightly.

—Such a dream is also our dream!

An unspeakable fervor boiled in the heart, only the most rational thought pattern of the informational life made Him calm down quickly: [But this is meaningless. Only by living can you think about the future, only with a future can you pursue the infinite you speak of]

[You’re insane. Your thoughts are completely detached from reality, having dreams is good, but if you ignore the objective conditions, then it’s forever just empty talk]

Saying so, the Dark Gold Colossus Dragon slowly curled his body, He said in a deep voice: [Indeed, I cannot use violence to remove you from my belly now… but you underestimate dragons]

Rumble…

The sound of flesh and blood writhing echoed, and in this instant, Ian suddenly felt terrible pressure coming at him from all directions.

He felt as though he was trapped inside a hundred-ton water press, being squashed and squeezed by the terrifying brute strength of the True Dragon’s flesh, and within this flesh began to gradually grow extremely hard ‘tooth’-like structures, aiming to completely ‘crush’ and ‘grind’ his body!

—The Dark Gold Colossus Dragon had suddenly grown an internal ‘huge mouth’ to thoroughly chew Ian in place!
