Ace Dragon Rider
Chapter 715 - 571: Return to the Academy_2
"At the Observation Station, the Maintenance Golem had subtly suggested and, reinforced by his own speculation, Long Yi knew he could change his identity through this object. Coming here had indeed made everything possible.
The Giant tablet in Long Yi’s hand served as a personal assistant for the Giants. It had a powerful automatic function which, while struggling to complete more complex instructions, performed remarkably well when executing clear commands such as searching and editing identity information.
"Warning, modification of identity information requires special authorization. Do you wish to proceed with verification?"
Long Yi didn’t hesitate.
A ray of light swept over the staff in Long Yi’s hand.
"Authorization granted. You may proceed with the modification of identity information."
Indeed, in the identity information, Long Yi’s Giant Pioneer bloodline glaringly appeared.
He subsequently deleted his Pioneer bloodline, leaving only the Giant.
"Save information," prompted Long Yi.
Instantly, two rays of light shot from the eyes of a nearby Giant statue onto Long Yi’s bracelet. Although he felt no sensation, his modified identity could be confirmed through the tablet. At least inside the bracelet, Long Yi’s identity information had been altered.
Thrilled, Long Yi prepared to pack up his staff and tablet and leave. Just as he turned around, he saw the students who had run away observing him from a distance.
"You are Mr. Long Yi, aren’t you?"
The student who had been drawing asked, his face flushed red.
"Yes, I’m that big fool," replied Long Yi cheerfully.
"I... even though I cannot go to the battlefield, I also want to help!" The student seemed to have struggled to say that sentence.
Long Yi chuckled, and retorted:
"I can understand your feelings, young man. However, you’re obviously wrong. If you can’t go to the battlefield, you should at least maintain stability in the rear to enable the warriors to focus on the war, instead of filling everyone with resentment."
"But our elder brother said it’s the best way to support the warriors!" protested the student.
"I am that warrior. But I haven’t felt supported at all. Instead, I’m worried that there may be chaos in the rear during our fights," Long Yi declared.
"Is that so..." The student looked uncertain. After all, Long Yi, the legendary hero who saved the White Dragon Empire and the savior who annihilated the Black Dragon Empire, was standing before him. Wouldn’t his words be undeniably true?
"I bet those who made all of you do these things have gained quite some fame recently, right?" Long Yi revealed a knowing grin and remarked.
No one was a fool. Some things didn’t need to be stated outright. At this age, some things were plain as day once you thought about it.
"Do you mean, we have been manipulated!"
"I don’t know, you should know better. That’s enough from me, the rest is for you to figure out."
Finishing his words, Long Yi turned around and left.
After a long silence, one of the students finally murmured regretfully: "Originally, I sort of wanted his autograph, but I didn’t dare to ask when I approached him."
The student who had conversed with Long Yi nodded heavily, "Actually, I wanted an autograph too."
Long Yi quickly returned to the Gentle Wind Plain and immediately set into motion his second space exploration plan. He added two more layers to the Dragon Scale’s cockpit for insulation and then headed straight for space!
This time, Observation Station 46 was above Long Yi’s head. As his cockpit neared the Observation Station, the guiding array didn’t appear; instead, the weapon system emerged.
"Identity change detected, please verify your identity again."
A line of text appeared on the tablet.
Immediately, Long Yi moved his bracelet towards the tablet. The light from the tablet quickly scanned his bracelet.
"Welcome home, my master!"
Reading this line put Long Yi at ease. He had been worried that he would be exposed due to the advanced technology of the Giants.
However, the actual result proved him wrong. He had clearly been overthinking it.
The guiding array made its appearance, escorting Long Yi’s cockpit into the
Observation Station.
As soon as he left the cockpit, a golem, identical to the Maintenance Golem he’d encountered before, appeared.
"Welcome to Observation Station 46. I’m the Maintenance Golem here, delighted to serve you. The "complete" map of the Observation Station has been stored in your personal assistant, and apart from the special areas, "all" privileges have been opened to you. You can also choose to take away any object you like. Now, would you like to rest first, or do you want to visit the areas of the Observation Station in which you have a "greater" interest first?"
Upon hearing the golem’s introduction, emphasized with a raised vocal inflection, Long Yi knew he had genuinely succeeded this time. The thoughts of all the maintenance golems in the sky had been networked together. Basically, this was the same golem as before.
Indeed, even the disdainful look it threw at the Giant Swallow Dragon was just the same.
The living quarters were located on the lower level, which Long Yi had already thoroughly explored during his previous visit. Thus, on this trip, he was going to explore areas he hadn’t visited before.
Entering the middle level from the lower level required going through a spiral stairway. Each step was very high, truly designed for Giants. Long Yi jumped up one step at a time and after reaching halfway upward, the Maintenance Golem suddenly spoke.
"Please be cautious, master. You’re about to come into contact with the rule net. This might make you feel historically uncomfortable. Even in the good old days, 8% of Giants felt discomfort, including symptoms like dizziness, nausea, and tinnitus. However, these symptoms won’t last long."
"Rule net?"
"Yes, the rule net. It covers the human world as a field of rules, serving as one of the basic means to protect the human world. Among its functions, one you should be familiar with is restricting all life power levels within the planet to within ten Dragon Marks. Any life exceeding this level will forcibly be marked for return, or forcibly erased. For the detailed introduction of the rule net, please refer to your personal assistant... Also, modifying the rule net is beyond your authority."
"Oh, okay."
Long Yi, whose eyes were beginning to glisten, could only offer an awkward grin in response.
As Long Yi gradually ascended, indeed, after crossing a certain step, he felt as though he was soaring. His heartbeat began to accelerate, his thoughts became sharper, and his power, which hadn’t changed in a long while, began to surge seemingly out of nowhere!
Eight Dragon Marks! Nine Dragon Marks! Ten Dragon Marks! Eleven Dragon Marks!
Twenty-five Dragon Marks!
Long Yi wasn’t very clear about the larger units of power, but it was certain that his own strength had inconceivably soared to twenty-five Dragon Marks! (To be continued.
