Chapter 222: Man and Dragon

It was unclear what kind of time power Polyvis used, and no special changes occurred after the two were enveloped.

Just as Anti was thinking this, he suddenly realized what had changed.

A lot of inspiration disappeared.

He relied on the media that he wore almost like strings on his body to sense all kinds of miracles, but now even if he wears the media, he has lost the ability to sense those miracles.

It seems to be isolated from those external forces.

However, this does not have much impact on Anti now, because the self, qi and a variety of divine miracles are still connected smoothly.

"Establish a temporary timeline to accommodate us, which is offset from the real timeline. Otherwise, it would be too easy to be discovered if we lead people around in this area." Seeing Anti's curious look, Polyvis explained.

Anti nodded, pretending to understand.

Polyvis took Antio to continue visiting the little secrets of the base.

Roar!
A shrill scream suddenly came from the depths, and Polyvis and Anti looked in the direction of the sound.

Polyvis's face was a little heavy. Without saying much, he took Antio deeper.

Here, Anti saw a small room where many dragon species were imprisoned.

There are a few lower-level dragons, and most of them are ancient dragons.

However, most of them are severely deformed, either born with limb loss or with abnormal hyperplasia and body deformity.

"This is Kira, a dragon born a year ago. Both wings are born on the right side of the body, and many skeletons in the body are missing... It has 41 days of natural life left."

"Its name is Sweiser. It was born three months ago. Its internal organs are disordered and squeezed together. It has been supported by the vitality of dragon species until now. It has 23 days of natural life left."

"It's Mo Dan, a one and a half month old dragon. The organ that can mobilize lightning in its body is at the level of an adult ancient dragon, but it is too small. It can only survive by suppressing this power. It has seven days of natural life left."

"It is Fan Deng, a dragon from a week ago. He has both the power of ice and fire. The two powers are out of control and are constantly reacting in his body, affecting his core organs. It is too late to suppress the power. His remaining natural life span is... three days."

"It...it's called Leland. It's a five-day-old dragon. It has no scales, its bones are exposed, and its flesh and blood are missing. It contracted a lot of diseases shortly after it was born, and its remaining natural life span is...zero."

Polyvis stopped at a small window and stared at the body curled up inside, which could only be described as "a mass of flesh and blood", and was stunned for a long time.

Soon, several staff members passed by Anti and Polyvis, and indeed they were unaware of the two. They opened the mechanism and opened the window, took out the shapeless body and threw it into the bag in their hands.

"This is too quick of a death." said one person.

"What else do you expect when you're already like this?"

"The breeding room is getting less and less attentive. Even if the higher-ups say they want to speed up the production of more dragons, this is completely about quantity and not quality. In recent years, the mortality rate of young dragons has been around 90%. Nearly 10,000 dragons are born every year, but not a single mature ancient dragon has been raised in these years. And this doesn't even include lower-level sub-dragons."

"It's a headache for the Dragon Corpse Project Base. The ancient dragon is just a consumable at this time. It doesn't matter. It was better before. Let's do our own thing and don't worry about other things."

Anti glanced at the backs of the two people in the distance, then turned back to look at Polyvis.

Polyvis sighed.

"You gave each of the dragons here a name?"

"No," Polyvis replied, "Many dragons don't survive my visit. They die at birth." "You can see when they die."

"For every dragon, I can see their remaining lifespan. It has been like this since they were young. But this is only their natural lifespan... Their natural lifespans will be quickly shortened due to other reasons, or they will simply die in some research."

"Even though you said that to me, to be honest, I don't feel anything." Anti said, "I have seen a lot of miserable people, and I don't feel anything, let alone dragons."

Polyvis said sincerely: "I have no intention of using these inhuman lives to kidnap you. I just hope to show you some of my thoughts."

"If you feel pity for them, why don't you just destroy this place, end the tragedy, and then take these poor lives to find a home where they can close their eyes in peace?" An asked.

"Because I don't know exactly where I stand." Polyvis also expressed his thoughts.

Anti looked at him.

He also went back to Anti: "As you can see, I am a human, I should be a human. But my birth is not that simple, I have the power of a dragon. My mother accompanied me through my childhood as a dragon, and then sent me into the human world. I still cannot figure out my mother's intentions. Humans have occupied a considerable part in my life. The identities of dragon and human are troubling me as to how to make a choice."

"It's so complicated." Anti himself would not think so much.

After all, he is an outsider to the world, and his self-awareness is very clear. If we talk about his position, he is just an employee of the boss, it's that simple. He will not be involved in such a conflict of position.

Just kill and that's it.

"To outsiders, I may be complaining without any reason. I'm sorry to make you laugh." Polyvis smiled awkwardly.

"You want to get the 'Dragon' Pillar?"

"To be precise, I just want to meet you."

"Would it be helpful for you to see something like that?" An asked.

"Maybe it can force me to make a decision when I am indecisive." said Polyvis.

"Do you know what that is?"

"I only know that it is a symbol of the power of the Pillar God back then. At least for people today, it may be a power that surpasses that of a real dragon. If I witness that kind of tremendous power, perhaps I can find the way."

"It's really a dereliction of duty for someone to have taken care of you like this." Anti said bluntly.

An important identity and crucial power fall on such a person.

Anti would not look down on him, but he felt that it was amazing that he could still maintain a stable state in such an environment in Rokidu, a breeding base.

What was going on in his head that caused him to fall into this wavering existence?

"I often complain to myself that I haven't seen my mother since we parted in childhood. Many times, I want to see her again and ask her what she thinks." Polyvis stroked the pocket watch gently with his fingers.

After thinking for a while, Anti said: "I don't know much about the pillar, but I can show you the fragments of the 'Night' pillar. It's up to you whether you can see anything from it. Other than that, I can't help you."

Hearing this, Polyvis showed a look of joy, raised one hand and clenched his fist as if to celebrate: "Really? That's great! Thank you, Mr. Anti."

Anti didn't respond.

Witnessing the Dragon Pillar, isn't this a choice in itself?
