“Never!”
Harrow jerked his body straight and said decisively, “Dragon skeletons can’t be stowed away, and dragons can’t be folded and wrapped in space. Therefore, Kataro’s body must be hidden somewhere in this world.”
“I’ve already found a few pieces of dragon bones, but they’re not complete enough.”
Its response was a little delayed.
Lu Yao realised this after he said it.
The dragon corpse of the Cloud Temple had been buried under the desert by the Cloud Cui-ui Clan because of this characteristic.
Harrow looked relieved, “Almost got sidetracked by you. I, Harrow, have also been through many battles and seen a lot, how could I make such a common sense mistake.”
Lu Yao felt the same.
Then, it seemed that there were other reasons for Harrow to be stranded in the human world.
“I’m here for the duel with Kataro!”
“A duel is a sacred and solemn oath!”
“As a Sebelius, an oath is life, a noble duty and obligation, and an outward expression of high divinity!”
“I see. ……”
Under Lu Yao’s ribs and honey cake offensive, the pirate dog slowly loosened up.
In fact, after searching for the Red Dragon for a hundred years to no avail, Harrow decided to return to the Underworld. It would not be possible to gather the Red Dragon’s corpse for a while, and this time, Harrow had already been away from the Gates of the Underworld for too long.
It contacted the ruler of Sebelius through a special way, the titled god “Hundred-Armed Giant”, only to receive a thunderbolt of a reply.
“There is no place for you at the Gate of the Underworld.”
The Sebelas were the exclusive group responsible for garrisoning the Gate of the Underworld. Every two Sebelas would guard the gate for an epoch, and then constantly take shifts, with a total of fifty Sebelas.
And there was a brutal elimination within the Sebelas, those with excellent abilities would shoulder the duties, and the weaker ones would be ineligible for the mission and be reduced to the status of a lost dog, losing even the name of Sebelas.
Harrow repeatedly emphasised that it was definitely not considered weak within the group of Cyberas, moderately so.
“The reason for that is because I borrowed the 『Hundred-Armed Giant』s Lord’s 『Hell’s Eye』, which was damaged from fighting against the Red Dragon’s 『Dragon Spine Scale Armour』. That’s why the 『Hell’s Eye』 suddenly detached and disappeared, causing one of my heads to explode as well.”
Speaking of this, Harrow was rather dejected, his ears lowered and his tail drooping.
Lu Yao summarised the central idea, “In other words, you’re the equivalent of being persuaded to take a leave of absence by the title deity?”
“It’s a leave of absence!”Harrow corrected.
Lu Yao asked again, “You said before that you must have a position and order at the Underworld gate to be considered a Sebelius, do you think you still are?”
Harrow’s dog mouth quirked, “I think I am.”
Lu Yao was curious, “Is Sebelius a follower of the ‘Hundred-Armed Giant’? What kind of group is it exactly?”
“I can only tell you that it is not. It is inconvenient to disclose the rest.”
It was tight-lipped when it came to the details of the Underworld.
Lu Yao suggested, “Since you have nothing to do right now, would you like to consider coming to work for me?”
There was no need for Harrow to do anything, just the Underworld intelligence that He Himself carried, as well as His years of experience in guarding the gates of the Underworld, was a treasure trove of doggy-type knowledge that would be helpful in optimising the management of ghosts.
“Although you are an honourable initiate, allow me to decline.”
Harrow said without pride, “I was born from the Underworld, I will eventually return to the Underworld, Sebelius will not accept the recruitment and gifts of foreign gods!”
Lu Yao said in his heart that it was a pity.
It seemed that Harrow had a deep affection and sense of belonging to the Underworld.
“Then in the future, if you have the will, feel free to come over at any time.”
Lu Yao threw out an olive branch.
Harrow squatted squarely on the ground and said very formally, “Thank you for your regard and goodwill, but it’s still out of the question.”
“I have some doubts.”
“You may speak.”
Lu Yao spoke, “According to human myths and legends, it seems that the image of the three-headed dog of hell was fabricated based on Sebelius, so are all Sebelius in three-headed dog form?”
Previously, Harrow had also said that in His four battles with the Red Dragon, two of His heads had exploded, and with this remaining head, it happened to be three.
“Of course not!”
Harrow shook his head and said, “That’s the world rules distorting imaging. You are an initiator, surely you know that if you cross into other worlds, the more powerful the power the more the image will be distorted and hidden, and no matter what posture you end up in, it is not the original appearance.”
“Imaging also varies from individual to individual under the projection of the world’s rules.”
“When Cyberus enters the world you are in, he takes on a form like a three-headed troll, and so is thought of as a wolf or dog with three heads …… We do have three heads, representing our three postures, facing different situations in different postures. It’s not like if you lose one head, you lose it forever.”
“In order to walk easily and not attract attention, I move in my current stance.”
Lu Yao nodded as he listened.
There was a time limit for the Low Realm Dimension to enter the High Realm Dimension, beyond fifteen days it would turn into an unpredictable monster or alien.
Harrow was also from the High Realm Dimension and was clearly not bound by this rule.
So it seems that some of the myths passed down by humans are true descriptions with some reference. It was just that these descriptions had been passed down by word of mouth and censored over a long period of time, and many of them had deviated greatly from the original versions.
Lu Yao changed direction, “Let’s still talk about the Silkworm Cong.”
“Oh, almost forgot.”
Harrow tore into two mouthfuls of ribs, his sharp teeth gnawing and clicking.
“It’s being hunted by a group of people, which as far as I can see should be the Committee.”
Lu Yao said in his heart that it was true.
“The Silkworm Bush asked me to do it a favour and let me come and find the memories it placed and bring them back to it.”Harrow tore at the bones ferociously and his voice became slurred.
Lu Yao thought for a moment and declined.
Although he didn’t think that Harrow was lying, whether it was the memory sketch on his wrist or the part left behind in the Dragon’s Nest, he could only let the Silkworm Bush take it itself.
This was also a side indication that the new generation of Silkworm Clumps indeed did not remember what had happened before.
“That’s fine, then I’ll just stay here and wait for it to come over.”
Harrow was quick to agree with Lu Yao, “Anyway, as long as I’m here, it’s not a violation of the oath. It’s just that you refuse to give it, and I can’t beat you.”
“I have a feeling that Silkworm Bush might have been captured.”
The Hell’s Three-Headed Dog’s [Chaser’s Mystery] could lock onto a tracking target, and He was able to find Lu Yao’s memory fragment here based on the fact that Silkworm Bush had sniffed it all the way here.
At the same time, He could also sense the general direction of the Silkworm Bush.
Separating from the Silkworm Bush, that Dragon Host Pillar Bush suddenly went motionless. Not long ago, after arriving at the city where Lu Yao was, Harrow found that Silkworm Bush’s aura had completely disappeared, just like the Red Dragon.
The difference was that while the fragments of the Red Dragon’s corpse were scattered all over this world, and some traces could still be found, the Silkworm Bush had completely disappeared.
“About yesterday, I vaguely sensed the Silkworm Bush again, but it’s in the very far north this time. It should still take quite some time for it to find its way all the way here, so I’ll trouble you, I’ll wait for it at your place these days.”
Harrow straightened his body and sat crouched on the ground, his ears perked up as he made a bowing and saluting gesture.
Lu Yao was momentarily speechless.
Dabbling was just dabbling, and you said it so righteously.
What about the promise of not accepting external recruitment and gifts?
Eating is something else, isn’t it?
Lu Yao thought to himself, “Forget it, it’s just one more mouth to feed. Speaking of which, Harrow is also considered to be an otherworldly downtrodden hitman, it hasn’t been sacked, it’s just that no one wants it.
It is just that no one wants it.
Lu Yao unwrapped a packet of meat muffins for it and put it in a bowl, “Harrow, ghosts only appear in the Low Boundary Dimension Worlds right?”
“Yes.”
The pirate dog sidestepped its teeth and chewed on the meat muffin, “This is the Real Aegis, the Real Aegis itself is a giant Realm Anchor, and its existence causes the surrounding space to fall into relative solidification, and this solidification phenomenon will continue to extend towards the outside world until it enters into absolute stasis completely.
“In the Real Aegis, the rule pressure will continue to grow and solidify, and will compress everything visible and invisible to a limiting range.”
“Not to mention the ghosts, we Sebelas are highly adaptable in our own right, but entering another Real Aegis would be all but bound and weakened.”
“I was still strong in my heyday, my battle power was at least three times what it is now, and I’ve weakened a lot since I came here. It should be the same if Kataro comes over.”
Harrow licked the tip of his nose.
Lu Yao vaguely grasped something, “Is that Low Realm Dimension also part of the Real Zeus?”
“You are talking about the Imaginary Zeus.”
Harrow ate the rice given by Lu Yao, and explained with extra patience, “The Virtual Aegis is what is commonly referred to as the Low Boundary Dimension, which is full of changes compared to the Real Aegis, and whether it is time or space is in a kind of jumping and continuous change …… it is like the surface of the water and the water underneath.”
“The surface of the water, no matter how wide, is only the top of the water.”
“The underwater is deeper, but it can’t directly affect the surface range.”
“Real Zeus can’t directly touch or overlap with each other, they themselves are individual spatial dimensions. No matter how big or far they expand, and how much space they solidify around them, they are still just water based on boundary anchors. Everyone is in a different depth of water, and they will not meet.”
“And it is only through the Void Zeus that one can touch in the true sense of the word.”
Lu Yao’s somewhat scattered thoughts finally became clear.
He put forward an idea: “That is to say, usually the world where the Real Aegis is located, it is difficult to meet other Real Aegis …… or other civilisations?”
“You are right.”
Harrow grunted and shivered the marrow in his ribs, “It’s like trees in different locations on a mountain.”
“They are relatively stationary, the roots are solid zeus that will grow downwards under regular pressure, locking in the surrounding soil environment. But the leaves on the tree have more directions and changes, and these branches and leaves are the imaginary aegis.”
“The many variations of the imaginary aegis stacked on top of each other make up the relatively solidified real aegis.”
“That’s pretty much what it means.”
Lu Yao thought.
The satellites and probes launched by humans, even the Voyager 1 that drifted the farthest, still hadn’t been able to leave the solar system and hadn’t picked up any signals from other intelligent civilisations.
According to Harrow’s description and definition of the Real Zeus, no matter how far the probes flew or how long they flew, it would be difficult to find the roots of another piece of the Real Zeus in this solidified space.
To reach out to other worlds, one would have to enter the virtual aegis where the branches and leaves were located.
This was consistent with Song Shiyi’s previous assertion.
