Chapter 191 Dinosaur Mechanical Army
"Of course, in theory, these two research topics have entered the experimental stage. But I now need more types of earth dragon gene samples to study, so as to extract the best animal gene chain for human physique..."
Irubek smiled again and continued, "I need a stable scientific research environment and enough research materials. Therefore, there is no better choice than for my disciple to be the city lord."
Ryan was also full of expectations for the old man's research and said, "Teacher, if nothing unexpected happens, I may be the city lord. But it is different from the traditional lord. It is more like a false title, and the final power will be in the parliament. But whether it is Ymir or I who is in power, we will definitely find a way to guarantee you everything you need for your research..."
"I don't understand politics, and I don't want to spend time trying to understand it."
Irubek listened and shook his head, not wanting to bother with anything that was not related to medicine. He added, "So, I think your marriage with Ymir is the most stable relationship. Of course, I think she will definitely agree in the end..."
The old man is really worried about his disciple's marriage.
Ryan rubbed his brows as he listened, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
But on second thought, if the old man was not his teacher but someone else, he would be tempted by this "bride price".
He felt that if someone told him about this "bride price", he would even consider selling himself in exchange for benefits.
But, a forced melon is not sweet!
"Oh, one more question."
At this time, Irubek stopped talking about topics unrelated to the experiment and talked about his other question seriously.
"I need earth dragon samples for the experiment, preferably all of them are level five. Because you know, the higher the level of the monster, the more complete the genetic sequence..."
Ryan nodded: "No problem."
Although the fifth-level dinosaurs are very powerful, there are many high-end combat forces in the city, so it is not a problem to capture a few of them.
"No, that's not my point."
Irubek added, "Recently, I've discovered a pattern. The rank of the earth dragons in our current territory on the east side of the 'Karatwa Basin' is not too high, with very few being rank five. But the further west you go into the basin, the stronger the average rank of the earth dragons, and there are groups of high-ranking earth dragons! From a biological point of view, the higher the average rank of the Warcraft group, the higher the purity of its bloodline. So, if the black dragon is still alive, it is very likely that it is somewhere in the high-risk area to the west. If you want to open up new land and hunt dragons, you must pay attention to the west..."
The higher the blood talent of a Warcraft, the easier it is to advance to a higher level. This is common biological knowledge.
When Ryan heard this, his brows slightly furrowed, not daring to despise him at all: "Got it, teacher."
…
Ryan left the lab with no intention of staying there overnight.
After traveling through the wilderness for more than ten days, I was really tired.
On his first day in the territory, he planned to have a good rest. In the territory behind the high wall, he could finally sleep peacefully.
Now the houses in the territory were clearly divided into two groups. Ryan didn't hesitate at all and went directly to the shanty area where the Coleman people lived.
"Hey, Dr. Ryan, long time no see!"
"I heard that it was you who saved Lord Mafa and the people in the belly of the Hell Flower. Thank you so much..."
"You saved our Coleman tribe..."
“…”
Along the way, the Coleman people he met greeted him warmly. This group of simple Coleman warriors always gave him a very friendly feeling.
He glanced around the camp and found out that no one knew where Lady Canossa had gone. Since she was a legend, he didn't need to worry about her safety, so Ryan didn't care much.
After meeting Mafa and the two elders and discussing some things, Ryan also planned to take a rest.
After leaving the largest shed where Mafa lived, I saw Wuduo who had been waiting at the door for a long time.
I haven't seen this girl for a month or two. She has grown taller. Her long legs under the short leather skirt are straight and slender, very eye-catching.
Maybe in another year or two, Ryan felt that she would be taller than him.
I didn't see her carefully before because there were so many people around. Now I realize that Wu Duo has not only grown taller, but her boyish short hair has also grown out. It is now shoulder-length and looks very heroic. And when I look down, I can see that her chest is bulging, and it seems that she is also in a period of rapid growth.
Looking at it this way, she really looks a bit like a girl.
Just like when she was in the Atrium Tribe before, she was still acting as a competent secretary, without any restraint, and whispered, "Dr. Ryan, your residence is ready for you."
"Oh, thank you."
Since he had always lived in the same room with this girl, Ryan didn't feel awkward at all and followed her directly to a newly built straw hut.
The style of the thatched hut is similar to the one I lived in before, but it is much smaller.
There was a bed on each side, and a charcoal grill in the middle, with the grilled meat producing translucent fat, which would occasionally drip into the coal ash, making a crackling sound.
"Hey, what kind of monster meat is this? It smells like something I've never eaten before..."
After entering the house, Ryan didn't hesitate. His stomach was growling with hunger, and when he smelled the aroma of meat, he couldn't wait to tear off a big piece and put it into his mouth.
I have to admit, he always felt that the meat grilled by Wuduo tasted better.
Wu Duo smiled and responded, "It's an earth dragon. It's the kind with three horns on its head... The warriors of the tribe went out to hunt it during the day."
"oh."
When Ryan heard the description, he roughly guessed that it might be a "Triceratops".
While eating dinosaur meat, he thought of something and asked, "By the way, Wu Duo, aren't you Coleman people good at taming monsters? Why don't you tame earth dragons as mounts?"
"Our ancestors tried it a long time ago, but it didn't work."
Wu Duo shook his head and explained: "Earth dragons are dragon-blooded creatures. They may not be very intelligent, but they are very arrogant. They can feel the pressure of their blood, so even if it means death, they will not surrender and become human mounts. Even among our Coleman tribe, except for those weak earth dragons, or those that have been domesticated since childhood, very few high-level earth dragons can be tamed..."
“I see…”
When Ryan heard this, he pursed his lips.
He also said that if he could build a dinosaur trooper, it would seem like he would have to do it.
It feels a bit of a waste to use these earth dragons, which are half a level stronger than the monsters of the same level, only for their meat and materials.
Besides, he was envious of the pterosaurs in the sky. Air supremacy is king, but it seems that this is also a failure...
Suddenly, he thought of something, "Oh, right, Wuduo! Master Mafa asked me to give this thing to you..."
As he spoke, he took out a milky white ball and handed it over.
As the high priest of Coleman, Wu Duo naturally recognized this thing, but it was not any of the impressions she had. She was surprised and said, "Is this... a divine totem?"
Ryan nodded and said, "Master Mafa said it was the [Totem of Ten Thousand Beasts]."
"ah!"
At this, Wu Duo had a shocked expression on his face and exclaimed, "Isn't the [Beast Totem] lost?"
"We were eaten by the giant flower before, and then we happened to find this totem in the temple of General Morogos."
Ryan explained briefly, then lifted up his clothes, "Here, there is also this [Thunder Totem]."
As he spoke, he looked at Wu Duo's timid appearance, and stuffed the totem bead into her hand, saying, "Take it, Master Mafa told you to take it!"
"ah……"
Wu Duo was flattered and at a loss as to what to do. But when he saw the bead was already in his hand, he quickly took the milky white totem bead with his hands and raised it above his head, bowing with a sense of ritual, praising the greatness of the god Morogos.
…
After a long while, the prayer was completed.
The tension on Wu Duo's face finally dissipated, and he asked Ryan in disbelief: "In the tribe, only the elders are qualified to inherit the divine totem... Are you mistaken?"
Ryan pursed his lips: "I don't know either. Anyway, that's what the witch priest said. He said that you are originally from the lineage of the beast priest, and this totem is just right for you."
In fact, he had guessed the witch priest's plan in his heart.
Wuduo is the link between the Coleman tribe and herself. Although she is not an elder yet, she is the most suitable one for this totem bead.
Hearing what Ryan said, Wu Duo's face showed a touch of flattered excitement, "I...I..."
Ryan looked at the girl's stuttering and interrupted her with a smile, "Stop talking to me, just refine the totem. The witch priest has said so, so just take it with confidence."
Wu Duo looked at Ryan with a complicated expression and said, "I mean, if we have this [Totem of Ten Thousand Beasts], the plan you mentioned before to tame the earth dragon may be possible..."
Ryan: “Huh?”
Wu Duo explained: "The message passed down by our Coleman ancestors said that this [Totem of All Beasts] can make people understand the language of all beasts and have a strong affinity with magical beasts. Therefore, after refining this totem, I may be able to communicate with those earth dragons... and perhaps tame them."
"Haha...it would be great if I could really tame it! Udo, you're amazing!"
As Ryan listened, the gleam in his eyes grew brighter.
Dinosaur mounts, dinosaur mechanical legions... Hearing what Wu Duo said, at this moment, he seemed to see that the territory would have a super powerful dinosaur legion in the near future!
Wu Duo smiled as he listened to Ryan's praise.
…
No words were spoken that night.
In the morning, Ryan and Udo walked out of the shed.
There is a high-level meeting in the territory today. The high priest Mafa, two elders, Tust, Ryan and Udo are traveling together.
Basel was originally called, but he was not interested at all. Compared with attending any meeting, he preferred to sleep in.
No one knew where Canossa went last night, but Daqing met him in the camp.
There was a huge zombie tide last night, and people from Omar have heard about it. Some powerful people have come to the territory again.
Among them is a top mechanic at the "Grand Master" level, some powerful Coleman warriors, and the mysterious ally of the legendary Princess.
No one knew where the topic started, but the gossip spread quietly to tens of thousands of people in Omar overnight.
"Have you heard? The princess' ally has finally arrived..."
"How could I not have heard of him? I saw him on the city wall last night. He was a very handsome young man. I also heard that Ryan was the man of our eldest princess..."
"Ah, no way? The princess has a cold personality and I've never heard of any scandals. How come she suddenly has a man?"
"Tsk~ You just found out about this? If he's not the princess's man, who do you think is qualified to form an alliance with her?"
"I heard that the princess's man is a disciple of Dr. Irubek. That powerful mechanical master is also a friend he brought with him. Oh, and those tall Coleman warriors... they all seem to be friends of the princess's man!"
"As expected, a man who is favored by the princess must not be an ordinary person."
“…”
Rumors are something that cannot be controlled.
A hundred mouths can produce a hundred different versions of the story.
Even though Ymir is the head lord of her own family, the romantic affairs of the royal family are always something that everyone talks about.
As long as it is not malicious slander, it is not a serious matter in the aristocratic circle and no one will care.
At first, the rumor was just that Ryan and Ymir had an unusual relationship. But later on, the topic gradually became about their secret love affairs.
"I heard that Ryan is as strong, sturdy, and big as those Colemans..."
"Hey, let me tell you, I have a relative who is the brother-in-law of the princess' personal guard. I heard that back in the 'Forest of Ashes', the princess and the man named Ryan had a tryst in the tent..."
"Tsk tsk... Last night, when I was on night patrol, I saw a blonde woman in a cloak quietly going to the Coleman tribe..."
“…”
The craftsmen had already started to work again, and the "rumor" quickly spread among the 20,000 or 30,000 people in Oma through whispers.
Those people in Omar knew about "The Princess' Man" first, and then they knew about Ryan.
…
Ryan didn't expect that he would become a famous figure in the territory overnight.
The temporary meeting room is in the machine built by Omar, and he and Marfa and his group need to cross the temporary block.
At this time, no one knew who shouted.
"That man is coming!"
In an instant, countless heads popped out from all over the houses, looking curiously at Ryan and his companions walking on the street.
The Colemans were definitely not, and Tust’s age didn’t match up, so they locked onto “Ryan” as quickly as they could.
Being stared at by thousands of eyes, Wu Duo felt a little timid and muttered in Coleman: "They seem to be looking at us..."
Ryan knew that those guys were not looking at "us" but at "me".
He was very familiar with that look of watching the fun.
He clearly felt countless eyes falling on him, like a knife scraping, as if piercing through his clothes.
Uh... why does my crotch feel even colder?
Seeing Canossa smiling without saying anything, Ryan guessed that it must be the "rumor" that worked.
…
"Wow... the princess' man is really handsome."
"She doesn't look very old..."
"I'm not too old, and I'm in good health, that's all..."
Although there was some criticism, it seemed that the expected results were achieved.
Except for a few young Omar men who looked at him with a bit of jealousy, most Omar people looked at Ryan with kindness. Especially the older ladies, each of them looked at Ryan with a smile as if they were looking at their own "son-in-law".
Of course, the young girls were also interested in the man standing as the princess, and they were all smiling.
At this time, some bold girl greeted us enthusiastically.
"Good morning, Mr. Ryan!"
Then, the whole block was filled with greetings and laughter.
Ryan was shocked by the sudden enthusiasm and responded awkwardly: "Good morning, everyone..."
