Chapter 68: Seven is a mysterious number

"Have you no doubts, no questions that you want answered?"
Looking at the demon in front of him, who seemed to be in a "daze", the ancient tree of Silena couldn't help but urged, "It won't take too long for me to wake up every time."
"Ah, okay! Then I'll ask a question!" After hearing his words, Roy asked absently to the ancient Silena tree while sketching on the system interface with his fingers: "My question is, Do you think the world you live in is real?"
The first time he heard this question, the ancient tree of Silena was stunned. After a long time, he replied: "Of course, I think this world is real!"
"Really?" Roy continued to ask, "Have you ever thought about whether the world you are in will be a world imagined by some humans? It may originate from a novel, a The story, or even just a fragment of a script, even the characters in this world are much the same as in the fantasy, if so, would you still feel that your world is real?"
In fact, this is also the real doubt in Roy's heart. Now that he sees the ancient Silena tree and sees him urging him to ask a question, Roy can't help but say it.
However, beyond Roy's expectations, the ancient tree of Silena didn't think much, and replied directly: "I think the world is still real!"
Roy's fingers paused and asked, "Why do you say that?"
"Hehe!" The ancient tree of Silena let out a burst of laughter and said, "You are really an interesting demon, unlike all the demons I have ever met, they only ask me questions about killing and destruction. , but never asked like you, maybe what you said, the origin of the world, from someone, someone's fantasy, but what does it matter? The world is real because we can feel our own Existence, when we can breathe the air, feel the solidity of the earth, feel the heat of the sun, and see the changing seasons, then it is real!"
"..." Roy pondered the meaning of this sentence carefully, and did not speak for a while. After a long time, he nodded slightly to the ancient Silena tree and said, "I have been taught! You are indeed right!"
The ancient tree of Silena laughed loudly, and seemed to be able to help people answer their doubts, and he was also very happy.
"Okay, I've answered your question, then, in exchange, it's your turn to talk to me about you!" Silena Ancient Tree said: "Whether it's about yourself, or about your demons The world, even if it is your experience of a certain killing, you can share it with me!"
These words made Roy feel that this ancient Silena tree felt like a lonely old man at all. It was extremely lonely, the kind that everyone wanted to chat with.
In fact, think about it. Trees are different from human elves and demons. They can only root in a fixed place and cannot roam around. However, the ancient Silena tree is a very long-lived tree species, with hundreds of They have stayed in the same place for thousands of years. It is no wonder that every time they encounter intelligent creatures, they want to chat with others.
"Well, so be it!" Roy sat down in front of the ancient Silena tree and said, "Let me tell you about my current experience!"
While saying this, Roy suddenly had something in his hand.
It was a small round crystal ball. Inside the crystal ball, there was a golden color, and in the center of the crystal ball, there was a five-pointed star!
"What is this?" The ancient tree of Silena was immediately attracted by the thing in Roy's hand.
"Cough! This is..." Roy hesitated for a while, and finally said cheekily: "This thing is called Dragon Ball!"
"Dragon Ball?" The canopy of the ancient Silena tree swayed slightly, making the leaves rustle, and he said strangely: "Is it something related to giant dragons? I have seen many giant dragons, but Never heard them mention this stuff..."
"Uh... This dragon ball has nothing to do with dragons!" Roy said: "This is something I found by accident. For this reason, I checked a lot of ancient books, and then I learned it. its name!"
"Oh? Is this thing very old?" The ancient tree of Silena was completely attracted by Roy's words at this time.
"Yes! It's so old that many people don't know its origin!" Roy's face became thicker the more he fooled him now, and said, "According to the records, there are seven such things called Dragon Balls in total, and the stars inside them. The number is also from one to seven!"
Roy raised the crystal ball in his hand and showed it to the ancient Silena tree, saying, "Did you see it? This one in my hand has only one star in it. I call it a planet!"
Silena Gushu understood it in seconds, and said, "So, there are still two planets, three-star orbs?"
"Yes!" Roy completely entered the state, with a serious face and a look of longing, and said: "In legend, this dragon ball was made by the Dragon God..."
However, before he could finish his words, he was suddenly interrupted by the ancient Silena tree, and his face formed by the bark was full of shock, saying: "Wait...wait! You just said, this Dragon Ball Made by the Dragon God? Which Dragon God!? Is it Asha, the Dragon of Order, or Orgas, the Dragon of Chaos!?"
Roy was stunned by his rhetorical question. What the hell, why did he involve the Dragon of Order and the Dragon of Chaos? I was just going to fool around, why are you so serious! ?
"Uh, I don't know about this either!" Roy had to say: "There is no detailed record in the books."
The ancient tree of Silena sighed and said, "Also, if this dragon ball is really made by the dragon of creation, then it would be incredible... Ah, sorry, I shouldn't interrupt you, you continue to say !"
"These seven dragon are scattered in every corner of the world!" Roy said: "When they are alone, they have no effect, but when the seven dragon are gathered together, if they can sing a spell, it is said that You can call out the Shenlong! The Shenlong will fulfill the wish of the person who collects the Dragon Balls, any wish!"
The ancient Silena tree was stunned, and the leaves all over his body rustled. He was completely shocked by the legend that Roy said.
This guy Roy, the dragon ball he made is not a real dragon ball at all, it's just a beacon. The beacon can look like anything, but Roy made it look like seven dragon balls. It is to prevent a single beacon from being destroyed or lost, so when he designed it, in the definition attribute added, the hardness of the seven dragon is as large as possible, and when they are gathered together, the positioning signal will be increased to the maximum.
His original intention was to leave these seven beacons in this world, and then fabricated a legend, hoping to use the mouth of the ancient Silena tree to inform the people of this world. In this case, maybe someone will deliberately go to Collect these dragon and save them. This collection process will definitely not be easy and the time will not be short. This can also leave plenty of time for Roy himself. After all, even if he wants to enter this world again, he will Wait until the strength is stronger, the level of the upper demon is not necessarily guaranteed, it may be higher.
However, what Roy didn't know was that the legend he made up made the ancient tree of Silena misunderstood.
He really believed it, because in this world, the legend of the Seven Dragons has always been circulating!
In the creation legend of this world of Ashan, two twin dragons were born in the initial chaos, one is the dragon of order, Asha, the other is the dragon of chaos, and the dragon of order, Asha, created six dragons. The Dragon of Elements, and the Dragon of Chaos, Orgas, created a demon. There was a war between the two sides. After the Dragon of Order defeated the Dragon of Chaos, he went into seclusion and healed his wounds. Then, the history of the ancient world was forgotten by future generations. , but the six elemental dragons created by Asha began to be worshipped by the people of the Ashan world as beliefs. In the end, a warlock named Sa Airan became the first person to touch the heart of the dragon of order. , the dragon of order taught him the nature of matter and spirit, and led him to the higher path of power, and Sa Ellen was enlightened to become the seventh dragon, the day he became the seventh dragon, the seven dragons In the first year of the century, he announced the ancient history to the world and reminded the world of the dragon of creation.
Therefore, after listening to Roy's story, the ancient tree of Silena immediately associated the seven dragon with the Seven Dragons. He even thought that these seven dragon might not have been created by Asha, the dragon of order. , nor was it created by Ergas, the Dragon of Chaos. Maybe it was created by the Six Dragons of Elements and Sar Airang. After all, the number seven...
If Roy knew what the ancient tree of Silena was thinking, he would probably be stunned. In other words, the number seven is really a very magical number. You see, dead people have the first seven, people have seven emotions, one There are seven days in the week, the seven fairies, the seven dwarfs, the Qixi Festival, the seven dragon balls, the Big Dipper and so on...
This can only be said to be too coincidental, so that even though the ancient Silena tree had never heard of Dragon Ball for a long time, when Roy mentioned it to him for the first time, he still believed it.
When Roy told him that he was trying to find other dragon and planned to collect all seven summoning dragons, the ancient tree of Silena even asked Roy with great interest what the spell was about calling the dragon.
Of course Shenlong couldn't be called, so Roy had to tell him that the spell was lost...
"What a magical treasure!" The ancient tree of Silena sighed: "Perhaps, it is the most powerful treasure in history? Demon, you are really lucky to be able to get one of the dragon balls..."
"Uh..." Roy looked at his emotional expression and couldn't help scratching his head for a while. Is this being fooled and lame? Could it be that after he became a demon, he really awakened his talent for flickering?
After staying here for a while, Roy said goodbye to the ancient tree of Silena when the fat tiger returned from hunting and had enough to eat and drink.
Looking at the back of Roy leaving, the ancient tree of Silena couldn't help it. He didn't expect that the devil he encountered by chance could tell him such a secret. He felt that the knowledge base he had formed over thousands of years was enriched again. , so very excited.
"Ah, maybe you can tell this news to others!" Silena Ancient Tree said to himself: "Although this demon is not bad, but something as important as the Dragon Ball should not fall into the hands of the demon. good……"
Well, it's decided that the next time I meet a traveler, I will pass on this news...
Therefore, the ancient Silena tree is essentially a big mouth, and everything is not what Roy expected...
