——I feel Ian has gotten stronger. Indeed, it’s Ian, someone who defies normal logic.
This was Sio’s thought, very simple and direct, without any twists and turns.
"What should we do next?"
Yisen Gard asked curiously as he saw Ian leading the two of them toward the ’corpse’ of the Dark Gold Colossus Dragon: "Are we going to dismantle the dragon’s materials? But with just the three of us and no alchemical equipment, it’s hard to process and take away."
"I want to help! I’ve never seen the body structure of other dragons!"
And Sio had no qualms about being a True Dragon himself——True Dragon was merely a classification humans gave them; in fact, every True Dragon from different civilization origins sees other True Dragons as aliens.
"...How could I? It’s a perfectly good living dragon’s body, and its lifespan is far from over. Why would I want to dismantle it?"
Ian shook his head. He approached the reverse scale of the Dark Gold Colossus Dragon and used the Silver Chip to link with the dragon.
Then, six eyes lit up, and the body of the Dark Gold Colossus Dragon slowly turned around, crouching down and opening its mouth toward the wide-eyed Yisen and Sio.
Ian smiled beside the dragon’s mouth and made a gesture as if to say ’please come in’: "Please willingly fall into the dragon’s mouth—Qing Steel Dragon’s stomach sack is large enough to serve as a cockpit for all three of us."
"Let’s join forces to pilot this dragon’s body, the safety is absolutely guaranteed!"
"...Wow." Stunned for a while, Yisen exclaimed with great surprise: "There’s such a trick?"
He then immediately became excited: "Great! I might be the first in our Ellen Family truly able to ’parasite’ on a True Dragon!"
"Thank you, Ian! You’ve fulfilled my childhood dream!"
"I am a Dragon Soul piloting a synthetic body." Sio began calculating: "And now, my synthetic body, piloted by Dragon Soul, is entering a dragon’s body as a co-pilot, to pilot another dragon...It’s a Matryoshka!"
"Stop the chatter and get in quickly."
Ian clicked his tongue, realizing that his two friends had become more open-minded under his training, but this wasn’t a bad thing.
Because by staying with him, the days to come would undoubtedly become more exciting and awe-inspiring.
Entering the dragon’s body, following the passage straight into the stomach sack, though it is essentially a ’biochemical reactor’, under Echo’s transformation, it has actually turned into a cockpit located within the dragon’s body, with many connections to link the whole dragon’s body.
Yisen and Sio felt a bit unused to it, but Ian had completely mastered it.
"Do you remember, Yisen?"
Using the ability to manipulate iron with the ’Abyssal Iron Core’ out of nothing, and the various metal materials stored within the dragon’s body, Ian crafted several data connection cables with his bare hands. He walked behind the blond-haired boy, smiling: "Back in the Southern Sea, it was you who helped me connect the signal cables of my Armor Suit."
"Now, you seem to be the expert in this field." Yisen Gard chuckled, reminiscing: "Back then, your body was so unbelievably hard that I couldn’t even attach the cables. Now looking back, that was the moment when The Unyielding Fortress showed a flaw...but who would have thought of it without that thought in mind?"
"That’s the inevitable oversight of human consciousness."
Linking Yisen with the body of the dragon, Ian wouldn’t actually let his friend, who knew nothing about controlling a dragon’s body, fight, but he needed Yisen’s computing power to assist him in adjusting the flow of Origin Quality inside the dragon’s body.
And even more so for Sio, after all, Ian wasn’t a real dragon. He needed the instincts of Sio, this True Dragon’s Dragon Soul, to better control the True Dragon’s body.
He didn’t want to end up like Echo, struggling to control a dragon’s body with the attacks being unable to defend...he wanted to do his best!
Soon, Ian linked up his friends, and Yisen and Sio also hooked him up—in fact, it wasn’t necessary as Ian could do it with the Silver Chip alone, but there was no need to refuse.

In the cockpit, the light gradually dimmed, leaving only three pairs of eyes in different colors flickering with glimmer.
In Ian’s eyes, the blue-green light shone even brighter, with silver halos swirling around him. For original chapters go to novel_fіre.net
Meanwhile, the still Dark Gold Colossus Dragon also opened its six dragon eyes, with deep crimson irises having silver glimmer like stars flowing within.
At this moment, yet another violent tremor resonated in the Domain of Void, leaving no need to think, it was definitely the aftermath of Yafada and Campari’s battle, not far, just in some surrounding Subspace Labyrinths.
Until now, the Exotic Species Research Institute was no longer important. For the Terra civilization now, the internal conflict and battle among the Fifth Energy Level within Canaan Moore, known as the ’Half-Moon’ upheaval, were the major events of the world.
And for Ian, it was the same...Campari was associated with the Dark Moon upheaval, perhaps as a divine retribution, now he had also become a protagonist betrayed by ’his own people’ in the Half-Moon upheaval.
Killing Campari was one of Ian’s objectives.
Although it’s just a Split Soul located in the Labyrinth, even though back then Sio was once manipulated by someone’s Split Soul, extracting his Dragon Soul and sealing it, undoubtedly Yafada and others had long prepared, able to impact, weaken, or even severely injure Campari’s main body through this Split Soul.
Now, Ian’s real purpose was only one.
That is the ’Glaring Star Dragon’s Divine Marrow’, ’Dragon Crystal Storage’ and ’Source of Dragon Blood’ located in the Dragon Bone Plaza!
"Everyone, let’s set off!"
Laughing heartily, the Prophet, after a fierce battle, together with his equally jubilant friends, activated the body of the True Dragon!
The next moment, the dark golden stream of light transformed into a phantasm that cut through the Domain of Void and Subspace, speeding toward the original source, the Dragon Bone Plaza!
