"Mr. Knight..."

"Stop talking, I understand."

Back on the battleship, looking at the ether dragon larvae swaying next to the fleet, Duanmu Huai sighed silently.

"I still want to say, isn't this really a demon that broke free from a seal?"

An decisively and ruthlessly complained, while Duanmu Huai rolled his eyes.

"How is it possible? Didn't you see it hatch from the egg with your own eyes?"

"That counts as an egg..."

Hearing Duanmu Huai's answer, the expressions of the other girls were also very subtle.

"In short, from today on, this is our pet, just raise it as a kitten or a puppy."

"I think my kitten is much cuter than that dragon."

Mary stroked the warm day fur cat beside her and whispered.

"Does it really not need to eat?"

Gu Leiya is still struggling with this question.

"I'm worried that it might eat the fleet when it's hungry..."

"It will eat stellar energy, so we don't need to worry about it. Of course, I've already told it that it won't touch the warships of the Inquisition."

"Are you really going to keep it, uncle?"

Naruse Mio also looked incredulous, looking at the ether dragon larva floating outside the fleet.

"Of course, otherwise why would I go to so much trouble to hatch it? If I don't want to keep it, wouldn't it be better to just use the dragon egg to make fried eggs for you?"

"Uh... Lord Duanmu, I don't think there's such a big pot... Although I do want to try it."

At this moment, Maria next to him added with a smile.

"By the way, will it really not attack us? Isn't Miss Xueli still studying the corpse of the ether dragon? What if it sees it... What if it goes crazy?"

Lummiel was more worried about other problems. After all, the corpse of the ether dragon was still floating in space, and Xueli took a research ship to study it. Xue Li was full of fighting spirit at this moment. Although she had been in the Tribunal for quite a while, she was mainly responsible for the research of local plants and animals most of the time. She had never encountered such an existence as the Ether Dragon, so she was naturally very excited. Now she plunged into it.

"It doesn't matter. The body of the Ether Dragon had been sent to another star field a long time ago, and it doesn't matter even if you see it. In fact, although it was hatched from the egg of the Ether Dragon, it actually has nothing to do with the Ether Dragon."

"Huh? Is that so?"

"That's it."

Duanmu Huai nodded. Duanmu Huai had never worried about Lumiel's problem. The reason was simple. The energy obtained by the hatching of this Ether Dragon larvae all came from itself, so for this Ether Dragon larvae, Duanmu Huai was its biological parent.

As for that Ether Dragon? An unknown monster.

"Don't worry, the habits of the ether dragon are not much different from those of ordinary dragons. On weekdays, it just eats and sleeps. When it's bored, it will find a place to play by itself. You don't have to worry too much."

"To be honest, I still can't admit that this is a dragon............"

Hearing Duanmu Huai's answer, Gu Leya's expression was very subtle. Although in many fantasy worlds, dragons are very large, generally speaking, even the largest dragons are only a hundred meters long.

But what the hell is this dragon that is more than ten kilometers long at birth?

It is not the same species as himself and others!

It doesn't mean that we are the same kind as this monster just because there is a dragon in it! !

Duanmu Huai pretended not to hear Gu Leya's complaints. Anyway, the ether dragon has been obtained. Whatever it is, it's useless, right?

After all, it has been hatched now, and it can't be used to cook poached eggs.

In addition to this ether dragon larva, Duanmu Huai also found a lot of good things in the dragon's nest this time. The most useful one in Duanmu Huai's opinion is the [Daedalus Seal], which is a thing sealed by a pentagonal octahedron, similar to a magic crystal prop, but this thing is not magic. Its function is to close all space channels within a certain range within a certain period of time, including star gates, wormholes and even subspace cracks.

And this range is determined by the amount of input power. If Duanmu Huai has that ability, it would be no problem to directly close the entire galaxy.

Unfortunately, he doesn't.

But at least it's no problem to close a few galaxies.

The advantage of this is that it directly cuts off the possibility of others jumping out, and the disadvantage is that you can't jump out, but it is still enough to deal with the city defense battle.

For example, when Duanmu Huai builds the ether phase engine, he can start this thing and close the surrounding space. In this way, those Chaos War Groups and Subspace Demons will not be able to rush over from all directions, and can only walk obediently... Then won't time be saved?

In addition, the second most useful relic is the transcriber that Brian dug up. Its effect is to copy the effects of other artifacts without consuming itself. In other words, the transcriber can be transformed into any kind of relic and exert its power. For example, Duanmu Huai can use the transcriber to copy the Daedalus Seal, and then he can open and activate the abilities of two Daedalus Seals at the same time. Well, no wonder the ether dragon is staring at this thing so hard. If Duanmu Huai knew about this thing, he would definitely watch it closely.

No wonder it was stolen. Who doesn't like this thing?

After killing the Aether Dragon, who showed up halfway, Duanmu Huai and others returned to Azeroth again. After all, there were still things to do here.

But it was almost over.

The progress of the evacuation of the expeditionary force was much faster than planned. The reason was very simple. With the end of Sargeras, the entire Burning Legion was now on the verge of collapse. In addition, many races within the Burning Legion were oppressed by Sargeras and became his subordinates. When Sargeras was still there, these people naturally did not dare to jump out, but as soon as Sargeras died, these people immediately raised the banner of rebellion.

The Burning Legion, which was now in a serious internal struggle, was too busy to care about others. Therefore, the expeditionary force also seized this opportunity to speed up the progress. Except for the fact that the Night Sentinels would kill a few Dreadlords at the Dark Portal every day, everything else was going smoothly.

Now the retreat has come to an end. Those who are stubborn and unwilling to leave... then don't leave. It seems that the Inquisition cares about them.

When Duanmu Huai arrived at the Dark Portal, the others had already been waiting there. Varian and the dwarf master craftsman Mekkatorque came in person. The dwarves, Brian, could not come because he had caused trouble. The old man was beaten up by his brother and was now locked up in Ironforge to reflect on his mistakes. So the dwarves did not send anyone this time.

Night elves... Hehe.

"It's been a while since I last saw you, Your Excellency the Inquisitor."

Seeing Duanmu Huai appear, Varian hurried forward to greet him.

"Hey, you look good?"

"Thanks to you."

Hearing Duanmu Huai's response, Varian smiled. With the return of the expeditionary force, Stormwind Kingdom became the biggest winner. The reason is simple. The last time the Alliance sent an expeditionary force deep into Outland, the seven human kingdoms were still there. But times have changed. After all these years of changes, only Stormwind Kingdom, Gilneas and Dalaran are still alive among the seven human kingdoms, and the other countries have completely collapsed in the attack of the Scourge.

This was obviously a huge blow to the soldiers of the Seven Kingdoms in the expeditionary force. After all, they did not expect that they would not even have a home after staying in the Outlands for so many decades... So they had to choose to settle in the Storm Kingdom.

Varian was naturally very welcome to the arrival of these soldiers. After all, the Storm Kingdom was in need of people, and these people had seen the world in the Outlands and fought for humanity until the last moment. They had no problem with loyalty or ability. It can be said that the Storm Kingdom absorbed almost all the talents and elites of the Seven Kingdoms in this wave, and made a lot of money.

You can tell how happy Varian is by looking at his mouth, and he probably wakes up with a smile in his dreams at night.

I guess it's like laughing in dreams at night.

As before, everyone exchanged a few polite words and then got on the shuttle to the battleship. Along the way, Varian and Mekkatorque curiously asked Duanmu Huai about the situation of the ether dragon. After all, the roar of the ether dragon was heard by the whole Azeroth, but everyone was confused and didn't know what happened. Later, Duanmu Huai sent someone to explain to them. They knew the cause and effect. However, they were also quite interested in the dragons outside Azeroth. After all, they didn't expect that there were dragons outside the world of Azeroth.

Duanmu Huai didn't refuse and told them about the ether dragon. When they learned that the size and strength of the ether dragon were almost the same as Sargeras, their faces changed drastically.

"Maybe I should tighten the restrictions on archaeological research in Storm Kingdom after I go back..."

Varian was also scared. According to Duanmu Huai, it was not certain who would win if the ether dragon and Sargeras really fought. Such a powerful existence, but it turned out that they were provoked by digging relics here? Fortunately, the Inquisition is here. If the Inquisition is not here, I am afraid that everyone in Azeroth will not even know why they died.

Of course, Duanmu Huai said that Brian was just unlucky. He dug the one he shouldn't have dug among so many ruins... This is fate.

"Will the judge issue an extermination order again this time?"

"Of course, but the method will be different."

"The method?"

"Yes."

Duanmu Huai nodded and walked forward.

"This time I will set off a big firework for you to see."

Then he spoke.
