I will eventually become a divine being through accumulating constantly

Xue Jing laughed and said casually, "I'm afraid you don't know, I also have a lot of male fans. According to your theory, I wouldn't want to receive a bunch of dick pics."

The Mountain Demon was stunned for a moment and said, "Eh... that's true too."

Void Blade, with his back to Xue Jing, crouched slightly and opened the built-in fridge in the cockpit. He took out a canned beverage and tossed it to Xue Jing.

Xue Jing caught the beverage in his hand and glanced at the packaging. It read 'Xinsha Soda'.

He had never seen this drink before.

Void Blade spoke, "This beverage is produced by a company in Border City no. 069; it's very popular with the hunters at the Intersecting Boundaries. Give it a try."

Xue Jing raised an eyebrow.

Since the Eternal Night war, Zhuxia's administrative division had been separated into nine large urban circles, and each circle was divided into three levels.

From the inside out, they are the Inner Ring, the Outer Ring, and the Border.

Border City is located at the very outskirts of the urban circle. It's called a city, but in reality, it's more like a fortress defense line that holds off the dangerous creatures from the Intersecting Boundaries.

This is why, despite the appearance of so many exceptional occurrences in this world, the Inner Ring and Outer Ring seem so peaceful.

Because the danger... is mostly kept beyond the Border City defenses.

All the Border Cities don't have actual names, only numbers—since they can be destroyed at any moment, there is no need to name a place that might not exist anymore.

And yet, someone had started a beverage company in such a place?

Xue Jing twisted the pull ring on top of the can, which made a 'hiss' sound, then he took a small sip of the soda.

The moment it hit his tongue, a spicy sensation exploded in his mouth that, together with the unique tingle of carbonated soda, spread from his throat throughout his body.

"Quite a novel taste," Xue Jing commented.

This thing, ordinary people definitely couldn't handle it.

Too spicy.

But for him, the level of stimulation was just perfect.

Void Blade smiled and said, "Border City no. 069 is a legendary Border City of the Fifth Urban Circle, which has existed for over a hundred years."

"Whenever a Border City is destroyed, the numbering for the new one advances, and currently, the latest Border City in the Fifth Urban Circle is in the four hundreds."

"Of all the Border Cities numbered below two hundred, only no. 069 still stands undefeated."

Xue Jing nodded, suddenly realizing, "So that's how it is."

No wonder a beverage company appeared... If it had been around for over a hundred years, the facilities within this Border City must not be much different from a normal city.

"By the way, Captain Void Blade," Xue Jing looked at the inconspicuous Void Blade and said:

"What's with this airplane? It's less of an airplane and more like an alien UFO."

Before Void Blade could reply, the Mountain Demon, with arms crossed and looking smug, interjected:

"You haven't seen this before, right? This is the 'Dragon Core Machine'."

Xue Jing: "Oh?"

"The power source of this aircraft is a dragon breed's core organ," the Mountain Demon explained.

"As you saw just now, the takeoff and landing of this aircraft are extremely free. It doesn't need to taxi to create lift, and it can stop its inertia in mid-air without any external aids."

"That's because its flight is based on the 'Anti-Gravity Biological Field' generated by the dragon breed's core."

"How about that, impressive, huh?"

Void Blade slapped him on the head, "It's not like you built it, what's there to brag about."

Mountain Demon: "..."

"There are many advantages to the Dragon Core Machine, but the biggest one is—it's currently the only aircraft guaranteed to fly safely at high altitudes," Void Blade said.

She looked out the window, her eyes lighting up as she said, "Oh? The timing is perfect, take a look."

Xue Jing followed the direction she was pointing.

Outside the round porthole, amidst the clouds, was a... dragon?

Xue Jing's eyes widened slightly.

There was a creature with two meaty wings on its back, its body covered in scales, resembling the flying dragons of legend.

It was roughly five or six meters in length, with most of its scales being red in color, while the ones on its belly were light yellow. Brown manes grew all over its neck, and it had only two hind legs with no front claws.

"Dragon Breed?" Xue Jing's eyes narrowed slightly.

Captain Void Blade nodded, "Exactly, it is a Dragon Breed."

"Ever since the demise of God and the emergence of the Intersecting Boundaries, countless Otherworld creatures have entered our world. Over two hundred years of adaptation, land-dwelling species, sea-dwelling species, and sky-dwelling species have all gradually formed their own ecological circles."

The Dragon Breed outside the window moved in a different direction than the airplane, and was already growing distant.

Captain Void Blade continued, "—However, more than thirty years ago, the vast majority of sky-dwelling species went extinct."

Being unfamiliar with this rare knowledge, Xue Jing listened intently and curiously asked, "Why?"

"Because of the Dragon Breed," Captain Void Blade said.

"An enormous number of Dragon Breed appeared suddenly and within just a few years, they hunted most of the sky-dwelling species to near extinction."

"Dragon Breeds are known as the kings of sky-dwelling species. Although very strong, their numbers were few and they weren't supposed to impact the ecological circles of sky-dwellers."

"But, over thirty years ago, a 'super organism' level Dragon Breed descended upon our world."

Xue Jing raised his hand, "Wait, what's a 'super organism'?"

Captain Void Blade, already accustomed to Xue Jing's 'lack of common knowledge', began to explain:

"Simply put, it's a creature with a danger level evaluation above 10."

"Level 10?" Xue Jing blinked.

The most dangerous creature he knew of was the Heavenly Lodge Insect Mother that birthed Cockroach Monsters, which could reach an evaluation of 6.2 and had the capability to destroy a city.

And the danger level evaluation increased exponentially, with every 0.1 increase equating to 1.414 times the previous level.

A danger level of 10 would mean... Xue Jing did some mental arithmetic and estimated it to be—about six million times that of the Heavenly Lodge Insect Mother.

Xue Jing gasped.

Although it was 'six million times more dangerous' rather than 'six million times more powerful', it was still frightening.

"A super organism possesses the capability to destroy the world," Captain Void Blade said.

"The 'Super Dragon Breed' that descended over thirty years ago, we named it—Dragon Mother."

"It possesses one exceedingly simple ability," Captain Void Blade continued slowly: "Procreation."

Xue Jing's eyebrows furrowed slightly: "Procreation? The kind that involves giving birth to children?"

Captain Void Blade nodded, "Exactly."

"Its ability is similar to that of the Heavenly Lodge Insect Mother, but on a completely different scale."

"Any simple ability, if scaled up sufficiently, becomes a catastrophic disaster."

"The Dragon Mother can continuously bring forth Dragon Breeds from thin air, by the 'second', and it was precisely this that caused the Dragon Breed to overflow, leading to the extinction of the majority of sky-dwelling species."

"—It is also the reason why we humans cannot fly in airplanes; the sky belongs to the dragons, and anything flying thousands of meters above the ground can be attacked by a Dragon Breed at any moment."

Captain Void Blade stamped on the cabin floor.

"Only this Dragon Core Machine, equipped with a 'Biological Field', can blend in and make the other Dragon Breeds mistake this plane for a dragon, thereby avoiding attacks."

"Currently, countries around the world organize large-scale 'Dragon Extermination Operations' periodically, otherwise, Dragon Breeds would soon start to overflow to the extent that they would sweep not just the skies but also the land."

After thinking for a moment, Xue Jing asked, "Aren't the materials from the Dragon Breeds quite valuable? In a sense, isn't that also a good thing?"

Captain Void Blade shook her head, "If only that were the case… However, the 'Dragon Breeds' produced by the Dragon Mother turn to dust and disappear upon death, leaving nothing behind."

Xue Jing said in confusion, "Then doesn't the existence of the Dragon Mother simply pose a pure nuisance? Why not just kill it?"

"It's because it cannot be done," Captain Void Blade crossed her arms and sat down on the chair.

"In fact, top-tier powerhouses went to kill or capture it when the Dragon Mother was first discovered."

"However... it cannot be done," she said.

Captain Void Blade pointed a finger upwards.

"It's located in space, more than ten thousand kilometers from Earth, orbiting the Earth Star like a satellite."

"Moreover, when it was just discovered, it was already surrounded by—a million-strong dragon horde!"
