Chapter 13 – Reverse Scales
For the next half hour, Ye Zhan practiced flying around. He stood on the bed and jumped down, flapping his wings so hard that he ended up fluttering to the ground many times.
Once proficient, he can fly at low altitudes at most, and occasionally tap the ground to jump a few meters.
After all, wings more than a meter long are still too small for his body. The mutation of his body would continue, and it would only be by this evening that he could grow a pair of wings that support flight.
Before that, he had to do two things well, one was to master flying, and the other was to keep others from noticing.
If he was lucky, he’d just have to fool the one who would bring him food.
Ye Zhan locked the door and waited patiently at the door until eight o’clock, and Feng Rao came on time to bring him breakfast. After finding that it couldn’t be opened, Feng Rao began to knock on the door, “Ye Zhan, are you there? Why did you lock the door?”
“I want to be alone for a while,” Ye Zhan said, “Doctor Feng, can you leave the food at the door?”
“Is something wrong?” Feng Rao said softly, “Don’t be afraid, let me come in and take a look, I can help you.”
“I want to be by myself.”
Feng Rao dutifully comforted him with a few more words, but he still couldn’t resist his insistence and put the food at the door.
“Thank you, Doctor Feng,” Ye Zhan said sincerely, leaning against the door, “I think I’ll be fine tomorrow, and I’ll have to trouble you during this time.”
“What’s with you being polite?” Feng Rao said with a smile, “Remember to eat even if you’re in a bad mood, you know?”
“Hmm.”
Listening to Feng Rao’s footsteps slowly moving away, Ye Zhan sighed, deceiving such a good person made his only remaining conscience a little uncomfortable.
He brought in the food, filled his stomach, and then piled up the wardrobe and other furniture in the doorway, and closed the door tightly.
While practicing low-altitude flying, Ye Zhan patiently waited for the night to come.

Qi Yuan took out his gun and fired it at the armor in the air, and the bullet hit the armor without making any sound or causing any damage as if the bullets had met a black hole. Even more bizarre is that the armor completely absorbs the momentum of the bullet and does not change the trajectory of the fall in the slightest, which means that the wearer can fully pick up the bomb on his body – as long as the user doesn’t care about his head.
Qi Yuan was a little regretful, he knew that he would need to add another helmet, but no matter how he imagined it, he felt that the final effect would look like a stocking pullover of someone robbing a bank, so he had to give up.
He caught the armor and pulled it hard with both hands, the armor had some elasticity, but it was not torn and deformed, one must know that he could tear a truck with his bare hands and even some mutant beasts. Finally, Qi Yuan took out a small potion bottle from his pocket and carefully dripped a drop of black liquid on it.
It was a deadly potion he carried with him, and it had the power to make all things die, it was used with effects like a highly corrosive acid. However, the armor remained unchanged, and it showed good water resistance, allowing black droplets to roll down the armor. The liquid fell on a silkworm cocoon on the ground, and the whole cocoon the size of a melon melted into a black and smelly liquid.
“It’s the hardest thing in the world,” the man in a black cloak said, “it’s indestructible.”
Accompanied by his divine words, the armor was endowed with a layer of spiritual brilliance, and it seemed to become the very concept of “solidity” as if the sword would bend if it met with it, the arrows would stagnate, and a warrior would be afraid to move forward in the face of this armor.
“Give it a name.”
“Hmm……” Qi Yuan thought for a moment, “Let’s call it ‘Reverse Scale’.”
“Okay,” Zu Xian nodded, “It’s up to you, give the payment.”
Qi Yuan didn’t talk nonsense, threw the armor to Fan Xiao, and pulled out another scale again, he became more unstable in a short period of time, and the short dragon horns on his head grew crookedly, almost piercing the hat he wore as his hands suddenly showed fine scales, which were curved like claws. He didn’t hesitate and immediately peeled off the second dragon scale from his chest.
At this time, Zu Xian squirmed closer, and lowered his head, as if trying to see the process of his peeling. She was too deeply depraved to hide her desires, and Qi Yuan could feel the greed she was trying to hide, spitting on herself along with her turbid breathing.
The moment he peeled off the dragon scales, a long slit suddenly opened in his furry chest, and tons of silk spat out from it in an instant!
Sure enough, it came!
Despite their vigilance and the fact that they moved backward rapidly, the surging silk still drowned the three of them.
“Be careful! Are you all right?!” Fan Xiao’s muffled voice came from the side, he had already fired, but the bullet was also trapped in the endless silk. At the same time, the sound of crawling sounded from all directions.
Fan Xiao took out a knife and tried to cut the silk, but he failed again.
“!These things are harder than Lao Tzu’s cock!”
“Don’t move, protect the priest,” Qi Yuan ordered briefly, “Prepare to retreat.”
The cracks in Zu Xian’s chest were still expanding, and the surging silk flooded the palace, indeed, as Fan Xiao said, they were more like hard steel wires, leaving a hole in the body if they were not careful. However, if you don’t struggle, you will soon be woven into a cocoon and suffocated to death.
Fan Xiao worked hard to pull the filament, and without hesitation, his whole body was covered with metallic color, no longer afraid of being cut, he found the man in a black cloak and encircled him in his arms with his beastly and strong body. However, the living filaments immediately changed their tactics and swarmed into his body, trying to plug his nose!
“I’m going to suffocate, I can’t breathe!” Fan Xiao roared with a red face.
Suddenly, he felt a gust of wind.
Then there was a “snort”, and his view suddenly brightened, only to see a sharp claw tearing the layers of silk, cutting the silk as easily as melons and vegetables. He saw the red eyes of their boss, and his expression was as fierce as a tyrannical killing god.
“Go up.”
Accompanied by Qi Yuan’s hoarse voice, Fan Xiao felt the wind rise under his feet. With the tacit understanding of years of fighting, he immediately took advantage of this gust of wind to leap high, and his strengthened body made him jump four meters high, holding the man in a black cloak with one hand, and the deformed claws were deeply inserted into the silk wall, crawling towards the hole above.
“Stay…… Scales! Give me! Give me!”
Zu Xian didn’t care about them running away at all, only staring at Qi Yuan alone, and her long insect tail swept by, crushing a black larva to death. Qi Yuan took advantage of the wind to leap, flashed this swift blow, and at the same time slashed down with his claws, leaving three deep openings in the tail of the worm, and the slurry inside gushed out like an explosion, and Zu Xian went even more crazy, her huge body rolled and twisted, the silk threads on her body pulled every corner of the palace as the silk palace was crumbling.
One step away from the exit of the hole, Fan Xiao was almost thrown down, and then he heard a soft shout in his ears.
“Light.”
The voice seemed to come from heaven far away from the hustle and bustle, distant and ethereal.
Fan Xiao suddenly felt that his body was fluttering, and with a little force, he jumped into the hole, and the outside was already densely packed with huge silkworm moths. The sky and the black clouds were overwhelming. Fan Xiao has experienced a hundred battles, and he can’t help but look at the place like dirt, “Holding a farewell party for Lao Tzu, it was no exaggeration!”
Seeing this, the man in a black cloak suddenly stretched out his hand and covered his ears hard.
Fan Xiao knew what was going to happen next, and he immediately opened his mouth wide and let out a shout.
His ears were immediately filled with his own voice, and nothing else could be heard. He saw the man in a black cloak say something, and the countless surging silkworm moths stiffened for a moment, and then crackled and fell like rain as if they had been harvested by the huge scythe of death.
There was a dead silence all around them.
Fan Xiao stopped roaring at this time, if he was unfortunate enough to hear that word just now, then his fate would be no different from these silkworm moths.
There was a buzzing roar in the sky, Qin Hang, who had been waiting nearby to answer, drove the fighter jet down, and Fan Xiao roared on the walkie-talkie, “Don’t come down, it’s going to collapse!”
So Qin Hang lowered his plane, dropped the soft ladder, and asked on the walkie-talkie, “What about the boss?”
At this moment, there was chaos below, and nothing could be seen clearly, Fan Xiao had just climbed the soft ladder with their priest, the palace full of bones under his feet, and the giant silkworms that had regathered above collapsed, collapsing into a mountain that was still surging, and no one knew what was happening inside.
“Hold on!” Qin Hang immediately drove the fighter jet and dived downward, trying to rescue, he didn’t dare to fire rashly, because Qi Yuan was still inside.
Suddenly, he heard a loud sound of “boom-“, and a huge figure tumbled out of the collapsed silk nest, it was the crazed and violent Zu Xian!
The tail of the worm swept by, all the trees that were hugging each other collapsed, and countless threads of silk were spewing out from all parts of the body, and the power displayed was terrifying. At this moment, Qi Yuan still did not appear, as if he was trapped in the silk nest.
Fan Xiao became anxious, but he soon realized that Zu Xian was not fighting, but fleeing!
The pale yellow silkworm moth wings behind her expanded rapidly, and she actually took off flat with her bloated body, and the long insect tail dragged underneath, and Fan Xiao could see that it was covered with terrible scars.
“Don’t let her run away!” Fan Xiao immediately shouted.
Needless to say, Qin Hang had already opened fire on Zu Xian, but Zu Xian’s countless hands twisted in front of her chest, pulling the thread and weaving it into a piece of soft armor in an instant, which was completely unaffected by the artillery fire. She was even more enraged, she reversed direction, and with a body several times larger, she was about to pounce on the fighter jet!
Suddenly, a terrible wind gathered in the sky, swept into a terrible storm, and struck her with a slap on her head, knocking her to the ground!
Her wings were torn to pieces by the wind, and the pale yellow dust fluttered all over the sky, and she fell to the ground, her hideous expression became full of extreme pain, and she could no longer stand upright, countless hands moved, crawling on the ground with difficulty.
At this time, Fan Xiao saw that Qi Yuan walked out of the collapsed palace unhurriedly, his body was already half-dragonized, black scales covered his skin, and a dragon tail behind him was flicking it impatiently.
“Still gonna run?”
OMG… a dragon and a little bird…. flying together :3333333
