I Have a God Simulator

Pasha stood in the desert before two and a half dragon corpses.

It was a slight shame that parts of the Red Dragon Puxi’s body had been consumed in experiments by the White Castle. Only its head and upper torso were relatively intact, which was why it only counted as half.

Pasha first began to perceive the half-bodied Red Dragon.

Following Cancong’s instructions, it dripped its Dragon Blood onto the Dragon Corpse, then pressed its head against the Red Dragon’s.

Luh Yao watched as a cloud-like image slowly floated out from the Red Dragon’s corpse.

The cloud expanded, and a freeze-frame image gradually took shape within it.

The image showed a Red Dragon in flight. The dragon’s form was greatly simplified, but it was still recognizable.

The Red Dragon flew on and on, then it spotted a white bird that was much smaller than itself. A red heart icon appeared over the Red Dragon’s head; it seemed quite taken with the other creature.

Puxi flew over, and a jumble of garbled symbols appeared above its head, as if it were trying to talk to the white bird.

The white bird turned and flew away, ignoring it completely.

Then, a teary-eyed emoji appeared over Puxi’s head. It flew all the way back and jabbered at a large Red Dragon for a while, which made the big dragon roar with laughter.

The scene ended there, then it rewound to the first encounter with the white bird and repeated endlessly.

Pasha said, "The Red Dragon’s memory is completely filled with that bird. There’s nothing else."

Cancong, who was standing nearby, explained, "The memories left in Dragon Remains are usually the parts that left the deepest impression on the deceased dragon. Judging by its Body Type, this Red Dragon had probably only undergone its second awakening. Its most profound memory was meeting this bird."

Luh Yao understood.

’The Red Dragon Puxi couldn’t forget the white bird it fancied. The more unattainable it was, the deeper the impression it left.’

’Next.’

Pasha dripped its blood onto the Blue Dragon and pressed their heads together.

A cloud also floated out from the withered body of the Blue Dragon, Tiris.

Within the cloud was a pitch-black world. The Blue Dragon was curled up, but it slowly stood, spread its wings, and the black world instantly shattered, making the surroundings much brighter.

After the black shell fell away, it revealed a larger, lead-gray world. The Blue Dragon charged about, breaking through this second layer and into a world with a low, blue sky.

It soared into the sky, burst through the azure dome, and flew into a giant, light-blue bubble.

Inside the bubble, the Blue Dragon struggled with all its might.

The bubble contracted, growing tighter and tighter until it sealed the Dragon in a blue film, like a vacuum-compression bag.

The Blue Dragon writhed frantically.

When it finally tore through the bubble’s film and emerged, it was on its last breath and soon went still.

The memory ended there and jumped back to the initial scene.

Regarding the Blue Dragon’s past, Pasha commented, "This Dragon doesn’t look young, but I didn’t expect it to be so reckless. It really went all out, and it looks like it played itself to death..."

Snowman Jimmy added from the side, "Why did it have to play such a dangerous game? Isn’t it better to build snowmen and have snowball fights?"

"Uncle Jimmy’s right."

Pasha chimed in, "I think it’s because the Blue Dragon was all alone. It had no one to play with, so it had to play these kinds of games by itself."

The Snowman and the Juvenile Dragon both lamented, "How pitiful..."

"That’s not it!"

A small Flame icon appeared over Cancong’s head as it explained on the Blue Dragon’s behalf, "This memory is of the Blue Dragon Tiris’s experience undergoing its Fourth Awakening."

"Its Fourth Awakening was extremely difficult. It was so severely injured that it died."

"And in order to use the Dragon Race’s special Endless Wail, one must have completed the Fourth Awakening."

Pasha and the Snowman fell silent.

Luh Yao clicked on Cancong to learn more.

"Lord God, the Trait known as Endless Wail has specific conditions to be used. It doesn’t belong to any single member of the Dragon Race, but is rather a resonance between the Exotic Object, the Dragon Tomb, and the Dragon Race’s bloodline."

This Longsu Zhucong said, "The Dragon Tomb is an Exotic Object that exists between the Void Cosmos and the Real Cosmos. It has an incredibly close connection to the Dragon Residence; it is more than just a graveyard for past generations of the Dragon Race."

"The Dragon Tomb orbits the Dragon Residence in a perpetual cycle. Sometimes it appears in the Real Cosmos, other times it enters the Void Cosmos. It helps the Dragon Race remain calm and peaceful, making it vital for the stability and development of the Dragon Residence."

"One theory suggests that the very first dragons were born from the Dragon Tomb, which is why the relationship between the Dragon Race and the Dragon Tomb is so unique. When members of the Dragon Race are near death, they instinctively seek to enter the Dragon Tomb."

"The Dragon Tomb has many strange properties, and Endless Wail is one of them."

Cancong explained, "After completing the Fourth Awakening, a dragon comprehends Endless Wail from the Dragon Tomb’s resonance. The condition for its use is being on the verge of death, and the wail’s power is limited to protecting one’s own body and dignity."

"The power of the wail gradually fades. After many Eras have passed, the Dragon’s corpse will decay, leaving only bones. At that point, the danger is gone."

"However, if the wail is still active and someone tries to touch or even desecrate the Dragon Race’s corpse, it will trigger the effect. This is a Curse on a fundamental level. Even Titled Deities will be severely injured if targeted by the wail."

According to Cancong’s description, the Dragon Tomb was an Exotic Object existing between life and death. It drifted between the Void Cosmos and the Real Cosmos, bestowing blessings and protection upon all members of the Dragon Race who were on the verge of death, guiding them to their Return Home.

’Getting hit by the Endless Wail... that was what happened to the Cloud Guest.’

Luh Yao looked at the last Dragon Corpse.

Pasha went to the Green Dragon’s head and performed the blood touch.

A cloud of memory also rose from Antonios’s dragon head.

In the memory, a dialogue box filled with densely packed, garbled text appeared above the simplified form of the Green Dragon.

Suddenly, the Green Dragon’s body split in two down the middle.

The left and right halves gradually regenerated, becoming two identical Green Dragons.

The difference was that the Green Dragon on the left was breathing Dragon Breath with a sinister gaze, while the one on the right was curled up, looking timid and cowardly.

Cancong said admiringly, "This is Split in Two, a very powerful High-Level Magic within Dragon Language Magic. Incredible. To have mastered it after only awakening three times... this Green Dragon’s talent for Magic is extremely high."

Luh Yao couldn’t help but glance at Pasha.

’A pity the dragon he raised was naturally unskilled in Magic.’

A thought bubble appeared above the Dark Sun Dragon’s head: "So what if its talent is high... To deal with a guy like that, I’d just need ten Purple Rose Flower Boats to take it down easily."

Luh Yao thought, ’You really know how to keep up with the times.’

He continued watching the memory cloud.

After the Green Dragon split in two, the Evil Dragon brutally attacked the weaker one. The two dragons eventually merged back into one, but they couldn’t return to their original state. The Green Dragon’s body kept splitting in half until it finally collapsed to the ground in a state of constant, failing repair.

The scene ended.

"A pity."

A sighing emoji appeared above Cancong’s head. "Split in Two is an extremely complex and difficult Dragon Language Magic. You have to split yourself into two distinct individuals, separating both personality and abilities. Then you must merge them back into one to complete the spell."

"If you succeed, you can then operate with two separate bodies and forms."

Failure and accidents when performing High-Level Dragon Language Magic are usually accompanied by serious injury or even death.

Luh Yao glanced over the two and a half Dragon Corpses.

According to Cancong’s judgment, all three were from the Abnormal Blood Dragon Clan. Aside from the Red Dragon, whose cause of death was unknown, the other two dragons had died due to perilous situations of their own making.

Higher-level awakenings and the casting of High-Level Dragon Language Magic all carried immense risks.

Luh Yao gained a new understanding of the Dragon Race. ’This group already has an extremely low birth rate, and they frequently engage in high-risk activities on top of that. No wonder the number of dragons is dwindling.’

Cancong began to guide Pasha on how to draw out the power within the Dragon Corpses.

"The method is very simple."

It said, "First, silently offer your condolences and gratitude in your heart."

"Then, eat them."

A question mark appeared over Pasha’s head. "Eat our own kind? That’s barbaric."

Snowman Jimmy agreed, "Exactly."

"..."

Cancong had no choice but to stress again that this was a custom of the Dragon Race.

If a dragon cannot return to the Dragon Tomb, then rather than letting the corpse of a kinsman wander, decay naturally through the changing Eras, or be devoured, destroyed, and turned into a commodity by other creatures, the greater sign of respect is for their own kind to consume the body and integrate its power.

A dragon’s shell contains immense power; it is the grand result of constant transformation by Dragon Blood and Magic.

However, the usually obedient Pasha was firmly against it.

"Teacher Cancong, I don’t need to rely on cannibalism to awaken."

The Dark Sun Dragon spread its wings and said proudly, "I am a Dragon, and I am also a member of the Yao Race. In the Yao Race, even the lowly Bully Locusts no longer practice cannibalism."

"Uncle Jimmy taught me not to take things from the weak. If you want something, go challenge the strong for their treasures!"

"This doesn’t mean I think I’m so great. It means that I want power, and I will obtain it my own way."

"Because I am a follower of Yao God, and I am the first Dragon of the Yao Race!"

A smiling face appeared on the Snowman’s head as it swayed happily from side to side. "Well said, Pasha! We’re going to take the treasures of the strong!"

Cancong was speechless.

Luh Yao, too, was a little moved.

’Although a lot of what Jimmy taught was a bit skewed, that insane temperament of the Snowman—always ready to throw a punch at the strong—was already starting to show in Pasha.’

’A Dragon of the Yao Race should have this kind of spirit.’

’Excellent. Very spirited!’

Luh Yao summoned the Blood Knight, continuing to use the traditional method to ramp up Pasha’s training.

The moment the Blood Knight appeared, the body of the once-aspirational Dark Sun Dragon began to tremble, its wings drooping and clamping shut behind it.

"Teacher Blood Knight, can we maybe do this another day..."

Its reply was a steel-armored fist.

...

After being beaten into a daze, Pasha finally began its second awakening. Its entire body curled up, resembling a solidified block of paraffin wax.

Luh Yao waited for about ten minutes until the molting was complete.

Having completed its second awakening, Pasha had grown a size larger. Its level had reached LV41, and its Life Value had shot up to over 8,000.

It had also gained a new ability.

...

Strong Fate: Constantly being on the verge of death has led to a completely new understanding of life, granting large bonuses to life and defense.

...

’The Blood Knight comprehended this ability in the High Furnace World, and Pasha evolved this Trait during its special training with the Blood Knight. You could say it was passed down from master to disciple.’

As Pasha regained some of its senses, Cancong asked eagerly, "Can you sense a general direction? The Dragon Residence is too far from the Crawling Area, but there are many Tunnel Worlds around here. If we can find one, we’ll have a way."

"..."

Pasha concentrated for a moment, then a spinning dial resembling a Compass appeared above its head. "Found it!"

A prompt popped up on the simulator.

[Pasha has obtained the coordinate system for the Dragon Residence.]

[The Yao Race now possesses the ability to record coordinates in World-Dimension Space. The spatial coordinate view is now officially enabled.]

Luh Yao was delighted. ’This is exactly what I wanted.’

’A Dragon-Shaped Space Navigation Instrument.’
