Twenty days passed in the blink of an eye.
Dean stayed in the village all day. In addition to exercising, he ate, drank and rested. There was very little entertainment here. Most people's habit was to eat and sleep. After all, sleep was the most energy-conserving thing. Parents supported their children to do the most.
But such a phenomenon was undoubtedly a slow death.
Since the end of the fish feast, Dean had not left the village. Priley and others had looked for the great priest several times, but the answer they got was that it was not suitable for hunting, which made them quite disappointed. After all, it was not easy for them to learn Dean's fast fishing method. But after more than twenty days, they didn't have the opportunity to go again. Such a long interval was rarely seen in the past.
Fortunately, there were still a lot of fish left after the fish feast. It was enough to sustain them for one or two months. After all, they had other sundries to eat.
Dean wasn't anxious and waited quietly. He could guess the great priest's thoughts. She was worried that his relationship with the villagers would be too close and threaten her existence.
Soon, it would be the day when the Earth Dragon Cave would open. Dean felt that it was time to meet the high priest again. In the past 20 days, the high priest hadn't taken the initiative to find him, and he also hadn't taken the initiative to find the high priest. Although they hadn't met, but Dean could roughly guess her thoughts. Now it was time to talk face to face.
He came to the small square in the center of the village. He looked at the metal ball that was fishing in mid-air. Every time he saw it there was a kind of amazing feeling. The contrast with the rough rock houses around it was very clear. Dean said to the general in front of the stairs: "I want to see the great priest. Trouble me to inform her."
The general looked at Dean indifferently. He went up the stairs and whispered in front of the cabin door.
There was a light sound from the cabin. The general understood and came in front of Dean: "Please."
Dean nodded slightly. This time he didn't bring the Demon Hunting Tool, so naturally he didn't need to disarm himself. He stepped on the stairs and came to the cabin door. The cabin door slowly opened. It was still luxurious and bright inside.
Dean went in and saw Amelie who was standing in front of the curtain.
"Mr. Dean, how are you living here?" Amelie looked at Dean with a smile.
Dudian indifferently said: "The environment here is average, but the people are good."
"Mr. Dean really knows how to talk. Of course, our place can't compare to the Divine Wall you live in." Amelie chuckled.
Dean glanced at her and looked at the great priest: "Greetings great priest."
"Mr. Du, you don't have to be so polite." The Great Priest smiled.
Dean stared at the great priest's eyes: "Great priest, I came here today because I have something to ask of you. The Earth Dragon Cave will open soon. I'm quite curious about the Earth Dragon Cave. I want to go in and talk about it. I hope the great priest will allow me to do so."
The smile in the Great Priest's eyes slowly faded. "Mr. Dean, what do you mean?"
"There's no overtone. That's what I mean." Dean looked at her.
The Great Divine Priest frowned and said, "Mister Du, are you here for the Earth Dragon Cave?"
"Great Priest, I know nothing about the Earth Dragon Cave. I heard from the villagers that the Wild Worm can enhance one's strength. Who doesn't want to get such a thing? Is there anything more attractive than power in this world? "Dean said calmly.
The Grand Priest stared at him and said softly, "Could it be that your lover is not as attractive as your power?"
Dean replied: "She is priceless and can't be measured by anything. Strength can be pursued. It's a vulgar thing."
"What a vulgar thing." The Great Priest sneered: "You finally couldn't stand it after more than twenty days?"
Dean quietly looked at her: "I just want to see if the Wild Worm is useful to me. If the great priest feels embarrassed then forget it. I've been here for a long time. If you don't have a way to restore my lover then I won't continue to waste time here. Goodbye."
The Great Priest and Amelie were startled. They didn't expect Dean to leave so quickly.
Amelie quickly said: "Wait."
Dean was relieved to see her timely reply. He intended to stay for a while and wait for them to persuade him to stay. If they didn't then it would be embarrassing. Fortunately, the situation was as he wished.
"What?" Dean looked at her.
Amelie turned to look at the great priest behind the curtain. The great priest frowned slightly. After a moment of silence, he said: "Mr. Dean, you have been here for so long. It is a bit unreasonable for you to leave just like that. What if your companions are attracted after you leave? Wouldn't that put us in danger?"
Dean indifferently smiled. There was a hint of mockery in his tone: "Great Priest, according to what you said, I can't stay or leave?"
The Great Priest's eyes lit up: "It's not impossible if you want to enter the Earth Dragon Cave. But I have a condition."
"Say it." Dean generously said. It seemed that he was waiting for her to speak.
His attitude made the Great Priest uncomfortable. She said: "Mr. Dean is from the God's Wall. I have some interest in the God's Wall. I hope that Mr. Dean can tell me."
Dean indifferently said: "Of course, no problem."
The great priest frowned as she saw Dean agree so readily. She felt uneasy in her heart. But before she could speak, she heard Dean say: "Does the great priest want to migrate the people here to God's Wall?"
His words were like a thunderclap that exploded in the Great Priest's ears.
The Grand Priest and Amelie were shocked as they stared at Dean in a daze.
Dean knew that his guess was correct as he saw Amelie's change in expression. His heart was full of confidence.
"Mr. Dean, you are right." The great priest quickly calmed down and slowly said, "We have lived here for hundreds of years. Although the resources are poor, it is still safe. If we move to another place, the journey will be long and we will suffer heavy casualties. You don't have to worry, we have no interest in moving to the God Wall. We just want to know how many powerhouses like you exist in the outside world."
Dean faintly smiled. If it was an average person, he would really believe these words, but he had already seen through the situation here. The resources here were more than barren. The severe radiation had sterilized a large number of men who went out to hunt. As the number of women decreased, the number of children would also decrease. Sooner or later they would die out. It must be known that the speed of human reproduction was not slow. After hundreds of years of reproduction, there were still less than a thousand people left. Especially with the distorted view of marriage here, the population was still unable to increase. It could be seen how fast the speed of extinction was.
In his opinion, the population here would shrink by more than half in less than thirty years. In another fifty years it was estimated that they would face extinction. It would be good if more than a dozen people survived.
It was impossible for them to not predict such a situation. A safe living environment was more important than anything else. Although this place was safe but the serious radiation infiltration was irresistible.
"In the twenty days I've lived here, ever since I learned from Priley that the Earthwyrm Cave will open in a month, I've wanted to go take a look. That's why I've insisted on staying here." Dean seemed to be talking about insignificant things. He said lightly: "When I have free time, I think that I want to go to the Earth Dragon Cave to have a look. So, why did you let an outsider stay here? What's the purpose of it? Now I probably know the answer. "
