"You!" Amelia felt that she was going to explode. She had never met a person who made her so angry.
Dean leaned against Aisha and sat down, silently calculating the next way out. Now he was in a deadlock. From this moment on, before entering the Earth Dragon Cave, and after leaving the Earth Dragon Cave, he would face ambushes and traps at any time. He could not relax for even a moment.
In the blink of an eye, the night came. Amelia's stomach growled: "I want to eat."
"Endure it and wait for them to bring it to you." Dean bit the roasted blue fish in his hand and slowly chewed it.
Amelia gritted her teeth: "Don't you have food?"
"This is mine." Dean frowned as he felt that she was a bit noisy.
Amelia was more annoyed as she saw Dean's disgusted expression. But she knew that getting food from Dean was tantamount to a fool's dream. She was a goddess so she gritted her teeth and endured.
At night, a Desolate General knocked on the door and delivered food and a book.
"This is what the great priest told me to give to you." General Huang put down the things: "Your highness, this is your dinner tonight."
Dean nodded slightly. After Huang left, he took the book and looked through it. However, Amelie quickly opened the stone basket and saw a few plates of exquisite meat dishes, exuding a tempting aroma.
Amelia's eyes lit up as she looked at Dean: "Do you want to eat? This is much better than your broken fish. If you want to eat then beg me and maybe I can give you a taste." She deliberately fanned the fragrance towards Dean.
Dean didn't raise his head: "Don't be long-winded. Go to bed early."
Amelia sneered: "What? Are you worried that the food is poisonous? Coward! "
Whoosh! Just as she finished speaking, she felt her vision blur. Then, the stone plate in her hand disappeared and fell to the ground.
"I don't want to eat but you can't eat either. Don't mess with me." Dean still didn't raise his head as he said. It seemed that the food had nothing to do with him.
Amelia was slightly stunned as she looked at the food that was spilled on the ground. She wanted to pick it up but didn't. She fiercely stared at Dean: "Wait till you fall into my hands then I will make you beg for death!"
She no longer paid attention to Dean as she held the remaining plates of food and ate with relish.
Dean was gradually attracted by the contents of the book. It was about the Earth Dragon Cave, including the date of the Earth Dragon Cave, the reason, as well as the appearance and characteristics of the Wasteland worms inside.
"The opening date of the Earth Dragon Cave isn't a special day. It's just to restrict the villagers from entering the cave at will. It's to protect the worm and the villagers."
"Worm likes blood? How can there be blood in the cave? "
"The worm in the outer layer of the Earth Dragon Cave is relatively weak and the number is sparse. The deeper you go, the denser they are. The worm's strength is determined by the size. The bigger the worm, the stronger it is. There are some special cases. Although they are small in size, they are still very powerful. Such special cases can be distinguished by the color of the antennae. Yellow antennae are weaker and red antennae are stronger …"
Dean carefully looked at the book. Although it introduced a lot of useful information, it seemed that some key things were not explained. For example, what was the deepest part of the Earth Dragon Cave? Why would the worm live in the Earth Dragon Cave? Where did the worm come from? Why was the Earth Dragon Cave called the Earth Dragon Cave? Could it be that there was an Earth Dragon hidden inside?
Dean didn't get the answer to the questions in the book so he could only ask Amelia.
"The deepest part of the Earth Dragon Cave? I don't know. Anyway, there must be a lot of worm. Do you want to go to the deepest part? Don't court death. "Amelia unceremoniously hit Dean.
"If you don't answer well then you may not be able to eat for the next few days." Dean calmly said.
Amelia stared at him. Don't you dare! But thinking about it, Dean really dared to do so. She quickly compromised: "In fact I don't know. I haven't been a goddess for a long time. There are a lot of things that I haven't learned yet. You can ask the great priest."
Dean stared at her: "Fourteen or fifteen years old and you don't even understand these things. Do you think I'm retarded or do you think you are retarded?"
"You, how can you talk like that!" Amelia was angry.
Dean looked at her and took back his eyes: "Forget it. Anyway, we will know when we get there."
Amelia was surprised: "Do you really want to go to the deepest part?"
Dean turned around and ignored her.
Amelia came in front of Dean and said in a serious tone: "I advise you not to court death. If you want to die then don't take me with you. Don't you want to verify whether the worm can enhance your strength? Why don't you catch a few small ones and eat them? Why go to such a deep place and take the risk? If we provoke the worm swarm then both of us will be eaten! "
Dean turned again: "I have a sense of propriety. Shut up and go to sleep."
"You!" Amelia gritted her teeth in anger.
Time passed quickly. In the blink of an eye it was time for the dragon cave to open.
Dean had read in the book that the opening day of the dragon cave wasn't a special day. He could ask the great priest to open the cave for him in advance. It would save a lot of unnecessary trouble. But he wasn't sure if the information in the book was true or false. In case it was deliberately tempting him to do so then he would fall into a trap. So to be cautious he went in with the other villagers.
"I can finally see the sunlight outside." Amelie walked out of the house and stretched herself comfortably.
During this time, she and Dean had been staying in the house, not even going out of the door. It was almost suffocating.
"Sunshine? The light is more like it. " Dean said as he held Aisha's hand and put the other hand on Amelia's shoulder: "Don't play tricks. Don't ask for trouble."
Amelia felt awkward as Dean put his hand on her shoulder. She rolled her eyes but was too lazy to respond. She was used to Dean's cynicism these days.
It didn't take long for two wilderness generals to come in front of them: "Your highness, the great priest has asked you to come over."
"Let's go." Amelia said indifferently. She restored the noble temperament of the goddess.
The two generals frowned as they looked at Dean's hand on her shoulder. They didn't say anything as they slightly bent down and led the way.
The dragon cave was located on the most remote hillside on the west side of the village. There were wooden stakes outside the cave. Each stake was connected to a rope which sealed the place. No one would come here on weekdays as it was regarded as a forbidden area. But today it was the most lively place.
The open space outside the hillside was full of people when Dean and the goddess arrived. More than 90% of the villagers had come here to watch.
"It's the goddess. The goddess has come."
"I heard that the goddess has been teaching the outsider for the past few days."
"I hope the outsider can understand the teachings of the goddess and be a good person."
"Get out of the way."
Dean and Amelia's arrival attracted the attention of the crowd. The crowd immediately separated to make a path for Dean and Amelia to pass. Dean also put down his hand from her shoulder. Before coming here, he had whispered to her that if she played tricks, everyone present would be buried with her.
Amelia naturally didn't dare to risk escape in such a chaotic place. She knew that she wasn't Dean's opponent. If she angered Dean then he would indiscriminately kill the innocent villagers. That would be a great loss.
"Benefactor!" Priley called out loudly from within the crowd.
Dean nodded slightly as he saw Priley.
Priley smiled as he saw the eyes of the crowd. He was quite proud of himself as he smiled.
The villagers calmed down as Dean led Amelia and Aisha to the front of the crowd. But they were still whispering to each other. Other people who participated in the dragon cave frequently looked at Dean and Amelia.
