Chapter 935 - 458: Red Earth Land (Part 3)

It’s not that it looked down on this group of humans; given their strength, even if they wanted to report or contact other Demon Tribes, it’s unlikely they could do so.

Moreover, if they appeared in the sight of demons, they might be consumed like lambs delivered to the door, wouldn’t they?

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

The unconscious aura around Hephaestus was truly terrifying.

As it gradually neared this group of humans, their bodies remained motionless.

As if firmly controlled, they lost control over their bodies.

Just when they feared they would be eaten by this Giant Dragon...

"Boom!"

Hephaestus’s dragon foot landed between the gaps in the crowd, then stepped over their heads.

Ignoring everyone, it continued into the depths of the cave with Gauss.

Only after it left did the people regain their ability to move.

"Plop!"

Most people sat heavily on the hard ground, their foreheads and backs unknowingly covered in dense cold sweat.

They looked at one another.

"We’re alive... we survived!?"

While still shocked, they were incredulous.

Why would the Giant Dragon spare them?

And even while passing, it deliberately placed its footsteps to avoid their locations.

"Da... Dad, I think I saw that big creature holding a person."

A slightly thin woman spoke up to remind them.

Though the dragon’s claw tightly covered the figure, she could still glimpse through the gaps the silhouette of what seemed to be a human.

"A person?"

The leader took a deep breath.

His sixth sense told him that their survival might be related to the human in the dragon’s claw.

"Is it a captive compatriot?"

Beside him, another young man asked with a frown.

With their experience, it’s hard to guess what relationship could exist between a human and a Giant Dragon.

If it was food, the small amount of human flesh wouldn’t be enough for the giant beast’s teeth; it wouldn’t carry it continuously.

Moreover, judging from its act of sparing them, it seemed to be a relatively friendly dragon?

"Don’t think about these things." The leader’s rough face showed a hint of bitterness.

No matter the truth, it seems unrelated to their existence as nomads living in the cracks.

Even if the Red Dragon benevolently spared them, if they actively sought it out, it might change its mind and crush them on the spot.

"Next, we need to consider something else."

"Should we relocate from this mine?"

They looked at each other in dismay.

Relocation is undoubtedly a massive undertaking; they’ve been living in this mine for many years.

The water source, passages, various food traps, and shelters are relatively well-constructed; relocating would make it hard to quickly find a suitable living place.

Furthermore, leaving the surface for long periods of large-scale migration implies danger.

Though there aren’t many creatures nearby, some demons still inhabit the area.

But if they don’t relocate, there’s the issue of the Giant Dragon, and they can’t continue living beneath its terrifying gaze as if nothing happened.

The crowd fell into silence for a while.

Ultimately, they decided to continue with their original plan for this trip, to go out and gather food.

No matter what, food is essential, even if it means dying, they don’t want to starve.

Among them, only the woman who caught a glimpse of the figure in the dragon’s claw was still in a daze.

She didn’t see that person clearly, but instinctively, she felt it was a man, and a man of extremely handsome appearance.

There seemed to be a mysterious magic power about him, making her wonder what kind of person he was.

"Nira! Nira!"

"Hmm?"

"What are you daydreaming about? We need to go out to forage and hunt; food is scarce, keep up."

Seeing her father’s tightly furrowed brows, Nira eventually stopped pondering.

"Coming, coming."

Though just a woman, she was one of the tribe’s best hunters and had already awakened her magic power, mastering basic magical use.
