You, a dragon, are farming in hell

Is this...an illusion?

Startled for a moment, Sophia looked around. In front of her was a desk, the ghost book in her hand had turned into a notebook, and she held a pen in her right hand.

A pen she had never seen before.

The classroom walls are blue and white, with the area below the desks being blue and the area above the desks being pure white.

There are windows, curtains, and doors.

There was also a platform, and on the platform stood a giant dragon.

and many more!

A giant dragon is standing on the platform?!

Sophia rubbed her eyes, and when she looked again, there was a giant dragon standing there!

It's still the dragon, Destin!

The dragon Diding stood on the platform, holding a white pen in its claws, and wrote on the blackboard.

"Pay attention in class, don't look around. What are you looking at? I'm talking to you, Sophia. Stand up and read this passage to me."

"Yes!" Sophia hurriedly stood up, looking at the words on the blackboard, feeling that the words were both familiar and unfamiliar.

What was familiar was... she felt she knew this script.

What's unfamiliar is that the writing on the blackboard isn't the script of the Kingdom of Roland.

"The adults...all...say...Griffin died in the winter. I looked at the boy standing next to me and asked him...Aren't you still alive? Why do they say you died in the winter? Your...parents said so too..."

Griffin said...they can't see me...so they think I'm dead...I asked Griffin...then why can I see you?

Griffin said, "...because I have eyes that can see the dead."

Sophia stumbled through the text on the blackboard, only to find the dragon Distin on the platform clapping. Then, the scene before her eyes rapidly blurred and faded...

She also experienced a moment of disorientation.

After a brief moment of disorientation, Sophia found that the illusion had disappeared, and she was still in the same place, with the dragon Diding still beside her.

She was still holding the ghost book in her hand. She realized she could now understand the dark red ancient characters on the cover: "The Eye of the Dead".

Below are four smaller characters: 'Also known as Ghost Eye'.

So...this is a horror story book?

Sofia didn't turn the page, afraid that if she did, she would inexplicably find herself in some kind of illusion again.

The illusion I just experienced must have been a side effect of the 'memory pill'.

"Can you understand the words in this ghost book now?"

"Yes, yes, yes." Sophia replied to Distin, then thought for a moment and told Distin about her experience entering the illusion. "So... Lord Distin, why were you also in the illusion?"

"To prevent the side effects of the 'memory pill' from affecting your personality and blurring your memory."

"Oh, I see." Sophia smiled sheepishly and said, "If Lord Distin is in the illusion, I certainly won't get lost."

Sophia put the ghost book into her spatial dragon scale ring. She would read the book while stealing dragon dung when she returned to the territory of the giant dragon Diding.

Now, we need to quickly find a place to release all the piglets, calves, chicks, and lambs from the Soul Ring.

“Lord Distin, shall we return to your territory? I need to release the little animals I brought back quickly, otherwise I’m afraid they’ll die in the Soul Ring if this goes on for too long.”

“Send them to Lich Brian’s territory and let Lich Brian raise them.”

"Huh? Let a lord-level lich herd sheep and raise pigs?" Sophia was shocked. That was a lord-level lich! Letting a lich of that level herd pigs and sheep... wasn't that a bit disrespectful?

"This...isn't this inappropriate?"

"He has skeleton soldiers. He wouldn't be stupid enough to raise pigs and sheep himself. He's gone."

Using his dragon claws to seize Sophia, Diding flapped his wings and soared into the sky.

After he left, several large, dark red characters appeared on the ground: "This is not your home, this is my territory!"

Diding looked down at the words on the ground. The blue-purple lightning released by the flapping of the dragon's wings struck the ground and destroyed the words.

When he was still a fledgling dragon, the seemingly reserved but actually secretly lewd zombie below told him to treat this place as his own home and even wanted to drag him into the stone coffin.

Now that he wants to go in, that brooding zombie won't let him in.

Glancing at the zombie that had vanished underground, Diding flapped its wings and disappeared into the dark red clouds.

When he appeared above Lich Brian's territory with Sophia, Lich Brian's figure flashed onto the Bone Tower.

The Lich Brian had seen the crimson sky turn bluish-purple early on, accompanied by lightning and thunder.

How long has it been?

Why is this evil dragon causing him trouble again?

Diding folded his dragon wings and landed in front of the Bone Tower.

The red-eyed raven on Lich Brian's staff spread a wing and gestured to Distin with a hand gesture toward his chest: "I offer my highest respect to the mighty Lord of Thunder!"

"Shut up. You pecked the head of the evil dragon Diding when he was still a fledgling."

"Shut up, I didn't, don't talk nonsense!" The red-eyed raven flew to Lich Brian's shoulder and covered Lich Brian's mouth with its wing.

"Don't cover it, it's covered in hair." Lich Brian chased away the red-eyed raven, and the eerie green soul fire landed on the dragon Diding's head. "The seed hasn't been successfully modified yet, you have to give me time."

"I'm not here to urge you to modify the plant corpse monster seeds, but to let you raise pigs and herd sheep."

"?" The Lich Brian's soulfire looked puzzled. "You're planning to eat zombie pigs? Skeleton sheep? What? Do you want to try what soup made from century-old sheep bones tastes like?"

“They’re not zombie pigs or skeleton sheep, they’re real pigs and sheep with flesh and blood.” Sophia looked up at Distin. “Lord Distin, you’re not going to scare them to death again, are you?”

"Let them out; they can't see me this time."

"Ok."

Sophia jumped onto the Bone Tower, and the Soul Ring on her right hand flashed, revealing five piglets, two calves, a dozen chicks, and two lambs at the feet of the Lich King.

These small animals lay on the ground, barely breathing, exhaling more than they inhaled.

"It actually has flesh and blood, is this a sacrifice?" Lich Brian glanced at the livestock at his feet, then turned his soul fire to Distin: "You're developing followers in the human world, are you preparing to escape from hell?"

This way of escaping hell is a bit like a trick that devils often use. This method doesn't seem to work on you. Your dragon body is so big that if you enter a human body, you will directly burst the human's fragile flesh.

To avoid this, you would have to go to great lengths to modify the human body, and even then, you might not succeed.

"If I respond to the call of a being in the human world, is it possible for me to appear directly in the human world?"

"Stop dreaming! Apart from undead creatures with low intelligence like skeleton soldiers, which can be summoned by humans, undead beings of your and my level cannot leave Hell at all, unless a powerful figure in the human world sets up an altar."

If it could forcibly open a passage between Hell and the human world for a short time, you might be able to escape...

"No, you've been in hell for so long, how could you not know these things? You've never thought about escaping hell, have you?!"

"Hell is my home."

“…”

Lich Brian's soul fire erupted from his eye sockets, and his bone fists hardened!

Chapter 25 You really want to use me as cannon fodder?

I never thought about escaping hell, so why am I babbling on and on with him?

Why would a flesh-and-blood dragon stay in hell instead of going to the human world?

What's in hell?!

Besides skeletons, undead, zombies, liches, demons, and all sorts of strange ghosts, what else is there?

Why can't this guy learn from those devils next door?

He spent his entire life tirelessly researching ways to escape from hell, even though he would still be hunted down by the hell's enforcers after escaping.

But the demons who can escape from hell are incredibly powerful, and some of the hell's enforcers may not be a match for them.

The evil dragon Destin is not a devil; if he escapes from Hell, the Hell enforcers should not pursue him.

"If you don't escape hell, you'll regret it sooner or later." The lich Brian loosened his bone fist, and the soul fire that had burst from his eye sockets returned to them. "You are not a true undead creature, but a dragon with flesh and blood."

An existence like you should never appear in Hell. Hell is the world of the dead. To the undead, a living being with flesh and blood is nothing but food.

Only a few undead creatures in the Crimson Wasteland have seen you, and these undead creatures happen to be unable to devour you.

However, when word spreads in Hell that there are living dragons in the Scarlet Wasteland, you will definitely become prey for the many undead creatures of Hell.

It's still that kind of delicious, high-quality blood food. Not to mention other undead creatures, even the devils in hell, the demons, would definitely drool over you if they knew you were a living dragon. They would drool over you, right?

I remember you used that word.

Therefore, before you attract the attention of those demons, you'd better leave hell as soon as possible.

Lich Brian admitted that the dragon Distin was stronger than him now, but an undead creature of his level was nothing compared to the higher undead creatures in Hell.

Only by becoming an immortal king might one be qualified to converse with those higher undead beings.

"Where are there not a few strong people? Hell has devils, and the human world has brave warriors, heroes, holy knights, and other strong people. As long as I am still a dragon, I will attract the attention of strong people wherever I go."

Strong people exist everywhere, and so do crises. Instead of thinking about escaping, it's better to find a place you like and honestly improve your strength.

Who knows, one day he might become a powerful being that even the devil fears.

"......"

The lich Brian was speechless; the dragon Distin's ability to sophistry was even stronger than his ability to bewitch people.

What he just said wasn't entirely unreasonable. The devil is attracted to living beings with flesh and blood, and a giant dragon like the evil dragon Destin will eventually attract the devil's attention.

Judging from what the evil dragon Destin said, he still wants to have a go at the devils in hell?

It's crazy.

The demons in hell are a headache even for the hell's enforcers.

"If you're determined to take root in hell, you'd better have your own power base and loyal followers."

"Alright, I'll swallow my pride and take a loss to become your second subordinate. That way, you won't be fighting alone against demons without any help."

"You want to be my cannon fodder?"

"!!!"

Are you really going to use me as cannon fodder?

Lich Brian's Soulfire Roar.

"They're...dead! The piglets and calves I brought seem to be dead..."

"It's normal to die. This is hell. Animals with flesh and blood can't survive here. Kid, not every creature is as twisted as the evil dragon Destin, able to survive in such a harsh environment as hell."

Sophia thought about it and realized that what the lich Brian said made sense.

If living beings could freely enter and live in hell, then hell would not be a world for the dead.

Thinking of this, Sophia's gaze fell on Didin's dragon body. Only then did she realize how outrageous it was that the dragon Didin could live to adulthood in Hell.

Through the conversation between the lich Brian and the dragon Destin, she also knew what kind of survival pressure Destin would face in Hell.

Oh, devil...

That was a terrifying existence that even church clergy feared.

"I'm sorry, Lord Distin."

No need to apologize.

Destin didn't take it to heart; raising pigs, cows, and sheep in hellish enclosures... that was indeed a bit outrageous.

The laws of hell do not allow living beings to survive.

Even if they are lucky enough to survive, they will undergo mutations over time.

"By the way, did you know that a caravan has appeared in the Crimson Wasteland?"

The lich Bryan collected the piglets, lambs, and calves that had just died and told Distin about a piece of news he had recently received.

Caravans that dare to roam freely in various parts of Hell are all well-connected and powerful.

Furthermore, caravans will proactively enter the territories of lord-level undead beings to trade with them.
