Chapter 833: Absurdity
In the blink of an eye, five days had passed.
During these five days, Dudian spent most of his time in his own house. The villagers seemed to be accustomed to his existence. Many villagers were warned by the old man, however, curiosity still prompted them to come closer and peek. The result was that Dudian seemed to be completely different from the “Fierce”and “Cruel”image described by the old man, so they gradually grew bolder.
Some children often came to play outside Dudian’s residence. At first, they were called back by their parents. But later nothing happened, so they let the children play here.
For five days, Priory sent food to Dudian every day. At first, it was small blue fish. Later, the number of small fish gradually decreased. In the end, they only sent some strange leaves and fruits.
Dudian knew that most of the people here ate these fruits. The radiation in the soil here was too severe to be planted. These edible fruits were plants that they had tried for hundreds of years to transplant into the village, but there weren’t many of them. So even light fruits were very precious. Most people could only eat some boiled water grass and bark.
Dudian occasionally wandered around the village. Every place he went would attract the eyes of the surrounding residents. But he didn’t care. After five days of contact he found that the population of the village wasn’t very large, there were only four or five hundred people in total. The temple where the Great God lived was the center. Most of the villagers were unable to have children because of the radiation. Most of them were members of the hunting team who often went out to explore, women and children were very precious here. It was difficult for Dudian to imagine the marriage of a maid.
In his opinion it was an absurd marriage but there was still “Love”. For example, priory who often came to deliver food to Dudian. He shared his wife with two other men, in this case, he still loved his wife deeply. He thought that his wife also loved him deeply. Both of them were true love.
Moreover, he would not be jealous because of the existence of the other two. On the contrary, he was good friends with the other two.
When he knew about this, Dudian felt that his worldview had been completely destroyed. However, he thought of the dangerous environment and monsters that he had encountered along the way. They were able to survive for more than 300 years in this kind of environment, it was extremely difficult and unimaginable. In such an absurd environment, there was such an absurd marriage and love.
Dudian had a special feeling every time he saw priory happily talk about his wife. Adaptation was a terrible thing. Once he got used to it, he would no longer be able to judge right and wrong, but in the end, the standard of right and wrong was built on the world view that he had long been accustomed to. As a common saying goes, no one could see their own mistakes. No one knew that they were clowns.
In addition to this strange marriage system, Dudian found that the residents seemed to be lazy. Except for pulley and the other members of the hunting team, the rest of the old people and women were sitting at home in a daze, they were playing simple games to kill time. It seemed that no one wanted to improve the environment. No one wanted to create anything.
After asking a few people Dudian knew that they were counting on the great god.
In their hearts, the Great God was an omnipotent existence. He was appointed by the Aragami and had the power of God. Because of this, many people lost the desire to fight. After all.., why bother to waste their brains when they could get answers to questions from the Great God?
This made Dudian think that a good leader might not be able to bring out a group of outstanding talents.
However, there were environmental factors. In this closed underground world, the range of their activities was limited. As time went on, people became lazy.
Dudian was familiar with the atmosphere of the place. Every day he trained in his own room. His physique had reached the bottleneck of the peak of dominance. Even if he injected more God’s marrow into his body, he wouldn’t be able to reach the abyss level, however, the improvement of fighting was endless. Dudian relied on the power of the wall master to obtain the secret fighting skills of the Dragon Clan, the wing clan, the Rock clan, the dragon blood technique, the Rock clan’s diamond body, the wing clan’s lightning wings.., all of them were very practical combat skills. They could improve his defense, flying speed, as well as burst and lurk.
“Benefactor!”
Priory carried the stone box and ran to Dudian’s house. He rushed in excitedly. He saw Dudian crouching on the ground in a strange position: “Benefactor is training?”
Dudian stood up from the ground. He didn’t blame him for not knocking on the door: “What are you so happy about?”
Priory grinned: “The high priest said that we can go to the Blue Fish Lake to fish at dawn tomorrow. There is no danger.”
“That’s good. We can catch more this time.”Dudian faintly smiled. He had asked Priory to take him out to hunt these days. He wanted to rely on the harvest of the hunt to establish a good relationship with the village but was refused, the reason was that it was too dangerous. Now he could finally go out to get some fresh air.
“Yes!”Priory excitedly said: “This time there will be benefactor. I will prepare the bags when I go back. Benefactor, I will look for you in the evening. We will gather in the tunnel.”
“Gather?”Dudian asked: “There are others?”
“Yes. I heard that benefactor’s strength is extraordinary. There are many people who want to join us to go to the Blue Fish Lake to fish.”Priory smiled: “I saw that their family’s situation is not good so I agreed. Anyway the high priest said that there is no danger if there are less than twenty people. So there are eighteen people in addition to us.”
“Oh, okay.”Dudian nodded but felt helpless in his heart. He said that there were no more than 20 people but there were exactly 20 people.
“I will go back and prepare now.”Pulley excitedly said.
Dudian nodded. He opened his stone box after pulley left. There were two small blue fish inside. He hadn’t eaten these small fish for two days. He thought that there would be a lot of harvest tomorrow, so he took out his storage.
“I wonder what the taste will be like if I catch the things at the bottom of the lake?”Dudian thought of the terrifying strange fish in the depths of the lake. His eyes slightly flickered. Since he was going to perform well and establish a friendly relationship with the villagers.., naturally he couldn’t act ordinary this time. But if he relied on his own strength to catch the fish, it would cause some people to be afraid. There might even be spies arranged by the Great God, he deliberately used this matter to test his strength.
“I used the dragon’s blood to suppress the reaction of the heat source. They shouldn’t know my specific strength. I can only speculate from the two undeads. At most they think that I am a pioneer or even an inner wasteland. It seems that it is necessary to hide my strength.”Dudian thought, he could only use tools to fish if he hid his strength.
At the thought of tools, his mind was filled with countless old-fashioned fishing tools, and he had an idea.
