A million ways to survive in the dungeon

Zhulonghuang’s experience?

That person must have stood at the top since he was born, looking down upon the sky, right?

In the past, Zhao Aotian probably thought this way.

But the reality is exactly the opposite.

"I didn't achieve what I am today at the beginning. At the beginning, I was just a five-scum baby dragon born in a dungeon with all attributes of only 5."

Zheng Qian sighed and told Zhao Aotian in detail about his life in the underground city for half a year.

Although some unnecessary content was modified or deleted, Zheng Qian still told the overall story without missing a beat.

Ever since he recognized Zhao Aotian as his friend, Zheng Qian had always wanted to talk to him about his past.

Unexpectedly, I would have this opportunity to confide in him on this occasion today.

Zhao Aotian was not interested at first.

But as I listened, I couldn't help but be a little shocked.

By the time the Zhulong Emperor finished talking about the battle with Leviathan, Zhao Aotian was already stunned on the spot.

After a long time, he lowered his head: "I didn't expect you to have such an experience."

Emperor Zhulong also snorted sadly: "It's all in the past.

When my wet nurse and four brothers and sisters died, I was just like you. I felt extremely uncomfortable.

But in an environment like a dungeon, where would you have time to shed tears? Just to survive we have to do our best.

But, sometimes I still think of them.

If I had had enough strength to protect them at that time, I would be much happier now, right? "

Zhao Aotian lowered his head and looked at his dirty reflection in the stream: "It's all because of lack of strength."

"Yes, because there is no power."

Emperor Zhulong said: "However, we have all survived. If we lost our loved ones in the past because of lack of power, then the best way to make up for it is to protect our loved ones now after we gain the power."

"Ha." Zhao Aotian laughed dryly: "To put it lightly, you are a dragon, born with faster growth speed, more effective growth efficiency, and higher growth space.

I am human.

I understand that you gave me the essence and blood of Zhulong just to allow me to break the limitations of human beings.

The battle with Xiao Bi gave me the deepest feeling: humans are humans after all, and there are countless powers in this world that we have never come into contact with.

So what if I can break through alone? There are so many people in this world, do they all depend on me?

Humans are just humans. "

Zhao Aotian's dejected look made Zheng Qian feel a little heartbroken for him.

"You weren't like this before."

"Really."

"The Zhao Aotian I know is a human who dares to confront the devil and can make me bleed."

Zhao Aotian's bitter smile revealed a touch of sadness: "Maybe I was like this before.

But I'm really tired now. "

As he said that, Zhao Aotian looked up at the sky and said after a long time: "Go back, Zhulong Emperor, thank you for coming to accompany me, but now I just want to be alone."

There was no sparkle in his eyes.

Such things as fighting spirit have long been exhausted along with revenge.

With this appearance, Zheng Qian could tell just by looking at it: his soul was no longer in the body.

In the past, Zheng Qian would definitely turn around and leave at this time. Do you respect his thoughts?

but……

"I won't leave."

Emperor Zhulong shouted with a decisive voice: "Zhao Aotian, you are the only human being who has made me bleed. You will not lose here."

"So so what? I'm just a weakling who can't even protect a girl."

"You have never been weak."

"I'm not a weakling. What am I?!"

Without warning, Zhao Aotian suddenly roared: "You and I have so many similar experiences, but you succeeded, and I am still so weak.

Why am I not weak?

If you have the power to stop feeling the loss of you, how can you possibly understand how I feel without the power?

Now that you have the power, you can look down on all living beings from a high position, and you no longer need to live in fear.

But what about me? Growing up, I almost lost everything in order to gain strength. I thought I had enough strength and could properly pursue the feeling I gained.

But in the end, it was all in vain.

I have no desire, I have lost everything, I have dedicated so much, but why...

…Even such a small wish cannot be allowed. "

At this point, Zhao Aotian was already crying.

He had a complete emotional breakdown.

On the battlefield, a top warrior who would not cry even if his limbs or even his head were cut off, cried like a helpless child.

Tears kept dripping into the stream and were submerged in the water.

Zheng Qian did not continue to speak.

Cry.

When a man sheds tears, he doesn't shed them easily, but they are not sad yet.

Just cry.

"Growth is always accompanied by pain."

Zheng Qian stretched out his hand and patted his back gently.

Zhao Aotian cried as if he was suffocating, and kept mumbling the name that would leave him forever.

For a long time, until sunset, he gradually calmed down.

Looking at his crying eyes, Zheng Qian smiled and stood up.

"Zheng Qian asked me to tell you that he has been extremely busy since you have been away recently. Kota Country is coming to visit tomorrow, and he said he really can't handle it alone."

"I won't come." Zhao Aotian said still sobbing.

But Emperor Zhulong smiled and said, "I don't care about that. He said he would wait for you at Yuelai Tower, and he would wait until twelve o'clock noon at the latest."

"I told you I wouldn't come."

"He knows what you said. I'm just sending a message to him. As for whether to go or not, it's up to you to decide."

Emperor Zhulong paused and continued, "But he said he believed you would definitely come."

After saying that, Zheng Qian turned around, opened the space transfer, and left the place.

In the bamboo forest, Zhao Aotian sat alone by the stream.

Looking at myself in the stream.

In a daze, Zhao Aotian seemed to vaguely hear the voice that he had been thinking about day and night.

【Aotian~】

…the next day…

Yue comes to the front of the building.

"Do you think he will come?" Zheng Sepi asked curiously.

"Based on the intuition passed down from generation to generation in the Kacher family, not necessarily." Kachersky looked in the mirror and carefully took care of the mustache he had grown in imitation of his father.

Zheng Qian, who was standing in front of the team, did not answer.

But his face was full of confidence.

In early summer, as the temperature gradually rises at noon, the scenery at the end of the street gradually becomes distorted by the hot air.

Zheng Qian glanced at the time, it was exactly twelve o'clock.

Look up.

"Look, isn't he here?"

Everyone heard this and went away.

At the end of the street with distorted scenery, a man's weathered figure was seen walking towards this side.

Zheng Qian smiled slightly.

"Old Zhao, welcome back."
