In addition to a group of fifteen beastmen resembling orcs, Oswald also brought over thirty Wujin Iron Cavalrymen and a medical officer, which filled the place instantly.
Nick looked outside the door and couldn't help but ask, "Are we underground or on the ground?"
It was no surprise that he had doubts. Anyone who turned around in this kind of place would be confused by the scene here. Plump and bright-leafed plants and trees were everywhere, some straight and tall, with canopy pavilions. Canes as thick as a baby's arm meandered on the ground, climbing all the way along the cavernous house, hanging a few twigs from the wall.
There were trees, fruits, houses, and lighting hanging around. If one were not careful, they would give the illusion of being in a dense forest on the ground.
"It doesn't look like the ground anymore. When I hovered just now, I flapped my wings to the top several times," Dan said, grabbing a few red fruits by the wall, wiping them carelessly, and asked Kevin, "Is this stuff edible? It looks quite delicious, will I die if I take a bite?"
Kevin waved his hand, "That's not going to happen."
Hearing the word "no," Dan recklessly stuffed the red fruit into his mouth and took a bite. Chewing "Kacha Kacha," he said vaguely, "Oh, it's quite crunchy, a little sweet, tasty."
"I have one more here, but I haven't finished it," Kevin said helplessly. "Why are you eating so fast?"
"But? But what?" Dan paused, looked down at the red fruit left in his hand, and felt that there would be no good words behind.
Kevin let out an "oh" and said, "But this place is underground after all, there is no sunlight, only fertilizer, and this fertilizer..."
No matter how thrilling and exciting the tomb of the gods was, it was still a cemetery. The plants around the cemetery bore fruit, so what else could absorb the fertilizer?
Dan turned slightly, his face turning green.
"Uh——" he hugged the pillar at the door and spat out the fruit in his mouth and rushed to Oswald, who was not far away, with a weak face. "Where is the emperor? Can the emperor control your commander? How can he be so good at talking? Ugh—"
The two-meter-tall strong man, made weak by Kevin's terrified words, clutched his stomach and wanted to go into the cave to find a medical officer for a while.
Oswald was instructing Wujin's cavalry to clean up the corpses of the dryads. He turned his head, glanced at Kevin, and snorted coldly, "My commander? Your Excellency Fassbender has been thinking about rebelling all day long, but I can't control him, even if I know how to write the word emperor."
In front of so many people, Kevin still knew that the emperor couldn't beat him. He waved his hands in a face-saving way and said, "You can control it, I won't talk about it. Go ahead and eat. Most of it is already inside, and you can't spit it out. It doesn't matter. Just don't think about it so much."
Dan said, "I don't want to chat with this little boy commander anymore." So he turned his head and was about to enter the cave, but with a "bang," his forehead just hit the top of the door, causing him to grit his teeth in pain.
"Is this a dwarf country?!" he spat fiercely.
The kitchen cave that detained Kevin and the others before was now crowded, and the medical officer was giving medicine to all the wounded. Most of the people, such as the elite team who followed Kevin, had mostly scratches on their bodies, and some had bloody nests pricked by the vine burrs. These wounds were nothing, and the medical officer handled them with ease. What was more troublesome were the bumps and injuries on individual people.
Those places that had been impacted turned red at first and then gradually hardened, turning into a sandy texture. The doctor had nothing to do with this.
Dan's head knocked on the top of the door and made an earth-shattering sound. Not only Oswald and Kevin outside the house but even the medical officer and the generals who were drying medicine in the house also looked over.
