The sudden feeling of being lifted into the air made her heart stop. When Maggie opened her eyes, she saw the scenery rushing past her. She was now hanging in mid-air, with a claw grabbing her waist.
"!!!"
If this weren't a dream, Maggie felt she would have fainted from fright.
Because below lies a massive, bottomless crevice in the valley, with thick clouds obscuring half of the cliff face, a sight that sends chills down one's spine.
Maggie was right above the crack, being grabbed by the waist and lifted into the air by some unknown species.
It's no longer just teetering on the brink of collapse; it's like skydiving without a parachute, a surge of adrenaline.
Maggie watched helplessly as she flew deeper into the valley, and could only silently console herself.
It's okay, it's okay, it's okay!
This is a dream; you won't die even if you fall.
It might scare her half to death.
As the creature holding her flew faster and faster, the whistling wind rushing past her ears, and after an unknown amount of time, the creature, perhaps having found its own cave, swung Maggie into it with a swinging motion.
The cave is located on a cliff face, and only flying creatures can enter and exit it.
Maggie was thrown to the ground in a sorry state. After getting up, she realized what was holding her—a huge wind dragon.
"?"
To be honest, Maggie was a little speechless, because the wind dragon in front of her, if nothing unexpected happened, should be the god of the sky.
But thinking of Ficklin, Maggie inexplicably felt an urge to fight the Sky God.
This is outrageous! How dare they treat her like this?
However, Maggie only thought about it and did not put it into practice.
Before long, the god of the sky transformed into human form and landed in front of her, looking down at her with a scrutinizing gaze.
Its emerald green eyes carried a dangerous aura, its body was covered in armor made of scales, and its features were three-dimensional and deep. Compared to Ficklin, Oris exuded a mature and steady temperament.
"Why are humans in the dragon's territory?"
Perhaps it was because the place where Maggie appeared was suspicious that Oris brought her back.
Maggie had heard similar words many times before, and she remained very calm. Almost every god who saw her would ask her why she was there, and her answer was always the same: "I don't know."
"have no idea."
Maggie smiled slightly, patted the dust off her dress, and spoke calmly.
However, Oris is not the same kind of simple-minded fool as Ficklin. Although they are from different past and present lives, their personalities are completely different.
As expected, Oris frowned and his voice turned cold.
"Since you can't explain it, then you should leave the dragon's territory. As a human, you can't fly, so I will take you out."
He sensed Maggie's perfunctory attitude and naturally didn't respond well.
The dragon race is currently in a state of near paranoia and is extremely unfriendly towards outsiders. If any other dragon encountered this unconscious woman, they might just tear her to pieces.
The calamity of the undead has just passed, and the war of the gods has begun. Many false gods of the dragon race are participating in the struggle and have all left their territories.
He was the only one left guarding the territory.
The dragon race's defenses are currently weak, making them vulnerable to attacks from other races. With such a small population, how could they possibly be friendly to intruders who appear out of nowhere?
Oris thought he had been kind enough by not killing her and even taking her back to the cave to prevent other dragons from killing her, but the woman was so dismissive of his attitude.
"Oh, then you can see me out."
Maggie raised an eyebrow, crossed her arms, and showed no fear of him whatsoever.
Based on the results of the previous dreams, Oris will definitely need her help in the end, and might even go out of his way to find her after she was abandoned.
Maggie was confident and fearless; she just had to wait.
"you!"
Oris's pupils dilated in shock when he saw Maggie's incredibly relaxed and nonchalant attitude. He could feel himself being held in his claws just now, and this woman was clearly afraid, but now she wasn't afraid of being thrown out by him.
"What's wrong? Didn't you say that?"
Maggie tilted her head and suddenly thought that Oris was quite interesting too.
"Hmph, today is not suitable, let's talk about it tomorrow."
Oris paused for a moment before turning his head and replying in a cold, hard voice.
There are many dragon guards patrolling outside the territory today. If he takes Maggie out like this, he will be easily discovered. It would be best to wait until night or during the shift change tomorrow morning to take her out.
"Oh well."
Maggie raised an eyebrow and agreed with great interest.
Sure enough, her feeling was right. Oris was a stubborn guy with a soft heart. Maggie realized it as soon as he said his second sentence.
If you really wanted her dead, you should have just thrown her into the valley. Why would you say you wanted to take her out?
It seems that whether it is a god or a human being, even if their memories and experiences are different and their memories are somewhat biased, their general personality will not change.
"You'll sleep here tonight, and I'll take you away tomorrow."
Oris turned around stiffly, and Maggie looked at his back. She could just see a patch of his skin that wasn't covered by his scale armor, and the shape of his muscles was visible on the bare skin.
"Thank you then."
Maggie acted as if she were home, finding a suitable spot in the cave to sit down. Knowing Oris as she did, she figured he wouldn't say anything even if he saw her being so casual.
As Maggie expected, Oris merely glanced at her indifferently and then remained silent.
The cave returned to silence, but the wind outside was still strong. Occasionally, through the cave entrance, one could see giant dragons flying around. In Maggie's view, they looked like a group of colorful, winged lizards, which were rather ugly.
Recalling Oris's dragon form from earlier, I realized that his dragon form... was actually quite handsome?
The dragon, entirely emerald green, is so exquisitely carved that it seems to have been carved from fine jade. Perhaps it's because the Chinese have an ingrained love for jade, and they feel that the clear, lustrous green is quite noble.
Hmm... Although the Golden Dragon looks more expensive, Maggie thinks it's rather tacky.
Night fell quickly, and the cave grew dark. While the other dragons' lairs offered glimpses of treasure, Oris's lair was shrouded in darkness, without even a single luminous pearl for illumination.
The wind in the valley was so strong that Maggie felt a little cold and unconsciously rubbed her arms.
Indeed, the place where dragons live is not suitable for humans.
At the same time, Oris, who had been feigning sleep, let out a faint sigh.
As Maggie was quietly thinking, she suddenly felt something warm close to her, enveloping her completely. Upon closer inspection, she saw it was a huge dragon tail.
