Dilemma

The gap between the rocks was less than 1 meter wide.

Alexander and Alice had no problem getting in.

However, the evil dragon's head was larger than a meter, with a triangular shape and covered with sharp spikes.

The width of the dragon's head near its ears reached 2 meters.

The body was even 5 meters wide, about 18 meters long, and with the wings spread, the wingspan exceeded 20 meters.

This thing could scare a child with a fear of huge objects to death on the spot!

Alexander could see that the dragon's nostrils were as big as pot lids, and because of its anger, they were writhing and emitting bursts of green smoke.

Under the erosion of the smoke,

Alexander found that his health was slowly decreasing!

-10!

-10!

-10!

This was merely the evil dragon's breath!

It hadn't even launched any attacks on Alexander yet, but he was already losing health!

"What is this thing!" Alexander was terrified.

"It's a poison dragon, it's a poison dragon!"

Alice's weak voice came.

"Holy Light!"

Alice took out her wand and sprinkled a beam of holy light on herself.

With the arrival of the holy light, her complexion slightly recovered.

"Dispel!"

Then, another beam of holy light was sprinkled towards Alexander's direction.

Alexander felt the poisonous smoke in the air slowly dissipate, and his health stopped decreasing.

Boom!

The cave trembled.

The poison dragon withdrew its head.

In a short while, it reached in with a claw.

Alexander quickly dodged.

Alice also swiftly evaded.

Under the limitations of sight and space,

The poison dragon could neither see the location of the dragon egg nor catch Alexander and Alice.

After struggling for a while, it could only roar outside in anger.

For a short time, Alexander and Alice were safe.

However, Alexander didn't believe that the evil dragon would give up so easily.

Such a level 100 monster had high intelligence, even comparable to humans.

Within two minutes, the evil dragon stopped roaring.

In the air, there was a slow flow of air.

This airflow was quite unusual.

Alexander keenly noticed that the air was flowing outward.

This was due to a change in air pressure; the pressure outside had decreased, while the pressure inside the cave had increased.

Under normal circumstances, there wouldn't be any airflow in the dragon's lair due to the lack of ventilation.

So…

Alexander realized that the evil dragon might be preparing for a powerful attack.

He glanced at Alice, who was flying around aimlessly like a headless fly.

If he died under the evil dragon's powerful attack, that would be one thing.

But what about Alice?

What to do?

Alexander was so anxious that he scratched his head and ears.

Since the poison dragon could cause them to lose health with its poisonous fog,

It meant that if the poison dragon sprayed something, he and Alice couldn't withstand it and would undoubtedly die!

Suddenly, Alexander looked at the dragon egg on the ground.

That's it!

Alexander took out his dagger and stabbed it viciously into the dragon egg.

Since he couldn't equip the dagger, Alexander couldn't gain the dagger's attributes, but the dagger was sharp enough, and his equipment had been upgraded.

With one strike,

He took away 100 health points from the dragon egg!

"Roar!"

As the dragon egg lost health, the evil dragon immediately let out a heartbreaking roar.

The air suddenly became much more stable.

The evil dragon might have stopped its powerful attack!

Alexander quickly shouted towards the outside of the cave:

"If we don't survive, your egg won't either!"

The evil dragon stopped roaring.

It seemed to understand Alexander's words.

Outside the cave, only heavy breathing remained.

Alexander continued, "We just happened to pass by here and had no intention of harming your baby. If you let us go, we'll forget about this matter…"

Roar!

In response to Alexander, there was an angry roar.

Obviously, the evil dragon disagreed!

Alexander wanted to leave, no doubt.

But the evil dragon also wanted to ensure the safety of its baby.

Once the dragon baby was safe, Alexander and Alice would have no chance of survival with the evil dragon's nature.

This situation was almost unsolvable!

Alexander could only buy time now.

And he kept thinking of ways to deal with the situation.

Regardless of whether the dragon baby was safe, he and Alice could not survive.

Offending the authority of the evil dragon clan was a death sentence.

There was also the possibility of being hunted down by the evil dragon clan in the future.

The evil dragon stopped attacking now partly because it couldn't get in.

Another reason was that it was afraid Alexander would become desperate and destroy the dragon egg.

Alexander stopped talking and didn't touch the dragon egg again.

The evil dragon outside gradually calmed down, dragging its feet and walking away.

After hearing the sound, Alexander looked outside.

"Roar!"

A sharp claw suddenly attacked from the darkness!

Damn!

Alexander dodged by leaping, evading the deadly strike from the dark under the control of the keen subconscious cultivated from playing as a thief his entire life.

The dragon's claw barely grazed his golden armor.

[Durability -100!]

The golden armor cracked on the spot and fell to the ground.

Alexander felt a tingling sensation on his scalp.

That attack power...

And the destructive force...

Just a touch, and the armor was shattered.

The key was that this beast was so cunning.

It could actually feint and launch a sneak attack!

Its intelligence was beyond imagination!

No wonder ordinary people never encountered dragons in their lifetime.

Alexander could only consider himself lucky, and if it wasn't for Alice's help,

Even if he knew where the dragon's lair was, he wouldn't be able to threaten the safety of the evil dragon or its egg.

Now the evil dragon hid in the darkness.

Alexander hid inside the cave.

The situation reached a stalemate.

In the darkness, the dragon egg emitted a faint green glow.

Alice's wings also emitted clusters of pale blue light.

Alexander looked at Alice, huddled in the corner, holding her knees, and at a loss.

He suddenly felt a pang of guilt in his heart.

He knew that Alice was the daughter of the God King.

That's why he tricked her into the game.

The adventure in the dragon's lair was a sudden idea, and even he didn't expect it to be so risky.

It wouldn't matter if he died, but if Alice died...

Alexander slowly walked towards Alice and sat down beside her.

Alice seemed to have been crying, her voice hoarse, and said, "I shouldn't have listened to you."

Alexander remained silent.

"Is there a possibility that I can beat the evil dragon outside?"

Alexander made a half-serious joke.

"Yes, because you... are dreaming." Alice sobbed.

"Men can't say they can't do it!" Alexander patted his chest.

"To be honest... I... I like your... bragging..."

Alice stammered.

Alexander awkwardly scratched the back of his head.

This was a bit of a dilemma.

Now the problem was, bragging couldn't solve the problem.

Alexander restrained the frivolity in his speech, found two stones on the ground, and struck them together, making a thumping sound.

The sound dispelled some loneliness and made people feel a little more at ease.

Alexander's tone became more serious, and he asked, "Are you afraid of dying?"

"Scared." Alice replied without hesitation.

"The evil dragon will kill you," Alexander said again.

"I know." Alice was about to cry again.

Alexander didn't say anything.

"That's why I shouldn't have listened to you," Alice added.

Alexander took a deep breath and suddenly said, "I have a way to get you out safely..."

"What's the method?" Hope rose in Alice's tone.

"Sigh..." Alexander sighed and said, "The game stipulates that each player has not only a pet space but also a servant space."

"If you're willing to acknowledge me as your master and enter my servant space, I can take you out safely..."
