Chapter 517: Chapter 298: Inside, there’s a Spirit (This book has reached 1,000,000 words)_2
 

“It’s all because you don’t do good deeds. This sea is so vast and yet it’s within our territory. However, nobody cares about the lives of the people here. Who else should they curse if not you? If you really care about the Dragon God’s reputation, you should be doing more good deeds, providing medicine, sending medical help. Only then will people sing the praises of the Giant Dragon. Maybe, you could unify the faith and reignite the fire of belief in the Dragon God.”

Another voice chimed in, and a bronze juvenile dragon flew down from the back of the Gold Dragon.

Then, several humans and a horse with a cap slid down from the back of the dragon. On seeing one of the humans, the middle-aged man’s eyes bulged, “Captain? Captain Night Raven? How…”

Black Night Raven waved his hand, signaling him to remain silent, and then ordered, “Pearls, bring out those hideaway pearls quickly. I’ve bought grain, and they even deliver.”

“Oh oh.” The middle-aged man had a belly full of questions, but he held them back for the moment and swiftly fetched a bag that contained seven or eight black pearls as big as chicken eggs.

Negris took them into his hands and looked at them with disdain. “They could fetch a considerable sum of money, but they’re of no use to us. Well, let it be.”.

These black pearls of this size are precious and priceless. They are of no use to them, but for an equivalent exchange, they cannot just give things away. Black Night Raven had to offer something in return. This was the only thing she could come up with at the moment, so she reluctantly accepted it.

The transfer of two hundred tons of grain sparked a wave of cheer among the crowd.

Ange and the others gathered after completing their task. Negris said, “Alright, we’re leaving. Remember to give thanks to the Undead God.”

Ange brought out the Staff of Heaven, opened the portal, and teleported one by one to the Holy Kingdom. Their miraculous disappearance sparked further awe among the crowd, and in the end, only a startled Brooks was left on the bay.

Black Night Raven carefully accompanied him, not understanding why Brooks was still lingering when the Lord had left.

Brooks was startled because Negris was right. He used to have distain for such actions like providing medical aid and food. What’s the use of that?

Even if the total population scattered across the sea was less than half a million, and all these people praised the Giant Dragon, what use would it be?

The Church of Light, being a major religious group with hundreds of millions of followers, still abides by the rules of the Dragon Clan when on the sea waters.

Of course, once on land, Brooks was as docile as a small lizard.

Because their number is so small, the Dragon Clan didn’t really care about the intelligent beings on the sea. Plus, they were dispersed over different islands, making it troublesome to help.

But, as Negris said, the sea is under the power of the Dragon Clan. Nobody else can or dares to venture deep into the sea. But, if the Dragon Clan doesn’t care about them, then no one else will. Wouldn’t they be cursed for dying of hunger or disease?

If there was no Dragon Clan, wouldn’t someone like Anthony be trying to extend his reach into the sea?

Another point is, are hundreds of thousands of believers really unimportant? Lord Ange also only has hundreds of thousands of followers, right? It seems like he can make it work. Should we incorporate them and establish a faith in the Dragon God?

If operated well, it could reignite the fire of belief in the Dragon God…

Thinking of this, Brooks stood up, his huge figure casting a shadow over Black Night Raven. He smiled and asked, “Black Night Raven, do you want to be sheltered by our Giant Dragon Clan, and rule dominantly over this sea territory?”

There’s such a good thing? Black Night Raven nodded vigorously, his head bobbing like a pecking chick.

“However, our dragon clan only shelters believers of the Dragon God,” said Brooks.

Black Night Raven nodded violently, then pointed to Brooks and shouted loudly, “Everyone come over, the Dragon God, shields us, thank the Dragon God!”

Across the sea, the Giant Dragon is supreme, and there are countless legends about them. Many old sailors have even witnessed the majestic sight of the Giant Dragon sweeping over the sea surface at high speed.

Now this massive creature was taking the initiative to protect them, and the only requirement was their belief?

Even when the Giant Dragons did not protect them, people at sea believed in the Dragon God. Even Black Night Raven, who didn’t believe, would habitually swear by the name of the Dragon God. It was as if they didn’t have to pay anything.

Heavens, there’s such a good thing? It must be the blessing of the Undead God, thank the Undead God!

Black Night Raven was not stupid, of course, she understood why Brooks had taken the initiative to protect her. The Giant Dragon who had always ignored human beings, why suddenly protect her?

Isn’t it because of Ange and the others? Without Ange taking her to Dragon Island, without the Bronze Dragon saying those words, this Gold Dragon would’ve scared her.

The others didn’t understand, but since they already believed in the Dragon God, hearing Black Night Raven’s shout, they all became overjoyed and quickly gathered around, kneeling and paying respects, including the several Snake People.

Brooks noticed the Snake People, sniffing as he asked, “You are Dragon thrift. Whose thrift are you?”

The Snake People said a name.

“Oh, it’s that one. It has returned to the Dragon Tomb to sleep eternally. Otherwise, I would have to hold it accountable for neglecting its Dragon thrift,” said Brooks authoritatively.

The few Snake People went limp at his words. The name they mentioned was regarded as their god in their legacy. But now, according to the tone of the Gold Dragon, if their god hadn’t died, it would have been held accountable?

This Gold Dragon seemed really powerful. What is its background?

Brooks blew a breath towards the few Snake People.
