As the mouthparts open, the densely packed sharp teeth inside are exposed.

The teeth are curved inwards and look like barbs.

Before he bites Dante's body.

Dante had opened her eyes.

The crown on his head began to shine.

The body of the unknown creature trembled violently.

It seemed like it had seen something that frightened it.

Just as it was about to retract to the ground, Dante's hands had already tightly hugged it.

As Dante exerted force with his hands, he pulled the creature out of the ground.

The fainting just now was still faked by Dante.

Dante smiled and said:

"Although the method is very old-fashioned, it works very well."

Holding back the dryness in his mouth, Dante said hoarsely:

"I have some questions for you."

"If you can answer all my questions, you can survive."

The body of the maggot-like creature twisted crazily.

Dante's hands were like iron pliers, gripping him tightly.

After a long time, it lost its struggle.

It seems that he agreed to Dante's proposal.

Dante held him in his arms like a maggot.

In this way, the two sides began to communicate.

…………

After Dante asked the last question, he looked at the white maggot in his arms and said hoarsely:

"Okay, I'm done with my questions."

"You can live."

"But before that, you need to do me a favor!"

The maggot's mouthparts were squirming wildly, and its body was tightly held by Dante, unable to move.

Dante forced a smile on his face and said to it:

"Lend me some of the water in your body and take me to the post office."

"I will find a way to thank you when I get there."

The maggot hesitated for a while, then its mouthparts began to squirm.

Some water began to precipitate on the surface of its body.

With the precipitation of water, its body is no longer as white and tender as before.

Becoming a little wrinkled.

The water released from its body is not much, and the total amount is just one cup.

But Dante was already very satisfied.

Through talking with maggots, Dante learned a rule for survival here.

In this world, there is one thing that is indispensable.

That's moisture.

After a long period of evolution, the creatures here have developed the ability to store water in their bodies.

This ability allows them to better survive in hell.

When the water is depleted, they die.

So most of the time, water is used as the currency of transactions in this world.

And this white maggot can be regarded as the richest man in this world.

This can be seen from his white and tender body.

The water content in its body is very sufficient.

Dante did not kill him to seize the other party's wealth.

Because he still needs the other party to take him to the post office.

Only at the post office might he be able to contact Faith.

As a native of Hell, Faith must know more about Hell than Dante.

As long as the two of them meet, Dante's subsequent work will become easy.

After all, Faith is also one of the kings of hell.

I guess there should be no lack of moisture.

Dante collected the water from the white maggot's body and drank it all in one gulp.

After being nourished by the water in her mouth, Dante felt a sense of comfort.

Without rest, the white maggot took Dante into the ground.

Moving below the ground allows you to better avoid the sun.

This way the water consumption will be relatively less.

New ℴ𝓂

At this time, Dante had understood what Fez said.

There are many creatures in hell, but hell is so vast that it is difficult to see other creatures.

So hell is lonely.

After coming in for so long, Dante only discovered two creatures in total.

One is the crow, and the other is the white maggot.

White maggots move very quickly in the ground.

The mouthparts on its head kept chewing the soil in front of it, like a shield machine.

And it can extract what little water there is from the soil.

The soil is digested by its body and then excreted from its tail.

Dante followed the earthworm forward quickly and began to think at the same time.

"Normally, I don't need any water to survive."

"It should be that the sun contains some kind of rules."

"This kind of rule drives the creatures in hell to fight to steal the water in each other's body."

"It's truly hell."

Dante already has a preliminary understanding of the world.

Through previous conversations with White Maggot, Dante roughly knew the distribution of this world.

There are also gathering areas of creatures in hell.

That is what cities are called in human civilization.

Among them, kings like Fes can be regarded as strong men in hell.

There are gods in hell too.

These gods are called monarchs.

They are the leaders of those biological gathering areas, in other words, they are also called mayors.

And Fez always called him Maharaja.

Dante learned from the mouth of the white maggot.

The Maharaja is just a being that exists in legends.

The person who is called the Maharaja is the co-owner of hell.

Even those monarchs need to bow their heads when they see it.

Can be seen as an emperor.

Those monarchs are princes from all sides.

A king is the strong person under the king.

Next down are the slaves.

Everyone from the king down is a slave.

This is a world with strict hierarchies.

Like this white maggot, his identity is actually a slave.

However, it can be considered free if it lives alone in the wild.

The problem Dante is thinking about is that these kings in hell will not recognize his identity as a king.

If they knew he was in hell, they might try their best to kill him, but that's not necessarily the case.

After all, in hell, no one will reason with you.

When he thought of the contents of the note that Shadow left for him.

Dante felt a headache.

One of the notes stated that he needed to form a force of his own.

It is best to be a force composed of hell creatures.

Although Dante hated the shadow's previous behavior of plotting against him.

However, after he became a god, he promised his shadow to complete one thing for him.

Shadow has already prepared this matter.

That is to help the shadow become a god.

What he needs to do has been informed to him through the note left in the cigarette pack.

Dante has realized that he is affected by the shadow ability.

As for when it started, he had a rough guess.

It should have been from the time I took over the cigarette box.

He had been instigated by the shadow.

So this is the reason why he resolutely stepped into hell.

Because what the instigated person needs to do will become reasonable.

And the success rate is also very high.

This also means that Dante's trip to hell will most likely be a near miss.

However, this still requires Dante to fully utilize his abilities.

After all, if you instigate a fool to do something, no matter how detailed the plan given by the instigator is, it will fail in the end.
