Late at night, Yang Tao lay on the Overworld bed with Jean in his arms, then had a strange dream.
He dreamt that he had once again transmigrated and become a warrior protecting the kingdom, and at that moment, he was receiving orders from the Old King to go to the distant Dragon Valley to subdue a mischievous Ender Dragon.
In his dream, he crossed mountains and flew over flat plains, finally arriving in a rugged canyon.
Passing through the thick fog, Yang Tao finally saw the legendary Ender Dragon.
The Ender Dragon also discovered him, opening her mouth and letting out a roar, warning him not to act rashly, as her power was enough to destroy the heavens and earth.
As a brave warrior, Yang Tao stood on the edge of the cliff, feeling uneasy, and reached out to touch the cold sweat on his forehead.
However, recalling the Old King's instructions, his eyes gradually became firm, and he raised his hand, shouting:
"Ender Dragon, surrender! You have nowhere to run."
Today, he was here to subdue her, to prevent her from destroying the kingdom as she had destroyed The End. Yang Tao's character was straightforward; once he made up his mind, he leaped without hesitation, jumping into the valley.
In an instant, the Ender Dragon was enraged by his bold provocation.
Yang Tao raised his sword high and plunged it fiercely into the Ender Dragon's body, and scarlet, hot blood gushed out.
The Ender Dragon let out a mournful cry, opened her massive maw, and bit savagely onto Yang Tao's shoulder. Fortunately, Yang Tao's defense was relatively high, and the Ender Dragon failed to break through his defenses.
The two of them were locked in a stalemate, neither daring to make a move, but the Dragon's physical constitution was ultimately stronger than a human's. The Ender Dragon released her mouth full of sharp teeth and extended her sharp claws, intending to cut Yang Tao in half at the waist.
Fortunately, the Quantum Shield was quite effective, blocking the Ender Dragon's attack, but his body was still uncontrollably pressed tightly against the Dragon's body.
This wouldn't do. Yang Tao could only struggle to pull out his longsword and stab it into the Ender Dragon's body again. Only by exhausting the Ender Dragon could he truly have a chance to subdue her.
The battle lasted for a long time.
Yang Tao felt like his bones were about to fall apart, and the Ender Dragon's cries grew weaker and weaker, eventually reaching a point where she could only open her mouth but produce no sound.
Just as Yang Tao was about to put a saddle on the Ender Dragon, his nose suddenly felt itchy. Opening his eyes, he saw Jean, her face flushed, lying on him, gently poking his nose with her finger.
"Stop messing around..."
"Hmm~ What did you dream about? Why do you seem so tired?"
Yang Tao rolled his eyes at her and said, "I dreamt I became a brave warrior and you became an evil dragon. It's morning, do you want breakfast?"
Jean shifted her body and said, "No, it's not tasty."
Yang Tao: "..."
An hour later, Yang Tao and the Ender Dragon finished breakfast and emerged from the matchbox house in the furthest corner of the Overworld.
"You rest well at home. It's been a long time since I last saw Conan and Harry. I'll go see how they're doing and invite them over to play for a couple of days on the way."
As a newlywed wife, Jean, though no longer as seductive, had gained a touch of wifely charm, making her even more alluring.
Hearing his words, Jean nodded gently and smiled, saying, "Why don't I go find those big-nosed Villagers and ask them to help set up the venue? Or I could take them to transform The End?"
Hearing Jean's suggestion, Yang Tao pondered for a moment before nodding gently and saying, "The End is very unique, the only downside is that there are too many Endermen. For now, let's stick to The End. Once we have a way to prevent monster spawning, then we can go to The End."
Jean nodded gently, her face blooming into a smile as she replied, "Okay, then you go."
Just as Yang Tao was about to leave, a question suddenly came to mind. Jean saw his hesitation and asked with a smile, "What's wrong?"
"Uh... nothing."
Yang Tao scurried away. He really couldn't bring himself to ask for the Ender Dragon's name.
'If it doesn't work, I'll just call her Dragon Girl... If I keep calling her that, won't it just be her name anyway!'
Pondering the matter of the name, he soon arrived at the wooden door leading to Harry's world and pushed it open.
The familiar Forbidden Forest.
Looking at Hagrid's hut outside the trees, Yang Tao's face showed a hint of confusion: 'How did Harry get to the Forbidden Forest to open the door?'
Stepping on the thick fallen leaves, he walked out of the dense forest, and from a distance, he saw Hagrid standing in the field, wielding a hoe.
Woof! Woof!
Next to the hut, a large Neapolitan Mastiff let out a rumbling bark. However, having seen too many massive monsters in the Pirate World, Yang Tao now found Hagrid's pet to be rather small and even cute, unlike his initial impression.
Hearing Fang's bark, Hagrid looked up and saw Yang Tao, immediately breaking into a bright smile and greeting Yang Tao: "Hi, Yang, long time no see."
"Indeed, it's been a long time, Hagrid."
Hagrid didn't seem to have changed much; he was still wearing that coat that looked like it could be used as a bulletproof vest, and his messy hair and beard made him look like a wild man.
Yang Tao walked up to Hagrid and asked, "Has anything interesting happened at school recently?"
"Interesting things."
Hagrid was silent for a moment and said, "Recently, some students have been petrified in the corridors, and now everyone is in a panic. Some parents have written to Dumbledore asking about this matter..."
Yang Tao's expression showed that he thought Hagrid was joking.
He naturally knew about the plot where students were petrified; it must be the Basilisk from the Chamber of Secrets that had escaped. But the problem was that Voldemort's diary had already been used to resurrect Voldemort, so how did this Basilisk get out?
For some reason, Dumbledore's kind and benevolent face popped into his mind.
However, Yang Tao quickly dismissed this idea. Dumbledore might set some traps or challenges for Harry, but he would never joke around with the school's students.
A Basilisk really had no trial value for the current Harry...
Fang, who was majestic beside them, saw Yang Tao and Hagrid chatting and smartly closed his mouth.
Yang Tao walked up to him and pulled out a cooked steak from his backpack, dangling it in front of Fang. In an instant, Fang's mouth watered profusely, but his remaining willpower kept him from opening his mouth.
Hagrid walked over with a smile and said, "Fang usually doesn't eat food given by strangers, but this is the first time I've seen him so eager."
Yang Tao handed the cooked steak to Hagrid, who took it with a smile and fed it to Fang. Watching Fang devour the steak in one bite, Hagrid let out a hearty laugh: "Yang, I'll treat you to my rock cakes. Freshly baked rock cakes with hot sheep's milk are the best."
Yang Tao did not refuse Hagrid's offer; as long as it was deemed food by the system, he could even eat diamonds.
He followed Hagrid into the house.
"Just a moment..."
Hagrid took out his wand, pointed it at the stove, and with a gentle flick, flames immediately rose. He picked up the large pot hanging on the wall nearby and placed it on the stove.
Then he walked to the sink, washed his hands, and said to Yang Tao, who was petting the dog:
"Don't worry, it'll be ready soon."
