Chapter 58
"You really do understand!"
Seeing the donkey's reaction, Ye Bai's eyes lit up. She had secretly noticed this before, and now she had indeed discovered it.
This donkey is really extraordinary!
How could a donkey that could take out things from its own space backpack and understand the dragon's language, and looked intelligent and spiritual, wandering alone in the dragon tomb ruins, be an ordinary donkey?
"Ahhhhhhhh!"
Perhaps because he had been exposed, the donkey simply closed his eyes and finished chewing the bread, then called out to Ye Bai, looking like he had given up.
"What's your relationship with the ancient dragon clan?" Ye Bai asked. Compared to the strange humanoid figure with unknown origin and curse, Ye Bai trusted the donkey that was bound to him and was increasing its domestication degree more.
"Ahhh!"
The donkey still had the same expression and could not speak, it could only bray.
"You also have dragon blood? It's a mutant species?" Ye Bai guessed, then shook his head. Dragon blood is very domineering. Even if a dragon descendant only has a little bit of dragon blood, it will be obviously manifested in appearance. The donkey in front of him looks no different from an ordinary donkey.
"Ahhh!"
The donkey brayed again, with the same expression.
Ye Bai: "Am I wrong?"
"Ahhh!"
This time it even rolled its eyes.
Ye Bai's eyes narrowed, and he began to make a bold guess: "You are actually a giant dragon that has transformed into what you are now. Are you hiding your identity and avenging the ancient dragon clan?"
"Ahhh!"
The donkey's eyes were almost rolling up to the sky.
Ye Bai never thought that one day he would see a speechless expression on a donkey's face. But when he thought about it, the ancient dragons were such a proud race that they would only look squarely at the strong ones they recognized. If the donkey was really a member of the ancient dragon clan, it would probably not let a mortal in his twenties ride on its back no matter how hard it tried.
This is something engraved in the dragon's bloodline. From a gaming perspective, it's the underlying code for the behavioral logic of this tribe.
So what is the origin of this donkey?
Feeling his cloak being pulled, Ye Bai looked at the donkey.
It loosened Ye Bai's light feather cloak and gestured forward with its mouth.
"What? Do you have something else to do?" Ye Bai asked.
The most important thing for Ye Bai to do when she came to the God Realm this time was to get the cloth from the Luozhi tribe, but the donkey seemed to be attracted by her bread and didn't show any purpose. Does the reminder now have other meanings?
"Ahhh!"
The donkey brayed and blinked at Ye Bai, but did not clearly express confirmation or denial.
Ye Bai scratched his head, feeling that language barriers were really troublesome. Why didn't he trigger any proficiency in 'donkey language'... cough.
Putting aside this outrageous idea, Ye Bai shook his head and said, "Forget it, let's go in first."
The donkey couldn't speak and didn't trigger any tasks, so it was useless for her to be curious at the moment.
"Ah!" The donkey cried, as if responding to Ye Bai.
Ye Bai walked forward a few steps. There was deeper fog at the bottom of the gentle slope. The land was pitch black and there were no plants. There was a faint smell of decay.
It was like a huge mouth, choosing people to devour, filled with an ominous aura.
Ye Bai looked back at the donkey again. It was now following two or three meters behind her and seemed even more stable than her. Not only was it very quiet without making any calls, but even the sound of its footsteps could not be heard. It seemed that it was aware of the danger ahead.
Hesitate...Ye Bai's mouth twitched. It seemed that this guy was more suitable for stealth than her.
As the man and the donkey stepped into the thick fog step by step, the lower the ground became, and they could feel more clearly that the light from above became gloomier.
It was like going from an ordinary foggy day to a gloomy rainy day.
Ye Bai knew that this was a good thing. It was definitely better to explore here during the day than at night.
The Divine Realm is an advanced map, and the entire world is not filled with creatures above level 60. Weak races also live there. Relatively speaking, some dragonborn are strong, and some are weak. Excluding elite monsters and bosses, the basic level is approximately between 40 and 60. If Ye Bai had to face a living dragonborn, he really wouldn't dare to come here.
On the contrary, Ye Bai felt more confident after they died and turned into undead creatures.
Because except for a few powerful ones, undead creatures basically do not appear during the day, and they have a significant weakness, that is, light and fire damage can cause an additional 3 times damage to all undead creatures.
Deep in the thick fog there seemed to be a valley. Ye Bai walked down the slope for more than 30 minutes. It was getting darker and darker, and the surroundings were very quiet. He could not hear anything except the sound of his own footsteps.
From time to time, Ye Bai would look back and see that the donkey was following closely behind her, which gave her a sense of security.
Finally, the slope stopped going downward and began to become flat. Ye Bai felt that he should be approaching the bottom of the valley.
“Crash!”
"ah--!"
Suddenly, Ye Bai felt her feet slip, followed by a feeling of weightlessness. The ground below her suddenly collapsed. She had no time to react and fell down.
"Boom..."
A series of loud noises resounded through the originally quiet valley. Amidst the chaos, Ye Bai immediately took out a magic scroll, ready to activate it at any time.
Falling from a high altitude will also cause damage. Ye Bai's armor is far superior to that of his peers. His equipment is at least rare level or above, and the light feathers have a cushioning and bouncing effect, so his defense in this aspect is very high.
But if the fall is really too big, like a cliff several hundred meters high, any flightless creature that comes will be killed.
Fortunately, this collapse was not a cliff, but more like a small landslide caused by geological influence. After a loud bang, the fall quickly hit the bottom, so that Ye Bai's first death in the game was not a miserable death of "falling off a cliff".
The Light Feather Suit played a very good cushioning role. Ye Bai was safe and sound in the collapse, and only lost more than 30 points of health from the damage caused by being hit by the collapsed rubble around him.
It was pitch black in front of him. With a slight "boom" sound, Ye Bai lit a candle he took out of his backpack.
The candlelight illuminated the surrounding space, and Ye Bai could see the surrounding environment clearly.
Excluding the rubble that fell from the collapse, the surrounding area looks like a man-made tunnel... No, judging from the scratches, it is not necessarily man-made. Considering that this is a gathering place for dragon descendants, it may have been dug by the "Dragon Scale Clan" mentioned by the strange humanoid before.
Ye Bai was probably above the corridor before, but perhaps due to loose geology, a collapse occurred, causing her to fall directly here.
Many dragonborn maintain the habit of living in schools, and their living standards and habits are relatively primitive. This is also a common problem among races with overly powerful individuals. They often cannot develop very advanced technology and civilization because there is no need and they are born to stand at the top of the food chain.
Ye Bai came back to his senses and looked around, his heart skipping a beat.
No, where is the donkey?
Where is the donkey that was jumping around following her just now?
Ye Bai held up the candle and looked up at the top of her head, only to see darkness. A large rock blocked the crack where she had fallen before, maintaining her balance. She didn't know how much rubble was piled up on it.
She continued to search around the rubble with the candle, even turning it over, but still couldn't find a single donkey hair.
Could it be that she was the only one who fell down and the donkey didn’t fall down?
But Ye Bai remembered the movement just now, the scope of the collapse, and the donkey had been following Ye Bai, just two or three meters away from her. It was impossible for it not to fall down together.
Ye Bai was subconsciously not too worried about the donkey's life safety. After all, it was not an ordinary donkey at all. She felt that the donkey might not die even if she died.
So where did the donkey go in such a short time?
It seems that the only thing I can do is explore around here...
Ye Bai looked left and right. The corridor was also sloped. The upward direction was obviously the entrance. Since she had already entered, she naturally chose to go deeper below.
However, Ye Bai did not dare to take the Dragonborn settlement lightly. Holding the magic scroll in his left hand and the snow-colored sword in his right hand, he carefully and silently crossed the rocks and moved forward cautiously.
After walking down more than ten meters, Ye Bai arrived at the end of the corridor.
Ahead is a wider horizontal road, and unlike the rough corridor before, the ground here has large tiles.
Ye Bai carefully walked out of the corridor, stepped onto the rough floor tiles, and looked around.
This road is also an up and down slope with stairs in the middle. Below is a huge slightly open door. Ye Bai's sharp eyes caught sight of two giant dragon sculptures at the gate.
The sculpture symbolizes the worship of dragons. It seems that the strange human figure did not deceive Ye Bai. This is indeed the place where dragons live.
Just as Ye Bai was watching, his eyes suddenly focused and he saw a familiar figure.
A gray donkey jumped out from a hidden corner, and walked towards the gate stealthily with a sly look on its face.
The huge door was ajar, and the two giant dragon sculptures beside it made the donkey look extremely "petite", not even as big as the dragon sculptures' claws.
Ye Bai just watched as the donkey's figure flashed and slipped into the huge gate at an incredible speed.
So that's where it ran to!
Seeing this, Ye Bai was about to catch up, but at this moment he heard a familiar voice next to him:
"Be careful, don't go over there yet!"
