As David Jones was still wondering if there were dragon eggs in the stone chamber, Rainbow excitedly screamed.

“Eeek!” (a _ a)-& (Tomato scrambled dragon eggs!)

She knew that her Trainer’s favorite home-cooked dish was tomato scrambled eggs, while her personal favorite was David’s secret recipe grilled fish.

Even though they had just eaten not long ago, the thought of grilled fish made Rainbow unconsciously lick her mouth with her forked tongue.

Since she arrived in this Dungeon, she hadn’t even had any snacks after dinner!

Bending down to pick up the backpack from the ground, David couldn’t help but glance at Rainbow beside him.

What kind of family was this! Eating dragon eggs?

Although he always had tomato scrambled eggs when he ate, he wouldn’t be extravagant enough to use a dragon egg for that dish.

David carefully searched the stone chamber for more than half an hour, and in the end, he regretfully found that there was not even a single dragon hair, let alone a dragon egg.

This place seemed not to be a relic of a True Dragon at all. To be precise, it should be the nest of a Dog-headed Ape.

According to the usual practice, Beasts that have not appeared on Blue Star before are named by the discoverer.

David wasn’t good at naming, so the so-called Dog-headed Ape was actually just a simple nickname he gave to the stone statue Beasts.

After finding no resources, David’s gaze returned to the text and murals on the stone wall.

Although these murals and texts were unpretentious and slightly rough, they might have a high research value in themselves.

After thinking about it, David took out his phone from his pocket, and then began to take pictures of the stone wall one by one.

Walking back and forth, David took hundreds of pictures.

After taking the pictures, David touched his chin, thought for a while at the spot, and then muttered to himself, “Through these texts and murals, it feels more like this is a place for the Dog-headed Ape group to worship the True Dragon!”

“It seems that these Dog-headed Apes have some intelligence, but not much!”

David couldn’t help but complain. How could a place of worship be set up in such a narrow room?

Considering the huge size of the Divine Dragon, it definitely couldn’t fit in here, and it probably wouldn’t even notice such a remote corner!

Such offerings truly left David somewhat puzzled.

Although he couldn’t see these unfamiliar Beasts with his own eyes, through several murals, David found that these Dog-headed Apes not only had dog heads growing on their heads, but they also acted like a real “lick dog” (flatterer).

In order to get closer to the god they regarded as supreme, many Dog-headed Apes got themselves frozen solid and destroyed by the ice breath of the Ice Dragon.

Even so, they still treated the Ice Dragon like a deity, seeing their bodies being sealed in ice by the Divine Dragon as a kind of glory.

The two stone sculptures at the jade door outside were made of frozen Dog-headed Apes mixed with mud.

David shook his head; it was just his speculation, and the reality might be different from that.

“Eeeeh?” G>( ? o ? )? (Are those bones worth money?)

Rainbow looked at the mountain of Beast skeletons under the jade platform with curiosity.

“We don’t need to touch things that aren’t worth money!”

David glanced over there, where a few withered corpses still retained a relatively intact shape.

Some Beast remains could be used to refine elixirs, but those bones had gone through such a long time that they were obviously unusable!

“Let’s go outside to rest.” David looked at Rainbow and said.

“Eeek?” (Aren’t we going to spend the night here?)

“It’s better to spend the night at the entrance. Although the probability of a landslide here is very low, I want to be cautious.”

A faint smile appeared on David’s face; he was very satisfied with the harvest tonight.

“Eek!” (‘?«?’) (Alright!)

David and Rainbow returned to the jade door statue and then closed the switch at the bottom of the statue.

“Creak creak creak…” The heavy sound of the sliding stone door echoed in the quiet cave.

At the top of the stone chamber, the Luminescent Stones were still emitting bright light. Suddenly, a figure appeared on the empty ground. Maybe it had been waiting here for a long time.

It only revealed the upper half of its body, with a cluster of green leaves on its head, and its lower half buried in the soil. It seemed to be able to swim freely in the mud.

A pair of translucent green eyes full of curiosity continued to watch David and Rainbow’s retreating figures until the jade door fell completely, blocking its sight.

As a result, the light in those big eyes dimmed a bit.

“Chirp.”

A barely audible whisper sounded in the empty stone chamber. Its eyes showed a trace of loneliness.

Standing still, as if thinking of something, it tilted its head, its spirit perked up a bit, and then its body slowly sank into the ground, disappearing from sight.

In the blink of an eye, the stone chamber returned to its previous calm.

Meanwhile, Rainbow’s body stiffened slightly, and she looked at the closed jade door in surprise.

“Eek!” ￡( ‘A ‘ )? (There was a strange noise just now!)

Upon hearing this, David was suddenly alarmed, his face changed drastically, and he turned to look at the door behind him.

“What kind of sound? Can you detect the enemy’s location?”

David’s face was full of vigilance at this moment, and then he asked with a serious look in his eyes.

Was there an unknown dangerous Beast hiding in this place?

“Eeek!” (‘A ‘ )? (Not anymore!)

After sensing something, Rainbow shook her head doubtfully, as if the slight noise just now was an accident.

After thinking for a moment, David did not choose to go back and open the door but left directly.

Since the opponent hadn’t attacked first, it also meant it was quite wary of Rainbow’s strength. The power gap between the two sides should not be too big!

But, facing such a skilled hidden Assassin, David, who had a weak body, decided to leave. He didn’t want to deliver a rich package to an unknown Beast.

“Let’s go; we’ll go back to the entrance first.”

Because he walked the path once, it took him much less time to return to the entrance, and he only spent half an hour to get there.

Outside the cave, the heavy snow had stopped, and the bright moon was hanging high in the sky.

“Rainbow, let’s continue our journey while it’s not snowing!”

David looked back at the dark cave and never doubted Rainbow’s words, so now he just wanted to find another place to spend the night.

“Let’s fly.”

David picked up Rainbow and bent his legs slightly before leaping into the air.

After flying for more than ten minutes, they landed on a small hill.

“We should have shaken it off!”

David let out a deep breath of relief, wiping the cold sweat at his temples before touching the ground.

Being constantly vigilant from the jade door to here was very exhausting.

Ultimately, for David, the scariest thing was a Beast that hid in the dark!
