Chapter 29: Trial Talent
After digesting the pterodactyl meat, Gran began to fly and hurry.
He stopped and flew all afternoon, over many hills and woodlands, until it was nearly dusk.
Glenn landed beside a stream that flowed through the woods, which he felt should be safe, and planned to rest here for the night.
The setting sun turns the sky orange, and the sun shines on the water, leaving a trail of water.
Gran walked over to the edge of the stream and observed the water, trying to check if it was normal.
It took a while to temporarily judge that the stream was normal and drinkable.
He lowered his head and took a small sip of water.
The stream was cold and smelled fishy.
Gran took two sips to quench his thirst and didn't continue.
[I'm used to drinking stream water and eating flesh and blood, but if I continue like this, won't I really become a beast?] If I could breathe fire like the red dragon, I could get some cooked food, but unfortunately I can't. 】
Thinking of this, Gran began to reminisce about the past.
The Ilo Wurm can breathe spews sandstone breath, while the Red Dragon breathes fire.
So what can he squirt out of himself?
Gran tried, and found that he could only spit, and there was enough silly.
[I guess what talent is needed to activate it.] 】
In pursuit of the dragon's image, Gran expects to use breath, though it always feels a little strange to squirt something out of her mouth.
Gran then decides to investigate the nearby woods to see if it's really safe.
By the time the survey was finished, the sun had set.
Gran confirmed that there was no danger in the woods and returned to the stream.
He wanted to wash the dirt and blood from the scales on his face, which dried and congealed on the scales, making him a little uncomfortable.
Dip your paws into the stream and carefully rub the dirt off your face.
Gran felt as if there was another sound in his ears, so small that he would be ignored if he didn't pay attention.
Now he knew where the voice came from, from the living element, what the Guri called a goblin.
He couldn't understand these things, he just found them as annoying as mosquitoes.
At this time, Gran remembered that he had activated his talent for elemental perception, and might be able to get closer to the elves.
So he stopped cleaning the scales and began to search for the elf's body.
As a result, a small, blurry spot of light was seen, which was constantly moving.
To be precise, it is not seeing, this point of light is like a system panel, a picture that is directly manifested by consciousness.
[This thing is a goblin? 】
Gran tried to grab it with his claws, but the claws went straight through it.
This point of light has no substance.
Glenn decided to take a closer look at the light.
It took him a while and he got a lot of information.
Gran found that he couldn't see the light if he didn't pay attention to the goblin, which required some effort.
And even if he concentrated, he couldn't understand the fairy language.
And the goblins don't interact with him at all, they just buzz in their ears.
The blue moon in the night sky intersects with the red moon to coincide, and the blue moon completely obscures the red moon and glows blue.
At this moment, the speed of the light point suddenly became much faster.
Gran felt the goblin whisper in her head get louder and louder.
However, it was still not loud to hear at the water source of the Unicorn Forest.
Gran felt that this stream was not as special as the Unicorn Forest, and that the number of elves gathered here was very small.
He also remembered hearing louder elf whispers when he had encountered a purple-blue full moon earlier.
Gran suspects that the two moons possess some kind of power.
For example, when there is a full purple and blue moon, Gran is affected by the moonlight.
Purple Moon's energy healed his wounds and made him hyperactive.
This reminded Gran of something.
When the purple blue moon appeared, the red dragon Red flew high in the sky to do something, only to return to the ground with scars.
He felt that the red dragons might want to emulate those ancestral dragons and open up the heavenly realm.
[Could it be that Ziyue has something to do with returning to the original world? 】
Gran silently noted this point and continued to observe the elf point of light.
The period of intersection of the two months passed quickly, and the point of light returned to its original speed, slowly.
Gran was even more convinced that the moon could affect the elves.
He looked at the point of light and began to guess what the elf could do.
Gran couldn't help but think of some of the Western fantasy novels he had read in his previous life, which often featured goblins using magic to help humans.
[Magic and dragons, I think these two are one of the most attractive things in Western fantasy works, there are dragons in this world, there should also be magic, right? ] 】
He felt like the strange dryads who had manipulated plants to bind the wurms were using magic.
Gran spoke to the goblin, "Goblin, can you use magic?" ”
The goblin didn't respond, he felt that this goblin definitely couldn't understand the dragon language, and speaking it was tantamount to laughing at himself.
Then Gran watched the elf for a while, still without any useful information.
So he gave up observing the goblins and looked for a resting place for the night.
Due to his increased size as he evolved, he felt that he could no longer rest on the branches.
A normal tree can't handle his current weight.
Gran couldn't help but sigh a little when he thought that the tree-climbing and burrowing skills he had honed some time ago were now difficult to use.
But the abilities he got after evolution were too comfortable for him.
It's a pity that I will have to sleep in the open air in the future.
Gran found a meadow that didn't look like animals were passing by, and wanted to rest here.
He looked at the trees around him and wanted to learn from other wild animals.
The method of demarcating the territory made him a little worried.
I knew I wouldn't pee just now, and I used the smell of urine to draw the ground like a dog.
Glenn wasn't very resistant to that.
[I've eaten a lot of raw flesh and blood, and it doesn't matter at all the size of the place! He thought to himself, unethically.
After all, most of the creatures in the world defecate in the open.
He was too lazy to keep this reserved.
It's just that I have already urinated clean just now, so I can't use this method.
Gran's instincts told him that there was another way to go, and he stood by the tree and brewed for a while.
As a result, a breath of stink.
[Wow, what the hell! 】
This directly stunned Gran, who didn't expect his breath to be stinking in his mouth.
Although it is more practical than spitting, it is difficult for him to accept the truth.
Other dragons can breathe fire, or at least sand and gravel, while he can only breathe stench.
Oh no, and a little water.
Gran felt it was silly.
After thinking about it for a while, he felt that this was the effect of the n-level talent's 'stench'.
He got this talent before his first evolution, and at that time he gave up using it because he was struggling with whether the effect would trigger actively.
Now it seems that this talent can be unleashed on its own initiative, and... It stinks.
Gran felt that the smell of the tree would not dissipate for a while, and he did not know how much taste remained in his mouth.
However, aside from the talent itself, the effect of talent does seem to work.
Gran uses this stinking talent to dye nearby trees and warn other animals not to approach.
Then he went back to the stream and rinsed his mouth with water, trying to get rid of the smell in his mouth.
Gran felt like he had been eating raw flesh, and even if he didn't have the talent for stench, his mouth should have tasted.
Therefore, in order to be healthy, I decided to rinse my mouth every day after eating.
Although he didn't think it would be of much use.
Gran then intends to use this stinking talent for foraging.
