Chapter 34: The Dryad's Warehouse

"What is this?"

Gran carefully observed the humanoid footprints.

According to the Red Dragon, there is only one humanoid creature in this world.

The footprints were either from strange monkeys or from dryads.

He picked up the dark hair next to him and put it to his nose.

"A smell of beasts."

Sain said, "This hair is from a wolf? ”

"Well, I think too." Gran stared at the beast's footprints beside him, which were from large canines.

Wolves and dryads. 】

Gran remembered the night he saw the Dryads, when some of the Dryads were mounted by wolves.

He remembered the group of dryads he had seen, and guessed that the traces had something to do with them.

"It's none other than those bark bastards." Sain spoke excitedly.

Gran looked at Sain beside him, and resentment was written in the young dragon's eyes.

[It sounds like it has a grudge against the dryads, so what you want me to help with is not related to the dryads.] But the most important thing now is to shut it up. 】

Gran grabbed Sain's head with his paws, leaned over to it, and whispered:

"I told you not to be silent, to keep your emotions down, and not to expose us to the dryads."

"Blake." Sain was about to say something, but Gran pressed it down on the upper and lower jaws.

Gran whispered to him, "Listen, young dragons who have left the nest, this is not a safe place, we need to be careful and watch every move. ”

Sain regained his composure after listening.

"Well done." Glenn thinks children should love to be complimented.

Then Gran looked in the direction of the footprints, and he decided to follow the trail of the dryad.

"Sain, you stay here... Forget it, come with me. ”

Gran felt it dangerous to leave Sain alone in the forest, so he chose to take him with him.

"Climb on my back, and if something happens, we'll fly out of here."

Sain obediently climbed onto Gran's back and put his arms around his neck.

Gran instructed the young dragon, "You must not speak unless there is an emergency, this is for your safety and mine." ”

So he began to follow the dryads' tracks.

The further you go, the more cluttered your footprints become.

It can be seen that many dryads have been in and out of the area with wild beasts.

And the trails are fresh, and they don't have a long history of leaving traces.

Glenn saw some yellowish-white debris next to the footprint, exuding a faint fragrance.

He thought it tasted a lot like cookies from his previous life.

Gran didn't think the cookie was poisonous, and he put it in his mouth and tasted it with nostalgia.

The taste is terrible bitter.

Gran felt the system react, and he turned it on.

Gain 2 points by eating 'Dryad Cake'.

This yellow and white crumb is called 'Dryad Cake'.

This is the food of the dryads.

At this point, Gran caught a howl with his keen sense of hearing.

It was bitter and long, it was the howl of a giant wolf.

[The distance is about two hundred meters, there should be many dryads near the giant wolf, you have to get out of this place quickly.] 】

"Sayne, hold on to me, let's fly to the sky."

"Well, what's wrong?" Sain didn't hear the wolf howl and didn't understand Gran's actions.

"Hold on, anyway." Gran didn't bother to explain to Sain, and his attention was all on the dryads.

Sain obediently did so, and he spread his wings and flew into the sky.

Gran hovered in the air with the help of the nighttime wind, his gaze sweeping across the trees.

Staying in the air may become a target, but staying in the woods is likely to be unleashed by the dryads.

Gran saw white dots of light in the woods, which were the direction of the wolf's howl.

The dryads are probably there.

Wondering about the information, he got there to see clearly.

Approaching from his current height, he was likely to be shot into a sieve by the dryad with a bow and arrow, and he needed to increase his height.

Gran cared about the little guy on his back, "Sain, I'll fly higher later, can you afford it?" ”

"I can bear it." Sain's tone was trembling, and it was afraid of being carried high into the air.

Gran could hear that it was reluctant, so he said, "If I can't stand it, I can put you back in the forest first." ”

"I'm fine."

"Okay, you said it yourself."

Gran wasn't going to convince Sain to change his mind and start rising to height.

"Wow, wow, wow..."Thine was frightened by the wind, but he still held on to Gran and didn't dare to let go.

Gran flew above the white light and stared at what was below.

The source of the white light was the illumination used by the dryads, which was tied to a branch.

The dryads cut down trees in the woods and built rudimentary houses.

This struck Gran as odd.

[The dryad has bark on it, so I didn't expect it to cut down trees. 】

There were some dryads holding giant wolves next to them, and most of them had animal skin wraps on their backs.

Glenn noticed the dryads' behavior.

[What is this transporting?] 】

A dryad opens the package, revealing a yellowish-white lump inside.

The dryad broke the lump open and stuffed it into his mouth.

It nodded to the other dryads and closed the package.

The other dryads took the package from the wolf and carried it into the house.

Gran believed that the lumps were the so-called 'dryad cakes', which were where the dryads stored their food.

At this moment, the sound of a horn suddenly sounded, which startled Gran, who thought he had been discovered.

It turned out that another group of dryads had brought the giant wolf here.

Some of the wolves carried bundles of spears with gray ore heads, and some carried bags of arrows.

It's all weapons used by the dryads.

[It's not just storing food, it's also storing weapons.] This is the storehouse of the dryads, a very important place. 】

Gran looked around for some references and made a note of the place.

At this time, a giant wolf spotted Gran in the air.

It howls wolf, attracting the attention of its companions.

That's when the dryads discovered Gran.

One of the dryads blew their horns, removed their longbows, and aimed them at Gran above.

"Blake, the bark bastards have spotted us!" Sain exclaimed.

"I know, so it's time to run away."

The dryads let go of their bowstrings, and the arrows flew straight towards Gran.

Gran quickly increased his altitude, barely avoiding the arrows.

"Oh my God, if only their weapons were of higher quality, it would be over." Gran was in a very uneasy mood at this time, and he underestimated the bow and arrow of the dryad.

Although it is far less than the ancient longbow, it is still powerful.

And the young dragon Sain was in a worse mood than Gran

"Sain, don't let fear hold you back. Hold on to me, and we'll get out of the way. ”

"Got it." Sain spoke loudly, then spat at the dryads and raised a middle finger.

"Flyless guys, bye-bye."

Gran immediately flew in the other direction, denouncing Sain as he flew.

"Damn, why are you provoking them, what if you anger them."

"But my mother taught me to treat the dryads like this, anyway, Blake, you are the son of the first dragon, you will be able to easily deal with them!" Sain has a lot of faith in Gran.

Gran had a big head, and he didn't know how long he could run away in the air, and as a result, Sain was out of trouble.

He complained in his heart: "I can be a ghost. Alas, even the young dragon is so aggressive, the dragon species is really troublesome. 】

The dryads saw that Seon was defiant, which made them furious.

Several dryads mounted the wolf and chased in the direction of Gran and their departure.
