There was a thick layer of ash on the ground. Gao Peng walked up to it. The ash was still warm.
After stirring the ash for a while, he felt something hard with the back of his hand. He quickly took it out.
It was the monster core crystal of the Golden-rimmed Dandelion Tree Demon. It was the size of a goose egg and was green in color. It looked translucent and shiny.
Monster crystal cores contained extremely rich elements, and there was a strong exclusivity between the elements.
Therefore, elemental attacks could not damage a monster core crystal. Only physical attacks could.
This monster core crystal was from a rare plant-type monster, and it was from a Commander-tier monster. It could be sold for thousands of credits on the market.
Furthermore, only monster trainers who were in urgent need of money would sell it. Ordinary monster trainers would use it to barter.
After that, he found a cave. Although it was called a cave, it was actually a crack in the mountain. The crack was about five or six meters deep.
It used to be the nest of an Adamantine Duck, but now it was being used by Gao Peng.
"Quack! Quack! "The Adamantine Duck was jumping outside its own cave.
This is my home! My home!
You are a bunch of hooligans!
Annoyed by the noise, Gao Peng waved his hand impatiently. "Let me borrow your lair for a day. Don't make any more noise. Hurry up and leave while my familiars aren't hungry."
The Adamantine Duck's eyes were wide open. It was not afraid of Gao Peng's threat. It raised its neck and quacked loudly. "Quack, quack, quack!"
"Quack!" Gao Peng replied. It was so embarrassing that it called out the wrong way.
"Quack? Quack? Quack? Quack, quack, quack! " After being led astray by Gao Peng, the Adamantine Duck chewed on its words. It felt like … like this human was calling out the right way?!
Boom!
It was as if a bolt of lightning had struck.
The Adamantine Duck stood rooted to the spot in disbelief.
How could its voice not sound like a human's?
Am I the duck, or are you the duck?
The Adamantine Duck seemed to have discovered a great secret. It approached the cave sneakily.
It stood outside the cave and observed Gao Peng.
Although the Adamantine Duck had a fiery temper and a stubborn personality, no one had ever seen a Adamantine Duck eat a person.
Gao Peng naturally saw such an obvious head poking out of the cave, but he couldn't be bothered. He secretly instructed his subdued beasts not to let down their guard, then took out his sleeping bag and went to sleep.
When the Adamantine Duck saw Gao Peng take out such a big sleeping bag from Silly's body, its eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
She stared at Silly for a while and then at Gao Peng for a while.
Its two beaks were wide open, making it look like a dumb duck.
Flamy was delighted to see such an ignorant country bumpkin. She felt a sense of superiority. Just taking out a sleeping bag and you're already so surprised.
Dumb, who had been sitting at the entrance of the cave all night, got up and walked into the cave.
He patted the sleeping bag to remind its master that it was time.
Gao Peng opened his eyes and yawned. He raised his left hand and looked at the time. It was half past five in the morning.
He lay in the sleeping bag for another ten minutes, then opened his eyes and opened the sleeping bag.
Outside the cave, the Adamantine Duck, who hadn't slept all night, stared into the cave with two dark circles under its eyes.
It's coming! The Adamantine Duck opened its eyes wide and trembled with excitement.
That's it! That's it!
When it saw Gao Peng push the sleeping bag into Silly's space, the Adamantine Duck was even more excited.
Its two feet stomped on the ground, and the tip of its tail wagged excitedly.
He swallowed a little bit of salt in his mouth, then added some saliva into his mouth. As he walked past the Adamantine Duck, he patted it on the head and spat out some salt water. He then said slowly, "Don't look at it. You won't be able to learn it."
"Quack?" The dumb duck, no, the Adamantine Duck, stared at Gao Peng blankly.
Gao Peng smiled and called his subdued beasts. "Let's go. We'll try to reach our destination today."
Then he said to the Adamantine Duck, "Silly thing, if you see any humans in the future, you might die without knowing why."
The Adamantine Duck was indeed brave. It didn't run away when it saw Gao Peng.
…
"Master, I'm hungry. I want to eat duck," Abba said, feeling wronged.
"Hungry? Eat duck! Eat duck! "Da Zi interrupted.
"Why are you hungry? Dumb carried you the whole time." Gao Peng was speechless.
"You rode Abba," Da Zi retorted. "I learned from you! I learned from you! "
"…"
Gao Peng turned his head to look behind him, puzzled. Behind him, a yellow duck half the height of a human, with a dull look on its face, was running wildly. Its two wings were flapping wildly, making a flapping sound.
Seeing Gao Peng turn around, the Adamantine Duck's eyes lit up. "Quack, quack, quack …"
Without a Blood Contract, Gao Peng couldn't understand what the Adamantine Duck was saying.
Gao Peng frowned. What's wrong with this duck?
"Master. It's calling you, "Flamy suddenly said.
"You can understand it?" Gao Peng looked at Flamy in surprise.
"I'm a Level 8 Bird Speaker," Flamy said proudly.
"What's it calling?" Gao Peng was curious.
"It's saying, 'Duck, wait for me. Duck, wait for me.'" Flamy pursed her lips. "Gao Peng, I bet you're not a duck."
"Of course I'm not."
Gao Peng was annoyed. Did the Adamantine Duck think he was a duck? Why?
Was it just because he helped it correct its accent yesterday?
After running and flying for so long, the Adamantine Duck was at its limit. When it suddenly spoke, it lost its balance.
It flapped its wings and fell into the grass with a thump. It rolled a few times on the ground.
The Adamantine Duck was covered in dirt.
"Oh … That weird duck is gone too … I knew it. It doesn't like me …"
The Adamantine Duck buried its head in the grass. It felt numb all over, as if all its energy had been sucked out. Its mind was blank.
Suddenly, the Adamantine Duck felt light. It was being lifted up.
"Hey, it's Li! Big duck! "The Adamantine Duck looked up and saw Gao Peng, who was speechless.
Flamy couldn't wait to act as a translator.
"Shut up. I don't want to hear your translation." Gao Peng pinched Flamy's mouth.
"Why did you follow me?"
"Quack, quack, quack."
"Why did you follow me?"
"Quack, quack, quack."
"Is that the only thing you know?"
"Quack, quack, quack."
"…"
"Okay. You translate. "Gao Peng let go of Flamy's hand.
As soon as he let go, Flamy said eagerly, "It said, 'Big duck. I knew you wouldn't leave me behind.'"
With Flamy as the translator, the conversation between man and duck became much smoother.
Gao Peng learned that the Adamantine Duck had been abandoned by its parents when it was born. It had been living alone until now.
