It was late at night in The Plane of Dreams. On the cool, breezy prairie, Hao Ren and a huge black wolf that was as tall as a human looked at each other. Both of them were shocked, so the shock was not over yet.
Just now, the black wolf, which Hao Ren thought was a "wild animal", spoke clearly and sharply, with a slight Beijing accent. Of course, this last point should be attributed to the AI translation system. Hao Ren firmly believed that no matter how strange a place like The Plane of Dreams was, it would not be able to breed a big black wolf that spoke in Beijing accents. However, even with the AI translation system, he was sure that the wolf just spoke in human language, and not the roar of a beast translated into human language by the translation system. This was something that had been tested. The translation system could not translate Lily's "woof"... It could only deal with high-level languages with language structure.
Hao Ren sat on the grass in his pajamas. His body was still shrouded in a faint glimmer. He did not dare to withdraw his Steel Membrane Shield because the surrounding wolves did not look safe. He glanced at the big black wolf opposite him, and his voice was a little surprised. "You can really talk? All the wolves in this place can talk? "
"That depends on the pack." The big black wolf glanced at the transparent light film on Hao Ren's body with fear. The fist covered in this light film made it feel like being hit on the head by a steel column. It barely recovered from the dizziness, so it was very cooperative with Hao Ren's question. "Some of the prairie wolves can talk, such as us, who have bony plates on our bodies. We are an excellent breed, much smarter than those idiots who only know how to howl at the moon! But where did you come from? You've never even seen a wolf that can talk? We are the most famous pack in this prairie! "
Hao Ren's mind was in a mess. He had no idea what was going on in The Plane of Dreams. He could only follow the advice of the MDT and Raven 12345. No matter what he saw, he took it for granted and tried not to show too much surprise. Based on the way the big black wolf spoke, he judged that it was highly intelligent, perhaps even comparable to a human. So, he put away the mentality of fooling the wolf as a beast and nodded sincerely. "I don't know where I come from, I'm just passing by. Just treat me as a traveler."
"Traveler? Come to this prairie? " The big black wolf looked at Hao Ren suspiciously, its face showing a very vivid expression of disbelief. "Humans rarely come here. This place is useless to you. You can't grow food, there are no local specialties, and there are no ores, no ores. There used to be some herdsmen, but they moved away recently. There are too many wolves in this place, and they don't have enough livestock to eat."
When the big black wolf finished, it came closer under the watchful eyes of Hao Ren. It sniffed Hao Ren up and down. "You don't look like a traveler. You don't have that strange smell of not bathing for a long time. But it's up to you. Anyway, it has nothing to do with us. We're just wolves. "
Hao Ren wiped the cold sweat off his forehead. Was a wolf that smart to this extent still a "wolf"?
"Why did you attack me?" Hao Ren asked awkwardly. He felt that he must be very stupid to talk to a group of wild animals. But then again... who would have thought that a wolf could talk better than a human?
"Why can't we attack you?" The black wolf's voice was even more surprised. "We want to eat meat. Although you don't look like much, it's enough for us to feed a few pups. We don't eat much. But I thought you would be easy to deal with. You're not wearing those hard clothes, and you don't have any weapons in your hands. But you're even stronger than those guys. I'm not happy about that. "
This wolf was different from humans in some ways. It was very straightforward and said whatever was on his mind. Hao Ren was speechless for a few seconds about his status as "food" in the wolf's eyes. But considering the species of the wolf, he could not get angry. He could only laugh dryly. "Hehe, do you still want to eat meat?"
"No." The black wolf shook its head. "Too hard. Harder than those people in hard clothes. And I can't beat you. It seems that I really can't fight with humans. You guys always have too many strange things on you. It's very dangerous. "
At this time, another smaller black wolf suddenly said, "Boss, didn't you come up with the idea to eat this man in the first place?"
Hao Ren looked at the black wolf in front of him in surprise. He thought that this guy was the leader of the pack. He had chosen a good target when he subconsciously pounced on it.
"Who asked you to wake up in the middle of the night and say you're hungry?" The black wolf leader roared. "I ate meat in the afternoon and I'm as full as a ball. The moon just came up and I started to say I'm hungry. You're the only one in the whole tribe who eats the most! Because of this, I even had my teeth knocked out! "
"Boss, you only lost one. There are a few unlucky ones over there who almost lost all their teeth." The smaller Good-for-Nothing Wolf pointed its nose at a few black wolves squatting outside the circle. They were the unlucky ones who had taken the initiative to bite Hao Ren. These unlucky guys had bitten the Steel Membrane Shield, and now they had regained their baby-like teeth. In the best case, they only had two rows of molars left.
The mouths of the unlucky ones were full of blood. They could only squat outside the circle and lick each other's fur to comfort each other. They looked extremely pitiful.
The wolf king lowered its head and sighed. "Today is just bad luck. Human, can we go now? "
"Oh." Hao Ren nodded. But just as the wolves were about to disperse, he suddenly remembered something and quickly shouted, "Wait! I still have something to do! "
The alpha wolf's footsteps faltered as it turned its head and glared at Hao Ren. "Don't go too far! I am also unyielding and dignified! You didn't really lose anything. Do you have to be so unforgiving? "
Hao Ren almost choked on his words: "Do you dare to spare my life?" The alpha wolf was not fit to use the word "dignity". But he just shook his head and pointed to the horizon. "I'm going there. Can you give me a lift?"
The shadows of the suspected man-made houses looked really far away. Hao Ren felt that it would take him until tomorrow morning to run there barefoot. He could only stay in The Plane of Dreams for a limited time, so he wanted to find a convenient way.
"Over there?" The wolf king looked up, puzzled. "Didn't I say that the herdsmen are gone? There are only a few mud sheds left."
It turned out that it was the place where the herdsmen lived. Hao Ren nodded. "I'll go and have a look."
It did not matter if there were people there or not. What mattered was that there were traces of human activity. Hao Ren was now curious about everything in The Plane of Dreams. He was willing to take a look at anything.
The wolf king mumbled something in its throat, then turned around and said, "Okay, come on up. I'll carry you there."
Hao Ren was a little surprised. He thought it would take a lot of persuasion, but he did not expect the wolf king to turn around and let him ride it. This was not what he expected. He climbed on the back of the wolf king and said, "So generous? Didn't they say that people like you don't want to be ridden? It's a matter of dignity. You have to go through a test or something... "
"Dignity? What's that for? " The wolf king was puzzled by Hao Ren's words. "You humans are so complicated. You study things that have nothing to do with filling your stomach. We don't like to be ridden on our backs because it's troublesome to walk with things on your back. But what does this have to do with dignity? It's just uncomfortable... Hey, move forward a little, or lean back a little. Don't ride on my waist. I can't run like that. "
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation While adjusting his sitting position, Hao Ren was speechless. Human studies had gone awry. Whether it was in novels or movies, everything was measured by human standards. Wolves did not want to be ridden because they were proud. Wild horses did not want to be ridden because they were proud. Unicorns did not want to be ridden because they were not only proud but also noble.
The only reason they don't want to be ridden is because it's too troublesome. Who would want to carry dozens of kilograms of food and drink on their back when they were walking? Vivian tied luggage on Lily while the latter was sleepwalking.
Hao Ren could not help but think that if unicorns could communicate, maybe they would let you ride them if you gave them two biscuits. For animals, what was the "dignity theory" of humans?
"Are you seated?" The wolf king suddenly interrupted Hao Ren's thoughts. "Then hold on tight. Let's go!"
