Chapter 602 I'm No Ordinary Dragon Cubs! 7
Slowly, Zhao Zhao lay sprawled out in Nali's huge dragon's den and fell asleep to Yue's nostalgic murmurs.
This was the first time he had ever dreamed since birth. The scene in the dream was extremely unfamiliar, with elegant and powerful phoenixes circling in the azure sky.
Their eyes all looked down, filled with tenderness and affection as they gazed at themselves struggling to look up at the ground.
"Yue..."
Zhao Zhao groggily kicked her foot and woke up with a start. Her soft, ahoge (cowlick) stood up on her head, making her look adorably silly.
"Wake up!" He patted the red egg next to his bottom and told him to get up.
"What are you doing?" The cub's voice was choked with emotion. Zhao Zhao, who knew his next move, immediately spoke up to stop his magic.
"Don't cry!"
“I’m so bored, play with me,” Neri’s words finally made Zhao Zhao wary of the outside world. However, the naturally active cub couldn’t stay still, so he set his sights on the Dragon Cave. “We won’t go out, we’ll just play in the Dragon Cave.”
Her clear, bright eyes shifted slightly, sweeping over the ridiculously large cave.
Zhao Zhao's eyes lit up; he guessed that there must be many hidden treasures in the dark of this cave that had not yet been discovered.
Dragons are inherently greedy and love to explore for treasure.
"It's not fun, I don't want to play." Yue didn't want to talk to him.
His personality was the opposite of Zhao Zhao's; he was indifferent to matters of money and possessions.
But being just an egg, he was destined to be unable to defy Zhao Zhao's wishes.
"Let's go, let's go, stop dawdling."
Zhao Zhao casually tucked the red phoenix egg into her bosom, her figure, poised to dash into the treasure trove, suddenly spotted a black phoenix egg in the corner.
Alone in the corner, it had neither spiritual power nor the ability to move like Yue.
He muttered to himself, "Why is Black Egg so different from you?" and casually stuffed it into his pocket as well.
Perhaps they were born to be incompatible; the moment the red egg touched the black egg, he immediately gathered his strength and kicked the black egg out of Zhao Zhao's arms.
"Don't come near me... I hate him."
The black egg rolled twice on the ground and then stopped moving. Zhao Zhao's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly went forward to check if the eggshell was damaged.
Fortunately, the black egg was as hard as iron.
"Hey! You idiot!" He frowned and scolded Yue, "If you keep doing this, I'll teach you a lesson!"
Disciplining the troublesome Yue seems to be his instinct.
At this inopportune moment, Yue thought of Zhao Zhao of the Phoenix Clan.
His thoughts wandered, and at that moment, Zhao Zhao seemed to still be inside the phoenix egg.
Zhao Zhao had thick black hair. Suddenly, he thought of something and chuckled. His fair, chubby fingers ruffled his hair, turning it into a messy bird's nest.
As its name suggests, it has indeed become a bird's nest.
So he placed the black egg on his head and happily carried the black egg and the red egg in his pocket as he "treasure hunted" in the huge cave.
The treasures on the surface of the dragon cave are countless, and those buried underground and hidden in corners amount to tens of millions. Zhao Zhao didn't need to put in much effort to dig out a huge pile from the ground.
The ground in the dragon cave was hard, and the cub's claws were too fragile. Soon, Zhao Zhao began to clutch her hands and cry out in pain.
"Silly dragon, stop digging." Yue said lazily, in a childish voice.
Zhao Zhao looked at him excitedly as he dug out several large pieces of gold, her eyes brimming with tears. He said in a light tone, "What do you know!"
The little phoenix egg had no idea how excited the dragons were about the treasure.
"Okay, okay, I don't care. Just don't yell at me if your hand breaks."
Yue didn't want to do these silly things with him, so she simply shut down her mental energy and went to sleep.
The connection that had suddenly appeared in her mind suddenly disappeared, but Zhao Zhao didn't find it strange.
The little dragon cub dragged its big tail behind it, looking at this hole and crawling into that hole, even the ground was full of pits and holes of all sizes.
In the end, his claws were in so much pain.
"Hoohoo!"
Zhao Zhao blew on her little paws, which were covered in mud. Neri had only been gone for a few hours, and the cub was already filthy.
[Little one, do you really like treasure that much?]
The system in my mind, which had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke in a kind tone.
[Your mental strength has improved a lot recently. If your hands hurt, don't use your hands; try using your mental strength to find treasure.]
The host's mental capacity has decreased significantly, and his mind is filled with childlike playfulness. As for the development of the dragon cub's innate abilities such as mental strength, the system can only provide some assistance.
"Mental strength?"
During this period, he always felt a surge of power within him. Sometimes, when he simply raised his hand or exerted force, he felt this power burst forth.
Fortunately, Zhao Zhao managed to suppress it at that time.
"Then let me try?"
Zhao Zhao is very interested in anything new.
He closed his eyes, and his invisible spiritual energy spread from the cub. Slowly, the cub's clear and bright eyes opened excitedly, and it exclaimed, "I've found a treasure!"
Using mental power to find treasures is indeed more convenient and efficient than doing it manually.
The more he went into the massive dragon cave, the more winding and twisting it became. Zhao Zhao's spiritual power guided him in that direction like a thread, but when he reached the depths, he found only a dusty, gray crystal bead inside.
"Huh? That's it!"
On his journey to find this broken bead, Zhao Zhao saw countless treasures that were even more dazzling than it, but none of them were the treasure he so desperately desired.
He complained about it, but the moment he saw the crystal bead, he ran up to it and clung to it tightly.
"Wow!" The cub lay sprawled on the crystal bead, which was as tall as itself. The thick layer of dust on it was wiped away, revealing the cub's shape in the shape of the Chinese character "大" (big).
Correspondingly, Zhao Zhao's clothes, which were already covered in mud, became even dirtier and more unsightly.
The system chuckled: "Host, didn't you say you didn't like it?"
"I don't understand what you're talking about."
Zhao Zhao chuckled and tried to lift the large crystal bead with her small body, her whole face scrunched up in a grimace.
Suddenly he stopped in his tracks, turned his head with delight, and saw Neri, whose expression he couldn't see clearly from the shadows, quietly watching him without moving.
"Neri!"
Zhao Zhao had no idea what it meant to read facial expressions and auras. Like a butterfly, she pounced on the man in red: "I want this!"
He pouted and pointed disapprovingly at the dirty crystal bead: "It's too heavy, can you help me carry it?"
After a while, Neri's slightly hoarse voice finally came through the quiet air: "How did you end up here?"
This is deep within the Dragon Cave. Even Nari hasn't been here for a very long time. Unexpectedly, Zhao Zhao found her way here and even spotted the crystal bead.
The crystal bead was the weapon of their former dragon lord, and it has been kept here ever since the dragon lord left.
The cub's spiritual energy spread throughout its body, and Neri felt as comfortable as if she were in water when she touched the fluctuations.
Even though his heart was churning with turmoil, he didn't show it on his face at all.
Neri patiently squatted down and gently brushed away the dust from Zhao Zhao's face with her well-defined knuckles.
"You have great taste, little one. How about I teach you how to play with this toy later?"
The crystal bead is an object that can predict the future and recall the past, but only the Ancestral Dragon, who is born with the ability to travel through time and space, can exert this power.
"it is good!"
Zhao Zhao's dusty face lit up with surprise; she couldn't wait to play.
Neri grabbed his wrist, her gentle gaze sweeping over Zhao Zhao from head to toe: "Little one, why are you so dirty?"
He chuckled lightly, his eyes filled with tenderness.
