Chapter 14 The First Encounter with Human Beings

The shadow disappeared in an instant.

"The duel is over. You win. Congratulations! You are one step closer to me. Choose your reward." The old voice said. And then the English characters appeared in front of him again.

"Rare blessing: Permanent spiritual attack defense skill. It could resist the temptation of demon or dragon majesty of a giant dragon."

"Rare item: Muscle ring. It was the head ring forged by the dwarf. Some dwarfs gave the head rings to giant dragons as gifts. If the red dragon put the ring on its claw or tail, it would increase the strength of its claw attack or tail sweeping."

"Rare item: Invisibility potion. Warning: Don't drink all the medicine in one breath, or your existence will become thin."

Were they three rare-level rewards? He suddenly understood the meaning of this duel. He had already thought that since the skull said that he and Tiffany had been reborn into this world. Then he could just find the other party and kill her directly. Why did he have to make this duel? It turned out that there were so many rewards for a duel.

The third one seemed to be much more tempting than the second one. Invisibility was such a powerful skill that it could save his life at a critical moment. And the invisibility potion could be used more than once.

But he'd better choose the first one. This skill could make him less flustered when facing the dragon mother. And it was a rare permanent skill.

"The next duel will be held in a month. You'd better prepare yourself."

Then, the dream came to an end. Neigher returned to the forest.

Neigher was wondering when he could meet a human in reality. This moment came earlier than he had imagined.

In the morning, he strolled alone in the forest. He sent the wolves to flatter Yane if there was nothing else. Because he was afraid of being pestered by Yane again.

At this moment, a voice suddenly came from afar. It was a language that Neigher had never heard before!

He quickly hid into the low bushes and the pile of leaves, carefully observing where the sound came from. What surprised him was that he saw two human men walking side by side!

Because he had experienced the magic that Tiffany had used in the duel. He didn't dare to approach an adult man easily. A child of 7 or 8 years old was so powerful. How powerful an adult could be?

"It doesn't matter. I will meet humans sooner or later. I just need to prepare to deal with them."

The conversation of the two humans came from afar. At first, Neigher didn't understand what they meant. But later, he could understand their language slowly. The inherited memories of the red dragon were extremely powerful.

"Are you sure it's this kind of tree?"

"I'm sure."

"You'd better make up your mind. I don't want to go to such a deep forest again."

"Yes, I'm sure. You can use magic to teleport the tree away. Hurry up. We have to return to the city before dark."

The two humans were dressed in very ordinary, white clothes.

After saying that, one of the humans began to recite a series of obscure syllables. A black ring suddenly appeared under a crooked tree in front of them. Then the whole tree seemed to have lost its foundation and fell into the black hole.

When the magic was over, the place where the tree was turned into a big pit.

It was magic! He couldn't take his eyes off the magic. He was curious about what human society was like in this world full of magic.

However, when they were about to finish their task, Neigher still withdrew his head and listened to them. Because he didn't know the relationship between the human and the red dragon.

Besides, he was so big that he could only observe them through the gap of the bushes. Anyway, he couldn't act rashly, let alone make a sound.

"Brother, they..." Yane, who was chasing after him, had already followed him. She pointed to the distance, indicating that she had also discovered those humans. The clear dragon language sounded particularly harsh in this quiet forest.

Stupid teammate!

Neigher cursed in his heart. Then he immediately held Yane in his arms and covered her mouth with one hand.

"What sound?"

"Yes, I heard it too."

"Wait a minute. Don't worry about the tree now. The voice came from there. I've told you that this forest is very weird."

"I also heard that there are always adventure teams that never come back..."

The two men heard what Yane said just now. And they began to suspect the bush Neigher hid in.

Yane's mouth was covered. She looked at her brother in bewilderment. Neigher looked into Yane's eyes and shook his head, indicating her not to make any sound. He didn't know if she could understand.

At the same time, the two humans stopped their work and began to look in the direction of the sound.

As time passed, the air was filled with tension. Neigher was extremely concentrated, observing the movements of the two through the shade of the tree.

"Are we just waiting here?" One of them said after a long time.

"Well... But I still care about the sound. Let's go and have a look."

Neigher cursed in his heart.

He had expected the worst to happen. The two of them were slowly approaching here.

Damn it! He should have asked the dragon mother about humans before he went out. There was no such knowledge in the memory of the original owner. But Neigher had a faint feeling that he could not be discovered by humans anyway. The greedy and evil red dragon should not have a good reputation in the human race. The two humans might attack him with a big fireball at first sight.

Damn it! There was human language in the inherited memory. Why didn't it introduce more about humans?

He quickly ran all the possibilities in his mind and was ready for the worst battle. He didn't hide well. As long as they got close, he might be seen. He had set up contact information with the tiger and wolves. He could summon them with a dragon roar. If he fought with them, the tiger and wolves should be good helpers.

Yane, whose mouth was covered by a hand, seemed to understand something and looked out of the bushes quietly.

The footsteps of two human beings were getting closer and closer. They carried axes and slowly walked towards the bushes. Neigher held his breath, but the sound of his heart gradually became louder.

Suddenly, one of them glanced at the bushes!
