Chapter 1309 - 1305
"Ahem... Host, let me formally introduce myself, I come from..."
Ginsengfruit imagined his shining moment, but before he could get to the main point, he suddenly heard Er Dan’s ghostly scream.
Moreover, this voice sounded like it came from a very distant place.
Ginsengfruit nearly bit through his back molars in frustration and his hands itched with the urge to pluck all of Er Dan’s fur!
"That little rascal must have run into some trouble!"
So, handling a mess is something one can gain experience from; just hearing Er Dan’s voice, Ginsengfruit knew Er Dan was in quite a bit of trouble right now.
He couldn’t care less about his shining moment now; he had to quickly find Er Dan and deal with the trouble it had stirred up.
If not, with Er Dan’s pea-sized brain, it could genuinely collapse this cave.
This was an important moment for his host after all.
"Host, I’ll go take a look first~"
What could Yun Ran do? She could only wave her hand in frustration, somewhat regretting helping Er Dan hatch in the first place.
Ginsengfruit quickly followed Er Dan’s voice over with great speed.
At this moment, the moonlight was just right, coupled with the inherent coldness of the cave, along with Er Dan’s somewhat creepy ghostly cries.
Honestly, if this scene were captured on a phone, it would genuinely resemble a horror atmosphere film.
Yet this sound couldn’t be ignored, with strong penetration, anyone with slightly less composure would find themselves unnerved by such ghostly cries.
Yun Ran could only helplessly block out her hearing, then continued to examine the increasingly clear pattern in her hand.
Ginsengfruit spent only a few seconds to find Er Dan, though he used all his strength to do so.
The surroundings were pitch black, yet this didn’t affect Ginsengfruit’s vision.
It’s unclear how Ginsengfruit managed to find a small corridor that only allowed two people to pass side by side in such a wide cave.
Just approaching it, one could smell a rotten stench, clearly indicating this corridor was a dead end.
Currently, on the top of the corridor, countless black dots were densely packed, just looking at them gave a feeling of physical discomfort.
Fortunately, neither Ginsengfruit nor Er Dan had the human-like stress response when facing terrifying anomalies.
Er Dan’s ghostly scream was purely because those black dots were too nauseating; when it broke in here, it even got dripped on by some unknown liquid from the corridor’s ceiling.
Detecting Ginsengfruit’s presence, Er Dan quickly scrambled over to his side.
It stretched out its wings, looking utterly disgusted as it screeched: "I’m not clean anymore, I’m not clean anymore!!!"
Ginsengfruit: ...
He had imagined the trouble Er Dan might encounter, but he hadn’t foreseen this particular issue.
Especially now, Ginsengfruit couldn’t clean his wings and just held them out in front of him, clearly expecting him to help clean them.
Ginsengfruit didn’t doubt for a second that if wings were dispensable, Er Dan wouldn’t hesitate for a moment to tear them off and toss them away.
The liquid on Er Dan’s wings was a ghastly green and carried a scent capable of corroding anything.
"Hurry up and clean me up!!!"
Ginsengfruit could clearly hear that Er Dan’s voice was on the brink of collapse.
He pressed his lips into a straight line, genuinely at a loss for words to describe his speechlessness at this moment.
"I never realized before that you have a cleanliness obsession."
It wasn’t exactly a cleanliness obsession, just a pure love of cleanliness combined with a dislike for the rotten smell and the unsettling color.
Er Dan thought Ginsengfruit was gloating, but it had no proof, and even the retort at the tip of its beak was swallowed temporarily.
Ginsengfruit said that, but his hands didn’t stop, first taking out a pair of shiny gloves and putting them on himself.
Then he took out a small glass bottle and glass rod, clearly intending to collect that ghastly green liquid.
In this scene, Er Dan could only forcefully suppress the discomfort in its heart, turn its head to the other side, and ’patiently’ wait for Ginsengfruit to help clean it.
As the seconds ticked by, the ghastly green liquid that dripped onto Er Dan wasn’t a lot and was quickly cleaned up.
Yet Er Dan still felt it wasn’t completely clean, wishing for a big pond to jump into and wash off.
The unease in its heart ultimately kept Er Dan’s beak from shutting: "Spray some alcohol on me to disinfect, I know you have some on you!"
This was fearing Ginsengfruit would refuse.
All of Ginsengfruit’s focus was now drawn to that ghastly green liquid, and he directly tossed a bottle of alcohol to Er Dan: "Do it yourself, I’m busy!"
Er Dan: ...
If it had hands, it wouldn’t need to be so bothered, would it?
But even though Er Dan was just a baby, it was a proud and tough little bird and wouldn’t beg repeatedly!
After opening the cap with its teeth, Er Dan’s claws grabbed the alcohol bottle and performed a high-difficulty pour.
With the added cooperation of its wings, it actually managed to clean off the area that had been stained with the ghastly green liquid with the alcohol.
Now, Er Dan felt instantly relieved, relaxing the entire bird against the nearby stone wall.
Giving a sideways glance at Ginsengfruit who was unwaveringly staring at the glass bottle, it snorted coldly once more.
The posture was clearly to show off to Ginsengfruit: See, even without your help, I can still manage!
Ginsengfruit directly ignored Er Dan’s self-satisfied display, his eyes quickly flashed with countless symbols.
Clearly analyzing the situation of this ghastly green liquid.
The specially made glass bottle didn’t change much, but this didn’t stop Ginsengfruit from seeing that the liquid’s activity was very high.
He quickly glanced at the one drop of liquid he had intentionally dripped onto the ground earlier; a small pit had already formed there.
This level of corrosiveness, according to data analysis, isn’t the strongest of corrosive liquids.
However, the gas released by this liquid clearly carried a hallucinogenic poison; if someone got hit, there’d be no saving them.
Luckily, he’s not human, and neither is Er Dan, which is why they can calmly watch this liquid here.
Ginsengfruit glanced at Er Dan leaning against the stone wall: "You managed to find this place so accurately; your luck is unmatched."
With that, he lifted his foot to leave, determined to seal this place off.
