Chapter 5 Dragon’s Treasure!

After making sure that he was temporarily out of danger, Sade immediately began to carefully observe his surroundings.

Suddenly, his eyes flew to a shadowed area near him.

He saw that the place in front of him, which was covered by a shadow, was actually emitting a sparkling light.

Sade focused his eyes and vaguely saw something gold.

"It's all golden yellow. Could it be a pile of gold? Maybe gold coins?"

Sade suddenly remembered that the dragons he had read about, had the habit of collecting shiny objects.

They liked to collect treasures and pile them up into a mountain of gold, and then they liked to sleep on it.

The giant dragon had gotten up from somewhere before. Did that mean that that it was sitting on its treasure to guard it?

Thinking of the treasure that the dragon had collected, Sade's fatigue from the changes in the environment instantly disappeared.

He immediately tried to climb up in the direction of the treasure. He wanted some of it!

Oh, that's right, he couldn't climb anywhere. He was currently a baby.

Despite using all the strength in his body to move, he could only crawl forward slowly.

Alas, he couldn't do anything about it. After all, he was just a baby.

However, after a lot of effort, he finally approached the area.

When he looked up, he saw that it was indeed a small mountain of treasure.

In it, he could see gold trinkets, gold coins, and all kinds of weapons, jewelry, and other gems.

He was a little confused when he saw the mountain of treasure, because there instead of having a lot of gold and gold coins, the pile was mostly full of weapons like swords, halberds and defensive items like shields and armor.

This was very different from what he had imagined.

After all, in Sade's eyes, dragons were experts in collecting gold and shiny items.

How could there be so little gold in front of him?

Slowly climbing up the mountain of treasure in front of him, he began to search inside.

​ He desperately needed to drink water.

In fact, that was the reason why he climbed up the mountain of treasure in the first place. Since there were many treasure chests inside, Sade thought that maybe he could find some precious tools or something of that ilk in the chests.

Maybe he could even find some magic tools that could be used to make fresh water. That would be great!

One by one, he dug out treasure chests of different sizes from the pile of gold coins.

Just this alone made him gasp for breath.

He had no choice. His current physical form was too weak.

But he had no choice. No matter how tired he was, he had to continue.

Without water, people would die, and not to mention how weak he was now in the form of a baby.

It was precisely because of this belief that he desperately wanted to live.

Sade, who was only a baby, miraculously dug out all the chests. All the treasure chests that could be seen were dug out.

Sade counted five treasure chests in total, four small ones and one large one.

Sade couldn't open the lid of the largest treasure chest despite it being unlocked. The lid was too heavy for him to lift. Therefore, he let it be and moved on to the four smaller chests. They looked more manageable.

If he employed some effort, he was sure he could open them.

Sade mentally prepared himself to open the first chest.

It was a square treasure chest with a pure purple outer appearance. Sade couldn't tell what material the treasure chest was made of, but the gorgeous appearance of the treasure chest surprised him.

It was inlaid with four gemstones of different colors, and it looked extremely beautiful.

Just by looking at its appearance, one could guess that whatever was inside the treasure chest would be very precious.

As Sade slowly opened it, a puzzled look appeared on his face.

In the box in front of him, there was a green pocket shield the size of a coin.

Sade picked up the green pocket shield in front of him and looked at it.

It had small green scales inlaid on the front and in the middle of the shield was a very strange rune that looked like a girl sitting on the side.

The whole thing looked as if it was one gorgeous piece of artwork. One look and one could tell that it was made with extreme intricacy.

Sade did not know what use this pocket shiel had for a while. However, when he picked it up, he found that there was a pure silver necklace attached to the back of it.

Obviously, this item as an accessory which had some special effect, although he did not know what it was.

However, Sade still hung this item around his neck and continued to check the treasure chest behind him.

The second treasure chest was a small box made of pure iron. It didn't look big.

Sade wondered if this treasure chest contained items like magical rings.

"Could it be that this contains a spatial ring?" Sade felt some anticipation stir in his heart.

If it really contained a spatial ring, then he would be lucky.

After all, with his current body, he did not have the ability to hide things. If he had something like a spatial ring, then he would be able to keep some treasures and even some weapons that he could use later on when he needed to.

He would definitely leave this place in the future to search for human civilization.

After all, he was a human himself, and he definitely needed to a place where humans lived so that someone could take care of him.

However, as he opened the treasure chest, what appeared in front of him was not a ring, but a necklace instead.

Actually, it seemed to be two necklaces which were joined together by the same pendant. It was a flat silver disk with a blood-red gemstone embedded in the middle.

"What is this?"
