Dulan hid under a huge rock and quietly looked ahead.
Three flame lizards of different sizes are entangled with each other, as if fighting. The appearance of the flame lizard is very similar to that of ordinary lizards, but it is much larger, even catching up with juvenile crocodiles. Their skin can change color freely.
From earthy yellow to red, it blends in perfectly with the environment, and its camouflage ability is very powerful.
"Huh? It's a bit strange..." Dulan was a little surprised. Logically speaking, although the flame lizard is a very aggressive creature and has a very strong territorial awareness, it is only for creatures of the same kind. For the same kind,
This kind of ferocious creatures are generally very tolerant. They are gregarious creatures, and their individual strength is much inferior to many ferocious beasts on Feinan Continent. Only by staying together in groups can they survive tenaciously.
It is for this reason that internal fighting rarely occurs within the flame lizards, but what happened on the mountain road ahead overturned the information in Dulan's mind - two larger flame lizards were constantly forcing the small lizard.
, seemed to want to drive that little thing out of his territory, and looked very fierce.
One of the flame lizards had a looming flame in its mouth, as if it might spray out the flames stored in its belly at any time.
The forced little lizard let out a series of low and rapid howls. Dulan suddenly noticed that the appearance of this little lizard seemed to be somewhat different from that of ordinary flame lizards. The general flame lizards have limbs and belly touching the ground, and a long and narrow mouth.
The sharp teeth are very similar to those of a crocodile. However, although the limbs of this small lizard are also attached to the ground, its belly is a certain distance from the surface. Its mouth is flat. What is even more strange is that there are growths on its back.
A pair of disproportionately small wings flapped constantly, obviously unable to move the wind and air to support its relatively huge body.
Its eyes are large, crystal clear, with a kind of bright red light, and its skin is fiery red, which has no sense of harmony with the earthy yellow of the surrounding environment.
If it were a flame lizard, it would definitely change its skin color according to the color of the environment, but this little thing didn't.
"Isn't this guy a flame lizard? With wings? Is it a dragon?" Dulan was startled by his speculation, but he immediately rejected the idea. On the Feinan continent, dragons are a very rare creature.
There are only twelve of them, and they are all extremely vicious people. Even if it is a small dragon, its mouth is not as flat as a little duck.
Dulan couldn't understand it more and more.
The two flame lizards became impatient. They pounced on the little thing ferociously and clawed at it wildly with their claws. After a while, there were many terrible scars on its body. It cried out in grievance.
, crystal tears actually flowed from his big eyes, like a child who had been bullied.
However, the two big lizards were merciless and pushed it out of their territory. The flaming lizard even spit out a small stream of flames and drove the little thing to the other side of the mountain road like a demonstration.
of open areas.
The poor little thing smashed its flat mouth, suddenly its forelimbs lifted off the ground, and stood up on its hind feet alone.
It turned around with some nostalgia and roared at the two flame lizards for a while, and the latter became even more irritable and restless. They rubbed the claws on their forelimbs, as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
The little thing lowered his head and walked slowly down the mountain with scars all over his body. Not long after, he passed the rock where Duran was hiding.
"What on earth is this guy? Why did the two flame lizards drive it away but didn't kill it..."
Dulan became more and more curious. What was the origin of this little thing that looked like a dragon and a flaming lizard?
So when he passed by Dulan, Dulan suddenly shouted in a low voice: "Hey!"
The little thing's feet suddenly stopped, a pair of big eyes blinked, and a very human look of doubt appeared on his little face. He stood there stupidly, staring at Duran for a long time. After half a minute, he tilted his head.
My head actually continued to walk down the mountain.
Dulan was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered that he was in stealth mode, and this stupid guy might not be able to see him.
So he quietly looked back and found that the two flame lizards had crawled into a dark nest on the side of the mountain road. He released the stealth state and said again: "Hey! Do you see me now?"
The little thing heard the sound again and turned around in surprise. He looked at Dulan, his amber eyes full of curiosity and doubt.
Dulan saw that this guy looked completely harmless, and for some reason he felt a little fond of him. He thought for a while and asked:
"May I have your name?"
The little thing shook his head and opened his flat mouth slightly: "A~Bu..."
"Abu? Can you understand me?"
"A~bu..."
"..."
After the two of them chatted for a long time, Dulan was speechless and found that this guy could only say the word "Ab".
So he nodded and said, "Abu, you are injured. Can I bandage it for you?"
Abu came closer and looked at Duran up and down. Suddenly he turned over and lay on the ground obediently, looking like he was ready to take whatever he wanted.
Du Lan almost laughed out loud. Isn't this little guy too wary? He didn't even have any precautions when meeting a random person.
Duran took out the roll of combat bandages from his satchel. When he was in the Evil Land, he was not seriously injured, so this roll of bandages was saved. The combat bandage can be used three times, so Duran cut it with a dagger.
, roughly bandaging a section of Abu's right forelimb and back respectively.
To be honest, Duran's bandaging skills are indeed relatively amateurish. During the bandaging, I could hear Abu's painful moans of protest many times, but the little guy still didn't make any fierce resistance and just blinked his amber eyes.
His eyes looked at Duran with a pitiful look.
Du Lan sighed in his heart after seeing it. If this guy were dropped on the earth, he wouldn't be able to make thousands of girls cute. Just put it on the stage and you don't have to do anything. Those cute things are a must-have.
The eyes are enough for countless loving women to compete for...
"It's a pity that this is not the earth, this is the cruel Feinan continent." Dulan put away the bandage and said to himself: "It's useless to be cute, don't look at me like that, wait... you want this
?Hey, this is my satchel, you..."
Before Duran finished reprimanding him, Abu, who had bandaged his wounds, threw himself on Duran's body very affectionately, secretly stuffed his big head into Duran's bag, and it took him a long time to clumsily pull it out, his long and slender mouth drooling.
Rubbing the blood melon wrapped in Dulan's shirt.
Seeing the way this guy was shaking his head, Dulan immediately understood what this guy was planning.
Duran held a bloody melon in each hand and asked, "Abu, are you hungry?"
Abu stared at Duran stupidly and suddenly nodded violently.
"You can really understand me..." Dulan marveled. The human lingua franca on the Feinan continent is a language that is almost English. Those who can use or understand the human lingua franca are advanced intelligent beings.
It's a miracle that this little guy of unknown origin can actually understand his own words.
He hesitated for a moment, but finally felt softened by the little guy's pitiful gaze, and handed over the blood melon with his left hand.
Who knew that this guy's clumsiness was beyond Dulan's imagination. His long and flat mouth could not peel the blood melon open at all. He could only use his deformed and short forelimbs to pick at the skin of the blood melon, looking anxious.
The greedy look makes people laugh.
Dulan slapped his forehead, grabbed the bloody melon, peeled it open easily, then cut it into many pieces with a dagger, and fed them to the opponent piece by piece.
Abu's long, flat mouth slurped up the tender and juicy flesh of the blood melon, and his big eyes narrowed into a straight line.
Dulan said angrily: "Idiot."
"A...Bu..."
The little guy lowered his head in grievance, seemingly no longer interested in the delicious blood melon.
Dulan looked at the little guy's expression, and an unbearable emotion suddenly arose in his heart. Countless information about the creatures on the Feinan Continent flashed through his mind, but he just couldn't tell what kind of creature this little cute thing in front of him was——
This is not a normal thing. Dulan thinks to himself that he has memorized 99% of the creatures on Feinan Continent, their characteristics and origins. Although there are occasional exceptions, it is not like he has no impression at all.
"The flat mouth, similar to the shape of a fire dragon, appears near the flame lizard tribe... Could this guy be the fire-eating beast that was on the verge of extinction in the first era?"
Suddenly, a somewhat unfamiliar term emerged from the deepest part of Dulan's memory.
The fire-eating beast is a very strange creature that appeared on the Feinan continent as early as the beginning of chaos. However, by the end of the first era, this creature almost disappeared from the continent. The fire-eating beast looks like a fire dragon.
This gives them the ability to intimidate other creatures. However, what is somewhat ironic is that generally speaking, fire-eating beasts do not use their appearance to intimidate surrounding creatures. They are born to love excitement and like to interact with other creatures.
Get together.
Fire-eating beasts have a very high IQ and can understand human common language, Elvish language and ancient divine language. They usually feed on ores containing the power of fire, and occasionally eat some fruits to try, but they will never eat meat. These
The gentle creatures do not have the slightest ability to attack. Their skin is soft and warm, making them very suitable as pets. This characteristic has also led to the demise of wild fire-eating beasts. Under the natural law of natural selection, food that has lost the blessing of the gods has
The fire beasts were quickly annihilated by large predators, and by the middle of the Second Age, the scholars who wrote the Perpetual Calendar from the Pearl Tower officially declared the extinction of this creature.
Looking at Abu's clumsy appearance and amazing spirituality, Duran felt more and more that this guy was the legendary long-extinct fire-eating beast.
But what surprised Duran was how could a pure-blooded fire-eating beast appear in the flame lizard's lair?
(I sincerely ask for recommendations and collections, thank you)
