“......”
"Disperse! Disperse!"
Zhang Haike shouted, telling everyone to stand apart.
Just now.
The Candle Dragon threw one of his companions away, and it was unknown whether he was still alive or not.
If they were allowed to continue, they would definitely be wiped out!
However, their bodies were corroded by countless leeches. Not to mention running, even walking was extremely difficult.
"Ssss-"
The Candle Dragon twisted his black body and turned around.
It seemed to be enjoying the fear in everyone's eyes.
“......”
But in the next moment.
It paused.
Because in front of its line of sight, there was a guy staring at it without moving.
Ssss--
The Candle Dragon let out a sinister sound.
It bent its body and slowly crawled toward Zhang Qilin.
Zhang Qilin stood where he was, staring at it coldly.
"Qilin, leave quickly!"
"You are not its match!"
Zhang Haike shouted anxiously.
Zhang Qilin was really too young. Furthermore, he was alone. It was impossible for him to defeat the Candle Dragon!
If the leeches hadn't drilled into their bodies, they would have been able to kill the Candle Dragon together.
Zhang Qilin ignored everyone's shouts.
At the same time.
The Candle Dragon was also very interested in this stubborn kid.
Ssss--
It stared at Zhang Qilin with its vertical snake eyes and let out a sinister sound. Its body gradually accelerated as it crawled over.
......
"Ah, my little Qilin!"
"This snake is too big!"
"Oh my god, Little Qilin, run!”
"Don't get bitten!"
"Sob, sob, sob, I'm crying!"
In the audience stands, countless people were scared.
Because this snake looked too strange!
It had sharp fangs and a huge body. It was a combination of a python and a poisonous snake!
There was power and poison!
Therefore, everyone began to worry about Zhang Qilin's safety!
"Teacher Zhao Gao, do you know this snake?”Academician Li asked the biologist Zhao Gao curiously.
Zhao Gao was a famous biologist in the Dragon Country.
However, in Zhang Qilin's memories, there had never been a particularly strange creature.
Therefore, Zhao Gao did not say anything.
But now, the opportunity had come!
Zhao Gao didn't show any excitement when he heard Dean Li's question. He stared at the Candle Dragon in his memory, and his facial features were almost scrunched up.
"Teacher Zhao?"
"Teacher Zhao, what's wrong?"
"Hello, Teacher Zhao?"
Everyone kept reminding him.
"Yes!"
Zhao Gao came back to his senses and immediately raised his hand."First of all, this kind of creature has never appeared on the blue planet. At least, I have never seen such a thing in my decades of biological research!”
“.......”
Zhao Gao's answer.
The other experts seemed to have been prepared.
Everyone probably knew that this snake was an extremely rare species, and it was the kind that no one had discovered.
Otherwise, there would be some records.
Academician Li asked curiously," Teacher Zhao, I heard from the kids that this snake is called the Candle Dragon. What's going on?"”
"This…"
Zhao Gao's expression was a little complicated. He said,""I know the Candle Dragon, but it shouldn't be this thing, right?”
"Oh? So you mean there really is a Candle Dragon in this world? What does he look like?"
"No, no, no!"
"I've never seen the Candle Dragon before!" Zhao Gao waved his hand hurriedly.”
"What I mean is that the Candle Dragon is indeed recorded in the history books, but I feel that it's not very similar to the black snake in Zhang Qilin's memory."
"Hurry up and say it!" The experts were a little impatient.”
“......”
"Cough cough!"
Zhao Gao sorted out his words and slowly said,""The Candle Dragon isn't actually a snake. In the historical records, the Candle Dragon is a dragon.”
"The ancients called it Torch Dragon."
"It's a kind of giant venomous snake from ancient times. In Emperor Shun's era, this kind of thing was used to refine oil and light candles, but Candle Dragons went extinct thousands of years ago!”
Zhao Gao spread his hands.
It meant that the Candle Dragon that was as mighty as a dragon in the legends should not be similar to the Black Snake in his memory, right?
"Are there any other records?" Academician Li asked.”
"Yes."
Zhao Gao recalled and explained,""Rumor has it that Candle Dragons are a type of snake that lives in extremely deep underground veins.”
"It is said that its body is rich in flammable oil.”
"In order to capture it, the ancients would use their blood to draw it out from the extremely deep earth veins, then shoot it to make candles.”
"It sounds very unfair, but at that time, a long-lasting light source was extremely precious, especially for people who lived in dark caves at night.”
“......”
Everyone looked at each other.
The snake that the ancients used to make candles?
No wonder there was the word 'Zhu' in his name.
After listening to Zhao Gao's explanation, everyone could not help but think of the medieval period in Europe. For the sake of lighting, people did not hesitate to kill whales in large numbers. They killed so many whales that they were almost extinct.
"But the black snake in Zhang Qilin's memory does resemble the Candle Dragon in some ways."
Zhao Gao muttered,"
"Since it appeared in Zhang Qilin's memory, it means that this kind of creature does exist in this world."
Whoosh!
Zhao Gao was halfway through his sentence.
Zhang Qilin's memory changed!
