"Is this caused by the plants themselves …?"
Under the blue sky, the Scholar's journey continued. Now, he had arrived at a wonderful place.
Although the sky was blue, the ground was covered with orange flames.
In front of the Scholar was a forest that was burning fiercely. Although he could not enter, he could still look at the scene from outside the forest …
It was said that this was caused by a plant called the 'Flame Flower'.
This plant would produce a kind of oil under a certain temperature. This oil could burn under the illumination of the sun. It would use this special ability to burn other plants.
Of course, this action would also burn itself, but its seeds would survive and grow again on the fertilized ground after being burned.
In fact, the Voidfolk's mother ball also had this kind of creature …
However, the Scholar had only heard of it, and it seemed to have gone extinct hundreds of years ago. He did not expect to see this kind of creature here.
In order to deal with this kind of self-igniting plant, some of the surrounding plants had evolved. The Scholar found that some trees were still standing in the flames. Their special bark could protect them from the damage of the fire.
At the same time, the Scholar also saw another kind of plant. This plant even used the burning characteristics of the 'Flame Flower'.
The Scholar found a burning tree that was constantly crackling. That was because its fruit was called 'popcorn'. Only the temperature of the flames could make its shell burst open. This allowed the seeds inside to fly out. This way, the seedlings could also enjoy the earth that had been burned and filled with fertilizer.
The strange phenomenon of the plants here interacting with each other in the flames was incredible to the Scholar. He took out a video device and recorded the things here.
In addition to recording and observing, the Scholar had to do another important thing, and that was …
The Scholar took a piece of meat hanging from his waist and started to burn near the burning fire.
This piece of meat was picked up by the Scholar before flying to this forest. To be precise, it was scraped off from a corpse. While the Scholar was flying, he saw a huge dome-shaped dragon corpse. The corpse was almost completely eaten. However, there was still a lot of meat on the skeleton. A large number of pterosaurs were eating the leftover meat.
The Scholar chased away some pterosaurs and used a small knife made of stone to scrape off some meat. Then, he brought it to the burning forest.
"I wonder how this meat tastes …"
The scholar stuck the meat on a twig. As the flames burned, the meat emitted a delicious aroma. The aroma made the Scholar want to swallow it whole.
However, the scholars knew that they had to be cooked. After all, they did not know what kind of parasites or fungi the dinosaurs in this place had. Generally speaking, the meat of vegetarian creatures was' cleaner '.
"Looks like it's about time."
Staring at the changing color of the meat, the scholar swallowed the meat when he felt that it was edible …
"Bah! What is this smell?! "
But in the next moment, it spat it out. The Scholar felt a disgusting taste spreading in its mouth …
"Why does it smell like this? It smells delicious … "The Scholar sniffed the remaining meat on the branch again. The meat did indeed smell delicious.
But as soon as it entered his mouth …
"Delicious!"
The Scholar sniffed and took another bite. This time, it did not feel the disgusting taste from before. Instead, it was extremely delicious.
"It's perfect even without the seasoning!" As the Scholar ate, she took more meat and burned it. However, she still felt strange. What was that disgusting smell?
"Could it be …"
The Scholar thought about it carefully. She suddenly noticed that the piece of meat she ate was not disgusting. She felt disgusted.
It was the thought of disgust that made her feel disgusted.
Then what do you say? Perhaps something had affected it, causing it to feel nauseous? Could it be … a brain-creating monster?
The Scholar could only think of a brain-creating monster with such an ability. The Scholar immediately looked around, but found nothing.
Brain-creating monsters were still very dangerous. Although the Scholar thought that the one she 'saved' might not attack her, there was definitely more than one brain-creating monster.
Sensing danger, the Scholar quickly ate the roasted meat in her hand. Then, she climbed onto the aircraft and operated it to fly into the sky.
It was always safer in the sky because there were not many hunters in the sky … But, it smelled so good …
Flying over the burning forest, the Scholar could smell all kinds of smells coming from the forest. Most of them were the smell of burning, but there were also some that smelled just right.
Because she was not full just now, the Scholar still wanted to eat something.
However, she could not go down now. Therefore, the Scholar had to fly over the fragrant forest and arrived at another place.
"This is …" After the burning forest, the Scholar saw a wide river. The water looked very calm. Many creatures fled to the river bank because of the burning forest. There was a huge shark in the river, waiting for a creature to approach the river. High up in the sky, the Scholar could clearly see the huge figure of the shark in the water.
The river led to the sea, and there were many creatures in the sea that could enter fresh water. On the surface of the water, the Scholar could also see many small floating jellyfish moving in the air.
Most of these creatures, the Scholar had read about them. As long as she flew up the river, she might be able to reach the next 'scenic spot' that the Scholar wanted to visit.
Because she had refueled the aircraft before, the Scholar now thought that it should be enough to fly to that place.
Enjoying the cool breeze on the river, the Scholar looked at the surrounding scenery and enjoyed the journey …
However, it seemed that she could not enjoy it for too long because the Scholar saw a large number of … black shadows in the sky in front of her.
"These are … pterosaurs?"
A large number of pterosaurs flew in the sky. In order to avoid them, the Scholar lowered the altitude of the aircraft to avoid crashing into the creatures.
"Squawk! Squawk!" The pterosaurs' cries accompanied their figures as they flew over the Scholar's head. Fearing that the pterosaurs would hit the propeller, the Scholar adjusted the aircraft even lower. It was only a few meters above the water.
"Why are there so many pterosaurs?" The Scholar looked up as she flew. These pterosaurs were all of the same species, with wingspans of more than five meters. They were a relatively large species of pterosaurs, and the Scholar wondered why they looked so flustered.
However, the Scholar also had to pay attention to the water surface …
Boom!!
Just as the Scholar was thinking about this, the surface of the river in front of her suddenly exploded. A huge crocodile rushed out of the water and bit down on one of the pterosaurs, dragging it into the water.
The appearance of the pterosaurs attracted other predators. In the distance, the Scholar saw some creatures jump out of the water to hunt the pterosaurs. However, there were some creatures that did not target the pterosaurs.
The Scholar noticed that behind the crocodile, a dorsal fin was swimming towards it at high speed.
"It's the one just now …"
The Scholar hurriedly increased the speed of the aircraft. As the aircraft flew forward, the dorsal fin accelerated as well. It was obvious that the Scholar was its target. It knew that the Scholar had more meat than the pterosaurs.
The Scholar quickly turned and flew towards the shore. The dorsal fin in the water turned and swam towards the Scholar. Its speed was even faster than the Scholar's aircraft.
"We're almost there!" The Scholar pressed the control lever, and the aircraft tilted forward. Just as it was about to reach the shore, the Scholar heard the sound of waves bursting behind her. She turned her head and saw that the shark's huge mouth was about to bite the tail of the aircraft …
Boom!
The shark's teeth clenched together. When it was only half a meter away from the aircraft, it lost the strength to jump out of the water. The shark fell from the air onto the beach.
The Scholar Walker was finally safe. It looked back and saw that the shark had retreated back into the water with its thick forelimbs.
"It seems that this fish is not afraid of being stranded …"
The Scholar breathed a sigh of relief and flew forward. After bidding farewell to the huge group of pterosaurs and the dangerous river, the Scholar once again flew over a vast plain.
On the plain, a large number of feathered creatures could be seen searching for food on the ground. When the Scholar flew past, the creatures all looked at her.
The Scholar remembered that these creatures were called "leaping birds." They were a type of creature that had evolved from dinosaurs. They had long tails and were covered in feathers, especially on their forelimbs. These creatures could fly for short periods of time, but they usually searched for food on the ground.
According to the information the Scholar had read, leaping birds were herbivores. However, they looked like they wanted to jump up and capture the Scholar …
Although the meter-long leaping birds did not seem to be a threat,
"Caw!" Suddenly, one of the leaping birds let out a cry. All the other leaping birds suddenly jumped up from the ground, flapping their forelimbs as they flew into the air.
"Click!" The Scholar hurriedly pulled the control lever in an attempt to avoid them. However, it seemed that due to the excessive use of extreme maneuvers, the aircraft, which was originally made of bones and wood, was beginning to lose control. The lever was stuck in place, and the Scholar could not pull it out no matter how hard she tried.
However, the leaping birds did not pay any attention to the Scholar. They all flew past the Scholar, flying to higher ground.
"Strange. Aren't they going to …"
"Whoosh!"
Just as the Scholar was wondering what was going on, a sharp sound entered her ears. She turned around and saw an arrow sticking out of the aircraft's fuel tank.
The Scholar looked down and saw a creature aiming a bow at him. The creature's entire body was glowing with a dazzling light, as if it was made of crystal.
