"Is this caused by the plants themselves?"
Under the blue sky, the Scholar's journey continued. Now, he had arrived at a strange place.
Although the sky was blue, the ground was covered with orange flames.
In front of the scholar was a burning forest. Although he could not enter, he could still see 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 at a certain temperature. This oil could be ignited under the sunlight. It would use this special ability to burn other plants.
Of course, this action would also burn itself, but their seeds would survive and grow again in the fertilized land after being burned.
In fact, the Voidfolk's mother ball also had this kind of creature.
However, the Scholar had only heard of it. It seemed that it had gone extinct hundreds of years ago. He did not expect to see it 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 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. This was because its fruit was called a popcorn. Only the temperature of the fire 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 Scholar was amazed by the strange phenomenon of the plants interacting with each other in the flames. He took out a video device and recorded the things here.
In addition to recording and observing, the Scholar had another important thing to do.
The Scholar took a piece of meat hanging from his waist and started to burn near the fire.
This piece of meat was picked up by the Scholar before flying into the forest. To be precise, it was scraped off from a corpse. While flying, the Scholar 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 of the pterosaurs and used a small knife made of stone to scrape off some meat. He then brought it to the burning forest.
"I wonder what this meat tastes like."
The Scholar stuck the meat on a small branch. As the flames burned, the meat emitted a fragrant smell. The smell made the Scholar want to swallow it.
However, the Scholar knew that he had to cook it. After all, he did not know what kind of parasites or fungi the dinosaurs in this place had. Generally speaking, the meat of vegetarians was cleaner.
"Looks like it's almost done."
The Scholar stared at the changing color of the meat. When he felt that it was ready, he ate it.
"Bah, what is this smell?"
However, in the next moment, he spat it out. The Scholar felt a very disgusting taste spread in his mouth.
"Why does it smell like this? It smells so good." The Scholar smelled the remaining meat on the branch again. It did indeed smell very delicious.
But when it comes to my mouth
...
The Scholar sniffed and took another bite. This time, it didn't feel the disgusting taste from before. Instead, it was extremely delicious.
"Even without the seasoning, it's perfect," the Scholar said as she ate. She took more meat to burn, but she still found it strange. What was the disgusting smell she'd tasted earlier?
"Could it be …"
The Scholar tried to recall what she had just eaten. She suddenly noticed that the piece of meat she had just eaten was not disgusting at all. Instead, it felt disgusted.
It was the thought of disgust that made him feel disgusted.
Then.. Maybe something had done something to it that made it feel nauseous. Was it a brain-made monster?
The Scholar Scholar could only think of a brain-created monster with this ability. The Scholar Scholar looked around but found nothing.
Brain-created monsters were still very dangerous. Although the Scholar Scholar thought that the one he saved would not attack him, there must be more than one Brain-created monster.
Sensing danger, the Scholar Scholar quickly ate the roasted meat in his hand. Then, he climbed onto the flying machine and flew into the sky.
It was always safer in the sky because there were not many hunters in the sky.....
. Flying above the burning forest, the Scholar 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 he was not full, the Scholar Scholar wanted to eat something.
However, it was impossible for it to descend now. Therefore, the Scholar Walker had no choice but to fly past the fragrant woodland and arrive at another place.
"This is …" Behind the burning forest, the Scholar saw a wide river. The water seemed very calm. Many creatures had 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 see many small jellyfish floating in the air.
The scholar had read up on most of these creatures. As long as they followed the river, they might be able to reach the next scenic spot that the scholar wanted to visit.
Because they had replenished the aircraft's fuel, the Scholar believed that it should be enough to fly to that place.
With the breeze blowing on the river, the scholar enjoyed the journey while looking at the surrounding scenery.
However, it did not seem to be able to enjoy it for too long. That was because the Scholar saw a large black shadow appearing in the sky in front of them.
"These are Pterosaurs."
A large number of Pterosaurs flew in the sky. In order to avoid them, the Scholar Walker lowered the altitude of the aircraft to avoid crashing into the creatures.
"Quack! Quack!" The Pterosaurs' cries accompanied their figures as they flew over the Scholar Walker's head. Because they were afraid that the Pterosaurs would hit the propeller, the Scholar Walker lowered the aircraft even more. It was only a few meters away from the water surface.
"Why are there so many Pterosaurs?" The Scholar Walker looked up as they flew. These Pterosaurs were all of the same species, with wingspans of more than five meters. They were considered a relatively large species. The Scholar Walker was curious as to why they looked so flustered.
However, the Scholar Walker also had to pay attention to the water surface.
Boom!
Just as the Scholar Walker was thinking about this, the surface of the river in front of them suddenly exploded. A huge crocodile rushed out of the water and bit down on a Pterosaur that was flying lower, dragging it into the water.
The appearance of the Pterosaurs attracted other predators. The Scholar Walker also saw creatures in the water in the distance jump out to hunt the Pterosaurs. However, there were some creatures that did not target the Pterosaurs.
The Scholar Walker noticed that there was a dorsal fin behind the crocodile. It was swimming towards the Scholar Walker at an extremely fast speed.
"It's the one just now."
The Scholar Walker quickly increased the speed of the aircraft. As the aircraft flew forward, the dorsal fin increased its speed at the same time. It was obvious that the Scholar Walker was its target. It knew that the Scholar Walker had more meat than the Pterosaurs.
The Scholar Walker quickly turned and flew towards the shore. The dorsal fin in the water also turned and swam towards the Scholar Walker. Its speed was even faster than the Scholar Walker's aircraft.
"We're almost there." The Scholar Walker pressed down on the control stick, and the aircraft tilted forward. Just as it was about to reach the shore, the Scholar Walker heard the sound of waves bursting behind him. He turned around and saw that the shark's huge mouth was about to bite into the aircraft's tail.
Thump!
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 sky 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.
"Looks like this fish isn't afraid of being stranded."
The Scholar Walker breathed a sigh of relief and flew forward. After bidding farewell to the huge group of Pterosaurs and the dangerous river, the Scholar Walker 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 Walker flew past, the creatures all looked at him.
The Scholar Walker remembered that these creatures were called Leaping Birds. They were creatures that evolved from dinosaurs. They had long tails and were covered in feathers, especially the feathers on their forelimbs. These creatures could fly for a short period of time, but they usually searched for food on the ground.
According to the information the Scholar Walker had read, Leaping Birds were herbivores. However, they looked like they wanted to jump up and capture the Scholar Walker.
Although the one-meter long Leaping Birds did not seem to be a threat, the Scholar Walker did not seem to be a threat.
"Caw!" Suddenly, one of the Leaping Birds let out a cry. All of the Leaping Birds leaped from the ground and flapped their forelimbs as they flew into the air.
Click! The Scholar Walker quickly pulled the control stick 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, did not listen to him. The control stick was stuck there, and the Scholar Walker could not move it no matter how hard he tried.
However, the Leaping Birds ignored the Scholar Walker. They all flew past the Scholar Walker and flew to higher ground.
"Strange. Aren't they going to …"
Whoosh!
Just as the Scholar Walker was puzzled, a sharp sound entered his ears. He turned around and saw that there was an arrow stuck in 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 bright light, like a crystal that was not finished yet.
