"Ga! We can't give up! We're not dead yet … we … ga … "
In the white land of ice and snow, a green figure was constantly moving forward. Its weak voice echoed in the vast ice field …
But when it turned around, there was only the whistling of the wind behind it.
"Ga …"
This green figure finally fell on the ice field. Although its life was filled with the warmth of the sun, but … it finally chose to fall on the ice field of despair …
After dozens of days and nights, the Emerald Dragon's' Ice and Snow Expedition 'had ended.
After leaving the canyon, the thousand Emerald Dragons were filled with passion and hope of finding a warmer place. They prepared a large amount of equipment, warm leather, dry food, and other daily necessities. There were also some large ostriches that were used to carry objects.
Because some of the big ostriches also survived, and not long after settling down in the canyon, some Emerald Dragons successfully caught the young of the big ostriches and raised them. They used this kind of dinosaur just like the white skeleton dragon …
It seemed to be a journey full of material and hope. They thought they were far away from the noisy city, but after that, they realized that it was not hope but despair …
Before setting off, the Emerald Dragons who swore to find a new home cried and shouted to go back not long after they left. They began to miss the crowded and hot canyon where thieves were everywhere.
But when they realized that their tears were frozen, they already understood that this was a path of no return …
In the end, they either froze to death or starved to death. Only the strongest Emerald Dragon was left. Finally, it fell more than 200 kilometers away from the canyon.
It died until it died. They did not see any hope.
But its death. Brought hope to some other creatures.
In the snowy ground, some of the snow suddenly caved in. The caved in snow revealed a cave, and many furry creatures crawled out of the cave.
This group of Mao Yu gathered beside the corpse of the Emerald Dragon and began to eat quickly. They did not fight for it, but cooperated and ate crazily. Every Mao Yu knew. Unnecessary fighting was just a waste of time. Not long after, only a skeleton was left of the Emerald Dragon.
After eating, the Mao Yu quickly hid in the nest, leaving the skeleton and the frozen blood clots behind. The eye sockets on the skull were still looking at the gray sky …
Was this the latest record?
A ball of fur flew down from the sky. Its fur moved quickly like tentacles and buried the skeleton in the snow.
After each Emerald Dragon fell, Lin would ask Pompom to bury its bones.
In the future, there should be a lot of bones here. These bones recorded the Emerald Dragon's hard work. The furthest Emerald Dragon could walk was 200 kilometers. How far would the next time be?
The reason why the Emerald Dragons couldn't travel far wasn't because they didn't have enough food. If the resources they carried were included, they could travel even further. The main reason was that they didn't know where to go. It was very easy for them to get lost in the ice field, so they couldn't go far.
This caused their corpses to be scattered around the canyon, but these corpses benefited Mao Yu who lived outside.
Now, there wasn't only one type of Mao Yu living in the wilderness of the Northern Continent. Lin had successfully allowed many types of Mao Yu to live outside. They were all specially selected species with high digging ability and intelligence.
They usually lived by digging the roots of plants frozen underground. These Mao Yu had dug deeper than before and built a huge and complicated tunnel system. However, it was always difficult to find food. Recently, the Emerald Dragons had given them a good meal.
Lin was currently paying attention to the progress of the two worlds. Compared to the moon, the creatures on the 'Pompom' had more changes. This was because the creatures on the moon were very familiar with this winter, but the creatures on the Pompom had to overcome it.
They were now slowly moving towards success. Many of the Mao Yu on the dinosaur continent had survived and continued to develop in the ice and snow.
Because almost all the sword fleas in the roots left behind by the creator had died, the roots had become edible, which was a rare good thing for Mao Yu.
Lin noticed that some of the Mao Yu had begun to develop bigger changes. In order to compete with other Mao Yu, they had become stronger and bigger than before, so they could compete for more food.
Lin felt that they would obviously evolve into larger creatures in the future, like dinosaurs. When it was warm, the Mao Yu's descendants would spread across the entire continent! At the same time, the dinosaur continent would be renamed as the Mao Yu continent.
However, they still had to face their opponents – the gnomes who also lived underground.
Meanwhile, in the Northern Continent, the Mao Yu were still waiting for the arrival of delicious food.
The Emerald Dragons' journey wasn't over yet. After the first expedition was destroyed, the Emerald Dragons inside didn't know what had happened outside. Compared to thinking that they had failed, more Emerald Dragons were more willing to believe that they had succeeded.
Therefore, more Emerald Dragons planned to form groups to explore the icy plains and find a new place to live. Compared to this stuffy and noisy place, exploring the outside world was indeed the yearning of many young dragons …
Of course, Lin knew that they would soon regret it.
However, their actions received the full support of their king. This generation's Emerald Dragon King personally gathered expedition teams and gathered dragons who wanted to explore everywhere.
However, this king never believed that they would be able to find a new home. Therefore, although he gathered them, he would never go himself.
This king only saw that this was the best way to reduce the crowding in the dragon's mouth.
Now, there were notices everywhere in the Emerald Dragon City calling for explorers. Many dragons were also actively participating, but unlike before, the king had asked them to bring their own food and equipment instead of providing them with them. However, the Emerald Dragons didn't find any problems with this, and all of them actively participated in the expedition.
New expedition teams were formed one after another. Thousands of Emerald Dragons were risking their lives. Some of them were looking for a new home, while others were just trying to leave this stuffy city full of disputes.
Although many Emerald Dragons regretted it after leaving, because the ones inside didn't know at all, they continued to advance dauntlessly.
The Emerald Dragons had been constantly updating the furthest distance they could explore in the wilderness. From the first two kilometers to the later two hundred kilometers, another Emerald Dragon broke this record. However, later on, Lin used a new recording method to record how long these Emerald Dragons could live outside. Some froze to death as soon as they went out, while others could live for dozens of days and nights.
Thus, a new era began.
This could be called the 'Ice Age of Exploration'. For more than ten years, Lin saw countless expedition teams setting off. The area around the canyon was scattered with their bones. Later on, Lin didn't even bury them, so these corpses scared off some new expedition teams.
However, the Emerald Dragons' expeditions never stopped. When there were few expeditions, there were only a few dragons. When there were more expeditions, there were hundreds or even thousands of them. However, every member of these expeditions either fled back to their home or looked at the icy plains in despair, waiting for death to come.
And for the Mao Yu, this was a wonderful era. Countless expeditions were like countless delicacies. At first, the Mao Yu only smelled the scent and ran out to observe, but later on, the Mao Yu even developed a habit. Some Mao Yu would run near the canyon to wait for the Emerald Dragons to come out, and then follow these Emerald Dragons until they died.
Some Mao Yu even took the initiative. Not only did they follow the Emerald Dragons, they also tried to scare them, or steal their food while they were resting. They chewed on their equipment, and so on, so that the Emerald Dragons would die faster.
The Emerald Dragons would also try to catch Mao Yu to eat, forming a strange competitive relationship. However, in this world of ice and snow, the Mao Yu, who were covered in hair and were not afraid of the cold, had a greater advantage.
In the end, the Emerald Dragons in the canyon benefited from all this.
After the rise of exploration, the Emerald Dragons' population plummeted, and the crowded city became much more relaxed. Resources became more abundant, and there were fewer thieves. Every dragon had a better life than before.
At this time, the King began to say that all this was due to his wisdom, so the Emerald Dragons began to cheer for the King. However, some Emerald Dragons also realized this problem, and the number of expeditions decreased …
Compared to the Skeleton Dragons, who had always been peaceful, the Emerald Dragons had a lot of things to do …
However, even if they were Skeletal Dragons, some of them wanted to go out and explore. However, they did not simply run out. Instead, they made more preparations. Even if they went out, they would not go too far. If they encountered any problems, they would immediately return.
In addition, their bodies were strong, and it was not easy for them to get frostbite in the cold. Because of this, the Skeleton Dragons had almost no losses in exploration.
However, just like the Emerald Dragons, the Skeleton Dragons could not find a new home. Most of them went out because they were curious, and not because they wanted to find something …
The Ancient Squids seemed to be in the same situation, so Lin created a passage that led directly to the sea for them. However, after freezing a group of Ancient Squids to death, they no longer wanted to go out.
Time passed slowly as Lin Luoran observed the changes in these creatures …
And after a few decades, nothing had changed. Although the ball of fur had sunlight, it was still covered by the cold, and the moon maintained a dark and cold environment.
In addition to observing the creatures on the ball of fur, Lin had also been observing the moon. However, she was not only observing the creatures on the moon, but also other things around the moon. Recently, Lin realized that the moon seemed to be approaching a certain … sun? Floating astronomy.
