Black Dragon Code
Chapter 8
After some twists and turns, Caesar still chose to leave with two young dragons. It was not driven by any emotion, but after making a simple balance of advantages and disadvantages, he wanted to get two helpers for himself.
There is a long way to go. The newborn dragons are in a dangerous situation. The jungle is full of killing machines. Although the formation of small groups makes their goals bigger, the combat effectiveness of the three small dragons has been greatly improved, just like wolves.
In this place, strength is the only guarantee of survival.
Moreover, Garon and blackcia are not cumbersome. They are real dragons. Coupled with Caesar after genetic transformation, even when all three black dragons are young, ordinary creatures are by no means their opponents.
However, if we are really unhappy, Caesar is unwilling to compromise. After settling down, he will find a chance to leave. There is no need to find himself unhappy for a moment.
I believe the other two young dragons think so.
……
Caesar always wondered: why was the swamp nest of the black dragon suddenly occupied by the green dragon?
It makes sense that the black dragon''s mother has long passed the age of irresponsible and random spawning. During pregnancy, it will build a nest and lay eggs only after it is confirmed that there are no creatures nearby that can pose a threat to itself.
Where does the green dragon come from? Why didn''t the black dragon know it existed?
After escaping from the swamp nest for several miles, Caesar finally understood that the desire for treasure was only a temporary intention. The real reason for the green dragon''s long journey was the damn climate.
Now it is the dry season, the temperature is rising, the hot sun in the foreign world is particularly hot, the river is rapidly drying up, the water source is missing, leaving a large area of cracked mud land.
Temperate rain forests gradually turn into hills and grasslands with withered and yellow trees.
In order to find a livable environment, the green dragon had to migrate, so the black dragon''s damp and dark swamp nest became its target.
"Hiss..."
The two young dragons roared uneasily. They had a natural aversion to drought. The temperature here was as high as more than 40 degrees. Although it could not pose a specific threat to the dragons, it also made the dragons uncomfortable.
But I have to bear it. They can''t go back. The wet place has been occupied by the green dragon. The evil dragon with strong territorial consciousness can''t tolerate the existence of alien young dragons.
The young dragons encountered their first problem after leaving the black dragon''s mother.
"Altorenzo, what''s next?" Garon asked, fiddling with the toy he had just got, a black backed beetle.
Hearing this, blackhia also subconsciously looked at Caesar. Although the "big brother" stole the eggshell and ran away alone, she had a bad impression on him, it can be seen that Caesar''s thoughts and behaviors are much more mature than the two young dragons.
Among the three young dragons, Caesar, who has not yet awakened his talent, has their mother''s temperament. Seriously, he has a quiet power, which makes them subconsciously have certain expectations for him.
"Call me Caesar," said Caesar.
In fact, in the naming habits of dragons, "Caesar", "gallon" and "Irene" are more like symbols, and "altorenzo", "nefadius" and "blacia" are their names.
However, he was obviously biased against a long list of names and preferred others or dragons to call themselves Caesar rather than other real names.
"Well, Caesar, what shall we do next?" blakia changed her tongue, unwilling to waste time on the title, waiting for him to make a decision.
"First of all, the outside world is very dangerous. It is not like the previous fishing game. Since we decide to stick together, we must be responsible for each other''s behavior and allow no mistakes or flukes."
Caesar was serious. He was just a young dragon. It was really difficult to make a serious face. His head was very big. When he got serious, he felt that the whole face was beeping, but it was a little cute.
But Garon and blackhia nodded. They knew better than Caesar how difficult it was for young dragons without parental protection to survive in the wild. The peak of the premature death rate of dragons appeared in the stages of young dragons and young dragons. The former was weak and the latter was reckless.
This is also the reason why they choose to follow Caesar. In fact, most young dragons will make such a choice at this stage. Although living in groups can not improve their combat effectiveness by leaps and bounds, they at least have a little more guarantee for each other.
"Very good."
Caesar answered, pulled the soil with his claws, frowned on the skin on the eyebrow bone (the Dragon had no eyebrows), and wrote the word "water" in the Dragon language on the sand.
Dragons are indeed magical creatures, but even if they are strong, they can''t get rid of the most basic physiological needs: water and food.
Caesar doesn''t feel it after genetic transformation, but the other two young dragons obviously feel thirsty, even the strong real dragon. I''m afraid other creatures are more thirsty. In this case, they can''t help collecting to the water source.
In the dry season, in the barren hills, finding water means finding food.
"Understand."
Garon nodded. Their first consideration is to build nests and live, which can''t bypass the problem of boiling water.
When they reached an agreement, Garon immediately ejected a mouthful of acid, corroded the black backed beetle and threw it into his mouth, flying into the sky to search for traces of rivers and lakes.
Blakiah also vibrated her wings and followed Garon to join the search, but Caesar grabbed her.
"There are not many blind spots in this place. Searching together won''t play much role. I''ll change you when it comes down."
As Caesar expected, the originally rich forests are gradually withering, and large areas of trees are withering. The rivers that originally raised countless creatures are now only a hundred miles of dry riverbed.
Fortunately, after nearly half a day''s search, they finally found the lake.
Lakes are actually just larger puddles. These are not oases, but shallow drinking tanks on the vast field.
But this is enough to make the little dragons overjoyed. This water pool is enough for the daily residence of the young dragons. Caesar is right. Now it is at the peak of the dry season, and the thirst will summon a steady stream of animals. There are many creatures wandering around the water pool.
As long as they can stand here, they are not short of meat throughout the dry season.
Although they prefer fish and aquatic organisms, at this time, in order to survive, the two young dragons have no choice but to endure.
"Oh."
The young dragons cheered each other and couldn''t wait to rush into the sink, drink to quench their thirst, roll in the mud and let the mud cover their bodies.
But Caesar''s look was a little dignified. This place does not belong to them at present. Where there are prey, there are predators. His eyesight is better than that of other young dragons. It is obvious that there are large crocodiles floating in the water, weeds in the wild, and traces of the activities of barbed tailed lions and terrible wolves.
They came too late.
Giant crocodiles, thorn tailed lions, terrible wolves, hyenas and leopards have already occupied this land. The banquet is full. There is always another mouth waiting for every drop of blood.
Without the arrival of an adult black dragon, even a young dragon, these guys can only escape with their tails.
But Caesar is not. The three of them are just newborn dragons.
Although other predators can feel the threat, they are always wandering and unwilling to leave this food rich land.
