There was a piercing cry in the sky.
At first, some people thought that it was the cry of the Pterosaurs. The sound was sharp, like the whistle from a boiling kettle––but it was actually the sound of friction brought about by thin wings slicing rapidly through the high alt.i.tude air.
The 12 meter wingspans were frightening––they were like two sharp knives that symbolized absolute power in the air.
2000 kilometers below them, the noise on the ground suddenly turned into hasty exclamations, “There’s a person, there’s someone on the back of the Pterosaur––”
Wei Shi sat on the back of the flying dinosaur, breaking through the thick clouds and mist.
Indomitable.
In the forest, Caesar was so shocked his mouth dropped open. He nudged his teammate with an elbow, “His dinosaur… this dinosaur of theirs, did it come down from the sky, or was it a.s.signed to them by the program group? Where can we go to get one? Is it too late now…”
The two contestants from Dolma Entertainment had dazed looks on their faces, “So cool…”
Beside them, the Tyrannosaurus Rex roared up at the Quetzalcoatlus, its hind legs kicking up dust and stone. They were both existences that were at the top of the food chain, and both of them struggled for millions of years during the Cretaceous period. The violence in their bones was aroused, and a battle of life and death was imminent.
In the Crosson Show broadcast studio, while the audience was cheering and excited, the camera operators hurriedly adjusted the view to a low-alt.i.tude focus!
The Pterosaurs were now less than a hundred meters from the ground. They spread out their wings and shifted into a glide.
These giant creatures became even more stunning as they neared the camera. Even without considering the wingspan, they were as tall as a giraffe as they hung suspended in the air. The Pterosaurs had no soft fur or cute stripes, no watery eyes or weak antlers––they only had a dark blue, intimidating crown, veined, membranous wings, and cold, emotionless eyes.
The little camera operator vaguely recalled that Contestant Wei’s eyes were similarly cold and emotionless. The camera continued to pan up, finally bringing the dinosaur rider into view––
Ying Xiangxiang covered up her mouth exaggeratedly, her cheeks red.
The man’s eyes were indifferent in their deep eye sockets, but there was a flare of fire immersed in the ice of his pupils. His back was straight and firm despite the fierce winds, in sharp contrast to the ferocious, snarling beasts beneath him––he was obviously extremely cold, but the tranquilizer gun and sharp knife he had stirred up and heated the audience’s blood.
The Pterosaur was like the G.o.d of wind that dominated the sky.
He was the master of these G.o.ds of wind.
Wei Shi glanced at the camera. He didn’t even nod before moving his gaze away as though having just looked at something insignificant.
However, the audience was shocked into frenzied cries by this gaze, “Is this some kind of fairytale dragon tamer wuwuwuk2013;k2013;”, “My king, take me to heaven!” “So handsome! The viewers for the show will surge by millions if the program streams this for two daysk2026; and me as well! Little brother, I want you!”
Ying Xiangxiang moved away from the microphone and murmured soundlessly to herself, “Not lowering his head when looking at someone, just moving his eyelids and glancing over. Are people who are S coming in to become trainees and to make trouble…”
Nearby, Blood Pigeon took over the microphone and began to explain the battle situation.
“The Quetzalcoatlus, also known as the Quetzalcoatl, is the largest living species to dominate the sky during the blue planet’s hundreds of millions of years of evolutionary history. They have the widest wingspans and the hardest skeletons. Not only were they ferocious G.o.ds that ruled over the gra.s.sland, they were also able to conquer the ocean and migrate through the wind and waves countless times during their long lifetimes.”
“They’re also one of the few ferocious animals that dared to prey on the young of the Tyrannosaurus Rex. They require a considerable amount of protein and heat generation to maintain flight.”
“Now, you can see from the camera that the two Pterosaurs are circling and landing. With most of the contestants choosing to develop carnivorous dinosaurs, Wu Jin’s and Ming Yao’s team is very interesting. Their farm is full of Diplodocuses, Stegosauruses, and Brachiosauruses, and for the Pterosaurs who have just finished a short flight, so many herbivorous dinosaurs gathered together is like having a dessert buffet table placed out in the open.” Blood Pigeon’s voice suddenly accelerated, “One of the Pterosaurs has headed for a Diplodocus!”
In the midst of this free for all battle, Ming Yao stared dazedly at the panicked group of Diplodocus as well as the relentless Quetzalcoatlus. He suddenly realized, “Oh no, Little Witch is still on the back of the Diplodocus!”
The camera chased over quickly. Wu Jin had already launched his glider and was ready to jump down from the Diplodocus that was dozens of meters high, but he was unable to tear his gaze away from the air.
The Quetzalcoatlus was the most perfect, magnificent, soul-stirring piece of art from its creator’s hands.
The big boss on the back of the dinosaur left him dazzled––
The first unmanned Pterosaur flew over, pa.s.sing by near Wu Jin.
Wu Jin held his breath.
The Pterosaur tilted its head and seemed to be looking at him curiously. The Diplodocus was dragging its heavy body as it ran, and the Pterosaur controlled its flight in the air to maintain an unhurried pursuit. It suddenly leaned over, and its wing bones retracted, following its training to pounce on the camera.
The second Pterosaur followed behind.
The dazzling sunlight was obscured by the thin membranes of the wings, and dust motes floated around, stirred up by the movement of air. In the distance, the contestants and broadcast studio’s attention was once again pulled away: the Tyrannosaurus Rex had almost stepped on the Sarcosuchus that Zoe had painstakingly raised up, and several crocodiles, both big and small, had rushed out to surround the Tyrannosaurus Rex––
At one end of the divided battlefield, Wu Jin raised his head.
The sky was shrouded by the two Pterosaurs, and the sunlight filtered through the wide wings was dim and ambiguous.
The man dismounted with a flip.
He jumped down from a distance of four meters to land on the back of the st.u.r.dy herbivorous dinosaur, his left hand with the thick sniper gloves holding onto the Pterosaur’s sharp claws. He used the gliding trajectory of the fall to pull out the tranquilizer gun across his back and load it up.
Ming Yao couldn’t make it in time to come to the rescue. Seeing this, he yelled, “No, Little Witch, hurry and run ahhhhhhh!!!”
There was dust everywhere in the air, and he only vaguely saw Wu Jin fighting like a small hooked fish before he was pulled into the blind area obscured by Wei Shi’s Pterosaurs.
Ming Yao, “Help ahhhhhh! Someone’s murdering Little Witch ahhh––”
The hand that held the tranquilizer gun aimed at Wu Jin paused. After entering the blind spot, Wei Shi’s hand suddenly stroked across the youth’s red ears, the cold, hard muzzle pressing against the youth’s soft, sensitive areas.
Wu Jin almost tossed his gun away at the same time, the soft glider splaying chaotically as he reflexively reached for the man’s shoulder, “Wei…”
The cold weapon suddenly withdrew, the leather-encased hand swiftly holding the back of the youth’s head, the pads of his fingers sliding through the soft and sweet small curls, and the second half of his sentence was forced back with a slight sobbing sound. The train of thought in the youth’s mind was broken by this forceful takeover, and he no longer remembered to open up the glider again, the glider wing sails behind him fluttering like a b.u.t.terfly’s wings in the enclosed palm of a hand.
Beautiful and gorgeous, locked in a one-sided world.
A large group of Diplodocuses was behind them. Lin Ke and Sora were both rushing over with Ming Yao to help him, and at the other end of the battlefield, the fight had turned into a brawl. Thin Fire’s Harpymimus was already fighting against Zoe’s Velociraptor, and the battle intensified further.
In the blind spot.
Wei Shi finally let go of Wu Jin, and the muzzle slid across the soft, fluffy rabbit ears as he exhaled.
Wu Jin had been bullied until he couldn’t control his slight trembling, but his face was dazed, and he giggled like he was stepping on clouds.
“Quetzalcoatlus.” The man tilted his head, bending his knees slightly so that he was the same height as Wu Jin, his hot lips right next to the youth’s earlobe, “Like it?”
Wu Jin nodded, nodded, and nodded.
Wei Shi: “It’s yours.”
Wu Jin was stunned. The overwhelming pheromones were withdrawing.
The Pterosaur called out loudly, and Wei Shi’s cloak snapped out in the wind. Wei Shi stroked a hand over the small curls one last time before leaving.
“It will circle up above. As soon as you wave, it will come down to pick you up.”
There’s a fierce beast in my heart, and the reins are in your hands.
Wu Jin nodded subconsciously.
The corners of Wei Shi’s lips lifted up slightly.
The two Pterosaurs soared up in succession.
Wu Jin stretched out his neck to see, then toppled over onto the dinosaur’s back. The Diplodocus was now surrounded by a group of Velociraptors. Wu Jin was caught off guard as he slid, barely managing to open up the glider and soften the fall––
At the outskirts of the dinosaur group, Ming Yao was seriously discussing possible strategies with his teammates, “Our team of four h.o.m.o sapiens is now down to three. We’ll be facing unprecedented difficulties from now on. My proposal is for us to form a temporary alliance with Jingyi’s Captain Zuo. You can see that Captain Zuo’s Velociraptors are fat and strong, and it’s clear they’ve been raised well…”
Ming Yao suddenly stared in shock as he looked at the youth that came out coughing and sputtering from the dust, “Little Witch?!!” He jumped up in excitement, “Little Witch is back from the dead––no, wait, Little Witch are you okay, ah we were worried for nothing just now, we were just talking about stuffing the little Pterosaur into the life-saving capsule for you to keep as a toy––”
The little Pterosaur squawked and flew into Wu Jin’s arms. It looked at Wu Jin, then looked at the huge Pterosaur up in the sky.
Wu Jin could actually see the pitiful appeal from its eyes––what had they eaten to grow so big? Couldn’t it have some as well?
Wu Jin lovingly stroked the little Pterosaur, but couldn’t bear to tell it that the Peteinosaurus could only grow up to 60cm at most and could only fight and play with the cat.
Ming Yao glanced at Wu Jin’s glider and finally relaxed, “Fortunately, Little Witch’s reactions were quick! You escaped from death! … How about, let’s go and fight and beat them all up?!”
