161: USB flash drive

"Uncle He, I found a Dragon skull there."

Li Canglan thought for a moment before deciding to speak about it.

"What?!"

He Qianxun, who hadn't been paying much attention, had his expression change instantly, his eyes flashing with intensity.

For people in this era, a municipality that had disappeared was not worth much attention.

But a Dragon skull was a completely different matter!

A single flood dragon from before could make the entire Luo Feng City fall into despair!

Let alone a true Dragon?

"Are you sure you didn't see it wrong? Is it a true Dragon's skull?"

Li Canglan nodded, "Absolutely."

He Qianxun couldn't wait to pull Li Canglan up and head out of the city.

"Uncle He, that Dragon bone has already weathered away."

Li Canglan found an excuse and explained, "That Dragon bone must have been there for quite some time. After coming into contact with the outside air, it weathered and eroded quickly, and now it has disappeared."

Upon hearing this, Uncle He's gaze slowly changed from bright to helpless.

"Sigh, I originally thought I could find some Opportunity from the Dragon bone."

Uncle He sighed. Indeed, how could the Opportunities in this world be so easily obtained?

Just then, Li Canglan changed the subject, "However, I picked up a USB drive where the Dragon skull dissipated."

"A USB drive?"

Uncle He was stunned.

Who would put a USB drive inside a Dragon skull?

As for whether the Dragon had swallowed the USB drive, He Qianxun didn't even consider that point.

What kind of USB drive could withstand the Dragon Clan's powerful digestive capabilities?

The two of them arrived in the room and inserted the USB drive to read the data.

They discovered that there wasn't much information inside the USB drive, only a series of intermittent voice recordings.

"A few days ago, the military found a massive Dragon Clan corpse in the desert..."

"For the myths and legends of Shenxia Country, this is absolutely an epoch-making discovery..."

"To avoid causing public panic, the officials have concealed this news..."

"And they have involved over a dozen high-tech groups to participate in the research on the divine Dragon corpse..."

"Although we signed confidentiality agreements and cannot release this news, for us, this will definitely be a great event that brings honor to our ancestors in the future!"

"I didn't expect that we would actually discover some secrets."

"The material on this Dragon Clan member does not seem to belong to Blue Star, but it seems to have traveled from the deep sea, carrying some substances that only exist in the deep sea."

"However, because our exploration of the deep sea is still limited by the development of technology, we cannot determine whether this true Dragon came from outside Blue Star, or if there is a passage from the deep sea to the outside world."

"In recent years, the frequency of various mutations has become higher and higher, and I have developed some ominous premonitions."

The following part was intermittent static.

"The latest test results from the instruments have detected energy fluctuations from the Dragon corpse. This Dragon corpse does not seem to be completely dead! Or perhaps, does a true Dragon have regenerative abilities?"

"The data on the instruments began to skyrocket at an unimaginable speed. Could the true Dragon be about to revive?"

"As the totem of Shenxia Country, is this a blessing or a disaster for Shenxia Country?"

"Oh no, the space alarm suddenly issued a violent warning sound. This is space collapsing!"

"A space rift appeared at the Dragon's head. We tried throwing a cup over, but there was no reaction."

"The space rift is getting bigger and bigger. We reported this matter to the military, but the military is also helpless."

"The military set up a cordon around the building and summoned elites from the scientific research community to come."

"That was close, that was close. A monster just broke out of the space rift. The monster was extremely ferocious and killed over a dozen researchers. Fortunately, the military soldiers were there, otherwise, it might have caused a huge riot."

"The progress of the research has slowed down a lot these past few days. From time to time, unknown monsters jump out of the space rift."

"The officials seem to be discussing how to deal with this space rift. Dammit, is there no way to seal the space rift?"

"Just a moment ago, Old Huang died too. If this continues, I'm afraid our mental state will collapse before we can find any results."

"The officials have finally revealed some news. This true Dragon probably really came from another world."

"This should have been good news, proving that there are planets suitable for survival besides Blue Star, but we can't be happy at all."

"I don't want to investigate the biological principles of this true Dragon anymore, but why would such a powerful existence die in the desert?"

"For it, a single flight should have been enough to reach an oasis, or even a city. It's impossible to think it died of thirst in the desert, right?"

"Or perhaps, for us, these newly discovered existences are just so elusive."

"Oh no, the space rift suddenly expanded. Dozens of monsters that looked extremely similar to humans rushed out from inside. The military's firearms do not seem to have a very strong lethal effect on them!"

"I seem to... hear the sound of ocean waves... real ocean waves... they instantly swallowed the entire city... I suppose I'm going to die, right?"

"Someone like me who can't swim and is afraid of water will actually drown here one day."

"My body seems to have changed. The seawater doesn't seem to be able to drown me."

"But this place has now become a dead city. The only ones who survived are the dozens of us who participated in the research."

"I tried to leave this place, but I found that as long as I leave the water, my body feels stinging pain."

"All communication equipment is broken, and we can't contact the outside world at all. Are we just going to live in this sea and wait for death?"

"I tried it today and found that I could swim faster than most fish. However, there is no way to make a fire here, it seems I can only eat raw..."

"I seem to possess very powerful strength. I accidentally bumped into something just now and actually collapsed a house."

"I don't know how long these days will last. I can only use this waterproof computer to record it, hoping that someone will be able to see it in the future."

Most of the subsequent content was also this person's rambling.

However, as time went on, the content he entered became less and less.

Until later, he could only input some of the simplest sentences.

It looked like a human isolated in the deep mountains, slowly losing the ability to speak.

"This must have been a researcher at the time, right?"

He Qianxun's eyes contained desolation, and he said helplessly, "Just thinking about it, feeling friends dying one after another in front of you is an extremely agonizing thing."

He Qianxun was in the era of martial arts, yet he still could not easily accept life and death separations.

Let alone the people in that peaceful era back then?
