Chapter 8: The Extinct Winged Dragon

As a magizoologist, Rove has followed Newt all these years and is well-informed.

If he were to ask him about the biggest egg he had ever seen, it would undoubtedly be a bird's egg.

The elephant bird, a magical animal that lives in the Madagascar reserve, is only over three meters tall, but the height of the eggs is generally between 30 and 40 centimeters, and the diameter varies from 21 to 25 centimeters.

It is the size of 150 ordinary eggs stacked on a stack, and it looks larger than a human head.

Even the largest fire dragon in the world, the Ukrainian Iron Belly, is not as big as a bird's egg!

And at this moment, Rove was in the iron vault of Kulgar, and saw an egg that was twice as big as an elephant bird's egg, how could he not be shocked?

Rove carefully took the egg, which was more than half a meter high, out of the box, and held it in his arms.

It's not just big...... It is also rich in texture and color, so much so that at first glance Rove thought that its shell was a brilliant gem.

As he lifted it, the sunlight shone through the glass of the cabin on the egg, shining like a throw.

In Rove's brain, there was a sudden "ding".

[An unhatched Pterodactyl egg is detected, triggering side quest 1:]

Help the Magic Pterodactyl Egg hatch and reward Magic:

【Dark Hour】

[Can absorb all the light in the vicinity like a magic winged dragon, thus forming absolute darkness]

【Side Mission 2】

Complete 100% Taming of the Magic Pterodactyl and reward Magic:

【Light and Magic】

[The surface of the skin can absorb light energy, enrich carbon dioxide and water into organic matter and magic, and release oxygen at the same time (unfinished)]

Rove looked at the system reward in amazement, now he is really a "vegetative person", and he can rely on light to provide for himself!

Underneath the egg, there was a pile of gold coins and gems, and a slender crown made of gold and sapphires, with a two-tailed mermaid carved in crystal on the front, through which the sunlight scattered rainbow light.

In addition, there is a silver scepter, about four feet long, engraved with runes and ornate decorations, and the top of the scepter is carved into the form of a mermaid with a large dragon crystal, and the ruby eyes shimmer with blood.

Rove ended up seeing a pile of bottles, and he picked up one of them and found a label engraved on it.

When he read the label clearly, a flash of disbelief flashed in his eyes.

……

……

Inside the huge cave, there was a deafening sound.

The sound came from a behemoth beast that was asleep, its jaws and nostrils purring like thunder.

Beneath its limbs and coiled huge tail are piles of precious treasures:

Cast and uncast gold, gems and jewels, as well as mountains of ...... Bones.

The beast awoke from its slumber and turned its head to look out of the cave.

Behind it, there is a vast lake, the water temperature seems to be high, and the foggy steam is constantly bubbling.

"You feel it, too, don't you? My dear son......"

A coquettish voice sounded, and it seemed to come from the bottom of the lake, but it seemed to come from all directions, and the cave was full of whispers.

"Yes...... Mother...... I felt it...... Father's breath...... ...... closer," the beast said bitterly.

A moment later, in the mist of ethereal mist, a wonderful figure surfaced.

There is no strand of her body, and her soothing and feminine lines and mellow and graceful posture loom in the mist.

When she was completely out of the water, the two slender fish tails turned into two thighs like mutton fat and jade.

The woman walked from the water to the shore naked, and when she came ashore, her whole body was covered in golden scales

She walked up to the giant beast, reached out and touched it, her eyes were sharp, and she said coldly:

"Then go eat him...... My son...... Eat your father......"

"Your father abandoned us, and he stole your mother's things...... Go eat him......"

"Eat my father...... Eat your father's ......"

The monster stood up, spread its wings, and flew out of the cave.

……

……

Rove stayed in Captain Carlos' cabin for a long time before returning to his room with the iron vault.

Kurga's body was taken away by Captain Carlos, but he didn't take the box of treasures.

When he encountered the ghost ship, Captain Carlos was afraid of the curse and did not want to touch anything on the ship, and he still does.

At this time, Shirley was writing a thesis on cross-pollinated plants, a summer assignment assigned by Professor Sprout.

Seeing the boy come back, she stopped the quill, got up and walked, and asked softly, "How is it?" ”

"The body is sure to be Kulga himself." Rove put down the box and sat down on the sofa, he took the hot tea handed by Shirley, took a sip, and said:

"We contacted his ex-wife again with a two-way mirror to find the key to the iron vault."

Rove put down his teacup as he spoke, took the cabinet out of the black leather case, and opened the door with the key.

Shirley sat down next to the boy and looked into the cupboard, like Rove, and saw the egg for the first time.

She observed for a moment, and asked curiously, "What kind of magical creature's egg is this?" ”

"Winged Dragon."

"Pterodactyl?" The ponytailed girl was confused, "How come I've never heard of such a magical creature?" ”

"You've heard of it...... I've told you once before, and you've even seen it with your own eyes. ”

Rove smiled and reminded: "That summer, in the Romanian Fire Dragon Sanctuary...... Remembered? ”

Shirley frowned in thought.

Rove is talking about the summer vacation two years ago, she secretly left the convent and took the Orient Express to Romania to find Rove, and stayed there with him for a summer.

That summer, they walked around the entire Fire Dragon Sanctuary and saw a lot of interesting things...... Wait a minute!

Shirley suddenly remembered, her eyes widened, and she said, "You mean...... That 100-meter-long fossilized dragon skelet? ”

"That's right." Rove nodded and said, "That fire dragon corpse bone fossil is the Demon Wing Dragon!" ”

Two years ago, the dwarf dug up a 100-meter-long fire dragon fossil from the mine, and Rove took Shirley to visit it.

Later, it didn't take long for the fossil to be stolen in plain sight, and the Aurors did not find the murderer, and it became an unsolved case.

Rove later learned that the dragon fossil had been "stolen" by Corvinus Gaunt and placed in the Department of Mysteries.

Shirley recalled the fossils of that year, and said with an incredulous face:

"I remember you told me at the time that the hundred-meter fire dragon had been extinct for more than 10,000 years......"

"Yes, according to the fossils excavated by archaeology over the years, the Demon Pterodactyl perished in the apocalyptic catastrophe 10,000 years ago." Rove said with a serious expression:

"But now it seems that they are not extinct and still live on the island of Avalon."

"How can you be sure that such an egg must be from Avalon?" Shirley asked curiously.

"Well, that's the proof!" Rove said, picking up a bottle and handing it to the ponytailed girl.

Shirley took the bottle, and when she read the label on the bottle, her pupils shrank suddenly.

I saw that there was a very small word on it, which read:

Good luck spring water!
