"Maybe there is no connection between the two, but it just so happens that this creature looks very similar to the so-called 'earth dragon' in the legend."

As a scholar, Alva has a more rational way of looking at things and has a different focus.

Moreover, since it can survive in the Golden Township, it means that there is a relatively complete ecosystem in the Golden Township.

This will be another huge discovery in the New World Biodiversity Survey! ”

Feng Ying couldn't care so much, pinching the neck of the creature that she thought was an earth dragon and tying it up with a trap net.

He took some more numbing medicine to numb it so that it wouldn't hurt itself in the ongoing struggle, and threw it into the pannier at Amber's side.

That's right, she's going to take the earth dragon back and keep it in the house as a pet.

Alva's eyes jumped, but he didn't say anything.

The New World is extremely rich in biological resources, not only hunters, but many people like to catch interesting creatures when they see them, as pets or decorate their houses.

He had rabbits, eels, lizards, spiders, Archaeopteryx in his own house, and the house was full of flying and running, and Rania had taught him more than once, and he still couldn't control the hand that fired the net.

"While the Brilliant Dragon is leaving, we haven't come back yet, so we'll disperse and explore." Anhill spoke, retrieving everyone's attention.

"Sort out the topographic map of Golden Township as soon as possible, and if you find strange creatures, you can capture them, draw them or take pictures.

But remember, try not to hurt them, the smell of blood in the lair may irritate the Radiant Dragon. ”

The captains of the other two teams said that after receiving them, the three teams split up to investigate.

Anhill and the others chose a direction in which the ground was obviously sloping downward, probably because of the lower terrain, and the gold in the cave was accumulating more and more.

Huge golden pillars connecting the upper and lower parts can be seen everywhere, and there are even stacked marks on the ground that resemble ocean waves.

"Don't you think, it's getting hotter?" Feng Ying touched the sweat on her forehead and muttered.

Anhill half-squatted down, pressed his palm to the ground, and felt it for a moment, "The ground is warm, could it be that this gold has not been brought here for a long time, and it has not completely cooled down." ”

"I think it's more likely to come from geothermal heat, the nearby strata are thinner, and it's not surprising that you come into contact with magma at this depth, and with the thermal conductivity of gold, the heat spreads easily." Alva suggested another possibility:

"Perhaps, it is in this way that the Brilliant Dragon is transforming the cold and dark leyline corridor into an environment suitable for its survival."

Protected in the center of the line, Aibo held a notebook and answered the call while recording information based on the surrounding terrain.

"However, with such a huge amount of gold, even the Brilliant Dragon can't collect it, carry it, and use it to decorate the Golden Township, right?

Could they be social creatures?

A group of people wandered underground in the New World for a long time, gradually collecting gold and various metals from the deposits, and jointly established the Golden Country. ”

"Makes sense."

"It's very likely."

Anhill and Alvazizi agree with Aibo's speculation.

Seeing that the three of them were discussing enthusiastically, Jean also joined in, "There is more and more gold, we must be drilling into that guy's lair now!" ”

He carried a sledgehammer and said with a grin: "You say, if you want to build a nest, the Brilliant Dragon should be in the ruins, so the ruins must be in front!" ”

Anhill, Alva, and Aibo looked at each other.

Jean's guess is illogical, but both Fengying and Gail feel reasonable, as for the reason?

Don't ask, asking is intuition.

As they walked, a hole with a diameter of more than ten meters and obvious traces of burning appeared in front of the group.

Looking at the opening, Jean couldn't help but think back to the lava realm he had found in the Land of Dragon's Crystal.

The Yan Fei Dragon also used the ultra-high temperature of the flame breath to melt the rock wall used for separation, and entered the hidden lair.

And the melt marks on the edge of the hole in front of me are almost exactly the same as that.

It's just that there was still magma flowing in that place at that time, and the one in front of me has already solidified.

"Lao Tzu bets 1000z, and if you go in, you will be in the lair of the Brilliant Dragon! And this is definitely the entrance to the ruins! Jean turned, his face full of confidence.

"The old lady called!"

"Me too! Follow 100z! ”

Gail Fengying expressed his stance one after another.

Anhill stared at the three guys who lacked tension with a dark face, "Knowing that it could be the ancient dragon's lair, you don't want to raise my vigilance?"

From now on, whoever has one more meaningless nonsense will be deducted 1000z in compensation. ”

Knowing that Anhill always did what he said, Feng Ying Gene shut up.

Only Gail smacked his mouth fearlessly, "You're really boring, isn't it your own to detain me?"

I'll go grab food from Fufu when I run it out, and you can still starve me to death? ”

Anhill choked.

However, she only stiffened her mouth, and after choking on the words, she obediently closed her mouth, and came to Aibo's side with a light crossbow to guard to avoid the compiler being injured in the event of a sudden attack.

The entire team adjusted into a compact defensive formation, with Feng Ying and Jean as the two heavily armed swordsmen, and entered the hole.

It is a huge cave with a large circular shape, the top of the cave is more than 100 meters high, and the top is even close to the surface, and the sun shines through the cracks.

It is a palace made of gold.

The golden pillars, lined up on the sides, support the platforms that are also made of gold, and on the platforms are more giant pillars, layer upon layer, until they reach the top of the cave.

At the top, directly below the crack that let in sunlight, is a stunningly intricate chandelier with a diameter and height of more than 20 meters.

The dangling golden chain reflects the sunlight and emits a brilliant golden light that can psychedelic souls.

Even the well-informed Anhill couldn't help but lose his mind for a few seconds.

“**！ Lao Tzu knows! Sure enough, the ruins are here! Jean couldn't help but exclaim, "The ancient civilization of * is really rich! Do you build a house out of gold?! ”

"That's not right! This is not a relic of an ancient civilization! ”

Alvara pulled down the multi-purpose lens on his head, adjusted the focus, and carefully observed the details of the golden pillar and the golden chandelier.

"These are not man-made objects, look at the details, those ornaments that look like patterns are actually natural patterns formed under the flow of molten gold!"

"You're saying these things are 'natural?'!" Gail pointed to the golden chandelier, tilted his head and said to Alva, "Compared to that thing, the chandelier in the old lady's house is a candle, okay?" ”

"Of course it can't be natural, but their creators aren't humans!" The astonishing discovery in front of him made Alva's emotions a little out of control.

"It's the Brilliant Dragon! The Brilliant Dragon manipulated the gold and built this golden palace in the depths of the Golden Country!

Oh my God, do they have the concept and heritage of 'art'? Look at these pillars and platforms, they have even developed 'architecture'!

Could it be that under the New World, there is a special civilization composed of Brilliant Dragons?! ”

"That."

Ai Bo raised his hand and whispered, "I think it's more likely that the Brilliant Dragon has witnessed similar architectural shapes and decorations from some ruins.

And then imitated it in gold, right? ”

“.”

Alva was silent for a moment, and then smiled dryly: "Also, your guess is more reasonable."
