It's the 21st century, how come there are still people selling dragon eggs?

Chapter 118: The Space Agency Shot a Dragon Over the Atlantic?

Objectively speaking, having the abilities of [flight] and [teleportation], Yu Xiao now has more ways to deal with the birth of dragon eggs.

For example, holding a dragon egg while flying in the sky.

Yu Xiao could only keep running forward.

Yu Xiao wasn't sure if he would be in trouble if he was caught up by the overwhelming metal behind him, but it would definitely not end well.

"Luckily, I sold the Time Dragon earlier and obtained the [Time Domain]..."

"With the [Time Domain] activated, the trajectories of surrounding objects slowed down considerably... otherwise, given the sprinting speed of these metal objects..."

Looking at the white dragon egg that he was holding in his arms and seemed to be enjoying it very much, Yu Xiao sighed.

Fortunately, I sold the Time Dragon yesterday and obtained the [Time Domain].

Under the [Time Domain], you can slow down the surrounding time.

Otherwise, if he stopped, the metal behind him, traveling at speeds of hundreds of kilometers per hour, could injure him instantly...

I thought about it.

"Only 47 minutes left until hatching..."

Yu Xiao looked around for a moment, then chose a direction and flew there.

...

On an oil tanker with a special mission in the Northwest Atlantic.

"Sir, the location detector seems to be malfunctioning."

"I just felt a sudden wave of stuffiness... What's going on? How can it feel hot at this latitude?"

"Someone investigated and discovered that the seawater temperature is now over 40 degrees Celsius..."

A group of men in special uniforms stood on the deck, discussing amongst themselves.

Meanwhile, inside the tanker's control room.

"It wasn't just the sonar that failed; every instrument that could determine location malfunctioned."

"You mean to say that we people have completely lost our way?"

"That's about it..."

"Shift! We have the most sophisticated high-tech equipment, yet we've lost our way at sea!"

"Sir, please calm down. This might not be the worst outcome..."

"?"

"Sir, this must be a disturbance in the magnetic field. Once the magnetic field becomes disordered, then all sorts of extreme weather events will also occur..."

Several blond, blue-eyed men, their faces flushed, were arguing loudly.

About thirty nautical miles north of the oil tanker, in the air.

"There shouldn't be many people here, right?"

Yu Xiao glanced at the deep blue water below and thought for a moment.

He glanced again at the vast expanse of colorful metals behind him, suspended in mid-air, forming a "metal dragon".

"Could the incubation time be sped up?"

Yu Xiao turned to look at the white dragon egg in his arms and asked a question.

The white dragon stated that it had tried its best to eat the fragments inside the dragon egg.

However, digesting the dragon egg fragments also takes time.

[At the same time, the white dragon stated that the dragon egg fragments are not for the dragon inside the egg to eat, but for the dragon that has hatched.]

If a dragon eats too many egg fragments inside its egg, the likelihood of it maldeveloping after hatching will greatly increase.

"?"

Looking at the pop-up data panel, Yu Xiao was stunned for a moment.

There's this too?

No, you mean the Shadow Dragon is underdeveloped?

Is it fake? That mountain-sized body looks underdeveloped?

"Alright, let's wait then."

After hesitating for a few seconds, Yu Xiao sighed.

Anyway, there's hardly anyone here anymore.

...

Time passed by, second by second.

NASA Space Agency.

"This is... a photo taken by a satellite?"

"A metallic...dragon... in the northwestern Atlantic?"

"This is absurd..."

"Is the satellite broken?"

"Just checked, the satellite isn't broken, it definitely took this picture..."

A group of researchers in white overalls stood in front of a large screen, staring wide-eyed at the satellite photos on it, unable to believe their eyes.

When the photo was first received, many researchers scoffed at it.

Are you saying that in the 21st century, a dragon with a body made of metal and a length of a kilometer appeared in the northwestern Atlantic Ocean?

Are you kidding me!

Do you think this is Bermuda? Or do you believe the Loch Ness Monster is real?

If this wasn't photoshopped, I would have eaten it on the spot!

"God seems to be playing a joke on me... What are those satellite images? Can someone explain them to me?"

A staff member spread his hands, his eyes blank, and turned to look at his colleague beside him.

The colleague didn't say anything, but just stared intently at the screen in front of him.

European Space Agency.

"My God! This must be a miracle! You all better take a look at this..."

One of the staff members shouted loudly, pointing at the large screen in front of him, his face flushed.

Upon hearing the noise, the other staff members in the room all turned their heads.

next moment.

"..."

Everyone stared at the picture on the screen, mouths agape, frozen in place, utterly bewildered.

Over the northwestern Atlantic Ocean, a "dragon" made of metal coiled in the sky, stretching across the sea of ​​clouds; a small portion of the metal even fell and plunged into the seabed...

The metal dragon's body was extremely large. Even from tens of thousands of miles away, even through satellite images, one could still feel the vastness of this metal dragon.

"What is this?"

"My God, I've never seen anything like this in my entire life."

"Is this... some kind of art?"

The staff member instinctively asked the person next to them, but only received a shake of the head.

As staff members of a space agency, and as one of the most knowledgeable people about the sky in the world, they have overturned their decades-long understanding.

Russia's space agency.

"This is... God!"

A staff member rubbed his eyes and then shouted in a surprised tone.

Upon hearing this...

The middle-aged man, who had been sitting in a chair discussing philosophical questions with the blonde, blue-eyed girl next to him, frowned and stood up with some displeasure.

"Watch your words, Jamie! This is..."

Walking up behind the staff member, the middle-aged man glared at him and spoke with great dissatisfaction.

"No, supervisor, look at the satellite footage..."

The staff member was taken aback for a moment, then spoke with a pitiful expression.

But before the staff member could speak, he stopped.

"What could it be? It's just those bored guys..."

The middle-aged man waved his hand, speaking impatiently while glancing at the screen in front of him.

But next second.

"This...this is a dragon?"

The middle-aged man's pupils widened instantly.

Dragons are creatures that can be found all over the world.

Although they differ in shape, the symbolic meaning of dragons also varies greatly between Eastern and Western mythology.

But one thing is certain.

Dragons are mysterious and powerful.

"dragon?"

Upon hearing the middle-aged man's words, the other staff members in the control room came over one after another.

You mean, it's the 21st century, and you've managed to photograph a dragon?

As the staff walked in front of the large screen, they saw clearly what was being filmed on it.

Looking at the long, metallic dragon hovering over the northwestern Atlantic...

"This is... God, I've seen a dragon in my entire career!"

"This...this is actually a real dragon..."

"Quickly, quickly save the images captured by the satellite!"

"yes!"

"This is a real dragon...this is a real dragon..."

...

In contrast to the panic among space agencies of various countries around the world.

At this moment, the cargo ships, cruise ships, and other vessels still sailing on the Atlantic Ocean were filled with terror.

"Why? Why is there suddenly no signal?"

"My phone is malfunctioning, my watch is malfunctioning, and the compass isn't pointing the way. What's wrong with me?"

"What's going on? Why did this ship suddenly lose control?!"
