The black shadow fell directly to the deck, startling the pirates next to him, but they quickly calmed down. There were two cadres on the ship, a reserve cadre and her partner, and Arceus was here. This kind of The lineup makes them feel confident inside.
A few pirates bravely walked over, but before they could scold them, there was a roar of wild beasts, and a pair of red pupils in the darkness revealed a dangerous gaze.
As the searchlight on the ship shone here, a strange creature appeared on the deck. Its back was green and its belly was white. Its overall structure was similar to that of a Western dragon, but it had long hair all over its body and its front claws were integrated with its wings. In one body, the hind limbs are huge bird claws.
Its thick and long tail was spread across the deck, and its body length was roughly estimated to be eight or nine meters. However, it looked very weak now. A huge black arrow pierced its wings, and there were similar things on its body. That's what caused it to fall.
Moreover, there is an iron lock behind the black arrow, and the end of the iron lock is connected to a heavy object. It seems that someone specifically wanted to capture it.
"This thing is...a thousand-year dragon?!"
Quinn's biological knowledge allowed him to quickly recognize the species of this thing. It was a special creature called Millennium Dragon, but its name was Millennium Dragon. Their appearance was more similar to a combination of Archaeopteryx and a dinosaur.
They are called Millennium Dragons because they live long enough.
"Brother Quinn, what is the Thousand-Year Dragon?"
"A legendary creature. It is said that the bones of this thing can make people immortal, but it is false." Why he knew it was, of course, because MADS had studied this rumor.
Research on blood factors involves all kinds of strange creatures. Although the Millennium Dragon is rare, as long as it is a species that exists in this world, the World Government can always find some clues.
The ideal cemetery and birthplace of the Millennium Dragon is the Dragon Island hidden under the deep sea of the East China Sea. This island only surfaces once every thousand years, but not all Millennium Dragons can die here.
Thousand-year dragons that died outside or were born outside also exist. Through simple research and experiments, we can naturally conclude that it is just false news.
Moreover, if this is true, then it is unlikely that any Millennium Dragon will be seen in the outside world. People in the World Government will not let such creatures live outside.
No matter how much manpower and material resources they spend, they will still kill this race to collect the dragon bones and keep them in their own hands in small quantities.
The so-called secret of immortality is just a rumor. If the dragon's bones can really make the elixir of immortality, then it would be unreasonable for the thousand-year dragon itself to age and die.
However, it turns out that some people still believe in this legend, otherwise they would not be hunting the Millennium Dragon.
As for how he came to this conclusion, the scars on the Thousand-Year Dragon had already explained everything. Only humans or demi-humans would use such a thing.
Quinn was doing science popularization work to the people around him, which could be regarded as showing off his knowledge. However, when he talked about some experiments, the injured Millennium Dragon roared at him, which also caused a surge in its already injured body. More blood came out.
"What is this guy doing? Is he dying?"
"It's saying, you bastard, you actually dare to hurt one of its own kind. If you have the ability, go over to it and it will bite you to death. Well, that's probably what it means."
Elizabeth's intermittent voice sounded in Quinn's ears. As long as she studies for a while, Elizabeth will be able to communicate as freely as humans.
Adult thousand-year dragons can understand human speech, but they cannot speak human speech, and humans cannot understand their roars.
However, as we all know, all land creatures other than humans and demi-humans in the Pirate World speak the same language. This can be seen from Chopper's translation function. Whether it is a camel or a bird, even a special creature like the Kung Fu Manatee. He also understands biological things.
Blue in the Capital of Seven Waters, ordinary sea beasts, and Chopper can understand their words, but they don't seem to understand the fish. Fish and other animals probably don't use the same language.
As for the Neptunes, only each generation of Neptunes and those who can listen to all things can understand their words.
The thousand-year-old dragon's language was similar to Elizabeth's, so Elizabeth acted as the translator.
Otherwise, only Arceus on the ship would understand its words.
"It understood it wrong. What I mean is that I have studied the materials sent by others. It is the first living thousand-year dragon I have ever seen."
Quinn was not explaining to the Millennium Dragon, but to Shaina. Shaina hated the so-called experiments of the World Government the most, not only the experiments that happened to her and Abel at that time, but also the experiments on other races. Same thing.
She wouldn't go near Quinn's lab, and Quinn wouldn't mention such a thing in front of her, but this time he got a little carried away and broke their tacit understanding.
Recently, Shaina seems to have gained a lot of strength by being by Arceus' side every night, and she also has the idea of developing "Quinn Bowling", which makes Quinn have to guard against it.
"The great secret treasure of eternal life... It seems that Olga's translation is correct. I think the direction of the treasure map is the island where this thousand-year-old dragon lives."
Quinn began to change the topic, but the method of changing the topic was very stiff and the effect was not obvious. Just when he had a headache, someone came to help him, and a cannonball was fired directly around the hull.
The aroused waves scattered around Arceus, and the water soaked the deck next to Arceus. Quinn's eyes almost gleamed when he saw all this.
"Lord Arceus! Someone dares to disturb your purity. This is unforgivable! I will go and catch them right now!"
Quinn transformed into a tropical dragon and flew into the air, rushing in the general direction, leaving only the pirates on the boat looking at each other.
"Does this bastard dare to act more exaggeratedly..."
"Shaina, you should go with him, I don't think he is reliable."
"As you command, Lord Holy Beast, I will deal with those who fired the cannons right now." He waved his wings and caught up with Quinn who flew out early, while Arceus walked to the Millennium Dragon.
Since this thing lived a long time, they might know some things from the past.
If the stone slab can appear in the belly of a sea king, there is a possibility that it will appear in the nest of a thousand-year-old dragon.
The struggle just now was the last of the thousand-year dragon's strength. At this time, it was lying on the deck extremely weak.
