Fang Zheng never thought that he would have such an experience.

To be honest, Fang Zheng didn't have any idea about this little fire dragon at first. He wanted to just sweep it away and then turn around and leave. But the little fire dragon seemed to have recognized him, and once Fang Zheng swept it away, it ran over to rub against him, as if it was playing a game with him. Later, Fang Zheng simply didn't bother to care about it, and flew up to the sky to leave, and then he heard the little fire dragon screaming at the top of its lungs, "Ah ah" as if it was parting with life and death. Fang Zheng had no choice but to think about it and decided to take it with him.

Just think of it as picking up a kitten. What else can you do? Although Fang Zheng has killed many fire dragons, this little guy is so close to him and he just gave birth. It's not a good idea to kill it too.

However, the biggest headache for Fang Zheng was the food problem for Charmander. The Time Dragon devoured time and basically didn't need to eat. But Charmander couldn't do that. Fang Zheng found that most of the living creatures on the ground had been eaten by the fire dragons. He didn't know if there were any penguins or polar bears left in the North and South Poles. After all, fire dragons could breathe fire, so they definitely wouldn't like that kind of place.

Fortunately, the fire dragon cannot swim, so the creatures in the sea escaped. So now, apart from spending most of Fang Zheng's time on the road, the rest is basically spent on hunting in the sea.

Just like now.

“Boom.”

The huge black dragon flapped its wings and landed on the dock. It stretched out its front paws and threw a small shark on the ground. Then Fang Zheng glanced around and shouted loudly.

"Little guy, it's time to eat!"

"ah--!"

Hearing Fang Zheng's voice, the little fire dragon fluttered in the ruins not far away, then ran out happily. It first came to Fang Zheng's side, stretched out its head and rubbed Fang Zheng's body, then came to the shark, first roasted the shark half-cooked with a "whoosh", then opened its mouth and started to eat it with a crunching sound.

What a strange little guy.

Looking at the little fire dragon in front of him, Fang Zheng curled his lips. He also found that this little fire dragon seemed to be different from its other members. It was not only the color of its scales that was different, but in fact, the intelligence of this little fire dragon was also higher than that of its members. Fang Zheng compared them and found that the adult fire dragons he had encountered basically had the intelligence of the most ordinary beasts, but the intelligence of this little fire dragon was twice as high as theirs, basically the same as a three or four-year-old human child.

Not only that, its eating style is also different from other fire dragons. Other fire dragons basically swallow raw food in one mouthful. But this little fire dragon knows how to roast food with its own flames...

If Fang Zheng had not probed the other party's thoughts and confirmed that this was really just a little fire dragon that had been born not long ago, he would have really suspected that this was some unlucky guy who was reborn into the wrong body.

Of course, this little fire dragon is not without flaws. Its size is about one-third smaller than other fire dragons of the same kind. Fang Zheng also found that this little fire dragon seems to be very weak, and it does not have the strong scales of other fire dragons. If it were a human, it would be a weak and sickly person.

Probably increase intelligence to 18, and only increase constitution by 3 points?

While Fang Zheng was thinking, the little fire dragon also ate enough. It raised its head, burped with satisfaction, and blew fire. Then it staggered back to Fang Zheng's side, curled up like a kitten, and raised its head to look at Fang Zheng. Looking at the little fire dragon's bright eyes, Fang Zheng smiled helplessly, then stretched out his paw and placed a picture book in front of the little fire dragon. When the little fire dragon saw the picture book, it immediately cried out in excitement, then stretched out its paw to open it and began to carefully appreciate the patterns inside.

"See anything interesting again?"

"ah……"

Hearing Fang Zheng's question, the little fire dragon raised its head, called out to Fang Zheng, and then looked at the picture album in front of it again. This was also a unique hobby of the little fire dragon that Fang Zheng discovered. Just like many children, it seemed to be particularly interested in those colorful paintings. Before, in a city ruin, it stared at a billboard that was lucky enough not to be destroyed by the fire dragon. Later, it found a fashion magazine "Survived a Disaster" from somewhere and flipped through it for a long time. It was at that time that Fang Zheng also discovered this little hobby of the little fire dragon. In the spirit of early childhood education, when he went out to hunt and kill those fire dragons, he would also use magic to search in the city ruins. If he found a good-looking picture album, he would bring it back to the little guy.

The little guy was also quite fascinated by these picture books, but he seemed to be a little "dislike the old and love the new", and after reading a picture book, he lost interest in it. However, Fang Zheng also found that the little dragon was not just flipping through the books for the sake of doing things, on the contrary, he seemed to be very interested in anything with "patterns" printed on it. Whether it was a fashion magazine, an animation picture, or even an art book, he could read it with great interest.

I never thought that I would raise such a weirdo.

Looking at the little fire dragon beside him, Fang Zheng was somewhat speechless. After investigating the fire dragons over the past few days, he had basically understood this species.

They ate and slept, gave birth when they woke up, and ate again after giving birth. They were just like a group of locusts. No wonder Fang Zheng didn't see any forests here except the dry grassland. I'm afraid that even the trees were eaten by these guys. Fortunately, the fire dragon can't swim, otherwise the sea might also be affected.

In comparison, this little fire dragon is indeed an outlier among outliers.

However, how much time power do I need to plunder in order to "upgrade"?

Thinking of this, Fang Zheng started to have a headache again. He had already traveled across most of Europe and had basically wiped out all the fire dragons here, but he could feel that he had only absorbed more than half of the power of time. To put it in an analogy, it was like a person feeling full, but not so full that he could pat his round belly and say, "No, I can't hold on any longer."

But this is not the only thing that is giving Fang Zheng a headache.

He had no illusions about his luck. Although the growth of a time dragon was "random", Fang Zheng had never thought of growing directly into an ancient dragon. This meant that he might need to plunder time many times to achieve his goal. However, the number of fire dragons in this world was limited. Fang Zheng felt that even if he dealt with all the fire dragons, he would not be able to reach the level of an ancient dragon.

But now... forget it, let's solve the problem at hand first, and deal with the future later.

"Um?"

At this moment, Fang Zheng suddenly raised his head and looked at the other side of the city ruins. Although it was dozens of kilometers away, as a person with dragon blood and perception that had been improved to B+, Fang Zheng almost immediately sensed that on the other side of the city ruins, there was a fire dragon chasing prey, and what it was chasing was a horse - no, that's not right! Thinking of this, Fang Zheng's eyes suddenly widened.

That's human breath!

Oh my god, there are humans here?

"Little guy, let's go!"

Thinking of this, Fang Zheng hurriedly grabbed the little guy and put the picture book back. The little fire dragon that Fang Zheng caught cried out in dissatisfaction, and then climbed onto Fang Zheng's back in a familiar way - different from the simple physical flight of the fire dragon. Fang Zheng's flight is the flight mode of the dragons in the main world - his wings are more of a prop to assist in flying, and when Fang Zheng flies in the sky in the form of a time dragon, he is more like changing his actions through the flow of time.

To put it simply, the flight of the Time Dragon is somewhat similar to a low-profile version of "time travel" because it is actually soaring in the flow of time. Therefore, Fang Zheng is not affected by any external factors during the flight. Even the most violent storm cannot affect Fang Zheng in the slightest.

Because of this, the little fire dragon lying on his back would not fall off even if Fang Zheng turned his body over, because its position was constant in the flow of time. As long as Fang Zheng did not give it the possibility of "falling off his back in the next second", it would not fall off his back in the next second.

In just a few breaths, Fang Zheng crossed the entire city. Soon, he spotted the fire dragon hovering in the sky and the desperately fleeing figure not far in front of the fire dragon.

That was a human being.

Fang Zheng was very sure of this. At this moment, the man was wrapped in rags and was riding a horse. Not far above their heads, the fire dragon was hovering and waiting to attack. It can be seen that the man was lucky and dodged several attacks in a row. But unfortunately, the fire dragon seemed to be determined to get its prey.

"roar--!!"

Finally, the man's horse seemed to have reached its limit and began to slow down. Noticing this, the fire dragon roared and pounced on its prey again. This time, the man on the horse also realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly whipped the horse, trying to speed up again to avoid the fire dragon's attack. But what the man didn't expect was that after such a long time of running, the horse was already exhausted. Now that it was frightened by the fire dragon, it screamed directly, and its front legs softened and fell to the ground. The rider's reaction was not slow. At the moment the horse fell, she quickly rolled sideways, jumped off the horse's back, and then rolled to hide on the ground.

At the same time, scorching flames fell from the sky and completely burned the horse into charcoal.
