As the rock unfolded, the entire stone mass gradually came into view before Gu Xi's eyes.
Its body is long and flat, its limbs are thick and powerful, and its tail is like a flexible whip, slapping and cracking in the air, and hitting the ground with great force.
Its grayish-brown skin, covered with uneven textures, perfectly disguises it as a rock.
Just then, a game notification sounded.
[Game Hint: Stone Lizard Found.]
Stone lizards? Gu Xi looked down at the stone lizards she had startled awake. They looked around, seemingly searching for the one who had disturbed their sleep.
She waited quietly until the stone lizards curled up into a ball again before jumping down.
After what had just happened, Gu Xi understood that these stone lizards meant her no harm; they were simply sleeping there.
They are in this state, probably because of the White Night.
Gu Xi carefully avoided the stones, trying her best not to step on them. After all, no one intended to harm her, and she didn't need to make more enemies, especially so many of them.
Thinking of this, Gu Xi recalled the number of stone lizards he had detected with his mental power; it was truly in the thousands. If he were to really confront them, it would not be a wise choice.
However, while the stone lizards were asleep, she could quietly "patrol" their territory and dwellings.
She was careful, avoiding the seemingly ordinary stones so as not to disturb the sleeping creatures. Then, she confidently roamed around the stone lizards' territory.
With such a huge number, she was really curious about what these lizards ate, drank, and how they survived.
Just as Gu Xi was carefully investigating, a huge cave came into her view. Curious, she walked inside.
As soon as we entered the cave, we saw that the passageways inside were densely covered with stone lizards.
Gu Xi exhaled and continued deeper into the passage, peering into the cave by the light of the shark pearl.
On the cave wall, stone-like eggs hang silently, arranged closely together. These eggs are round in shape and covered with fine lines on their surface.
Under the light source, these eggs looked extremely eerie.
Without thinking, Gu Xi quickened her pace. Just then, a low hissing sound broke the surrounding silence.
Gu Xi immediately became alert and quickly walked towards the direction of the sound.
As she reached the end of the cave, she saw bubbling lava flowing slowly in the rocky crevices, the red lava shimmering with a scarlet light in the darkness.
The magma released intense heat, distorting the surrounding air and filling it with a pungent odor that was truly suffocating.
However, amidst this heatwave, stone lizard eggs lay quietly beside the lava.
Are they definitely incubating eggs and not baking them?
Gu Xi was particularly shocked by the scene before her.
She moved closer to observe them carefully and discovered that the shells of these eggs had a special texture that seemed to absorb and store the heat emitted by the magma.
The stone lizard eggs glowed and dimmed as they absorbed heat, as if they were breathing. Clearly, they were alive.
Gu Xi stared thoughtfully at the stone lizard's eggshell. The eggshells of the stone lizards must be made of a material with extremely high heat resistance after they hatch.
Where are the eggshells after they hatched? Even if they nibble on some, most of the eggshells should still be there.
Thinking of this, Gu Xi felt a surge of warmth in his heart and immediately began to search around the stone lizard's cave.
