Lilia was awakened by hunger. When she woke up, it was already evening. The sun was about to set and the forest was getting dark.
The jungle was extremely quiet in the evening, with only the sounds of insects and birds chirping.
Lilia lowered her head and covered her rumbling belly with one of her short paws, saying to it, "Stop rumbling."
However, as soon as she finished her words, her stomach growled even louder, protesting against her.
“Gugu——”
This was the first time that Lilia felt hungry. Only then did she realize how uncomfortable being hungry was.
Although Lilia didn't know where she was now, she understood that she was brought to this strange place by the black hole and was separated from her parents and tribesmen.
Now that her parents and tribesmen are no longer with her, Lilia knows that she can only survive on her own.
Crying can't solve the problem, especially since she had already cried a lot, so Lilia didn't continue crying at this moment.
She sniffed and walked into the woods.
She was very hungry, so she went to find something to eat so that she would have the strength to look for her family.
Although Lilia was very weak and had difficulty standing up when she was born, she can now walk steadily.
Although she couldn't tell the direction, her sense of smell was extremely sensitive. She walked forward, sniffing as she walked, trying to determine the location of the food by the aroma it gave off.
Soon, she smelled a faint fragrance in the air. Her eyes lit up immediately and her pace quickened.
As the distance got closer, the fragrance became stronger.
Finally, Lilia saw the thing that exuded an alluring aroma.
It was a tree more than ten meters high, full of red fruits, and the fragrance was the aroma emitted by these fruits.
She swallowed, ran straight to the tree.
Although she couldn't recognize the fruit, her intuition told her that it was edible.
What's more, these fruits have been eaten by other small animals.
If it were poisonous, those small animals would not eat the fruit.
Originally, there were many small animals eating fruits under and on the tree. When Lilia approached, they seemed to sense that something terrible was approaching, and they immediately stopped eating and fled in panic, scattering like birds and beasts. Soon, the originally lively jungle became quiet.
Animals have the ability to sense danger instinctively. Although Lilia is weak, she is a powerful dragon. Her smell frightened the small animals, so they fled from here.
Lilia knew nothing about this.
All she had eyes for was the tempting red fruit.
The fruits on the tree were too high, and she could not reach them unless she could fly.
She turned her head and looked at the wings on her back. They were small and fleshy, and could not carry her to fly at all. So she had to give up the fruit on the tree.
She is still young, and her little wings have not yet fully grown, so she can't fly.
If you can't pick the fruits on the tree, you can only look for the fruits that have fallen on the ground.
It was already very dark and the fruits on the ground were difficult to see, but this was not a big problem for Lilia because she had night vision.
There were a lot of fruits fallen on the ground, but most of them were rotten, or had been eaten by small animals, leaving only the shells.
However, Lilia still found a few intact fruits.
She opened her mouth and took a bite of the fruit, the juice slid down her teeth into her throat.
Really delicious!
Lilia opened her eyes wide in surprise.
The fruit was the size of an adult's fist. Normally, Lilia would be full after eating three, but she was so hungry at the moment that she ate five whole fruits before stopping.
If her stomach hadn't been so full, she would probably not have stopped and would have continued eating.
It was already night, and it was pitch black all around. The temperature in the forest was extremely low at night, and the cold wind blowing on her body made Lilia sneeze.
“A-choo!”
Lilia sniffed and curled up her small body.
It was pitch black all around, and the roar of wild beasts could be heard from far ahead, which made Lilia feel a little scared.
“Lilia, you are a powerful dragon, a descendant of the great dragon, how can you be afraid! This is a sign of weakness. Even if your father and mother are not around, you must be strong!” Lilia clenched her little paws and cheered herself up.
In this way, Lilia spent the first night in the forest alone with the little dragon.
Lilia slept very deeply that day and even had a dream. In the dream, she was sleeping in her own little nest made of gems and gold coins. When she woke up and opened her eyes, she saw her mother standing in front of her little nest, holding her favorite berries in her hands.
"Mother..." Lilia closed her eyes and murmured.
The little beast in the dream slept very restlessly
There are many wild animals in the forest, and it is full of unknown dangers. Even when you are sleeping, you must remain vigilant.
However, the young Lilia did not know all this. Fortunately, the scent of dragons and the powerful aura on her body made other animals mistakenly believe that there were powerful beasts here and they did not dare to approach. Therefore, she, a weak young dragon alone in the forest, did not encounter any danger.
Otherwise, as she is weak now, she has no ability to protect herself.
