National Survival: I Supported the Dragon Nation by Hunting Dinosaurs

The approaching night, like a black cloth, shrouded the entire prehistoric jungle in an impenetrable blanket.

Hao Xiangqian's leg muscles were already sore to the limit as he frantically ran through the tangled woodland.

The branches left bloody marks on his thick arms, but he was completely unaware of them.

He had only one thought in his mind.

"Brother Yiming... hang in there! Big brother will bring men back to rescue you right away!"

That young man from Taiwan, who always spoke softly and even somewhat gently, displayed a moving display of courage at the last moment.

"Brother Hao! Hurry! You're strong; only you can get the message out!"

"I can't escape... but I can hold them off! Tell Zhang Li, their camp is located at..."

The resolute figure of Tong Yiming as he turned and charged towards the pursuers was now right before Hao Xiangqian's eyes.

The curses and snarls from the Australian athletes echoing through the dense forest behind him mingled with the energy that spurred him to unleash his last ounce of potential.

He can't stop, he can't stop for even a moment!

Suddenly, a gust of wind rushed out from the bushes on the left!

Three dark figures darted out at an astonishing speed, blocking all his escape routes.

Velociraptor!

"Get out of here!"

Hao Xiangqian's eyes were bloodshot; his survival instinct and the uncertainty of his brothers' fate drove him to a complete breakdown.

Instead of retreating, he twisted his waist and pushed off the ground, charging headlong into the velociraptor like an enraged bull!

The basic cold weapon, the machete, in his hand drew a deep and powerful arc.

The velociraptor clearly hadn't expected the two-legged creature to dare to fight back, and hastily raised its forepaws to block.

"clang!"

A crisp, metallic clang rang out.

Hao Xiangqian felt a tremendous force coming from the hilt of the knife, which made his hands go numb and caused him to stagger back two steps uncontrollably.

The velociraptor was forced back by his reckless strike, letting out an angry roar.

In that brief moment of respite, two other velociraptors flanked him from the side, their sharp claws aimed straight for his neck!

At the critical moment, Hao Xiangqian suddenly ducked and rolled on the ground, narrowly avoiding the fatal combined attack.

He dared not linger for a moment, using the force of the roll to propel himself up and plunge into the deeper jungle once more.

He dared not linger in the battle.

He might not even be able to win against one, but with three, he's doomed!

The hissing and hurried footsteps behind him clung to him like maggots, relentlessly biting at his back.

He could only rely on the complex terrain, using vines and tree roots to constantly change direction, trying to shake off these three deadly pursuers.

However, velociraptors are natural hunters of the jungle.

Their speed, endurance, and adaptability to terrain far surpass those of humans.

……

The atmosphere in the Dragon Kingdom's live broadcast room was incredibly tense.

All the audience members held their breath.

Wang Bingbing gripped the microphone tightly.

"Hao Xiangqian... he has been running continuously for nearly two hours, his physical strength is greatly depleted, and now he is entangled by three velociraptors... the situation is not optimistic!"

In the scene, Hao Xiangqian once again tripped over the vines hidden under the fallen leaves, but he reacted quickly and used his knife to brace himself.

But the pursuing velociraptor had already seized the opportunity, its deadly scythe claws aimed at his back!

"what!"

A chorus of exclamations erupted in the live stream chat.

Just then, the three velociraptors that had been relentlessly pursuing them suddenly stopped in their tracks, as if they had seen something extremely terrifying!

They scratched the ground uneasily with their front paws, making low growling sounds in their throats, but in their cruel eyes, there was... a sense of fear!

They stared intently at the darkness ahead of Hao Xiangqian, daring not to take another inch.

Hao Xiangqian also noticed that the commotion behind him had disappeared. He turned around and saw the three velociraptors baring their teeth at him, but they didn't dare to take a step forward.

He was stunned for a moment, then gasped for breath, thinking that he had finally gotten rid of the trouble for the time being.

He leaned against a huge tree fern, and before the feeling of relief at surviving the ordeal could even well up in his heart, he sensed that something was wrong with the atmosphere around him.

It's too quiet.

It was so quiet that not even a single insect chirping could be heard.

Dragon Kingdom Command Center.

Academician Ma's expression became extremely solemn at this moment.

"No!" He jumped up and leaned closer to the screen.

"Something's very wrong! Velociraptors are typical opportunistic predators; they are cunning and greedy, and would never easily give up prey that's already in their mouths!"

Wang Bingbing quickly pressed, "Academician Ma, what do you mean?"

"Their stopping only proves one thing—"

Academician Ma paused for a moment: "Ahead, there is something that even they terrify! Contestant Hao Xiangqian has trespassed into the territory of an even more apex predator!"

Upon hearing this, the atmosphere in the entire command center instantly froze.

Coach Xu's face was also filled with grief: "Hao Xiangqian's choice... is very tragic."

He couldn't possibly have been unaware of the danger ahead, but in order to reach the camp as quickly as possible for help and to save his fellow countrymen, he didn't choose to hide or observe, but instead chose to continue forward!

"He's risking his life to buy time for the rescue!"

The barrage of comments instantly went viral.

"Not a single one can be missing! Taiwan is our brother too!"

"Hao Xiangqian! Hang in there!"

"Li Shen! Where is Li Shen? Hurry and save people!"

In the jungle.

Hao Xiangqian also felt that suffocating sense of oppression.

A distinctive odor, mixed with that of some large wild beast, wafted from the darkness ahead.

He gritted his teeth and gripped the machete tightly in his hand.

There's no turning back now that we've come this far!

He gritted his teeth and walked less than fifty meters further.

Then, he abruptly stopped, his whole body frozen in place.

His pupils suddenly contracted.

Twenty meters in front of him, an enormous silhouette stood silently.

The creature was nearly ten meters long, and its head alone was larger than the entire person.

A pair of emotionless eyes stared straight at him.

Hao Xiangqian's lips trembled uncontrollably.

"Fear...fear of dragons..."

In the live broadcast room, Academician Ma's voice was trembling.

"Dragon-fearing...a socially terrifying hunter..."

"What's even more terrifying is..."

Academician Ma hadn't finished speaking, as if to confirm his judgment.

In the already dim jungle surrounding Hao Xiangqian, one pair after another of eyes, emitting a ghastly green light, lit up.

They emerged silently from behind the trees and from the bushes, completely surrounding Hao Xiangqian.

Coach Xu pointed tremblingly at the dots on the screen, his voice trembling: "One, two, three... Good heavens! A total of... thirteen! Thirteen adult Dread Dragons!"

This number struck a chord deep in the hearts of every Chinese viewer.

Hao Xiangqian was completely stunned.

run away?

Faced with such a deadly legion of thirteen apex predators, even the thought of fleeing seemed laughable.

"It's over..."

A chill ran through him, and the machete in his hand fell limp.

Endless resentment and despair engulfed him like a tidal wave.

"It was...it was only 500 meters away..."

"Brother Yiming... I'm so sorry..."
