National Survival: I Supported the Dragon Nation by Hunting Dinosaurs

On the riverbank, the smell of death mingled with the fishy stench of the water.

Huang Xiaoying stared at the burly black man holding a crossbow thirty meters away, her breathing steady, but her eyes were as cold as ice.

She raised her hands, making the internationally recognized gesture of surrender.

He turned his body slightly to the side and stepped back very lightly.

"Don't shoot!"

She shouted in fluent English, her voice trembling just the right amount.

"I'll give you all the food!"

As she spoke, she bent down and took out several kinds of wild fruits that she had collected after a hard day's work, as well as a small mammal that she had just hunted.

The entire action was filled with a show of weakness and submission.

The Wildebeest Kingdom's live stream room instantly went wild.

"Hahaha! Lord Sang Biao is mighty!"

"Didn't the women of the Dragon Kingdom obediently surrender? Power is everything!"

Meanwhile, the live stream chat in China was exploding with comments.

"Despicable! Shameless!"

"I wish lightning would strike him dead!"

"Where's that Tyrannosaurus Rex from during the day? Come out and bite this bastard to death!"

"Hey upstairs, if a Tyrannosaurus Rex comes, even the Yellow Team will be in danger!"

"I wish the god of the rising sun could be here!"

Inside the cave.

"Achoo—!"

Zhang Li sneezed and rubbed his nose.

He was holding a huge banana leaf and rhythmically fanning it towards the ventilation opening at the bottom of the kiln.

Inside the kiln, flames roared and heat waves rolled in.

In order to reach the temperature required for firing seashells and pottery as quickly as possible, he had to manually increase the oxygen supply to raise the temperature inside the furnace.

He did not activate his "All-Seeing Eye" at this moment.

That would be too mentally taxing.

Moreover, the riverbank two kilometers away was already beyond his maximum exploration range.

He had no idea that his compatriots were on the verge of death.

On the riverbank.

Sang Biao enjoyed the feeling of controlling other people's lives and deaths.

He grinned, revealing his gleaming white teeth, and approached Huang Xiaoying step by step.

"Woman, you're smart to know your place."

"However, that alone is not enough."

Sang Biao's gaze swept across the distance, a glint of greed flashing in his eyes.

"I spotted a few small dinosaurs in that forest just now. Go and lure them out to use as bait!"

"If I can successfully kill the dinosaur and complete tonight's sacrifice, I'll let you go!"

Upon hearing this, several professors in the Dragon Kingdom's command center turned pale with anger.

"Despicable! This is blatant disregard for human life!"

The audience in Wildebeest Country, however, was even more excited.

"Lord Sang Biao is truly a master! Using athletes from other countries as bait—that's real survival wisdom!"

"Tonight, our Wildebeest Kingdom might be the first to eat a dinosaur!"

In the live broadcast, geologist Professor Chen stared intently at the trajectory of Huang Xiaoying's retreat on the screen, as well as the subtle changes in the color of the soil beneath her feet, a thoughtful look flashing in his eyes.

Sang Biao's footsteps drew ever closer.

Just as he was about to step into the spot where Huang Xiaoying had just stood—

Sang Biao's legs suddenly gave way.

He suddenly realized that his combat boots were sinking into the mud beneath his feet at a visible speed!

His expression changed, and he tried to pull his foot out, but he found that the more he struggled, the deeper he sank!

The edge of this riverbank appears to be dry on the surface, but in reality, it has long since turned into a man-eating swamp!

"goodbye."

Huang Xiaoying let out a contemptuous sneer, turned around and ran!

"You dare to scheme against me!"

Enraged, Sang Biao roared as his prey, which was about to escape, roared again, raised his heavy crossbow, aimed at Huang Xiaoying's back, and pulled the trigger!

Om-!

The crossbow bolt, whistling with death, hurtled straight toward Huang Xiaoying's back!

In the Dragon Kingdom live stream, the hearts of hundreds of millions of viewers were in their throats!

However, Huang Xiaoying has extensive combat experience.

The instant Sang Biao raised his hand, her running body suddenly shifted half a step to the side!

puff!

A flash of cold light, and the crossbow bolt pierced her right arm!

The immense kinetic energy caused her to stumble, and excruciating pain instantly erupted from the wound, spreading throughout her entire body!

Huang Xiaoying gritted her teeth and didn't make a sound, nor did she look back. She just rushed into the jungle ahead at an even faster speed!

"Fuck!"

Sang Biao, stuck in the mud, was so angry that he cursed loudly.

He was the top hunter on the grasslands, yet his arrow missed!

His face darkened, becoming even darker.

Compared to the harrowing life-or-death struggle on the riverbank, Zhang Li's cave was a scene of creation.

The fire in the kiln has stabilized and no longer needs his attention.

He removed the five fired pottery jars from the top of the kiln.

It must be said that the "Ceramic Master" skill is indeed very useful; each pottery jar is well-shaped and resembles a work of art.

The comments section was filled with amazement.

"Wow! This skill level is enough to make him a master chef in Jingdezhen!"

"While others were still struggling to find food, Li Shen had already begun to pursue a high quality of life."

While the audience sighed with emotion, they all silently prayed that Li Shen could meet the injured Huang Xiaoying soon.

But Zhang Li knew nothing about this.

He used a leg bone from a bird-eating dinosaur to smash the shells that had been calcined at high temperatures and turned into white powder, and then repeatedly ground them into an even finer powder.

Then, he filled a clay pot with water, poured in all the coarse salt he had collected earlier, and stirred it to dissolve.

"Li Shen's daily science mini-class is in session again!"

"Selling sunflower seeds, peanuts, and bottled water in the front row!"

Zhang Li poured the ground white powder (calcium oxide) into another earthenware jar filled with water.

"Sizzle—"

A puff of white smoke rose up, and the water in the earthenware pot instantly boiled, releasing a large amount of heat.

He placed the scalding hot solution (calcium hydroxide, i.e., quicklime) aside and waited for it to cool naturally.

After doing all this, Zhang Li did not immediately begin purification.

Amidst the bewildered gazes of all the spectators, he picked up the last Shu Dragon Egg from the storage space.

He used the tip of his dagger to gently tap a small opening at the top of the eggshell.

Then, he separated some of the egg whites and poured them into a clean earthenware jar, while preserving the yolks intact inside the eggshells.

Preparations are complete.

Zhang Li clapped his hands in satisfaction.

Dragon Kingdom Command Center.

He Jiong was completely dumbfounded.

He turned to Professor Wang Zifei, the chemist beside him, his face full of confusion.

"Professor Wang, you just explained to us the chemical principle of purifying crude salt with quicklime."

"But...but what does this have to do with dinosaur eggs?"

"Is there some deeper meaning behind Zhang Li's successful separation of the egg white that we haven't considered?"

The comments section was also full of speculation.

"Perhaps Ritsujin simply wanted to make an egg drop soup?"

"The layout upstairs is too small! Li Shen never does anything useless! Trust me, his actions will absolutely amaze you again!"

"I bet a bag of spicy strips that this egg white will definitely be very useful!"

"I'll bet two bags!"

Professor Wang Zifei did not answer immediately.

He stared intently at the small jar of crystal-clear egg whites on the screen, lost in thought.

A few seconds later.

He slapped his thigh hard, his eyes flashing with disbelief, his lips trembling.

"Egg whites...are protein!"

"He...he wants to use protein salting-out and denaturation methods for deep purification!"

"What method?" He Jiong hurriedly asked.
