National Survival: I Supported the Dragon Nation by Hunting Dinosaurs

The atmosphere in the live stream from the United States was playful and sarcastic.

Professor Smith pointed to Zhang Li on the screen, who was preparing to make a surgical move.

He spread his hands out exaggeratedly and made a regretful expression at the camera.

"It seems that this Chinese man has developed cognitive impairment."

Smith’s tone was full of superiority: “As an expert in the medical field, I feel it is necessary to give you all a brief explanation.”

The Quetzalcoatlus had a brain EQ of only 0.8 to 1.2, meaning its brain structure was extremely primitive and its location was well-hidden.

"Most fatally, in order to adapt to flight, their skulls have a hollow honeycomb structure, that is, air-filled bones."

This bone is as brittle as an eggshell! Drilling blindly without high-precision CT guidance?

"The brain, like the liver, can tolerate errors!"

Below the cliff, the wind howled.

Zhang Li stood beside the enormous dragon head. In the face of that behemoth, humanity seemed as insignificant as ants.

[The All-Seeing Eye] Activated

[Target: Quetzalcoatlus brain]

Bone layer thickness: 3.12mm (including air cavity structures)

[WARNING: The area 2mm below is the cerebellum, which is responsible for flight balance. Do not touch it!]

This is the source of Zhang Li's confidence to "operate blindly".

Li Yue stood by and handed over a sterilized scalpel.

Without the slightest hesitation, Zhang Li avoided the major subcutaneous blood vessels and made a three-centimeter-long incision above the foramen magnum of the pterosaur's occipital bone.

"Craniotomy device".

Li Yue found a miniature electric drill among the equipment that had been airdropped.

Zhang Lineng could clearly see that three millimeters below the drill bit was the fragile air cavity bone wall, and further down was that intricate mass of cerebellar tissue.

The slightest deviation could turn this reigning king of the skies into a useless bird.

"Sizzle—"

A grating sound of bones grinding together rang out.

The drill bit cuts in at an extremely subtle angle, navigating through the dense network of blood vessels.

Suddenly! Just as the drill bit was about to break through the inner bone plate.

The Quetzalcoatlus, which was originally in a state of anesthesia and coma, suddenly twitched its eyelids!

Its massive body convulsed instinctively, and terrifying power erupted from its neck!

"not good!"

Li Yue was so startled that she almost dropped the tray in her hands.

This is the biggest risk of performing surgery in the field—without anesthesia monitoring equipment, the efficacy of the medication cannot be precisely controlled!

The immense force was transmitted to the head, and if the drill in Zhang Li's hand were to deviate even by a millimeter, the surgery would be declared a failure!

"Increase the anesthetic dosage!"

Zhang Li immediately took command.

Leng Feng, who was already prepared, inserted the needle, and the Quetzalcoatlus returned to calm.

Zhang Li remained extremely calm throughout! This is a skill bestowed upon him by a master surgeon!

The combination of countless clinical surgical experiences in his mind and his all-knowing eye makes every incision extremely precise!

Drill through! Remove drill! Implant!

The probe of the micro-biochip penetrates instantly!

Everything is going so smoothly!

Zhang Li took the suture needle from Li Yue with practiced ease.

Until the very last stitch was sewn.

Zhang Licai closed his all-knowing eye; it was already dark by then.

The entire surgery lasted two hours...

A strong feeling of dizziness washed over him. His enhanced mental energy was now almost depleted.

He swayed slightly, only managing to stay upright by holding onto the pterosaur's neck.

Leng Feng reacted quickly and caught him.

Zhang Li waved his hand: "It's nothing, I'm just a little mentally exhausted."

At this moment.

In the studio across the ocean, Professor Smith stared wide-eyed at the slow-motion replay on the screen.

"This...this is impossible..."

"That angle of entry...that depth...how could he possibly have avoided the venous sinus? How did he know that was the nerve center?"

"Something's definitely wrong! He can't possibly control this pterosaur!"

Dragon Kingdom Camp, inside the cave.

Wang Qiang, who was in a coma, finally slowly opened his eyes.

What came into view was the dim yellow firelight and the pitch-black cave ceiling.

"water……"

The chapped lips twitched.

Huang Xiaoying, who had been watching over him, quickly fed him some warm water in a ceramic bowl.

"Brother Qiang, you're finally awake!"

Wang Qiang gradually regained consciousness.

He felt the severe abdominal pain lessen considerably, replaced by a tingling or itchy sensation.

He looked around, his brows furrowing instantly.

Where are they?

Huang Xiaoying forced a smile and said, "They... went to take care of some business."

"Running errands?" Wang Qiang struggled to get up. "Where did they go? Are they in trouble? I'll go meet them..."

This tough guy, upon waking up, didn't worry about his own injuries, but rather about the safety of his comrades.

Huang Xiaoying grabbed him and pressed him down.

"Brother Qiang! Lie down properly!"

"He's Zhang Li, we have to believe him."

Despite saying that, Huang Xiaoying was also feeling somewhat tormented.

……

Below the cliff.

"It's almost time." Zhang Li glanced at the sky. "The anesthetic has worn off."

The three quickly retreated, creating a distance of twenty meters.

Leng Feng reloaded the tranquilizer gun with a spare syringe and locked the muzzle firmly against the behemoth.

If things get out of control, this shot is the last resort.

"roar--!!!"

A roar with a metallic scraping sound suddenly exploded in the canyon!

The sleeping behemoth has awakened.

The enormous eyelids snapped open, and the vertical pupils contracted violently—the bewilderment of an apex predator upon awakening.

"boom!"

The Quetzalcoatlus struggled to its feet; its enormous wingspan, though bound, still stirred up a gust of wind.

Its murderous eyes instantly locked onto the three tiny creatures in front of it.

These are the bugs!

"Gah—"

A gurgling sound came from deep within its throat, and its two-meter-long, sharp beak was aimed at Zhang Li's chest.

The murderous aura was palpable, washing over us as if it were a tangible force.

Everyone in the live stream was on the edge of their seats.

"Oh no! Something's off about their eyes!"

"This doesn't look like it's being controlled; it looks like it's going to eat people!"

"Run, Li Shen! The surgery has failed!"

Facing this imminent fatal blow.

Zhang Li did not back down. He took out the simple black controller from his pocket.

Gently press your thumb on the red activation button.

"Sizzle—"

An invisible electrical command instantly impacted the Quetzalcoatl's kinetic layer through the chip.

That instant.

The once ferocious and powerful wind god pterosaur suddenly froze in mid-air.

The tyranny it saw quickly faded.

Instead, there is a kind of submission that originates from the depths of the nerves.

Then, a scene that shocked the world unfolded.

This prehistoric sky overlord has a wingspan of ten meters and is taller than a giraffe when standing.

Before those tiny human beings.

Its enormous head bowed deeply, its beak touching the earth, and it was even trembling slightly.

That was a gesture of submission.
