Lu Ao and their fleet have been heading north.

It is already July weather, and the temperature should be getting higher day by day, but they have maintained a temperature of more than ten degrees Celsius because they have been heading north.

There was fog on the sea that day, and the sun had not yet come out. The sea fog was thick and the visibility was very low. Everyone dared not go on.

After communicating on the public channel, everyone decided to anchor at the original place and take a rest, and wait for the sun to come out.

When the weather is fine, Lu Ao likes to lie on the deck chair and bask in the sun. Now that it is foggy and there is no sun in the sky, Lu Ao is too lazy to go out. After breakfast, he takes a portable walkie-talkie and goes back to the room with Song Zhou inside.

Lu Ao was wearing a sportswear, with fair cheeks and delicate eyebrows, looking like a boy of sixteen or seventeen.

He fell on the bed, rolled to the middle of the big bed, patted the place beside him, "Come and lie down."

Song Zhou took advantage of the situation and sat down, patted his waist, "Have you been sleepy lately?"

Lu Ao raised his eyelids, "It's okay, there's nothing to play on the sea, and I feel sleepy every day just sitting there."

As Lu Ao said, he took out the itinerary map from the bedside table, "Is our next landing place to be De Leon Island?"

"Well, according to the current speed, it should take about three days to get to that island. We should be able to land on the island in the evening of the third day."

"There are still a few days, but it's okay." Lu Ao glanced at the voyage map again, "We will enter the Arctic Circle in a few days."

"If we were fast, we could reach the Arctic Circle today."

The Arctic Circle actually refers to the boundary between the northern frigid zone and the northern temperate zone. North latitude 34 degrees [-] minutes is the range of the Arctic Circle.

Most of the place here is the ocean, with relatively few humans and a lot of wild animals.

One of the purposes of Lu Ao's trip this time is to see wild animals in the Arctic Circle.

He saw the penguins in the Antarctic last year, and this year he wants to see the polar bears in the North Pole.

Lu Ao took out his pen, checked the punctuation points on the map again, sorted out the previous punctuation points, and took notes.

Since he traveled, he has been writing travel notes. The number of words is not many, and sometimes he only writes a few sentences, which is similar to a diary.

Ever since he knew that his life would be very long, Lu Ao has been used to writing notes, not necessarily every day, but sometimes he would make a note. If he recalls his current life in the future, he can use these events as anchors.

Song Zhou saw that he remembered seriously, and said, "Remember first, I'll go back to the regulatory agency to have a look."

"Now?" Lu Ao turned his head, sat up and looked at the sea outside the window, "The sun has come out, and the sea fog on the sea will soon dissipate."

"I'll be back in a while." Song Zhou leaned over and kissed him, with a gentle voice, "If I haven't come back yet and the fleet is about to set off again, you can meet the ship first."

Lu Ao put his hand on his wrist, "Then you come back early, I'm boring sailing alone."

There are too few people on the sea, except that they sometimes chat on the public channel, and there is no one to talk to for a day.

Lu Ao doesn't like chatting with strangers very much, and he doesn't talk much on public channels. If Song Zhou leaves, he will often feel drowsy when he sails alone.

After Songzhou returned to the supervisory agency, Lu Ao continued to record on the bed, recording and recording, so sleepy that he almost fell asleep.

At this moment, Lao Dai's voice sounded from the portable communicator beside him, "I see that the fog outside is almost gone, or are we going to go?"

Lu Ao looked up.

The fog outside has only become thinner, far from being dispersed.

The rest of the fleet obviously didn't want to stay here any longer. Hearing people say that, someone immediately responded, "I feel like we're about to break up too. We're starting to drive forward, spread out a bit, and drive a little slower. It shouldn't be a problem."

This statement received a positive response from everyone.

Lu Ao went to the wheelhouse and looked at the dashboard. The light spots representing other ships moved forward slowly.

He counted and waited for the last point to move forward before moving along with it.

Since the departure of the fleet, he has been particularly fond of sailing behind the fleet.

It is very convenient to catch up behind the fleet. If they drive fast in front of the fleet, the ships behind will be easily lost.

This time too, the other ships in the fleet all agreed that his ship was behind, so they drove forward one after another.

The sun rose higher and higher, casting a faint golden light on the sea fog.

The sea fog is getting thinner and tends to disperse, and their boat is gradually speeding up.

In Lu Ao's field of vision, he could see the trajectory of the ship hundreds of meters ahead, so he knew it well and drove more steadily.

When Song Zhou came back, he saw him sitting in the cab blankly, propping his chin with his hands in boredom.

"What are you thinking about?"

"I didn't think about anything, I was in a daze. What are you holding in your hand?"

As Lu Ao spoke, he looked at Songzhou's hand, which was holding the food box they used at home.

Song Zhou raised the food box in his hand, "Meat buns and soy milk, I'm tired of the breakfast on the boat, let's change it."

Lu Ao yawned, and switched the ship to autopilot mode, "I'll drive slowly and have breakfast first."

"Speak to them first."

"Alright, let them go first, and we will catch up later."

Lu Ao turned on the public channel and said in the public channel that they wanted to have breakfast and let the others go first.

Everyone in the fleet often went faster or slower for various reasons, and everyone got used to it, so they drove forward without asking any further questions.

Lu Ao adjusted the direction and let the boat float forward slowly, then he and Song Zhou walked to the restaurant with the food box.

Song Zhou went to pour juice for the two of them, and when he was standing in front of the window, he looked out, "It seems that the fog has almost dispersed."

"Really." Lu Ao probed his head and looked at a small shadow in the distance, "What is that black shadow over there? It looks like an island to me?"

"It's an island, it doesn't look that big."

Lu Ao was very curious about the island, so he didn't even bother to eat breakfast, so he hurried to the bridge and told other members of the fleet that they wanted to visit the island.

The other crew members of the fleet agreed and asked them to catch up later.

There are actually quite a lot of unnamed islands in the ocean, and they often see them when they sail.

Most of the small islands are bare, nothing to see, at most there are some fish, shrimp and shellfish, and the most indispensable thing in the sea is fish, shrimp and shellfish. They don't need to go to a certain small island to find fish, shrimp and shellfish.

After encountering this kind of small island several times, everyone is not interested in the small island at all, and they are too lazy to approach it. When approaching the small island, you must pay attention to whether it hits the rocks, and everyone is too lazy to bother.

It is easiest to bypass directly and far.

Song Zhou walked out of the restaurant and said to Lu Ao in the cab through the window: "Stop the autopilot first, so as not to hit the rocks later."

"It has already stopped." Lu Ao said, "I will anchor first, lest the boat will float by later."

He quickly lowered the anchor, walked out and said to Song Zhou who was waiting outside: "The depth of this place is average."

"Being close to the small island, the depth of the sea is generally not that deep. Have breakfast first, and then we will go down and have a look."

Lu Ao walked back to the restaurant side by side with him.

Today's buns come in three flavors—pork sauerkraut, beef and cabbage, and chicken with mushrooms. Lu Ao likes all three.

Song Zhou opened the bun, and the two ate slowly.

Halfway through eating, Lu Ao suddenly turned his head.

Song Zhou paused, "What's wrong?"

"I don't know why, but my heart jumped just now, and I felt something in that direction." Lu Ao stretched out his hand, pointing at the small island he just mentioned with his chopsticks.

Song Zhou concentrated on feeling it, and shook his head after a while, "I didn't feel it much."

"That should be fish."

Lu Ao's sensitivity to marine life was much higher than Song Zhou's, and among the marine life, most of the larger creatures were various fish, or marine mammals that looked like fish.

Thinking of this, Lu Ao felt a little itchy, "I don't know what it will be, let's finish eating and go take a look."

He felt that it must be a sea creature that he had never seen before. If he had seen it before, the feeling would not be so strong.

Song Zhou picked up a beef bun for him and said, "Don't worry, take your time, you can't run away."

"That's not necessarily true." Lu Ao took it and stuffed it into his mouth, his cheeks bulging, "If it's really a fish, maybe they will swim away later. Hey, let's not talk, I'll drive the boat over first."

Songzhou said: "Then eat another one."

"Okay, eat another one." Lu Ao opened his mouth and bit the bun on his chopsticks, his cheeks puffed up, "Then I'm going to sail."

Lu Ao ran to the wheelhouse, stowed the anchor, adjusted the direction, and drove the ship towards the island.

Song Zhou came over to watch with him, and when the boat got a little closer, Song Zhou said, "There is something lying on the rock."

"What? Could it be a seal?" Lu Ao casually picked up the telescope next to him and looked at it. "It's too far away, it's dark, a little fuzzy, and I can't see clearly."

"You don't need a telescope, just get closer."

Their eyesight is better than the average person with a telescope.

Lu Ao drove the boat a little closer as he said, and they soon discovered that it was indeed not a seal, it was far from a seal.

Song Zhou touched Lu Ao's shoulder to make him turn around, then pointed to the black creature lying on the rock and said, "See, it's a lizard."

When Lu Ao was first reborn, he had always resisted the dragon form. He hadn't looked in the mirror in the dragon form for a long time, so that he firmly believed that he was a lizard.

It was Song Zhou who told him later that he was a dragon and not a lizard.

Lu Ao's ears were a little red, as if he didn't hear this, he just looked at the creature in the distance.

As their boat got closer and closer, Lu Ao had already seen the specific appearance of the lizard lying on it.

Those lizards looked very strong, with thick limbs and tails, and their bodies were not slender, but rather flat and thick like a crocodile.

They are black all over, but there is a faint white on the forehead or between the brows.

Lu Ao searched in his mind for a long time, frowning, "Could it be a marine iguana?"

The marine iguana is a unique lizard that lives on Koro Island. Lu Ao has never heard of this kind of lizard in other places.

Song Zhou stared at the lizards, "Maybe, it might be a new species."

"It's really possible, let's go and have a look." Lu Ao frowned, "This should be the marine life I sensed earlier, I don't know why, but it feels kind?"

Lu Ao said that he felt strange. He is not a lizard, and it is impossible for these lizards to be of the same race as him. How could they feel friendly?

Are dragons and lizards close relatives?

Songzhou said: "Go to the island and have a look."

Lu Ao nodded and drove the boat slowly.

As the boat got closer to the island, they also found more and more marine iguanas.

Most of the marine iguanas lay motionless on the rocks basking in the sun. At first glance, they seemed to be asleep.

Lu Ao briefly reviewed the knowledge points about marine iguanas.

Marine iguanas are the only lizards that can live in the sea. They are cold-blooded animals. Raise body temperature.

It's a common thing for them to bask in the sun, and it's not surprising if they don't.

Lu Ao Benlong also likes to bask in the sun, which may be the reason why these marine iguanas are kind.

Lu Ao and their boat slowly approached the island.

The shallow water area around the island is quite large. They stopped tens of meters away from the island and walked up to the island.

The marine iguanas moved very slowly on the island. After finding the two, the lizards moved uneasily and slowly crawled forward.

Lu Ao saw them moving so slowly, and wanted to get a closer look.

Unexpectedly, before reaching them, the marine iguanas had already climbed to the edge of the rock. Before Lu Ao and Song Zhou approached, they kicked their hind legs and jumped directly into the sea.

Lu Ao used to walk slowly because he was afraid of disturbing them, but now they all jumped into the sea like dumplings, so Lu Ao didn't have to worry about it, just ran over and looked at it.

"Quick, they're going to run!" Lu Ao dragged Song Zhou to run over, just in time to see the marine iguana floating on the surface of the sea, flicking its thick hind legs and tail, pushing them forward quickly.

Only then did Lu Ao realize that their tails were thick and long, like fish, even better than fish.

The two stood on the reef and watched for a while.

Song Zhou asked: "Do you feel this group of marine iguanas?"

"Almost." Lu Ao said as he stood on the reef and felt it carefully, then turned his head and pointed, "Over there, I feel that there is something very kind over there, as if calling me."

Song Zhou followed his gaze, and there was already a beach over there.

This island is relatively large, and the beach is quite wide, at least six or seven meters long. Perhaps because of the inaccessibility of people, the marine iguanas laid eggs directly on the beach.

Song Zhou looked at the egg over there with a thoughtful expression.

Lu Ao didn't notice, he pulled Song Zhou over, "Huh? There are a lot of marine iguana eggs here? It looks quite big, are all marine iguana eggs this big?"

"almost."

The group of marine iguanas they encountered today were quite large.

Lu Ao thought about it suspiciously, and the largest one he met should be 1.5 meters long.

Is it not surprising that such a large marine iguana lays large eggs?

Lu Ao didn't want to disturb the breeding process of the marine iguanas, but it felt too weird to him here, and he always felt that something was calling him.

The pair walked on, past nests of marine iguana eggs without touching them.

At this time, a marine iguana noticed their movement, and immediately crawled over on all fours without thinking about running away.

Several marine iguanas also swayed outwards because they climbed too fast, like a car drifting.

It was the first time for Lu Ao to see such a fierce big lizard, especially these lizards were very long, even approaching the small crocodile, running like this, the visual effect was very shocking.

Song Zhou took a look and said, "These lizards are afraid that we will destroy their eggs, so they may want to appease them first."

"How do you appease me?"

Lu Ao was at a loss. He looked at the marine iguana in the distance, and then at the eggs nearby. What he usually does is sabotage. What's the matter with appeasement?

After thinking for a few seconds, Lu Ao hesitated, "Why don't I inject vitality into their eggs?"

"This may not work. Lizards mostly rely on instinct and cannot understand what you are doing." Song Zhou said, "As soon as we get close to the egg, they should be anxious."

"Then what should we do? We have no other means of appeasement."

This doesn't work, that doesn't work either, Lu Ao is quite embarrassed.

He elbowed Song Zhou who was next to him, "Don't be foolish, tell me quickly what to do with this."

"It's not difficult." Song Zhou said, "Releasing your breath is enough to deter and appease you."

"This?" Lu Ao showed hesitation on his face, "Am I going to change back to the dragon shape first?"

Since Lu Ao was reborn, he has never paid attention to his breath.

He has never paid attention to the behavior of animals in nature, so he really doesn't know how to do this.

"If not, it's the best way to experience it in its original form."

"I'll try it first." Lu Ao took off his shirt, planning to try it out, "There are too many lizard eggs here. I'm as big as a dragon. What if I step on them?"

"Just make it smaller."

This is another problem.

Lu Ao looked at him with innocent eyes.

Song Zhou also knew that he couldn't, so he said: "You change back to the dragon form first, and I will guide you later, just follow my energy and move."

"That's no problem. Let's step back one after another, a little farther away, otherwise I could easily crush these lizard eggs."

When Lu Ao was talking, he took a special look at the nearest marine iguana egg.

This nest of eggs is half-buried in the sand, and it is not exposed. It is natural, and it is obvious that it has never suffered from natural enemies and humans.

Lu Ao didn't want to hit these marine iguanas.

He pulled Song Zhou back a long way, and he took off the last piece of cloth on his body until he was sure that he would not crush the iguana's eggs anyway, and turned back into a dragon shape on the spot.

His dragon-shaped feet are 40 meters long. Looking at it with the eyes of ordinary humans, it is estimated that he is a monster image.

For this group of marine iguanas, Lu Ao's dragon form is much more friendly than his human form. When they saw his dragon form, the marine iguanas even took a few steps towards him, wanting to get close to him idea.

Lu Ao turned his huge dragon head, looking for Song Zhou's figure, "What's next?"

"Leave it to me, close your eyes."

"Closed."

Song Zhou put his palm on his forehead, and said, "Follow my energy flow and understand it carefully."

Lu Ao: "Oh."

Song Zhou reminded, "I've started."

Lu Ao hurriedly closed his eyes and focused his entire attention on his palm.

Song Zhou's palms were warm and pressed against Lu Ao's forehead, giving him a sense of presence.

Lu Ao was thinking about it in various ways, and suddenly a heat burst from Song Zhou's palm, directly entering Lu Ao's forehead and entering his body.

This feeling is very strange. The heat flow is very fast, starting directly from the forehead and rushing into Lu Ao's body.

At this moment, Lu Ao even felt that he was a long water pipe, and the heat from Song Zhou's palm was the water in the pipe.

Water flowed from his forehead to his body, soon soaking his limbs and bones.

Lu Ao felt like he was soaking in a hot spring.

And as this feeling became more and more obvious, his body slowly swelled and ached, but his body felt an obvious constriction.

This feeling is very strange, the tendons are swollen and painful, but there is something squeezing on the outer skin.

Lu Ao couldn't help opening his eyes, and soon found that he had shrunk at some point, and it was more than 01:30.

His entire dragon has shrunk directly from a length of more than 40 meters to more than 20 centimeters. His marks are everywhere on the beach, and his direct body has left marks on the beach.

Songzhou reminded in a low voice, "Don't look around, concentrate."

Lu Ao's heart trembled, and he quickly closed his eyes again.

Now that he knew what was going on, it was clearer when he closed his eyes.

He obviously felt that he was shrinking. This kind of shrinking was not difficult, and the difficulty was about the degree of shrinking shoulders and hooking insteps when a human being.

When he knows he can do it, instinct will do the rest.

Lu Ao has been shrinking, and this process lasted for a long time, at least he felt that it lasted for a long time.

He opened his eyes only when he felt that he had shrunk to the extreme and could no longer shrink.

Unexpectedly, when he opened his eyes, Songzhou's majestic and handsome face was in front of him, and it was so big that he looked like a god.

"Fuck?!!!"

Lu Ao was taken aback, and the whole dragon bounced to the side. Only then did he realize that it wasn't Song Zhou who had grown bigger, but himself who had shrunk too small.

He compared Songzhou's feet and found that he was at most 40 centimeters tall now!

His original body was more than 40 meters long.

The difference is too great, almost a hundred times the difference!

Lu Ao turned his head and glanced at his dragon body, which was as thick as chopsticks, and couldn't help it, "How could it shrink so small? Am I inflated?"

As soon as he said this, he realized that it was wrong.

How come the voice is also soft and thin, gentle and childish, a little childish?

Lu Ao: "..."

No, he has to change back quickly.

As soon as he thought about it, he wanted to change back quickly, only then did he realize tragically that he would not change.

After discovering this fact, his face turned green, "What's going on? Why is it like this?"

"Don't worry, it will be fine in a while." Song Zhou rubbed his head lightly with the pulp of his index finger, and couldn't help laughing, "You just need to experience the feeling of this length."

"Who wants to experience it?" Lu Ao was depressed, but spoke softly, "This is too awkward."

"It's good to get used to it." Song Zhou's index finger had already touched his back, and he spread his palms out, "Would you like to try it in my palm first?"

Lu Ao flicked his little tail, looked at his hand that was close at hand, weighed it for a few seconds, and finally crawled along his hand into his palm.

Songzhou's palms are not easy to climb, especially Lu Ao is too small.

He climbed a few steps, stopped to look at Song Zhou's palm, depressed, "I don't feel like I'm a dragon, I'm just like Monkey Sun now."

"How powerful is Monkey King?" Song Zhou lifted him up, rubbed his head with his fingertips with another hand, and changed the subject before he lost his temper, "Didn't you just say that you felt something calling you? Now look in which direction."

Lu Ao followed his words and looked around.

He is now held in mid-air by Song Zhou, but his field of vision has not changed much, probably because the height is not too high.

Feeling it carefully, Lu Ao pointed in the direction with his thin and soft dragon claws, "This way."

After pointing, he withdrew his claws and opened his five claws, feeling secretly depressed.

Not only is his dragon shape smaller now, but his claws are also soft, and he feels like he has returned to his childhood state.

It might not have been that bad when he was a child. When he was reborn, the dragon shape was not big, but he didn't have such a delicate and delicate feeling.

Song Zhou liked his dragon shape very much, and it was not satisfying to carry him around, so he simply put him on his shoulders.

Lu Ao's field of vision suddenly became wider. He stretched out his dragon claws to grab Song Zhou's clothes, looked around, and adjusted his direction again.

The direction he pointed was in the sea.

Song Zhou didn't doubt it, he just followed his instructions.

After walking a few steps, Lu Ao suddenly saw an unusual egg when he was about to go into the sea more than ten meters away.

That egg was covered in snow white, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is as white as jade, even more brilliance than jade.

This egg is too beautiful, not like the egg of some kind of creature, but like an exquisite work of art, with the power of demagogy.

Lu Ao felt that no intelligent creature would not love it when it first saw it.

Song Zhou saw it too, with surprise in his eyes.

Song Zhou said, "This is—"

Before he finished speaking, Lu Ao nodded, "I know."

"Huh?" Song Zhou took him off his shoulders and looked at him in the blink of an eye, "What?"

"That's the egg." Lu Ao took a deep breath, pointed to the jade-white egg in the distance, and said, "This is one of the goals of our trip - the dragon egg, isn't it?"
