HUFF... HISS... HAAA...
「In the Dinosaur Era.」
After the special Thorns were eliminated, a Tyrannosaurus stumbled to its feet from within a huge thicket of bushes, sucking in a sharp breath.
"What the hell..."
Turning his head, Shen Fei gazed at the surrounding bushes, which had been flattened like a Sorghum Field. He couldn’t help but grimace, baring his massive Tyrannosaurus fangs. He looked down and saw a Triceratops and a Winged Dragon sprawled beneath him.
Shen Fei’s old face flushed red...
PFFT.
He quickly scrambled up from behind them. Just as Shen Fei steadied himself and was about to say something, the Winged Dragon that had been lying paralyzed on the ground suddenly struggled and flew off toward the distant water.
"I’m going to wash up too!" Xiaohong, in her Winged Dragon form, had fled in embarrassment.
Beside them, Number 0, who had become a Triceratops, also followed Xiaohong’s lead. She rolled to her feet and quickly charged toward the great river in the distance.
"Damn!" Watching Number 0 and Xiaohong’s hasty "escape," Shen Fei’s lower back ached again. The scene from just moments ago floated clearly in his mind, but he couldn’t let himself dwell on it.
I can’t believe it. To think that I, as a Tyrannosaurus, would actually do something like that under the effect of that special pink dandelion... And Xiaohong’s Winged Dragon form has wings, yet we still managed to... operate like that...
HISS...
Looking down at the unmentionable part of himself, Shen Fei grimaced again. He leaned against a large tree to quickly recover his stamina.
Over an hour had passed since he had obtained the large tree stump and the dandelion.
RUSTLE!
Just as he was about to assess his condition, Shen Fei suddenly heard the sound of vegetation being pushed aside nearby.
"Whoa! You’re Level 1000 too?"
Turning toward the sound, Shen Fei saw a large turtle with a ferocious-looking head and horns appear before him, its massive head held high. It was his pet, the Black Tortoise.
A little while ago, before Shen Fei had gotten the stump, the Black Tortoise had rushed toward the great river to hunt down the Level 999 Canglong. Now, Shen Fei’s "exercise" was over, and the Black Tortoise had successfully devoured the Canglong and just returned.
Shen Fei saw that the level displayed above the Black Tortoise’s head now showed Level 1000.
ROAR!
Hearing Shen Fei’s voice and noticing his gaze, the now Level 1000 Black Tortoise couldn’t help but tilt its head back and let out a furious roar.
"Well, this is interesting! You managed to keep your original appearance here in the Dinosaur Era! And before, when the Sea Race saw you, they immediately bowed down and acknowledged you as the Water God... You’re one special turtle!"
Shen Fei saw that after reaching Level 1000, the Black Tortoise’s appearance had reverted to how it looked when he had first acquired it. Its powerful shell even reflected a metallic sheen. Feeling some of his stamina return, Shen Fei curiously walked toward the Black Tortoise.

"Sister 0!"
While Shen Fei and the Black Tortoise were talking, a different scene unfolded more than ten kilometers away. In a bend of the great river, Xiaohong—in her nearly hundred-meter-long Winged Dragon form—was using her own wings to scrub her body. As she washed, she called out to Number 0, who was doing the same beside her.
The two of them had both pledged fealty to Shen Fei as their master, and they had felt a sense of closeness to each other even before this. Just now, although they were in dinosaur bodies, the physical sensations and coordination with Shen Fei had been intensely real, identical to what they would have felt in their original bodies. Now that the "battle" was over, they helped each other wash while looking to talk about other things.
Xiaohong had already concluded that Number 0 was more proactive and braver than she was; after all, Number 0 had even helped Shen Fei hold down her legs and wings. Knowing that Number 0 was also a year older, Xiaohong immediately addressed her as "sister." Whether she was truly submissive was another matter, but at the very least, she verbally acknowledged Number 0 with the respectful title.
"Mmm, Xiaohong," Number 0 replied with a quick nod, also washing herself.
They had both pledged themselves to Shen Fei, and because of their inherited game abilities and bloodlines, this so-called master was more than just a title. Number 0 knew a day like this was bound to come for her and Xiaohong. In fact, after deep introspection, she realized she had been greatly looking forward to it.
Even though this isn’t my real body, the sensations and feedback are completely real. If anything, this dinosaur body gave me a lot of cover and a different kind of stimulation. If it hadn’t been for this dinosaur body, I might not have been so "brave" before... not only being with Xiaohong, but more importantly... just now, I directly "helped" Shen Fei and gave him encouragement...
"Sister 0," Xiaohong’s tone suddenly changed after their exchange, revealing a shocking piece of information. "The timing I provided with that dandelion was perfect, wasn’t it? Brother Fei probably didn’t figure it out, right?"
"Yes! It went very smoothly!" Number 0’s eyes immediately curved into crescents as she answered. "He shouldn’t have been able to tell!"
It turned out that when Shen Fei had absorbed the Level 1000 great Thorns, the only thing left behind was actually the tree stump. The so-called aphrodisiac-like dandelion was something Xiaohong had secretly found and provided. Previously, when her own level had risen to 1000, Xiaohong had already discovered that Level 1000 creatures would leave something behind after they died.
