Drone footage captured the skull fossil in Liu Wei's hand.

The first impression given to the audience is that it is too big.

The barb-shaped teeth look very scary.

It is not difficult to guess that it may be the fossil of some kind of ancient creature.

The audience started discussing in the live broadcast room.

Liu Wei was unable to use his professional knowledge to explain the water monster problem to the villagers.

The old herdsman saw the embarrassment on Liu Wei's face. He walked up and asked, "Is everything you said true?"

Liu Wei nodded, "There is a high probability that there is still its body at the bottom of the lake, and it needs professional organizations to come and excavate it!"

The old man nodded, turned around and said, "Go to the town and report it!"

Only then did the villagers disperse from Liu Wei.

Liu Wei took off his diving equipment and sat on the grass, holding a huge skull fossil, facing the live camera, "Brothers, take a look, how do you feel?"

“This is the most perfect monitor lizard skull I have ever seen. When we were doing research on Komodo dragons, we mentioned that its skull was very brittle and its bite force was not strong, among other weaknesses.

Look at what I have on my hand. It looks very much like the skull structure of a crocodile, as well as its teeth. If the teeth of the Komodo dragon are compared to cutting machines, then it can only be described as a giant ripper. "

The audience stared at the skull fossil which is several times larger than the head of the Komodo dragon. It is not yet clear what kind of dragon it comes from?

But after listening to Liu Wei's talk, a sense of mystery arose spontaneously.

An image of a super predator comes to mind.

Liu Wei waited until the afternoon.

The town sent staff over.

He did not believe the "water monster" mentioned by the villagers. This rumor had been circulating in the village and even around the town for a long time. The official attitude was to treat it as a rumor.

In this regard, the town government also specifically consulted relevant agencies and was confirmed that the water monster does not exist.

But today, some villagers ran to the town to report the situation again, and this time they actually mentioned that a foreigner went into the water and caught the water monster.

The government immediately sent people over.

"There! Right there!"

"He, he is the young man who caught the water monster!"

The villagers pointed at Liu Wei to lead the way.

The staff member walked up to Liu Wei, who stood up and smiled to show courtesy.

"Where is the water monster?" the staff asked in surprise.

Liu Wei raised the skull fossil in his hand and said, "That's it!"

The staff stared repeatedly, then looked back at the villagers and scratched their heads, "Are you kidding me? The government has reminded me many times not to spread rumors again. Are you using a skeleton to fool me?"

The smile on Liu Wei's face stopped and he said to the staff: "The villagers didn't lie to you, they just didn't correctly understand the water monster they discovered before because of a lack of professional knowledge. I have already explained it to them.

However, there is indeed an Australian dragon at the bottom of the water, and it may be a complete skeleton!"

The staff member turned back and stared at Liu Wei, raised the corner of his mouth and smiled, "Since it is a corpse, it means it is dead. It is a good time to die. Don't spread rumors in the future!"

Liu Wei couldn't help but said: "I think you need to report to the Victoria state government, or directly report to the federal government, and invite professional institutions and experts to come over and start excavation work at the bottom of the lake!"

If Liu Wei hadn't been interested in the ancient monitor lizard fossils at the bottom of the lake, he wouldn't have even been interested in continuing the conversation after hearing what the staff just said. It was so amateurish!

The fossil of the ancient monitor lizard is like a kind of cultural relic.

The discovery of giant ape fossils in the Borneo rainforest directly alarmed the Malaysian Academy of Sciences, and subsequent reports caused an uproar internationally.

Liu Wei believes that if the ancient monitor lizard fossils at the bottom of the lake are discovered, it will definitely attract no less attention than the great ape fossils, especially in the scientific research on the ancient monitor lizards.

The staff became a little impatient after hearing Liu Wei's tone. He himself was a little angry about the rumors about "water monsters" circulating in the village. Now a foreigner was holding a skeleton in his hand and asked him to report it to the state government.

He thought it was ridiculous.

Not to mention the state government, after returning home, even when the town mayor asked, he didn't bother to answer.

It’s still those two words “rumor”!

The staff member smiled contemptuously: "You mean the skeleton on your hand can alert the federal government? Young man, don't you think you are kidding me?

Not to mention the lake, even in the desert, you can find skeletons everywhere!"

Liu Wei smiled and asked: "What if it involves national honor?"

Not only the staff were dumbfounded, but the villagers standing nearby also began to be puzzled. He went to the town to report because he listened to the old man. He thought the old man wanted him to invite people from the town to take a look and prove it. People in the village did not spread rumors.

But what Liu Wei mentioned was related to national honor.

His thinking suddenly short-circuited.

As a unique ancient creature in Australia, the ancient monitor lizard is of particular value to the study of giant marsupials on the Australian mainland during the Pleistocene.

What's more, the Australian people have always had a sense of pride in their hearts. Take the venomous snakes mentioned earlier. Local news reports in Australia will deliberately exaggerate the power of venomous snakes.

Just like pandas are a unique species in China, when you mention pandas, you will think of China, and when you mention poisons, you will think of Australia.

It is equivalent to a national symbol.

The ancient monitor lizard is fully qualified to become Australia's national symbol. The discussion and research on this creature has always attracted much more attention than the most famous koalas and kangaroos on the Australian continent.

Especially at the level of scientific research.

The staff sent by the town obviously did not expect such a deep level.

He confirmed to Liu Wei again: "Excuse me, what do you do?"

He couldn't understand how a foreigner could talk to him about national honors on Australian soil. How could he feel confident and superior?

"You should have asked this question in the first place!"

Liu Wei smiled slightly.

Take out your certificate from your backpack.

Hand it to him.

The staff took a look and became suspicious of Liu Wei's identity.

This suspicion was due to his first impression of the exchange with Liu Wei just now, and the rumors of water monsters that had been circulating in the village for a long time, which made him a little emotional.

"Regardless of the authenticity of your identity for the moment, you and I will go to the town together. Regarding the excavation work you mentioned, you will report directly to the mayor and see what his attitude is like? The main purpose of my coming to the village today is to investigate The thing about the clear water monster.

Well now, things are clear, there is no monster in the lake!"

He turned back to the villagers and said, "Don't spread rumors anymore!"

Liu Wei smiled and waved to the drone, "Brothers, I have something to do in town, so I'll stop broadcasting now!"

The audience began to worry about Liu Wei.

They witnessed the conversation between Liu Wei and the staff, and the staff was somewhat emotional both physically and verbally.

After turning off the live broadcast, Liu Wei told the wild camel to stay where he was and that he would be back soon.

Carrying the skull fossil of the ancient monitor lizard, he went directly to the town.

town government.

The staff made a detailed report on the water monster to the leader, and then put forward Liu Wei's suggestions.

Liu Wei was too lazy to continue wasting time with amateurs and asked the mayor directly, "Can you find the phone number of the Queensland Institute of Zoology?"
