Chapter 3: Dinosaurs Are Dragons Too!
His current world is indeed the Type-Moon world.
The method and principle of generating fire through friction indeed do not apply here, and from further interactions with Jeanne d’Arc Alter in front of him, she does not believe she has come to a different world.
The most crucial point is, he tried asking the system, and then received a positive response.
Given this.
No matter what, there are two disasters that must be avoided at all costs for the time being.
The first, which might arrive in “a few turns,” causing the Cretaceous mass extinction and leading dinosaurs to exit the stage of history, is the meteoric extraterrestrial fungus “Mycelium.”
The second, the planetary spearmen arriving later in time and sweeping across the land.
Rather than taking the risk of betting on the possibility of developing civilization within a short time to resist, Adam believes he should find a way to ensure the survival and continuation of the Eden people, then spend some time prioritizing the transformation of the race’s nature.
He wants to try a coexistence route with the planet.
Even allowing the Eden people to become the “Ultimate ONE” of Earth as a whole.
But first, he must find a way to start.
The first issue to be addressed is how to survive in the Cretaceous period.
Using influence cards would be far more effective than his own amateurish efforts.
The question is, what exactly to do.
While he was pondering, he suddenly felt the ground vibrating, as if being struck by a continuous drumming.
The Eden people were trembling even more.
If it weren’t for Adam and Jeanne d’Arc Alter not moving, they would have probably scattered and fled already.

The cause of such panic was a bipedal giant beast, probably more than ten meters long, its muscular and powerful tail just now broke a large tree by swinging, while in contrast, its foreclaws seemed too delicate, but this did not prevent it from crushing prey with its sharp teeth.
Tyrannosaurus Rex.
One of the representative dinosaurs of the late Cretaceous period, also a frequent visitor in various science fiction movies.
Seeing this, Adam’s first reaction was excitement, even subconsciously wanting to ask his assistant to take a photo to send to the props and special effects departments.
This also shows he is not what one might call normal.
“I say, black-haired one, you wouldn’t stop me from burning this thing, would you?”
“Forget it, my name’s Adam. Wait a minute, it doesn’t seem to be here to hunt.”
Adam signaled Jeanne d’Arc Alter, who was eager to move, not to act.
He, who has an abnormal level of acceptance for extraordinary situations, noticed something off about this dinosaur.
Despite its almost sprint-like approach and visually intimidating appearance, it didn’t emit a roar to intimidate its enemies, nor did it come any closer but stayed at a safe distance, trying to observe Adam, or more precisely Jeanne d’Arc Alter, with its eyes on both sides of its elongated head.
If this is the Type-Moon world and the great person summoned by the system is truly a heroic spirit.
Then Jeanne d’Arc Alter’s inherent skills should include: Self-Modification (EX), Dream of the Shadow (A), and… Dragon Witch (EX).
The last ability mimics the legends related to various saints and dragons, thereby gaining the power to attract and command dragonkind.
So.

Dinosaurs are considered dragons?
Now that I think about it, the game does classify dinosaurs under dragons rather than beasts.
“Miss Jeanne, you are not my bad luck but indeed my greatest fortune so far.”
An excited Adam said so.
Unable to detect any deliberate flattery from him, Jeanne d’Arc Alter scratched her face, her gaze shifting somewhat, clearly a bit embarrassed.
“Well, you’re really pathetic. So, how do we deal with this big guy?”
She shifted the topic to the Tyrannosaurus Rex.
“Although I hadn’t thought of it before, I’ve now found the starting point for Eden people’s civilization. It’s not the use of fire, but taming dinosaurs!”
Adam couldn’t help but laugh as he waved his fist.
If he understands the mechanism of influence cards correctly, he will soon be able to transfer Jeanne d’Arc Alter’s skills to the Eden people.
In another sense.
Rather than establishing a relationship based on the destruction of nature and the symbolism of conquest through fire, starting by taming other living beings on the planet feels more like coexistence.
“Please try if you can command it, Miss Jeanne, for now, just have it… roll over?”
“Do you think you’re training a dog? Alright, lie down and roll over.”
As always, she first uttered words that seemed disdainful and rejecting, then Jeanne d’Arc Alter obediently executed Adam’s request.
Then, a very impactful scene unfolded.
The Tyrannosaurus Rex, originally a top predator in the food chain, actually fell to the ground with a thud, then tried rolling back and forth, tail flailing.
Many trees were broken in the process.
“It works, this will definitely work. If you don’t mind, I even want to hug you, Miss Jeanne.”
“If you dare touch me, I’ll set you on fire even if it gets me warned and stopped. That’s disgusting. And don’t add honorifics, it sounds weird, you can call me by my name.”

“Then, Jeanne. If you can control it, can it continue to be effective even when you leave or are far away?”
“Of course, no problem. Who do you think I am? I could even organize a whole army of flying dragons for an expedition and ensure they won’t escape my control.”
An EX-rated skill means it cannot be measured.
Clearly, for Jeanne d’Arc Alter, it’s immeasurable in terms of her formidable power.
Thinking about it, in the story of FGO, she could even control the legendary dragon Fafnir.
It’s only natural for her to achieve something of this level.
Then, the next step.
I just need to attract enough dinosaurs and let them interact with the Eden people so the latter gradually become familiar with how to deal with this species, and through several generations (of dinosaurs) of evolution, they can firmly gain the strongest beings of the current era as allies.
If they master this skill, then even if they can’t make fire, the Eden people could live unobstructed on the Cretaceous Era.
Adam began to put this into practice.
He selected long-lived large herbivorous dinosaurs as initial companions, and short-lived small carnivorous dinosaurs to lay eggs for evolution and tribal domestication.
Seemingly strengthened in body, his sense of the passage of time became dull.
In the blink of an eye, at least thousands of days and nights had passed.
“Influence Card: Walking with Dragons”
“You have reached the current limit of selectable cards, do you wish to end this turn?”
