Approaching Science: You Call a Thirty-Meter Dragon a Loach?

Qi Yuan took over a rumor-busting show on the verge of cancellation, Science Detective, and unexpectedly awakened the “Mythic Arrival” System.

By collecting viewers’ emotional energy, he could transform into all kinds of mythical beasts.

And so, a thirty-meter-long flood-dragon stirred up trouble beneath the Yellow River, while a mighty white tiger strode across the summit of Changbai Mountain and shattered the void!

The whole world was shaken, and the internet erupted. Countless powerful figures cried out, “Spiritual qi revival! The myths have arrived!”

Yet on the show, Qi Yuan calmly pointed at the roaring flood-dragon on the screen and insisted on giving a scientific explanation:

“Everyone, believe in science. This is just a giant loach with a genetic mutation, combined with ball lightning and a mirage. It’s a perfectly normal natural phenomenon.”

Viewers across the internet instantly lost it:

“I watched it smash an aircraft carrier with its tail. You call that an oversized loach?!”

“Yesterday, the white tiger smashed a mountaintop with one paw, and you’re telling me it was light refraction?!”

“Shut up! Please stop explaining things scientifically. You’re shattering the Daoist hearts of all of us who cultivate immortality!”

Faced with furious netizens threatening to hunt him down across the internet and the world’s top supernatural organizations in total disarray, Qi Yuan smiled faintly:

“Don’t believe rumors or spread them. We must believe in science.”
