vs 218 Wise ape-man
However, when oxygen concentrations are high, organisms do not need to increase the volume of the respiratory system to provide more oxygen to the larger body size, so the limiting effect of the respiratory system on body size is reduced, allowing organisms to evolve to larger body sizes.

Humpback whales may be just small on the planet.
Chen Yan's guess was correct.
At noon on the next day, a huge turtle appeared on the surface of the sea not far from the beach, like a small island.
Chen Yan entered the hinterland of the island.
On the island, there are big trees all over the place.
Suddenly, Chen Yan heard the cry of an elephant, Chen Yan walked over, it was a group of elephants drinking water by the pond, the elephant's trunk stretched into the quagmire, the nose arched for a while, arched out a small puddle, the small puddle quickly filled with water, although the tip of the elephant's nose was U-shaped, the water in the small puddle fell at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The size of the elephant is only the size of a piglet, and the miniature size is the size of the fat insect that Chen Yan has seen in the jungle.
......
The fallen leaves have accumulated a humus layer on the ground, and the air is filled with the smell of decay, and the feet step on the fallen leaves, making a 'swish' sound.
Suddenly, Chen Yan's hair flickered, and his outstretched foot retracted, only to see that the fallen leaves in front of his feet were rolled up, and a huge millipede appeared in front of Chen Yan.
On this island, he is the prey, and there may be some behemoth's dim sum, Chen Yan has long been aware of this.
Chen Yan took out the ice crystal short sword from the bubble space, threw it hard, the ice crystal short sword pierced the thick shell of the millipede, and pierced into the skull of the millipede, the short sword went deep into the handle, and the millipede struggled violently for a while, turning into a corpse.
Chen Yan was about to walk over and retrieve the Ice Crystal Short Sword.
Suddenly, there was a bird's cry in the sky, and then, a gust of wind rushed towards Chen Yan, and before Chen Yan could react, a huge strange bird grabbed the corpse of the millipede underground with its claws and flew into the sky.
The Ice Crystal Shortsword was also stuck in the millipede's skull.
Chen Yan chased in the direction of the strange bird.
Suddenly, a figure crept out of the tree, stretched out his hands, grabbed the legs of the strange bird, the strange bird flapped its wings, and tried to fly high into the air, but it was in vain, the strange bird was pulled down from the treetops, and then a dozen spears pierced into the body of the strange bird, and the strange bird turned into a corpse on the ground.
Chen Yan happened to catch up nearby and saw this scene.
It is a dozen ape-men, more than 3 meters tall, very strong, and the arched muscles of the body are full of explosive power.
Watching them cooperate to hunt strange birds, you know that apes have a very high intelligence.
The ape-man at the head, the ape-man who bounced up from the treetops and grabbed the strange bird's leg, suddenly spotted the ice crystal dagger stuck in the carapace of the millipede, and tried to pull out the dagger.
The short sword was stuck in the hard carapace, and I thought I was going to pull out the short sword very hard, but I didn't expect that with a slight flick, the short sword was pulled out, almost causing the leader ape-man to fall to the ground with a butt.
The dagger was as thin as a cicada's wing, like crystal clear ice crystals.
The ape-man came to the front with a short sword, and suddenly found that the sword body of the short sword reflected a face, almost startled it, the ape-man pricked out his teeth, and the face on the sword body also pierced his teeth, the ape-man was angry, and the face reflected on the sword body was also angry,......, ape-man slid his hand lightly on the blade of the sword, and the hand was cut open, and the ape-man used the short sword to scratch a rock under his feet, only to hear a 'pounce', and the rock was like a tofu being cut,......。
As if a treasure had been found, the ape-man raised the ice crystal dagger and whined in his mouth, as did the other apes.
The leader of the ape-man happily took the ice crystal short sword in his hand and played non-stop, and suddenly, with a wave of his hand, the other dozen or so ape-men lifted the strange birds on the ground and left the jungle.
Chen Yan traced the past.
After about half an hour, the ape-man climbed up to a cave in the cliff.
Chen Yan also climbed the cliff and entered the cave.
In the cave, there is a huge space.
There are hundreds of apes living in the caves, led by an ape-man king.
The Ape King was not strong, but very old.
It sits high on a 'throne' covered with animal skins, holds a scepter studded with shining stones, and wears a flower crown on its head, and is treated with great respect for both strong and young apes.
On the wall of the cave, every few tens of meters, a torch was inserted, and in the center of the cave, a huge brazier was lit, and the fire burned brightly, illuminating the cave very brightly.
The ape-man has escaped the confines of the beast and is an intelligent life.
The strong that the beast believes in.
For example, in a group of wolves, the wolf king leads the wolves to hunt together, when the wolf king gradually grows old, there are young and strong wolves to challenge the wolf king, the wolf king defeats the challenger with rich combat experience, and expells the challenger from the wolf pack, or the challenger defeats the wolf king and becomes the new wolf king, and the new wolf king gains the following of other wolves, and the old wolf king leaves the wolf pack with a bloody wound and becomes a lone wolf until he dies alone.
This group of apes believes in wisdom and ancient survival experience more than in strength, a strong ape-man cannot lead a group to survive on an island infested with giant beasts, but an ape-man full of wisdom can lead a group to survive on an island infested with giant beasts.
At this time, the old ape-man sitting on the throne complimented the strong ape-man who had just returned.
The strong apeman hesitated for a moment, took out the ice crystal short sword from the animal skin pocket and presented it to the old ape-man, and after the old ape-man got the ice crystal short sword, he praised the strong ape-man again as if he had obtained a treasure, and said something that made the strong ape-man very excited.
......
At this time, Chen Yan had already sneaked into the cave through the shadows that could not be illuminated by the firelight, and in the corner of the cave, Chen Yan found a staircase leading to the bottom.
Chen Yan walked down the stairs to the back, and below the stairs was a prison where a large number of humans were imprisoned, these human clothes were in tatters, skinny, and their eyes were numb. His eyes were full of longing, and his hands stretched out of the prison desperately.
“kldfdfdfg.”
“gldjgomngkl.”
......
Chen Yan understands these languages, which are Atlantean and mean 'get us out'.
Chen Yan said in a somewhat rusty Atlantean dialect, "Calm down and don't let the guards above find out." ”
Immediately, the human being in the prison closed his mouth, and the prison suddenly fell silent, and countless pairs of eyes looked at Chen Yan.
"How many people are there in this place?" Chen Yan asked.
"My name is Alex, and there are 307 people locked up here." One said.
