Chapter 271: No One Is a Savior

In the face of this strange scene, Zero is completely blindfolded, with her barren knowledge of Warcraft, she can't understand the scene in front of her at all, these herbivorous Warcraft beasts are obviously bombed, and they have been besieged by the grassland fires, why do they all seem so excited, and even dance happily?

Could it be that the cannonball not only contained the physical attack brought by the explosion, but also the shock wave, as well as hallucinogenic substances or spells, which made these herbivores collectively hallucinate, so that this state of being like a drug addict appeared?

It doesn't seem to be!

Although Zero doesn't know much about low-level Warcraft, but more than two hundred years of career as a Wild Headless Horseman, she still has some understanding of Warcraft's emotions and mental state, with her observation, it is easy to see that these Warcraft are not taking drugs, their expressions are very natural, and their facial muscle groups are under the control of their own will.

What the hell is this going on?! Say that low-level demonic beasts are afraid of fire?!

Although he was a little crazy in his heart, while observing these herbivorous monsters, Zero was relieved to discover another fact - he seemed to be a little worried just now.

The plants on the grassland are very dense and should be very flammable, but due to the abundance of water resources, these plants are all verdant, green, tender and juicy, and the yellow, brittle dead grass is not visible in the field of vision. Due to the abundance of water vapor in their bodies, it is relatively difficult to burn, and these plants may have some flame resistance themselves, after an initial stage of intense burning, the fire decays at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in less than a few minutes, only sporadic sparks are left on the ground.

Looking down in mid-air, a rough calculation showed that the cannonball from the sea just now ignited the grassland within a radius of two or three hundred meters at best, far from reaching the level of a natural disaster, which made Zero breathe a sigh of relief and at the same time, he secretly regretted it in his heart-

The stunning beauty of the moment was gone, and the land where the shells had ravaged was scorched black, like an ugly scar on the grassland. The ground was covered with a thick layer of black ash, and when the wind blew, it drifted towards the sea level in the distance like a black sandstorm. In the fire, some plants were lucky to escape, but they were just surviving, they were the same as the plants on the edge of the fire, almost all the water in their bodies was drained, turned yellow and black, and they were no longer upright just now, and could only lie on the ground softly.

However, although Zero regretted it, those herbivorous demonic beasts did not regret it at all, on the contrary, they followed the fire step by step, waiting for the flames to slowly become smaller, and when the temperature in the whole fire was not so unbearable, those herbivorous demonic beasts spread their hooves and swarmed up, you pushed and squeezed, with crystal saliva hanging on the corners of their mouths, and pounced towards those charred yellow and blackened plants!

They couldn't even wait for the flames to be completely extinguished, so they leaned down, opened their mouths, and put the scorched and scorched dead grass into their mouths, and some of the grass even carried sporadic sparks, and their mouths were full of bubbles, screaming, and they refused to let go of their mouths, but chewed happily, as if they had eaten some peerless delicacy, and their faces were full of happiness!

"This ......!"

I didn't expect these herbivorous demonic beasts to be so crazy, the purpose was to eat this burnt grass! Zero's face was full of incredulity, and he asked Ling Mo with some dumbfoundedness: "This, are these herbivorous demonic beasts crazy, so crazy for a handful of dead grass? Is the energy contained in this grass abnormally abundant? Or can eating this kind of dead grass prompt them to evolve? Then again, don't they like green tender grass the most? Zero felt that his three views were impacted, and couldn't help but ask his father for the truth of the matter. ”

Ling Mo didn't directly answer Zero's question, but said with an inexplicable smile: "Why is it so crazy, can't you just grab a handful and taste it yourself?"

Zero was a little unsure, but hundreds of years of experimentation made her fearless to stuff anything into her mouth, in order to solve the doubt, she took two steps forward, leaned down, and casually pulled out two scorched yellow dead grass, and the wild boar on the side grunted dissatisfiedly, but Zero ignored it, and did not hesitate to stuff the grass into her mouth and chew it carefully.

Bitter.

It's bitter.

The first time I entered the mouth, Zero only had such a feeling, which was also a matter of course, after all, it was blackened withered grass, which was essentially no different from fried greens, and the taste was naturally not too much, and the unique burnt smell made Zero's entire mouth feel a little rustling, which was very uncomfortable. As you chew deeper, the bitterness gradually subsides, or the bitterness is gradually ignored, and another kind of sweetness slowly emerges.

The sweetness is very vague, you can't even eat it if you don't taste it carefully, and the sweetness is very inauthentic, mixed with the burnt bitterness, forming an indescribable strange taste, stimulating Zero's taste buds, she rolled her eyes and controlled her behavior with great perseverance, and Zero finally chewed the grass completely, stretched her neck, and tried to swallow it.

"It's so unpalatable...... Zero complained, then closed his eyes, carefully felt the energy contained in the grass, opened his eyes for a long time, and looked even more confused: "There is very little energy in this dead grass! It's not even as good as those green grasses, and there is no evolutionary information to analyze, what are these herbivorous monsters trying to do? Zero didn't get any valuable information, and even thought that Dad was just trying to trick me into eating grass!"

"No valuable information? is it impossible?" Ling Mo also grabbed a handful, chewed it twice and spit it out, and said to Zero, "Is it because you have been done too many biochemical tests that your tongue fails?

"It's delicious, but that weird smell can also be called sweet?" Zero replied, and suddenly reacted: "Dad, you won't tell me that these herbivores are crazy for such a sweet taste, right?......!"

"This is too cheap, too humble, isn't it?" Ling Mo took Zero's words, shrugged his shoulders, and said, "How complicated do you think it can be? For elephant grass or ferns with thick leaves, when the wildfire has been burned, they will not be completely burned out, but under the action of high temperature, the thin sugar content in the plant body will be converted into caramel, giving these unpalatable grasses a hint of sweetness. It's hard for you to eat, but there are so many herbivorous monsters that are willing to give their lives for the sake of this sweetness. To put it mildly, if you are not strong enough, you can't even eat this sweetness!"

β€œ......!”

This humble and even ridiculous explanation touched Zero's heartstrings at once, and her heart couldn't help but tremble! She slowly turned her head, and for the first time, seriously and wholeheartedly, she cast her eyes on these low-level creatures that she had neglected in the past!

In the meadows covered with smoke, all kinds of demonic beasts are trying to stuff their mouths, the bison brushes off its two front hooves, the bull head hangs, arches its mouth into the thick layer of black ash, and rolls the thick rhizomes of the pasture into its mouth, and as the chewing progresses, its eyes narrowed into a slit, as if it was sweet to the heart; the hippopotamus also changed its previous way of eating, chewing every mouthful of grass in its mouth repeatedly, squeezing out every trace of sweetness, and then reluctantly swallowing its stomach; the rhinoceros had a nose full of black ash, snorted, raised its head, and let out a low whimper in its throat, which should be protecting its food, warning those creatures who tried to approachThe gazelle relied on its dexterity to get into the territory of other herbivorous monsters, picked up a handful or two of dry grass and ran, and the posture of the dusty body made the monsters who had been stolen from the snacks furious.

Of course, not every one of these thieves is so lucky, not far away there is a gazelle because of poor technology, was bitten by the hippopotamus on the neck, weakly struggled a few times, then was angry hippopotamus shook off the neck, like a rag doll thrown on the ground, no sound; farther away, the rhinoceros mother with a small rhinoceros, cautiously approached a triceratops, trying to steal one or two from the other party to feed their children, but was chased by the triceratops everywhere to escape, in order to protect the child, the abdomen was also by the horns of the triceratops out of a long blood mark, this is not dead, the mouth let out a mournful cry, has been wandering around。

Looking at this scene of tragedy in the world, the source was nothing more than a handful of dry grass that was not even pig food, Zero felt like a fish in his throat, and Ling Mo's commentary sounded in time:

"Like humans, the younger the herbivore, the more sweet they are, and in addition to the taste factor, caramel is also easier for freshly weaned cubs to absorb, allowing them to thrive. During the most difficult months of the toddler stage, if you can eat a lot of sweets, the survival rate of the young animals will increase several times. In such a lush pasture, the little rhinoceros is still skinny and bone, indicating that there is something wrong with its digestive system, and judging from the frequent risk-taking actions of the mother rhinoceros, it clearly knows that if its child cannot eat sweets, it will die. ”

Hearing this, Zero grabbed a large handful of dead grass and was about to send it to the female rhinoceros, but was stopped by the Ragdoll Bear, who took the grass out of her hand, calmly stuffed it into her mouth and chewed it, and said vaguely: "Don't waste your efforts, can you save their mother and son once, and you can save them for a lifetime?" If you can't pass this level, it means that the little rhinoceros has no blessing to survive, after all, the survival rate of rhino cubs is only one-fifth, and it is not a big deal to die more. ”

"I don't know about any other rhinos, and I don't have a great desire to save them all, I just don't want them to die in front of me. Zero retorted, but was directly interrupted by the ragdoll bear, and the other party's voice actually carried a faint anger:

"Then have you ever thought that your foreign power has allowed the rhinoceros that should not have survived to survive, and it is very unfair to those demonic beasts that have been squeezed out of their living space and should not have died but have died? Do you think that the wilderness is your human society? For each of you human beings, resources are overflowing, and it doesn't matter how you save them. And the resources in the wilderness are limited, and everyone is doing their best to obtain resources, why do you want to erase the efforts of other creatures, just because the rhinoceros in front of you screams miserably?"

Looking at the excited expression of the ragdoll bear, Zero was a little speechless, she faintly felt that there was something wrong with the other party's words, but she didn't know how to refute it.

I really couldn't find a chance in the other monsters, I was rushed, expelled, driven farther and farther, and even driven away from the burning grassland, standing in the green grass, the female rhinoceros blinked her round little eyes, glanced around blankly, her eyes fell on her weak child, suddenly snorted, spread her hooves, and ran towards the most conspicuous bulge on the gentle slope!

After a few steps to climb the boulder, the female rhinoceros faces the sea, her horns raised high, and she strikes in the classic rhinoceros moon posture, opening her mouth and letting out a sharp roar!

The roar was not over, it was still jumping and tumbling on the stones, raising its front hooves and kicking, lying down and twisting its legs, making a series of eye-catching provocative movements, trying to attract the attention of the unknown being on the surface of the sea!

Soon, as it wished, above the sea level, a grand scream sounded again, and another cannonball fired from nowhere, accurately blasting towards the female rhinoceros on the boulder! The female rhinoceros was obviously prepared, and before the cannonball reached its body, it rolled down the boulder in a beautiful succession, rolled down the boulder, dodged the explosion of the cannonball, and was carried up by the shock wave and flew up in the air, and smashed heavily to the ground!

The familiar fire ignited again, the range of elephant grass ignited was larger than just now, the folds on the face of the female rhinoceros stretched slightly, and she was very pleased with this scene, and the little rhinoceros 'Mom' screamed, ran to her mother's side, and pressed against each other's bodies hard, trying to help her mother up. It's a pity that its mother's internal organs were shattered by the cannonball, and her eyes, ears, nose, mouth, pylorus, and gang were all bleeding, and it was impossible to stand up again, and she was destined to die in the fire she had caused.

The lens in her eye socket was completely shattered, and the she-rhinoceros twitched her nostrils to locate her baby with the scent, and then she mustered all the strength she had left, kicked the little rhinoceros away, kicked it away, and rolled out of the flames.

The wall of fire instantly separated the mother and son, and the baby rhinoceros screamed miserably outside, but its mother could no longer hear its call. The flames followed the bloodstains, gently licking her body, except for the first reflex-like twitching, the female rhinoceros did not move, and accepted her death so quietly.

When the fire subsided, the little rhinoceros near the water was the first to rush into the fire, calling his mother in a shrill voice, while twitching his nose and looking around, unfortunately, the rhinoceros has very poor eyesight, mainly relying on the sense of smell to distinguish things, and the smell of the mother that has been roasted, the little rhinoceros can no longer recognize.

It ran over and over the charred body of the female rhinoceros, but found nothing, and soon it was tired and lay on the ground gasping for breath. Other magical beasts in the distance also noticed this newly opened 'candy field' and broke in one after another. Seeing this scene, the little rhinoceros screamed twice in a hurry, struggled to get up from the ground, and frantically gnawed on the dead grass on the ground, trying to store enough sugar before the arrival of other strong monsters.

After chewing a few times, the sweet feeling bloomed in his mouth, slowly entering his heart, the little rhinoceros squinted his eyes slightly in enjoyment, and the question of 'where did mom go' was quickly put to the back of his mind.
