Chapter 24: The Fight for Food
Fang Yun's body cautiously sneaked among the grass, stopping from time to time to check the smell around him and look up at the situation in the sky.
He had emerged from the thick bushes, which were now less tall trees with thicker canopies, more shrubs and grasses.
As the temperature begins to drop, he is about to face a particularly big problem, hibernation.
As a snake that didn't want to hibernate, Fang Yun felt that there was not much time left for him.
According to what he learned, snakes eat less at around 15 degrees Celsius, then migrate to wintering sites, and when the outside temperature drops below 10 degrees, they hibernat.
According to Fang Yun's guess, it should be in the late summer and early autumn seasons now, and in the near future, there will definitely be a significant drop in temperature.
After all, this is in the mountains.
So, before the temperature starts to plummet, you must be prepared accordingly.
Upgrade!
The only way to avoid hibernation now is to upgrade.
Of course, it is not that after Fang Yun's level increases, he will not be able to hibernate, but because after the upgrade, there will be points rewards, and through the rewarded points, the skill of "skin resistance" can be improved.
This skill has a total of three effects, one of which is cold resistance.
While Fang Yun was thinking about this, his eyes were also looking around, looking for prey.
Now he had only accumulated three hundred and twenty points of bioenergy, and he was still a long way from one thousand.
Suddenly, Fang Yun's gaze froze, and at this moment, another creature appeared in front of him.
"Targeted, hedgehog, mammalian, hedgehog, provides twenty bio-energy."
The creature that appeared in front of him was about twenty-five centimeters long, fat and short, with a pointed mouth and small eyes, covered with burrs, and it was a hedgehog.
Just as Fang Yun was staring at the hedgehog opposite, the hedgehog on the opposite side also spotted Fang Yun.
The hedgehog did not run away, but squatted on the spot and rolled its body into a ball, burrs all over its body outward, like steel needles exploding up.
Seeing this scene, Fang Yun had no choice but to dispel the idea of preying on this hedgehog and left.
If he bites down on the hedgehog, he can prick his mouth into a sieve.
After turning his head to leave, Fang Yun continued to wander forward.
Originally, he wondered if he could see a bigger prey such as a pheasant, but unfortunately, he did not see such animals.
But along the way, he saw a lot of frogs, these frogs were only the kind of frogs that were three or four centimeters in size, and all of them added up to only provide Fang Yun with thirty points of biological energy.
And now, Fang Yun's total bioenergy has reached three hundred and fifty points.
"Huh?"
Suddenly, Fang Yun's body was crawling, and a pair of eyes looked straight to his left, only to see that in that direction, a creature was squatting among the grass over there and gnawing on the grass roots.
"Targeted, hare, mammal, rabbitiformes, provides 100 bio energy."
As Fang Yun stared at the creature opposite, the voice of the system sounded in his head.
"It turned out to be a hare."
Fang Yun's heart suddenly burst out, and he couldn't help but feel excited, he was lucky today, he first met a pheasant, and now he met a hare.
This hare is about 40 centimeters long, very fat, and can provide 100 points of biological energy.
If he was able to catch this hare, his total bio-energy would reach four hundred and fifty points.
However, hares are not easy to catch.
This animal is particularly alert, very fast, and very agile, Fang Yun saw a video on the Internet before, it was two wolves chasing a hare.
As a result, the hare relied on his own sudden drift and movement to get rid of the pursuit of the two wolves.
Little by little, he approached the hare, and when Fang Yun came to the position of the hare, which was about a meter away, the hare that was gnawing on the grass roots stopped eating suddenly, and then stood up and looked up.
Swish!
After the hare turned its head, it suddenly fell on Fang Yun's body.
And when he saw this hare looking towards him, Fang Yun immediately secretly said no, and almost at this moment, he immediately launched an attack.
"Whoosh".
Fang Yun's speed was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, his snake head flew to the side of the hare, opening his mouth and biting the opponent's hind leg.
However, this hare kicked its leg violently, broke free of Fang Yun's mouth at once, and ran away into the distance, disappearing from Fang Yun's field of vision after a few seconds.
Looking at the direction in which the hare had fled, Fang Yun did not have any annoyance in his heart, but followed unhurriedly.
While crawling, the snake hyacinth swallows out from time to time, sensing the smell in the air.
After crawling out for four or five hundred meters, Fang Yun looked intently ahead.
I saw that in front of it, a hare fell to the ground, its chest rising and falling rapidly, it was the hare that had been bitten by Fang Yun before.
The moment he bit this hare before, he injected the venom into the flesh and blood of the other party through the fangs, and the hare ran so ferociously before, and it is estimated that the venom flowed all over its body at this moment.
Moreover, the venom injected into its body also emitted a chemical signal, informing Fang Yun of the location where this hare had fallen.
Fang Yun came to the hare's side, watched it die little by little, and finally opened his mouth wide, ready to swallow this hare into his belly.
But at this time, he paused slightly, and looked up at the opposite side.
I saw that opposite him, a snake swayed and crawled towards this side, this snake was the same length as Fang Yun, the back of the body was tan, and there were two black longitudinal lines running through the whole body on the back of the body.
Black snake.
It's a black snake.
Moreover, Fang Yun also felt that this black snake was the one he had seen when he had just come to the big pine tree and explored the territory around.
At that time, he was only one meter long, and because this black snake was bigger than him, he did not choose to prey on the other party.
Two days ago, he walked around the position of about two kilometers near the big pine tree, and did not encounter this black snake, but he did not expect to meet each other here.
And looking at the way this guy looks, is he trying to snatch the prey that he has captured with great difficulty?
Thinking of this, Fang Yun's eyes were fixed on the black snake opposite, and the snake letter in his mouth kept swallowing, releasing a warning signal.
As Fang Yun stared at the black snake opposite, the voice of the system also sounded in his mind.
"Targeted, black-snake, reptile, scaly, provides 80 bio-energy."
