Chapter 133: The Young Day Leopard
Humpback whale pong friends are probably in the migratory stage now, and in a few months, it is estimated that humpback whales in the whole world may learn this song [Star Sea]...
Don't look at them big, but for art appreciation, they are also very standard.
Dasha switched the Aegis air defense mode, and the water stains on the dress disappeared...
Take back the Fingerril Idol System and Serenity falls back to the deck.
Whales and dolphins are no longer in the way, so they are now very close to their destination.
Dasha is still madly hinting...
Suddenly!
'Bang!! ’
Listening to this loud noise, it must have been that the battleship hit an iceberg under the sea, and the bow of the ship was also slammed into a large ice floe...
As we get closer to land, the temperature drops dramatically, and we are now completely in the Arctic climate.
It's still some distance from land, but there are ice floes along the way, so it's probably okay to jump over it...
The four huge battleships disappeared out of thin air, Tranquility took the first step with the little maid in the sword, and the six shipwresses walked on the water, elegant and calm, without panic.
If you drive the boat on ice floes, it may cause a very loud noise.
The situation on the polar side is clearly not suitable for this.
Echo, resonance.
Even if nothing happens, it sounds a little scary, not to mention the possibility of seals nearby...
In short, sneak into the North Pole first...
Exhaled a soft breath of heat, put down the little maid, and looked quietly into the distance.
... A white landscape, except for the cold wind whistling, the sun is still bright, it can be said that it is just right to come here today.
It's just that... Normally, seals that stay on land are basking in the sun and don't move all the time, and the target seals on this trip are still white...
It's a little bit tricky.
"Stardust Nayali, Huang, Luan."
"Yes~"
The two girls in the sky flew away, and the two flight mothers released the reconnaissance plane.
Tranquility took two steps slightly, the black coat of the mysterious material was warm enough, and the shoes were replaced by snow boots.
'Crunch..'
There was a slightly sore tooth and scalp tingling sound.
The snow in the Arctic is thick, which is precipitated by perennial frost and snow...
Well... I've heard that if some creature is lying in the snow, seals will appear and snuggle up together to keep warm.
Many hunters also rely on this method to catch seals.
The seal is also very gentle, as long as it does not provoke it, it will not hurt.
It is only at the moment when a human raises a stick at it that it becomes aware of the danger.
However, they don't have a long memory, and as long as someone is lying within their perceptual range, they will still crawl over...
But it's instinct.
In this climate, there is no way to survive without helping each other.
Instinct prevailed over all reason and memory, and whenever it thought that creature needed warmth, it would crawl over and use the close fit between its bodies to make each other feel the temperature that could live.
Even in the north of Iceland, the fighting peoples, where tourists frequent, seals are not afraid of people, they just bask in the sun as usual.
If someone is willing to touch it, it will also be a little nervous and a little happy.
Of course, these refer to small seals, but older ones tend to stay away from standing humans.
"Ning Ning pro~~Here and here~Wow, it feels cute~"
Stardust waved his small hand at Tranquility in the sky not far away, and it seemed that it should be...
"Admiral, I think you should bring some greeting gifts when we meet for the first time."
Haruna smiled softly, and Serenity nodded slightly.
"Makes sense."
“fishing~! Admiral~"
Dasha was still full of energy and shouted English with a strange accent, and she pulled out a fishing net...
"Eh, stay away from here and catch fish."
"Yes, Admiral~Please wait a while~"
Walk in the direction where the seal was found, with the little maid following closely behind.
Until they found Stardust and Neyali watching a small white seal, and the four shipwives also happened to return.
Dasha is holding a three-meter-long tuna, smiling brightly, and Phoenix's eyes are shining again...
The other three are all relatively normal small fish carrying a net.
Tranquility was momentarily speechless.
However, in the perception, the mood of the four ship girls is now on a higher level, and it seems that catching fish is a thing that they like very much.
Think about how you feel when you catch a fish, and you should understand it.
Not far from the ice, there seemed to be adult seals in every direction, and they raised their heads slightly to look at the side, and then continued to catch fish.
Standing up and jumping up and smashing on the ice, it was suddenly an ice cave, and it burrowed headlong into it, and it didn't know where to go.
The real leopard jumps like thunder
The little white seal was watched, and at first it looked a little restless, but Tranquility fed it a small fish, and it lay on its stomach on the snow and made a cute cry.
"Woo woo woo ~ hungry ~"
It's like a nasal resonance, and it's a little crisp.
"Wow~ so cute!"
When I found it just now, its head and body were covered with snowflakes, and it looked like a leopard had weathered.
But in fact, there is no problem, even this small little seal is not afraid of this level of cold, but because the fluff has not faded, it is not yet able to go into the water to catch fish, and temporarily rely on the food given by its mother to survive.
The lactation period is three months, and this one should be almost over the lactation period, and when the fluff turns into fur, he can go into the water.
Generally, after eating good food, it lies on the snow and is exposed to the leopard, which can keep it warm and save energy.
A smell of leopard waste squatting at home...
Tranquility touched his chin, and now he felt that the seal was indeed super cute, and a little like himself.
"Uh-huh-woo-woo~"
It's like a baby's voice, but it's more neutral, and it feels like a leopard in a leopard.
This little seal has snow-white fluff all over its body, large black eyes, and slightly fluttering leopard lips, and it looks like it has clear eyebrows.
The two little hands swing slightly, and let their round figure twist forward, which is super cute.
Serenity thinks it's time to start raiding the seals...
According to the analysis, seals in Greenland are not often seen, but almost all of the people they do see are poachers, those fierce people.
It's not easy to gain the trust of the seals here.
If it is a seal that often sees people, touching it to feed the fish can get its superficial trust, that is, to let people touch their little belly.
But the seal here is different, and it probably needs to really convince it that it is friendly in order to touch its little belly.
"Hmph, can't you help it? That's the only way to go. ”
Cultivating feelings is not something that happens overnight, and Tranquility is not going to rush it, so this time she should travel with girls.
After the Luan full class, the combat range can reach half the world, and when it is filled with carrier-based aircraft in the future, hundreds of paper planes can probably patrol here.
She might need to eat more, though...
Now should be the first step in getting along with seals.
Let it think of itself as a little friend in need.
Thereupon.
Tranquility lay on the snow...
It was a little cool, but it was snowflakes coming in from the wrists of the neck.
The girls were stunned for a moment, and then they also lay on the ground.
The little seal was stunned for a moment, and stopped calling.
Then it twisted its chubby body and pressed it to Tranquility's side before continuing to scream softly.
The little maid lies on the snow and mysteriously slices, sterilizes and makes sashimi of tuna.
Put the fillet on a plate and hand it to the phoenix next to her, who had been staring at her for a long time...
Everyone was lying on their stomachs around the baby seals, and the leopards were in a ball.
After feeding the seal fish, then take a bite of the sashimi fed by the little maid...
Eh, it feels okay.
Wear gloves and help the baby seal clean up the snowflakes on its body, not touch it directly with your hands, that will melt the snow into water, and the baby seal is already basking in the sun, and it is definitely not okay to get wet.
... But after cleaning up, suddenly a lot of hands reached out to the baby seals.
These hands are slender and white, like jade and onions, and there is no doubt that they belong to girls.
"Cute as the Admiral de-su ~"
"What a kind child~"
Dasha and Haruna couldn't help but sigh.
The other girls didn't speak, so they touched hard.
The baby seal is very warm to the touch, and the seemingly thin fluff is actually very thick.
Under the thick fur is a thicker layer of fat, which usually does not move, and then stores up the energy of the food to survive the toughest winters.
If this little guy is Snow Fat Yuan, then the groundhog should be Earth Fat Yuan, and they are all cute-looking natural creatures.
But this little seal feeds it small fish and it eats it, and it doesn't eat it until it reaches its mouth.
This is very individual, it seems that there is no desire, and it is at peace with what happens, and Tranquility appreciates such children very much.
Probably this is a baby seal, if it is a big seal, they must be willing to eat more, because they know that survival is not easy.
Only by preparing well can you live.
......
I lay like this for a few hours, and it was already afternoon when Tranquility came here, and it should have been night according to the time, but now the sun was still shining on the northern hemisphere, and the sky was still bright.
But it's also mid-September, and soon the Arctic will end its polar day and enter the dark night of half a year...
That's how nature goes on and on...
Today is probably the first and last time I've been with seals in recent days.
At the time of the polar night, tranquility is not sure if seals can be found.
Through the contact with Sanmier, ask her to send a text message to Flowey, saying that she is in the North Pole.
Now is also the time for the seals to rest, and they have their own way of judging the time.
In the ice caves in all directions, and on the other side of the coast, dozens of white adult female seals probe, each with a fish in their mouths.
They decide to rest only when they have had enough to eat in the water, during which time they need to come ashore several times to feed the baby seals.
However, when they found their children with a group of people lying on the ground, they were also stunned.
Need help?
Holding a fish in his mouth, twisting his round body, and fluttering his two small hands and big tail, he came to a snow leopard walk.
Seals from all directions suddenly gathered around, and the sound of squeaking and rattling was incessant.
Although the sound was a little numb, the quiet heart felt a little warm.
However, as soon as he looked up, he saw a leopard chrysanthemum.
Speechless for a while, he put his head on the body of the little seal, looking at the bright North Star above the transparent sky, the summer triangle...
But when it comes to summer zodiac signs, the most famous should be the Cowherd and Vega...
Tranquility and girls, asleep.
Only paper airplanes with faint blue flames still hovering in the sky.
It's cold in the polar regions, but the creatures here never feel cold.
Although the seals that live here will be threatened by natural predators and other aspects, it is a story of leopard hatred.
And these are the natural rhythms of this snowfield, which is a very normal thing.
But there are always poachers who take risks...
The Arctic is not a place where anyone can come, and poachers come here at risk.
But the seal is so cute, why should it be harmed?
There is no buying and selling, there is no killing.
May the seals live like this naturally.
Like humans...
Grow, learn, forage, multiply...
100 years, 1000 years, 10,000 years, forever...
