Chapter 55: Shadow Crocodile
The area of Gem Lake is huge.
It took half a day for the white fish people to run across the ice at a constant speed, and the size of the gem lake can be seen.
Some of the creatures in such a large lake hide in the sea through the estuary when the cold wave comes, and a large part hides directly in the bottom of the lake.
At this time, the glacial lake completely thawed, and the creatures at the bottom of the lake ran out of the ground one by one.
Among them are murderous aquatic carnivores.
Jewel Lake has become dangerous.
When the Prophet Kai asked the Whitefish Man to cross the lake while the ice lake was not thawed, it was because he knew the danger of the thawed gem lake and reminded him of it.
In the early morning, the surface of the lake is sparkling, and the ice water in the lake is very cold.
As soon as I came to the lake, as soon as I came into contact with the clear water, Duoyan couldn't wait to rush into the lake.
The huge body of the multi-eyed entered the water and suddenly became flexible, and the eight tentacles slid and swam towards the lake, and the depth of the lake quickly submerged the multi-eyed body.
The white fishman shook his head and jumped into the lake with a scar.
The cold water of the lake penetrates into the body and mind of the white fish people through the nails, making the white fish people think clearly.
Although the underwater world is gradually becoming lively, it is still much more deserted than when the white fishman first saw it, and it will take some time for the vegetation in the lake to grow.
The water of the lake is very clear, and the white fish people can see a few sparse swimming fish, and a few schools of fish, and they don't know where they came from overnight.
It is the innate ability of the white fish people to move freely underwater, not to mention the scars around them, and with the help of water power after entering the lake, their agility is not inferior to that of the white fish people.
After entering the lake, Duoyan was very excited, swinging his body and wandering in the lake wantonly, from time to time he rolled up a few swimming fish and swallowed it into his mouth, it swam faster in the water than the white fish man, eight tentacles danced, each time it could swim out of the water for more than ten meters.
The deep lake has an inexplicable strong attraction to Multi-Eye, and Multi-Eye wants to explore the depths, but before leaving, it suddenly thinks of something, stops where it is, and then turns back and swims back to the White-Fish Man.
Multi-Eyes wrapped his tentacles around the white fish-man and rubbed it vigorously, "Huh" Multi-Eyes can make a beautiful sound underwater, this sound contains feelings for this white-skinned creature who has filled his hunger and fed himself for more than ten days.
One last glance at the White Fish Man, the multi-eyed tentacles let go of the White Fish Man and swam towards the depths of the Gem Lake.
Its massive body is extremely agile in the water, and the fish swimming along the way are frightened and scurrying around.
"Is this saying goodbye to me?" Looking at the body in the water, the white fish man was slightly stunned, and a feeling of loss rose inexplicably.
After a long time, Scar came to him, and the white fish came back to his senses.
Leave and leave, Multi-Eyes should have been stranded in the sand, and now that it is back in the lake, it is natural to leave, perhaps it is to find its own family.
Now that there is a tribe, more than twenty tribal fish-man warriors, the pet of Multi-Eyes is not so helpful to the white fish-people.
Gathering his emotions and taking his scar in hand, the Whitefishman began to patrol the semicircular lake circled on the edge of the sand, and the Whitefishman was not ready to go deeper into the deeper part of the Gem Lake for the time being.
The lake area of the semicircular territory pre-demarcated by the white fish people is twice the area of the sandy land, and it takes dozens of minutes to swim in a straight line from head to tail, and it takes more than two hours to complete a circle around the semicircle.
In a counterclockwise direction, the Whitefish Man and Scar began to explore.
In addition to the weak breath of swimming fish, shrimp and crabs, some plankton and other weak breaths, soon a fishy biological breath was sensed by the white fish people.
Gesturing to Scar, the two of them swam lightly in that direction.
On a smooth rock, a crocodile with a gray-black body and eyes the size of a duck's egg glowing yellow appeared in the eyes of the two whitefishmen.
The color of the crocodile's body is the same as the pitch black environment at the bottom of the lake.
If it weren't for the white fish man's whiskers sensing the crocodile first, he would have approached the two round objects emitting yellow light as curiously as those swimming fish, and then swallowed by the crocodile's suddenly open mouth.
The crocodile's mouth opened and closed so fast that the swimming fish didn't react at all.
"Let's call it a Shadow Crocodile. "The Whitefishman gave the creature a name.
The head and tail of the shadow crocodile lying on the rocks at the bottom of the lake are about six or seven meters long, the trunk is evenly muscular, the head is larger than the torso and is triangular, and the long tail is only a little smaller than the torso, and the force of wielding it is definitely not small.
The whole body of the shadow crocodile is covered with a natural armor that protrudes like a white fish man, and there seem to be fine serrations on it, and its defense ability is not weak.
The crocodile seemed to be lazy, perhaps because it had just emerged from the bottom of the lake and was still regaining its strength.
Except for opening and eating the swimming fish that was attracted by the glowing eyes, the Shadow Crocodile remained motionless on the rock for the few minutes that the Whitefish Man observed, only the large yellow eyes kept flashing, and it seemed that the Whitefish Man and Scar had not yet been found behind a pile of rubble.
Scar also showed curiosity mixed with cautious eyes when he saw this shadow crocodile, it seems that Scar, a creature like a shadow crocodile, has not been seen in the sea, and it should be a creature unique to the terrestrial freshwater lake.
Taking note of the shadow crocodile's breath and its location, the Whitefish Man did not disturb the first large aquatic carnivorous creature he found after the thaw of the frozen lake, and continued to patrol in a clockwise direction.
After swimming forward for dozens of minutes, soon after the breath of the shadow crocodile faded in the lake, another strong new creature breath mixed with fishy smell appeared.
This time, the white fishmen were more cautious, because after getting close to this creature, a strong smell of blood wafted from the nearby lake at the same time.
It is estimated that a fight between large creatures has just taken place nearby.
The Whitefishman descended with a scar and crawled close to the bottom of the lake, slowly approaching the target.
Tiny streaks of blood floated in the clear water.
It was already very close, and in the sense of the beard, it was not one creature, but two, in the lake water more than a hundred meters away.
Approaching more carefully, the white fish-man clinged to the bottom of the lake, and through the cracks in the rocks, he saw the face of the creature.
It was indeed two creatures, one ten meters long and more than three meters wide and silvery-white. One is seven or eight meters long, more than two meters wide and blue-white.
Both creatures have large heads, the largest part of the entire body, which gradually decreases from head to tail, like a cone.
The eyes on his head were so small that the Whitefishman barely saw them. The mouth is long and narrow, and there are a lot of sharp teeth inside.
