The remnants of everyone who witnessed the scene of the mutant crocodile's dying counterattack did not subside, even if the wolf had already replenished the gun and made sure that the crocodile was no longer moving, no one else dared to lean over to make sure.

Song Qingxiao sat on the ground for a while, and slowly stood up after surviving the pain of falling to the ground.

The eyes of the trialists were all looking at her faintly, and the more this time, the less she could show her weakness.

Her previous backpack was thrown out by her in a moment of danger, and was bitten by a mutated crocodile, and with a cold face, she held the dagger in her hand and walked straight to the few trialists closest to where she was sitting.

Song Qingxiao's gaze swirled around several people, and everyone who was targeted by her had a tense scalp.

When Song Qingxiao fought with the mutant crocodile, everyone still remembered it vividly, when the crocodile pretended to be dead, it was she who first discovered that something was wrong, which saved Professor Yan and the others from death.

This alone is not easy, after all, when ordinary people encounter a situation like that at that time, I am afraid that they have already been frightened and weakened, where can they have the courage to resist? Not to mention that in the end, when the crocodile went crazy, she didn't bury herself in the mouth of the beast, but she was able to hurt the crocodile and retreat.

Song Qingxiao didn't care what these people thought, she knew that Mr. Zhou was also staring at her vigilantly at this time.

She finally turned her gaze to Young Man Six, and the others breathed a sigh of relief.

No. 6 was seen by her, and suddenly felt like a great enemy.

Strange to say, her expression was calm, and her eyes were not fierce, but when she stared at her, No. 6 felt stunned in his heart, and forced him to ask:

"You...... What do you want? ”

She looked condescendingly at the backpack that young man number six was carrying, "Bag it for me." ”

Song Qingxiao was not discussing with him, but in a natural tone, as if the backpack on No. 6 belonged to hers.

When the young man No. 6 heard her words, his face turned pale.

In front of everyone, Song Qingxiao's actions were tantamount to robbery, and he didn't give him the slightest face at all.

He felt a sense of humiliation in his heart, and he was about to turn his face, but his eyes fell on the dagger she was holding in her hand, which was stained with blood and was slowly dripping down the blade.

This woman is extraordinary, and she is not easy to mess with.

When he was in the trial space that day, he looked away, treated her as a soft persimmon, and formed a grudge.

It was not appropriate to do it at this time, he had fought with Song Qingxiao, but he did not take advantage of her hands.

Once the two of them fight in public, the other trialists will only be optimistic, and even Seven will most likely fall into the trap and attack herself like he did when he attacked her before.

No. 6 endured and endured, and finally endured that evil breath.

When he was snatching the supplies before, he was fortunate to grab two copies, and at this time, No. 6 held back his anger, took off one of the backpacks, and threw it at Song Qingxiao with a cold face.

She caught it with one hand and kicked the worker sitting next to her:

"Get out of the way."

The person who was kicked by her did not dare to disobey, and the strong strength she showed before made the man unable to even have the courage to resist, so he hurriedly got up and vacated a place and let her sit down.

Mr. Zhou covered his mouth with one hand, and the corner of his eye kept paying attention to Song Qingxiao.

He naturally saw the scene of her snatching the No. 6 supplies, and he saw Song Qingxiao open his backpack and take out the mineral water, unscrew the bottle without hurry, pour out the water, and wash his hands and the blood on the dagger.

The water sources on the island may have been polluted, and such pure water is naturally a tyrannical thing to wash hands, but no one dares to say anything at this time.

Mr. Zhou's eyes were a little gloomy, and Song Qingxiao did not die under the sweep of the bullets just now, which made Mr. Zhou secretly feel pity.

A treacherous businessman like Mr. Zhou naturally knew that he should have completely offended Song Qingxiao when he had just ordered the shooting.

The more she behaved, the more it made Mr. Zhou restless.

"Mr. Zhou......"

Zhou Xueli called him, and Mr. Zhou reluctantly turned his head and motioned for Zhou Xueli to continue.

"Professor Yan, they have made a new discovery."

Zhou Xueli didn't seem to notice the gloomy owl that flashed in Mr. Zhou's eyes before, and pointed at Professor Yan and the others:

"I'd like to check again."

The previous work of extracting the mutant crocodile gene and recording its data was unexpectedly interrupted before it was completed.

Professor Yan and the others fell to the ground, their protective clothing had been contaminated with dried blood, and they looked quite embarrassed.

Because of the previous experience of a crocodile pretending to be dead and trying to kill someone, the group of scientists were very frightened, and if they wanted to observe again, they needed to be protected by an accompanying person.

In the hearts of this group of scholars, they naturally hoped that Song Qingxiao could accompany them again.

Not only is Song Qingxiao's sensitive reaction in the face of danger, but also her strong strength and saving demeanor, which are quite trustworthy.

It's a pity that Mr. Zhou's behavior of ordering the shooting obviously offended Song Qingxiao, and the possibility of her accompanying her again is very small.

Mr. Zhou finally ordered Wolf 1, Wolf 2 and a worker to go to confirm the crocodile's life or death, and the worker was crying and reluctant to go over, but he was forced by the muzzle of the gun to approach helplessly.

In his trembling voice, after confirming that the crocodile was really dead this time, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

By the time the scientists had finished their work, more than half an hour had passed.

At this time, the sky was already bright, and the expressions of Professor Yan and the others were both solemn and a little excited.

"Mr. Zhou, all the crocodile carcasses have been examined."

Professor Yan sat down next to Mr. Zhou and reported on the previous findings:

"Some of the material in the pond was extracted, and a crocodile that had not yet broken its shell was found in the broken eggshell."

Song Qingxiao sat on the ground, recovering his strength, while listening to Professor Yan distractedly:

"It has been collected and is ready to be tested at the old site of the institute."

He pushed the glasses on his face: "From what we know so far, the genetic variation of these crocodiles is characterized by thickened scales and large body size, but judging from their number and the fact that only one crocodile hatched from the crushed eggs, they have low fecundity. ”

In the absence of human interference on the island, and the fact that this area of water belongs to the territory of crocodiles, their scarcity may not be affected by natural predators, but should be one of the consequences of genetic modification.

"Of course, this is just a speculation, and the specific data needs to be analyzed to be sure."

As he said this, he stretched out his hand and pointed to the big crocodile that pretended to be dead and tried to sneak up on humans:

"But none of this matters, Mr. Zhou, that mutated crocodile is no longer the same as other crocodiles."

Professor Yan's words made Mr. Zhou stunned, and the others who listened intently looked at each other.

A female voice suddenly asked:

"What's the difference?"

This abrupt voice intervened into the conversation between Professor Yan and Mr. Zhou, and Mr. Zhou's eyes instinctively showed unhappiness, but after discovering that the person who spoke was Song Qingxiao, he quickly regained his calm.

"Bigger, you can't see it?"

No. 6 couldn't help but sneer, he was still thinking about the hatred of being humiliated by Song Qingxiao in public, and at this time, he seized the opportunity and involuntarily stabbed her.

When Professor Yan heard this, he frowned, and ignored No. 6, but looked at Song Qingxiao, and was happy to explain to the woman who had saved her life before:

"Miss Song, from the changes in teeth, bones, length, body shape, etc., I suspect that this crocodile has a tendency to return to his ancestors." There was a slight distress on his face, as if he was worried about how to use not so professional words to explain to Song Qingxiao, a layman:

"Do you know the monarch crocodile breed? I suspect that this crocodile already has the atavistic phenomenon of the long-extinct emperor crocodile in its genes, but it surpasses the existence of the emperor crocodile. ”

When he talked about his field of expertise, his eyes lit up, and several other scientists crouched beside him, also with excitement.

"Its body size is seven meters long, and judging by its age, it still has room to grow, and it already has a certain IQ, which may be brought about by genetic changes."

He babbled for a long time, and seeing that Song Qingxiao didn't make a sound, Professor Yan obviously knew that he was too excited, so he said a few more words, maybe Song Qingxiao was not interested in what he said.

Therefore, he quickly stopped the topic, his expression changed, and he said seriously:

"It's not rigorous enough to say that it's atavistic, and I prefer to use 'evolution' to express it." When he said this, he emphasized one more sentence:

"It's already evolving, Miss Song!"

Professor Yan's words were like lighting a string of firecrackers in the hearts of everyone, and those who didn't understand it were specious, vaguely feeling that the situation was not good, and those who understood were all greatly shocked in their hearts and found it difficult to calm down.

Especially Mr. Zhou, who belongs to the person who reacted the most, under the support of Zhou Xueli, his body shook heavily, and the whole person seemed to hear this, he was a little unstable, and leaned back, if it wasn't for Zhou Xueli's eyes and hands to pull him quickly, I am afraid that he would fall to the ground from the stone where he was sitting.

But although he finally sat down, the silver safe in his hand slammed to the ground with a 'clang' sound as he trembled.

Mr. Zhou didn't have time to calm down and gasp, so he instinctively went to check the silver safe, and his face showed nervousness.

Song Qingxiao looked at him with a look in his eyes, and couldn't help but speculate about the contents of his box.

He was so nervous about the box that he didn't leave an inch, and in order to avoid losing it, he even didn't hesitate to lock the box with his own hand.

In such a dangerous place as the island, it is obviously not wise to do this, Mr. Zhou is not a stupid person, the reason why he did this is nothing more than the importance of the box to him, and even to a certain extent, no less than his life.

The box was only lightly bumped, but he took it very seriously, and it was likely that the box contained fragile or spillable items.

Her eyelids drooped, she pressed the doubts in her heart, and put her mind on what Professor Yan said.

If things are really as Professor Yan said, the animals on the island have begun to evolve in a higher direction due to the influence of genes, which is a rather tricky trouble, because these crocodile groups can evolve, which means that other mutated creatures they encounter later can also evolve to a higher level.

It also means that their trip to the island may be more dangerous than everyone thinks.

She raised her head, and several other trialists also collided their gazes, all with worried expressions in their eyes.

"What is the reason for this?"

Song Qingxiao asked, and Professor Yan shook his head:

"It's not very clear at the moment. However, natural selection, among a bunch of defective products, there will always be one who stands out, and after the environment and all aspects of screening, becomes the ultimate victor and evolves to a higher level. ”

When he said this, Song Qingxiao vaguely felt that his words seemed to contain an important message, 'natural selection, stand out', in a certain aspect, it was somewhat similar to the meaning of the trial, and before she could firmly grasp that feeling, Professor Yan shrugged his shoulders with some regret and raised his arm:

"But it's not scientifically proven, and it's just a hypothesis."

Speaking of this, Song Qingxiao took his words to heart and nodded:

"Thank you for explaining."

"You're welcome."

Professor Yan smiled at her, he had a good impression of Song Qingxiao, the person who had saved his life, and he was willing to explain a few more words when she asked, and he was even willing to tell her unverified speculations.

This heart of return was also reminded by Song Qingxiao:

"You'd better clean up the blood stains on your body."

She pointed to the plasma on Professor Yan's body, which she had touched when she kicked him to the ground in order to save Professor Yan's life, and after a long time of work, he had already done it at this time, which also made Professor Yan's gentle appearance look a little embarrassed.

"Uh," Professor Yan followed the direction of her finger, touched her body, and then looked at her hands stained with blood and mud, only when Song Qing said this because she was clean and couldn't tolerate others being so dirty.

But it was also kind to think that she could remind her, so he nodded:

"Thank you."

After Song Qing finished saying this, he lifted his backpack and stood up:

"It's dawn, get out of here first."

When the others heard what she said, they were not very willing.

There are many crises on the island, and soon after they got on the island, they encountered a group of fierce crocodiles, and finally after so many people died, these crocodiles were eliminated, and a safe place was temporarily cleared for everyone, Song Qingxiao let everyone leave, and naturally everyone was dissatisfied.

"Leave? Didn't Professor Yan say that the animals on the island have evolved and become more ferocious because of some changes? Where else are we going? ”

Some people raised questions, and although many people did not speak out, they seemed to support the speaker's point of view.

"Indeed, you may encounter more ferocious mutated creatures later." Song Qingxiao looked at the person who spoke and laughed:

"But don't forget, the ruins of the research institute where you can call for help are not here."

She reminded everyone, and many people cursed when they heard this.

"Even if that's the case, you should be able to rest for a while, right?" Everyone thought of going to the research institute, and after encountering a school of mutant crocodiles, their confidence was greatly damaged for a while.

"There are dead people here, and there is such a big disturbance caused by the killing of crocodiles, and the smell of blood and sound may attract other animals to attack."

The longer you stay here, the more dangerous it may be.

After all, those who dare to go to the crocodile's nest when they hear the movement must be the high-level biological layer on the biological chain that dares to snatch food from the crocodile's mouth.

After being reminded by her, everyone figured this out, and suddenly shuddered, and the others didn't dare to complain at this time, so they hurriedly got up.

It wasn't until this moment that Professor Yan understood what she meant by reminding herself to clean up the blood stains on her body.

He fell and got blood, and the smell of blood on his body was very strong, and if he didn't clean it up, some animals might smell it later on the trip.

Thinking of this, several scientists hurriedly took water out to clean it, and finally sprayed some unknown things on their bodies, which should be odor-suppressing agents.
