Chapter 98: Déjà vu
Each of the seven continents has its own unique intelligent life.
They all have their own civilizations, and they are constantly multiplying in the struggle with the environment.
The two continents on the planet that have not yet been explored, Guo Sen made a conclusion after a cursory look.
They don't have any intelligent life.
The reason for this is also because the two landmasses, the one in the south, are mostly located in the cold zone, while only the scattered and rugged coast and the nearby archipelago to the north are at the junction of the cold temperate zone.
Winters are long, harsh, with numerous glaciers and snow.
The entire continent is largely covered by coniferous forests and permafrost, with towering rugged mountains and low-lying plains making up the vast majority of the land area.
On the plains, lakes and swamps are everywhere, and the presence of life is unusually thin.
As for the northernmost part, it has been completely swallowed up by glaciers, and only a few extremely tall mountains remain on it, and the black mountains are very striking under the white snow-covered summits.
Guo Sen felt that in this cold and humid environment, there should be no high-level intelligent creatures.
After all, living in such a place is too harsh compared to other lands.
Guo Sen looked at the land in the extreme south.
The severe cold weather also makes the biological resources here extremely scarce.
Unlike broad-leaved forests, which are diverse, coniferous forests are not enough to support a large ecosystem.
This means that even if there is any intelligent life here, it will not be able to sustain the most basic energy intake.
Guo Sen's gaze quickly searched the land.
Between the snowy fields and the swamps and forests, he found quite a few herbivores and a few carnivores.
However, the biggest discovery was a familiar creature on the bank of a large rushing river.
It was a huge animal with an extremely slender neck and an aqua blue body.
They have lizard-like heads, about ten meters in length, and their limbs are short and stout, and what used to be limbs has evolved into something like an oar-like with webbed membranes on their fingertips.
The biggest feature is nothing more than the carapace with its pitted and uneven body, which makes them look like dinosaurs with their heads encased in a huge tortoise shell.
When Guo Sen saw them for the first time here, he immediately knew what they were.
Turtle Dragon.
It was a very cliché name he had given to these creatures when he first saw them many years ago.
As a dinosaur that still lives in the ocean, it is a miracle that these turtle dragons have not been eliminated by the increasingly harsh living environment.
Moreover, when Guo Sen threw a few turtle dragons from the tropical sea area to the extreme south on a whim, he never thought that they would survive and reproduce to this day.
Another thing that makes Guo Sen extremely satisfied is that these turtle dragons seem to be like fish in water where this kind of bird does not, and their size has become larger and larger, from about five meters seen before, to more than ten meters now.
Perhaps, this kind of extremely cold place is more suitable for them.
Guo Sen sighed as he watched as these turtle dragons continued to emerge from the river and gradually gathered more and more.
However, he was surprised to find that many of these guys, who had eaten seaweed in the seawater in his memory, were actually munching on strange-looking fish and bugs in the sea.
Hey, aren't you vegetarians, why are you changing your tastes?
Guo Sen was incomprehensible to this anomalous phenomenon.
He had the impression that herbivores were herbivores, and that they should not become carnivores, and even if they wanted to, the various digestive organs would not allow it.
Could it be that this turtle dragon is actually a deeply hidden omnivorous dinosaur?
Just like Fat Da, who usually sells cuteness and eats bamboo, is actually a beast that can also eat meat.
The turtle dragons gathered more and more, Guo Sen couldn't help but count in boredom, on the bank of the river, there were now nearly seventy or eighty of them.
Such a large size, combined with this number, makes it extremely difficult for them to be ignored even if they want to.
However, the party did not last long.
The turtle dragons sank their front and rear fins into the river, and then went downstream.
Guo Sen was a little surprised, weren't they soaked in the water like a submarine, why did they look so much like big ships now?
The speed of the turtle dragon group was not slow, and it did not take long for them to reach the mouth of this large river.
At the mouth of the sea, there is a vast and boundless delta area.
Located due north of the land, between the cold and temperate zones, the vegetation on the land has changed from sparse coniferous forests to dense broad-leaved forests, and is not covered by snow and ice.
In the early morning, animals of all sizes are active in the forest, revealing life everywhere.
The turtle dragons did not stop here, but continued to move forward, swimming into the ocean.
Guo Sen looked ahead, and several huge shadows loomed in the sea mist.
He raised his gaze to look down on the turtle dragons and the great shadows.
It's a small archipelago.
In the past, when he took a cursory view of this land in the extreme south, Guo Sen had also paid attention to these large and small archipelagos, which were tens of thousands of people, but he had not observed them as closely as he did now.
Today, the archipelago is almost covered in dense jungle, and some of the larger islands are home to numerous rivers that flow from the towering mountains to the ocean.
This seems to be somewhat similar to the land that we have seen before that is full of intelligent life.
Guo Sen's expectation of whether there would be intelligent life here, which had cooled down before, suddenly burned again.
Although it is close to the cold zone and there will be long winters, the ecology of the archipelago seems to be much better than that of the land just now.
In particular, the largest island is located in almost all the terrain that can be seen on habitable land.
The turtle dragons continued to reach the largest island, and after swimming for a while, they came to a stop in a bay with a large number of stones.
Guo Sen is a little strange, what are they doing here?
Looking around, the rocks are craggy, the water is clear and calm, and it is surprisingly deep.
Could it be that this is their real colony?
That's when it happened.
A cacophony suddenly sounded from the shore.
Guo Sen shifted his gaze away from the turtle dragon and looked at something that was enough to excite him!
It was a group of rugged primitive people dressed in animal skins and full of beards!
