Chapter 780 Dinosaurus
The scene when a large number of thunder dragons walked was very shocking, even though Natsu and Wendy had already flown into the air, there was an illusion that the earth was trembling.
"These Brontosaurs are scared...... It must have something to do with the screaming just now. β
Natsu's psychic senses couldn't cover the bushes from which the sound came, but he could determine what was hidden there.
"We'll fly a little higher first."
Measuring the height of safety, she stopped around 50 meters.
The view here is very open, probably because the brontosaurus are at her feet, Wendy forgets for a moment that she is on a high place, and with good eyesight, she quickly discovers some new creatures.
The creature has a shield-like structure on its head, its limbs are thick and short, and the toes of its forelimbs resemble hooves.
The most striking thing is that they have a very striking horn on their noses, and two slightly shorter ones above their eyes; When running, these guys have their heads close to the ground, and they charge forward like rhinoceros, looking very imposing.
"Those are triceratops, and they are also being chased by some kind of enemy, and it seems that the other party is so strong that they have to flee."
Natsu carried Wendy and flew in the direction of the triceratops.
When she soared in the air, she was not afraid of dinosaurs on land, and now the sky was so clear that she could see far away, and there were no pterosaur-like creatures anywhere.
Even with her current strength, if she encountered a feathered snake pterodactyl (Aeolian pterosaur) while holding a person, that terrifying monster with a wingspan of 11-12 meters was enough to pose a threat to her; Keep in mind that even some of the younger Tyrannosaurus rex are a meal on the plate of this aerial predator.
(Note: A British author believes that this pterosaur flew only for ease of movement, and in fact hunted on the ground, but the exact way to do this is yet to be scientifically verified, and this book is just a fantasy story.) οΌ
"Speaking of Tyrannosaurus rex...... It and Triceratops should both be species that existed in the late Cretaceous, since nothing was found in the air, it can scare the Brontosaurus group and Triceratops like this, could it be that there are really Tyrannosaurus guys appearing? β
She looked forward to the front, expecting to see the enemy.
She has always had a strong interest in this kind of carnivorous dinosaur, which is known as the most powerful dinosaur on land, how powerful is the other party? Can you really bite off the necks of other dinosaurs like in the movies? In addition, can you beat the Tyrannosaurus Rex at your current level...... She was also a little curious.
To her disappointment, however, the things chasing the triceratops soon appeared, running and jumping across the plains; Pushing the herbivorous dinosaur forward like a flock of sheep, it was something that looked very similar to a velociraptor and was not the Tyrannosaurus rex she had imagined.
"Dinosaur ......"
She looked at the 2-3 meter tall stalkers, and even without the help of the system, the strong front paws and the sickle-like nails revealed the origin of the other party.
"Strangely, this dinosaur is indeed very lethal to humans, and can tear a profession without a shield in half with just its front paws; But against the triceratops and brontosaurus, they are not particularly powerful enemies, how can only a few of them chase them? β
She thought a little puzzled.
But when she got closer, she suddenly understood why.
- These dinosaurs have brilliant crystals on the top of their heads, all of which are mutated creatures fused with magic crystals, just like the velociraptor in the base in the middle of the lake!
The magic crystal of the new world can make creatures have strong abilities, and the killer weapon of the triceratops is the long horn on its head, which may not be able to pierce the defense of the magic crystal, and of course it can't win.
"These guys are so stupid, why don't you go back and fight them? Shiro has grown such a big chunk. β
Wendy's sensitivity to magic is not as good as Xia's, and when those magic crystals are not working, they are the slightly shiny bulges on the foreheads of some dinosaurs, so she doesn't notice the abnormality of this dinosaur.
"Shhh
The last triceratops found that it could not escape, so it immediately slowed down, and the soles of its feet rubbed strongly against the earth.
Then it changed direction, turned around and began to charge towards the dinosaurs, but one of them met it without fear, and then in a flash, opened its mouth and bit its horn from the side.
The maximum weight of the triceratops can exceed 15 tons, such a behemoth is like a tank when it collides, and the long horn is also an unusually strong bone spur, whether it is a thick tree trunk or a wall, it can be pierced, but it is stopped by the relatively thin clawed dinosaur.
The dinosaur stopped in front of the triceratops like a child, and dragged its hind limbs hard, pulling its massive body, which was half a head taller, out of the collision path and pulling it aside.
Then I heard "Click! With a loud bang, the long horn of the triceratops was actually bitten in two by the dinosaur!
"Hap!"
The dinosaur let out a strange cry, spit out half of the hard horn in its mouth, and the sickle-like claws slammed into the eyes of the triceratops, blinding its eyes, and the triceratops screamed and retreated, but the other two dinosaurs pounced on it from the side, tearing off its thick skin with their claws, and blood splattered for a while.
The bloodied triceratops felt death and began to resist with its last strength, but its broken horns and bone shield could not penetrate the protection of the magic crystal, at most it was only able to fight the opponent head-to-head, and the fallen dinosaur would immediately stand up unscathed and continue to bite it.
"Let's help them, they look so pathetic."
Wendy shook Natsu's body and pleaded:
"How can we watch such a cute animal being eaten? Those monsters that look like erect lizards are so hateful! It seems that these guys attacked us in the base. β
Her analogy is somewhat reluctant, but the dinosaur does look a bit like a lizard that walks on its hind legs, since it and the lizard evolved from the same ancestor (the protosaurus).
"Its eyes are blind, its horns are no longer growing, and it has effectively lost its ability to survive."
Xia shook his head and said:
"Even if we save it, it won't live long; Nature has its own laws, and we are outsiders to this land, so it is not suitable to interfere too much"
"Why are you so ruthless! It's very similar to what you used to be. β
Wendy patted her chest a little angrily, and patted it with a snapping sound:
"I don't care, I've taken a fancy to that dinosaur and I want it to be my pet! I'm blind and I can find a way to cure it......"
"Okay, okay, don't fight."
Xia dodged her hand, although it didn't hurt, but it was embarrassing to be slapped on her chest all the time:
"I'll just help you save it, but we still have business to do in a while, so I can only leave a mark on its body first, let it follow the other triceratops, and then come back to it when I have the chance."
"That's fine, hurry up and save it!"
Wendy hurriedly sent a magic missile downward, her level was not as high as those dinosaurs, and the missile did not play any role, but provoked hatred.
Dinosaurs were social animals, and when one was attacked, the others immediately looked up and looked around, and soon saw Wendy and Natsu.
However, they were on the ground, and no matter how strong their bounce power was, they couldn't touch the two people in the air, so they could only intimidate below with their teeth and claws, and let out a scream from time to time.
"Whoosh-"
Natsu thought about it and fell from mid-air with Wendy in her arms.
She wasn't going to use magic here, because that would be too big a target and might provoke enemies she shouldn't.
After landing lightly on the ground, she didn't let go of Wendy's body, but pulled out her long sword with one hand, and with a wave of her hand, a sword qi shot out, splitting the three closest dinosaurs away.
During this time, she has not let go of her cultivation, even if she doesn't use Valrhona's holy sword, her attack level has reached 22 at present, even if she can't break through the defense of the magic crystal, she can make these guys suffer.
After a series of "pop" sounds, the three clawed dinosaurs that had been chopped off fell to the ground, and although they quickly struggled to get up, there was a hint of fear in their eyes for this dwarf enemy.
"Get out of here!"
The blue light in Xia's eyes was sheng, which was a manifestation of the extreme operation of spiritual induction.
The sudden chaotic thoughts, and a terrifying mental coercion, made the dinosaur that had not yet been able to survive just now keep retreating.
They don't understand why they're afraid, but the magic crystal can only make them stronger, not make them smarter, only the instinct of the creatures keeps warning them: - stay away from that guy, or your life will be in danger!
"Why don't you kill them."
Wendy looked at the dinosaurs who fled into the desert with some complaint:
"Then they will definitely bully those cute dinosaur ......"
"I just had an idea out of the blue."
Natsu walked over to a lonely, shivering dinosaur, the prey she had deliberately left behind.
This dinosaur was the largest and more responsive to coercion, and seemed to be the leader of these dinosaurs.
What's especially important is that the crystal on this guy's forehead is smaller than other dinosaurs, indicating that it has been obtaining the crystal for a longer time and consumes more energy; Otherwise, as the strongest individual in the race, and a leader himself, how could he not grab a better magic crystal.
She didn't believe that these dinosaurs would know how to be humble and polite.
"Smack!"
Coming to the front and back of it, Xia unceremoniously reached out and patted it, smashing the magic crystal on its head.
The dinosaur let out a scream!
A feeling of weakness struck it, and it retreated back in a hurry, its two front paws clutching its empty forehead, not understanding why this magical thing had suddenly disappeared, and suddenly losing its long-standing strength, making it almost unstable on its feet for a moment.
"See this?"
Xia opened a pocket on his body that could isolate magic power, and his superpower was activated, and one of the magic crystals inside was suspended in the air.
βββοΌοΌβ
Seeing the large magic crystal hanging in front of him, the dinosaur's eyes suddenly turned red.
If it weren't for Xia Rang being extremely afraid, I am afraid that it would have jumped up and bitten it a long time ago, and then took this thing for itself.
This is a treasure that can prolong its life and greatly increase its combat effectiveness! And it's bigger than the one I got earlier!
Of course, dinosaurs don't know how to recognize the quality of magic power, but they will distinguish the quality of magic crystals from their size and energy strength, and this one, whether it is the size or the magic energy coming out of it, is much stronger than the one that was broken just now.
"Obey me, and I will give it to you."
Xia peeked at Wendy, who went down to treat the triceratops, and used her superpowers to communicate with the other party, expressing her meaning:
"Otherwise I'll give you @%Β₯Β₯%... amp; β
Then a vicious spiritual fluctuation was heard.
Sensing the threat from her, the dinosaur shrank back like a wronged critter, then looked up at the crystal again, as if it was struggling fiercely.
Finally, it slowly lowered its head, bent its hind limbs, and crouched in front of the human girl.
This was supposed to be an act of surrender, and the body that was originally three meters tall suddenly shrank by half, looking pitiful and cringe.
"Fortunately, this dinosaur is more intelligent than other species, otherwise it would be really difficult to get it."
Natsume achieved it, first imprinted his soul by subduing the monster, and then happily inlaid the magic crystal in the depression above its head.
I don't know how the magic crystal and the dinosaur docked, as soon as the two came into contact, they emitted powerful magic fluctuations, and an invisible transparent force field surrounded the body of the dinosaur, slowly merging with it into a whole.
"Whew-"
Two puffs of white smoke erupted from the nostrils of the dinosaur, and then it raised its head to the sky and let out a long roar, and its companions, who had fled far away, heard this cry and ran back hesitantly, but did not dare to approach, but looked at it from a distance.
"Hey!"
Natsu jumped onto the dinosaur's back, wrapped a rope around its neck, and carefully tied a few knots.
"Slowly move forwardβ"
Then he shook the rope and sent out his mental power to let the dinosaur under him move forward slowly, and came to Wendy and the injured triceratops with great dignity, sat on it and tapped the double ponytail girl with his finger.
"Ahhh
Wendy felt something poke at her behind her, and when she turned around, she suddenly saw a big hideous mouth, which made her scream in fright.
"Keep your mouth shut! Why is Zhang so big? Is it scary? β
Natsu slapped the dinosaur's head hard, and the latter obediently shut his mouth.
"You took it in?"
Wendy stroked her heart with her hand and gasped~ breathing, took two steps back with some fear, and looked up at the carnivorous dinosaur:
"You're going to ...... such an ugly guy too I really don't know what you're thinking. β
ββ¦β¦β
Xia turned his face to look at the silly triceratops, and then at the domineering dinosaur riding under him, and said in his heart, "Mine is much more pleasing to the eye, okay! What the hell is that stupid, fat dinosaur of yours looking good there?
But she was only thinking about this thought, and she didn't dare to say it directly.
"The targets of the brontosaurus group are too big to be attacked by carnivorous dinosaurs."
Xia wisely changed the subject:
"So I had a new idea, and we'll ride this guy on the road......"
Just as she finished saying this, a terrifying howl suddenly sounded in the jungle in the distance!
This kind of cry rings in the ears like thunder, even if it is far away, it can make people's cold hairs stand on end, and their hearts are shaken.
"Sio!"
The dinosaur let out a soft roar, as if sending a message to its owner.
"Is that your former chief?"
Natsu quickly understood what it meant.
At this time, the regrouped dinosaurs around them made a commotion, and they looked very uneasy.
Two of them looked at Natsu and the lush bushes, and gradually became disengaged from the group.
"Forget it, let's go."
Originally, Xia wanted to bring these dinosaurs under his command and get a mount for Di Liya and the others, but now it seems that he can only give up this tempting idea.
If it's an ordinary carnivorous dinosaur, that's fine...... If it was a giant monster like Tyrannosaurus and Spinosaurus, coupled with the powerful amplification of the magic crystal, she and Wendy might not be able to bargain.
"According to the rules of the food chain, those guys standing at the top must be much more powerful than dinosaurs and the like, and if you convert it to a level, it should be at least a high-level existence that exceeds 110."
"Now that Valrhona's holy sword is in the custody of Xue Qian, I'm afraid it will be difficult for the things in my hand to break through the defense, and the dagger of Godfall is too short...... It's a pity, but let's avoid it a little. β
Natsu took Wendy to him with some regret, and the two rode on the back of the dinosaur together, and then let the invisible triceratops follow him, and chased it towards the brontosaurus and triceratops.
The shouting in the trees in the distance stopped after a while.
The remaining dinosaurs looked at each other for a moment, and instead of choosing to leave with Natsu, they turned their heads and ran back in the direction they had just come from, disappearing into the sparse jungle.
"Where the hell did Xue Qian go?"
After converging with the Thunder Dragon Group, Xia worriedly thought:
"Could it be related to the words on that stone? Did she recall something? β
"But it's Gladyse who worries people the most...... With her level of concealment, she definitely can't die, but what if she gets hurt? There are no familiar herbs here, and it is difficult to find a suitable cave for spiders to hide in the plains...... She's not going to go deeper into this area, is she? β
Harnessing the somewhat bumpy dinosaur, she looked up into the distance, the plain seemed to have no bounds, and all the way to the distance was monotonous, and there were no higher mountains, nor basins and canyons to be seen; Only a few low hillsides and hills dot the land.
"Stop."
As it was walking, Natsu patted the dinosaur's neck and made it stop.
"What, what's the discovery?"
Wendy still hadn't turned back into a vampire girl, and looked at Natsu with blue eyes and asked:
"We didn't come out with much dry food, so if we wanted to go further, we had to start looking for food."
"The food is easy to find, isn't that just ......"
Natsu wanted to point to the herbivorous dinosaurs, but noticed that Wendy's gaze quickly changed direction:
"Look, isn't there some grass there? There should be some fruit and plant rhizomes or something, I'm going to look for it. β
After saying that, she immediately fled into the air, and ordered the dinosaur to carry Wendy forward with her mental power, while she flapped her bat wings and swept towards the green grass in the distance.
"Hey, there's a creek here."
When she got closer, she noticed a shining stream flowing in front of her, hidden in the lush grass, and the track of the water was completely invisible in the distance.
"But this lawn is only a small area, and there is no vegetation downstream of the stream, so why can't you see water?"
She rummaged through the haystacks, but found no berries or edible roots, and flew in the direction of the stream, where she saw a dark hole in the ground.
"It turns out that the stream has flowed into this hole, no wonder."
She smacked her lips and landed on the edge of the cave, poking her head out to look inside.
Because of the stream, a pool has formed in it, which looks very deep.
"Since there is no fruit, let's go down and see if there are any fish."
This hole is not large in diameter, and it is difficult to hide a powerful enemy with a large body like the emperor crocodile, and ordinary aquatic predators are not her opponents, so she is relieved to dive boldly.
As soon as I dived into the water, I felt that something was wrong:
"The water element contained in this waterhole is so active."
She dived down for a while, only to feel that the aura of the elements was getting thicker and thicker, and when it reached about seven or eight meters, it was almost to the point of surging flooding.
At this time, an undercurrent rushed to her body, pushing Xia out of the succubus state, and after she stabilized her body, a dark entrance suddenly appeared in front of her eyes. (To be continued.) )
