Chapter 170: Hunting

"Go early and come back early. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info" Shen Ziyi said while arranging Chen Tianci's clothes. Chen Tianci shook Shen Ziyi's hand, kissed Shen Ziyi's forehead, and turned around to drill out of the waterless shield.

He floated in the seawater, shook his hand at Shen Ziyi in the waterless layer, turned around and left quickly. Hunting seals is easier said than done.

Chen Tianci compared the satellite map and found that his current location was the deep seabed somewhere in the Pacific Ocean. This is the range of bearded seals. But after the seal has mutated, it has become a higher predator.

Hundreds of years of recuperation have led to a rapid increase in seal populations. And because they have undergone mutations to produce a large number of higher-order individuals, the entire seal population has gained a lot of living space.

Life in the ocean, either feeding on seals or being hunted by seals, is an eternal law in nature. Survival of the fittest is an eternal law of nature.

For people like Chen Tianci, hunting seals is very dangerous. Because he now has neither a powerful warship nor the personal ability to confront the mutant seals head-on.

But the skin and flesh of the seal are extremely important to Chen Tianci. The skin of the seal can be used to make clothes for Shen Ziyi, and the meat of the seal can supplement the nutrients that Shen Ziyi urgently needs in his body. Their long-term use of marine fish such as swordfish does not guarantee that Shen Ziyi and the child in her belly will receive enough nutrients.

"But, fortunately, I'm not a reckless person." Chen Tianci smiled proudly and patted a package on his waist. This package contains the drowsiness powder he concocted.

This is a blend that was completed with the help of Shen Ziyi. With this powder, an adult seal can be left unconscious for more than forty-eight hours. This time will decrease in order with the level of the target, but Chen Tianci is very self-aware. He would never hunt a high-level mutant seal.

The second order was already a great test for him. He didn't want his child to be born without a father. "Let's catch a low-level one." Chen Tianci muttered and swam towards a group of Konoha plaice that were leisurely playing.

Flounder is one of the seals' favorite foods. Konoha flounder is produced in the western waters of the Pacific Ocean and was originally a major characteristic fish in the coastal waters of China. However, because of the war, the fish had to move a little farther to the central Pacific Ocean.

Chen Tianci did not know what kind of impact this species had on the change, but he knew that this fish was the best choice for him to bait the seals. He delicately caught a few of the largest konoha plaices, took out the drowsy powder sealed in the sugar pills, and stuffed them into the stomachs of the fish in turn.

He gathered the fish that had been drowsy powdered and got up and swam towards the seal nest. It was a hidden lair on an uninhabited island.

Although bearded seals are dotted on the island, their predators are always ready to attack them. Chen Tianci had just swam near the island when he saw a large group of killer whales hunting seals on the shore.

And there are many fierce seabirds hovering in the sky. What kind of species these seabirds are, Chen Tianci can't tell. He thought it looked like an Andean vulture. But he couldn't tell. Therefore, he did not dare to approach easily.

He found a hidden place and hid. This is a crack in the rock near the shore of the island, which is just enough to accommodate Chen Tianci's whole person to enter.

He cautiously lurked in the crevices of the rocks, watching the killer whales in the distance and the Andean vulture-like birds of prey in the sky. "I think it's like an Andean vulture," Chen muttered.

Now, he didn't dare to go out easily. The Andean vulture, also known as the South American condor, is a powerful bird of prey. Originally found in the Andes Mountains and the Pacific coast near western South America, they are the largest flying birds in the Western Hemisphere.

After the nuclear war that destroyed the world, their habitat began to change as the American continent shattered. Not only in the Western Hemisphere, but also in the Eastern Hemisphere, such large birds of prey are beginning to appear.

These birds of prey were originally scavengers, but for some unknown reason, they have mutated, and now their diets are no longer limited to the carcasses of dead animals.

And the main force of seal hunting, that large group of killer whales, is extremely fierce. Chen Tianci knew about this sea creature. They are highly social and very well organized when hunting.

Chen Tianci only glanced at it from a distance for a few moments, and then shrank into the crack in the rock. He didn't want to be discovered by the killer whale sentinels hiding in the shadows. If he is accidentally exposed and targeted by that group of killer whales, it will be difficult for him to escape.

The hunt along the coast continued for several hours, until dusk, when it finally ended. The well-fed killer whales slowly left the island, and the Andean vultures in the sky were so hungry that they could barely fly.

Chen Tianci slowly poked his head out, looking at one vulture after another, holding up their round bellies, slowly flying away, he let out a long breath, and began to lean out, checking the situation of the seal habitat.

After observing for a while, Chen Tianci found that although the seal habitat was attacked by killer whales and vultures, the damage was not very serious. Older seals and young seals, which have little chance of survival, are preyed upon by killer whales and vultures.

Stronger seals, on the other hand, grow through the battle and become stronger individuals. Chen Tianci even saw a killer whale cub lying quietly on the shore, surrounded by a group of adult seals, gnawing until its white bones were exposed.

Several injured Andean vultures were also killed by the swarming adult seals and used as food for the seals. The entire island did not fall into panic and chaos because of the previous killings, but made Chen Tianci feel a kind of order that can only exist in human society.

"These guys are going to be fine." Chen Tianci muttered and began to look for a target. Dead killer whales and Andean vultures were not something he could move.

Those were the gains of the seals in this battle, and Chen Tianci knew that if he wanted to move those few things, he was afraid that he would be exposed immediately. In order to be able to commit the crime in stealth, he abandoned the carcass of killer whales that had coveted him and instead set his sights on a few injured adult seals.

For such a group of more than 10,000 seals, one less seriously injured seal would not attract much attention. Chen Tianci almost subconsciously reached out and tapped his eye sockets, and muttered in his mouth: "Wuji, help me calculate the safe route." ”

As soon as these words were spoken, Chen Tianci was stunned. "Wuji? Who is Wuji? He thought about it for a long time, but he didn't think of anything.
