Chapter 2 Devouring Heaven and Earth Wild Beasts
Advancing in the wilderness has never been easy at first sight, and after walking less than five kilometers, Mo Wen and his party encountered two giant dinosaurs that were more than ten meters high, but fortunately, the two big guys did not have any desire to attack them, and Mo Wen did not want to cause more trouble.
But in this world, the enemy is not only dinosaurs. All sorts of strange prehistoric creatures harass them all the time, especially the gigantic insects. Although these guys are not very strong, they rely on their huge bodies and the protective color of their bodies to cause them a lot of trouble - the little black god was scratched on the arm by a 'big dragonfly' that came out of nowhere with a wingspan of nearly one meter.
After stumbling for three hours, Mo asked them to finally face the biggest problem of survival and this life:
Food.
"Hey, I'm a little hungry." The little devil held his stomach with his hands: "What are we going to eat at noon today?" β
"Barbecue." Mo Wen replied as he cleaned his feet.
"But is the meat here edible?" Recalling the big beetle that was cut into pieces by Mo Wen's sword during the journey, and the yellow-green juice splashed everywhere, Lias couldn't help but turn blue: "There shouldn't be any parasites in it." β
ββ¦β¦ I can't say for sure. "Don't ask for a stagnant body." But if we don't eat roast dragon meat, then what do we eat? If you want to gnaw on the roots of the tree to remember the bittersweet thoughts, I have no objection. β
"Why don't you find some wild fruits?" Moeka Akaya suggested.
"That's it." Lias chimed in, "There should be fruit trees in such a large forest." β
"Even if there is a food tester, are you sure you can find wild fruit?" Mo Wen put his hand on his forehead: "You should not forget the world we live in now?" β
"Isn't it the pre-Cretaceous Earth? I remember that there are a lot of fruits in the human world. Lias asked, a little confused.
ββ¦β¦ Lias has lived in the demon world since she was a child, and it is understandable. Mo Wen turned his head: "Mengxiang, you should understand what I mean." β
ββ¦β¦ I don't understand. The little vampire shook her head, apparently she didn't know anything about it.
"Since we are in a pre-Cretaceous period, the main vegetation on Earth at this time is gymnosperms, ferns and mosses, and angiosperms are probably not yet present." The black god Taki reacted and explained to the other two: "Angiosperms refer to those plants that need flowering and pollination, and most of the fruits we eat are the fruits of this type of plant. β
"That's it......" Hearing this, the little devil lowered his head in disappointment.
"If you don't have that, even if you don't have fruit, you should still be able to find edible plant stems." Mo Wen comforted: "Even if it's me, I'll get tired of meat." β
"Now you're just waiting here, I'm going to hunt a dinosaur and come back."
β¦β¦
"Are you sure this thing can be eaten?" Jong Joong, who was holding a giant beetle, looked at his teammate like hell.
"Of course! I have tested it with an instrument, this insect is rich in a lot of protein and trace elements, even if it is not sterilized, it can help you replenish a lot of energy needed by the body, but the carapace on their body is a little troublesome, but these are minor problems! Skillfully pulling off the head of the worm and peeling off the shell, the man did not hesitate to throw the headless corpse, which was 'rich in protein and trace elements', into his mouth and chewed it in a big way.
"I said, is it really okay to eat like this?" [No matter how you look at this thing, it's the ancestor of dung beetles...... I don't want to eat shells! Looking at the pale green liquid that still remained at the corner of his companion's mouth, Zhong Zhong's heart trembled. "It won't have any adverse effects on the body."
"There are still bad effects." The man in camouflage grabbed a large brown worm covered in wrinkles, frowned, and then resolutely stuffed it into his mouth: "But with our physique, this adverse effect can be completely ignored. β
ββ¦β¦ I'm still a vegetarian. Zhong Zhong swallowed his saliva and picked up a piece of fat root of an unknown plant. Although I admire Bei Ye who stands at the top of the food chain, I still can't accept such a 'bold' way of eating......"
"President, you're not enlightened enough...... But it's okay, the goal is to surpass Bei Ye and become the only man who can devour the world. The man who swallowed the worm in his stomach grabbed a strange big worm and began to deal with it: "But the president, if you are vegetarian alone, you are easily malnourished, should we hunt one or two dinosaurs to try it?" β
"Dinosaur hunting? Have you forgotten how embarrassed we were to be chased by that Tyrannosaurus? The little man retorted: "The only people in our group can fight are you and the president, and it's easy to have accidents!" β
"Coward, you will never be able to become a strong person like this!"
"Do strong people have to be foodies like you?"
"Stop arguing!" Zhong Zhong shouted angrily, "This is not a safe zone, do you still want to play Battle Royale?" β
"Roaring !!!" As if to prove his words, a ferocious roar sounded from behind Zhong Zhong without warning.
Everyone's faces changed instantly.
"You're going to grow with a big crow's mouth!" The little man screamed and ran: "The wind is tight!" β
There was a flurry of chickens and dogs.
[Hey...... I really miss the last world, the terrain of this world is too complicated. Zhong Zhong, who was fleeing for his life, helped his glasses and complained in his heart.
[Firmament, you bastard! I'm running out of this bunch of goods. γ
β¦β¦
Eleven hours after Mo Wen and his party came to this world, dusk fell.
Although the darkness had little effect on everyone, Mo Wen still stopped, cleared a small clean place, and set up a tent on the spot, ready to rest.
[Hey...... It took less than a hundred miles to walk out in half a day, and the spiritual aura of the induction was still ethereal, and I didn't know how many days it would take. Mo Wen was tumbling the meat skewers on the stove while thinking about the way forward.
[The terrain of the forest is complex, and there are many dangers hidden that are not easy for us to detect, and if you fly through the sky, you must be able to increase your speed a lot. But with my current cultivation, it is still a little difficult to take these three little guys with Edgeworth, in case I encounter other travelers or more powerful indigenous creatures......] Mo Wen secretly shook his head and denied this method.
"Don't ask, what are you thinking? The skewers are about to burn when they are grilled. Seeing Mo Wenwen, the little devil reminded on the side.
"Oh, you eat first." Mo Wen came back to his senses, spilled the seasoning that had been prepared a long time ago, and then divided the food in his hand. Then he picked up a handful of skewers and continued to grill them on the stove.
"Well, it's delicious! This dinosaur meat is really good. The little devil took a bite, a satisfied smile on his face.
Little vampires eat silently.
γDao Technique...... What a handy ability. Recalling Mo Wen's previous actions, a trace of yearning appeared in the black god's eyes. When will I learn it? γ
At noon, Mo Wen solved five dinosaurs that were more than two meters high, condensed the water into ice and made an ice blade, and cut off a few pieces of the tendon meat of the lower limbs of these dinosaurs and the tenderloin next to the spine. Then he cut down a three-meter-tall alder tree, made hundreds of wooden skewers out of the wood in the heart of the tree, and skewered all the pieces of meat on top - the whole process took less than ten minutes.
[Although I have sensed a lot of spiritual veins gathering places with the technique of looking at qi before, there must be powerful creatures in the spiritual land, and it is still unknown whether I can win the battle at my current level...... The result of the calculation is that although there is a small catastrophe in the east, there is a great benefit after the catastrophe, and the place where I break through the realm and cross the catastrophe should be here, and there may be nobles to help in the catastrophe, and there is no danger in thinking about it. Just as the three loli were eating in small bites, Mo Wen was still absentmindedly turning the wooden skewer in his hand, allowing the flames to continue to lick the meat skewers, making a sizzling oil popping sound.
[I'm just getting started with the art of stealing the sky, and the asking price is 10,000 universal points, and the magic power of bringing a gold medal is really profound enough. With only supernatural cultivation, I can only achieve the first half of the auspicious and evil avoidance, but with my talent, I can still blur the sense, and if I go directly to the spiritual land in the northwest, there will be a bloody disaster...... That feeling of being on your back. Thinking of those few times of life and death, Mo Wen shrank his neck with palpitations.
[I felt several powerful breaths along the way, but only the northern breath was different, although it also carried the wildness and ferocity that symbolized the wilderness, but it was accompanied by an extremely strong death aura...... Could it be that Anming guy used necromancy to create a zombie dragon? But this kind of creature with an aura of strength is definitely not something that guy can do alone, or is he using the power of the Traveler Organization? Yes! That guy is codenamed Hades, and he is the Hades King of Greek mythology, and he belongs to that legendary alliance...... It's a little tricky, and I don't want to be beaten up. γ
[But Liangzi has already been married, and I don't agree with that guy in the first place. Thinking of what An Ming did during the Three Kingdoms period, Mo Wen snorted coldly with disdain in his heart. [If you don't meet, you'll be fine, but if you have a chance, you must kill him.] γ
[Forget it, now I don't plan to take the initiative to provoke him, at the moment my main task is to find a suitable cultivation location and then break through the four-star ...... At the current rate, we will be out of the forest about tomorrow afternoon. Recalling the information he had obtained from the sky before, Mo Wen couldn't help but smile and gently bite off a piece of fat and thin dinosaur meat. [Without these dense vegetation, I think the speed of the journey will be much faster.] γ
"Phew!" [I'll go, it's burnt!] γ
β¦β¦
There is a formation guard, Mo Wen slept quite peacefully this night, the only thing worth mentioning is that the careless little devil did not do a good job of protection when he went out to get up at night, and was stung in the buttocks by a scorpion-like bug - fortunately, the poisonous insect was not very poisonous, and the little vampire who was woken up by her scream asked Mo Wen for some disinfectant bandages and took care of the wound.
With their previous experience, the movement speed of the three little devils in the jungle increased a lot, and at noon the next day, Mo Wen and his party walked out of the forest.
"Oh! It's finally time to wash! Looking at the smooth surface of the lake in front of him, the little devil let out a cry of joy - although Mo Wen and the others, who had endless water bottles in their hands, would not be bothered by thirst, they would not be able to take care of their daily washing. It wasn't that they didn't encounter a water source when they were in the forest before, but there were always one or two behemoths or hordes of predators on the edge of the trickle, and Mo Wen, who didn't want to cause trouble, naturally wouldn't allow the little devil to come forward and die.
The little devil who had not done personal hygiene for a day and was uncomfortable naturally could not resist this temptation.
"Stop, Lias!" Mo Wen's face was displeased.
"Huh?" The little devil stopped and looked back at Mo Wen.
"Have you forgotten what I taught you before? This is not an outing! Mo Wen saw that Lias still looked unclear, and a burst of anger suddenly rose in his heart: "You take a closer look at the shore of this lake." β
ββ¦β¦ Aren't there just footprints? The little devil craned his neck and whispered, "There are no other creatures here now. β
"Hey! Not on the shore, but what about in the water? Mo Wen laughed angrily: "Such a big lake, but the footprints on the shore that can be used for drinking water are so sparse, and there are more than a dozen obvious dents...... Guess what's hidden in this lake? β
"Hmm......"
"A Traveler's Home is not a kindergarten, and world travel is not a home! Between life and death, you can't be too careful. Mo Wen reprimanded sharply: "Isn't the blood shed last time still long remembered?" β
"I know it's wrong......" The little devil apologized in a low voice.
"Looks like you're still lucky...... That's fine. [Sure enough, isn't it enough prestige?] Sweeping the eyes of the three of them, Mo Wen sighed secretly in his heart, and the sword rose. "Don't move here, I'll be back in a moment."
"What is that guy going to do?" After a while, after making sure that Mo Wen had left some distance, the little devil came to his friend's side and asked.
"I guess I'm going to catch dinosaurs." Akaya Moeka shook her head: "Lias, this time it was indeed you who were reckless. β
"I really knew I was wrong." The little devil bowed his head to his friend: "But that guy's attitude is really ...... My dad didn't discipline me like that. β
"Lias, you're not in the right mindset." Seeing that the other party was still playing petty, the vampire sighed: "Anyway, he is our master, and he is really for your good just now...... Calm your grievances. β
[That Akaya Moeka may be a good teammate, but the demon named Lias is a little unscrupulous, is the princess sick?] The black god looked around vigilantly while pondering. [Why didn't Master just terminate the contract with that guy? Maybe there's a reason I don't know. γ
Mo Wen's luck was not bad, he found a group of small dinosaurs in less than five minutes, and with air superiority, Mo Wen easily cut off the head of an adult-sized dinosaur, and then lifted its body and flew back to the lake, throwing it in front of the three loli.
Traces of blood continued to spread with the current, and the surface of the lake was as calm as before, without the slightest wave.
"Moeka, grab my back!" Mo Wen didn't stop for a moment after throwing the corpse down, he lifted Lias with his left hand, grabbed the black god with his right hand, and after the little vampire hugged him, he rose up and landed on a big tree at the edge of the forest.
"What the hell are you going to do?" The little vampire looked puzzled, "Could it be that the monsters in the water are really dangerous and need us to go up to the trees to escape?" β
"It's not, it's just that I didn't expect these guys to be so pestering, so I just planned it...... Just watch slowly. β
Two minutes later, the group of small dinosaurs that Mo Wen attacked came to the lake, screaming at the headless corpse.
[I see...... This should teach the eldest lady who doesn't grow up a profound lesson. The black god stared at the shadows at the bottom of the lake. Are those guys the predators in this lake? γ
"Attention!" Don't ask to drink low with the art of sound transmission.
Crash!
The water splashed, and six hideous heads burst out of the waves, and before the small dinosaurs standing by the lake could react, the bloody mouths bit their prey, and the sound of oozing bones cracking followed.
"It's a dire crocodile!" [Looking at those dents, I thought it was a giant python.] Looking at the scaly beasts, Mo Wen touched the hilt of his sword. [Two four-star, four three-star...... Although they are fast in the water, these guys are not capable of aerial combat, and if I am careful, they are invincible! γ
"......," Lias's face turned pale, and she thought to herself that if she hadn't stood by the lake unprepared, she would never have been able to avoid such an attack.
γAncient Giant Crocodile...... The largest modern crocodile is only close to seven meters, but these guys are ten meters away no matter how you look at it] The black god stared at the six giant crocodiles by the lake with interest, without the slightest fear in his eyes. [Judging by their size, this thing can't fill their stomachs at all.] γ
"You stay here quietly, I'll test the strength of these crocodiles." Mo Wen put aside the next sentence and jumped onto the cloud shadow.
On the shore of the lake, more than a dozen small dinosaurs had already scattered and fled, and six dinosaurs were lying lazily on the shore, quietly enjoying the small snacks delivered to the door.
[There's no defense...... Is it the arrogance of being the overlord of the lake? It's good. Mo Wen stood proudly in the air, chanting a mantra.
"The earth is four shapes, the sky is ninety, the glory of Taibai, and all things are killed!"
Taking advantage of the cloud shadow, Mo Wen easily transformed a large amount of golden spirit power, condensed into a sword shape under the spell, and hung in the air.
[It's too obvious, and the casting speed is slow enough, and this kind of Dao technique can be used to deal with these brainless beasts.] Lias looked at the white gold sword shadow in the air and pursed her lips disdainfully.
In fact, this move 'Broken Iron Sword' does not require such a long preparation time, as an upgraded version of the Golden Spirit Sword Qi, it also has a special method of accumulating spiritual power to enhance damage, Mo Wen relies on this method to prepare for a one-hit kill.
By the way, the final version of the Golden Spirit Sword Qi is the Golden Spirit Thousand Illusion Sword that Mo Wen once used - the Xuanmen spell has always been from shallow to deep, step by step.
Perhaps it was because the killing intent exuded by Mo Wen was too obvious, and the savage beasts who were chewing on the flesh and bone finally sensed that something was wrong, and six pairs of fist-sized eyes glanced into the air together, and a strange gurgling sound came out of their throats.
It is clear that this is a threat.
Mo Wen really didn't expect the roar of this group of big guys to be so cute, but he didn't take this group of guys in his eyes - the master can fly, did you bite me?
"Go!" Feeling that the spiritual power gathered by the spell had reached the limit of what he could control, Mo Wen snorted lightly, and the golden sword turned into a white rainbow, directly taking the head of the four-star dire crocodile at the head.
Perhaps it was the beast's intuition, the giant beast in the lake instinctively sensed the danger of the sword light, but unfortunately, its massive body severely limited its agility - even though it dodged with all its might, half of its head was still cut off by Bai Hong.
Pale red blood gushed out from the wound and sprinkled on the shallows of the lakeshore, and the beast that was not dead for a moment waved its limbs wildly, its giant tail like an iron whip swayed back and forth, pumping the rubble on the shore.
[Sure enough, the disadvantage of being large is the lack of flexibility...... But they don't really need to be flexible. Also, it is enough to have a surprise attack speed in the absence of natural predators. The defense of this group of guys is really strong, and that layer of scale armor is basically equivalent to a steel plate thirty centimeters thick! If you don't use the spell to slash with Cloud Shadow alone, that guy will be a minor injury at best. After Mo Wen succeeded in the first blow, he stopped, carefully analyzing the information obtained from the blow just now.
[Looking at the sparse footprints on the edge of this lake, I think that the surrounding creatures know that there is danger in this lake, so these dinosaur crocodiles are probably predators standing at the top of this small area. Now I can easily kill a dire crocodile mainly because they don't have the ability to fight in the air and their own carelessness, and in land warfare, I only have the ability to escape...... You may be able to use your stamina to kite them to death, but if you fight hard, you will definitely die or die! Sure enough, you need to outwit some guys with developed limbs......]
"Gollum!" Seeing that his companion was seriously injured and died, another four-star dinosaur crocodile finally made a move, and the black god on the tree saw it clearly, and the thick limbs of the dinosaur slammed the ground, and the huge body rose into the air, and the huge caliber bit straight into the air - the dinosaur will not only hunt and kill the dinosaurs that come to the lake to drink, but also the flying creatures that fly over the lake are also in their recipes.
The loud sound of the dinosaur slapping the ground undoubtedly alarmed Mo Wen in thought, and when he came back to his senses, he was faced with a large mouth of blood that was enough to stuff three people in, and the thick rancid smell made Mo Wen a little disgusting.
[Hey, these big lizards still have this hand...... They don't fly high enough, and they are underestimated. Looking at the two rows of disgusting blood-colored fangs in front of him, Mo Wen jumped lightly, and then he was out of the attack range of the dire crocodile - the speed of this raid was completely incomparable to them in the water, not to mention Mo Wen, it is estimated that the weakest black god can react.
Mo Wen in mid-air turned around in a dashing way, and Yun Ying took advantage of this flick to fly out and stabbed into the mouth of the dire crocodile, unlike the guy who had half of his head cut off before, this dire crocodile only twitched its limbs for a while after it landed, and then ran out of breath.
The two most powerful dinosaur crocodiles of the "Gollum ......" were killed one after another, and the remaining four dinosaur crocodiles were also stimulated by the blood, and they all roared and jumped up, but Mo Wen had already adjusted his height, and the big mouth of the dinosaur crocodiles in the sky could not hurt Mo Wen at all, but leaked their weaknesses under Mo Wen's sword.
Two minutes later, there were four more bodies on the shore.
