Chapter 19: The Strange Beasts by the River

In the area near the big river, the amount of rain is obviously much less, and the plants are not as lush as Yang Qian's journey.

But the rain still filled the river, and the river flowed mightily all the way, and in the reddish-brown water, gray-black figures were sinking and floating.

It's a crocodile.

These crocodiles are about the same size as the dinosaur crocodile, with the only difference being the mouth.

The mouth of the dire crocodile is wide, while the mouth of this crocodile is narrow and long, and it looks wide at the front of the nose, as if it has a round ball on the front.

The scales on their backs are somewhat different from those of the dinosaur crocodile, and the back is a deck arranged horizontally, which is relatively smooth; Instead of being arranged vertically like the dinosaur, with rows of protrusions.

This is the emperor crocodile.

In the Cretaceous world, another large crocodile was named after the dinosaur.

He also has a reputation for ferocity and brutality, fearing his enemies, and is a tyrant in the shallow swamps.

What surprised Yang Qian was that inside the entire big river, as far as the eye could see, there were all gray-black backs densely packed, so many emperor crocodiles, they all lived together, where did the food come from?

Even if the river could maintain its current level of water at such a high level, it would not have been possible to have so much food to feed them.

In addition to the river, the countless flying pterodactyls in the sky on the other side of the river also surprised Yang Gan. The opposite bank looked like there should be less rain, and the obvious green was not as much as the place where Yang Gan was standing, let alone the places that Yang Qian had passed by in the past few days.

There are also quite a few dinosaurs roaming around the ground, Tyrannosaurus, Velociraptor, Sharkodontosaurus, Carnotaurus and many more. Almost all the carnivorous dinosaurs that Yang Qian knew or didn't know could be found here.

From the sky, to the ground, including the rivers, Yang Gan looked at almost all carnivorous creatures.

If it weren't for the fact that the sky is high and the earth is wide here, Yang Qian would have thought that these carnivorous creatures would gnaw off a piece of the sky.

Whoever comes will be surprised.

With so many carnivorous creatures, where do they forage from? You know, not so long ago, this area was a dry wasteland, and more insects lived here.

Are these carnivores ready to change their tastes and start eating insects?

Just kidding, with their size, how many insects do they have to eat for a meal?

Most carnivores have an astonishing appetite, because the hunt is not always successful, and the prey is not always available. So, they usually hunt as much as they can eat small prey, but if there is enough prey for them to eat, it is normal to eat one-tenth to one-fifth of their body weight in one meal.

For example, a crocodile weighing 1,000 catties can eat about 200 catties of food at a time. Because after eating, they can hide in the water, have no enemies, do not need to exercise, and can slowly lie down and digest; Comparatively speaking, snakes also have such a large amount of food, but because they are alone, they can sometimes be miserable. For example, the first giant python that Yang Qian saw in the Cretaceous, the guy who couldn't even escape because he was too full to eat, and was torn alive by his dreaded crocodile father.

Predators on land eat less, but definitely a tenth of their body weight.

And in front of Yang Qian, how many carnivorous creatures there were in the heavens and the underground rivers, he couldn't count. Moreover, these Cretaceous predators, even in normal times, with their size, each or a group, needed to occupy a large territory to hunt. But now they are all gathered together, in this barren area, waiting for food to fall from the sky?

There were all kinds of hissing and roaring sounds in my ears, all of which were carefully carving out small territories, and then lazily waiting for something. And those carnivorous dragons who don't have a small territory for the time being, either rely on their size or numbers, and try to get a place for themselves.

Yang Qian began to think that in the next moment, there would be aliens from outside the sky or something, driving a spaceship, to feed them!

The air-tailed lizard suddenly flew up and dangled in front of his eyes, gesturing at something.

Yang Qian has been with it for a long time, and he can already understand its meaning. Looking in the direction it gestured, I saw the direction of the road from which I came, and in the distance, a velociraptor figure appeared sneakily.

The guy didn't know where to hide for a few days, and it looked like he had lost some weight, but he was getting bigger and looked a little more streamlined. The change is not big, but Yang Gan has been in "close contact" with it, and he has been "walking all the way", and this change can still be seen.

Yang Qian, who was accustomed to the Cretaceous life, could of course see that the slight adjustment of the size of the velociraptor leader could make it more agile, including the speed and agility that it was originally an advantage, and play a better effect.

Of course, it may also be because its life was too good in the past, and it ate a little too fat, and these days life is difficult and it has lost weight. After all, in the forest, as the leader of a group of ordinary velociraptors, they occupy a large territory, and the food can be said to be at their fingertips.

But Yang Qian still believed that this was the change that that strange stone had brought to him.

Otherwise, it would not have explained why it was ecstatic to see the stone in the first place.

The dinosaurs of the Cretaceous period could not have intelligence, but when it comes to the instinct of survival, these guys who have evolved for hundreds of millions of years, even if they are traversers, do not dare to give themselves too much confidence compared to them, lest they stumble if they are not careful.

It seems that this term is not a good word. Yang Qian turned around and stopped thinking about this velociraptor anymore.

The stone had gone into its belly. After so many days, it must have been almost digested, and even if you catch it by yourself, you may not be able to gain anything.

He turned and walked towards the murky river.

When his huge figure appeared in the sight of the emperor crocodiles, almost all of them were scratched.

Several emperor crocodiles that were large enough swam out of the crocodile school and stopped in front of Yang Gan.

Although these emperor crocodiles are the largest in the crocodile group in the river, in Yang Gan's eyes, they can only be regarded as children.

Yang Qian had no intention of provoking a fight, but he was definitely not afraid of provocation.

However, these emperor crocodiles did not seem to come out for fear that Yang Qian would snatch the position of the leader, but to warn or remind them.

Anyway, they snorted for a while, and Yang Qian didn't quite understand what they meant. But after a few moments, the crocodiles slowly retreated, leaving him alone with a body of water, which he still understood.

During this period of "exchange", Yang Qian understood it. These emperor crocodiles are not a group at all, but for a possible reason, they have gathered together.

Therefore, they do not have a unified leader, and even if they join, in their opinion, it is nothing more than a more powerful kind. After they agree or give in, it is natural to give themselves a piece of territory.

They also don't seem to care about their arrival, and will take away their food sources that they have almost no in the first place, such as fish in the river - if there are still fish under the threat of so many emperor crocodiles.

Then Yang Qian threw himself into the river, made a huge splash, and then lazily turned his head and looked at the velociraptor defiantly.

He had to provoke the raptor's anger or other emotions and keep it patient enough to follow him, so that he could have a chance to snatch it if it found another stone.
