Chapter 464: Predation

Chen Ziyang, who was still struggling with the relationship between the belt buckle of the old king of the ancient kingdom and the seal spider in front of him, suddenly saw that there seemed to be a black shadow moving in the direction of the seal spider near the seal spider.

This now made Chen Ziyang stunned, he felt very strange, although the flashlight beam in his hand was very bright, but there was still no way to illuminate every corner of these roots coiled together.

On the side wall of the tree hole, which is made of tree roots, there are still many black shadows under the light of the flashlight. What made Chen Ziyang feel the most strange was that he saw in the corner of his eye just now, as if there was a black shadow moving among the black shadows between the roots of these trees.

He thought it was his own delusion, how could there be a dark shadow in the dark shadow? The black shadow was originally formed because there was an object blocking the light, and the place where the shadow appeared was already very dark, how could there be a black shadow moving in such a place, it must be because of the movement of the flashlight in his hand just now, which caused him to have a visual illusion, Chen Ziyang thought.

But before he could take the next step, Chen Ziyang saw a black shadow moving in the direction of the seal spider.

This shadow is not too big, but it advances very quickly, but the distance of the shadow is relatively short. The shadow "swished" and jumped forward a few dozen centimeters away, closer to the position of the seal spider.

At this moment, Chen Ziyang could see clearly, there was indeed a black object moving in the direction of the seal spider. This sudden appearance dispelled his idea of approaching the Seal Spider.

After making a gesture to Yang Lei behind him, Chen Ziyang whispered a few words in Yang Lei's ear about the black shadow, and then stood still.

He tried his best to keep his body still, for fear that his movements would scare the black shadow, and for fear that the flashlight beam in his hand would move because of his movements, and thus lose the shadow target.

Although Chen Ziyang didn't catch the movement of the black shadow in time when the shadow was coming out just now, he could see it clearly when the black shadow stopped. Now Chen Ziyang stared intently at the place where the black shadow was hidden.

I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, but every time this black shadow stopped, it hid in the shadows between the roots of the tree that the flashlight beam could not illuminate. It was precisely for this reason that Chen Ziyang did not dare to act rashly, he was afraid that this black shadow would be affected by the flashlight beam in his hand.

Before everyone came here, it can be said that this tree hole had been sealed for 2,000 years. The appearance of this seal spider had greatly surprised Chen Ziyang, he did not expect that there would be creatures in this strange underground world made of tree roots.

A seal spider is okay, and now there is a black shadow that I don't know what it is, what is this black shadow? Is it a creature or an evil thing?

After quietly pouring mana into his eyes, Chen Ziyang did not see the existence of any qi in the place where the black shadow stayed, so in other words, this black shadow was not an evil thing.

If this shadow is not an evil thing, then it should be a creature. Thinking of this, Chen Ziyang put his mind at ease, although he was in a hurry to chase Instructor Liu and the Dryad, but the things in front of him at this time made him even more curious.

Beneath the remains of this Dryad, which had been burned for two thousand years, a strange seal spider appeared, and the pattern on the butt of this seal spider turned out to be exactly the same as the pattern on the belt buckle of the king of the ancient kingdom of Sumi. This alone was enough for Chen Ziyang to take the time to understand the details.

Now a black shadow appeared out of thin air, and judging from the movement trajectory of this black shadow, this black shadow was obviously heading towards the seal spider. Each time the shadow moved, it was very fast, and at the same time the shadow emerged from one shadow and into another, obviously not wanting to attract the attention of the seal spider.

After looking at it for a while, Chen Ziyang understood. The black lizard shadow is supposed to be a predator, and the seal spider is supposed to be its prey. He just stood there silently, staring closely at the shadow where the shadow was hidden, waiting for the shadow's next move.

Yang Lei didn't have Chen Ziyang's concentration and perseverance, after standing behind Chen Ziyang for a while, Yang Lei felt that his two legs were a little untenable, and his legs were shaking vigorously.

But in order not to disturb Chen Ziyang, in order not to frighten the black shadow, Yang Lei had no choice but to endure it, still standing there motionless, trying his best to control his trembling legs.

Probably after confirming that the surrounding environment was relatively safe, and knowing that he had not frightened the seal spider, the black shadow moved again, but this time, the black shadow moved very slowly.

Maybe it's because it's relatively close to the seal spider, and this time the black shadow is no longer rushing forward, but slowly crawling in the direction of the seal spider.

The black shadow crawled very slowly and very carefully, and without a sound, he approached the seal spider from the direction behind the seal spider, and slowly crawled out of the shadows.

When the black shadow slowly crawled out of the shadow of the tree root, Chen Ziyang, who saw the whole picture of the black shadow, opened his mouth wide in surprise, he couldn't believe what he saw.

After Yang Lei, who was standing behind Chen Ziyang, saw this black shadow, the expression on his face was even more exaggerated than Chen Ziyang. Yang Lei's eyes widened in disbelief, if it weren't for the eye sockets blocking him, his two eyeballs would have been stared out.

At this time, a black shadow was crawling on the side wall of the tree hole in front of Chen Ziyang and Yang Lei, and the shape of this shadow had been seen by the two of them before, it was a black shadow similar to the shape of a lizard.

The black shadow is exactly the same as the lizard tattoo pattern on Instructor Liu's arm before, but the current black shadow area is slightly smaller, and this black lizard shadow does not have strange red eyes like the lizard tattoo pattern on the back of Instructor Liu's hand.

Chen Ziyang looked at it carefully, this black shadow gave people a very strange feeling, the creature did not look like a creature, and the shadow did not look like a shadow.

This lizard shadow has no thickness at all, just like a paper cut made of a thin black piece of paper, except that this paper cut has its own consciousness and can move freely.

Chen Ziyang searched his head all over again, and he didn't think of any creature similar to the lizard shadow in front of him. How can a creature look so strange? It's like a piece of paper! Doesn't this creature have no internal organs, just a skin? Chen Ziyang thought strangely.

"Eryang, that's not ......"

"Shh......h

Yang Lei, who was surprised, just wanted to open his mouth to ask Chen Ziyang, but his words were suddenly interrupted by Chen Ziyang. Although Yang Lei didn't speak loudly, and Chen Ziyang was also very quiet to stop him, the sound of the two people still frightened the black shadow in the shape of a lizard.

The black lizard shadow was startled by the two men and quickly stopped, and quickly crawled backwards backwards for some distance.

But the black lizard shadow seemed to be a seal spider reluctant to get close, and after reversing some distance, the black lizard shadow stopped there, shaking its thin head.

Seeing that the black lizard shadow was not scared away, Chen Ziyang exhaled slowly, and at the same time threw a roll of his eyes at Yang Lei beside him. Yang Lei, who knew that he was at a loss, lowered his head embarrassedly, trying not to make any noise.

Although this black lizard shadow does not have red eyes on it, through the shadow's movements, Chen Ziyang can judge that this black lizard shadow is vigilantly watching the surroundings, even if it is not looking with its eyes, it should be using its unique perception method to judge whether there is danger around.

After waiting for a while, the black lizard shadow let down its guard and slowly crawled in the direction of the seal spider. At this time, the seal spider still stopped in place stupidly, not noticing that a black shadow was slowly approaching in the direction behind him.

The shadow of the black lizard slowly approached the seal spider, one meter, half a meter, thirty centimeters, ten centimeters...... As the black lizard shadow gets closer and closer to the seal spider, the lizard shadow moves more and more slowly, and at the same time becomes more and more careful.

When the black lizard shadow was only ten centimeters away from the seal spider, the lizard shadow stopped. Chen Ziyang saw that on the side of the black lizard's shadow, he slowly opened a red eye.

The eye, which had no eyeballs, no kernels, appeared out of thin air on the side of the black lizard, as if it were a completely red spot.

Seeing this, Chen Ziyang's heart became excited. He was now 100% sure that this black lizard shadow-like thing was the tattoo that had appeared on Instructor Liu's arm earlier.

"No wonder!" Chen Ziyang thought. It's no wonder that when Instructor Liu held down his eyes and struggled desperately, the weird tattoo pattern would leave a small wound on Instructor Liu's arm, it turned out that it was not a tattoo pattern, but a real creature.

Chen Ziyang now figured out that the one on Instructor Liu's arm before was not a tattoo pattern, but a creature that was exactly the same as the black lizard shadow in front of him, but because the body of this creature was too thin, it was mistaken for a tattoo by himself.

What is the use of this creature? What's so powerful about it? Why did this creature merge into Instructor Liu's body? Why did biology heal Instructor Liu's dying injuries? What's the deal with this strange creature's red eyes? Why didn't they integrate into Instructor Liu's body together?

Just as Chen Ziyang was thinking about this series of questions, the black lizard shadow once again regained its previous rapid movement mode, and swooped forward with a "whoosh", and directly pounced on the seal spider's body.

At this time, the hidden seal spider that has been careless has paid the price, and after being pounced on by the black lizard shadow, the seal spider struggles desperately, but it can't get rid of the entanglement of the lizard shadow, and the lizard shadow is entangled with the seal spider.

The black lizard shadow was like a thin layer of plaster, clinging to the surface of the seal spider. The Seal Spider tried his best to get the black lizard shadow off his body, but he couldn't.

Seeing two black things scuffling together, Chen Ziyang slowly took half a step forward, then he thought for a while, and then withdrew the leg that had stepped out.

Originally, Chen Ziyang wanted to take advantage of the fact that these two creatures were scuffling together and suddenly rush forward and grab all these two creatures in his hands at once, so that he could study these two things well. But the cautious Chen Ziyang immediately thought that it was not appropriate for him to do so.

I don't know if this seal spider is poisonous or not, and the black lizard shadow-like creature is even more unheard of, and if I rush forward like this, I will probably be injured by the two creatures that are entangled together.

Even if the two creatures don't hurt themselves, if the two creatures fighting in life and death are suddenly attacked by themselves, it is likely that the two creatures will separate from each other and flee separately because they are frightened. If that's the case, you'll probably not be able to catch any of them.

Thinking of this, Chen Ziyang set the most appropriate capture plan for himself, that is, to wait quietly, waiting for the moment when the black lizard shadow won.

Judging from the current situation of the fight between the two creatures, Chen Ziyang judged that there was an eighty or ninety percent chance that the black lizard shadow would kill the seal spider.

If you wait until that time, whether it is the black lizard shadow eating the seal spider, or taking the prey it captures to the nest, this is the time when the black lizard shadow is the least vigilant, and it is most conducive to its own capture.

Rather than rushing forward at the risk of not being able to catch any creature, it is better to wait quietly for a while, at least there is a good chance that you will catch one.

Although Chen Ziyang was very reluctant to die of this seal spider, as far as the current situation was concerned, he felt that this was his best choice.

The battle ended quickly, and after a while, the seal spider slowly stopped its movements under the shadow of the black lizard, and the eight legs of the seal spider stopped weakly, Chen Ziyang knew that this seal spider should be dead.

But the black lizard shadow did not let go of the corpse of the seal spider like this, but was still tightly wrapped around the surface of the seal spider, and at this time, Chen Ziyang's red eyes when he saw the black lizard shadow seemed to be even redder.

Knowing that the time he was waiting for had come, Chen Ziyang Xun rushed forward. After two steps to get closer, he quickly stretched out his right hand and grabbed at the black lizard shadow.
