Chapter Thirty-Seven: The True Foot Snake
The blood moon slowly fell, the lake was glowing with a faint light, and a cool breeze hit, making Lin Ye shudder. It was late at night.
He had returned to the trees, his eyes wide as he roamed around like a nocturnal owl.
After figuring out the effect of blood moonlight on creatures with growth value, Lin Ye's curiosity was satisfied. It had been nearly a day without sleep, which made Lin Ye, who was already sleepy, tired. He yawned, then lazily looked at the dinosaur eggs in the center of the quarry.
As long as the dinosaur eggs are safe, it doesn't matter if you're a little tired.
The strengthened discerning eye improved Lin Ye's night vision, and the picture he saw was black and white, and the surrounding stones showed clear outlines, just like in the early morning.
Fifty meters away from the center, near the end of the Blood Moon Lake, a black object moved. Lin Ye suddenly became vigilant, but he could see it clearly. The black creature swam through the crevices of the rocks and seemed to be adept at lurking. Little by little, it passed through the narrow gap, the small sound between its body and the stone crevice, muffled by the sound of the wind, and it was slowly approaching the center of the stone field.
"Is it a snake?" Lin Ye narrowed his eyes, his pupils were pitch black, absorbing the light around him as much as he could. Although it was hundreds of meters away, every move of this snake was under Lin Ye's eyes. If the snake's body is straightened, its body length is close to one meter, which is less than half the size of the oviraptorosaur.
The snake's tail is flanked by two stubby feet that propel its body slowly. It spat out the letter, and although its view was blocked by the surrounding stones, it swam around the cracks in the stones, but it did not deviate from its direction, and always made its way to the center of the stone field.
The snake's skin is red and black, and it is almost completely hidden in the moonlight at night.
In the middle of the road lies a stone weighing more than ten catties, which arches the stone with ease and swims underneath with amazing strength.
The oviraptor waiting in the egg nest had a slight rise and fall in its chest, breathing very steadily, and seemed to be sleeping soundly, not noticing that a snake was slowly approaching.
"Successful species identification, true foot snake, Cretaceous two-legged snake, non-venomous, prey: small creatures, dinosaur cubs and dinosaur eggs. ”
As soon as he heard that this guy was eating dinosaur eggs, Lin Ye's whole bird became excited. It's not going to work! It's about whether he gets his mission done or not!
He immediately flapped his wings and flew down from the low tree.
But as soon as he jumped off the branch, his feet had not yet touched the ground, and Lin Ye suddenly thought that he would most likely not be able to defeat this snake. The latter is twice as large as the birdcatcher.
That's embarrassing. No, if you can't beat it, what else can you do?
Of course, Lin Ye would not give up on stopping the True Foot Snake, he had an idea and thought of a good way.
He picked up a small stone in his mouth, and then jumped up on the raised stone, his powerful legs gave Lin Ye enough momentum, and each big jump could jump two to three meters away, allowing him to reach the center of the stone field in advance before the real foot snake approached the dinosaur egg.
After thinking about it, Lin Ye did not lie in ambush on the path that the True Foot Snake must pass, but hid behind a relatively tall stone with a stone in his mouth, and he could see the situation below. And the egg stealing dragon was asleep at Lin Ye's feet, and a subtle snoring could be heard.
The stubby hind feet of the true-footed snake didn't seem to help it much, and its speed was much slower than the hundred-legged centipede that Lin Ye had seen. After five minutes, it finally came to the center of the quarry, where the gravel was relatively flat, and it instinctively shrank when it saw the oviraptorosaur, but after seeing the dinosaur egg in the center, the speed of the obviously hungry true-footed snake suddenly increased a lot.
The distance between it and the dinosaur egg is constantly shrinking, twenty meters, fifteen meters, ten meters, five meters!
Finally it reached the nest and began to climb the nest of dead grass layer by layer. Its gaze was firmly fixed on the largest and roundest dinosaur egg on the top, which happened to be the one with the most growth value. It opened its mouth wide in excitement, and the dinosaur eggs in front of it were within reach.
Illuminated by the moonlight, the body of the true-footed snake was very clear when exposed to the moonlight.
But just as it was dreaming, a rock was thrown over its head and smashed right on the egg-stealing faucet behind it.
Wake up, get up and get to work!
With a clang, the egg stealing dragon looked up in a daze, just in time to see the true-footed snake climbing the egg nest.
The two looked at each other, and after a while, the first thing to react was the egg stealing dragon!
First he looked at the true-footed snake with its mouth wide open and not yet closed, and then at his own egg nest, and immediately made the egg stealing dragon wake up!
But the True Foot Snake's reaction was not slow, it was stunned at first, and did not understand why the Egg Stealing Dragon woke up at this time. But soon the scales on its body stood on end, and now was not the time to think, it was now discovered!
The real foot snake jumped off the nest and turned around and fled, twice as fast as when it got up. The oviraptor chased after it, its tail balanced, and relying on the wide stride spacing, each step topped the ten steps of the small short legs of the true foot snake.
Feeling the crisis of life and death, the real foot snake ran away frantically, and finally the writhing upper body even slowly floated off the ground, pushing it to escape from its hind feet, like a lizard with a slight step. Of course, it still can't outrun the Egg Stealing Dragon.
Ten seconds passed, and the Egg Stealer was about to catch up with the latter, and the Truefoot Snake slipped into the crevice of the rubble beneath its feet. The Egg Stealing Dragon stood on it, as if determined to kill it.
Lin Ye, who caused the scene of the two chasing each other, hid behind the rocks and giggled. Just a small stone has evoked a fight between the two, which is much easier than relying on brute force to do it.
This is a plan to drive away the dragon and swallow the snake! Anyway, it's all about protecting the dinosaur eggs, and it's a pity that there are such good thugs around who don't take advantage of it!
Tired of running away, the Truefoot Snake seemed to be tired of running away, not knowing when it would be a head, or perhaps thinking it could scare off the Oviraptorost, it sprang out of the crack in the stone and hissed at the Oviraptorost.
Enough is enough! Am I really a bully! Its hind feet were on the rocks, and its body stood up, and it was the same height as the oviraptorosaur. I want to use this to scare off omnivorous oviraptors.
The oviraptor seemed to be very angry, and it stood up with its feathers like a big angry rooster. With an angry pace, it immediately rushed over and bit the neck of the still provocative True Foot Snake, and then shook its neck, throwing it up and smashing it to the ground.
If you don't die, you won't die, this real-foot snake still can't hold its breath, it's too naïve.
Stone chips flew, and pits were smashed into the ground. By the time the Egg Stealing Dragon's anger was fully vented, the True Foot Snake had been smashed more than thirty times. Its flesh and blood were blurred, and its eyes, which had been filled with strange light, gradually lost their lustre.
Standing on the stones, Lin Ye chirped happily a few times, applauding the egg stealing dragon.
And the egg stealing dragon stared at Lin Ye as soon as he turned his head, in its eyes, this pitch-black chick had to be expelled!
Lin Ye swallowed a mouthful of saliva. He suddenly felt that he had done something stupid by being exposed to the Egg Stealing Dragon.
With an exclamation, the thick tail knocked the stone away, and Lin Ye flapped his wings and flew down. Now he's the target of the Egg Stealing Dragon's expulsion!
There used to be a toothpick bird that acted as a vigilante for the crocodile to obtain the meat scraps left in the crocodile's mouth, but now Lin Ye is like the "toothpick bird" of the egg stealing dragon, but he doesn't enjoy the corresponding treatment. Lin Ye, who was full of grievances, was a little unhappy. He was a great hero in protecting the dinosaur eggs, but he was beaten upside down instead. The IQ of these oviraptors is still too low for cooperation.
Lin Ye was disgraced, he hid in the crack of the stone like the real foot snake, and waited patiently for more than half an hour, and the egg stealing dragon seemed to rush back because he was worried that the dinosaur egg would be attacked. And Lin Ye took this opportunity to escape from the sight of the egg stealing dragon.
Angry and returning to the low tree on the stone field, Lin Ye decided to sleep!
Anyway, this oviraptorosaur has already woken up, and in the gravel area with a danger of C, Lin Ye thinks that the oviraptorosaur is the source of danger, and what else can attack the dinosaur egg from under its nose?
The latter was now patrolling the nest with great vigilance, and judging by its startled and sensitive appearance, the Oviraptor would not sleep again tonight.
Yawned.
If you don't sleep, I'll sleep! Lin Ye's eyes were closed, his head tilted, and he fell asleep directly on the branch.
