——————————
In the early morning, the warm sunlight filtered through the gaps in the leaves of the dense forest, and sprinkled on a chick on a log.
Lin Ye lay on the hollow log, opened his eyes and came to his senses.
As soon as he turned his head, he saw a lizard staring at him with a pair of big watery eyes, and it circled around Lin Ye, one moment burrowing into the grass, and the next jumping out, and seemed to be very happy.
When did you have eyes? Of course, Lin Ye would not be so stupid as to think that a new creature had arrived, and there was only one lizard in the entire dense forest area, and that was the eyeless lizard.
It's just that Lin Ye was shocked in his heart, how could there be such a thing as an eyeless lizard that could grow two eyes for no reason.
The lizard seemed to be very happy that it had a pair of eyes, and its back armor had changed from gray to a dark red, very similar to the moonlight at night. Scurrying in and out of rock crevices. After having eyes, it seems to be less fond of dark underground waterways, instead spending more time on the warm ground, looking around with the help of keen eyesight.
The lizard built a nest on the edge of the rock, and it took some short pieces of wood and accumulated them one by one, like building a watchtower. And it crouched on top of the wooden watchtower, staring at the big bright eyes, looking around vigilantly, like a good bodyguard who was loyal to his duty.
After waking up, the first thing Lin Ye did was to check the growth value, which was the most important thing. And this look doesn't matter, it immediately made Lin Ye find that it was forty points more than yesterday.
It definitely has something to do with last night! Lin Ye flapped his wings and began to ask the system in his mind. And the system immediately briefly told Lin Ye what happened last night.
Hearing that such a terrible thing happened last night, Lin Ye was stunned. He opened his mouth wide and looked at this natural lizard, and couldn't help but admire it in his heart.
With its eyes, the lizard's movements are much more agile than before, and its movements are no longer so restrictive, although it seems that its physical strength and strength have not improved significantly, but this is enough!
Now, this lizard is a blessing in disguise, and he also got 40 growth points for free, which can be said to be a lot of gains.
It's just that the Blood Moon Lake is even more mysterious in Lin Ye's eyes. Thinking of the blood-red tentacle staring at him, Lin Ye's body trembled. He didn't like the feeling of being controlled, and according to the system's prompts, Lin Ye flipped through the map in his mind.
Based on past experience, the map given by the system has the advantage of reflecting the danger of the nearby area to the forest night in real time.
He looked at the danger level marked by the Blood Moon Lake, but found that the danger level of the Blood Moon Lake changed from B+ to B, and the + sign disappeared!?
"The creatures in the lake, some of the limbs are tentacles, and they cannot be named. Hibernation has been confirmed. The system explained.
Hearing this explanation, Lin Ye's heart breathed a sigh of relief.
Things are moving on the bright side.
Suddenly, there was a sound of kicking from the ground, and a slight vibration came, Lin Ye's eyes lit up, and he immediately jumped onto the hollow log, standing on tiptoe to look at a path in the southwest. It was formed by the Diplodocus collapsing the surrounding trees, and in addition to the Diplodocus, it was also the only way for the Oviraptorosaurus.
To the east is the Blood Moon Lake, and to the west is the Marshland. And walking ten miles to the south and north, Lin Ye did not get out of the dense forest, so he didn't know what was going on in the north and south. However, the Egg Stealer would come every other week from the dense forests to the south or beyond.
The oviraptorosaurs didn't seem to be tired at all, some of them were holding one dinosaur egg, some were two or three, all of them female oviraptors.
Normally, at this time, it would take another three hours for the Egg Stealer Dragon to come over. But today it seems to be a little earlier.
The dinosaur eggs glow yellow, and as usual, they can provide Lin Ye with growth points.
Lin Ye expected a dinosaur egg to fall from their arms, but his expectations were disappointed. The footsteps of the eggstealing dragons did not stop, and they crossed the path one after another, passing twenty meters away from Lin Ye.
The eggstealing dragons had noticed, but they seemed to be in a hurry and didn't care about the little guy standing on the wood.
Lin Ye carefully counted the number of egg stealing dragons that passed by, one, two, a total of eight.
As the last egg stealing dragon ran towards the northwest near the Blood Moon Lake, Lin Ye suddenly remembered that he still had something to do, and he immediately went into the hideout and took the bags he wanted to prepare.
Lizard, take good care of your home and protect the rice seedlings by the pool! Turning his head at the lizard standing guard on the guard tower, Lin Ye said beautifully in his heart.
He took a half-meter-long blade of sharp yellow grass and tied it to his tail, then hung up the kettle, and by the way, tied three non-growth tree fruits that he had picked up around the dense forest around his waist as food, and happily set off behind the egg stealing dragon!
The speed of the egg stealing dragon is very fast, but Lin Ye's speed is not slow either. Under the full speed of running, Lin Ye was hung far behind him. Lin Ye's heart was in a hurry, and he immediately flapped his wings to speed up, and finally he didn't get out of touch, he always kept the last egg stealing dragon in sight, and then followed them through the grass, stepped over the wooden stakes, drilled through the collapsed trees, and slowly re-came to the shore of the Blood Moon Lake.
The eight eggstealing dragons did not pause, but continued to run along the shore of the lake. Lin Ye's wings spread slightly, exuding a huge amount of heat generated by running, he looked vigilantly at the Blood Moon Lake, the lake was very calm, and it seemed that as the system said, the body of the tentacle in the lake had been sleeping.
The long-tongued sandworms on the beach felt the vibration of the soles of the egg stealing dragon's feet, and they all shrank into the sand and did not dare to come out, which cheapened Lin Ye and made it easier for Lin Ye to follow behind the egg stealing dragon.
After another hour of running, Lin Ye gasped slightly, and the pace of the group of egg stealing dragons in front of him finally slowed down. If he hadn't been trained, he would have to lie down on his stomach with exhaustion halfway through.
This is still the junction of the dense forest area and the Blood Moon Lake, but it is already in the unexplored area of the forest night map, in fact, Lin Ye has already run more than twenty miles away. He unraveled a portion of the fog on the map, forming a T-shape in contrast to the unexplored fog.
In front of it is a gray-white stone pile, a large number of stones poured into the earth-yellow soil, embedded in it, and even the ground is basically made of gravel, gray-white limestone mixed with granite, evenly distributed in a radius of thousands of kilometers.
In the very center of the stone field, there is a special grass nest of moderate size, and the dead grass is densely spread one layer after another, which is already as tall as Lin Ye.
It seems to have started very early, and this is where the oviraptorosaurs hatched their dinosaur eggs.
The oviraptorosaurs seemed to come here every week, slowly walking into the quarry and carefully placing a total of ten dinosaur eggs into the grass nest. It looks like these days are the breeding season for oviraptorosaurs.
Something seems wrong. Lin Ye remembered very clearly that these egg stealing dragons had a total of six waves, counting this time it was the seventh wave, what about the previous dinosaur eggs?
After putting the dinosaur eggs back in the haystack, the oviraptors first inspected one side of the quarry, and then seven oviraptors left the quarry. Only the last oviraptorosaur was left crouched down, leaning against the grass nest and guarding the dinosaur eggs.
Hiding behind the stones, Lin Ye poked out his head and looked around, and found that there were no trees nearby, only a few crooked melon cracked jujube trees growing out of the cracks in the stones three hundred meters away.
Without the cover of grass, these dinosaur eggs are easy to spot.
Are these oviraptorosaurs stupid? Exposing dinosaur eggs to a place where there are no trees or grass to cover them. Lin Ye thought in his heart.
At this moment, the message of the task system sounded:
Requirements: Find the hatching ground of the oviraptor in the discovered area, and [protect the dinosaur eggs] from attack for three days. ”
"Mission Reward: One draw on the small wheel.
Failure Condition: Failure to meet the mission requirements, resulting in the destruction of the dinosaur egg. ”
Then, before Lin Ye could react, the task had already begun.
"Ding! The mission has been activated! The countdown begins!"
Once you've activated the main quest, you'll have to stay the course. If the dinosaur egg is destroyed, the quest will be declared a failure, the main quest will be invalidated, and the reward will not be obtained.
In that case, let's get started!
Lin Ye took a deep breath, he saw that the dinosaur eggs were now protected by the oviraptorosaurus, so he took advantage of the dawn to take a look around the neighborhood to see what the danger factors were.
