Chapter 8: The Colorful Bird

The rats seemed to be consciously driving him away somewhere.

This pattern of hunting, he had seen in some books on the habits of the population, if he followed the wishes of the rats, he would definitely step into a pre-set trap somewhere.

His time was running out, as he had already sniffed more of the filthy stench of the all-snouted rat in his nose, which had come together in a haphazard manner and stimulated his brain through the olfactory nerve, making him aware of a clear fact.

If he is driven away like this, he will be forced into the rat's nest.

There are thousands of hungry all-snouted rats waiting for their prey to come to the door.

A way to get rid of the rat swarm must be found!

Xu Yunshu adapts to the ability to evolve, overclocks to strengthen his vision, and observes the surroundings on the way to escape, collecting terrain information.

His time was running out, and he had to think of a way out of it in the shortest possible time.

Looking left and right, Xu Yunshu found that the terrain of this forest was a little sloping.

To be precise, from the direction he is facing, from the right rear to the left front, the terrain has a subtle angle.

As for the east, west, north and south, Xu Yunshu could not find any reference materials to identify.

However, it is enough to know the height of the terrain.

Because in Xu Yunshu's enhanced vision, the angle of inclination will become larger and larger in the distance in front of the left, forming a continuous downward slope.

He was sure that it was definitely not the direction of the rat nest, because just to the left, more than thirty more encircled alligators had emerged from the ground, forcing him to change direction.

Xu Yunshu decided not to obey the enemy's guidance anymore, he wanted to face the encircled rat group head-on and break a bloody path.

Of course, it's stupid to be hard-hitting.

He already had an idea to take advantage of the overclocking enhancement and terrain to escape quickly.

After making up his mind, Xu Yunshu suddenly stopped.

The rats behind them were not surprised by the unusual behavior of their prey, their hunting patterns were engraved in their genes, and they were just running mechanically.

Hundreds of short-nosed rats with scarlet eyes swooped down on them, and as long as they were entangled, within a few seconds, they would turn into a pile of white bones.

The swarm of rats encircled in front of the left also surging in, seemingly forcing Xu Yunshu to choose the only way to escape.

Xu Yunshu took a deep breath, lifted the overclocking state of vision and hearing, kicked the ground with both feet, and rushed in the direction of the left front rat group, and at the same time used the ability to adapt to evolution to overclock and grow hair all over his body!

The white giant wolf was instantly covered by the wild growth of hair, turning into a pure white hairball, overclocking evolution gave the hair all over the body excellent hardness and elasticity, this super elastic hairball crushed the bloodthirsty alligator, and rolled wildly down the slope.

This is the method that Xu Yunshu came up with.

This method escapes from the hunt of mortal rats, and the effect is outstanding!

In the frantically changing perspective, he saw the rats behind him chasing frantically, but he was thrown farther and farther away, and he couldn't catch him with acceleration at all.

The threat of rat swarms is solved.

The only problem was that in order to escape quickly, Xu Yunshu's initial kinetic energy was a little too much, and after about twenty seconds, the avatar's hairball had already exceeded the limit of the initial line of sight.

Beyond the limit, the slope of the hill, which had been relatively gentle, suddenly became steeper, and he could no longer stop rolling, or even control his course, so he could only bump between the trees, which made him dizzy.

Eventually, Xu Yunshu fell into a slow-flowing stream and made a huge splash of water, which stopped the rolling momentum.

He was smashed, and after a long breath, he lifted the hair of overclocking evolution, shook the water droplets on his body, and looked back in the direction of the uphill slope.

The good news is that the rats aren't chasing him, and the bad news is that he's lost.

Before being possessed, the white wolf only discerns its surroundings by smell, and it does not take the initiative to venture out of its comfort zone.

Before Xu Yunshu left the territory, he specially made some small marks that were easy to identify in order to find his way back, but due to the attack of the black-backed short-nosed rat, he was completely lost and arrived at an extremely unfamiliar place.

In this strange forest, he felt a deep sense of insecurity.

Xu Yunshu carefully observed the surrounding environment.

It was a rare sparsely wooded area in the Dream Forest, where the babbling stream meandered into the depths of the mountains, and he saw for the first time the sun of this world, huge, warm, and emitting an orange-red light, shining on the vast forest, nourishing all living beings.

He heard a loud chirp.

Looking up, the figure covering the sky and the sun broke the tranquility of the forest, a bird with feathers flashing with colorful dazzling light rose into the air, its wings spread, and the shadow instantly covered half of the sky, and the fanning wind made Xu Yunshu unable to stand firm at all, and could only hold on to the ground with his claws to avoid the fate of being blown away by the air current.

Fortunately, the giant creature was not aiming at him, but at the mountains beyond.

As the giant bird gradually rose into the air and the wind on the ground weakened, Xu Yunshu squinted his eyes, staring at the smaller and smaller figure flying into the sky, speechless for a long time.

The beasts of this world were countless times more powerful than he had imagined.

Will one day he be able to evolve to such an extent that he will never have to jump out of the food chain and no longer worry about his life?

Xu Yunshu was a little fascinated.

The adventures of the day are clearly not over yet.

Scarlet blood water floated from above the stream, and Xu Yunshu heard a trace of blood from the tip of his nose, turned his head to look, and saw a creature corpse that looked a bit like the theropod suborder Chisauridae, slowly flowing from the upper reaches of the stream.

The bottom half of the creature was brutally destroyed, leaving only flesh and a skull, with its neck broken and connected only by a membrane.

Compared to the body size, this creature is obviously the upper individual of the food chain, and it should be higher than Xu Yunshu's current level, if you have to classify it, he was a primary predator before the promotion, and now he is a second-level predator, and so on, this galloping dragon should belong to the third-level predator.

The whole body is very fresh, and it must have just died.

Along with the creature floated down was a colorful feather.

Xu Yunshu smelled the strong smell of flesh and blood energy, he paced over, looked down at the creature, and found that there was a strange pale yellow slime hanging from its claws, and the energy contained in this slime was terrifying.

The throat of the white wolf's body purred longingly, both the creature itself and the slime on its paws, which made Xu Yunshu feel bloodthirsty excitement.

If you use the white wolf itself to hunt, you may not be able to harvest so much flesh and blood energy for half a year.

If this Chi Dragon corpse had a complete body, Xu Yunshu was confident that he could directly advance and become a third-level predator.

It's a subtle hint of its wild instincts.

It's a pity that only a third of the body is wrecked.

Xu Yunshu, who couldn't resist the temptation, lowered his head to eat, and after absorbing all the strong energy, he looked up at the position upstream.

Something must have happened somewhere upstream, and it had something to do with the colorful giant bird that had just flown away.

Standing in place and thinking for a moment, Xu Yunshu decided to take a risk, he wanted to go up the river to find the location of the incident.

This decision was made not because of curiosity, but because of the attraction of flesh and blood energy.

This is not the forest territory he is familiar with, every step is a huge challenge to his own safety, if he doesn't improve his strength soon, who knows what will happen after that?

He overclocked his sense of smell and searched for the source of the smell of blood, tracing the source of the stream upwards.

Half an hour later, Xu Yunshu found out that he had made the right bet.
