Chapter Seventy-One: Conjecture, Strong Correlation

Dream Forest.

The one-horned white wolf possessed by Xu Yunshu is the only fourth-level predator in this area, which makes the white wolf live very comfortably without possession.

When he returned to the Dream Forest, the white wolf was resting in the shade of a tree.

Xu Yunshu moved the white wolf's body and looked into the distance.

It stands to reason that it is more appropriate to ask Guo Xiaojie to do the investigation of the Dream Forest, she is a real detective master.

However, Guo Xiaojie can't be split in half by herself, and she is also responsible for checking the number of invasive species in the real world.

Although there is no ant colony to control, she can already control small animals after she is promoted to level three.

Guo Xiaojie can use burrowing masters such as rats to search for pupa.

In comparison, it is impossible for Xu Yunshu to dig holes everywhere on the ground of reality.

So you can only come and explore the Dream Forest.

Zhao Jingchuan still respects Xu Yunshu's opinions, and he accepts these proposals in their entirety.

As a leader, it is a virtue not to give ideas, but to respect the opinions of experts.

Xu Yunshu is very glad that Zhao Jingchuan is this kind of person.

The chrysalis was re-locked in a safe and escorted to a first-tier city with a large laboratory.

Professor Xue will accompany him, and top experts in molecular biology, genetics, biochemistry, microbiology and other fields in the capital will also quickly arrive to conduct research on the pupae in secrecy.

According to Guo Xiaojie, the dream forest area where they have been living has a dense number of chrysalis underground.

If this is the case, then digging down the pit on the spot should be able to spot them.

Xu Yunshu strengthened his forelimbs and finger claws, and buried his head in digging pits.

The physique of the fourth-level predator should not be underestimated, and without using all his strength, only half a minute later, Xu Yunshu dug a hole with a depth of more than two meters, and successfully trapped himself in the hole.

It doesn't matter, Xu Yunshu can jump out with just a slight jump.

He found the chrysalis he saw in the real world.

This kind of pupae are buried deep in the soil two meters underground, just like Guo Xiaojie stated, the pupa that lurks vertically in the ground are densely arranged, and he dug up six of them in just one pit that can only accommodate him.

By analogy, how much of this stuff should be hidden in a large area of soil in a corner of the forest?

The priority for now was to leave the area he was familiar with and wander elsewhere to see if it was a specialty of the Dream Forest or if it was only hidden in this area.

Xu Yunshu's location is on the sunny side of the mountain range, and he defines this direction as Shannan.

On the south side of the mountain, after crossing the forest where Xu Yunshu lives, and crossing a gurgling stream, you can reach the extremely high altitude Chilong Valley, and he saw the forest landform at the top of the valley.

Further south, through the deep and dark valley floor, you will reach the habitat of the giant colorful birds.

That terrifying beast had brought Xu Yunshu an endless sense of oppression.

To the east, there is a gradual uphill process, and the place where he dwells is the shortest part of the mountain range, from which the peaks gradually steepen, until as far as the eye can see, the highest peak of the whole mountain range.

Beyond a certain altitude, the trees no longer grow, which makes the distant peaks seem a little abrupt, and the heavy snow covers the peaks, reminding all living beings of its majesty.

Heading west, to the lower reaches of the stream, you will see the cliff where he once slid and flew.

The corner of the forest that Xu Yunshu is familiar with, the map he remembers in his mind, is such a scene.

He focused on the base of the cliff, the Chilong Valley, and parts of the northern slope after crossing the mountains.

If this kind of chrysalis exists in these places, he will move south.

And you must be cautious, and run away immediately if the situation is not right.

Such an exploration is a must.

If things are really as he guessed, then it is natural to plan early, explore the path early, and prepare for the future.

Xu Yunshu has never fought unprepared battles.

No matter what you choose in the future, you must have the necessary information at your disposal.

Maybe something happened in advance and finally became a lifesaver at a critical moment.

After making this decision, Xu Yunshu first returned to the bottom of the cliff.

Unlike the slightly awkward gliding of a third-level predator, Xu Yunshu, who is now a fourth-level predator, can easily stretch his limbs, spread his wider wing membrane, and fly to the bottom of the cliff more smoothly.

After digging ten pits at the bottom of the cliff, Xu Yunshu found that there were also pupae all over the place.

Next, Chilong Valley.

Xu Yunshu needs to be careful here, and the underground bamboo shoots at the passage are estimated to cover the entire valley again.

Xu Yunshu was already a fourth-level predator, and he didn't have much demand for bamboo shoots underground, but with the idea of coming and going, he ploughed the ground again, which could be regarded as replenishing the energy consumed by running around.

Conventions leave traps at the passage.

Although I don't think this trap will be of much use to me, others may be able to use it.

Even if it's a farm, it's useful.

The northern slope of the mountains.

This is the place where Xu Yunshu has never been.

Despite being relatively low, the target of the comparison is the towering mountain to the east, and in fact, the mountain range in the corner of the forest is also very steep.

This significantly restricts the migration of predators.

Only those possessed by dreams with a clear purpose will become curious about the north of the mountains and try to climb over them.

This is the area where Yan Yixian didn't have time to cause trouble.

After Xu Yunshu turned over the mountain, he saw a third-level rock leopard, which was stepping on the steep mountain wall because of his arrival, and fled quickly into the distance.

The hierarchical suppression of the food chain will cause the wild instincts to react quickly.

He has no interest in hunting, let alone a predator who can fly up walls.

The northern slope of the mountain is steeper than the soothing southern slope.

Xu Yunshu took 100 meters as a benchmark and dug a pit to check the situation underground.

The end result is – yes, yes, yes, yes.

The coverage of the chrysalis is much larger than Xu Yunshu imagined.

Just when he thought that he should be thinking too much, this chrysalis was just a basic creature in the Dream Forest, he finally came to a place where there were no chrysalis.

Xu Yunshu looked back, and the top of the mountain range he had climbed over was already far away from him.

He went into the distance again, and verified it again.

The final result confirmed his suspicions.

This strange pupa covers a large area, but it is not a common phenomenon in the Dream Forest.

Xu Yunshu needs more evidence.

This exploration took him a full ten hours.

The day and night of the Dream Forest and the real world are just the opposite, Xu Yunshu is running around in the Dream Forest, from the stars and the moon to the rising sun.

When he is in a hurry, he will also hunt to replenish energy when he encounters suitable prey.

This also gave Xu Yunshu a general idea of the coverage of the chrysalis.

It only existed in the corner of the dream forest where Xu Yunshu was.

Is there a more direct connection between them and the absence of higher-level predators in this corner of the forest?

Without sufficient evidence, Xu Yunshu will not make inferences.

But as long as there is a little clue, this idea lingers in Xu Yunshu's heart like a bone appendage.

I don't know how Guo Xiaojie's investigation is going in the real world.
