In the midst of a sea of snow-covered trees.

A behemoth covered in blood-colored scales was lying on a "floating board" made of trees, "floating" on the snow.

The body carrying a pair of huge main wings and a pair of odd-shaped ailerons is easily recognizable, and the chest and abdomen, which are enlarged like birds in order to accommodate the muscle groups related to the wings and forelimb claws, nay, are more exaggerated than birds, and give the whole body an inverted triangular shape, which indicates its identity.

Di Xing glanced at his strong body, which was already more than ten meters over, and then glanced at the floating board under him.

Because of the body's metabolic efficiency, the high body temperature makes him quickly melt the snow whether he is standing or lying on the snow, and after a little nap, he finds himself sinking in the water.

Although he has blood energy that is half integrated with flesh and blood, relying on the continuous strengthening and blessing of blood energy passively, he is not afraid of cold at all, but this feeling of sinking in snow is not very good.

With a snort, the wind elemental was wrapped in a little blood energy, condensing the air flow into a blood-like red blade, cutting a furrow in the snow in front of him.

As he became more accustomed and habitual, it had almost become his instinct to forcibly recruit the wind element from the surrounding environment, and even a little arbitrary, to the point where he almost thought of doing it, and the blood energy forcibly recruited the wind element from the surroundings at the same time.

But what he was more interested in than this was the prey brought back by the nest dragons of the Dragon's Lair Legion.

In this vast forest, which is almost entirely occupied by trees except for a few roads, the biodiversity can be said to be ..... Extremely low.

I don't know if it's because of the influence of energy such as "life force" and "element", but there seem to be an unusually large number of "omnivorous" creatures in this world.

Purely herbivorous organisms are very few.

Including the horned nose horse, the horned nose horse is actually omnivorous, but it is more plant-fed, and some smaller creatures will also be eaten when they encounter it.

However, it is not surprising that many so-called "herbivorous" dinosaurs would not refuse to eat insects that they nibble on from the leaves and grass.

If you want to play the extreme judgment of "vegan vegetarian", many herbivorous animals familiar with the previous life of the earth will be transferred to the omnivorous classification.

Perhaps because of the omnivorous nature of the hornnose horse, the area near the mountains where the dragon's nest is located has no larger predators in the forest except for the hornnose horse.

Not only near the dragon's nest, but also in the first place, it was not expected that the ecological diversity here would be so bad after going so far to the north.

No, it's not right, and it can't be said to be bad.

In this seemingly boundless forest, he found seventeen or eighteen "species" of hornnose horses.

It is true that there is no strict way to distinguish between types.

However, the hornnose horse with fangs is not the same species as the hornnose horse without fangs, and he can be sure that it is not a dioecious.

Horned horses, which have prominent and sharp claws and can climb trees with lightness, are they not a species?

If we follow the way the species were distinguished from previous lives, the protists of this world seem to produce new species quite quickly.

But there is no substantial geographical isolation, and they can reproduce with each other, and perhaps they can only be counted as subspecies?

Whether it is a morphological or isolated species, or a way of judging mate identification or phylogenetic species, there are standards, but the local line does not have the energy and interest to do it at present.

After he transformed several hornnosed horses with very different appearances and found that they had not fundamentally changed, Jixing also lost interest in them.

In addition to the horned nose horse, there is a creature that regenerates over time, described in the commentary as a troll, and is tentatively referred to as a "regenerative troll", whose recovery ability is quite exaggerated, and even feels faster than the speed at which he can actively use blood to heal his wounds.

The flaw of the Wyverns, who are unable to fight for a short time due to damage to their wings, may find a breakthrough in this regeneration troll.

Not only Wyverns, but also nest dragons who need melee combat and can serve as the front row, you can try to see if you can get a tag from here.

In addition, what surprised him was the bird dragons, that is, the prey captured by the feathered dragons.

A glance at its sliced abdomen showed that the thing that looked like a big fluttering moth was a little too far from an insect.

There's something strange about its abilities.

First of all, it can change body color, and even the basic structure of flesh and bones on the surface of the body.

It has the ability to "shapeshift".

Seeing this ability, a lot of ideas popped up in an instant.

He was thinking about one thing, whether he could form a new label by directly changing the structure.

If so, wouldn't he need it..... Oh, probably not, look at the description of the label, this ability to transform and change color, you need to obtain the target's flesh and vitality before you can use it.

In addition, it can also connect itself to other parts such as leaves and roots of trees, similar to the green leaf sea beetle, and use the functional organs of the tree.

How so?

Graft?

However, the description in the label is closer to parasitism, but this ability, no matter how you look at it, looks like grafting.

It's a pity that his nest dragons have only encountered three such creatures, there are not enough samples, and it is not very stable and cold here, and he has no intention of evolving on the spot.

But.....

The earth is a bit strange, the energy organs in their bodies, that is, the organs that focus on storing and generating life force, have some things in common with the organs of the group of shape-shifting elves that the nest dragon got from the desert. Eight Chinese Net

Of course, it wasn't the type of "I think it's like, so there's definitely a connection between them", but it still made him a little confused.

He used to think that those "birds and beasts" might have evolved from some kind of beasts, and it was not casually mentioned, but those wild beasts with claws and wings, without organs such as air sacs, and it can be clearly seen that there are many differences from birds on the bones.

And, more importantly, there were females among those birds and beasts, and he discovered some important characteristics of mammals.

Is it the convergent evolution of the world? Di Xing was a little confused.

Although I don't want to mention the word "advanced" in biological evolution, in previous lives, some studies believed that marsupials were actually more "advanced", and that the "mammal" related characteristics were earlier and more primitive.

However, he didn't worry too much about whether this research was right or not, the field of paleontology is like this, a new discovery may overturn decades or even hundreds of years of accumulation, maybe not long after he crossed into this world, the paleontosphere on the other side of the earth overturned several mainstream routes.

In the new world, all kinds of environmental conditions have changed, and he still keeps to the "tradition", and he doesn't even do the specific analysis of specific problems according to local conditions, and he doesn't even play diode-like one-size-fits-all simplification, which is not in line with his character.

In the middle of his thoughts, Di Xing suddenly felt something, and got up from the "bed board" made of tall trees, Di Xing spread his wings slightly, and walked in the direction where a group of nest dragons gathered.

Although he can fly, however, with his exaggerated size, he will disturb many prey when he flies, causing the nest dragon to reduce the hunting results, and he does not fly indiscriminately.

In the direction he was heading, a group of bladed dragons, armored dragons, and feathered dragons were constantly carrying wood to the underground lair dug by the abyssal dragons—

This is the dragon's nest he is going to build.

To return to the dragon's nest over there, it is a bit too troublesome, and it is necessary to build a sub-dragon's nest as an outpost, whether it is reconnaissance or material transfer, and long-distance travel.

You have to get more prey.

Also, we'll have to see if there are any races that are suitable for the cold hours of winter, and see if we can pick a label from them.

He wasn't afraid of the cold, but other nest dragons might not be able to withstand it.

"Brother Shen!"

"Hmm!"

Shen Changqing walked on the road, and when he met someone he knew well, he would say hello to each other or nod his head.

But it doesn't matter who it is.

There was no superfluous expression on everyone's face, as if they were very indifferent to everything.

on this.

Shen Changqing is used to it.

Because this is the Demon Suppression Division, it is an institution that maintains the stability of Great Qin, and its main responsibility is to kill demons and monsters, and of course there are some other side jobs.

Arguably.

In the Demon Suppression Division, everyone has a lot of blood on their hands.

When a person is accustomed to seeing life and death, then he will become indifferent to many things.

When he first came to this world, Shen Changqing was a little uncomfortable, but over time he got used to it.

The Demon Suppression Division is huge.

The people who can stay in the Demon Suppression Division are all powerful masters, or people who have the potential to become masters.

Shen Changqing belongs to the latter.

Among them, the Demon Suppression Division is divided into two professions, one is the town guard and the other is the demon exterminator.

Anyone who enters the Demon Suppression Division starts with the lowest level of demon slayer.

Then step by step, he is expected to become a town guard.

Shen Changqing's predecessor was a trainee demon slayer in the Demon Suppression Division, and he was also the lowest level of the demon slayer envoys.

Have memories of the predecessor.

He is also very familiar with the environment of the Demon Suppression Division.

It didn't take long for Shen Changqing to stop in front of an attic.

Unlike other places full of slaughter, the attic here seems to stand out from the crowd, and in the bloody Demon Suppression Division, it presents a different tranquility.

At this time, the attic door is open, and there are occasional people entering and exiting.

Shen Changqing only hesitated for a moment, and then stepped in.

Access to the attic.

The environment has changed in vain.

A burst of ink fragrance mixed with the faint smell of blood came to his face, making his brow furrow instinctively, but quickly stretched.

The smell of blood on everyone's body in the Demon Suppression Division is almost impossible to clean.
