Chapter 67 Devil Frog Literature

The abyss group where the devil frog is located is worthy of the name, and I can tell you about other ancient creatures that are also in the abyss group.

Devil frogs, Tyrannosaurus rex, Ankylosaurus, and Triceratops are basically the top carnivores and herbivores in the world.

The largest flying creature since the formation of the planet in the sky: Fengshen pterosaur

There are overlord-level mosasaurs in the sea.

Abyss difficulty is no joke.

The first fossil of the devil frog is actually two legs, the thigh, the calf and the incomplete length of the metacarpal.

Because the bones were intertwined and messy during the formation of the fossil, paleontologists would not recognize the creature for a while. They held the 5-meter-long thigh bone and looked at it for a long time, thinking it was a prehistoric giant.

It wasn't until the fossils of the two legs were cleaned up that it was known that this might be an oversized frog.

"5-meter frog thigh, tsk tsk."

Thinking of spicy bullfrog and other dishes, Yu Xian couldn't help swallowing.

Who can stand this.

5 meters is only the thigh of the devil frog, and the length of the calf + sole is longer.

Considering that Tyrannosaurus rex can grow to 14 meters level, the devil frog should indeed be bigger.

But the legs with a total length of more than 10 meters are difficult to move even if they are folded.

Today's frogs are able to explode several times faster than humans of the same size, mainly because of their small size and light skeleton.

If the frog is enlarged to the size of a human, the original muscle ratio is simply not enough.

Yu Xian continued to read the follow-up papers, and gradually felt something was wrong.

After the first pair of devil frog leg bones, no new devil frog fossils were found in the paleontological circle for two or three months.

Too few, as top predators, there are not so few fossils.

The reason explained by scholars is that the devil frog has the characteristics of frogs, with large meat and thin bones, so it is not easy to preserve as a fossil.

“Makes sense, but still too little”

According to Yu Xian's estimate, if one thing falls one thing, there should be some dinosaur that suppressed the devil frog, otherwise there should be more fossils of such a strong man who preyed on Tyrannosaurus rex.

Two and a half months after the first discovery of the leg bones of the devil frog, paleontologists found more complete fossils in the Abyss Formation.

The completeness this time is quite astonishing, even including traces of soft tissues such as skin.

Looking at the fossil photos, the plump devil frog has a sharp outline, and a monarch tyrannosaurus rex is wrapped in its abdominal cavity.

Such a group of discoveries contributed 77% completeness of devil frog fossils and 70% completeness of tyrannosaurus rex fossils in one breath.

With such a complete sample, paleontologists have analyzed the action patterns of devil frogs.

Their jumping ability must be weaker than the current frogs. After all, their weight is obvious. They should be more inclined to the action function of toads, mainly crawling and short-distance burst jumping.

"Well, the speed value is so-so, meaning it has displacement skills."

Devil frogs hunt with their tongues.

Unlike modern frogs whose tongue sticks to worms, the tongue of the devil frog can strangle its prey like a python.

The tongue of a frog is many times longer than the body, and the tongue of the devil frog is stronger and stubby, and it is almost as long as the body when turned out.

That's nearly 20 meters away
Violently advancing, the thick tongue twisted the neck of the Tyrannosaurus rex. No matter how strong the bite force of the Tyrannosaurus rex was, it could not bite the strangled part.

Just like humans can't bite the necklace around the neck.

Humans have hands, and Tyrannosaurus rex's forelimbs are notoriously "small hands."

With a body size of more than ten meters and a forelimb of less than one meter, he couldn't even touch his own chin. In terms of the strength of his forelimb, he couldn't wrestle with the devil frog's tongue.

Strangling and devouring prey, this is the best hunting method of devil frogs.

The loose oral cartilage can also open wide like a snake, swallowing huge prey.

Eat a full meal and lie flat for a month.

Thanks to this, the Tyrannosaurus rex was not hunted on a large scale.

Looking at the new research, a devil frog and ankylosaurus died together.

The tongue strangled the ankylosaurus, and the devil frog devoured it, but the hard shell and tail hammer of the ankylosaurus could not be digested at all, so it could only be spit out.

Modern frogs can turn their stomachs inside out to clean after eating something wrong;
The devil frog didn't have this skill, and was stuck in the abdomen by the armor of the armored dragon, resulting in death.

"Good guy, the Ankylosaurus and the Devil Frog died together, and their combat effectiveness was the same, which means that the Ankylosaurus also beat the Tyrannosaurus rex, right? The marketing account is not deceiving."

With a few jokes, Yu Xian had a more detailed understanding of the devil frog.

It's late at night, wake up after a nap, and watch it the next day.

There are not only devil frogs in the Abyss Formation, paleontologists have also discovered early devil frogs on the continent where Tianyi Kingdom is located.

The appearance of the devil frog during the Jurassic period has not changed, but it is smaller.

This fossil is a baby stegosaurus swallowed by a devil frog, which is worse than Ankylosaurus.

In the process of strangling and devouring the stegosaurus, the devil frog was disemboweled from the inside by the sharp blade and tail thorn on the back of the stegosaurus, and died of bleeding profusely.

After spending four days, Yu Xian heaved a sigh of relief after reading the final paper.

Soul power remaining 66%
Soul power is really much more durable than before.

Today, I saw the sunset in the morning, took notes and thought in the middle, and only consumed [-]% of it.

As Yu Xian used the power of his blood and the dragon-seeking map to participate in battles and various life-and-death tests, the specific value of soul power increased, but it was still displayed as a percentage.

Through the gaps between the crowded buildings in the old block, you can see the half-covered sunset in the distance, digesting the specific information of the devil frog in your idle mind.

It is indeed strong, but it cannot deal with food with many carapaces and spikes.

Moreover, devil frogs cannot go to the sea. The reason why they are distributed on different continents is that some continents have not been separated in ancient times, and there are also reasons for the formation of land bridges due to the decrease in sea level.

In the end, many scholars, including the Beifu Research Institute and top universities, put forward similar guesses as Yu Xian.

There must be something else overpowering the devil frog, otherwise it would be invincible as long as it avoids eating dangerous armored dinosaurs.

The devil frog suppressed by something. Everything is unknown, just waiting for paleontologists to decrypt it.

"Hmm~"

Yu Xian stretched his waist, relaxed and happy.

After learning a lesson from Wu Qianshan, papers on Chipterosaur fossils were published normally.

Two months later, "History Goshen" and "Tianyi Museum" will also publish Yu Xian's achievements on the long-armed Hunyuanlong.

Gradually, he became famous in the academic circle, and his life was high-spirited.

"This is life."

【The world's great wonders】

"puff--"

After taking a sip of tea, Yu Xian sprayed it far away, and curses came from downstairs immediately.

"What's going on upstairs?! The water is splashing randomly, do you have a sense of public morality!"

"Sorry sorry."
