Become a sea squirt larva and eat a brain first

Chapter 57: Bats sleep hanging upside down on a tree. Won't they fall down?

Chen Mu flapped his wings and soared along the coast, looking for his next target through his conscious vision.

Soon, Chen Mu saw his next target.

It was a group of creatures that looked a bit like crows, but they were not birds.

Instead, they were a group of dark bats.

Groups of bats were hanging upside down on the branches.

Chen Mu flapped his wings and landed on the big tree next to him, staring at the groups of bats not far away.

There were a lot of bats, and groups of bats were making babbling sounds.

Chen Mu wanted to hunt them, but there was a problem.

These guys were hanging upside down on the branches.

When sea eagles hunt, their weapons are claws.

As a white-bellied sea eagle, if Chen Mu wanted to catch them, he would just fly over and raise his claws in front of him to catch them.

But the problem was that these bats were hanging upside down, and above the bats were branches. If he caught these bats with his claws, at his speed, he would hit the branches.

I guess he would be stunned by then.

"In other words, if you want to hunt this thing, you need to wait until these bats fly up before you can catch them?" Chen Mu said to himself: "It's really troublesome. It would be great if I could use the control ability, so I could just let them come and die."

Unfortunately, I can only think about it. This task limits the control ability. It can be used, but if it is used, it probably doesn't count.

"Why do these bats sleep upside down... If they don't sleep upside down, wouldn't it be much easier for me?"

Bats are the only mammals that have evolved the ability to fly, and they are also one of the few animals that can sleep upside down.

Unlike birds, bats lack the ability to take off from the ground.

The wings of bats are actually a layer of membrane connecting the forelimbs to the body. Humans call it a wing hand. This thing is just a layer of membrane, which is not as good as the wings of birds full of muscles and feathers, so the power is very low, which reduces the ability of bats to take off from the ground.

In addition, bats are mammals, and their weight is heavier than that of birds, which makes it more difficult to take off.

Some winged insects can use their powerful jumping ability to jump into the air and take off.

As for bats, the muscles of their legs are very underdeveloped, so it is difficult for them to jump, let alone jump into the air.

Therefore, it is extremely difficult for bats to take off. If they are on the ground, they can only climb, climb to a high place, and then jump down to take off.

The advantage of sleeping upside down is that you can get the initial power of flying when you fall.

Chen Mu was thinking about how to deal with this thing in front of him.

"When it sleeps, will it lose its claws and fall down?"

"Impossible." Chen Mu muttered to himself. Although he didn't know what was going on, according to Chen Mu's common sense, don't even think about it.

"Bats sleep on trees, how can they lose their grip? We can only think of other ways."

Under normal circumstances, people's hands are open when they are relaxed, and they can only be clenched when they use their muscles.

Bats are also in a relaxed state when they sleep, but unlike humans, when bats are in a relaxed state, their claws are closed.

Bats have two muscles in their hind legs, one called flexor and the other called extensor.

Flexors can control the closure of claws, and extensors can control the opening of claws.

The flexors in the hind legs of bats have directly degenerated, which causes the claws to be closed in a relaxed state.

Therefore, when bats want to hold a tree trunk, they only need to use the extensor muscles to control the opening of their claws, and then relax, and the claws will grab the branches.

As long as they are in a relaxed state, the claws of the bats' hind paws are always closed.

They don't have to worry about falling because their claws can't hold firmly.

"Got it." Chen Mu thought of a way.

He flapped his wings and flew directly over.

When flying over, Chen Mu used his wings to pass over the branches of the big tree where the bats were.

There was a movement.

The bats were frightened.

One by one, they loosened their claws from the branches and flew up.

When the bats flew up, Chen Mu's eyes lit up.

He turned around and chased after the bats.

When they saw Chen Mu, the bats were frightened and flew desperately in one direction, trying to escape.

Their speed was naturally not as fast as Chen Mu's.

Chen Mu raised his claws and grabbed a bat directly.

After successfully hunting his prey, Chen Mu flapped his wings and left.

The bat was quite strong and struggled desperately under Chen Mu's claws, making chirping sounds.

Chen Mu's body was not a bat, so he naturally couldn't understand what this thing was calling.

Of course, Chen Mu didn't need to understand.

Chen Mu flew to a rock nearby and stepped on the bat.

The bat was 20 cm in size, but Chen Mu could clearly feel that it was much heavier than the crow he had caught before, although the crow was longer than it.

There are many species of bats. The species of bat that Chen Mu caught is called spectacled flying fox, also known as spectacled fruit bat, which is a bat that eats fruits and flowers.

Chen Mu stepped on the bat, but it still struggled desperately and made a chirping sound.

Pressing it, Chen Mu could feel the strength coming from the bat, which was much stronger than the crow before.

Chen Mu didn't care about this. He directly pecked off the bat's neck with his hook-like beak.

The bat's body was shaking and blood was gushing out.

Its body is still struggling.

Chen Mu directly ate the bat's body one bite at a time.

"The mission is completed two-tenths of the way."

Halfway through eating, Chen Mu heard the sound coming from the system.

Two out of ten? In other words, there are eight flying animals left.

Suddenly, at this time.

"brush!"

The sound of wings cutting through the air came from nearby.

"Flash!"

Chen Mu's body disappeared instantly and came five meters away.

I saw a white-bellied sea eagle appearing where Chen Mu was originally. It missed the attack. It was stunned for a moment, then went down, grabbed the remaining body of the bat with its claws, glanced at Chen Mu, and then flapped Wings, turn around and run.

This is the second time Chen Mu has been attacked by the same kind of people.

But this time, Chen Mu knew without asking why the white-bellied sea eagle attacked him. This guy was robbing Chen Mu of food!

White-bellied sea eagles attack similar species for mates, food, and territory.

The reason why this white-bellied sea eagle suddenly attacked Chen Mu was obviously for food.

"If the sea eagle doesn't show its power, do you think I'm a sand sculpture?" Chen Mu was angry: "The third flying animal is you!"

As he spoke, he flapped his wings and pounced towards the white-bellied sea eagle.

"Gigantic!" Chen Mu doubled in size.

The sharp claws grabbed directly at the white-bellied sea eagle!

The white-bellied sea eagle turned around and saw Chen Mu. The moment it saw Chen Mu, its pupils dilated. In its pupils, you could see the huge claws getting bigger and bigger.
