Evolution from the crocodile

The two guys were having a tryst on the water, sometimes combing each other's feathers, and sometimes making cheerful sounds.

They didn't notice at all that there was a long black shadow on the bottom of the water, swimming slowly towards the reed marsh.

The whole process was silent and without any ripples.

Covered by dense reeds, Lu Chen quietly appeared at the bottom of the water behind the swan. The water here is very clear. If you continue to get closer, it will be easily discovered. The only way to launch a surprise attack is to launch a surprise attack.

With a crash, the dark and huge body suddenly jumped out.

He bit into the neck of one swan with a bloody mouth, and at the same time, he swung out his sharp claws and grabbed the other one.

Gah...

There was a shrill scream, goose feathers flew everywhere, and a few wisps of blood appeared on the water surface nearby.

So it is said: show affection and die quickly.

The entire process from striking out to dragging the prey to the bottom of the water lasts no more than five seconds. Coupled with the cover of the reeds, the group of swans dozens of meters away did not notice the inexplicable disappearance of two of their kind and continued to swim happily.

Lu Chen brought the prey to deep water, tore it into pieces with his sharp claws, and then swallowed it into his belly.

Whooper swan, genus Cygnus, subfamily Anselidae, can provide 51.3 energy points

On the system panel, prey data is clearly displayed.

Two whooper swans weigh about thirty kilograms, which means that one kilogram of flesh and blood can produce less than 2 points of energy, which is completely incomparable with the giant golden eagle before.

As for the taste of swan meat, Lu Chen said it was no different from other waterfowl.

After filling his stomach, he did not leave in a hurry, but set his sights on the swans further away.

These guys have obviously not been severely beaten by society, and they dare to swim in the water with arrogance, which is a great advantage to themselves.

No matter how small the mosquitoes are, they are still meat. There are about twenty mosquitoes, which can provide hundreds of energy points.

In addition, Lu Chen also discovered a mud swamp on the shore. The water and grass there were turned over in a mess, exuding a pungent stench. At a glance, it was obvious that they were traces of wild boar pee and mud.

This large lake is almost 150 miles away from the valley where Lu Chen and the three crocodiles live. It would take at least half a day to go back and forth, which is too much trouble.

After exploring the surrounding environment, Lu Chen decided to stay here for a few days.

As for the safety of Crocodile Boss and the others, there is no need to worry about it for the time being.

He usually defecates at the entrance of the valley, which is a special scent mark that should deter many wild animals from approaching.

Therefore, in a short period of time, as long as the smell does not dissipate, Crocodile Boss and the others are safe.

What's more, the combat effectiveness of the three little guys has also improved exponentially compared to more than a month ago. When encountering an attack from an ordinary beast, there is no problem in protecting yourself.

Even if you are defeated, you can still climb a tree to escape, or escape into a cave into the lake.

In addition, there is a group of macaques living outside the valley. Once a large carnivore breaks in, they will definitely warn you immediately and will not repeat the clouded leopard's surprise attack.

After making up his mind, Lu Chen immediately found a hidden place by the lake to dig a hole.

It is winter now, and the temperature in the mountains at night is about ten degrees.

After Lu Chen evolved to level 3, his adaptability to the external environment has been greatly improved, but the temperature is still a bit too low. Why suffer if you can spend the night comfortably?

Just do whatever comes to mind, pick a location, and start working immediately. Two thick and powerful claws turned into excavator buckets, waving left and right.

After all, this is the fourth time Lu Chen has dug a cave.

Rustling... The body pushed forward quickly, and the soil behind it kept rising, and soon piled up into a hill.

In just two hours, Lu Chen dug a cave more than three meters long. The structure is no different from the previous ones. It has a small mouth and a big belly. It is inconspicuous from the outside, but the space inside is very spacious, enough for Lu Chen to turn around and move around.

When the sky darkened, he followed the scent and appeared in the reed marsh again.

Through the dim moonlight, we quickly found the group of snow-white figures. One by one, they inserted their heads into their wings and fell asleep quietly.

Not far away, there are two swans on guard duty. Their eyes are constantly scanning the surrounding darkness, and if there is any slight movement, they will sound a warning sound.

The lush reeds provided Lu Chen with good cover, but their traveling speed was also greatly restricted. When crawling, if the movement is slightly larger, it will touch the reed pole and make a sound.

In order not to alarm the sentry swans, he could only slow down his movements.

When he crawled to more than ten meters away, he suddenly jumped out...

***

The weather today is good.

Feeling that the outside temperature was rising, Lu Chen slowly got out of the cave. The front and rear limbs were stretched and kicked in opposite directions, and the spine was pressed down, like a feline, stretching long.

Then, start working hard for a new day.

Lu Chen sniffed and sniffed the surrounding air, but couldn't smell the smell of swans.

This made him a little regretful. It seemed that after last night's beating, these guys finally realized that the lake was not safe and fled to other places overnight.

The remaining few hundred energy points just flew away.

Hey... there's a snake smell nearby!

After crawling forward for some distance, Lu Chen finally saw a new prey on a large rock dozens of meters away.

An adult Burmese python with a body length of nearly seven meters has large stripes scattered on its brown-black scales, giving off a jade-like color under the sunlight.

According to a rough estimate, this guy weighs almost a hundred kilograms and is hovering on the top of the stone to bask in the sun.

The first time he saw the other party, Lu Chen immediately had the idea of ​​​​taking a detour.

Then he stopped again... He was afraid that he was no longer the boy he was before, no, he was a little crocodile.

As a predator weighing more than 200 pounds, there is absolutely no need to be afraid of this guy.

It’s not like I haven’t killed Burmese pythons before, not even the reticulated python…

A rough calculation showed that not just one or two snakes died in Lu Chen's mouth.

Just do it!

Without courage, there will be no production.

Lu Chen immediately moved his limbs and swaggered slowly towards the stone.

He had no intention of hiding his body because it was useless.

Like most snakes, Burmese pythons have poor vision but a keen sense of smell. They can easily pick up prey odor particles emitted in the air within tens of meters with the help of snake cores.

His whereabouts are like fireflies in the dark night... In this case, it is better to have an honest duel between kings.

Fifty meters, forty meters, thirty meters...

Lu Chen didn't expect that until he reached 30 meters away, the Burmese python was still motionless, still lying lazily basking in the sun.

Damn...you don't take yourself seriously.

Feeling angry in his heart, Lu Chen subconsciously slowed down his pace.

Within twenty meters, this guy finally reacted.

The Burmese python's thick body stood upright and made a hissing sound.

A pair of dark green snake eyes revealed a bit of cruelty and ferocity.

Lu Chen immediately stopped, his limbs and toes slightly clasping the ground. If anything went wrong, he would immediately turn around and retreat.

As a result, half a minute after the confrontation, the Burmese python did not attack first. Instead, it turned around, climbed off the stone, and swam towards the grass in the distance...

Is this an escape?

Lu Chen was confused for a moment, and then realized that something was wrong.

This guy's crawling speed seems to be very slow and sluggish.
