Evolution from the crocodile

Lu Chen didn't know that the video of him fighting against the gray wolves had caused an uproar on the Internet.

But he knew very well that no matter in his previous life or in this world, humans were the most powerful creatures on the planet.

With his current strength, he simply cannot compete with humans who possess various modern tools.

So be careful and you won’t go too far…

After being discovered, he immediately decided to leave quickly with his three crocodile companions and the magpie, just like the first time at Willow Lake. Of course, the remaining high-quality wild boar meat was not discarded, but was dragged forward by Lu Chen.

In the evening, they traveled more than 200 miles down the river and arrived near the big banyan tree.

This... is also the location of the original cave.

It was in the nearby waters that Lu Chen and several crocodile brothers and sisters spent the most difficult time. At that time, he was less than one meter long and weighed just over eight kilograms. Any carnivore could kill him.

In just over half a year, Lu Chen has grown to become the dominant player in the Tiannan Mountain Reserve.

Now that he saw the cave under the banyan tree again, Lu Chen couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

Subconsciously, he moved his limbs and climbed ashore.

Still twenty or thirty meters away from the cave, I smelled a strange smell coming from nearby.

Apparently, it was already occupied by other beasts.

Judging from the smell, it is most likely a pig badger.

This kind of animal is the 猹 that Mr. Xun wrote in his article about Zhou in his previous life. He likes to occupy the caves of other animals to live in. An ordinary pig badger can weigh twenty to thirty kilograms, and it is considered a good food.

However, Lu Chen had several hundred kilograms of wild boar meat here, enough to last for several days, so there was no need to hunt for the time being.

What's more, with his current size, he can no longer get into the cave.

After a brief rest in front of the cave, they continued on their way and rested in the mangroves downstream at night.

The tall and lush mangroves are densely covered with roots, branches and branches, making it extremely difficult to travel through both water and water. For Lu Chen, this place was an excellent hiding place.

And it's only a few miles away from the sea. If anything goes wrong, you can immediately turn around and go into the sea.

He planned to rest there for a few days and eat all the wild boar before leaving. After all, it is inconvenient to carry food with you during a long-distance migration, and it can also easily attract the attention of predatory creatures in the sea.

It was calm all morning, and several crocodiles were hiding in the woods to bask in the sun.

It was not until noon that Lu Chen suddenly heard the sound of a drone in the distance. Looking up, I saw a black spot appearing in the sky thousands of meters away, and its destination was in the direction of the mangroves.

He hurriedly let out a low roar and led several crocodiles to quickly disappear under the water.

Soon, the sound of propeller fluctuations in the river was sensed.

Lu Chen swam slowly and lurked under a jungle near the main river.

The human voices on the ship came clearly.

I hope we can find traces of a few crocodiles before other anchors do, otherwise thousands of dollars in boat rental fees will be wasted...

Don't worry, Brother Lu. According to the information I searched last night, crocodiles generally live near the estuary, so our search from here is more likely than other anchors. Besides, this boat is also equipped with the latest fish detector. Weapons and equipment also have an advantage...

Well, let's start broadcasting now.

…

Sure enough, it was for myself.

Listening to the conversation of several people on the boat, Lu Chen was extremely glad that he left immediately.

If we were half a day later, we would definitely be stuck in the mountains.

When he heard that the other fishing boat was equipped with a fish detector, Lu Chen was startled and wanted to turn around and leave, but then stopped. The mangrove forest where he was hiding now was more than a hundred meters away from the ship, and should be far beyond the detection range.

Otherwise, those humans would have screamed.

Of course, maybe the other party's guess just now was just casual talk, and he didn't think that the crocodile really lived in the estuary. So I didn't detect it carefully and missed the last opportunity.

Lu Chen still liked the title Dragon King very much.

Over the next two days, a wild boar weighing more than 300 kilograms was devoured by several crocodiles.

Lu Chen did not stay any longer and once again took a few crocodiles to migrate southward along the shallow sea area. During the whole process, the black spots flashed their wings and flew in the sky to follow closely.

This magpie must have seen the sea for the first time. He was very curious about everything in front of him and flew around from time to time.

When he got tired of flying, the little guy rested on the crocodile's broad and thick back.

With Lu Chen's current fighting ability and size, he would be able to fight even if he encounters ferocious ocean predators. So this time he led several crocodile brothers and sisters to migrate long distances. They were no longer as fearful as before, but instead floated on the water with a swagger and swam slowly along the ocean current.

Thousands of meters high in the sky, a loud cry sounded.

A giant bird flapped its wings and circled, its sharp eyes staring at all the movements on the sea. Its gray-black wingspan is nearly two meters, and its snow-white tail feathers are extremely bright under the sunlight.

This is an adult white-tailed sea eagle. Although its size is not as exaggerated as the famous bald eagle, it is still one of the dominant figures in the sky.

Fish, wild ducks, geese, rats, hares, roe deer, etc. are all their food.

This guy had been hovering on the water for half an hour and found no delicious food.

Finally... it saw a black and white bird resting on a piece of driftwood on the sea.

The eyes of the white-tailed sea eagle are full of excitement, and their sight is completely attracted by the prey. So much so that I didn't even notice that it was not driftwood, but an animal's back.

When the sea eagle launches an attack, it can gallop at a speed of more than 300 kilometers per hour.

This speed is even faster than the high-speed rail.

In a flash, the distance of several thousand meters was covered.

Chacha... Seeing the huge black shadow covering its head, the magpie finally sensed danger and screamed in horror.

The white-tailed sea eagle, who was about to start hunting, finally realized that something was wrong. The place where the waterfowl stands is not wood, but the back of some kind of animal.

There is danger... The big bird hurriedly flapped its wings and wanted to fly into the sky.

Unfortunately, it’s too late!

Crash... Lu Chen, who was next to him, suddenly jumped out of the water and flew more than three meters away. The bloody mouth opened wide and swallowed this guy.

Initially, the monkeys in the hot spring valley didn't notice anything unusual about their crocodile neighbors.

After all, they are often out hunting these days.

One day, two days...until the four crocodiles were not seen returning for several days in a row, and the monkey group began to gradually become commotion.

These guys have become accustomed to Lu Chen's protection, and now that he has disappeared, they instinctively feel uneasy.

Jin Dian even left the monkey group alone and ran for dozens of miles to the vicinity of the river mouth cave.

Here he caught the scent of four crocodiles and the magpie lingering. The little guy thought he had found each other and squeaked loudly with excitement.

Then he stretched out his little paw, with an expectant expression on the monkey's face.

Usually, as long as I call like this a few times, magpies will appear and eat the delicious bugs in their claws.

But today it barked for a long time and the black spot never came.

Jin Dian hesitated for a moment, then followed the scent again downstream.

Run all the way to the outskirts of the mangrove forest, where the smell completely disappears.

The little guy stood on a big rock on the cliff by the sea, staring blankly at the rough sea, feeling very lost...
