Chapter 415 Cannibalism
Alien creatures drink seawater, perhaps because it has a strong taste and can digest the salt in seawater.
The cannibalism may be because both parties happen to be part of each other's diet, but their eating behavior, like the reincarnation of hungry ghosts, seems a bit abnormal.
Whether it is a rat dragon or an ostrich dragon, their desire for food has exceeded the demand of normal creatures for food. Whether it is meat or plants, they do not choose at all, they only pursue to swallow the food into their stomachs as quickly as possible and hoard it.
.
This phenomenon often occurs in some organisms whose habitats are very harsh.
When food is scarce, they can eat as much food as they find, and then convert it into nutrients and store them in the body for consumption slowly. They can even go without eating or drinking for a long time after eating once.
Judging from the fact that both alien creatures have shown this habit and their skins have a protective earthy color, the opposite side of the passage formed by the mist of the plane is not only a primitive world, but also a place with an extremely harsh environment.
Bai Yuqi originally planned to send people to eliminate these invading alien creatures, but when he saw that they were killing each other, he simply wanted to save trouble and let them consume themselves.
But as more and more alien creatures invaded, the situation changed again.
In the process of killing each other, although their numbers became smaller and smaller, they themselves became more and more powerful and began to evolve rapidly.
Bai Yuqi saw with his own eyes that a rat dragon quickly grew from the size of a native dog to the size of a male lion.
Relying on the huge number of the group, they even killed the first group of ostriches and swallowed them all. A small number of them were killed by this giant rat dragon in a sneak attack.
As various alien creatures continued to invade, the giant rat dragon also died in cannibalism with other creatures, but soon new evolved creatures appeared.
Because almost all the creatures that invade are extremely aggressive, it is difficult for any alien creature to maintain its dominance for a long time.
For example, there is a beast about the size of a bull. It has four sharp claws and a tail with a scorpion-like tail cone. Its back has dense spine growth spurs like mane.
A huge mouth that can open almost 180 degrees is covered with clusters of fangs with three rings inside and three outside. Under the rough and thick skin like a crocodile, there is even a layer of obvious bone armor hidden.
Especially the head, which looks like it's wearing a bulletproof helmet, is very similar to Bai Yuqi's armored saber-toothed tiger.
This ferocious beast, which Bai Yuqi temporarily named "Crocodile Bone Wolf", can be said to be the most powerful species among the extradimensional creatures that have invaded so far.
After they entered Chechnya, they almost killed all the creatures that invaded first. However, before they could get arrogant for a long time and almost occupied Chechnya, they were piled to death by a group of newly invaded ordinary rat dragons.
.
The crocodile-skinned bone wolf was powerful, but it couldn't resist the overwhelming number of rat dragons. They swarmed up and almost covered its body. Before it could kill many of them, the rat dragon ripped open its abdomen, which was not protected by subcutaneous bone armor. It died.
It's extremely miserable.
However, the end of the rat dragons that had eliminated the "rental bully" was not good either. Before they could finish the carcass of the crocodile-skinned bone wolf, they were wiped out by an even stranger-looking creature.
The back half of this creature looks a bit like a lizard, but its two forelimbs have grown into the shape of a mantis' sickle, and its body is covered with thick chitinous carapace like beetles, with dense spikes growing on the carapace.
As soon as those rat dragons pounced on them, their skin would be punctured by these sharp thorns, but they would die immediately afterwards.
At first, Bai Yuqi didn't understand how it killed those groups of rat dragons, but when Bai Yuqi saw it actively attacking an ostrich dragon, she realized that its sickle and bone spurs were probably carrying highly toxic poisons.
The strong poison can kill the opponent by breaking the skin a little, so we simply named it "Poisonous Mantis".
Then this lone poisonous mantis reigned supreme on Chechnya Island for a long time, and its size had grown several times. Only then, in a weak state after molting, was it killed by a group of jellyfish-like creatures that could float in the air.
The tentacles entangled him and poisoned him to death.
This watermelon-sized "floating jellyfish" doesn't eat much. After all, being able to float in the air means that it is very light. It can float in the air by relying on balloon-like air bags and layers of pleated skirts that flap.
After killing the poisonous mantis, a large group of floating jellyfish gathered next to the corpse, piercing its tentacles into the corpse to absorb the flesh and blood. One poisonous mantis is enough for a large group of floating jellyfish, and there are no extraterrestrial creatures.
Dare to provoke them.
It is also possible that this kind of floating jellyfish really has no hunting value. After their air sacs are bitten, they will be like burst balloons with only a thin layer of skin left, and they are dangerous.
In comparison, it is really not cost-effective.
Therefore, they miraculously maintained a relatively non-aggressive relationship with other invading alien species groups, and existed on Chechnya for a long time until they began to overrun.
This kind of floating jellyfish reproduces very quickly. While they use their long tentacles to absorb nutrients from the corpses to grow, they continue to reproduce a large number of small jellyfish.
The small jellyfish will also grow rapidly in the process of absorbing nutrients, so that it looks like a ball of growing foam.
Occasionally, when a gust of wind blows, these floating jellyfish will float everywhere like dandelion seeds, and then they will repeat the previous hunting process, gathering together to poison a prey nearby, and then start eating and breeding on the spot.
The floating jellyfish spread at an alarming speed, covering the entire Chechnya island covering an area of 200 square kilometers, looking like a pile of bubble bath soap bubbles piled on the island.
They not only turned the entire island into their territory, but also turned Chechnya into a dead land. No living thing can survive under their cover.
Because the floating jellyfish flooded so fast, they quickly spread to the entire Caspian Sea defense line with the flow of air, posing a serious threat to the Tang Dynasty Space-Time Allied Forces stationed here. Bai Yuqi had to take action to eliminate them.
.
Although a single floating jellyfish is very weak, it bursts like a balloon when poked.
