Chapter 324: Little Alien
As the name suggests, the country of wind is indispensable in all seasons. After tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands of years of evolution, rocks and soil have been continuously weathered to form a vast desert.
And the countless oasis in this desert have become a concentrated place for Fengzhi people to build villages and live and reproduce.
Because of the vast area of the Wind Country, the population of the entire Wind Country is actually quite large.
It is only slightly less than the Fire Country, which is separated by some small countries.
...
On this day, the wind and sand are everywhere.
Although it has not reached the level of a sandstorm and hurricane, it is difficult for ordinary people to work and walk outside under such strong winds. Therefore, there is no trace of people in the entire desert, and even the animals and beasts in the desert are lurking one after another and rarely move outside.
Suddenly, a black shadow seemed to appear at the top of the sand dune.
This is a desert jackal.
Compared with the relatives of the wolf tribe in many countries adjacent to the Wind Kingdom, the desert jackal has a small and thin body, and its mouth is sharper and longer. The nasal cavity above the mouth is longer and more developed.
In this world where the scientific level is not as good as the Earth, especially in natural sciences, few people will study animals before a complete system was formed.
A very small number of enthusiasts only record most of the animals’ paintings. Except for a small number of domestic livestock commonly found in humans, most of the animals’ information is not detailed.
As for the desert jackal's sense of smell is actually six times that of ordinary wolves, and it has not been discovered by humans that it is more sensitive to water.
It is precisely because of such a keen sense of smell that desert jackals can find water, food, and predict the arrival of the storm in advance, and survive tenaciously in the desert.
This desert jackal walked around and stopped, trying to distinguish the various chaotic smells in the not-so-small wind and sand, wanting to get a good meal.
Suddenly...a bloody smell came.
This immediately made the desert jackal's eyes lit up. After a little determined, he quickly ran towards the source...
The wind and sand in the desert come and go quickly.
After the desert jackal ran less than a kilometer, the wind and sand gradually subsided, leaving only the breeze slowly pushing the tiny gravel at the top of the dune.
Climbing to the top of the dune, the desert jackal saw its own food—on the back of the huge dune, the body of a huge desert camel lying horizontally under the dune.
The desert jackal looked around and looked carefully and vigilantly whether there were any beasts nearby that could kill desert camels.
After confirming safety, the desert jackal raised its claws and ran quickly to the corpse of the desert camel. The hungry for a few days made it unable to wait to open its sharp mouth full of sharp teeth and gnaw on the desert camel.
Humph—!
The taste is wrong.
Although I haven't eaten a large animal like a desert camel many times, the jackal still understands that the taste after biting through the thick skin of the desert camel should be tender fat and delicious and elastic muscles... and the inside is rich in nutrients and excellent in taste.
If it is fresher, the blood can replenish water and make it taste better.
However……
Now it is empty when its fangs pierce the thick and tough skin of the desert camel.
The soft and elastic muscles below seemed to be missing.
The underside of this skin seemed as empty as wild and there was nothing!
The desert jackal was a little confused - the smell of blood was still fresh, and from the outside, it seemed that the desert camel was not torn through the big hole by a large beast. Then he ate all the internal organs and fresh meat inside bit by bit?
Swish—!
A black shadow suddenly jumped out of the desert camel's mouth, scaring it.
But at that moment there was no time to capture the image of the other person and tell it. The other person was not a big guy...at most it was the same size as the hare or other small beasts.
Experience tells it - a creature of this body size. Unless it is toxic, there will be no big danger.
Even if it is poisonous, more than half of the food in the desert will be venomous scorpions and insects in the desert for generations. Desert jackals who have already possessed very strong anti-toxicity will not be afraid of ordinary poisons.
The other party did not escape.
I stopped shortly.
Only then can the desert jackal see this strange creature clearly...
Black carapace, streamlined body, weird, slender and flat tail... and a smooth water drop-shaped head...
The desert jackal was sure that he had never seen such a creature.
‘Is it a scorpion?’ The simple brain of the desert jackal quickly stirred up…
The jackal, who had just spent a long time and had nothing to eat, felt saliva begin to secrete from her mouth... The crispy shell of the desert scorpion, the tender scorpion flesh full of moisture and umami... and the small fishy smell, but it is very suitable for the jackal's taste buds...
Try it...it arched its back and carefully prepared for the attack.
The result of natural selection over countless generations has led every animal to develop various good habits about fighting.
For example, in a desert filled with poisonous insects, fast and agile tentative attack is particularly important.
As the most common low-end beast in the desert, the desert jackal is naturally a good player.
Whoosh. The desert jackal jumper jumped towards the strange creatures a few steps away.
Usually, this move is accompanied by claw strikes, bites, dodges and quick retreat after landing, which is very unpredictable.
Don't talk about unresponsive bugs.
Even other hunters were difficult to react, and the desert jackals added a few scratches or a tooth hole to their bodies.
moment.
The other party moved.
Too fast!
The desert jackal felt a flash in front of his eyes, and the black figure had already pounced on his face!
Before it could do even a little dodge, two sharp claws grabbed its eyes.
Puff——!
The desert jackal's eyes turned dark, and the next moment, the black creature jumped onto its back.
The two claws were penetrated hard into the back of the desert jackal. The strong muscles, tough fur and strong bones that could resist the iron rod had no effect in front of the small, baby-like claws!
It was directly grabbed by this pair of slender and evil black claws, and pulled it hard under the strange force of the alien...
Snap!
Half of the spine was pulled out of the jackal's back by the alien!
Aowoo—!!!
A shrill scream was accompanied by the sound of the jackal's body falling into the sand.
It's finished.
Can't resist.
Even if this alien lets it go, it will definitely not last for a few hours.
As for the small alien, although he had just eaten a huge desert camel, the terrifying cosmic creature like the alien never seemed to know what satisfaction is!
The super growth rate that can transform into a mature body within one day implies the huge demand for food or energy from the alien itself.
Knock... Knock... the small alien began to swallow his still alive jackal one by one.
