Chapter 216 Complicated Battle Location

Zhou Shu never knew how big Skull Island was. Now that he walked down, he felt that the island was much bigger than he imagined.

It's just that if it's really that big, he doesn't believe that this thing is near Sumatra Island, which is also one of the most important sea lanes in the world, and no one will find it.

So the "Skull Island" where he is now is definitely not the Skull Island in the movie setting, at least it has gone through the magic modification of the assessment system.

Coupled with the 20-meter-long Destroyer King Dragon King he had seen before, his thoughts were further strengthened.

Ever since he saw this thing that day, he realized that this Skull Island is unusual, and it cannot be regarded as a simple 2005 version of Skull Island. Maybe something from the 2017 version will also appear in this place.

So is the final big boss a 7-meter-high King Kong, or a 30-meter-high King Kong?
Or is it King Kong who is the height between them?
Moreover, he also discovered "Spine Gu" on Skull Island. If it weren't for the dense trees around him, he would have thought he had dreamed back to the spirit cage world.

Of course, the reason why "Spine Gu" is in quotation marks here is naturally because what he saw was not spine Gu, but some prehistoric big bugs.

Or a giant centipede.

They are all elongated bodies with many legs, but there are great individual differences, some are about 30 centimeters, some are about 60 centimeters, and some are about 90 centimeters.

Especially the kind that is about 90 centimeters, although it is less than one meter, it is quite powerful.

This kind of big centipede is called Rui Banyue Claw Chongwa. It is a large canopy centipede whose body is blood reddish brown. The sound of the wind, and sleepless nights.

The name of Rui Banyue Chongwa means "mother of all worms", and as the largest canopy centipede living in the top area of ​​the Skull Island forest, its measured length of nearly 1 meter is also worthy of the "mother of all worms" symbol.

Although titled the "goddess", the sharp half-moon pincer Chongwa is by no means a "gentle and amiable person". Whether it is birds, lizards, arboreal mammals, rodents, insects or dinosaurs, the beasts on Skull Island The youngest and most helpless babies are the options that may be on the list of "beautiful meals that make the empress of Chongwa salivate".

But fortunately, the appetite of "His Royal Highness" is not too exaggerated. Just one dinosaur cub is enough for their elders to eat for a week.

What's more, Rui Banyue's pincers don't like to share with other parties by nature. In order to prevent those with malicious intentions from snatching the "sacrifice meal", Rui Banyue's pincers will eat them all the way into the cavity of the corpse.

At the same time, they will release a very pungent and stimulating chemical substance to every corner of the entire sacrificial body, which will make most curious "scavengers" who are close to it be pissed off by this smell.

Therefore, except for the week when Rui Banyue Pincer was busy digesting the sacrifice, the people in the jungle no longer had to worry about their children being "sacrificed silently" until the next reincarnation.

Zhou Shu didn't care about this thing, he wouldn't rummage over the corpses of other animals when he had nothing to do, but his two hounds touched the corpses of animals before, and when they got close, they were slapped by Rui Banyue's pincers.

The pungent and irritating chemicals released by that thing almost blinded the eyes of the two hounds, and their sense of smell was disabled for a long time. It was extremely terrifying!
The day after he was attacked by this thing, the two hounds disappeared, so Zhou Shu was not sure whether it was because his points increased too fast, the assessment system canceled his "helper", or whether the hounds were attacked. It depends. Can't smell things clearly, causing them to run away in the middle of the night?
It stands to reason that Zhou Shu wouldn't be unable to hear them running away, even if he was asleep at the time, so he tended to be recalled by the assessment system.

After the Hound disappeared, there was good and bad.

The good thing is that he is more flexible when traveling during the day and does not need to take care of the speed of the two hounds, but at night without the hounds on vigil, his sleep quality drops sharply.

On the way, he encountered some obstacles and was almost swallowed.

This time it wasn't his carelessness, but as he went deeper, Skull Island blocked his perception more and more. When he ran quickly through a jungle, a big mouth suddenly burst out from the nearby grass. rushed out.

If he hadn't suddenly opened a force field shield beside him, the shield surface was larger than the opening of the mouth, causing him to be pushed up, and he might have been broken.

Who would have thought that just after he was pushed up, a big mouth appeared from the other side, so he simply shaped the force field shield into a spherical shape and completely wrapped himself up.

"click~"

"click~"

After flying through seven mouths in a row, he landed, and then he saw seven big lizards and crocodiles looking at him eagerly.

This kind of monster is called Chouditodon crocodile. It looks like a large lizard with a crocodile carapace. The adult individual can reach a length of more than 6 meters.

They are mottled gray in color, broad-boned and muscular, and their faces, snouts and toes are often infected and blistered by their forced entry into holes covered with a large number of foliage.

Coupled with a mouth full of jagged fangs, it looks ugly!
Of course, in the end they all became Zhou Shu's points.

Now if the top predators are not dispatched, Zhou Shu will not have the slightest worry and tension at all, and the rest will be rewarded points, so after Zhou Shu ate a meal of roasted chicken legs, his task arrangement will be more A new small task, let him find an island in the middle of the lake, which is the final assessment location.

And arrive within a day.

If you are too far away from that place, I'm sorry, this is also part of the assessment, and some luck is normal.

After getting a new task, Zhou Shu carried the leftover half of a big chicken leg and ate it while running.

As for this chicken leg, it is really amazing. It comes from a huge "chicken".

In other words, people also have a scientific name, called the giant wingless bird.

The giant wingless bird is a large wingless suborder ground-dwelling bird moa on Skull Island. Its hip height is generally 1.8 meters and its overall height exceeds 3 meters.

For a long time, Skull Island has been the refuge of several species of ground-dwelling moa, and the one with a large ax-shaped beak and a very strong body that runs rampant in it is the ferocious giant wingless bird.

When standing on their legs, they can be several heads taller than a standard adult, and among the various species of Skull Island moa, the giant moa is also the heaviest.

With its sharp beak, fast-running long legs and huge claws, the giant wingless bird has become a predator that makes many creatures on Skull Island fearful.

Any running creature that is smaller than itself is a potential prey of the giant wingless bird, and the prey need to hone their galloping skills every day, so as to avoid being hit by them if they really can't run the giant wingless bird. Thump with a beak as big as a pickaxe.

It is undoubtedly painful to become their food, because the first heavy blow from them often cannot die, so most of the prey die after being knocked continuously.

But when it came to Zhou Shu's side, it directly turned into points and food.

Zhou Shu didn’t have the slightest appetite for the previous crocodile. Zhou Shu didn’t have the slightest appetite, but the giant wingless bird was different. The first time he saw it, Zhou Shu fell in love with its “big chicken legs”.

Having eaten dinosaur meat many times, Zhou Shu feels the same way. Some people think that eating chicken is eating dinosaur, so eating dinosaur is similar to eating chicken, but that is not the case at all.

Now I see a piece of meat in the shape of a chicken leg. Although the leg is...a bit bigger, it looks very similar anyway.

He wanted to eat real chicken drumsticks, but unfortunately there were none on Skull Island, so he could only use something similar.

He ate big mouthfuls, and quickly ran towards the place shown on the map, because the distance between him and the target was not far, so it took only two hours to arrive.

And after seeing this new target, he knew that this was definitely not the Skull Island in the original setting.

Because what he saw was a huge basin, which was a very regular circle, so regular that Zhou Shu suspected that it was actually a huge meteorite impact crater.

I don't know if it's because of the accumulation of rainwater or underground springs. Anyway, the basin is full of water, forming a large lake. There is a small hill in the middle of the large lake. The hill is lush and full of plants, and the situation inside cannot be seen clearly.

But he didn't rush out in a hurry. The edge of the Great Basin is a rare open area. He wasn't sure if he was the only one who received this task. After all, it was the final assessment, so everyone else should have arrived.

It's just that he hasn't seen those people yet.

In two cases, either the other people have not arrived, or they have arrived, but they are hiding and observing secretly.

As a mature old bastard, how could he rush out recklessly.

Anyway, it is stipulated that one day is 24 hours, and it has only been more than two hours now, which is still early.

Hide first, observe the places where other candidates may be hidden, and pay attention to other candidates coming towards you, and pay attention to the lake surface and the final "crossing the river" plan.

It’s hard to say the first two, but the latter two can be integrated into the “River Crossing” plan.

This time the interference was worse than outside. Although he could still fly, there was no way to fly directly across the lake and land on the central island. The lake was too wide, so he had to build a boat.

Even if you don't need a boat, you need a piece of wood.

But once he appears on the lake, he will definitely be seen by other candidates. Judging from the current situation, he will definitely be attacked.

In addition to guarding against other candidates, he also had to pay attention to underwater attacks. Just now he saw that there were huge black shadows swimming past underwater, and huge dorsal fins or spines emerged, and then sank again.

Even if they eat mayfly creatures, they are docile, but if there are docile ones, there are violent ones.

The last thing Skull Island lacks is predators.

There are predators several meters long in a small pool, and he doesn't believe that this big lake is safe.

In a short while, he spotted several underwater predators.

One is the latent filthy dragon, which is more than 3 meters long and is an unknown species of freshwater and saltwater reptiles on Skull Island.

The submerged filthy dragon has a jet-black back, and its body color will turn orange-yellow in sunny places. It has a thick and short neck and a large triangular head, similar to the flipper-like hind feet of typical sea crawlers of the Cretaceous period, but their The overall appearance is quite similar to that of the salamander.

The submerged filthy dragon has strong and flexible head, neck, and upper and lower jaw muscles, combined with a mouth full of uneven, sharp teeth like meat cleavers, which can tear off a large piece of meat from the prey or kill it on the spot prey.

A thick, long tail, huge webbed forefeet with sharp nails, and true rear flippers are what make Dracosaurus such a strong swimmer in the waterways of Skull Island.

Although the small eyeballs have been squeezed almost to the snout, the lurking filth dragons still have excellent binocular vision, allowing them to detect distant prey or enemies swimming in the dark waterways of Skull Island at night. Trajectory, which makes them deadly killers of many prey sub-adults, prey pups, and even humans.

The latent filthy dragon, which often appears in a team of six individuals, is a pack hunter and can hold its breath for more than 3 minutes in deep water.

As a typical aquatic reptile, the key to dominating the shallow water area of ​​the Skull Island waterway is "teamwork first".

Whenever a school of fish is found, just like dolphins and sharks, all submerged filthy dragons will use all means to drive small groups of small groups of fish to the water surface near large coral reefs or giant building pillars, Forces previously dispersed schools of fish to gather into an oversized "fishball".

After all, for fish, gathering into a large group can increase the survival rate, but becoming such a big "fish ball" is in the hands of a dirty dragon.

The huge fish ball has become an extremely conspicuous target, and it is not easy to lose it. The fish in the "ball" also dare not go elsewhere because of the luck of "being in a big team", which makes the fish Children will always be limited to a few areas.

At this time, the latent filthy dragons will plunge into the fish ball suddenly, open their bloody mouths and bite casually, and they can take away a big mouthful of fish.

In this way, the "team fish ball", which should be safe for fish, has become a cafeteria where filthy dragons lurk.

Until the fish really dared to take the step of "breaking the whole into parts" and fled separately, or until they were full.

As soon as these things come out, there will be a group of them. If they overturn the logs and small wooden boats, then the candidates who fall into the water will be miserable.

After all, combat in water has never been the strong point of humanoid creatures.

In addition to this thing, Zhou Shu also saw a creature similar to a plesiosaur. According to the official setting, this thing is called a top-helmed plesiosaur.

If you want to live in Skull Island, you need the strange "shield armor" for survival. This trick not only applies to land, but also works underwater.

But for the various armored turtles on Skull Island, if you encounter a top-helmed snake dragon unfortunately, no matter how powerful the carapace is, it will not help.

The top-helmet snake dragon can grow up to 5 meters. They haunt the mangrove areas, tide-stained areas, and deep-water areas of rivers on Skull Island. They are extremely soft and flexible, ferocious predators.

The main dishes on their diet, besides fish, are all kinds of sea turtles or freshwater turtles.

In order to enjoy the delicacy, the top-helmed snake dragon has its own unique means to deal with the turtle shells that are difficult for other predators to clean.

Zhou Shu once found that the top-helmet linnorm was lazily lying on the beach, with large or small turtle shells on top of its head or on its back. The reason was that they were unwilling to waste even a little bit of turtle meat, so It is often necessary to carry the shell of the prey on the body, so that it can stick its head in at any time, and poke and poke to see if there are any leftovers that have not been eaten clean.

This looks like a helmet on the head or body, which is why they are called "top-helmed linnorms".

In order to eat such delicacies, their bodies have been specially evolved.

Like their Cretaceous ancestors, the Helmed Linnosaurus had an extremely slender, flexible, and flexible neck, and an equally long, flexible, and powerful head.

First of all, the top-helmed snake dragon can easily insert its head from the turtles' head indentation seam or limb indentation seam.

Then, it was the turn of another weapon of the Helmlinnosaurus. In their mouths full of sharp teeth, the most important weapon was not those teeth, but their tongue, which was very similar to snake-like creatures.

When the heads of the top-helmed linnorms are forcibly inserted into the hard shells of the turtles, they will first bite the breastplates of the turtles with their upper teeth, or use their entire heads to hold the upper and lower ends of the indentation, and then put them in that A powerful tongue suddenly pierced into the heads or other parts of the turtles.

Next, the top-helmet linnorm will slowly "suck out" the turtles' flesh like a spider.

Eventually, like those prey caught by spiders, the turtles will be absorbed from the inside out, leaving only an empty turtle shell.

Sometimes, if there is enough time, before the turtles can retract the limbs back into the shell, the linnosaurus will bite off the limbs of the turtles first, depriving the turtles of mobility, and then slowly eat every morsel of meat soup.

If humans fell into the water, they probably wouldn't mind trying this kind of food without a hard shell.

Just when Zhou Shu thought that this thing was the biggest predator here, he saw a bigger monster crawling from the water to the shore to bask in the sun.

After this thing climbed up, the 5-meter-long top-helmed linnorm became... a medium guy, and the 3-meter-long submerged filthy dragon became a small guy, because the size of this thing exceeds 7 meters!
At this moment, Zhou Shu found that four people had appeared on the edge of the basin, and they stood there carelessly, looking towards the island in the middle of the lake.

What's even more amazing is that Zhou Shu saw their numbers. The three numbers 82, 63, and 18 were on top of his head like the names of game characters.
