Evolution from the crocodile

Lying on the shore, looking at the scarlet eyes reflected in the water.

Lu Chen felt that there was something wrong with his mentality, and he seemed to be becoming more and more violent.

Just like what I just experienced, I didn't feel any discomfort at all.

A few months ago, he would never have done this.

Hunting, training, fighting...this was Lu Chen's life for more than half a year after he became a crocodile, completely isolated from human society. His way of thinking and acting style changed unconsciously, without even realizing it.

For many wild animals, staying alive and filling their stomachs...if possible, find one or a group of strong and healthy members of the opposite sex to give birth to offspring and contribute to the reproduction of the population.

This is all they pursue.

But as a crocodile with a human soul, Lu Chen only had the most basic needs of eating, drinking and urinating. He has always had his own ideas about the path he wants to take in the future.

To paraphrase Mr. Lu Xun’s famous saying, “If humans don’t have thoughts, what’s the difference between humans and animals?”

Since God gave him this body, Lu Chen planned to live a different and colorful life.

Of course, he didn't think he had done anything wrong tonight, but he was afraid that he would become accustomed to it in the future, lose his respect for human beings, and eventually lose his mind completely, wanting only to solve problems by killing.

Many times, after the first time, there will be a second time, a third time...

By that time, I'm afraid death is really not far away.

After thinking for a long time, Lu Chen still didn't get rid of his confusion.

Sigh... I'll consider these things later, it's better to go home early.

Home?

The figures of Crocodile Boss, Crocodile Lao Er and Crocodile Girl appeared in Lu Chen's mind.

Perhaps it is their company that keeps me from being so lonely and empty, and I can always maintain my sanity.

Thinking in his mind, Lu Chen went down the river, crossed hundreds of miles of water, and returned to the valley.

Hearing the even breathing in the cave, he quietly got into it.

Almost at the same time, the three crocodiles opened their eyes together, their eyes full of vigilance.

After seeing clearly that it was Crocodile Laosan, they became relaxed again and greeted each other with low hisses. Crocodile Er Er moved to the side, making room in the middle.

Lu Chen squeezed over with peace of mind, leaned over and climbed down. Little Crocodile Girl's head immediately came over and her body pressed closer to her.

Go home feeling good.

Before returning last night, Lu Chen almost devoured the remaining blood and flesh of the hound.

When he woke up in the morning, he was not hungry at all.

As usual, I will run a thousand meters in the valley, and then start tree climbing training. It wasn't until he was exhausted that Lu Chen swam into the warm lake water and squinted his eyes to rest.

Zhizhi, Zhizhi...

Outside the valley, several sharp and harsh macaque calls came.

After living with the monkeys for a long time, Lu Chen became familiar with some of these guys' behaviors and habits.

Like many animals in groups, when monkeys are playing and foraging, there will be several members nearby who are responsible for keeping watch.

Once they detect any danger around them, they will immediately vocalize to notify the entire monkey group.

Lu Chen didn't care at first, but he didn't expect that the shouts outside the valley became more and more urgent, and then a noisy sound came.

In just half a minute, these guys panicked and hid in the valley.

what?

Lu Chen looked towards the sky with curiosity, but did not find any large raptors. In fact, since he hunted the giant golden eagle, he hadn't seen any other raptors for a long time.

Roar... Following a low roar, a strange smell drifted from the mouth of the valley.

This is the unique smell of carnivorous animals, full of blood...

Lu Chen quietly emerged from the water and saw a big, vigorous cat appearing among the dense branches and leaves.

The golden fur is as smooth and soft as satin, and is covered with dark brown plum blossom markings. Judging from the appearance alone, it is very beautiful.

This is an adult leopard! Lu Chen recognized the other party's true identity at a glance.

The leopard is a large carnivore of the genus Leopard, with a maximum weight of over one hundred kilograms. However, the one in front of me is not that huge. It is about a meter long and about 80 kilograms.

This guy probably passed by accidentally, or had just expanded his territory nearby, and didn't know that this mountain forest was already occupied by another large overlord.

Although it was his first time facing this guy, Lu Chen was not afraid at all.

I even had enough time to watch the development of the situation...

The two weighed about the same, but compared to him, the other's body length was at the level of a child.

What Lu Chen didn't expect was that the group of macaques immediately squeaked excitedly after seeing him. Immediately, one by one jumped from the tree and quickly rushed to the lake.

A few brave guys even bared their teeth and screamed at the leopard.

Seeing the monkeys not far away acting like they were seeking death, the leopard couldn't help but have a trace of doubt in its pupils.

These guys are so courageous that they dare to provoke themselves. They really don't know how to live or die.

You must let them know how awesome it is.

The leopard's limbs flicked on the tree trunk and landed lightly on the ground.

Then it walked slowly towards the lake with elegant and steady steps.

Just after walking more than ten meters, it suddenly stopped.

There was a strange smell in the air. It felt a dangerous and uneasy atmosphere from it.

The leopard opened his eyes wide and carefully looked around, and soon found a piece of rotten wood floating on the lake.

That wasn't rotten wood at all, it was a weird reptile that I had never seen before!

The opponent's dark back was covered with scales, and he floated motionless on the water, looking harmless to humans and animals. But this leopard did not attack rashly. On the contrary... the beast's eyes were full of caution.

It constantly measures the gap between the two, as if wondering whether it's worth the fight.

When the other party hesitated, Lu Chen made a move.

He moved his limbs up to the shore, moving slowly and looking extremely clumsy.

Squeak, squeak

When the monkeys saw Lu Chen coming out of the water, they screamed even louder. It’s almost Chi Guoguo’s provocation - Come here if you have the guts!

As one of the overlords of the jungle, when has the leopard ever suffered such injustice?

It immediately let out a low growl, lowered its limbs slightly, and made an attack posture.

Immediately, he turned around and ran wildly.

Before Lu Chen could react, the guy had already fled back to the big tree.

Damn...he was a little speechless.

I was so shocked just now that I thought I could catch a leopard and try it out.

Result, that's it?

Lu Chen had no intention of trying to hunt. His recent experience made him understand that it was impossible to hunt cats in the dense jungle with his own speed.

Unless these guys are stupid and give up their own advantages to have a one-on-one showdown on land.

What he has to do now is to drive this guy out completely. Let the other party understand that this valley is covered by you. If nothing happens, get away. The two sides can avoid infringement.

Thinking in his mind, Lu Chen jumped up and climbed up the tree with the same efficiency.

Sure enough, the leopard was startled again and jumped quickly to other trees.

After a few flashes, he disappeared from sight.
