Those years of engaging with the system for animal insurance

On the island of Mauritius, a huge fruit bat swooped down and flew into the dry grass.Start collecting hay.

Li Cixin tied the hay with rattan and simply tied it.It took several hours to finally draw out the basic shape of the person.

After finishing this meticulous work, Li Cixin couldn't help sighing: Human hands are such a miraculous existence in nature.

Looking at this straw man who had just taken human form, he felt that it was still not resembling enough.

He specially found Ye Zi, intending to make a simple suit of clothes.

This task was more detailed, and it also made him collapse even more.

He was wrong, he was really wrong.When choosing the ability, you should choose the biological slime glue. How easy it is to stick it directly. Now it’s such a bitter seam.

For the next few days, Li Cixin was busy with this matter.

Finally, the straw man is out!

He put this Hawaiian-style straw man in the place where the dodo bird often moves.Not long after, a dodo staggered over and looked curiously at the thing with the same two legs as itself.

When the dodo was two meters away from the straw man, Li Cixin rushed down and knocked it to the ground.

Seeing this strange big fruit bat coming again, the dodo struggled, fluttering its already degenerated little wings, and ran away quickly!

Just as it was running, Li Cixin picked up the draftsman and started chasing it.

Chase, escape.

After a month like this, Li Cixin discovered that this method is still effective.The running speed of the dodo has obviously increased a lot.

Especially the young birds, those who just learned to run, encountered such a thing in childhood, and almost regarded running away as preschool education.

Because he was worried that the straw man was not close enough to the real image of a human being, Li Cixin would go to the island to try his luck every once in a while.

For no reason, just to be able to see a colonist's ship in the vast sea.

After all, it stands to reason that this place has already been discovered by the colonists, and there should be ships passing by.

Sure enough, Emperor Tian paid off.

After half a month, Li Cixin finally saw the shadow of the boat.It was a passing merchant ship and did not intend to dock here.

Seeing this, Li Cixin flew towards the ship.

The ship sailed from South Africa to Australia. The crew brought various handicrafts and planned to trade.

Just when everyone thought that this sea area would be calm and safe, a huge black shadow appeared in the sky.

"Oh! God, what's that?"

The crew members on the deck squinted their eyes and looked towards the sky.The sun at noon was a bit dazzling, and with the salty wind at sea, most people were sleeping in the cabin at this time.

The people on the deck stared at the UFO curiously.

Wait a little closer.

"It's a bat, it's a bat, hide quickly!"

"Stupid! Go get the gun!"

"That's too late."

The black shadow swooped down with lightning speed and swept away a person.The man kept dancing in the air, calling for his companions to save him.

A few seconds later, the crew member was stripped of his clothes and thrown back down again.

"Oh! Damn devil! Try my power!"

The person in charge of weapons in the fleet had already aimed their guns at Li Cixin in the sky.

But the moment he was about to press the trigger, the huge bat disappeared out of thin air.

Yes, in such a cloudless clear sky, such a huge creature disappeared without a trace before everyone's eyes.

The man put down his gun, looked at the blue sky around him in fear, and muttered to himself:

"demon?"

"what!"

Just when everyone thought the danger was over, another crew member suddenly rose into the air.It was as if some mysterious force lifted him up in the air.

Li Cixin repeated his old trick, simply took off the opponent's clothes, and threw them on the deck again.

The captain scolded the man with the firearm:

"Damn it, why didn't you just shoot?"

"That thing disappeared, didn't you see it?"

"What about the second time?"

"How can I shoot when I can't see the target, and what if I kill my own people?"

…………

Li Cixin ignored the quarrel behind him, and flew away with two clothes.

"Look, that monster is over there!"

Then, gunshots rang out.However, it was already too late.

With these two clothes, Li Cixin felt much more relaxed.

Clothes made of leaves are too easily damaged and easily ruined.Or human textiles are truer and more durable.

Later, he also planned to be a pig to train the fighting power of the dodo, but the effect was minimal.

Except for a very few dodos who have a strong sense of fighting, the other dodos are still docile little sheep.That being the case, let's continue to exercise our ability to escape.

If things go on like this, the dodos that have come down for a few years are already walking like flying.They can run fast no matter in the forest or in the mountains.The originally chubby body has become much slimmer, and as expected, exercise can still lose weight.They all look a lot smarter.

In the following time, Li Cixin did not stop encouraging these dodos.

More than ten years later, humans finally encountered the dodo for the first time.

Li Cixin saw the damaged merchant ship Amsterdam docked with his own eyes. The hungry crew members, like hungry wolves just released, began to go to the island to search for food and fresh water in ecstasy.

In groups of two, both carry weapons in case of emergency.

Sure enough, a group of crew members found strange movements in the woods.They pushed away the unsightly leaves, and the two found a huge strange bird in the open space in front of them.

They looked at each other and saw surprise and doubt in each other's eyes. This kind of bird was something they had never seen before.But depending on the size, it should be something that can eat a good meal.

Because they were not sure whether this strange bird was aggressive, the two planned to outflank it and kill it together.

In the process, a person accidentally stepped on a dead branch, and with a click, it attracted the attention of the big monster bird.

Seeing this big strange bird that looked dumb, it immediately turned its head around and found the person hiding in the grass.

Then there was a silence in the air, and the eyes were wide and small for a while.

Beep beep... The dodo uttered a hasty call, strode two legs, swished, and got into the grass.

The two chased for a while, but they couldn't even catch up with the dodo's hair.

too fast!

At this time, the people were already hungry and thirsty, and they didn't have so much physical strength to chase the dodo. In the end, they could only collect some wild fruits that looked edible and went back.

There are also other team members who have similar situations. After returning, some people also mentioned this matter.

"Damn it, we just found two really big birds, and it's a pity they got away so quickly."

"It turns out that you have also encountered it, and so have we. These strange big birds can run too fast."

………………

After that, the captain led the crew to encircle and suppress this big bird.It took a lot of effort before the crew caught one.

Li Cixin didn't pay much attention to such a dodo bird.After all, this kind of thing may not be completely cut off in the future, and I will not keep guarding these dodos forever.

Just let them adapt to the rules of survival of the fittest.

The crew built a fire and roasted the dodo. When they ate it, everyone showed expressions of being unable to swallow it.

To put it this way, due to the long-term running of the dodo, the meat that was originally chai is now getting harder to chew.It's like a piece of wool tumbling in the mouth, and it can't be buttoned out even if it's caught between the teeth.

Originally, the dodo still had very precious oil on its body, but now there is really only the lean meat of Chai.

But in the current environment, it would be nice to have meat to eat, and everyone didn't care so much, but probably there won't be a next time.

In the following time, before the ship is repaired.The crew of the Amsterdam never caught a dodo again.

One is that it is too difficult to catch, and the other is that it is really unpalatable.They would rather catch the crocodiles on the island than the dodos.

This result was beyond Li Cixin's expectation.It is also good news.

In this way, as new colonists entered the island, more and more people noticed this huge strange bird.But as word spread of people trying to eat it, attempts at these galloping dodos were dissuaded.

However, for the dodo, a new and more serious challenge has emerged, biological invasion.

The four brothers of the four invasive species, pigs, cats, dogs, and rats, are far more dangerous than humans.

The latter three can be said to be the third oldest among the early biological invasions.

Of course, their size, compared to the current adult dodo, is not so threatening.

Rats are very harmful. After all, for bird eggs, the existence of rats is almost impossible to guard against.

Cats are the greatest threat to juvenile dodos, while dogs are not picky eaters, and they are not very picky about adult dodos.

The most dangerous thing is the pig. This guy is bigger than an adult dodo, with rough skin and thick flesh. It can even kill and eat an adult dodo.

When Li Cixin discovered the invasive species for the first time, he was still an old friend - the big rat.

There is a saying that when you find a cockroach in a room, there are already thousands of cockroaches.This sentence is also suitable for mice.

These invaders, not only wreaked havoc on the dodo eggs, but also had serious consequences for other animals on the island.

In addition to the dodo, there are animals such as Nile crocodiles and tortoises on the island. Invasive animals will also affect them.

So Li Cixin also launched an action to expel the invasive animals.

For those who are cunning or strong in combat, Li Cixin will directly kill the opponent.

After several months of practice, Li Cixin felt that he had more energy than he wanted.

After all, these four animals have different routines, and it is difficult to meet them at the same time.

So, Li Cixin thought of a way: he threw all the mice he caught into human settlements, and let them eat human crops.

The same is true for wild boars, Li Cixin drove them out of the range of humans.As a result, the conflict between humans and these animals has become more and more intense.

As a result, these invasive animals were sandwiched between the colonists and Li Cixin, and encountered a large-scale siege.The numbers were effectively controlled, and even the wild boars were the first to be removed.

Later, wild cats and wild dogs gradually disappeared on the island of Mauritius.

Only rats hide in the ground and are difficult to eradicate, but the current living environment is much better for the dodo.

Over the generations, the dodo also developed some simple means of protecting against house mice.

The emergence of this evolutionary game proves that the dodo is not completely defenseless.After all, it needs external force to promote.

Seeing these changes, Li Cixin felt relieved.As a result, what the system said brought him back to his original form.

"Please pay attention, please pay attention, master. The longevity gene you have chosen may reduce the timeliness by more than half because you reversed the schedule too much when performing tasks. Please pay attention to the remaining time, the host."

Li Cixin: "...you didn't say it earlier..."

Bats are generally nocturnal, and they forcibly reverse their daytime activities in order to do tasks, which is equivalent to the night shift for the bat family.

As a result, who would have expected that the longevity ability was directly reduced by more than half. It seems that staying up late is indeed a taboo for living things.

Li Cixin decided to use the remaining time to extinguish the invasive species that have not been eliminated.

The idea is very full, but it is a pity that there is no one named Mary to cooperate with him.He lived until the end of his life, and the threat of the big rats was not over.

"Drip! The C-level mission "Save the Dodo" was successfully completed. The completion level is C-level, and the new gene is sent, please accept it."

"Phew!" Li Cixin breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that the mission was completed.It seems that the dodo has continued. Although it is shameful to escape, it is useful.

"Receive the gene." Li Cixin opened the panel.

The three genes this time are: [-]: magnetic field induction; [-]: anti-virus ability; [-]: wound healing regeneration ability.

The first gene comes from birds, which can perceive changes in the magnetic field. The ancient carrier pigeons are human beings who used this ability of birds.

As for the two and three, as the name suggests, they belong to the ability to save lives.

Li Cixin was lying on the bed in the dormitory and began to undergo transformation.

The next day, Li Cixin went to the dormitory and got on the bus of the military training base.

Military training begins.
