Chapter 10: Your original crocodile grandpa is about to evolve!
Chapter 10: Your original crocodile grandpa is about to evolve!
Japanese netizens were instantly in an uproar.
[Didn't expect that, did you? Hahaha! Did you really think we were as stupid as you?]
[Your Protocrocodilian wouldn't even be as good as one of the toes of a skeletalosaurus, would it?]
Watch how our ridged dragon stomps that toad into a shoe!
[To encircle and suppress? That's giving you too much credit. This is just called clearing away obstacles along the way~]
The mockery came one wave after another, and the Sakura netizens were as excited as if it were a festival.
Meanwhile, in China, the atmosphere plummeted to freezing point.
[It's over... With the swarm of Brutesaurus, can the Protosuchus survive the first phase?]
Even a weak skeletalosaurus is still a dinosaur. What could a Protosuchus possibly use to fight it? Its head?
[There are six stages in total. Will I be eliminated in the first stage...?]
"Wait, can we surrender in this game? Can't we just give up?"
Despair spread like a plague.
No one thought the original crocodile could survive.
Even those netizens who were still holding on were trembling as they typed.
Six stages have just begun.
Is it almost over?
Lin Xia remained calm and unhurried.
He leaned back in his chair with his legs crossed, a handful of sunflower seeds that Tianmu had somehow conjured up in his hand. He cracked one open with a "crack" and slowly tossed the kernel into his mouth.
"Give it a try—"
Before the words were finished, a great golden light shone from the sky.
[Phase One - Begin!]
[The Japan Intervention Card is now in effect; the Sky Screen will prioritize observation of the Rhinoceros spp.]
In-game.
The group of skeletal dragons received instructions from Ichiro Suzuki.
The group of skeletal dragons that had been leisurely grazing among the ferns suddenly raised their heads in unison.
The leading male skeletal dragon roared, stomped its four legs on the ground, turned around, and led the entire clan toward the mudflat where the original crocodiles lived.
Along the way, small dinosaurs and mammals gave way.
Although the skeletal dragon was not large, its rough scales and the bony plates on its back were enough to make most animals give way.
Soon, the mudflats came into view.
More than twenty crocodiles were lying in the mud, basking in the sun, their bulging eyes half-closed, looking lazy.
They seem unaware that danger is approaching.
Without hesitation, the group of skeletal dragons charged forward.
Tear or bite.
crash.
Trampling.
However, the skeletal dragon was a herbivore after all, and its attack power was relatively weak among dinosaurs.
Their teeth are short and flat, with limited bite force. They can inflict wounds on the crocodile, but it is difficult to kill it with a single blow.
The issue is.
Even the original crocodiles couldn't bite them.
The skin of the skeletal dragon was very thick, and its body was covered with a layer of rough scales.
The crocodile's row of tiny, sharp teeth were no different from chewing on a rock.
The situation then devolved into a pure war of attrition.
The skeletalosaurus didn't gain much advantage, but the Protosuchus lost even more.
One, two, three...
Several more crocodile carcasses gradually appeared on the mudflats, lying belly up in the muddy water, motionless.
The other surviving Protocrocodilians began to retreat into the water, leaving only their eyes and nostrils exposed, staring intently at the skeletal dragon on the shore.
Six.
In the first engagement, the original crocodile team lost five or six of their members.
The skeletal dragon herd suffered almost no casualties.
Global Joint Command Center.
Several high-ranking officials in the Sakura Ward laughed so hard their eyes almost disappeared after witnessing this scene.
"Oh dear, almost a third of them are already dead? They're even more vulnerable than I imagined~"
"Tsk tsk, those guys from the Dragon Kingdom looked pretty good just now, why are they all silent now?"
"Crocodile? More like leather shoes. Once the ridged dragon has trampled the last one to death, we'll save the Dragon Kingdom some time. You're welcome."
The laughter wasn't loud, but every word struck a chord deep within the hearts of everyone in the Dragon Kingdom District.
Dragon Kingdom District.
lifeless.
No one spoke, no one argued, and it seemed as if the strength to even look up at the cherry blossom area had been drained away.
Commander Hua sat in his chair, his fingers gripping the armrests tightly, his knuckles turning white.
The white-bearded scientist lowered his head, his gray eyebrows furrowed into a knot, his lips moved a few times, but in the end he said nothing.
……
A private room.
Lin Xia narrowed her eyes, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.
"Hilarious, you think you can destroy my original crocodile grandpa?"
He cracked the last sunflower seed in his hand and patted the crumbs off his hands.
"Your Grandpa Crocodile isn't stupid. If he can't win, why doesn't he just hide in the water?"
"What if a skeletal dragon can't enter deep water?"
Moreover, this will allow my original crocodile grandfather to evolve into an amphibious species ahead of schedule.
He knew perfectly well what was going on in his heart.
He was still figuring out how to make the original crocodile evolve into an aquatic species.
After all, under normal circumstances, it takes a very long time for a crocodile to transform from a terrestrial creature into an amphibian.
Now, the encirclement and suppression by the Rhyperiordon from the Sakura Kingdom has actually done him a great favor.
Everything fell into place naturally.
Phase 1, within the game.
Things turned out exactly as Lin Xia had predicted.
The dozen or so surviving crocodiles did not hesitate at all after their companions fell.
He turned and ran.
Their short, stubby limbs pried so hard in the mud that they left afterimages, and their gray-brown figures tumbled and crawled into the deep water, splashing high into the air.
The herd of skeletal dragons chased them to the water's edge and stopped.
They lingered on the shore for a few steps, and a few of the bolder ones tried to walk into the shallow water, but hesitated when the water level was just above their calves.
After walking a few more steps, the water reached my knees.
They came to a complete stop.
It's not that I can't swim, it's that I'm afraid to go into deep water.
The group of ridgeback dragons could only watch from afar on the shore.
Those bulging eyes emerged from the water, gleaming faintly in the dim light, like a row of silent mockery.
Grandpa Crocodile: Come here!
On the mudflats, only a few carcasses of the original crocodiles remained, soaking in murky blood.
Those who survived have already sunk safely to the bottom of the water.
Seeing this, Lin Xia smiled faintly.
Everything is going according to his script.
We have to thank Japan for this...
Meanwhile, Chinese netizens breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing the bulging eyes protruding from the water in the deep end.
It's not dead!
It's not dead yet!!
Although five or six died, and the casualties were heavy, at least... they are still alive.
But just as they were starting to relax, they saw Lin Xia's face.
The boy sat in his private room, a smile playing on his lips, seemingly nonchalant.
It's as if what just died wasn't five lives, but five insignificant numbers.
The mentality of Chinese netizens instantly collapsed.
[My God, he's half dead and he's still laughing? Is he genuinely clueless or just pretending?]
[If it were me, I'd be crying my eyes out, while he's laughing so happily. What a contrast!]
I'm speechless. I can't tell if he's genuinely wise or just incredibly carefree...
Please, brother, stop laughing. Your smile makes my heart race, really.
I really don't understand what his sense of humor is!
