Survival In the World of Beasts - Chapter 79
At Baihu’s gesture, everyone wiped the odor-eliminating herbs on their bodies, and continued to play the terrible peek-a-boo game. As they spent more and more time in circles on the Terrifying Beast Territory, Li Shizhao gradually had a map in his heart.
The clearer the terrain, the more Li Shizhao admired Baihu’s courage and grasp of timing. Several times, they passed by the horror beasts dangerously across a mountain. The two clear three-toed footprints of the horror beast on the snow clearly showed that the two giant beasts had just passed from here a few minutes ago. At the time, they were on the back of the mountain. The various thrills are indescribable in a few words.
Li Shizhao was very confused, he had no idea how Bai Hu did it. It is so safe and wonderful to grasp the distance between them and the beast of fear. At the same time, he couldn’t understand why Bai Hu took such a big risk to approach the two terrifying beasts. If he wanted to intercept and kill Li Zhizhu, he didn’t believe that Bai Hu would choose to attack directly.
He tugged the snow-white fur under his body, frowning and thinking about this guy’s plan.
With more and more “close encounters” with the fearful beasts, the people in the team have become more and more aware of the surrounding terrain and the living habits of this terrifying monster.
Probably because of the scarcity of vegetation in the snowy field and fewer prey, the territories occupied by these two horror beasts are very vast, and the horror beasts often patrol this wide territory in search of food.
The forest in the mouth of the orcs is located in the northernmost part of this territory, connected to a cliff that is too steep to cover by falling snow. This forest area is very small, probably because it grows on a sunny hillside, and there are cliffs that block the cold wind, so there are many tall trees, and there are some bushes covered by heavy snow under the trees. A lot of shrubs and hay grow on the cliffs further north.
At this time, the forest was covered by heavy snow, and thick snow remained on the naked trunks with fallen leaves. The coniferous trees without fallen leaves were also covered with thick snow jackets, showing only a little green, indicating that the leaves were still there.
Such an inconspicuous grove is the only hope for the surrounding herbivores to spend the heavy snow season. The fallen leaves, rotten wood and shrubs left under the tree are the only definable source of food within an unknown number of meters. So even if you know that there are terrible behemoths living in the woods, in the desperate winter, from time to time there are herbivores and moths rushing to fight the fire, risking their lives just for the bitter residue.
Because of this geographical advantage of attracting prey, the two terrifying beasts used this as their base camp, and only temporarily left when they were out hunting.
Creatures that can survive in a dangerous environment have extraordinary abilities. This iron law also applies to the animals living around this forest. It is not so easy to be neighbors with the terrifying beasts.
They either have keen five senses and quick response, like those small mammals and small dinosaurs rushing in the woods, or they have unbreakable defenses, like the ankylosaurus that wanders in the woods for several encounters, or they have swift speed. And superb acrobatics level, just like this group of creatures in front of me.
This is a group of snow-white mammals that can’t tell whether it is a sheep or a cow, with strong brown horns growing on their heads. At this time, they are scattered on the cliffs where snowflakes can’t stop, eating hay, shrubs and various moss leisurely. Say they are sheep, sheep will not have such a strong body; say they are cattle, which cattle can come and go freely on the steep mountain wall close to ninety degrees?
This should be the only animal that does not need to worry about food sources in the snow season. Although the shrub moss is hard to swallow, the number is guaranteed. The plants on the cliffs are enough for their supply in the winter. There is absolutely no problem.
Seeing that sturdy figure leaping flexibly on the mountain wall, just watching from the sidelines made Li Shizhao out of breath several times. It was obvious that the rocks under their hoofs rolled down several times, like this huge animal in the next moment. It will roll down accidentally and fall into **** flesh. Facts have proved that this situation is purely imaginary. These robust animals can always find balance quickly and continue to walk on the vertical cliffs as if they were flat on the ground.
Probably only with such superb acrobatics can you eat the food that other animals can’t reach. None of the creatures that can survive the difficult environment is simple.
Like this kind of animals that live on the mountain walls, the Horror Beasts have nothing to do with them. They can only hunt or ambush them when they occasionally come down into the forest.
Although they are the only top predators in this area, in the snow season, it seems that the fear beasts are hungry. Since the last time they ate, the two fear beasts have tried to ambush those on the mountain wall. Animals, but all ended in frustration. The checks and balances of the laws of nature are everywhere. It has allowed the Horror Beast to evolve many terrifying abilities, and it has also allowed the residents around the Horror Beast to evolve the ability to resist these abilities.
In order to fill up their stomachs, today the two horror beasts gave up staying in their back garden, which was so unpleasantly fat, and set off to the south of the forest. There was a group of mammoths there. Compared with the animals on the mountain wall, they were obviously mammoths. It’s even harder to deal with, but these guys on the mountain have not come down, and the hungry predators have to go to the mammoth to try their luck.
Li Shizhao didn’t know why the White Tiger had been hiding and hiding around the terrifying beasts for so long, and suddenly gave up following them behind them, and instead stayed in the north.
After the terrifying beast set off for a while, Bai Hu arranged for Xiao and another wolf tribe orc to go to the south of the small forest to guard. It seemed that he was going to decide to make a big move in their lair while the terrifying beast was away.
Li Shizhao also realized the reason for keeping the wolf tribe orcs in human form. It was simple, the beast form of the wolf tribe couldn’t climb the tree. In the event of a situation requiring evacuation, the tree was undoubtedly the safest way to retreat. The guard locations of these two wolf clan orcs would definitely choose a big tree with a wider view.
When the animals on the mountain saw that the giant beast finally gave up and left, they seemed to be relieved. They were used to seeing terrifying predators like the terrifying beast. The same animal is in the eye. These white guys descended into the forest one after another, some licked the snow water, and some began to look for some food on the ground that was not on the mountain wall.
The Tiger Orcs spread out silently without telling them. Li Shizhao also left the white tiger’s back tacitly, and quickly found a big tree to climb up. The wolf tribe orcs also chose a location to ambush.
Li Shizhao sat on the high tree fork and took out the dry food and started eating with snow water. Since the start of this terrible hide-and-seek game, not only the tiger tribe orcs are hungry, but other people also eat without meals, after all. It would be too tragic if something or something caused the Horror Beast to turn around and find it along the way.
The vision from the heights was very clear, and Li Shizhao was very thankful that he had chosen a good angle and clearly saw an exceptionally wonderful hunting.
Seven or eight tigers scattered around, switching positions cleverly under the cover of the bushes under the woods, as if they had a tacit understanding in the usual training, and the white tigers were the first to attack this group of animals.
Although this group of big guys were startled to run, seeing that the offender was not big, they all turned around and lowered their heads, preparing to use their own corners and heavy shocks to resist the attack.
However, behind them exposed, several tigers also launched an impact at the same time, which caught the animals by surprise. Suddenly, they had no time to adjust their formation. They panicked and then they didn’t know which one suddenly took the lead and fled towards the mountain wall. go with. For a long time, the experience accumulated in the struggle against the fearful beasts tells them: the mountain wall is the only safe refuge.
This also brings a negative negative effect. Whenever a danger occurs, their first reaction is not to respond positively but to flee to the mountain wall. It is undoubtedly stupid to expose the back to the predator.
The tigers are obviously quite knowledgeable about rounding up such large-sized creatures. A few tigers ran and expelled them close to the body, squeezing their space, and a few others attacked and threatened from the side. They originally ran in groups to form natural protection with speed and weight. In this way, the ethnic group was cut apart.
From the perspective of Li Zhixun, this picture is really shocking. The swarms of animals running on the snow stepped on the snow foam and surging like waves. A few orange dots resembled the precise cutting lines when cutting the cake. This group of running white cakes was cut to pieces, completely losing the terrifying power of the impact. But the only white tiger was escorted to the rear, expelling the entire group of animals and rushing in the designated direction.
In the end, the tigers surrounded a small group of five or six animals, including a very young individual. There is no need for complicated tactics anymore. The tigers rushed forward. Two or three people stared at one and started **** probing and biting. Some climbed up the back of the animal from behind, and some attacked the throat from the side. The predators besieged, the fate of these animals is self-evident. The two tigers who fled the besieged animal didn’t pay attention, and didn’t even cast their eyes.
These two animals, who had just escaped and were panicked, just let go, let go of their hooves, and ran towards the mountain desperately. Many javelins flew from different angles, completely shattering their last ray of hope. The escaped prey were pinned one by one.
At this time, Baihu listened, and the wolf tribe orc warned in the distance did not hear any news. This is good news, which proves that the Horror Beast has really gone to find the group of mammoths, and I am afraid that it will not come back in a short time.
The white tiger gave an order, and the tigers began to gluttonous. At this time, the chest of the prey whose belly was torn apart was still exuding steaming heat. This is undoubtedly the best food that tigers can eat for many days.
Bai Hu snatched a prey under the tree and uttered a “whoop” at Li Shizhen above.
Li Shizhao got down the tree neatly. Some of the wolves who got out of nowhere were carrying their prey and were using snow water to treat them, and some of them were holding the firewood they had picked up in their hands, which quickly set fire to them. They have done this neat process many times on the road and are very skilled.
The little animal that Bai Hu was holding had a javelin inserted in his body. It was not an obsidian spear head, but a white spear head. It was the Tyrannosaurus javelin used by Li Shizong. Li Zhitong took off the javelin, but Bai Hu didn’t mean to eat the prey immediately. Instead, he took the prey on the tree and placed it on the fork.
The place for cooking was chosen on a **** where the woods and cliffs transitioned. No one knew how long the terrifying beasts would return. It was a quick fix, and they had to reserve time for more preparations. This piece of wood seems to be the cemetery that Baihu chose for the terrifying beast. Li Zhizhen, who understood this, kept playing back the various terrains nearby while cooking, trying to find a more advantageous way to defeat the terrifying beast. .
There is no doubt that the conditions this time are too harsher than the last time. They don’t have much time to prepare. Don’t think about activities like digging. One is that there are not enough people, and the other is that the ground is frozen hard. , I don’t know how much work it takes to dig a trap.
The last time I dealt with the female tyrannosaurus fell into the rocks, the wells could not be dug, the rocks…There is no other high ground besides the cliffs where the animals inhabit, but the terrifying beasts should be lured to such a close place and on the top of the high cliff. It is even more unrealistic to pile enough large and many stones on it to get two horror beasts at once.
However, there are natural ways to deal with the enemy on the snow. Looking at the white prey on the ground, Li Shizhao’s heart moved, eating barbecue and writing and drawing with the white tiger on the snow. At this time, Bai Hu didn’t mean to sell Guanzi anymore, but Li Shizhen was surprised at his plan. However, this kind of hands-on work obviously had more ideas in Li Zhizhu’s mind. The two of them have perfected the plan with one meal.
In fact, there is no need for too complicated ideas at all, as long as it is effective, a set of plans is sufficient.
After simply filling the stomach, the fire did not go out immediately, and the ice and snow in the pot was still heating, and then everyone started to work separately. It can only be said that the White Tiger reserved the decision of the wolf tribe orcs to maintain the human form, which is really wise. Their final plan requires a lot of manpower to implement, after all, the animal form is not as flexible as the human form.
The first location chosen by Li Shizhao and Baihu was in the forest, between two tall trees, which were about seven or eight meters apart. After Li Shizhao tied the eye-catching animal skins to the trunk, a group of people began to get busy. They first cleared the snow, and then nailed long slender sticks into the ground at the positions marked by Li Shizhen’s painting and the white tiger.
These wooden sticks were brought out from the valley under the instruction of the white tiger. They were originally used to make javelins, but they were cut into two because they were originally thin and could easily be nailed into the ground. The remaining length was only 30%. After about a centimeter, the insidiousness of the white tiger was completely exposed. He motioned to a wolf tribe orc to pour a pile of things out of the animal skins. In the sound of the sound, these black things gleamed in the sun. It is to deal with the obsidian spear head that is not installed.
Everyone assembled the javelins one by one on the wooden sticks on the ground as usual. This obsidian javelin stuck upside down on the ground refracted dazzling light in the sun. Li Shizhao stepped forward and adjusted the angles of the javelins one by one, making them all slightly inclined to the south at a seventy-degree angle, and even supported them one by one with Y-shaped twigs.
Then an orc came over with a pan of melting snow water, sweating profusely. Li Shizhao took it and poured the snow water down the javelins one by one, making sure that the underside of each javelin was soaked. Then Li Shizhao opened his backpack. Apart from the food, it was the “learning results” he had learned from Yang Apa for a long time.
Li Shizhao opened a package of dried leaves and carefully applied the powder to the javelin one by one. Then close up the folded leaves and carefully clean his hands with the ice and snow on the side.
The busy tigers on the other side have already returned, just for fear that there is not enough snow next to them. The white tiger leads the pack, and the animal skins they are dragging are full of snow.
Li Zhizhu and a group of werewolf orcs spread the soft snow on the javelin layer by layer, especially around the javelin, being careful not to overwhelm the javelin, and let the snow completely cover it. When it was finally complete, Li Shizhao swept lightly with a big broom made of a branch, and the ground was white again, and it was as smooth as before, and there was no way to see the murderous intent buried deep under the thick snow.
Li Shizhao made a thin rope from the snow-white skin of the animal just now, and after properly arranging it on the two trees, Bai Hu carefully checked it again and there was no problem.
The group withdrew again on the small slope, and the second pot of snow water had already burned. The wolf tribe orcs inserted wooden sticks almost parallel to the slope, about ten meters below the slope, installed the javelin head as before, and arranged it properly. Everyone began to water the slope, repeating the actions of melting and watering the snow without stopping. The temperature of the water melted from the snow was not high. Once it was poured on, the whole side of the **** quickly became icy.
This small **** is a downward **** from south to north. Forty degrees is not too steep, only a hundred meters long. Seeing the javelins standing upside down on the ice without ice and snow is like the hideous barbs on the ice armor, which is daunting.
Finally, under the sign of Baihu, the edge of the high ground on the small **** was also poured with some water. Li Shizhao used some branches to tie up something like a flat plate, and he didn’t know what it was for.
After Li Shizheng arranged everything and repeatedly explained all the plans and steps, the orcs were finally hidden on the big tree on the edge of the high ground, holding the thick rope specially made in the valley, holding their breath, Just wait for the arrival of the terrifying beast.
This time, the wait was extremely long and anxious.
One day and one night later, the long-lost warning whistle sounded, and it sounded again in one long and two short periods. That’s right, this is not a bird’s chirping, it is indeed a pre-appointed signal.
Li Zhitong replied two short and one long tweets, indicating that the signal had been received. At this time, he was squatting on the big tree at the first ambush, and the white tiger had already set off with the dead stiff animal in his mouth.
Before long, as Li Shizun and Bai Hu confessed to everyone, everyone heard an earth-shattering angry roar. Although all the orcs were psychologically prepared because of the advance confession, and even they have had the experience of **** battles in the wild, they were shivered by the terrible sound, such a terrible howling close to their ears, It was as if the giant beast opened its blood basin in front of its own eyes.
This kind of direct confrontation with an invincible opponent is completely different from the previous cautious hide-and-seek. Although the latter is thrilling and thrilling, the terrifying beasts are in the light, they are in the dark, and they always have a psychological advantage. This roar is telling everyone that this advantage has disappeared, and the terrifying beasts have already known their existence, and they must face this terrible predator directly!
It’s not the first time that Li Shizhao has heard this roar that seems to be spewing molten liquid from the depths of hell. His eyes are locked to the south, and the javelin is firmly held in his hand, which is covered by the snow-covered forest. Out of sight, he couldn’t see the situation of Baihu for a while, however, the best news was that there was no sound at this time.
Soon, the white tiger appeared in Li Shizhao’s sight while holding his prey. His speed had obviously soared to the extreme on the snowy ground. Li Shizhao’s pupils shrank, and the speed of the terrifying beast was so fast? ! This speed is already faster than their estimated value, and even Baihu is forced to run at this extreme speed that consumes his energy!
But all this is still in their pre-arranged script. Their poaching behavior and the **** smell of the prey in the terrestrial beast territories have greatly stimulated the terrible beasts. They really will not let this behavior be allowed between predators. , The ownership of the prey will most likely become a life-and-death struggle in the end.
Moreover, the prey chosen by the White Tiger was still ambushed by the Horror Beast without catching it for many days, and it ignited the Horror’s anger.
It’s like planting a fruit tree in my back garden and bearing fruit. The owner has been coveting it for a long time, but because the fruit grows too high to be picked, he can only go out to relieve his greed. When he comes back, he finds that the fruit has been picked and the thief still holds it in his mouth. The fruit is showing off in front of you, and no one can swallow this breath, let alone the most terrifying top predator in the entire north. It can only be said that Bai is too good at pulling hatred, put in the game, a proper MT talent.
They have occupied such a vast territory for a long time, and the provocateurs, including their kinsmen, have been severely defeated by them, leaving their lives behind! How dare this tiny fellow provoke the dignity of the top predator so much! Only blood can wash away this humiliation and calm the anger of top predators. Of course, the prey must remain!
With the heavy and swift stepping sound, Li Shizhao heard the rumbling pace again. Unlike the turbulent sense of Tyrannosaurus’s pace, the horror beast’s pace is lighter and quicker. Although it still has a certain heaviness, it is in rhythm. It’s really fast, not one or two points. This is probably the advantage of the longer legs.
The white tiger drank its prey and ran fast under the tree where Li Shizhen was located. Outside the heavy feet of the terrifying beast, Li Zhizhen could still hear the white tiger running and bringing up snowflakes and heavy breathing. Holding the javelin and looking at the terrifying beast approaching, Li Shizhu narrowed his eyes, and the success or failure depends on this moment.
