Chapter 11: Size is the Foundation of Power – Whale Dragon
Chapter 11: Size is the Foundation of Power – Whale Dragon
Japanese netizens were expecting a spectacular show of the original crocodiles being wiped out, but when they discovered that more than a dozen were still alive and huddled in the water, they were immediately annoyed.
"What kind of skill is it to hide in the water? Come out and fight if you dare!"
"Heh, it's only clinging to life for a little while. Do you think your pathetic Primal Crocodiles can stay in the water forever?"
"When they get hungry and crawl out on their own, they'll still be the dead under my ridged dragon's feet."
"Six stages already, this is just the beginning, what's the rush? Take your time~"
Chinese netizens scoffed, wanting to refute, but looking at the dozen or so crocodiles huddled in the water in the picture, they were indeed not very confident.
Global Joint Command Center.
The top officials of the Dragon Kingdom all breathed a sigh of relief.
Thankfully, not all of them are dead.
But while I felt relieved, a weight still lingered in my heart.
Did the crocodile naturally know how to swim, or was it forced to hide there?
If it's the latter, they'll crawl out on their own when they're hungry, while the skeletal dragons will still be waiting on the shore.
The higher-ups in the Sakura Ward didn't look too pleased, but they certainly wouldn't back down verbally.
One of them spoke with a smile, his tone light and casual.
You can hide for a while, but you can't hide forever.
Another person chimed in.
"Our raptor will instinctively roam around the area even without any interference card commands."
"As long as your crocodiles dare to show their heads, they'll be prey delivered right to your door."
The third person was even more direct, leaning back in his chair with his arms crossed, glancing sideways at the Dragon Kingdom area.
"Which dinosaur from other countries wasn't a top predator? Only your toad has to hide in the water to survive."
Although the representatives from the other countries did not say it explicitly, their facial expressions said it all.
In their eyes, the crocodile was just taking a few more breaths; once it climbed ashore, the outcome would be the same.
No one from the Dragon Kingdom region responded.
But everyone's brows were furrowed even more tightly than before.
Commander Hua stared at the boy eating sunflower seeds on the screen, his brows furrowed.
"Have you... considered this crisis?"
He asked in a low voice, as if he were asking Lin Xia, or perhaps himself.
Lin Xia, of course, couldn't hear it.
He still had his legs crossed, his gaze calmly fixed on the sky, a faint smile even playing on his lips.
Within the game, the flow of time subtly accelerates.
The image on the dome was aimed at other animals.
(In-game) A few days later.
In a vast fern thicket, the fates of several vegetarians begin to intersect.
The bear-like whale dragon is enormous, nearly four meters tall at the shoulder, like a moving small mountain. It lowers its head to nibble on the ferns and pine branches on the high ground, and each breath is accompanied by a deep rumble.
Although John Bull's Tetanurae was far from evolving into a giant predator of the Cretaceous, it was already a force to be reckoned with in the Early Jurassic.
It greedily tore at the fern leaves, its tail swishing behind it like a whip ready to be lashed out at any moment.
The Indian Protoceratops was the smallest and most cautious, always keeping its distance from them and grazing on low-lying ferns and cycads.
The monkey-like Ankylosaurus, like the later-developed tail club and bone plates, had thick leather armor and a low-slung body that made it look like a moving rock.
The aroma of food filled the air.
Resources are limited.
The conflict erupted when a whale dragon accidentally wandered into another territory.
The Tessaurus was the first to issue a warning, its deep roar echoing through the ferns, the scales on its neck standing up slightly, and its tail held high.
It had been eyeing that thriving fern for a long time.
The whale dragon stopped, turned its head to look at the other party, and exhaled a thick cloud of air from its nose.
provocative?
It strides forward with its powerful limbs, walking straight toward the Tetanurae, each step causing the ground to tremble slightly.
The Tetanurae refused to back down and took the initiative to attack, biting hard at the side of the Cetosaurus.
However, its teeth merely scraped across the whale dragon's thick hide, leaving only shallow bloodstains, which were far from causing fatal damage.
The whale dragon, in pain, swung its heavy head and slammed it into the shoulder of the tetanuran like a giant hammer.
That impact was incredibly powerful.
The Tessaurus staggered a couple of steps after being hit, almost losing its balance.
A flicker of panic crossed its eyes.
The size and weight of the whale dragon were far beyond its imagination; a head-on collision was simply not even in the same league.
Just then, the monkey's shielded ankylosaurus was caught in the blast and rushed into the center of the battlefield in a panic.
It tried to slip away through the gap between the two, but was struck on the back by the tail of the Tessaurus, its thick scales making a dull thud.
It lay down on the ground, then sprang to its feet and fled in another direction.
The Indian Protoceratops had long since retreated far away, standing on the edge of the high ground, chewing on a few fern leaves, clearly in a spectator's posture.
The battle lasted less than ten minutes.
There is only one choice for Tetanurae.
retreat.
Its bite force could not penetrate the whale dragon's thick skin, and its size could not withstand the whale dragon's repeated heavy impacts.
Continuing to fight will only waste your energy and may even result in serious injury.
Meaningless.
With a final, unwilling growl, the Tessaurus turned and strode away from the fern thicket.
The whale dragon did not pursue; it simply stood still, raised its neck, and let out a deep, long sound.
The victor's declaration.
In the distance, the Protoceratops silently lowered its head and continued to graze.
The shielded ankylosaurus had long since disappeared into the depths of the fern thicket.
The silhouette of the Tetanurae receded into the distance.
This fern resource has been given to the bear's whale dragon.
There was no bloodshed, no death.
But the outcome is already decided.
Global Joint Command Center.
Although the cheers in the bear section were kept low, their excitement was impossible to hide.
"With its size, the whale dragon is invincible in the early stages; nothing can stop it!"
"Eating this fern forest will increase my size, allowing me to become a Titan Dragon sooner...hehe."
"Keep the interference cards for now. Once we've completely overwhelmed them in size, we'll wipe them all out."
"I wouldn't dare say first place, but top three? Absolutely a chance."
Russian netizens in China also went wild, with comments flooding the screen.
The expressions of the higher-ups in other countries and regions were not so pleasant.
accurate.
I'm very unhappy.
But no way.
In the Early Jurassic period, the size of whales like the dinosaurs was a game-changer.
Even if a carnivorous dinosaur came, it would have to think twice before attacking that moving mountain.
The high-ranking officials in the U.S. region gritted their teeth but remained silent.
The people in the Indian district frowned and muttered a few words under their breath, but no one could hear them.
John Bull's representative looked the worst.
After all, their own Tetanurae had just been knocked away by a Wailord. Although they wouldn't admit it, they were cursing inwardly.
Dragon Kingdom District.
Commander Hua stared blankly at the screen, tapping his fingers twice slowly on the table.
Whale Dragon... Wow, that's powerful!
It's a pity Lin Xia missed it...
However, he glanced at the scene involving Lin Xia.
The boy remained calm and composed, and even started eating a second plate of sunflower seeds.
He didn't know where this kid's confidence came from...
I wonder how the original crocodile is doing now?
Is there... sigh
