Chapter 1408 Egg

‘Bang——! ’

This is the sound of impact. [w.SuiMеng.lā

The scholar hit the ground hard.

"This is really... very high."

The scholar stood up from the ground, patted the dust on his body, checked whether there was any damage on himself, and looked up at the same time.

It has now reached... the bottom of the canyon.

Just now it was eaten by the huge dust crocodile, but the dust crocodile didn't like the appearance of eating machinery, so it spit out the scholar, and the scholar fell to the bottom of the valley.

This canyon is similar to common canyons. It is dark and silent, and the ground is covered with gravel. It seems to be nothing special.

The special thing is that there is a group of dust crocodiles here, gathering into a small group not far from the scholar.

"You are actually alive?" When the scholar walked over, the leader of the group of dust crocodiles...the adventurer looked at the scholar in surprise and said, "This is really not easy."

"I also want to know how you got down." The scholar glanced at the other dust crocodiles. There were originally a hundred, but now there are only ten here.

"I'll just say it directly." The adventurer said: "It's because of the sacrifices of most crocodiles that we can travel safely."

"Sacrifice?" the scholar said, "...did you do it on purpose?"

"Yes..." the adventurer said: "If you want to get to a safe place, you have to pass through many dangerous places, and it is impossible for us with so many crocodiles to reach it, so I brought them here and let them feed them. Head...primordial crocodile, so that you can take the opportunity to enter the canyon, and then take...shortcuts to reach safety faster."

"Primordial crocodile?" the scholar asked: "Is that big... dust crocodile lying on top?"

"Don't you know?" the adventurer said, "Those are our ancestors. Before we were intelligent, we were once such huge monsters."

"But then we grew smaller and smaller, and became what we are now, and some huge ancestors are still alive, and they live around our city." The adventurer said: "There is a shortcut to its nest, that is, this canyon. You can leave, but you have to find a way to deal with it, and what I chose was to feed it...with most of the members of the escape team."

The scholar discovered that this adventurer could actually say such things without any emotion...

It seems to be a very... cold character.

"Since you survived, you can join us, but don't do anything... you shouldn't do, you know?" After saying that, the adventurer turned to the other Dust Crocodile and said, "Okay, the other one A few may not have survived, so we won’t wait.”

Then, they walked towards one direction of the canyon together.

Scholars also followed them. Although scholars don't like this kind of role, they don't think it can harm themselves.

"These are...eggs?"

After walking for a while, the scholar found that there were many egg-shaped objects about the same height around him. Most of them had cracks on them, and some were only half-shaped, as if they had hatched.

"You will know after looking at it. This is the birth of a primitive crocodile." The adventurer did not take the lead, but walked in the second to last position, so he could chat with the scholar who walked at the back.

"There are quite a few, but are they really your ancestors? How did they become so small?" The scholar kept looking around. Suddenly, the scholar noticed something moving behind a complete egg.

"How do I know, if we were still that big, would we end up like this?" The adventurer said as he walked away. The scholar did not speak. The adventurer turned around and saw that the scholar was walking towards an egg. .

"What are you doing!" the adventurer shouted: "Don't touch that thing! It will alert the primitive crocodile!"

"I have not touched it," said the scholar, "but it has been touched."

"What was touched..." Before the adventurer could finish his words, it saw a very familiar creature - a three-legged pillar - crawling out from above the egg in front of the scholar.

"Ah!" The adventurer immediately exclaimed: "They are chasing us here! Run away!"

After its voice fell, all the other dust crocodiles glanced here, and then they all ran away in fear and disappeared in an instant.

The scholar didn't run away, but looked at the three-legged pillar standing on the egg. The three-legged pillar didn't seem to see the scholar or the group of dust crocodiles just now, and was still busy with its own affairs.

It's...injecting the egg.

The three-legged pillar stretched out a sharp needle from under the cylindrical body, and pierced the top of the egg, as if injecting something into the egg.

The injection lasted for ten seconds, and then the three-legged column retracted its needle and climbed to another egg next to it.

The scholar looked at the three-legged pillar, and then went to test the egg it stabbed. According to the scholar's test, he found that there was indeed a... primitive crocodile baby in the egg, which was alive and well and had a long body. It's very... healthy and should be out soon.

Therefore, scholars came up with the idea that maybe the dust crocodile grew so small because of the three-legged pillar. They specially modified the nuclear information of the original crocodile eggs and then cultivated the dust crocodile.

But what is it injecting now? You may not see the effect for a while, unless you smash the egg and slowly study the ingredients inside.

'Gulu...'

The scholar suddenly heard a sound, and then a crack appeared on the eggshell.

Could it be that... it's about to hatch?

The scholar took two steps back and saw more and more cracks in the eggshell in front of him. With a 'pop' sound, the whole egg exploded.

And out of it came a... Dust Crocodile.

It should be the cub of the original crocodile, but it looks exactly like the Dust Crocodile, even the height is the same.

"Are you a listener?"

Moreover, he can even speak.

...Why are you talking?

Scholars discovered that this newborn creature was actually communicating with it in the language of the Dust Crocodile, and it was spoken very standardly, and it didn't look like it was just born at all.

"What is an audience?" So the scholar immediately answered.

"The audience is...the audience." Although its words were very standard, it didn't seem to know how to describe it. The Dust Crocodile circled the ground, then looked up at the top of the canyon, and then said to the scholar: "Take me to find more listeners, okay? I'm going to tell them they're in danger."

"Who are you going to tell?" asked the scholar.

"Of course... have you ever seen a creature like me that looks just like me? I have to tell them, and I have to say a lot of things."

"You tell me... here first." The scholar said, "What do you know?" 8
