&;!----&; Chapter 1780 Megaphyll Dragonfly

But at this critical moment, something suddenly appeared in the sky, and a huge shadow shrouded the battlefield.

Zhao Zhongyao and Feifei looked at the entire battlefield, and suddenly there was a huge shadow, and the two of them quickly looked up.

At this time, Zhao Zhongyao and Feifei saw a very huge monster suddenly appearing in the sky. However, it looks like this monster is very much like a dragonfly on Earth. Two huge transparent wings trembled in the sky, easily maintaining the balance of the body.

The wingspan of the two wings is about two or three meters. The body is about one meter long. The whole appearance is really like a dragonfly on the earth. The color of the body is yellow and the head is black. There are also some long cilia on the body.

The body is also very similar to that of dragonflies on Earth, with a large round head. There is also a slender body. On its round head, there is a big mouth with two huge pointed teeth in the mouth.

Seeing this thing, Feifei exclaimed, 'What kind of monster is this? Why is it similar to the dragonfly on our earth. '

Of course Zhao Zhongyao also saw this flying monster. When he took a closer look, he knew what kind of monster it was.

‘This should be Meganeurus. Zhao Zhongyao said suddenly.

As soon as Feifei heard what his father said, he asked curiously, 'Dad, what did you say. This monster is called a giant vein dragonfly. What is Meganeurus, does dad know this monster very well! '

After hearing Feifei's words, Zhao Zhongyao said, "Of course, I know this kind of monster very well. Let me tell you something about this giant vein dragonfly!" '

‘Okay, I also want to know what the origin of this monster is. Feifei looked at Zhao Zhongyao and said.

Next, Zhao Zhongyao told Feifei some knowledge about giant veins.

Meganeuron, also known as giant-tailed dragonfly or giant-tailed dragonfly, is a kind of insect from the Carboniferous period hundreds of millions of years ago, which is close to modern dragonflies in appearance. Its wings are 1.5 cm wide, and it is the largest insect species known to have ever appeared on the earth, but it was extinct as early as the Permian period 100 million years ago. It feeds on other insects and small amphibians.

How meganeurons were able to grow to such a large size during the Carboniferous has been the focus of debate, because the way oxygen diffuses through the trachea to the insect's body limits their size, and the size of this prehistoric insect exceeds this limit. . At first it was pointed out that Meganeura was able to fly because there was more oxygen in the atmosphere at that time than usual. This theory was not accepted at first? However, research on the relationship between macrocephaly and the availability of oxygen has confirmed this statement. And if this theory is correct? Meganeura's extinction may have been caused by a drop in oxygen levels, and they certainly couldn't survive in today's environment.

Meganeura's wingspan .feet (.meters)? Scientists think they eat mostly other flying and crawling insects? Even some smaller early amphibians.

The ancient centipede, with a body stretching to .ft (.m), may have eaten both plants? and small animals. Is one of the best, it is a wide-winged horseshoe crab sea scorpion? Lived between .000 million and .000 million years ago. It probably fed on our first marine ancestors? Also ate everything else they encountered. The body length can reach feet (. meters), and it is the largest arthropod in the history of biological evolution on the earth.

Zhao Zhongyao told Feifei some knowledge about this giant vein dragonfly. After Feifei heard this, he had a general understanding of this kind of meganeurosaurus.

'Dad, what do you mean? This is also a very ferocious prehistoric animal. Feifei looked at Zhao Zhongyao and said.

After hearing Feifei's words, Zhao Zhongyao said, "Yes, this is a ferocious ancient animal, and it is the largest insect ever discovered by human beings." '

'Then what does this Meganeurus come to this place for. Is it going to devour these big spiders! ’ Feifei thought, at this time? Suddenly such a large giant dragonfly appeared, it must be coming towards these big spiders.

'That's right? This big dragonfly must be aiming at these big spiders. These spiders may have been the prey of this large dragonfly. ' Zhao Zhongyao thought so too.

Just when Zhao Zhongyao and Feifei said this, this giant vein dragonfly had already started to attack these big spiders on the ground. These big spiders originally wanted to fight in groups. Here? There was going to be a war. But when this giant vein dragonfly appeared, the situation on the battlefield changed immediately.

When these big spiders saw a big monster appearing in the sky? They all started to run away. These dozens of big spiders no longer want to fight in groups. Immediately they began to scatter in all directions.

Of course? They all ran to the cave under the rock where they had previously taken shelter. The metal blue spider ran to the cave under the rock where it stayed just now. And the giant crab spiders also ran to the cave under the rock where they stayed just now.

Now the two groups of spiders have no time to fight. Natural enemies are coming? They have to run away quickly. Anyone who runs slowly will definitely be the prey of natural enemies.

These big spiders are now running away in all directions, each running to the cave where they stayed before. It's just that due to the entrance of the cave, only one large spider can pass through. So many spiders all rushed to the entrance of the cave at once. If you want to go in, it will definitely not be so easy.

Therefore, this area became the place where the spiders ran away in a panic. Just because the hole is too small. Only one of these large spiders can pass at a time. Since then, there have been many big spiders

The spider has no time to escape into the hole.

This time, it created an opportunity for the giant vein dragonfly. The meganeurons are now starting to massacre. It threw itself directly onto the ground, and immediately bit a metallic blue spider. But it did not fly away with the prey immediately, but after killing the prey, it continued to bite the second one. It seems that this is still a greedy guy.

Those big spiders that hadn't run into the cave also rushed towards the entrance of the cave. It's just that Meganeurus is not welcome. It was directly blocked at the entrance of the hole. Seeing those big spiders running to the entrance of the cave, he unceremoniously started killing them.

That's when this meganeuronfly was catching its prey. Suddenly, several huge shadows appeared on the ground. Soon, a few giant veins flew over from afar again. It seems that they all know that there is a group of big spiders here. So, let's all share this big meal.

At first, they all ate some big spiders. After all, when they first arrived, not all the big spiders here had escaped into the cave. They still have a chance to catch these big spiders. But after a while, these big spiders almost ran into the cave. Not much left.

At this moment, there are too many monks and too little porridge. It is already impossible for these few giant vein dragonflies to eat their prey. So, they fought together.

They not only compete with each other, but also fight immediately. Originally, Zhao Zhongyao and Feifei wanted to watch the two groups of big spiders fight. But now it has become a few giant veins fighting here.

Once these few meganeuric dragonflies started fighting here, it created a convenient condition for the big spiders that hadn't escaped yet, and they immediately took the opportunity to sneak into the nearby cave.

When these meganeurons reacted, those big spiders had already disappeared without a trace. When they saw that the big spiders were gone. It was as if they were all blaming each other.

These big dragonflies started to fight again. At first, I was still fighting on the ground, and then I flew into the sky to fight again.

Zhao Zhongyao and Feifei originally wanted to watch the big spiders fight in groups. But what they didn't expect was that a few huge giant vein dragonflies suddenly appeared. After these meganeurons appeared, they scared away the two groups of big spiders.

It's just that the scene of these big dragonflies fighting in the sky is also very shocking. This kind of scene is definitely very rare.

Looking at this shocking scene, Zhao Zhongyao and Feifei felt very shocked in their hearts. After all, such giant dragonflies simply don't exist on Earth. This is a species that existed on Earth hundreds of millions of years ago.

But this kind of species that has long been extinct on the earth has appeared on Mercury again, which is really amazing.

Just watching these big dragonflies fight is not very interesting. Feifei looked at Zhao Zhongyao again and said, Dad, should we get out of here quickly. If these big dragonflies find us, will they come up and bite us? Will they see us as prey too?

After hearing Feifei's words, Zhao Zhongyao said, 'That's right, let's take this opportunity and sneak away! Who knows if these big dragonflies will attack us. '

After finishing speaking, Zhao Zhongyao took Feifei and ran past the big rock next to him. The two of them were hiding next to this big rock just now.

Now that Zhao Zhongyao and Feifei saw that these big dragonflies were still fighting fiercely there, the two of them hurried away.

Originally, Zhao Zhongyao and Feifei thought that they looked different from those big spiders. These big dragonflies probably don't like them too much.

Therefore, Zhao Zhongyao and Feifei were not particularly worried when they walked forward. The two of them just thought that those big dragonflies were still fighting there just now, and they would definitely not notice the two of them.

But what the two of them didn't expect was that they only ran a dozen meters away. These big dragonflies suddenly spotted Zhao Zhongyao and Feifei.

Seeing such a big prey, these big dragonflies seemed to suddenly become interested. After all, just now they were fighting each other for food. The result was that those big spiders hid in the cave.

As soon as these big spiders hid in the cave, those big dragonflies had nothing to do with them. After all, it is impossible for these big dragonflies to move those big rocks, and those big rocks weigh hundreds of tons. Not to mention these big dragonflies, even if a few elephants came, it would be impossible to remove those big stones.

After these big dragonflies saw those big spiders hiding in the big rocks, they had no choice but to complain to each other, and then they fought. I don't want to eat big spiders anymore, I just want to compete with myself first.

But what they didn't expect was that there were actually two huge 'prey' hidden beside the big rock. And it is a huge prey they have never seen before.

Although these two 'prey' are a bit strange. These two big dragonflies have never been seen before. But they didn't eat a few big spiders just now, so they might still be hungry. I saw two upright 'monsters' running out from the side of the big rock. They are welcome.

So, when Zhao Zhongyao and Feifei ran for more than ten meters. These big dragonflies suddenly started chasing Zhao Zhongyao and Feifei.

When Zhao Zhongyao and Feifei saw the situation, they felt that the situation was not good. Even Qu Yuqian and Tiantian, who were sitting in the spaceship, hurriedly looked at Zhao Zhongyao and Feifei and shouted.

'Zhongyao, Feifei, you guys hide quickly, those big dragonflies are chasing you. ’ Qu Yuqian immediately began to remind Zhao Zhongyao and Feifei.

‘Dad, brother, you have to be careful. These big dragonflies are starting to attack you. ’ Tiantian also started to remind my dad and brother.

Zhao Zhongyao

Seeing the situation, I had no choice but to look at Feifei and say, 'Feifei, let's hide behind the big rock. '

Zhao Zhongyao saw that there were many big rocks in this place. Although there is not much grass on the ground. But there are still many big rocks on the ground. Almost like a stone forest. These stones are also oddly shaped, and there are all kinds of shapes.

Feifei also saw a huge and strangely shaped boulder beside him, so he and his father quickly hid behind the boulder. Behind this big rock, there are some taller plants that look like shrubs.

Zhao Zhongyao and Feifei quickly got into these bushes. In this way, the two of them are safer.

Because when these big dragonflies flew to them, they couldn't find them. It's just that these big dragonflies didn't seem to be reconciled, so they started searching in place again.

Zhao Zhongyao and Feifei hid in that bush. Neither of them dared to vent their breath. I'm afraid that these big dragonflies will be discovered.

These big dragonflies are flying around in place. They also seem to feel very strange. Just now they clearly saw two 'monsters' running upright running to this place. But when they flew over, they couldn't find the two 'monsters' running upright.

Zhao Zhongyao and Feifei hid in this bush, and the two of them carefully observed the movement outside. I just want to see if these big dragonflies will find them. If they find out, then they have to find a way to deal with them.

Zhao Zhongyao observed the surrounding terrain. This is a place full of strange rocks. Except for some big rocks, there are some bushes.
