You can evolve by surviving in the Ark

In the oppressive darkness, Qiao Liang saw shadows swimming around.

In the history of Aquamarine, Mosasaurus was the dominant ocean overlord in the late Cretaceous. As ancient marine reptiles, their limbs degenerated and became shorter, and webs evolved between their toes to facilitate swimming. Their broad tails and streamlined bodies allow them to swim with the grace and agility of a snake. This kind of marine giant with a body length of more than ten meters still maintains the body structure of breathing with lungs, and needs to hold its breath to survive, so that their living area is basically on the shallow shore of the sea.

But in the world of Ark, this creature named the deep-diving mosasaurus by Helena completely abandoned the habit of the mosasaurid family living on the shores of shallow seas, and its body length expanded to a full 50 meters - to Knowing that Ultraman Zero is only 48 meters tall, even if he were placed on the set of Ultraman with this size, he would still be considered a super beast of the ocean.

The majestic muscles cover the originally streamlined body, making its body look more burly and powerful. Complete genetic modification gave the deep-diving mosasaurus extremely powerful power, occupying a position as the top predator even on an isolated island ocean like a hell aquarium, becoming a terrifying sea creature that almost always wanders in the dark abyss. Strange.

Qiao Liang did not dare to get too close. He picked up the harpoon gun, aimed at the black shadow of the mosasaur swimming farther and farther away from him, and shot a powerful anesthetic crossbow arrow loaded with jellyfish toxin.

The black shadow swam farther and farther, blending into the darkness outside the field of vision.

Did you hit it?

Qiao Liang frowned and looked ahead. There was nothing in his limited field of vision.

Missed?

There was no response in the darkness beyond sight.

In the silence, all sounds were amplified by the senses. Qiao Liang could clearly hear his increasingly heavy breathing. The rolling bubbles were being discharged from the bottom of his mask, causing the water to surge.

huh... huh...

A dark and depressing environment can best inspire fear in human nature. His heartbeat accelerated involuntarily, Qiao Liang carefully controlled the fish dragon and swam forward while reloading the harpoon gun in his hand.

"Are you all in place?" Qiao Liang asked.

In fact, he didn't want any answers, he just needed someone to talk to him.

"All teams are in place and work is starting." Dave's voice came from the intercom, "I'm watching you from behind, leader."

Qiao Liang turned around and saw Dave riding an ichthyosaur following him from a distance, which made him feel much better.

"Chief, three o'clock!"

Qiao Liang immediately turned around, and without any warning, a Mosasaurus figure suddenly appeared in the darkness on the right front, and it rushed towards him with its bloody mouth open!

He had actually been mentally prepared, but when he saw this scene unexpectedly, Qiao Liang felt that his heart was about to burst. He quickly turned around with the fish and dragon.

For a moment, he thought of the inflexible steering setting of the deep-diving Mosasaurus in the game. Yes, that powerful narcotic crossbow arrow actually hit the target. It needed a huge amount of space to turn around, so when it reappeared, the direction changed from directly in front of him to to the right.

Damn, it takes so long to turn around!

Qiao Liang gritted his teeth and suppressed the ichthyosaur that was escaping at full speed.

The panic deep in his heart urged him: escape from here as quickly as possible! But his counterattacking rationality told him: If he wanted to lead the mosasaurus into the trapped dragon room, he must keep an appropriate distance.

It's okay, the mosasaurus can't catch up with the ichthyosaur.

Qiao Liang comforted himself, and the fear in his heart gradually subsided. He consciously slowed down the Ichthyosaurus a little and looked back.

The chasing maw was like leading into an unknown abyss, reminding Qiao Liang of the long, dark tunnel that school buses always drove into when he was a kid.

The tunnel collapsed as sharp-fanged jaws closed before him. In the deep sea, the sound spread louder than on land. Along with the loud noise, the violent water rushed into Qiao Liang's face.

Keep your distance, keep your distance...

Under Qiao Liang's control, the ichthyosaur and the mosasaurus chasing at full speed were far and near.

But although the mosasaurus couldn't catch up with the ichthyosaur, the pursuit speed was not too slow. In this process with no room for error, he couldn't calm down. The rhythm of breathing had been broken long ago. After realizing this, Qiao Liang slowed down his rapid breathing as calmly as possible, but he still felt suffocated and dizzy.

There is already extremely strong water pressure in the deep sea hundreds of meters below. The nitrogen that enters the capillaries with breathing is absorbed by the blood under high pressure. They take away the oxygen that should enter the blood circulation and form unstable nitric oxide - which to a certain extent leads to hypoxia in the human body. These unstable nitric oxides will continue to rob oxygen atoms, causing more serious hypoxia, and will also produce toxic nitrogen dioxide.

He began to cough uncontrollably, which only intensified the pain of suffocation.

A light blue light group appeared in front of him. It was the anglerfish placed in the trapped dragon room to guide him. Qiao Liang saw the open door of the giant beast.

But his vision gradually darkened, his limbs became paralyzed, and his consciousness began to blur... Qiao Liang could no longer care about anything else. If this trend continued, he would faint in a while.

Under his control, the ichthyosaur rushed into the trapped dragon room at full speed, and behind him, the chasing mosasaurus crashed into the cage tailor-made for it!

During the roaring earthquake, the soft sand on the seabed raised up dust explosions under the huge impact, covering the dozens of meters high steel dragon house.

"Roar--!"

The angry roar of the Mosasaurus sounded. It did not taste the expected prey. The anglerfish and the ichthyosaur swam out without any hindrance along the gap between the giant pillar cages.

"close the door--!"

The steel behemoth door closed slowly but firmly amidst the shouts of humans, and the mosasaur turned around in the trapped dragon room with difficulty. It turned its stubby neck and looked around, finally realizing the fact that it was trapped.

boom! ! !

The Mosasaurus slammed its head against the iron door. The loud noise was like an exploding depth charge, but the locked door showed no sign of opening. It opened its mouth and bit the steel pillar on the side again, its sharp fangs scratching against the metal, but the latter did not move at all.

The top of the head is also covered with thick steel plates that are airtight.

The survivors surrounding the trapped dragon room took out their harpoon guns and shot at the struggling trapped beast in the huge cage. The surging sea waves and constant roars were pushed far away in the deep sea as the Mosasaurus struggled violently.

……

Adam paddled his limbs and swam towards the end of the dark tentacles in a standard posture.

This dark sea monster that looks like an old ruler is obviously a mollusk, but at the intersection of these tentacles, there is a horny beak like a bird.

Adam threw the heavy package in his hand. The package contained fifty black pearls.

This kind of black pearl is a precious resource from the deep sea, especially on the Ark Island. There are not many ways to obtain it, and there are only a few types of creatures that can be produced regularly: trilobites crawling from the deep sea to land, eurypteran horseshoe crabs and ammonites hiding in corals, and the giant sea monster waving its tentacles in front of you - Tortoise. Giant squid.

Cute little otters can search for trophies during fishing, and there is also the possibility of obtaining black pearls, but the number is pitiful. A large number of black pearls can be obtained by killing the elite mosasaurus and elite Tost giant squid, but the existence of such ALPHA creatures themselves is even rarer.

Seeing all the black pearls disappear into the mouth of Tost Giant Squid, Adam swiped it with the implant:

"[Tost Giant Squid] (female), tameness: 34%"

It will take two more.

Adam silently estimated in his mind. The upper limit of Tost's giant squid being fed once is fifty black pearls, and three times it requires 150, and he only has a total of 120 and four black pearls in his hand.

Right now, there are enough gaps for 26 black pearls. But there is still time. After being fed for the first time, the Tost giant squid will not be fed again for a short period of time.

Adam thought, he looked around, and swam out while the tentacles were waving.

The dark tentacles, which were more than 30 meters long, were swung like giant black axes, and even briefly separated the sea water under the powerful force.

The thick blood surged, and the hard turtle shell fell apart. The freshwater carbon turtle, which had been sucked out by the squid girl, finally died of the whipping. Flexible tentacles wrapped its body and sent it into the mouth of the Tost giant squid.
