Reborn as a Giant Scorpion: Evolution by Consumption

"Why hasn't Griggs come back? He took a good drink and hid in the room to drink secretly, right?" said Badolf.

George shrugged his shoulders: "It is very possible. After all, he is an alcoholic, we must not underestimate the great attraction of wine to alcoholic!"

Bola said, "I'll go and see."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Griggs walking out with two bottles of good wine.

"Why so long?" Badolf asked.

Griggs smiled and said, "I went to the bathroom. Well, on this wonderful night, let's have a good drink!"

While talking, Griggs opened the seal of the bottle and poured wine enthusiastically for everyone.

When Griggs walked to Kate's side and poured wine for her, Kate suddenly said: "Grrigs, how did you change your clothes? I remember that you were not wearing this suit before you took the wine."

The muscles on Griggs’s face trembled slightly and said, “That suit was accidentally soiled just now, so I changed it. Kate, you have a keen eye. Everyone hasn’t noticed this, but you One person found out."

As he said, he raised his glass to Kate: "Cheers to this beautiful day!"

Kate also raised his glass: "Cheers!"

But Kate didn't notice the cold murderous expression in Griggs's eyes when he turned around.

A quarter of an hour later, George put down his glass and said, "Well, I have to go to the laboratory to see. Don't drink too much, because tomorrow we have a lot of work to do!"

Kate also put down the glass and said, "I'll go with you."

George and Kate pushed the door into the laboratory. Before turning on the lights, Kate smelled a faint strange smell.

While Kate was still wondering what it was like, George had already turned on the light in the laboratory.

Kate and George were stunned at the moment the light was on!

"What about the aliens?" George asked Kate with a look of horror on his face.

Kate was stunned for a few seconds, then walked quickly to the edge of the pile of ice and checked it, and said, "It has escaped!"

"Escaped?" George murmured. "Hasn't it been dead for hundreds of thousands of years? How can it escape?"

Kate said: "It's alive! We have always assumed that it has been dead for hundreds of thousands of years, but in fact, it hasn't died, it's just in a dormant state!"

"I'm so negligent!" Kate said annoyedly. "There is a lungfish in America. When it encounters a dry season, it will get into the mud to rest. Some of this dormancy can last for several years."

"During the dormancy process, lungfish can not eat or drink, and the signs of life throughout the body are almost stopped. But once the rainy season comes, they will wake up again!"

George only recovered from the shock at this time: "Kate, you mean that the alien creature is not dead, it has been dormant, and now it has woken up?"

Kay nodded: "Besides, I can't think of any other possibilities!"

"It's terrible!" George said, "We missed a living alien!"

Kate looked solemn and said, "Mr. George, it may not be the worst to miss an alien creature! Do you remember the fangs of the alien creature? Just as Griggs said during the day, this alien creature I'm afraid it won't be a vegetarian!"

George was taken aback: "Kate, what are you worried about? Do you think it will come back to attack us?"

"I'm not sure," Kate said, "but we'd better be on guard."

When George and Kate walked back to the hall and resurrected the aliens and escaped, everyone in the hall was in an uproar!

Edward looked at George and asked, "George, what shall we do now? Do we need to pursue that alien creature?"

George considered for a few seconds, and then nodded: "Of course, we should at least give it a try. But for safety's sake, everyone should carry weapons and maintain a high degree of vigilance during the pursuit!"

Everyone went back to the room and took out their weapons. Most of them had pistols, and a few had shotguns and daggers.

"Go!" George said.

Everyone walked to the door, and it was dark outside.

Suddenly, Kate called out: "Wait a minute."

"What's the matter, Kate?" George asked.

Kate kept shooting on the snow with the bright flashlight in her hand, saying: "There are no footprints in the nearby snow! Unless the alien creature can fly, otherwise, it has to leave the camp, it will always leave its footprints!"

Bola wondered: "But why are there no footprints on the snow now?"

Kate slowly said: "If there are no traces of the aliens leaving, then there are only two possibilities, one is that the aliens will fly into the sky or escape, and the second is that it has not left our camp and is still hiding. Somewhere in our camp!"

George nodded: "In other words, we should start searching from our camp!"

His gaze swept over all the members and said: "We have a total of twelve people, each of which is a group of two. First, carefully search every place in our camp!"

"I'm in a team with Kate; Badolph, Carlo, you two in a team; Burla, Griggs, you two in a team; Henrik and Juliet, you two in a team: Edward, Carter, Two of you: Hill, Paul, two of you."

"Is there anything else you don't understand? If there is no problem, let's start!" As George spoke, he drew the pistol from the holster around his waist.

A few minutes later, Bura and Griggs walked into a warehouse in the camp.

While holding a flashlight to search for places in the warehouse where aliens might be hidden, Burla said to Griggs: "Grigos, where do you think that ugly alien would hide?"

Griggs said coldly: "It's hiding behind you!"

Bura was taken aback by Griggs' cold tone, turned her head quickly, and said: "Grrigs, stop making trouble, this is not the time to make a joke!"

The muscles on Griggs' face suddenly twitched, and his mouth suddenly split to both sides, revealing four fangs!
