Chapter 21: Hairless Little Monkey, Don't Make Your Crocodile Uncle Laugh
Chapter 21: Hairless Little Monkey, Don't Make Your Crocodile Uncle Laugh
The scene was so bad that anyone who didn't know better would think it was some kind of cult ritual.
John, the tall, thin man, watched this scene and felt so jealous his teeth ached.
"What's so great about it?" he muttered. "It's just using an interference card, right? Without an interference card, could your Southern Cross Dragon even bite a Water Dragon?"
He was right.
According to normal biological data, an adult Southern Cross Dragon weighs only about 30 kilograms, while even an immature Water Dragon weighs 100 kilograms.
They are similar in size, but their weights are worlds apart.
A predator weighing 30 kilograms would normally need to use a weapon that can kill a 100-kilogram prey by itself – biubiubiu – but guns are obviously not feasible in this era.
So Jack directly used a cheat code, the interference card.
He added a powerful bite force to the Southern Cross Dragon.
In his words: "You'll use it sooner or later anyway, so you might as well use it sooner."
If a species becomes dominant early on, what chance do other species have in the later stages of observation?
Jack's logic is simple—first establish an advantage, then use that advantage to snowball, making it bigger and bigger until other species can't catch up!
This method, though crude, is indeed effective.
In the research team of the Dragon Kingdom, the female staff member looked at the Southern Cross Dragon eating on the light screen and couldn't help but sigh:
"If only this Southern Cross Dragon belonged to our Dragon Kingdom!"
She just made a casual remark, without any other meaning.
But those words were like a thorn, piercing the hearts of everyone present.
Yes, if the Southern Cross Dragon is from the Dragon Kingdom...
Now they no longer have to live in fear and anxiety, no longer have to watch the original crocodile soaking in the water, afraid to come ashore, and no longer have to be ridiculed by audiences from other countries.
They could gloat in the live chat like American viewers, shouting "We are the champions!"
pity……
Even Old Li's eyes were slightly flickering.
If the Southern Cross Dragon belongs to the Dragon Kingdom, then the Dragon Kingdom will surely become the hegemon of this era, just like last time.
Barring any unforeseen circumstances, there will be absolutely no surprises!
Unfortunately, there is no such thing.
And all they can do now is believe in Wang Lin!
No matter what they say, they still have a way out.
After all, the planners will give them a heads-up before the punishment is about to begin, giving them time to evacuate and retreat!
But Wang Lin had no way out.
He could only place his hopes on those weaker crocodiles.
Hopefully, these crocodiles can survive!
If the original crocodile could hear and understand Old Li's inner feelings, he would surely say disdainfully, "Little hairless monkey, don't try to make your Uncle Crocodile laugh."
Your Uncle Crocodile has lived much longer than you humans have existed.
While you were still studying dinosaur fossils and prehistoric fossils, your Uncle Crocodile was already living in the same era as dinosaurs and prehistoric creatures.
Although Uncle Crocodile has always been considered a Tier 2 character due to its mechanics, those stronger than Uncle Crocodile can't survive as long as Uncle Crocodile, and those who can survive are not as strong as Uncle Crocodile.
For example, some T0-level characters have become T10086, and are now just sitting on the sidelines.
Right? A top-tier single-character ID from one of the twelve Chinese zodiac signs.
In ancient times, they were terrifying monsters that your Uncle Crocodile would fight while hanging around, but in modern times, they can only become your Uncle Crocodile's meal, and he can eat three of them in one bite.
No creature can remain the strongest forever, but there will always be creatures that maintain T2 strength.
What is strength?
That's real strength!
Wang Lin slumped on the sofa, looking at the original crocodiles still soaking in the water on the screen, a slight smile playing on his lips.
He knew that these little guys were doing something big that would change their own destiny.
For me, for the Dragon Kingdom, let's bravely start stacking buffs!
At this moment, both the crocodile bound to the observer of the Indian civilization and the dog-jawed beast bound to the observer of the Korean civilization had left due to hunger.
However, the original crocodiles did not surface directly.
Perhaps out of fear, or perhaps because they find living in the water quite pleasant, they continue to stay in the water, catching fish to survive.
The two groups of crocodiles were scattered on the river surface, with only their flat heads and protruding eyes showing.
Their bodies are completely submerged in the water, and their four short legs gently paddle underwater to maintain their position.
Occasionally, a crocodile would dive to the bottom of the water, use its claws to dig through the silt of the riverbed, and pull out an ancient fish, which it would swallow whole.
Then it floats up again and continues to lie on the surface of the water.
That pitiful, aggrieved little face made the Chinese audience frown.
Although they looked down on the original crocodile, they felt a pang of pity when they saw how pitiful it was.
To be honest, it's a little heartbreaking to see...
Yes, they were beaten so badly they were afraid to go ashore and could only stay in the water.
This life is just too stifling.
Thankfully, no other countries' observed species are going against them, otherwise I might have started ranting.
[Weren't you just calling Yuan E a piece of trash? Why are you feeling sorry for him now?]
I may curse, but that's my family's business, and it's none of the business of outsiders to bully us!
[Exactly! It's your own child; you can scold or discipline them as you please, but no outsider can even lay a finger on them!]
The mentality of Chinese audiences is so contradictory.
On one hand, they despise the original crocodiles for being useless, but on the other hand, they feel sorry for them being bullied.
Just like if your own child doesn't do well on a test, you can scold him for being stupid, but if Old Wang next door dares to say a bad word about your child, you'll fight him to the death.
Then, the images on the screen began to accelerate wildly, as if they had been sped up at super speed.
The clouds moved rapidly across the sky, and the alternation of day and night was as fast as someone frantically switching lights on and off in the sky.
Rivers change course, vegetation withers and flourishes, seasons change—everything is progressing at an incredible pace.
one day.
A week.
One month.
Three months.
Half a year.
One year.
In the footage, the crocodiles remained submerged in the water, with none of them coming ashore.
They seem to have reverted to their former aquatic habitat, completely forgetting that they are terrestrial animals.
During the day, they bask in the sun on the water's surface, and at night they sink to the bottom to avoid predators. When hungry, they dig for fish in the mud, and when thirsty, they simply open their mouths to drink water.
Life was frustrating, but at least I was alive.
A whole year has passed, and the original crocodile still hasn't come out of the water.
Viewers from other countries were shaking their heads in disbelief in the live chat.
What kind of trash did this Dragon Kingdom choose? They haven't dared to come ashore after a year?
[That's so cowardly! My pet turtles are braver than these.]
[This guy dares to participate in a competition? He should go home and raise pigs!]
[Don't even mention raising pigs, pigs are braver than this crocodile.]
Although the Chinese audience felt uncomfortable, they were powerless to refute it.
Because the facts are right in front of us—the original crocodile was indeed a coward.
Despite their cowardice, they survived.
This is enough.
