On their right wrist watches, the display showed that 61 people had survived.


The huge Brachiosaurus had trampled all over the gra.s.sland, and the scattered group of Diplodocuses had finally gathered back together. The Tyrannosaurus Rex and Sarcosuchus faced each other off in the distance while the Quetzalcoatlus took Wei Shi to join the fight. The Harpymimus were gorgeous, their colors bright like court gowns, but their two meter long claws could cut through branches, and Velociraptors––this type of predator that was occasionally mistaken as raptors, were the swift predators of the Cretaceous period, chasing after their prey like a group of shadows.


Wu Jin finally glanced up at the Quetzalcoatlus hovering in the air and nodded.


The situation in the gra.s.slands was split into regions, and the contestants were like powerful princes leading their armies in to fight in the battle.


At the same time, the players were the G.o.ds of life and death––they determined the genes of their subjects and controlled the power of evolution like a pantheon of G.o.ds.


The team of four had over 90% of the herbivores in the gra.s.sland, and none of them were predators, but n.o.body came to find trouble with them. Wu Jin soon found out where the problem lay.


“We haven’t reached the final battle, and the primary strategy for each team is to save on combat power.” Wu Jin explained, “The Tyrannosaurus Rex provoked the Sarcosuchus––Captain Zoe has to fight back for the sake of the swamp crocodiles. Dolma also won’t let their Tyrannosaurus Rexes suffer a loss.”


Lin Ke was confused, “But our Diplodocuses and Brachiosauruses have been eaten…”


Wu Jin spread his hands, “Is there anything we can do? The herbivores can’t win against them.”


Lin Ke thought for a moment. “There isn’t.”


Wu Jin blinked, “Exactly. We can only watch them eat because we don’t have any dinosaur fighting power at all.” Wu Jin swept his eyes over their equipment, and his gaze brightened slightly, “Our fighting power is in the players themselves.”


“The size of the herbivore population is larger than that of the carnivores. We gave up the predatory evolutionary route in order to obtain more Evolution Points from population size than the other teams.”


Ming Yao looked cheered, “Does that mean that n.o.body can beat us? Should we just wait here for someone to offer themselves up?”


Wu Jin shook his head and pointed off into the distance, “Look at Wei Yan.”


Wei Yan hadn’t raised any dinosaurs, but he was far ahead of the rest when it came to the number of kills. He only had one strategy––starting from the weakest team, he would rob and annex them one by one, turning himself from a blank white board into a giant that was feared by all parties.


Ming Yao’s mouth dropped open wide, and he thought in a trance that if Wei Yan was the main character in a leveling up type novel, he would be able to take advantage of the fortune from heaven and earth to destroy them all sooner or later.


“The materials can be merged together.” Wu Jin spoke seriously, “Our equipment is superior, but only from the perspective at the start of the fight. Once other teams complete their initial capital acc.u.mulationk2013;k2013;”


The team was stunned.


Lin Ke hurriedly took out 20 Evolution Points and traded it in for an extreme propulsion tranquilizer gun. He was eager to give it a try, “Who are we going to rob now? Brother Wu, Brother Ming, speak, big bosses!”


Ming Yao looked nervously at his captain in the distance. It seemed as though he was still hesitating.


Wu Jin quickly proposed, “Let’s first attack the easy targets.”


“The Velociraptor’s close relative, but slightly smaller in size. Their teeth have shifted to their lower jaw, and their forelimbs and claws are covered with feathers––the Harpymimus that have bird-like bodies.”


Ming Yao figured it out, “The group that Brother Thin raised up? They seem to be a little weaker than Velociraptors, but that shouldn’t be the case. They’re both evolved from Daemonosaurus-Coelophysis. If Brother Thin keeps evolving in the direction of speed, even if their dinosaurs aren’t as epic as my Captain’s Velociraptors, they should still be a rare-level raptor. How could they be Harpymimus…”


Wu Jin thought about it and reluctantly spoke up, “He might have added Evolution Points to the feather colors.”


Ming Yao: “What?!”


Wu Jin: “Most Harpymimus are black and yellow and normally aren’t as… colorful as the one he’s riding on.”


“……” Ming Yao was left in a trance. He coughed lightly, “Let’s go and catch harpies!”


At the edge of the gra.s.sland, two Harpymimus were shot down and sent into life-saving capsules––it was obviously more expensive to cultivate rainbow colored dinosaurs than ordinary ones, and the two dinosaurs would be recycled by their hosts.


At the same time, a poor player with minimal equipment was also eliminated.


Thin Fire went through the contestant’s limited legacy and looked proudly at Caesar––who’d been left behind by his teammate who’d been pecked into the life-saving capsule by the Harpymimus.


“It’s been four months.” He couldn’t restrain the pleasure in his eyes. In order to suit this cla.s.sic face-slapping scene, he’d purposely changed his eyeliner during his pursuit, deepening the lines on his lower eyelid, and curving the line on his upper eyelid so that he would appear more haughty as he looked down on his opponent.


Caesar struggled to kick away a Harpymimus, “F*ck me, you d.a.m.ned coquettish man––”


Thin Fire waved his hand and interrupted him, and two more Harpyminus dashed in. At this time, the Silver Thread Roll trainee was very satisfied. It was almost like he and Caesar were palace maidens who’d been chosen to enter the Crosson audition at the same time, fighting against each other openly and secretly for four months. The story ended with his establishment as a lady of rank while Caesar was beaten to death.


Spring Fragrance, Autumn Chrysanthemum, attack.” Another two Harpyminus joined the battle.


Thin Fire looked at Caesar’s slightly bulging abdomen. Oh, so what if he was pregnant with the program producer’s dinosaur baby? After the elimination match ended––there would only be 42 contestants left alive––and if he wasn’t able to enter the top 10 for his debut, would he even have a chance to turn the tables?


Caesar leapt up and climbed up a tree, and the Harpyminus began to peck at the trunk without another word. The tree that Caesar was on began to teeter and shake as he raged back, “…d.a.m.n… coquettish… ah, holy c.r.a.p, this tree…”


Thin Fire looked at him enigmatically and was finally satisfied. He returned to reality after his roleplay and held up his selfie stick as he urged the Harpymimus he rode on to make a 360 degree circle around the tree to ensure that his audience could see his opponent’s awkward position––especially the small belly that was pasted to the tree.


“Alright. Seeing as how we’ve formed a CP before,” He smiled slyly and said, “I’ll end things properly.”


Caesar, shaking in the tree, was about to rage back, when his eyes suddenly fixed onto the distance. He laughed loudly, “You talk too much!”


Thin Fire raised his brows.


Caesar looked behind Thin Fire and waggled his brows, trying to send a signal.


Thin Fire didn’t say anything else as he shot the tranquilizer gun right at Caesar’s b.u.t.t. From a close distance of 5 meters, there was no difference between Caesar and a static target.


“The anesthetic will take effect in 9 minutes. Let’s have a proper chat––” There were two swishing sounds from behind him. Thin Fire suddenly turned around, reaching towards his thigh with a curse as he pulled out an anesthetic dart.


Ming Yao greeted him from behind the trees off in the distance.


At Thin Fire’s command, countless rainbow-colored Harpymimus sprang out of the jungle towards Ming Yao, like gorgeous pheasants with their wings spread––the type that was three meters long.


Wu Jin hollered, “Run!”


Ming Yao dodged to the side to avoid the Harpymimus’s claws, and made a sharp roll to escape. Wu Jin was crouched between the back plates of a Stegosaurus, and he reached out as quick as lightning.


Ming Yao leapt up, and the Stegosaurus slammed the hammer in its tail into the Harpymimus that had chased the fastest and was closest to them. Wu Jin seemed to have calculated this for a long time, as he used the power of this deflection to perform a vertical leap––landing onto the tail of a Brachiosaurus.


Ming Yao was one step behind and ended up hanging in the air, less than two meters from the ground, “Ahhhhh I’m gonna die gonna die gonna die!”


The Brachiosaurus lifted its neck high, creating a gradual angle from 60 degrees to 30 degrees. Ming Yao kept sliding down and was stuck at the sin30 height of the tail length. He put a lot of effort into shrinking up his body, and a group of red, orange, green, blue, and purple Harpymimus all opened up their beaks beneath him––


Lin Ke finally arrived, driving the breathless Apatosaurus with him.


Wu Jin called out heatedly, “Switch to the Apatosaurus! The slope of the Apatosaurus is only 10 degrees, then switch to the Diplodocus that’s parallel to the ground…”


Ming Yao jumped and switched dinosaurs, with Lin Ke helping him up. He crawled for nearly five meters before finally looking down at the rainbow team of dinosaurs at his feet in relief.


Nine minutes later, the number of people still alive jumped again.


Currently, 35 people were still alive.


Ming Yao flopped down on the Diplodocus’ back as he waited for his teammates to go through Thin Fire’s equipment. He recounted exaggeratedly to Lin Ke, “Describing it takes more time than when it actually happened. Seven time seven, forty nine pheasants came after this sniper. Fortunately, my reaction time was fast, and there’s also the training the captain gives me normally––hey, have you seen our captain’s solo match? Ah? You’ve never seen it before? Come, come, come, let me tell you about it…”


Ming Yao suddenly froze and shouted, “Little Witch, you-you-you behind you––”


Wu Jin suddenly turned his head back.


The light in the forest was dim. Standing at over five meters above him was a huge head that carried a faint smell. It leaned silently towards Wu Jin, its eyes round and protruding. The skin showed a dark scale-like pattern from the dense defensive b.u.mps on it.


Beneath its powerful neck were two short, stubby hands that were obviously out of proportion to the rest of its body.


The Tyrannosaurus Rex.


Its huge, b.l.o.o.d.y mouth opened wide.



Juurensha: Nooooo, Little Witch, call in your betrothal gift!
