Deep Space Evolution: Clans

Chapter 9 Groups
The being wearing green scales turned around and attacked Yuan as soon as he felt his body being eaten.

This is a crustacean whose ferocious appearance resembles an enlarged version of a mantis shrimp.

But in front of him are not a pair of strong claws, but strong and powerful arms and legs.

In the middle of the arms and legs is a sharp mouthpart with powerful and intimidating ferocious teeth.

Those blood relatives who were dragged away by him were dragged into his mouthparts by these powerful arms and legs, and then were devoured.

Shrimp and squid, this is the name Yuan thought of.

The body of the shrimp and squid is very long, at least as long as four yuan, which is the size of six blood relatives.

A small reptile fish really has no danger in his eyes.

The clawed arms and legs fell on Yuan's body, trying to pull Yuan into his mouth and eat him.

But Yuan's power is somewhat beyond his imagination.

Before being dragged into the mouthparts, Yuan pulled the arm and foot and bit down hard.

At the same time, the blood relatives of the reptile fish have fallen from the sea one after another.

They looked at the leader who was fighting the attacker and stepped forward to bite him without hesitation.

The pain caused by falling with its mouth wide open made the shrimp and squid even more irritable.

He knew clearly that once these reptile fish pushed him down, he would definitely be eaten!
But although his strength alone is tyrannical, he is still unable to cope with so many blood relatives.

Sand and gravel rolled and seaweed rippled.

A large number of blood relatives rushed forward to bite the body of the shrimp and squid.

Although not all blood relatives can cause damage to the shrimp and squid's carapace, that is not their mission.

pressing.

Soon, a huge shrimp and squid was pinned to the seabed by this group of seemingly skinny reptiles.

There is a reptile fish everywhere on his body.

The blood relatives of the reptiles who had not taken up a position were surrounding them and watching the surrounding situation.

Densely packed reptile fish floated in this seagrass area, and this omnivorous group suddenly became the largest group in this area.

Yuan looked at Xia Squid who was pushed down on the gravel.

He looked at his body surface again, and saw that some areas originally covered with scales were dripping with blood from the arms and legs of the shrimp squid, and even some scales were torn off by the shrimp squid.

Yuan had to admit that it was a foolish act for him to rush towards an unknown enemy like this.

If his blood relatives were not close enough to him, even if he won this battle, he would have to pay a greater price.

At least the kind that involves losing a limb.

Yuan also realized that he was not strong enough now.

Facing a life like a shrimp and squid, he would never be able to go forward alone.

"Be careful, otherwise you will die. You have to act with your blood relatives and don't mess around."

Although this is what he thinks in his mind, the current situation does not require Yuan to be so nervous.

At least for now, they have won.

The blood relatives biting the shrimp squid's head and arms and legs looked at Yuan. Under the gaze of these blood relatives, Yuan climbed onto the shrimp squid's head and bit his neck directly!

The sound of the carapace breaking was quite clear.

The shrimp and squid never imagined that this species that they had preyed on many times would one day become the creature that killed them.

Xia Squid's big eyes looked at Yuan, and his weak consciousness was transmitted to Yuan's brain.

"You have won. The group is better."

The huge life finally died in this place with dense seagrass.

And with the death of the shrimp squid, the emerald green body that Yuan Yi saw at the beginning gradually faded and turned into gray.

"Changing color."

This is a brand new concept of biodiversity.It turns out that the color of life is not fixed.

They will also change.

Yuan looked at his own scales, and it seemed that they were indeed different in color from the scales of his surrounding blood relatives.

However, this does not prevent the shrimp and squid from eating.

The reptile fish group showed uniform behavior at this moment.

While Yuan was eating, they all walked up and down from the shrimp and squid one after another, crawling aside and waiting for Yuan to finish eating.

Although Yuan's appetite is huge, he won't eat the whole shrimp and squid.

So in the end, Yuan only chewed off part of the shrimp squid's body.

Every spot had a bite.

Because Yuan discovered that when he was eating new creatures, the evolutionary catalog would begin to include these creatures.

Every time he started to devour these lives, eating different parts, the evolutionary catalog would be replenished with different areas of these lives.

For large creatures such as shrimps and squids that are more than 6 meters long, Yuan cannot eat them all at once. He can only choose to eat according to the guidance of the evolutionary catalog and the integrity of the shrimps and squids' bodies.

Pick and choose and eat a complete shrimp and squid in the evolution catalog.

The rest is left to his blood relatives.

Due to their previous behavior of eating seaweed, although every blood relative in the group wanted to eat more shrimp and squid bodies, they really couldn't eat any more.

So in the end, except for some older and weaker reptile fish, everyone basically got a piece of the pie.

As for whether to eat enough or not, that is not something Yuan needs to consider.

Isn’t there so much seaweed?
While his blood relatives were eating, Yuan Ze began to check the evolution catalog to see if the body of the shrimp and squid could provide any evolution for him.

First up are those arms and legs.

As someone who has had close contact with the arms and legs, I know very well how powerful these arms can be.

But Yuan found that his head didn't seem to be suitable for growing arms and legs.

Although the head of the shrimp squid is also hard, due to its huge body, it has enough area to grow arm legs.

Yuan's entire head is covered with hard bones, and due to his small body, although he can grow arms and legs, his head is definitely not suitable.

Yuan also doesn't think it's a good thing to have arms and legs on your mouth.

It's not suitable for swimming, and reptiles aren't the kind of species that uses their arms to hunt.

After thinking about it, Yuan temporarily gave up the idea of ​​transplanting the arm and foot.

At the same time, Yuan focused on the carapace of the shrimp and squid.

At least it focused on the structure of this carapace.

Yuan, who has eaten shrimp and squid, knows very well how hard the carapace is when chewed.So that the yuan is swallowed directly into the stomach at a suitable size.

Of course, the real reason is not because of this.

Mainly because in the evolutionary catalog, Yuan Mingming can know that the reason why the shrimp and squid can change color has a lot to do with his carapace.

Yuan thinks such a carapace is okay.

But as a result, Yuan's appearance will undergo a huge change.

Yuan still chose transplantation without hesitation.

For a moment, Yuan felt itching on his body.

However, this itching is not severe.

Yuan, who has experienced scale replacement once, knows that it takes time to replace the carapace, so there will be no changes in a short period of time.

But in the next period of time, Yuan needs to try to avoid fighting like today.

Because during the carapace replacement period, Yuan Yuan's original scales will become quite fragile and will not have the original level of protection at all.
