Chapter 159 Jurassic (13) Entering the Sea
The end of the continent is the ocean.
At first glance, the ancient ocean is not much different from the ocean in the modern world. Both are beautiful blue and boundless. When the sea breeze blows, the seawater tastes salty. The natural beaches along the coast are not very fine and soft, and they are beautiful orange-red due to the iron content. There are many strange-shaped stones and shells on them that have been rolled up by the waves.
What is different is the species living on the seashore.
In the Jurassic, the creatures living on the edge of the ocean were also mainly dinosaurs, including herbivorous dinosaurs and carnivorous dinosaurs. The herbivorous dinosaurs mainly ate special plants growing on sea rocks, while the carnivorous dinosaurs mostly had wings and mainly hunted some animals living in shallow sea areas.
There are also very few wingless omnivorous dinosaurs. Because some marine creatures have the habit of coming ashore from time to time, these animals often become hunting targets of omnivorous dinosaurs.
The second is the giant lizards, some of which have sharp teeth that are no less than sharks, and flexible and sensitive limbs that have not yet degenerated. Ye Mo also saw a group of prehistoric giant elephants.
Dinosaurs or other animals living in this area can basically drink the salty and bitter sea water to quench their thirst, or intercept certain information from it, because they have organs or cells in their bodies that are specifically used to remove excess salt from the body, like filters.
Ye Mo did not leave the mainland and go to the sea immediately, but lived by the sea for several days and did some experiments.
For example, the Tyrannosaurus Rex can eat most dinosaurs in the ocean, as well as very few plants, but cannot drink seawater to quench its thirst, as it lacks organs to process seawater. Therefore, it is necessary to prepare some freshwater, water-based dinosaurs, water-based plants, water-based spiritual stones and other resources.
As well as fire-based, wood-based, and lightning-based resources that are not available or relatively rare or rarely encountered in the ocean, they may have unexpected magical uses in the future.
The forest behind is her perfect hunting area, where she can basically find a lot of food, dinosaurs in groups, a lot of rock treasures, and some wild fruits.
Needless to say, in this process, the importance of Eagle Eyes is self-evident, greatly satisfying her inexplicable collection addiction.
In the process of collecting resources, Ye Mo and Eagle Eyes accidentally discovered an underground mine that looked like modern coal. This had nothing to do with her. What she really noticed was the signs of a dozen or so wood-type spiritual jades scattered among the coal mines. They were all legendary tree fossils.
The best-quality wood-type spiritual jades are no less than the system rewards given in the real aquatic copies.
An unexpected surprise.
The most surprising thing was that she discovered the on-site environment where these wood-type spiritual jades were formed.
In addition to collecting supplies, Ye Mo also witnessed many fierce sea, land and air battles, sea and land battles, sea and air battles, ocean civil wars, etc. at the seaside or in the shallow sea area, and participated in several of them.
The hunting data and skills learned on land are less than 5% applicable in the ocean, and the skills are less than 30% applicable. How to hunt has to be accumulated again step by step.
By the time Ye Mo was roughly sure that she would not die of hunger or thirst even if she stayed in the ocean for the rest of her time, she had grown to 14.7 meters. She fixed the Suihou Pearl on the inside of the storage belt, and then wrapped the golden storage belt around her neck before heading out to the sea.
As long as the artifact Suihou Pearl directly touches a certain part of the body of a creature, it will naturally form an invisible and intangible barrier, similar to a film, wrapping the host's entire body.
This film not only can ignore the deep sea pressure, but also the magic pearl will actively absorb the surrounding water vapor and turn it into oxygen that the host can absorb, so as not to suffocate to death.
It also has a high concealment shielding function. Even the eagle eye cannot break through this shielding. However, this shielding is limited to vision. Hearing, smell, and touch cannot be shielded.
This is already very powerful.
Ye Mo has thoroughly explored the performance of Sui Hou Zhu, and has experience in how to reduce water pressure and produce oxygen, and even prepared a design plan, but she can't achieve such a perfect combination, nor can she find the legendary material that can be used to make Sui Hou Zhu.
Even 1% of the combined functional imitations cannot be prevented at present.
But even with a treasure like Sui Hou Zhu, Ye Mo's progress in the sea water is not so easy. He can't really be like a sea creature. The inability to run on solid ground makes the Tyrannosaurus Rex very uncomfortable.
The longer you swim, the more obvious this feeling is.
Moreover, in the Jurassic World, the Tyrannosaurus Rex is a pure land creature. Ye Mo can intimidate other dinosaurs on land, but there are many difficulties in the ocean. The mental power cannot imitate the intimidation methods of some marine dinosaurs, so the effect of mental barriers is reduced.
No matter what marine dinosaur he transforms into, he cannot fool marine dinosaurs within 500 meters, especially carnivorous dinosaurs.
There is less and less sunlight in the ocean. Most marine creatures basically do not rely on vision, and there are various means of detecting the environment. The concealment performance of Suihouzhu is also full of limitations here.
It is a matter of time before he can attract hunters in the ocean, but this challenge comes too fast.
The third hour after entering the sea, Ye Mo was surrounded and attacked by a group of ice-type carnivorous ichthyosaurs with an average length of more than 10 meters. Although they are larger than most land-based carnivorous dinosaurs, they are still medium-sized social dinosaurs in the ocean.
Seawater is the natural battlefield for ice-type dinosaurs.
Ye Mo, whose combat power was greatly reduced in the seawater, was almost frozen by the group attack of this group of small and medium-sized marine dinosaurs, and might even be pierced by an ice sword. In the end, he still ate a lot of fire and wood resources in the space to survive.
The bright red blood has dyed the sea red.
Not daring to delay for a second, Ye Mo quickly put forty or fifty ichthyosaurs into the space, then took out the compass to correct his direction, and hurriedly left the scene.
Her body has a strong ability to recover, but even if it is strong, it still takes some time for the wounds to heal.
In this short period of time, Ye Mo encountered several waves of dinosaur attacks, and each time she was injured, the new injuries attracted attacks from other carnivorous marine dinosaurs or dinosaur groups. She
was really in danger all the time.
This was the longest and most tiring challenge that Ye Mo had experienced in so many years. She was either on the road to fighting or on the road to escape. Even replenishing food was during fighting or escaping. It was absolutely impossible for her to close her eyes and rest.
Because she was too unfamiliar with the ocean.
In this case, it was difficult for Ye Mo to survive, not to mention hurrying. He had no time to think, so he could only grit his teeth and find a place to rest and recuperate as soon as possible during the pursuit, otherwise he had to return.
This search took a long time.
Ye Mo had fought with pterosaurs in the sea area within 50 meters, and chased tens of thousands of ordinary ichthyosaurs living in groups in the near return area within 600 meters. Even herbivorous dinosaurs would drive away or even chase this strange animal that he had never seen before.
In the mid-sea area between 500 and 1000 meters, she fought with a group of Coolasaurus and Truenose Dragons. At 2000 meters, she unfortunately encountered a 800-ton Slipodon, and fought a life-and-death battle with it.
The size and weight of this Slipodon were several times larger than those of an ordinary adult Slipodon. Its most terrifying ability was its super-high-level water spells, which could easily steam other dinosaurs into dried meat in an instant.
If Ye Mo had not been protected by the Suihou Pearl, she would have been in trouble the moment she met the Slipodon. Even so, when she tore it with claws that were sharper than the Slipodon, she was also seriously injured.
She had to bite and swallow the heart and other organs of the linothorax immediately. Only after losing one-third of its blood and being almost steamed did its body begin to recover a little.
This spell is amazing!
Fortunately, in the deep sea area after 2,000 meters, even deep-sea dinosaurs cannot completely ignore the deep-sea pressure. The number of carnivorous dinosaurs and herbivorous dinosaurs is decreasing a little.
Ye Mo can finally take a breath, but this does not mean that the deep sea area is safe.
Because in the deep sea area, there are many marine overlords, and they are all difficult to deal with, just like the linothorax that Ye Mo just killed. The area where she is resting now is the territory of the linothorax. It is because of the occupation of the linothorax that it can be so "safe".
Even if the surrounding dinosaurs smelled blood, they would not dare to step into this place for the time being due to the remaining power of this gliosaur.
Ye Mo ate a whole gliosaur and other dragons in the gliosaur's territory until her body and spirit were almost recovered. Then she took out the compass to adjust the direction and continued to move forward.
She has finally found a survival rule that can be applied in the ocean. She is active in the deep sea space of more than 2,000 meters, enters the territory of the ocean overlord, fights with them, and occupies the land as the king.
With these two days of exciting and thrilling escape experiences, Ye Mo's survival skills and knowledge in the seabed have been improved. In addition, with Eagle Eyes selecting enemies for her, she basically did not encounter any major problems.
2000 meters, 3000 meters, 5000 meters... 8000 meters, and even tens of thousands of meters.
While moving forward, Ye Mo continued to challenge the depth limit in the ocean. In addition to the reason of constantly challenging himself, he gradually discovered that the treasures in the ocean are no less than those in the forest and the continent, mainly water and earth spiritual stone resources.
There are especially many in the deep sea below 8000 meters.
It is not the kind of water spiritual stone that is about to lose its spiritual energy that I encountered when I first arrived in the Jurassic World, but resources that are no less than the water spiritual jade and earth spiritual jade obtained from the real aquatic copy.
Wood, earth, water... Ye Mo's five-element spiritual jade list is now only missing gold and fire. Her physique is a balanced physique of the five elements. If she can collect all of them, the effect on cultivation is self-evident.
I didn't have such a plan before because it was difficult to get them, and this cultivation is not a matter of one or two pieces of spiritual jade. Now in the original Jurassic copy, I finally had ambition.
Before getting the earth-type spiritual jade mine in the deep sea, the most important problem in front of me is how to kill the two couple snake neck dragons in front of me that are more than 70 meters long.
