Learning Snow Leopard
As it concerns improving his own combat capability, Xiao Qingcen studies very seriously.
For the Qianmi tribe, the king may not have much attack ability, but there is only one ability that must be mastered, and that is running away.
How to determine your next escape route in the shortest possible time and how to escape in the fastest way possible are all things that need to be studied seriously.
In the jungle, there are often two identities: hunter and prey. If you are weak, you may become the prey in the eyes of others. The first step Xiao Qingcen needs to learn is to see from the perspective of a hunter, to observe the prey and see what he needs to do to catch his desired prey.
"Let's simulate it in reality first." Shang Yiqi said, taking out the first teaching aid of their class, which was still a ball of wool.
After turning on the machine, the speed was adjusted to twice the original speed and the size was also slightly enlarged.
Xiao Qingcen stared at the ball of yarn, his head shifting slightly as it rolled. Is it now?
He lunged forward, his claws sinking into the cottony earth.
The ball of yarn continued to roll in the wind.
Shang Yiqi reminded from the side: "Cen Cen, pay attention to his movement trajectory and guess where he will land next."
This is not an easy thing to do.
Xiao Qingcen nodded, his eyes almost dizzy from staring, when he suddenly noticed that the ball of yarn turned into the corner of the wall by itself under the high-speed rotation. He raised his tail and stared at the ball of yarn with his blue-gray eyes.
One second, two seconds, three seconds. With the instinct of a snow leopard, Xiao Qingcen jumped again, this time landing perfectly, trapping the ball of yarn in the corner.
Caught it!
The snow leopard happily picked up the ball of yarn.
"Oh, oh, oh!" He happily wagged his tail at Shang Yiqi to show off that he had caught the ball of yarn.
The latter nodded and smiled. Shang Yiqi touched Xiao Qingcen's head and stuffed a small gift into Xiao Qingcen's arms. It was a small hat that Shang Yiqi made by himself when he was bored and sitting outside the nutrition cabin waiting for Wang Su to wake up. The materials used were the materials from the handicraft class in the protection base.
"Cen Cen is awesome!"
When it comes to emotional value, Shang Yiqi never seems to be lacking in the slightest.
Catching the yarn ball is only the first step. The second step is to enter various simulated environments and catch your target as a hunter. Of course, the yarn ball will also become virtual.
Shang Yiqi activated the virtual instrument, and the surrounding scene instantly changed. The previously empty room suddenly transformed into a tropical rainforest. Xiao Qingcen cautiously reached out and touched the trees, which were surprisingly no different from those in real life.
The soil beneath his feet was moist, carrying the fragrance of grass and trees. He sniffed it hard, and it was a bit like the fragrance after the rain. It was slightly different from what he had smelled when he looked out from the hospital ward in the past, and there was less smell of disinfectant.
The surrounding trees rustled in the wind, which made Snow Leopard's heart jump subconsciously. He raised his head and looked in the direction of Shang Yiqi.
At this moment, the Archon has become the prototype of the big black wolf.
"This map simulates a special climate zone on the ancient blue planet. A variety of animals live in the tropical rainforest. They are very tenacious and have excellent concealment capabilities."
During the introduction, a ball of yarn generated by the system also appeared in front of them. Xiao Qingcen was about to chase it when he was picked up by Shang Yiqi.
"The ground in this area of the map is not suitable for cubs to run on. Let's move to flat ground first."
In just a few minutes, the ball of yarn had already run to a place further outside the rainforest.
Xiao Qingcen guessed the simulated time was afternoon from the light filtering through the leaves. Several blue screens floated around him. "Hmm, ground corrosion debuff, sunburn debuff..." No wonder Shang Yiqi had to move to a new location.
Occasionally, there would be small animals startled by them, such as rabbits and birds, which would come out frightened by the unusual movement in the rainforest. Then they would see the rare sight of a big black wolf running and jumping in the rainforest with a snow leopard in its arms, which is a rare sight in a lifetime.
Xiao Qingcen adapted well to this. After all, he had been held in Shang Yiqi's arms, on his shoulders and head for more than half a month. He even consciously found a comfortable position and leaned on the fur on Shang Yiqi's chest.
The surrounding trees shook slightly, and Shang Yiqi gently told Xiao Qingcen how to identify the flow of air and wind direction around him.
The ground corrosion debuff on the blue screen has disappeared.
Their keen hearing allowed them to simultaneously detect the sound of running water not far away. The ball of yarn finally slowed down and emerged from the nearby bushes.
There was a river behind the bushes. Xiao Qingcen shook his tail slightly and tried hard to imitate Shang Yiqi to judge what kind of information was coming from the wind around him.
There is a fishy smell near the river, and it is obviously aggressive. Is it a carnivorous animal?
There were also some running sounds and the sound of drinking water regularly.
Are carnivores and herbivores drinking water together at the river?
The ball of yarn rolled forward again, quickly twisting under the tiger, and then dove into the water, rising and falling, repeatedly turning according to the speed simulated by the system.
The snow leopard curiously poked its head out. It was fun!
A dozen or so sika deer gathered on the opposite side of the river bank, nibbling grass and drinking water, while an alert one of them was on patrol.
The big tiger on the other side of the river was staring at them eagerly, repeatedly looking up at the sika deer's location, looking like it was longing for them and drooling over them.
The other animals looked completely different from what Xiao Qingcen had seen in the book. After all, they were animals simulated by the interstellar optical computer, and there were all kinds of races. There was even a jellyfish huddled under the water, which was slowly floating up. It noticed the ball of yarn that appeared in the water and immediately stretched out its tentacles out of curiosity.
Taking this opportunity, Shang Yiqi slowly introduced to Xiao Qingcen the differences between different races and different mimicry.
For example, Shang Yiqi, who is a member of the Qianmi tribe and can transform into a large black wolf, can run much faster than members of the tribe who transform into other animals. Members of the tribe who transform into large white rabbits have better jumping abilities. Those who transform into goldfish can hold their breath underwater for long periods of time, even breathing through their gills...
This is also the characteristic that is most similar to the spiritual race and is the easiest for other races to distinguish. After all, they can all turn into animals. Wan Ling turns into a three-tailed cat, which also determines his natural agility.
Suddenly, three giant headless birds flew up in the air. Shang Yiqi introduced them, "These are the Phoenix Clan. They will face countless natural and man-made disasters in their lives. If they survive to the end, they will be reborn from the ashes."
"Their weakness isn't their head, but their tail feathers. Losing their head won't kill the phoenix, only if their tail feathers are completely broken off."
Xiao Qingcen noted this important point of knowledge. "Tail feathers are very important to the Phoenix," Shang Yiqi explained. "Just like our tails."
An idea that he had not yet grasped suddenly flashed through his mind, but at this moment, the tiger whose whiskers had just been touched seemed to finally decide to take action.
As the undoubted predator in this tropical rainforest, it stood up lazily and rushed into the herd of sika deer with a dangerous leap.
The sika deer were instantly in an uproar!
Almost immediately, all the animals around scattered and ran in completely different directions in fear.
But what the animals didn't expect was that the big cat was actually making a feint to the east and attacking in the west. On the surface, it was going to attack the sika deer, but in fact, the moment it landed, it jumped high again and plunged into the water.
The action of the yarn ball had obviously caught the tiger's attention. It was very curious about the little thing, which was an irresistible instinct of cats.
This means that if Xiao Qingcen wants to successfully catch the ball of yarn, he must complete this set of actions under the tiger's nose.
What's the difference between this and asking a snow leopard to fight a tiger alone?!
There was a hint of fear in the little snow leopard's eyes, and then he suddenly felt something was wrong.
I am a snow leopard, and the only difference between me and this tiger seems to be my size... According to my observation just now, this big tiger is not even as fast as me.
If I try harder, maybe I can actually grab the ball of yarn? He turned around and glanced at Shang Yiqi, who gave him an encouraging look.
Anyway, this is in a virtual space, so even if you get injured, it won’t have any impact on your real life.
The little snow leopard observed again and again not far from the shore, confirmed its position, and then dived into the water.
The sun-burning DEBUFF on the blue screen disappeared. Xiao Qingcen took a look and saw that there was now a three-minute countdown, which meant that with his current body, he could only breathe freely in the water for three minutes at most.
Sure enough, it's not human anymore. He belatedly came up with this thought, his eyes fixed on the ball of yarn not far away, his paws moved slightly, and he swam forward in an instant.
The ball of yarn swam in the opposite direction of the big tiger, and the position where Xiao Qingcen jumped was exactly in a straight line with the two. After he got into the water, he did not act rashly, but held his breath and concentrated.
Before going into the water, he noticed that there was a gorgeous jellyfish in the water. Its tentacles were about to touch the ball of yarn, but several of them were interrupted by the arrival of the big tiger. Therefore, the jellyfish's hatred must be directed at the big tiger now.
The tiger paid no attention to the small object floating in the water and continued to chase. Given its size, it was only a matter of time before it caught the ball of yarn. But just at that moment, as it swung its paw forward, it suddenly felt numb all over. A strange numbness instantly spread throughout its body.
Xiao Qingcen took advantage of this opportunity and instantly grabbed the ball of yarn that had run in front of him in a panic.
Finish!
The rating popped up on the blue screen:
【Strategic Planning and Deployment 85/100】
【Running Speed Endurance 65/100】
【Attack and Defense Ability 25/100】
This is the preliminary assessment of Xiao Qingcen's combat capability by the optical computer's artificial intelligence system.
"Bobo!" The little snow leopard happily climbed onto Shang Yiqi's back. He pointed to the part about his strategic planning and deployment capabilities and raised his head proudly, "Look, I'm so awesome!"
Shang Yiqi's back suddenly stiffened for a moment, and the speed of his tail swinging suddenly became much faster.
"Yeah, Cen Cen is great."
The sound of the get out of class ending rang out unexpectedly. Xiao Qingcen watched the simulated scenery around him quickly fade away, and the soil under his feet also completely disappeared.
The little snow leopard smacked his lips in regret. Was this class actually over? What was the next class? He opened his computer and saw the text label: "Cub and Keeper Bonding Class."
