Chapter 292 Primitive Beast World Cubs 66
Besides the orcs, many more animals appeared on the road—those that ran on the ground, swam in the water, and flew in the sky. This is springtime.
After the recent rain, the weather was sunny for a while, and now the ground is completely dry, as if the world has been washed clean.
I found a clean grassy area. The grass here was not like what I had imagined. It was all the same height, lush and green, and neatly trimmed. It was very comfortable.
In spring, this primitive grassland becomes overgrown with weeds, and since there are not many people walking around regularly, there are almost no paths; it's all grass, growing haphazardly and in all directions.
What a wild and unchecked growth!
There were stones on the grass. I touched them and made sure they were completely dry before sitting down. Then I took out a bamboo mat and spread it on the grass.
Then they took things out of the basket: dried meat, jam, steamed buns made from millet paste, roasted potatoes, and steamed eggs.
These things are still exactly as they were when they were put in—fresh and warm, ready to eat right out of the box.
The little snake cub is currently in the growth stage, and Shen Ci carries food with him. The little snake cub is a child who loves to eat, and he is picky about food. He will never eat anything that doesn't taste good.
She brought all her favorite foods, and the little snake cub ate them without hesitation. She accepted these foods that she had been used to eating since birth.
Shen Ci tried it with raw meat, but Qing Ming doesn't eat raw meat.
The sun was warm and comforting, making people feel cozy. The purple mark on her forehead became more noticeable, whether due to age or the absorption of the sun and moon's essence, it was hard to tell.
"Ding-dong! Mission triggered!"
Guide the little snake cubs to repel the intruders, sense the power of the royal blood, and trigger the majesty of the bloodline.
Reward: Rescue points +25%.
Awaken your bloodline and gain access to the memories and heritage of the serpent race.
The territory has expanded to include a swamp, and a map showing the mineral distribution within the territory has been obtained.
Intruder? Shen Ci's first reaction was to be alert. The system never issues missions without a reason. Since this mission has been issued, it means that danger is imminent.
This time, the rescue points are plentiful, and the rewards are generous. Although the original map already had species markers, you had to unlock the corresponding species yourself to see the specific ones.
But this reward is different; it's a map showing the distribution of minerals within the territory, which means it's a detailed version. I just don't know if the map will expand as my spiritual power increases.
Anyway, they're all good stuff, and the key to this mission is to guide the enemy to repel them.
Shen Ci glanced at the little snake cub, who was still lying there peacefully, not showing any signs of danger. Logically speaking, a beastman with such pure blood should be able to quickly sense danger.
Even most ordinary animals have an extraordinary ability to sense danger, and they are the ones who sense disasters before they occur.
Is it dangerous?
She quickly looked around, and everything was still peaceful. In the distance, animals were grazing and drinking, butterflies were flying, and birds occasionally flitted through the woods.
It seems that all is well.
Suddenly, a series of sharp bird calls came from the sky, which made people feel panicked for no reason.
Looking up, I saw a large black bird swooping down from the sky. Its wings were spread wide, and it looked enormous.
It looked a bit like an eagle and a bit like a vulture. A strange-looking big bird swooped down from the sky, aiming at the little snake lying leisurely on the ground.
"Qingming, danger!"
Shen Ci exclaimed, "Is this child too slow? The bird is about to swoop down, why isn't she reacting?"
The system prompted Shen Ci to scoop the child up.
"Do you see that bird in the sky? It's coming at you. Can you beat it?"
If we really can't beat them, let's run. Our lives are more important.
Shen Ci looked at the size difference between the two. To this big bird, Qingming was just a small, thin spicy strip.
"By the way, you can sense the purple scale on your head. Is there any power inside?"
"Your mother will run with you first; if you sense anything, just let me know."
Shen Ci instructed, "We really have to run. This big bird is about to fly right in front of us. As a mother, I can't just watch my child get hurt."
This task can be skipped or missed, and other tasks will be released later, but if something happens to the child, then it will be a loss that outweighs the gains.
The world is vast, but my baby is the most important!
"Mother, put me down."
Qingming suddenly opened her eyes. Her eyes were not the round type, but rather long and narrow with upturned corners. Despite her young age, she looked very dignified.
As we grow up, our appearance gradually changes.
As Shen Ci held the child, she suddenly felt her arms go empty. All that remained in her arms was a bundle of clothes, and a dark green snake had fallen from her hands, swimming away in the opposite direction.
There was no fear of danger in her eyes, only a chilling coldness; she not only did not run away, but also faced the challenge head-on.
However, it turned back into its original form, and after transforming into its original form, the snake looked even more vulnerable.
With such a sharp beak, wouldn't it just snatch it up in one bite?
The snake and the bird quickly became entangled in a fight. The snake was very fast, and the grass on the ground concealed its color.
Shen Ci was getting anxious. Suddenly, he remembered that the system only said to guide the little snake cub to defeat it, but didn't say that he couldn't take action himself. So he picked up a stone from the ground and threw it at the big bird.
If the system doesn't stop something, then it's permissible. The giant bird, while dodging attacks from humans, also had to avoid snakes on the ground, becoming increasingly ferocious.
Shen Ci had never been a snake before and didn't know how to fight it, so he could only do his best to help. Humans are not God, much less omnipotent; on the contrary, their shortcomings are what make them more human.
After a brief struggle, a flash of purple light appeared, and Qingming transformed into his original form, making the purple scales on his head even more conspicuous and dazzling.
The deep purple on the dark green body is not a highly saturated purple, but rather a deep, ethereal light that reflects sunlight.
Qingming bit down hard on the bird's neck, its claws scratching and struggling.
"Ding-dong! Mission complete!"
Salvage value +25%.
Current rescue rate: 60%.
You have inherited memories and obtained a map of your territory's mineral resources, which has been added to the world map.
Since the system had started the settlement, it meant the task was complete. Shen Ci went up and hit the big bird on the head with a stick, stopping its claws from tearing at the little snake's skin.
Children's skin is so delicate, it can't withstand such tearing, scratching and biting. It breaks my heart.
