Chapter 75: Extinct Animals
Wang Yang's entire center of gravity dropped and he was already unstable. He looked at the beast that looked like a leopard but not a leopard and opened its ferocious mouth. He could imagine that when he got to the ground, he would be bitten to death by a few bites.
In this crisis, he decisively let go of the hand holding the wooden spear, hooked his arm on the branch, turned around with the force of the circle, and curled up on the branch.
While doing this action, he never let go of the wooden spear. He was not sure whether the guy would get into the tree and did not dare to throw away his only long weapon.
The guy didn't hold on to the wooden spear tightly. It probably thought that the chance of getting an orangutan or monkey down from the tree was very small, so he simply put down his paw, and as soon as it touched the ground, it bounced up again.
Wang Yang immediately noticed that there was no strength on the wooden spear, and immediately concluded that the guy had loosened his claws, so he quickly stood on the branch again and stabbed the guy again.
This time, he didn't let himself lose his center of gravity at any time, and grabbed the crack in the branch with one hand.
The guy repeated his old trick, swatting away the wooden spear with one claw, and clasping his two claws firmly on the branch under Wang Yang, roaring in displeasure on his ferocious face.
"Woohoo~"
Its voice is deep and weird, lower than the voice of a lion. It sounds like a broken cello and is hard to hear.
Wang Yang had no time to enjoy the music. In his eyes, such cats were simply unbelievable. They were so big and could still maintain such powerful explosive power and jump two meters from the ground. It was simply unimaginable.
Of course, this was in an era when animals were relatively large. The two meters in my own concept was not the two meters in their eyes.
Moreover, this guy has well-proportioned proportions among the big cats. Compared with the hill-like Smilodon, it looks more like a marathon runner, with almost no fat on its body and a slender body.
Jumping into the air, he was full of explosive power.
Now that this guy was disturbed by me, he could only grab the branch and struggle to climb up. Naturally, he couldn't let it succeed, so he stabbed it in the head.
The guy decisively let go of his claws, dropped to the ground, stopped jumping, and climbed up the tree in a few steps.
It climbed the tree as fast as a leopard, like lightning, without stopping, moving smoothly, and climbed three meters in the blink of an eye.
Wang Yang thought to himself that it would be okay if it climbed up the tree, so he ran to the trunk of the tree and plunged down.
The guy shrank back, moved down a few inches, and then charged upwards. Wang Yang didn't hesitate, guarding the trunk and kept poking at it.
It climbed up a few more steps, and this time before Wang Yang could poke the spear down, it jumped decisively and grabbed Wang Yang.
Wang Yang knew that its bounce was astonishing, so he had been on guard for a long time. When he saw it jump, he decisively stabbed his soft lower abdomen.
There was no suspense. The guy had quick eyes and quick hands. He slapped the tree trunk and turned over to the ground.
Wang Yang was really speechless. How could animals these days know this trick? Have they ever practiced it?
However, even though the opponent was difficult to deal with, Wang Yang still calmed down and found a name that fit its figure in his mind - Terror Cat.
The dire cat has become extinct in modern times. It became extinct very early, and existed between about 5 million and 1.4 million years ago. It is different from the time when animals such as saber-toothed tigers and other animals became extinct.
Five thousand years ago.
The cause of extinction cannot be investigated, but the reason for the extinction of saber-toothed tigers is mostly caused by climate and environmental changes.
Wang Yang thought very early on that he would face primitive animals that could only be restored through =, so when he was just born a few years ago, he desperately tried to recall the information about these animals.
The reason why Terror Cat has the word "cat" in its name is naturally because its habits are similar to those of a cat. It can climb trees and go down rivers, and likes to make sneak attacks at night. It is almost like a magnified cat.
But even such a large beast, omnipotent in heaven and earth, has become extinct.
It is hard to imagine that even though it has abilities similar to those of a leopard, habits and vigilance like a cat, and canine teeth that are tougher than those of a saber-toothed tiger, it would still become extinct.
Its only weakness may be that it is relatively fast.
There is a saying circulating in the martial arts world that all laws in the world are unbreakable except speed. This saying still applies in the forest.
Even if you have unparalleled magical powers and wonderful magic, it's of no use if you can't hit me.
In other words, fear cats are forced to attack others every day and in the middle of the night.
It is not as fast as a leopard in climbing trees, not as agile as a cat in descending into rivers, not as strong as a saber-toothed tiger, and not as explosive as a tiger or a lion. To put it mildly, it understands a little bit about everything.
To put it harshly, it doesn’t look like anything.
It evolves to be omnipotent, but it doesn't know that there are specializations in the art. It has to be said to be a tragedy.
Coupled with its size, it can survive only so-so during the interglacial period, but it will be completely destroyed once the glacial period arrives.
Of course, this is not the time for academic discussions on animals. For ape-man, these four unusual images are natural enemies. Some experts have speculated that the natural enemy of the australopithecines at that time was the cat.
Wang Yang encountered his natural enemy, took a few deep breaths, and concluded from the information that flashed through his mind that this guy was here to eat him.
The dead kid was probably carried into the tree by it.
Unexpectedly, I bumped into the muzzle of a gun.
If it's a leopard, it's okay to say that leopards are not abnormal in shape. They will think more about it when they see people. They will leave the kid down and let it eat well, and maybe it will leave on its own.
But this guy in front of me is definitely planning to eat him. There is no way to avoid it, so he can only think of more ways.
The feared cat realized that it was more difficult to deal with than the monkeys and orangutans and could not climb the tree, so it changed its approach and climbed to another tree, intending to jump over.
This trick was used by Gou Xiong before. Wang Yang also made a special tactic at that time and almost won it alone.
He wanted to use the original method, which was to cut a hole in the branch and put the bone spur inside. When it jumped over, it was naturally stabbed to the core.
But the reality is that fear cats do not need to climb to a very high place to jump. The same height can easily cover a distance of several meters.
Wang Yang didn't have enough time to dig a hole, so he made up his mind and approached the branch where the scary cat was.
Since there is no way to avoid it, we can only fight.
He planned to use the length of the wooden spear to hit the Terrorcat like this while it was jumping in the air. At that time, there would be nothing around it to shoot at, and it would be unable to change its center of gravity. All he had to do was seize the opportunity and avoid being clawed by it.
Just slap the wooden spear away.
Fearing that the cat had climbed up the tree and approached Wang Yang, its weight was too great and the branches would be bent by it, making it unable to reach the end. It stopped four meters away, flexed its body, and suddenly jumped over.
Along with its roar, it flew in the air.
Wang Yang's eyes flashed, and he raised his wooden spear, stabbing at the thigh where its claws could not reach.
"Poof" the wooden spear pierced its thigh easily, and blood spurted out. Wang Yang increased his strength and pressed down. When it was about to jump to the branch here, he pressed it down with a "thud" sound.
Fell to the ground from a height of several meters.
It climbed up and took two steps, but its thighs couldn't use any strength at all. It climbed the tree, then slid under the tree and looked at Wang Yang unwillingly.
It tried many more times before finally leaving angrily.
Seeing it go away, Wang Yang quickly took the kid down the tree. After thinking about it, he didn't take the kid away. At least he was invading the other's territory. He just wanted to cut some plants and go home, and didn't want a bigger outbreak.
contradiction.
Moreover, he has never gone down the mountain to harm the ape-man in many years, so there is no need for him to do anything.
You can let it guard the little goat if you leave it behind, so you don't have time to chase after you. Anyway, you have to carry a large bundle of plants back, and you can't take them with you.
Thinking of this, he decisively took away the plants and quickly returned to the cave.
(For these ancient animals, a large number of them are collected from Chinese paleontology and a series of professional materials. Interested students can take a look for themselves.)
(At the same time, let me talk about the problem of updating. I have been very ineffective recently. I blame me and I feel ashamed. I will start working harder tomorrow. Please add it to your favorites and vote for recommendations.)
