After traveling a hundred miles, the three of them had to slow down again, hide their bodies and sneak carefully, because at this time they had escaped from the military control area of the mutated yak tribe, and the mutant yak, mutated yak and other mutants gathered here There are more orcs, even more than normal.
Many of these mutated orcs who were expelled from the military-controlled areas gathered in this place, although the mutated orcs did not have the same situation as humans who were bound to a certain area because of their work. But the orcs have another desire that is not very strong among humans, and that is territorial awareness.
Even if it is a single mutant beast, it is still very resistant to foreigners of the same race or even alien races. There are no laws in the orcs, only the weak eat the strong. In order to ensure their normal survival, it is extremely necessary to maintain a territory, so they will not welcome uninvited guests. Not even the Beast King's orders will do.
Therefore, most of these expelled mutant beasts gathered in this fringe area, waiting for the ban to be lifted to return to their homes. The team of mutant beasts that the three people encountered before were going back to collect consumables, that is, to collect fodder. of.
However, the group of mutant beast civilians who dispersed in a hurry was obviously not as fast as Gong Yun and the three others. At this time, none of them have escaped, so the mutant beast people here don't know about it yet, and they may not care if they do.
For them, they are victims. It was the beast king who forcibly drove them out of their homes without giving them food. If mutant beasts and humans could communicate, it would be possible to bring in a few traitors.
But now, Gong Yun, Akaku and Zuo Zuotou are not interested in watching this grand scene of a gathering of beasts. It is not easy to quietly bypass such a dense gathering area of mutant beasts. Once discovered, , no matter what the reasons are, it will cause great panic, either besieging, attacking and killing, or fleeing in panic.
But no matter which outcome, their next actions will be harmful rather than helpful.
This was the first time for the three of them to see this kind of scene. A group of mutant beasts were huddled together at a distance from each other. This small group was a small family of mutant beasts, or a family of beasts, with all guardians among them. Small pile of food.
Because mutated cattle mainly eat grass, although the mutated cattle and yak tribe also eat meat, the appeal of meat to them is very low, just like carnivores will not eat grass unless they have to.
Therefore, there is basically no mutual hunting here. There is only a fight for herbivory. Of course, if you win the fight, you can take the other party's body back to replace some herbivorous food. It is not exclusive. Your life is the same, so you can naturally save money. If you want to save, you won’t waste what you can avoid wasting.
Sneaking around among these mutated beast refugees, beasts are extremely cool in human minds, because they don't need to work, let alone look at their boss's face. When you're hungry, go out and find something to eat. When you're full, any place is home.
But in fact, it is not what humans see. The competition among the beast clan is also fierce, because if you are not hard enough and strong enough, you will not be able to protect your domestic beasts, and other beasts will rob you of your life needs and your own. Domestic animals will also be bullied in various ways.
In each of these orc families, there is one or even multiple abnormally strong mutant beasts in each small group.
Special mutated cattle that walk upright are not uncommon here. Gong Yun has never encountered this kind of situation before. Before that, there were only a few animals that could walk upright and have two forearms free for work.
Although these mutated cattle that walk upright no longer rely on their forelimbs to support their bodies. However, their standing posture is still leaning forward, and the entire body relies on a hook posture to maintain balance. This posture is difficult to distinguish in satellites. Qin Yao can tell that it is due to the extremely high accuracy of her satellites. of.
During this process, Akakuzu and Zuo Saotou also realized a major problem. They noticed an incredible phenomenon, that is, the abnormality of the mutated beast tribe, that is, the rapid advancement of intelligence and this upright behavior began to appear. The time coincides surprisingly well with the time when Gong Yun graduated from the academy and joined the hunting team. In other words, the evolutionary transformation of mutant beasts is almost synchronized with Gong Yun. It's just not as fast as him, which is an extremely weird phenomenon.
Moreover, this phenomenon seems to only exist in one ring, that is, within a certain range of Gong Yun. They often walk and explore in the mutation zone. There are highly intelligent mutant beasts deep in the continent. This phenomenon has long existed, but in In the edge of this continent, there used to be very few mutant beasts with high intelligence. It could be said that there were none at all. Because once some mutant beasts have enough intelligence, they will migrate inland.
This is like a hierarchical circle. The further inward, the higher the life level of the mutated beast, and the more powerful and good at fighting it becomes.
But now, even the mutated beasts on the edge of the continent have begun to show high intelligence, and Gong Yun's bellicose and novelty-seeking behavioral characteristics seem to have a suppressive effect.
For hundreds of years, humans have not had a clear advantage, so there have not been many fierce conflicts with mutant beasts. There have only been a few major incidents, and humans have mostly been defensive.
But now, even the island owners are participating in radical strategies and starting to actively attack the mutated orcs. It would be too far-fetched to say that this change in the thinking of Hope Island's top brass was just because of Gong Yun, an autonomous mutant.
Does this mean that the overall thinking of human beings is also being changed by something?
Stop, there is a security patrol of the mutated cattle tribe in front of you, wait until they pass before you leave. Qin Yao's early warning message came from the three people's watches at the same time.
The three people quickly found a relatively secluded location and stopped. There was a family of mutant beasts entrenched not far from them.
A team of mutated cows that walked upright and on all fours walked slowly about a hundred meters in front of them. When passing by, the head cow who was suspected to be the leader of the team scanned this direction and found nothing unusual. Leading the team forward.
Don’t you think it’s weird that mutant beasts are militarized? Zuo Zuoteng asked in a low voice. On the surface, he was asking Gong Yun, but in fact, he was asking Qin Yao together.
Because he already has a better understanding of Gong Yun and Qin Yao. Although Gong Yun thinks differently from ordinary people and often comes up with unexpected ideas, Qin Yao must at least be a few steps ahead of him in terms of strategy.
It's just that Qin Yao was deliberately hiding it to improve Gong Yun. In other words, no matter whether Gong Yun's decision is absolutely correct or not, with Qin Yao's help, it will be perfect and achieve unexpected results.
