During the simulation, time in the outside world basically does not pass.
Zhao Meng calmed down his mood a little and continued with a new round of simulation.
[In the first week, you are born from the egg and you become a Bengal monitor lizard. 】
Feeling the hot environment, Zhao Meng, a lizard, stuck out his tongue and observed the surrounding environment vigilantly.
"It starts again!"
"It seems those humans haven't arrived yet!"
[In the second week, you eat together with your brothers and sisters. With cooperation, you begin to eat and grow. 】
After seeing their brothers being kidnapped by the falcons, the remaining lizards managed to escape with their lives after selling their own brothers.
[In the third week, through continuous eating, your body size will further grow and you will undergo a transformation. 】
"I've finally grown up a little, and I have to go find those humans!"
Zhao Meng rubbed off a layer of skin on his body and looked into the depths of the rain forest.
In the last simulation, he avoided humans, but this time he was going to meet them.
Even though these humans would do shocking and incomprehensible things, Zhao Meng understood that his simulation would not proceed smoothly unless these humans were dealt with.
[In the first month, due to the food shortage crisis, you left the breeding ground early and began to explore the rainforest. 】
"found it!"
Because of his small size and light weight, Zhao Meng climbed up the tree easily.
Through constant climbing and looking far away, he finally found the traces of human activities, followed these traces and saw his target.
"That's a python!"
"They're actually riding pythons!"
Seeing those humans using pythons as mounts, his outlook was once again impacted.
"Who are these people?"
[In the second month, your growth rate is slowing down due to insufficient food intake. 】
"So they live here!"
During this month, Zhao Meng had been following and observing these four humans, forgetting sleep and food, and finally found their foothold, which was a simple tree house in the forest.
Watching the four people climb up to the tree house one by one to rest, Zhao Meng looked at his reflection in the puddles on the ground and thought to himself:
"What to do with them?"
Even though he has human intelligence, the state of the juvenile giant lizard limits his performance.
Without hands, there is no ability to make tools, and the greatest advantage of mankind no longer exists here.
"There are always more solutions than difficulties. We will definitely find a way to deal with these four people."
[In the third month, your food intake returns to normal and you continue to increase in size. 】
"Is this thing valuable?"
After another month of exploration, he finally found a way to deal with these people.
In order to make this method work smoothly, he took the risk and sneaked into the tree house of these people while the humans were not around.
Then he saw a scene in the tree house that horrified the monitor lizard.
On the roof of the tree house, there were densely hanging objects, which were small lumps of smoked and dried sarcoma.
There is a rough wooden sign above the small sarcoma with some numbers on it, which seems to have some meaning.
These tumors were dry and it was impossible to judge their original appearance from their shape, but Zhao Meng still determined what they were based on their smell.
"These poachers hunted this thing and preserved it with complicated craftsmanship. It seems that this thing is worth a lot of money."
Zhao Meng didn't know how valuable this thing was in the human world.
But he knew one thing, this was something he absolutely couldn't give up.
Without this thing, his simulation will definitely fail, and he will not be able to pass even the most important breeding node.
"But why did they do that to the female lizard?"
"Is it just because of some unique quirks?"
Zhao Meng didn't understand. After confirming the situation in the wooden house, he quickly crawled away and prepared to test his own response.
And the way to deal with it is also very simple, that is to use poison.
There are many poisons in the Bengal monitor lizard's diet, including some small venomous snakes.
The poison was available, and the only thing that made him embarrassed was that most of the venom of poisonous snakes needed to be injected into the blood to be effective. How should he inject the venom into these people.
[In the first week of the third month, the dry season is coming and your food becomes scarce. 】
Zhao Meng, who was lying on a high tree branch, observed the camp below. The poachers had returned to rest.
"Where did they bring back the female lizard this season?"
"etc!"
Seeing these people torturing the female lizard, Zhao Meng's eyes lit up.
"Which part of the human body is the most vulnerable? Wounds are most likely to occur?"
Seeing the incomprehensible behavior of these people, Zhao Meng thought of the place where he would poison them.
"That's it!"
[In the second week of the third month, the sun is scorching the earth, the rainforest area is about to enter the dry season, and your food intake begins to decrease. 】
The issue of food had been forgotten by Zhao Meng. At this time, his attention was entirely on the camp below.
The lizard has been killed. I don’t know when there was a goat in the camp.
Although the lizard was gone, the appearance of the goat gave Zhao Meng a new target. Taking advantage of the darkness, he poured a lot of poison into the goat's body.
"Thankfully there are no wounds on the goat's body, otherwise the goat would have died."
"You should come back quickly, otherwise my efforts yesterday will be in vain."
Recalling the poisoning process yesterday, Zhao Meng felt lingering fear.
After all, he is in the form of a lizard. Whether it is taking poison or poisoning, without hands, doing these things is very time-consuming and laborious. Fortunately, everything is ready.
"came back!"
…
The four brown-skinned humans in the distance were carrying the prey they had hunted during this period back to their camp.
After removing valuable fur and important medicinal organs, these poachers begin cooking the remaining parts of the prey.
After eating and drinking, these people gathered around the goat and shouted something,
"They seemed to be debating how to divide the goat?"
Zhao Meng on the tree saw this scene and sneered secretly in his heart:
"It's just a matter of order. Are you so anxious to die?"
During this time, Zhao Meng observed a strange phenomenon. These four poachers seemed to particularly like to take turns enjoying a prey, rather than each eating his own.
He didn't know whether this was a cultural trait or whether they ate together to enhance friendship.
In short, this characteristic allows his poisoning plan to be carried out more smoothly.
"here we go!"
…
There were birds flying in the forest, and the sky became gloomy at some point.
Even though it has entered the dry season, there is still light rain.
Raindrops fell on Zhao Meng's eyelids, blurring his vision.
After an unknown amount of time, Zhao Meng saw the goat lying on the ground and several poachers lying around the camp.
Because of the sequence, the last poacher was the least poisoned. He fled the camp for a distance, seemingly wanting to seek help elsewhere.
But in the face of Zhao Meng, he still couldn't escape far from the camp even though he had spent so much effort to find the neurotoxin.
At this time, the last escapee was not completely dead yet,
He fell down not far from the camp, pointed at the goat in the camp, stared, and called several times in disbelief.
Then he stared and died.
"it is finally over!"
Looking at these poisoned poachers, Zhao Meng did not feel any sympathy in his heart.
"They deserve it!"
[In the eighth month, the breeding season is here, and your instinct drives you to do something. 】
"It's really gone!"
Zhao Meng observed the breeding ground for a while. Except for the four humans, no one else interfered with the simulation.
After confirming the situation, Zhao Meng successfully completed the task.
"There should be no problems with this simulation!"
[In September of the first year, the breeding season has arrived. You have not participated in the breeding, and the accumulated hormones have made you manic. 】
"No, I still have to go!"
Another year passed without human intervention. Zhao Meng lived very comfortably. He originally did not want to continue participating in reproduction.
After all, he has completed a mission and he wants to continue studying the method of cultivating immortals.
But unfortunately, reptiles like lizards are different from humans after all, and it is difficult to calm down during the fixed estrus season.
[In October of the next year, you experienced the breeding season and returned to normal life again. 】
"Sure enough, only after participating can you calm down better."
Zhao Meng continued to review the numerology and patterns used in the later stages of Ju Yang Kung Fu.
"I don't know, what entries can be obtained from this lizard?"
"From the current point of view, there is nothing special. Only the humans who wander in are a little strange. Could it be that there are also entries on them?"
[In July of the sixth year, the breeding season has arrived...]
"Body functions have declined, and the lifespan of the Bengal monitor lizard does not appear to be long."
After participating in the activity, Zhao Meng muttered and continued to review the immortal cultivation techniques.
After experiencing several simulations, he has become extremely proficient in the theory of cultivating immortals.
"According to the original plan, the magic network was to be used to break through the Nascent Soul stage, but who would have thought that the plan could not keep up with the changes."
[In September of the ninth year, the breeding season has arrived. Due to physical factors, you cannot participate in it. 】
"I'm old!"
Zhao Meng did not do anything else, but hid in a safe place and prepared to live the rest of his life.
The organs in his body seemed to sense his weakness and no longer forced him to do anything.
He can finally retire in peace.
[In April of the eleventh year, your organs begin to decay and your life span is about to come to an end]
On the dilapidated tree house, Zhao Meng swallowed a mouthful of dried food with difficulty.
He looked at the looming white bones in the forest and felt the condition of his body.
Zhao Meng knew very well that his simulation was coming to an end.
"What an ordinary life!"
"The only ones who can cause surprise are these poachers."
"It's over!"
The pouring rain came, and he slowly closed his eyes in the rain and lost consciousness.
[Simulation successful! 】
Zhao Meng's consciousness returned to his body,
The huge phantom with a human head and a snake tail in the phantom space began to clear away the influence left by the lizard on him.
Everything seems like a dream, as if it was yesterday and far away.
The gap in time quickly disappeared due to the interference of the shadow, and Zhao Meng thought of his current situation.
"Yun Xin, where are you?"
"Huh? Didn't we just communicate?"
Zhao Meng put down the communication jade talisman and came to the shadow space with a thought.
He looked at the Bengal monitor lizard's light group that had turned white and could be simulated for two weeks.
Although the impact of the lizard on him had dissipated, the shock of those poachers had not disappeared.
"let's start!"
Zhao Meng used his mind to touch the colored light tube in front of the phantom, and a golden light flashed.
"Um!?"
“The first time I drew an entry, I got money!”
The golden light dissipated, and the content of the entry was revealed.
[Speciality Attraction (gold) (Into the Adventure) (I have a wide range of hobbies) (Active Trigger) (Use with caution)]
"You will have a certain attraction to beings outside your own domain, realm, sect, class, order, division, genus, and species, and make them perform instinctive leaping behaviors."
"Note that the probability of attraction decreases from domain to species!"
"What?"
Looking at the introduction of the entry, Zhao Meng's thinking stopped for a moment.
"Is this an entry that can appear on a lizard?"
Zhao Meng stabilized his mind and started reading from the beginning.
"(Into the adventure)!"
"So, it has something to do with those intruding humans?"
"That means this is an adventure!"
"This is the first time we have seen this in simulation."
Looking back on the simulation process, Zhao Meng realized that if he hadn't poisoned the goats, he would have killed the poachers.
According to normal simulation logic, his simulation this time was much more difficult than the ordinary second-round simulation.
"Interesting! There are unexpected encounters." Zhao Meng muttered and continued to read the introduction at the end of the entry:
"It's a good feature to use proactively."
"(Use with caution)"
"Hey! The system actually prompts you to use it with caution!"
"Such a prompt has never appeared in previous entries. This entry..."
Although there were a large number of entries he had obtained, such a hint had never appeared. Even the cloud inheritance that almost drained him had never given such a hint.
"The simulation system thinks this entry is dangerous, so how dangerous is it?"
Zhao Meng suppressed his eagerness to move, read the entry again, and pondered on something.
He can still understand some of the introduction in the previous paragraph:
"The existence of non-domain, realm, phylum, class, order, family, genus and species."
He vaguely remembered that this was a certain way of dividing biological types.
For example, humans are a species of primates and the family Hominidae.
"But does this classification method also work in this other world?"
"And what does it mean to have an instinctive crossover in the introduction?"
At this moment, in Zhao Meng's mind, the behavior of the four hunters bringing back various creatures from time to time appeared.
He also thought of some news from his previous life, such as a hornet's nest, engine exhaust pipe, and light bulb... He seemed to understand the meaning of this explanation.
Zhao Meng continued to look back:
"The probability of attraction decreases from domain to species!"
"this……"
"Wait, it's decreasing, not increasing"
After seeing the last part of the introduction, Zhao Meng thought for a moment and finally realized how terrifying this entry was.
"That is to say, the less human you are, the easier it is to attract strange things!"
"Hiss~"
Zhao Meng couldn't help but take a breath of air-conditioning. If he used this term, God knows what kind of strange and incomprehensible things would be attracted to him.
"No wonder it reminds you to use it with caution... The universe has no boundaries and everything is possible!"
"No, let's put this entry aside for now!"
…
Zhao Meng calmed down and continued to extract the remaining entries.
Although [Trait] is a golden entry, the effect it describes is really terrifying.
But this kind of system reminded him to use the terms carefully, which made him feel a little scared.
"continue!"
With a thought, Zhao Meng once again triggered the colorful lottery tube for extracting entries. A purple light flashed and the content of the entries appeared.
[Tongue taste perception (purple) (you can know the world just by talking!)]
"Your tongue will undergo changes similar to that of a lizard, and will become a sensitive sniffing organ. Through the tongue, you can sense the environment and some status information of the same kind."
…
"Perceiving the environment and similar information is a good entry. It is very helpful for exploration. The only drawback is that the tongue will become like a lizard."
Thinking that his tongue would become thin and long, Zhao Meng frowned and continued to extract the next entry.
