Chapter 139 New Creatures
Chapter 139 New Creatures
But just as Shi Qian was about to get close, a sharp eagle cry interrupted his movements.
Shi Qian turned around and saw a figure swooping down towards him.
The initial distance was already beyond the radar's detection range, so the user only noticed the other party when it made a sound.
The speed was so fast that some blurry images appeared, and Shi Qian's eyes couldn't quite make out the shapes.
But his good fighting habits still made him throw the trident directly, and summon another one to hold in his hand.
He even started considering whether or not to buy a shield...
This dimension feels strangely dangerous from all angles.
As it turned out, Shi Qian's vigilance was useful.
Because the eagle was hit by Shi Qian's trident but was not dead, it only slowed down and paused in the air for a moment before continuing its charge.
Shi Qian kept shooting arrows, and finally killed him when he was only about five squares away.
"Is the health bar really that thick...?"
[Slay hostile creature: Filthy Hawk]
[Unlock Abilities: Dive Attack, Hunger Inflicted, Nausea Inflicted]
[Skills have been modified to adapt to the host's body]
[Hunger-attached hosts have been detected; only nausea-attached hosts are being recorded this time.]

Shi Qian keenly noticed that the system entries had changed; previously they were all for "killing monsters," but now they were for "hostile creatures."
Is it because they are native life forms of that dimension?
That doesn't make sense either; zombie worms are native creatures of the Frozen Dimension...
Why isn't the zombie worm listed as a hostile creature in the entry?
Or is it because Ei-taka has a brain?
The shriek was accompanied by a dive, its purpose clear, and it seemed to be attacking because the creature in the tree was getting close.
That makes sense... right?
Shi Qian felt that if he could find the creatures that lived around the boiling spring, he could find the answer to this question.
While thinking, I looked through the skill details.
Shi Qian himself had no problem with the system changing skills to adapt to the changes.
With a system in place, is it really that strange that it can do this?
[Dash Critical Strike Level 1: Increases maximum speed by 10% when 5 squares away from the target. This melee attack will always be a critical hit. Cooldown: 60 seconds]
[Nausea +1: Inflicts nausea on the target for 5 seconds. Cooldown: 30 seconds]
The dash critical strike limits its range to melee combat...
Shi Qian currently has more ranged attack methods, and his only two commonly used melee attacks are self-destruction and stabbing with a trident.
However, the additional effect of this skill is quite good; it will always trigger a critical hit.
Although Shi Qian doesn't yet know his critical damage output...
Since we're already here, let's unlock them all first. Each skill costs 600 energy points, which is a piece of cake for Shi Qian right now.
After reviewing the skills, Shi Qian returned to the baobab tree.
I haven't even seen what those creatures are yet.
However, judging from the current situation...
This tree is very likely the nest of that filthy eagle, and inside... should be its cubs.
The Filthy Eagle is quite large, larger than the Phantom Wing, and has a wider and thicker back.
Relatively speaking, it might be a more suitable type of mount than the Phantom Wing.
I don't know if the eaglets can be tamed.
He felt that if the eagle cubs could be tamed, there might be people in this dimension who specialized in "beast taming".
Rocket launchers are clearly designed for air and long-range attacks; this group is probably the enemy of Fangxu Life.
There are three chicks in this nest. Their feathers haven't molted yet and are mostly white. They look a lot like a finches, but they are larger and have yellow beaks. Although it's pixelated, it's incredibly cute.
Upon seeing Shi Qian approach, the three eaglets in the nest kept backing away.
Shi Qian started taking out food to see which food they would be interested in. It would be best if they could be tamed. If not, he would leave them there for now and see if they had any other owners. If they did, he would leave. If not, he would take them with him for now and maybe they would become accustomed to each other over time.
When the food in his hand was changed to rabbit meat, the eagle cub moved forward a little, but was still quite far from Shi Qian.
It seems that the native creatures in this dimension are not like the pigs, cows, and sheep in the main world, which are purely controlled by AI instincts. They all seem to have some intelligence.
However, if there is food that interests them, then it is highly likely that they can be tamed.
Shi Qian started feeding the eagle raw rabbit meat, and he also took out the cooked meat, but the eagle cub didn't seem to like it. It glanced at it and then moved it to its other hand to gnaw on the raw meat.
Before long, red hearts appeared on the heads of all three eaglets, indicating that they had been tamed.
Shi Qian felt as if something had been added to his panel.
After searching around, I found that the data for these three eagle cubs had been added to the monster upgrade panel.
It seems that I can not only use the vanilla Minecraft to command tamed creatures, but I can also control them myself.
Shi Qian fed them some raw rabbit meat, but they showed no signs of growth. It seemed that they couldn't be artificially matured, so they could only grow naturally.
After catching them on Huanyi's back, Shi Qian set off.
Some time later, a harbinger eagle returned to its nest, looked at its empty home and the fallen objects on the ground... and let out a mournful cry.
...
Just as Shi Qian guessed, there are other forms of life in this dimension.
A type of human that looks a lot like the pre-made skins in some international version servers.
They resemble normal humans, but their skin is darker, which fits the image of a desert.
They can indeed "control beasts," both those in the sky and those on the ground.
Shi Qian also saw an animal that looked like a leopard, which they were riding.
But Shi Qian didn't get too close; he immediately moved away after seeing the person.
Their fighting strength doesn't look weak, and they've already assembled their troops.
Judging from the direction, it really is heading towards Fangxu Life...
Why is there war everywhere...?
A new direction, a new group.
Flying in the Phantom Wing in this flat, open space feels great, and it's also very fast.
But as soon as he entered the new group, Shi Qian sensed that something was wrong.
That's weird...
So he reversed the car back to the dry grassland area, and that feeling disappeared again.
Even with radar activated at the edge of the new swarm, nothing can be detected.
There are no living things at the edges; they can be seen both underground and on the surface.
As soon as I stepped into the sand, that strange feeling returned.
This feeling is indescribable; you can't even tell where it comes from.
Once back on the back of the Phantom Wing, Shi Qian began to circle the edge of this new group.
No matter where you enter, even above the sand, you'll get that strange feeling.
Moreover, it becomes stronger the further one goes into the colony...
What the heck...
Are there other intelligent life forms in this dimension?
However, in order to reduce the physical stress, Shi Qian left the group first.
It's so uncomfortable; I feel like my whole body is being pricked and itchy inside.
But it wasn't really itchy, and I didn't feel like I was being watched or locked on by anything.
