After half an hour, Sobek heard the roar of the engines approaching. He promptly plunged back into the water: he couldn't risk to be seen, not now at least. His plan was carefully thought out and he knew exactly how he had to proceed.When Wheathley finally reached where Karl's last transmission had come from, he found only one of the boats overturned and another on fire behind a small passage in the mangroves. A real massacre that left not even a single survivor.The other poachers were nervous. Such a sight was enough to worry even men accustomed to death. "Was it the spinosaurus to do this, boss?" one of them asked."It seems obvious to me. No other animal would be strong enough to move a motorboat like that" Wheathley grumbled as he watched the wreckage of the burning speedboat. Only a creature that swam with the speed of a boat could do such damage.Suddenly one of the poachers shouted: "Over there! It's over there!"Everyone turned to the spot he had indicated. In the distance th

Sobek already had 26,000 experience points, but he needed 90,000 to level up. Staying in the vicinity of the oxalaias' nest he could have obtained several new points in just a few days, but when he returned to their islet he found that the oxalaias were already gone.Unfortunately, what he had feared had happened: feeling in danger, the oxalaias had taken their cubs and ran away all together. Sobek had done his best to not frightening them, but the arrival of the poachers had changed everything. While humans would most likely never return, at least not for a long time, the oxalaias had no way of knowing this, and no animal would have remained in a place where it felt in danger.The oxalaias had a head start of at least three hours and the water helped them to hide their smell. Sobek could track an aquatic animal, but only when it was stationary; there was no way to follow them if they were on the move and had hours of advantage. His nose was certainly not as powerful as the one of a t-

"Darius, how would you classify the animals on our right?"A blue and white boat about thirty meters long was moving placidly on the river. Above it was a group of at least fifty people, most of whom clustered along the right side of the boat.The person who had asked the question was a woman in her thirties, still very handsome and with a youthful and energetic appearance. She had brown hair combed in a tuft and wore a very large white jumpsuit, suitable for repelling the sun's rays. The other passengers, except for the ship's crew, were dressed more casually, even if many of them seemed to be beginning to regret their stylistic choice because of the heat; none of them seemed to be over twenty.The guy named Darius was a rather short, very skinny in build dark-skinned guy. He was looking at the herd of dinosaurs ahead of them, placid herbivores with a large crest on their backs and a duck's beak. After a short wait he gave his answer."I would say ouranosaurs, professor. A rare specie

The university published the article the next day. Many people, thanks to the power of social networks, already knew of the existence of the spinosaurus, but when the news ended up in the scientific gazettes even the 'old school' part of the scientific world became aware of it.The discovery of that spinosaurus that had broken all previous records inflamed scientists and biologists around the world. It has been known for some time that spinosaurs could reach 17 meters, but it had never been imagined that this record could be broken and that this animal even could appear in nature. Yet, after careful analysis of the photos taken and the videos shot, the experts could only agree with Jamie's measurements: the spinosaurus measured at least 18 meters.In a flash, infinite hypotheses were speculated on the enormous dimensions reached by the animal. Some thought of some form of gigantism, others hypothesized bone diseases that accelerated its growth. However, the most agreed with Jamie's ide

After calming down, Sobek returned to the evolution interface to give a better look at it.Now a new System had become visible: the [Weapons system] icon appeared next to the [Food system]. Even though he couldn't open it, he already knew what it was. Now that he knew that those [Secondary systems] were used to prepare his army, it wasn't hard to figure out what that was given its name.Once he got it, he could create weapons of war!Sure, this meant seeing them first though...He shook his head. There was no point in mulling it over now: he had to wait for the next evolution to get it. He would have thought about it later, now he had other things to think about.He had unlocked five interface slots in the [Food system], but three were still missing. It was annoying, but he was patient: when the time came he would have asked the dinosaurs to tell him what they ate, and they would have shown it to him and allowed him to unlock the necessary slot.However, at the moment the [Food system]
