The two gorgosaurs were hiding opposite each other. The pack of pachyrhinosaurs was like a river between them. The ceratopsids were so many that it was impossible to see the end of the herd. Surely the plan of the gorgosaurs was to attack the pachyrhinosaurs and make them escape, and then focus on a single prey and capture it in chaos. It was an absolutely efficient strategy, much like the one of the lions or the wolves.However, the gorgosaurs didn't know that due to Sobek's constant attacks the pachyrhinosaurs had changed their defensive strategy! When they attacked, the gorgosaurs would have had a nasty surprise!Now the pachyrhinosaurus' defensive strategy was to stick together against the predator. When they flattened against each other, creating a living wall, the two gorgosaurs would have found themselves separated and unable to reach their companion. So Sobek could have attacked each one of them alone! If he had faced the gorgosaurs together, Sobek would have been in serious
By the time the leveling up was over, Sobek had reached a length of 25 meters and a height of 8 meters. Its size was now something no terrestrial predator had ever achieved. He was now even bigger than some sauropods!He was literally a titan among the titans. No other land predator was as big and powerful as he was! Once his abilities would have been maximized he would have been absolutely invincible. Soon, the Tyrannosaurus would officially lose its throne as king of the dinosaurs!The pack of pachyrhinosaurs had departed, but Sobek quickly found them just by sniffing the air. Now he could run at a speed of 26 km/h, almost on par with a t-rex. The pachyrhinosaurs could reach 35 km/h, but that was if they were alone and on the run; there was no way a whole herd could move so quickly. Too many animals in the same spot greatly reduced their mobility, and until they noticed the presence of a predator they had no reason to escape at maximum speed.Once he found it he was able to resume hi
When he woke he felt something tickle his lips. He opened his eyes and saw a small bipedal creature that was eating the remnants of his previous meals from his teeth.[Prey detected: Eoraptor lunensis, compsognathidae. Experience: 750 points]Apparently he had found a street cleaner. In the past as in the present there were always those tiny creatures that, in order to survive, went to eat in the mouths of the largest predators, and in return cleaned their mouths helping them with oral hygiene.Sobek decided to let it do. Even though he wasn't afraid of tooth decay since his teeth were constantly replacing it was still nice to have his mouth cleaned sometimes. Besides, he doubted that the eoraptor could give him more than 0.2, or even 0.1 skill points.They went on like this for half an hour, then Sobek decided that the little dinosaur had cleaned it up enough and got up. The eoraptor quickly fled as the spinosaurus moved. Sobek watched in amusement as he disappeared into the forest. I
The albertosaurus was now alone, but it still had the advantage of agility. On the contrary, there were two deinosuchus, but they were much slower and couldn't help but wait for the dinosaurus to attack first. In addition, the albertosaurus had another advantage: the two deinosuchus were quite far from each other, which meant that it could only deal with one of them at a time.Although the situation was particularly difficult for the albertosaurus, it was still the one in a position of advantage. With this knowledge in mind, it rushed to the nearest of the two crocodiles.The deinosuchus opened its jaws and tried to bite the dinosaur, but it was clear that it was too tired by now. Crocodiles out of the water got tired very quickly, and the bigger they were, the worse it was. For a deinosuchus, moving a body twelve meters long and weighing more than eight tons on the ground was a titanic undertaking; however powerful their muscles were, their body shape wasn't meant to
Sobek spent the whole day relaxing. He felt that after reaching that milestone he could allow himself some rest, so he found an area with shallow water and lay there, basking in the sun and enjoying the movement of the waves as if it were a massage.For the first time he was able to get a real sleep. Even if he slept in fact he always did so with his senses alert to take the slightest sign of danger. However, now that no one (apart from humans) could threaten him anymore, he could finally get a sleep worthy of the name!He slept all day and all night. The next morning he felt refreshed as ever in his life.When it was nice to be able to relax without being afraid of everything! He remembered that when he was human he had often complained about the few hours of sleep he could afford, but now he realized how precious it was to be able to sleep in a safe bed and not have to worry about anything or anyone. It was really true that humans didn't realize the gifts they
Sobek thought he had become familiar with that strange world by now, but one day he discovered that it could still hold great surprises for him. He had spent a whole week hunting along the lake shore and had now more than half of it explored. Unfortunately, however, he had managed to get very few preys. The problem was that he was interested in carnivores, which were much harder to find than herbivores. Unlike them, which almost always moved in packs and therefore were easy to spot even from a distance, the predators never moved in groups of more than three individuals, and when they reached the lake they tended to leave early. This was because the lakeshore was a bad place for hunting: unlike the forest that gave them cover, the lake and its surroundings were uncovered, preventing it from ambushing and thus capturing preys. As already said and verified, the idea of the carnivorous dinosaur hunting in open spaces roaring and devastating everything was simply false: any predator th
The meraxes was a predatory dinosaur that belongs to the family of giant carnivores like giganotosaurus, mapusaurus and carcharodonthosaurus. It could exceed ten meters in length and was taller than a modern house.The Neanderthals had begun to fidget in fright, and many of them had dropped their jugs in fear. They had put their weapons on, but it was clear from their eyes that they knew they would do nothing.The meraxes seemed to know that they were an easy prey. It opened its enormous jaws and roared. Some leaves fell from the trees for the extreme loud sound.Some of the Neanderthals shouted something to their companions, then threw themselves at the dinosaur. They threw their spears at the animal's paws and tried to hit it in the eye with their bows.But it was clear that they couldn't win. The difference of strength was too much. The skin of the meraxes was barely scratch by the spears and that only made the predator even angrier.Without the
Unbeknownst to Sobek, the Neanderthals he had encountered lived not far from the lake, on a rather high hill that soared above all the surrounding environment. The choice of that place was purely logistical: from an elevated position it was easier to see any large predators and it was possible to establish with more confidence whether it was safe to go out or not.The Neanderthal city was in fact surrounded by a huge wooden palisade made up of layers and layers of logs, seven meters high and almost two meters thick. If a large carnivorous dinosaur had worked hard, it might have been able to take it down, but no predator would have been stupid enough to waste time and energy on such small preys. In addition, the Neanderthals would have bombarded it from above with spears and arrows, and perhaps even with stones, which, although not very efficient, would have annoyed and perhaps even wounded it if they had hit in the right places. Any predator, even the largest and most ferocio
