For the next two days Sobek tried to avoid the torvosaurs as much as possible, not wanting to risk any confrontation with them, not even the smallest and harmless; however, that doesn't mean that he hadn't spied them. After all, knowing the enemy was the key to surviving even in the most extreme and dangerous situation. The more he learned, the better chance he had of getting out from there alive and unharmed.As he already knew, they hunted in pairs; although they were a family group of about a dozen individuals, generally only two of them left the pack and went hunting. The others remained in the clearing waiting for them. Also, generally the ones that went to hunt were all young adults: the oldest ones or the youngest ones remained in the clearing, and they spent almost all their time lying around, cuddling, licking each other and playing.Even if they were just two, however, Sobek never dared to confront them. After all, two young adult torvosaurs were more than enough to defeat hi
According to the current knowledge of Earth's paleontologists, the andrewsarchus was the largest carnivorous mammal ever lived on the planet. Although most modern reconstructions saw it as an animal more similar to a warthog than to a wolf or in any case an active predator, it was still very large by the standards of a mammal. It reached the impressive length of more than five meters and a height at the withers of almost two meters.By comparison the Bengal tiger was just a adorable kitten, and even the massive polar bears were smaller than it.However, its size was still minimal in a messy world where dinosaurs, mammals and any other creatures lived together. Even if the andrewsarchus could be considered the top predator in the mammal kingdom, it still had no chance against large predatory dinosaurs. Ceratosaurs, allosaurs, carnotaurs, giganotosaurs, carcharodontosaurs, mapusaurs, tirannosaurs: they all could kill it with a single bite. Compared to the giant reptiles of the past, even
Jocelyne was surprised by a sudden roar that the spinosaurus launched before it started to scrape the ground. It was a behavior she had never seen. This worried her quite a bit: even though she was not an expert, she knew that if an animal suddenly assumed an unexpected and confusing behavior it was a bad sign. Yet for some reason the dinosaur seemed... happy?After a few seconds, however, she saw the dinosaur's muzzle approach her. As it had already done many times, it grabbed her, being careful to not hurt her; however, unlike the other times, it didn't put her on the ground, but began to run at great speed in an unknown direction.Jocelyne's blood froze instantly. In her pespective, the spinosaurus was clearly trying to run away. This could only mean that they were in danger. Had it found them? Was the mysterious predator coming? Was the spinosaurus trying to escape with her?Even though she was relieved that her protector didn't want to leave her, she was still anxious: what if the
Sobek concluded that this was absolutly not his day. If he still had the gift of speech he would probably have cursed God and any other deity known and not known to humanity in at least fifty different ways. His greatest fear had come true: two large carnivores were in front of him ready to fight, and he had no way to escape because behind him were humans armed from feet to teeth.He was literally in the middle of a crossfire. If he had at least maximized [Regeneration] he would have been calmer, because he could have at least healed immediately from bites or gunshots; he would just have had to be careful to not get hit in a vital spot. Instead, the skills was still only at level 3/5. Even though his healing speed was already much faster than that of any normal living creature, it was still too slow to be of any use to him in that moment.Sobek screamed of anger in his head. God had said she wasn't going to intervene in his life, but sometimes he had the impression that someone was hav
Everything could be said about Marcus Jersey: that he was someone a real shark when it's talking about finance, that he didn't look anyone in the face when it came to money, that he stopped at nothing to achieve his goal, but not that he wasn't a man of honor. Just like he demanded that everyone pay the debts they had contracted with him, he always paid the debts he contracted with someone else, in one way or another.That's why he couldn't let that dinosaur die. He hadn't understood very much what Jocelyne had said (in reality, he hadn't understood very much the entire situation), but he understood that the dinosaur had saved his daughter's life and that was enough for him. He also had proof that it was protecting her when it got on top of her and had protected her with its claws when the two torvosaurs appeared. Not only that, but despite being at a clear disadvantage it had attacked the two carnivores, so as to draw attention to itself and allow Jocelyne to get away. It was risking
"Damn, that's really hurt!"Sobek didn't remember ever experiencing such pain since reincarnating and perhaps not even in his previous lives. The torvosaur's bites burned his skin as if there was hot iron on it. The wounds that the carcharodontosaurus had inflicted on him days ago were nothing in comparison.As soon as he was far enough away from the humans he threw himself on the bodies and began to consume them as fast as he can. Each of them gave him 7 skill points, which added to the ones he already had gave him a total of 19."Update [Regeneration]! Now!" he screamed in his head as he watched the skill level rise to 4/5. Unfortunately, he now only had 9 skill points. "What a drag! Why am I missing one!? Are you kidding me?!?"The pain in the wounds had subsided, but they still burned. Sobek wasn't going to hold onto that pain for too long. "A prey... anything..."He ran to the river and began frantically searching the shore. Fortunately, he almost immediately found a group of smal
Over the next few days, Sobek devoted himself to exploring his new hunting area. He quickly concluded that it was a very favorable place, full of prey that was quite easy to catch; nothing too big and armored, but at the same time not too small either. A very good place consequently, where he could easily get a lot of new experience points. After making sure there weren't other predators too big, he started to rampage.It was now a carnivorous dinosaur 22 meters long and 7.2 meters high, weighing 11 tons, and he could also run up to 23 km/h. He could already almost be considered a mythological monster, a real devastator of lands. There was no way the preys escaped him.The amount of experience to level up again was 210,000, but in a short time Sobek had already accumulated over 100,000 points. This is because the preys in that area were particularly slow and easy to catch.He had found that mostly Permian creatures dominated the area. That was an era when animals were not as gigantic a
Mitch Morgan was an award-winning biologist who taught at Harkonsis University in the Confederate States of Vinland, one of the world's greatest economic powers. He was responsible for numerous scientific successes, that went from the discovery of new species to the study of the behavior of predatory dinosaurs that had made the lives of those who had to face them much easier. His name was known throughout the scientific community, and although he was not one of the most renowned scientists ever, he was still one of the most famous.For all his life he had traveled from one part of the world to another, exploring territories still untouched by human presence, discovering creatures with such bizarre shapes that it would have been difficult to believe that they really belonged to that world and were not aliens from outer space. He had cataloged, classified, studied and described every single new creature he had discovered, whether it was a dinosaur, a mammal-like reptile, an ancient synap
