Origin Star Creatures (Part Two)

These large creatures, with wingspans of around 20 meters, are not suited to living in forests; their territory is the sky above the treetops.

After the Wind God took off, they quickly spotted a figure circling in the distant sky. The Wind God regrouped and flew towards that direction.

As they drew closer, the true forms of the figures gradually came into view. They looked like a type of large bird.

Perhaps because it's so hot on Big Origin Star, the lack of hair on their heads helps their brains dissipate heat, and the creatures there particularly dislike having hair on their heads.

The big monkey is bald, the bat is bald, and even these big birds are bald.

With their long necks, they look like vultures magnified dozens of times.

They are slightly smaller than the Wind God, with a wingspan of about fifteen meters. However, their robust build makes them appear to be heavier than the Wind God.

Their sharp beaks and massive claws make them look formidable fighters.

Soon, these giant birds also discovered the Wind God, and the two sky overlords of the planets were about to collide.

However, subsequent changes took some unexpected turns.

After letting out several mournful cries, the giant birds flapped their wings and flew away at full speed...

Rowan watched in the shadows and found it amusing. This group of behemoths with wingspans of 20 meters flew up in a massive, overwhelming display of power. The opposing flock of giant birds was not only smaller but also numbered only a dozen or so. With the Wind God charging in like that, it was no wonder the birds fled.

Sarah quickly realized where the problem lay, and the Wind God began to split into groups and fly off in different directions. Since a battle couldn't be fought for the time being, they decided to gather information first.

A day later, a basic topographical map of the continent appeared before Sarah.

Beyond the forest lies a vast plain, dotted with red and green grasslands and scattered with enormous trees.

In this continent, forests occupy a small area in the lower left corner, grasslands occupy the rest of the land, and their outer edges are surrounded by the ocean.

The lush grasslands nurture a multitude of creatures, most of which are hidden by weeds averaging over two meters tall. If it weren't for the Echolocation System of the scout Flying Bug, they would be quite difficult to spot.

However, the abundance of food also led to the emergence of many large creatures here.

Several species stand out, their enormous size allowing the Wind God to see them clearly even at an altitude of ten thousand meters, provided there are no clouds to obstruct their view.

For example, there is a creature codenamed "Ox Demon". They are quite numerous, resemble water buffalo, are 15 meters long and 7 or 8 meters high, have a high bulge on their backs, hard bony spikes on their tops and sides, and two pairs of curved, thick horns on their heads.

The Ox Demon are covered in solid muscles, and their massive bodies, weighing at least a hundred tons, put immense pressure on their limbs. As a result, their limbs are very short and thick, allowing them to swing their bodies and sway their horns within a limited range. However, the downside is that they can only move forward slowly; running is impossible.

With their formidable defenses, they resemble fortresses on the grasslands. To have such strong defenses, they must be herbivores.

It would be extremely difficult to sustain such a massive body using only the energy from plants. Therefore, the Ox Demon has spent its entire life eating since birth.

They kept eating and eating until the food they consumed could no longer satisfy their needs, and then they died of starvation. In the end, they contributed a gluttonous feast to the carnivorous creatures of the grassland.

Looking at the lush grass that showed no signs of diminishing around the Ox Demon, Rowan sighed, perhaps only in such a peculiar environment could such creatures be born.

Another type of creature, codenamed "Big Origin Giant Lizard," resembles a crocodile in appearance. Adults can reach a length of about 20 meters and are covered in keratinous scales. Their heads are like a combination of birds and demons, somewhat pointed and long, and their mouths are not flat like those of demons, but rather resemble cones.

Furthermore, their tongues are very long and flexible, capable of suddenly shooting out nearly 50 meters to snatch away small prey. Monitor lizards are more slender than crocodiles, but their limbs are much longer, making them much more agile than crocodiles. They can not only crawl quickly, but also leap and pounce short distances.

They are relatively rare and mostly inhabit rivers and swamps. They primarily feed on Ox Demon, with one Ox Demon being enough to feed a monitor lizard for a long time. Occasionally, they will also hunt some smaller creatures for a snack.

Besides these two distinctive large creatures, the next one we must mention is the true overlord of this grassland: a creature codenamed "Fierce Demon Wolf."

Although they are called Magic Wolf, they look more like smaller Tyrannosaurus from the Origin Star. Their heads resemble those of birds, but they have mouths like those of carnivorous dinosaurs, filled with various sharp teeth, and their jaw structure looks like they have an amazing bite force.

It has a slightly arched back covered with coarse, bristle-like spines, a slender waist, muscular legs, and feet designed for running and jumping. It also has a long, lizard-like tail.

However, what sets them apart from Tyrannosaurus is their forelimbs. While the Magic Wolf primarily runs on its hind legs, its forelimbs are not small at all; on the contrary, they are quite long and slender, resembling the arms of a primate, allowing them to swing powerfully. At the same time, the tips of its arms are equipped with sharp claws, enabling its strikes to inflict considerable damage.

The Magic Wolf are social animals, with populations ranging from 50 to tens of thousands, and are widely distributed throughout the grasslands.

They are like biological harvesters, constantly reaping swathes of life. At the same time, they deeply understand the importance of ecological balance. Although they cannot actively feed their prey, they can reduce the number of hunters.

Although the Magic Wolf are only 2-5 meters in size, their ability to move in packs and their meticulous coordination means that even the Big Origin Giant Lizard dare not provoke them.

At the same time, their understanding of their own kind is limited to their own group. Therefore, when two Magic Wolf packs meet, they will almost always have to fight a big battle. The larger one will wipe out the smaller one, and if they are of similar size, they will usually lose half of their Magic Wolf before both sides will stop fighting.

Perhaps this is also a way for them to maintain their predator population.

The other species will not be introduced one by one, as they are basically inferior and not worth mentioning.

The original plan of the Intellect was to remain in the forest and wait for the arrival of the real Rowan. Although those Ox Demons, giant lizards, and Magic Wolf seemed powerful, once the queen of Insect Empress updated the gene pool, these guys would be wiped out in no time.

Now, because we still need their genes, we can't afford to damage their habitat too much.
