On the other side, Lin Qiao and Bowwow happily finished the crane, then started to look for food for the king cobra in the space.
She put the feathers which had been dried by the sunlight into her space, then kept heading toward the zoo. The smell on the feathers was nearly gone.
Meanwhile, Bowwow leisurely followed behind her, licking its mouth with satisfaction.
Soon, they arrived at the territory of the amphibians. At that moment, an intense battle was happening there.
Lin Qiao excitedly crooked a finger toward Bowwow and said, "Come over here! Don't interrupt them... We'll just stay here and watch."
While speaking, he hopped onto a tree nearby and then climbed on top of it. Looking down from the treetop, she saw two giant creatures attacking each other in a dried pond.
Those were a boa and a giant crocodile.
The boa with clear stripes was way huger than the snake which was in her space. After all, boa was the most gigantic type among all serpents. After the apocalypse, that boa had mutated and grown as thick as a bucket, and at least fifty meters long.
The boa was dark-colored and with brown stripes. Its scales sparkled under the sunlight from time to time. At that moment, the boa was crazily twisting its body to coil the crocodile. However, the crocodile, which was about nine-meters long, was not easy to deal with.
The crocodile's four legs looked as strong as dinosaur legs. Its claws pressed firmly on the boa as it widely opened its jaws and bared its sharp teeth to attack the boa's head and neck, trying to bite its head off.
The boa was much nimbler than the crocodile. However, the latter was immensely strengthful with incredibly strong skin. It was indeed not an easy thing for the boa to strangle it to death.
Lin Qiao took a glass of water out of her space, then leisurely watched the two giant creatures try to kill each other from the tree. She wondered if the bucket-thick boa would be able to swallow the nine-meters-long crocodile even if it managed to kill it.
Lin Qiao understood that the serpents were greedy animals. They would try to swallow even the preys which were larger than themselves by many times over; and of course, many of them died from overeating.
Boa were even greedier than the other types of serpents.
Bowwow lied on a small hill nearby and watched the battle while licking its paws.
Lin Qiao sensed the surrounding area and found no scents of other animals from the area ten miles in radius. The other animals were either scared away by the boa and the crocodile, which had crazy strong vibes, or were eaten by them.
The strong ones ate the weaker ones... That was the law of the jungle.
The boa's eyes were filled with ferocity and hostility. It was clearly a brainless beast which had nothing but bestial instincts.
Lin Qiao had no interest in such highly mutated beasts. She only wanted to eat them.
She watched for a while and compared the fighting capacity and endurance of the two animals, soon figuring out which one would win and which one would lose.
She guessed that the boa would lose. It was nimble, but not strong enough. The crocodile obviously had greater strength than the boa, and was smarter as well. It didn't use its full strength, but was clearly trying to lengthen this battle and exhaust its enemy.
After figuring out the result, Lin Qiao lost her interest in that battle. She turned and jumped off the tree before calling Bowwow and leaving from the other side.
Bowwow stood up and followed behind her. Before leaving, it turned back and gave the two creatures a glance.
Lin Qiao found no herbivores when she walked into their lawn. That whole area was deserted.
It seemed that the herbivores which lived in this area were either hunted by those predators or hidden somewhere.
Lin Qiao stood by the lawn and sensed the scents in the air, then picked a direction to go.
She grasped the scent of some kind of animal from that area. She didn't know what those animals were, but did know that there was a giant group of them.
When she quietly walked to a woods area, she found some huge rats.
Yeah, she always found rats.
The mutation strengthened rats' already strong vitality and allowed them to survive and breed all over the world.
Dead, living, soft, hard, rats ate everything.
They multiplied so quickly, and lived in groups. Moreover, they feared nothing! Some people said that rats were timid, but they were clearly wrong. Nowadays, rats wouldn't even run away when they saw human beings.
In front of Lin Qiao was a huge group of large rats.
Squeak!
Squeeeek!
Squeak!
Near the edge of the woods areal, the shrill squeaks of rats could be heard.
Lin Qiao looked at those rats which were even twice as large as cats scattering on the ground and trees. Suddenly, she understood why the boa and the crocodile was fighting. They were probably fighting over this rat woods. What puzzled her was why those rats stayed in the woods without leaving.
She didn't approach those rats immediately, but asked the zombie dog to go."Bowwow, go over there and take a look."
"Ow!" Bowwow was attracted by those huge rats since long ago. It ate its full just now, but as a hound dog, it still had a wild heart. Seeing so many rats in front if it, it's wild nature was aroused in no time.
Lin Qiao stood outside the woods, kept sensing the scents in the air. There were too many rats in this area. Their scents had almost covered all the other smells.
But still, Lin Qiao managed to detect the scents of some other creatures.
Tens of thousands of large rats were darting about in the woods.
Once the zombie dog approached, the rats in the outer circle were agitated. They burst in sharp squeaks and gathered toward the dog.
The zombie dog wouldn't be afraid if there were only a few, or even tens of rats. However, countless rats were charging at it.
Bowwow took a fright, nearly turned and run. But soon, it remembered its power. It took a step backward, then sprung up, turned and released a stream of fire from its mouth.
Squeak! The countless rats burst in screams in the zombie dog's fire.
Many of them were set on fire. They stopped running, began rolling on the ground in pain.
In fact, after the apocalypse, rats actually started to eat zombies. They charged at the zombie dog because it was food in their eyes.
Those rats had absolutely no fear. As long as they spotted anything edible, they would risk their lives and rush at it.
