Chapter 40: 3-corner plains, hell aquarium!

Chapter 40 Delta Plains, Hell's Aquarium! (Second round of recommendation, please read and recommend)
After eating and drinking, Chu Xu followed the method of packing food before and used the stomach of the Triceratops to pack the leftover meat, even the crocodile meat of the Montana alligator was not left out.

In his previous life, he had tasted crocodile meat, which was low in fat and cholesterol and high in protein. It had the delicious taste of aquatic animals and the wild fragrance of terrestrial animals.
It is also said that it contains highly effective antibodies and hemoglobin with a unique structure, which can enhance one's immunity and blood oxygen uptake capacity, and is beneficial to physical health.

Continuing on the road, Chu Xu and his family followed the footprints left by the migrating group of herbivorous dinosaurs without worrying about going in the wrong direction.

A week later, Chu Xu saw a number of Styx geese flying across the sky, also migrating from the north.

The Hell Goose, nicknamed the Hell Duck, combines the appearance of a flamingo and a duck. It belongs to the Anseriformes family and lived from the Late Cretaceous to the Miocene. It is one of the few prehistoric birds that survived the mass extinction of dinosaurs.

These Styx geese also have the migratory habit of migrating with the change of seasons, living and resting near water.

Seeing them means that the destination is within sight.

Finally, at dusk that day, a vast and boundless river appeared in front of Chu Xu's family. Along its banks was a delta plain formed by fertile alluvial soil, stretching vastly under the blue sky, blue as a thousand miles.

This great river is the main channel of the Missouri River, flowing eastward from the newly formed Rocky Mountains to the Western Interior Seaway.

Even the cruel drought season could not take away her broad mind, and she still irrigated and nourished the greenery and life with her endless source of life.

Arrived!

After more than a month's long-distance migration, Chu Xu and his family finally arrived at this vibrant and fertile land.

In the moist and warm air, the grass and trees are lush and green, and the waters are surrounded by rivers and lakes, from low clusters of ferns to tall bushes of tree also trees, from lonely cycads to clusters of magnolias, from mighty rivers to trickling streams and tranquil lakes.

This fertile land, which is rarely seen in the dry season, provides an excellent living environment for various animals, and the diverse organisms, rich series and communities form a complete food chain, allowing various organisms to restrict and depend on each other.

The migrating group of herbivorous dinosaurs had arrived before Chu Xu and his family. He looked across the vast delta plain and could see their figures everywhere.

The familiar Triceratops, Torosaurus, Edmontosaurus, Ankylosaurus, Strange Dragon, Pachycephalosaurus, Struthiomimus, Leptoceratops...

In the next short period of time, they no longer have to travel long distances and work hard, and can stay here temporarily until the rainy season comes next year, and then migrate back to the north.

In addition, there were also many dinosaur figures that Chu Xu had rarely or never seen before.

There’s the “last sauropod,” Alamosaurus;
Bravoceratops, a "close relative of Triceratops";

"A close relative of Edmontosaurus" Noblesaurus minor;
"A close relative of Ankylosaur" Glyptodon;
"A close relative of the Styxraptor" Navajo Warsaurus, etc.

These dinosaurs were the native inhabitants of this southern deltaic plain, and when compared with the dinosaurs from the northern deciduous forests, many similarities can be found, but there are also some differences.

It is true that the local environment and climate determine the local animals.

Continuing to walk along the main channel of the Missouri River, Chu Xu finally saw a shallow sea beyond the horizon at the end of his vision.

This is the Western Interior Seaway that divided the North American continent in two during the Cretaceous period.

The Western Interior Seaway as a whole is a large inland sea that, at its largest, stretches from the Rocky Mountains in the west to the Appalachians in the east, and is 970 kilometers wide;

It runs through the Arctic Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico from north to south, is 3200 kilometers long, and its deepest point is nearly 800 meters. Its area is comparable to the Mediterranean Sea in later generations.

However, at the end of the Cretaceous period, the Laramide orogeny caused the North American land plate to rise, and the Western Interior Seaway gradually shrank, and it completely disappeared in the Cenozoic Era after the extinction of the dinosaurs.

The western inland seaway in front of Chu Xu is now much smaller, but still magnificent and legendary. It is a warm and rich sea area. The inflow of rivers makes its water lighter, rich in plankton and algae, and has a large number of crustaceans, gastropods, bivalves and ammonites.

There are also dusk birds and fish birds that are good at diving and fishing, huge ancient giant turtles, and giant squids that are comparable to giant squids.
Fierce predatory fish such as sharks, spear-toothed fish, swordfish, protosaurus, and Bang's fin, as well as plesiosaurs and mosasaurs that are at the top of the marine food chain.

Because this sea area is home to a variety of prehistoric marine animals of huge size and ferocious temperament, which is unique in the history of the earth, it has earned a horrifying title - Hell Aquarium!

"At this point in time, the land, ocean, and sky of North America are all the versions of hell..."

Chu Xu secretly complained that in this version of North America on the eve of the dinosaur extinction, the land, ocean and sky were all hell-level difficult.

There was Tyrannosaurus Rex on land, Mosasaur in the ocean, Quetzalcoatlus in the sky, and the rest of the land dinosaurs, ocean fish, and sky birds also advanced in parallel, with a hundred schools of thought contending with each other.

But it is precisely because of this that future life will be more challenging!
……

As night fell, the Chu Xu family, who had been traveling all day, found a place to rest for a while.

Exhausted, Xianyue and Liuxing fell asleep immediately. After more than a month's long-distance migration, they were both thinner than before.

Fortunately, they all persevered, and life will gradually get better from now on.

The exhausted Dragon Mother lay down, closing her eyes to rest but not falling asleep.

Now their family is still wandering and has not found a new territory. They may be attacked by other predators at any time, so the Mother of Dragons has not let down her guard.

Chu Xu was not in a hurry to sleep. Instead, he looked up at the starry sky, checked his current situation, and thought about his next plan.

"Check my properties panel."

At the command, the data panel in front of him immediately popped up——

[Name]: Chu Xu
Age: 12 months
[Race]: Agumon (male)
【Growth stage】: Adolescence

[Four-dimensional attributes]: Strength 415, Agility 415, Constitution 435, Spirit 425
[Evolution Points]: 30
[Skills]: Flame Claw, Flame Fang, Flash Charge, High-Speed ​​Movement

[Special move]: Small flame
[Achievements]: Overlord's Talent (Elementary), Telepathic Perception (Elementary), Fluid Armament (Elementary)

[Next Evolution Form]: Tyrannosaurus

……

In the blink of an eye, it has been almost a year since Chu Xu was born. Counting the days, it will be Chu Xu’s first birthday in a few days.

However, at this time, Chu Xu's physical development is already comparable to that of a 9-10 year old Tyrannosaurus Rex, and he is not far from the adolescence of 14 years old.

By that time, Chu Xu should leave Long Ma and officially start his independent life.
