The Tyrannosaurus Rex failed to catch up, so Li Xiao had no choice but to return. Dudu Tyrannosaurus Rex Alarm Clock walked briskly, but he returned to the Crater Peninsula one step ahead of Zhou Qing.
Seeing Zhou Qing's team rushing back from afar, Li Xiao was not in a hurry to enter the crater. He turned the alarm clock and made a big circle around his home.
It's been a month since I moved here, and I haven't explored the terrain and biological distribution around the crater peninsula yet, so I just took this opportunity to take a look.
Directly south of the volcanic crater is a half-kilometer long canyon. A large group of herbivores live in the canyon, riding alarm clocks through it, disturbing many creatures.
There was a buzzing sound, and when I looked up, I saw several huge beehives of different heights, half as tall as a man, scattered on the rock wall of the canyon!
There are a large number of bees coming and going around...
Of course, the bees on Ark Island are by no means ordinary bees - each of these bees is as big as a palm, with yellow and black tattooed bodies and protruding spiked buttocks, and they look like they are not easy to mess with.
There are many such hives in the redwood forest on the central island, and Li Xiao hides far away every time he encounters one.
You know, these bees are much more difficult to deal with than a Tyrannosaurus Rex. Once these guys are angered, even the thick-skinned Tyrannosaurus Rex will have to hide.
However, danger is danger, and there are a lot of good things in that round honeycomb...
By the way, the alarm clock is protected by feathers and has range attacks like fire breathing. Isn't it the nemesis of these bees?
What a good idea. Tomorrow, after the alarm clock has a flame in its belly, you can try to build these hives.
With honey, Li Xiao can also think about taming the ground sloth!
With the giant ground sloth, there will be an endless supply of honey...
After crossing the canyon, we arrived at the western part of the volcanic crater. Here is a river, which is also the dividing line of the northwest ice sheet. Due to the temperature, the river water is freezing cold, and there are even many ice floes floating on it.
Looking across the river, the snow on Bingya Mountain never melts all year round!
A short river, no more than ten meters wide, is the dividing line between two worlds——
On this side of the river, the trees are lush and green, the stream is gurgling, and the creatures are still some herbivores such as Parasaurolophus and Triceratops;
On the other side of the river, it is covered with frost and snow, the vegetation is covered with ice, and the creatures are all dangerous animals such as direwolves and ferrets.
I have to say that the climate on Ark Island is so strange sometimes.
After crossing the west to the north, you will see a coastline more than ten kilometers long.
The terrain here is relatively gentle and the scenery is beautiful. There is also a small lake with very shallow water hidden under a cliff outside the volcanic crater.
The lake is crystal clear, making it a good place to play in the water and take a bath. Li Xiao plans to bring Zhou Qing here when he returns.
It just so happens that this place is close to the north exit of the volcanic crater. If you build some fences around the lake, you can also bring it into your own sphere of influence.
As for the wild king crocodiles wandering in the lake, hehe, let them live happily for a few more days.
Going further, Li Xiao saw an excellent place on the coast - the coastline here was sunken, forming an egg-shaped harbor, which was definitely an excellent place to trap underwater creatures.
The next step is to develop the ocean, which is where a dock can be built. Li Xiao sat cross-legged on top of the alarm clock and marked this area on the map.
The alarm clock kept pace, and soon reached the eastern part of the crater along the coastline.
This is the mouth of a river with a wide water area. Looking across the river, Yuanfeng Mountain stands in the distance.
Li Xiao once again saw the flying figures on the top of the mountain - they were the figures of the griffins, one of the top creatures in the Ark!
He looked at the top of Yuanfeng Mountain, and then looked back at the volcanic crater where his base camp was...
Fortunately, these griffons don't stray too far from their habitat.
However, it is time to put the base's air defense force on the agenda...
After walking around and returning to the crater, Li Xiao still couldn't forget the hives in the canyon.
No way, the taste of honey is a rare delicacy in Ark Island, where the food tastes monotonous.
Moreover, with honey, you can tame the giant ground sloth. Once you tame the giant ground sloth, you can deal with a huge swarm of spiders. Being able to deal with a huge swarm of spiders means you have the confidence to deal with the boss broodmother spider!
Of course, if you want to defeat the Broodmother Spider, you have to tame several of the giant ground sloths, a pet that specializes in suppressing insects.
Moreover, this is the lowest level broodmother spider.
At this point, I have to add some information about the four major bosses in Ark World:
If divided according to the challenge difficulty, the four bosses are also ranked high and low. The Broodmother is the weakest, and the final boss, the Inspector, is the strongest.
Except for the Inspector, the other three bosses have three challenge stages -
Easy, normal, difficult!
Each stage requires defeating a boss. In other words, a broodmother must be defeated three times before it is finally defeated!
Broodmother three times, Silverback King Kong three times, Fire Breathing Dragon three times, and finally 9 boss collectibles of different difficulties can be collected!
And these 9 collections are just one of the keys that open the door to the supervisor's location...!
The supervisor only needs to hit it once, but just to see it requires Li Xiao to put in a lot of effort!
"Alas, there is still a long way to go!" Li Xiao sighed, but he could only turn these pressures into motivation and urge himself to move forward.
He didn't explain the specific process to Zhou Qing, he just had to bear the pressure silently.
He is familiar with the Ark game and understands that defeating the Monitor and returning to Earth will be an extremely long process, and the time required will be measured in years.
Ten years? Twenty years? Or thirty years? Fifty years?
Li Xiao didn't know that he could only keep working hard in the direction called "going home"...
As for Zhou Qing and Zhou Yi, just listen to your own instructions and live each day to the fullest...
…
Early the next morning, Li Xiao rode the alarm clock again to the southern canyon.
Ignoring the herbivorous dragons that were frightened by the alarm clock and running around, he headed straight for the hives on the cliff with a clear goal.
Patting the alarm clock's head, Li Xiao jumped off its head from a distance and hid aside.
There is no way, the alarm clock is protected by thick feathers, but he does not - a palm-sized bee, his small body is afraid of being stung and crippled.
Just then, the alarm clock walked all the way to the beehive.
The beehive hanging high on the rock wall is at the same level as the head of the alarm clock. The swarms coming and going have long discovered the threat of the alarm clock!
Amidst the buzzing sound, dozens of bees with strong bodies and slender butts emerged from the bee swarm!
These are combat bees specifically responsible for protecting the nest!
"Alarm clock! Breathing fire!" Li Xiao shouted anxiously from the side.
The swarm of bees gathered into a black mass and headed straight for the alarm clock. At this moment, the alarm clock tilted its head and watched curiously as the flying black shadows surrounded it and kept bumping into it.
It must be said that the dense feathers on the alarm clock are definitely the nemesis of bees, and these bees cannot harm it at all.
The alarm clock looked at these "little guys" curiously, not at all annoyed at being attacked.
That's right, it's like ants attacking a strong man. The ants are fighting to the death, but they can't even hurt the strong man's hair.
Of course, nothing is certain, until a bee flew to its face and stung the alarm clock on its nose, everything changed...
