The sunlight shines through the gaps in the leaves, forming pillars of light between the trees.
These light pillars change their angles as the sun's position changes. When the sun sets in the west, these light pillars also shine obliquely on the ground, and their light is no longer dazzling, but becomes extremely soft.
Another day is coming to an end...
Li Xiao sat on the roof, scanning the courtyard of the central island, with a look of relief on his face that he was done.
Looking around, the layout of the newly built courtyard has also been enriched.
There are fields, pens, and training grounds...
The area of the pen is several times larger than that of the yard in Xiaoyingyuan, and it is no longer a fenced-in pen.
Li Xiao understood that when he came to this central island, he had to tame many working dinosaurs.
For convenience, he simply built the entire dinosaur circle into a long strip and built a row next to the wall.
Then divide the long strip into compartments, and house a dinosaur in each compartment.
Counting carefully, there are quite a few dinosaurs that can help Li Xiao in his work.
Putting aside those huge, dangerous creatures that Li Xiao simply cannot tame now.
Putting aside the things that are not on the central island, there are still many creatures that Li Xiao can tame now or in the near future:
Ankylosaurus, an expert in collecting iron ore, is a must-have divine pet.
Stegosaurus has excellent ability to collect fruits and thatch.
Giant beavers are found in the rivers in the northern part of the central island and are great at collecting wood.
The Dire Bear has good combat capabilities and can help you get into the mines to find artifacts.
The Argentine giant eagle is an excellent flying pet, and its weight-bearing capacity is also quite high.
The most important thing is that the giant eagle can pick up small and medium-sized creatures with its talons and carry them, making it a very good transportation pet.
This magical ability to transport living things can greatly improve your work efficiency.
For example, the giant eagle can pick up the slow-moving Ankylosaurus and collect metal ore from a distance...
The giant eagle can also help Li Xiao quickly tame other creatures——
As long as he digs a big pit in the ground, Li Xiao can let the giant eagle pick up the creatures he wants to tame and throw them into the pit, so that he can stand by the pit and shoot tranquilizer arrows at the creatures in the pit.
It can prevent creatures from escaping and keep you safe, killing two birds with one stone!
In addition to these, you also need to tame some other creatures in order to make them lay eggs and use these eggs to make feed.
But these are all things for later...
…
On the peak of the central island, a giant eagle with red feathers on its head is hovering in the sky.
It has been hungry for a long time and urgently needs a delicious meal.
Its eyes are sharp and its vision is excellent. It can easily scan the entire central island while flying in mid-air.
Unfortunately, the surrounding giant redwoods blocked the view too much, and it didn't find anything for it to hunt.
Helpless, it can only fly farther away...
From a distance, it discovered a yard below, with several velociraptors and a pterosaur in the yard.
There was also a stone building in the yard, and on the top of the building sat a small creature that it had never seen before.
food!
This Argentinian giant eagle knows that the Velociraptor is too flexible and the pterosaur is faster than it, so it is not a good prey, only the strange creature on the building...
The eyes of this Argentine giant eagle flashed with the desire for food, and it flew towards this creature...
"Hey hey hey, giant eagle..."
Li Xiao supported his chin with one hand and looked forward, but his thoughts were still immersed in the fantasy of the future.
A black shadow in the sky entered his sight. He raised his head blankly and saw a terrifying scene:
A huge giant eagle is flying towards my yard!
It means that when Cao Cao arrives, Cao Cao will arrive!
He stood up in a hurry and shouted towards the yard below:
"All dinosaurs, return to their enclosures immediately!!"
Fortunately, Li Xiao had just divided the dinosaurs into their own homes. After this voice, the dinosaurs who absolutely obeyed Li Xiao's orders did not hesitate and turned around and got into the circle that Li Xiao had just built for them.
Seeing the dinosaurs all enter the enclosure with a stone roof, Li Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, but when he looked at the giant eagle in the sky, his brows were still unflattering.
Although this giant eagle is an excellent tame creature, you have to wait until you have the strength to tame it.
Now, this giant eagle is a very dangerous creature to Li Xiao and the others! Once a velociraptor or pterosaur is caught by it, it will probably become its excrement in a few days!
Fortunately, I have already built the pen and it is made of solid stone. I am afraid that the giant eagle will return empty-handed.
"Wait! Why is this giant eagle flying towards me?"
Li Xiao discovered the key point.
"Oh my god!" The next second, Li Xiao turned around and ran away.
But he forgot that he was on the roof, where to escape?
As he watched, the giant eagle flew in front of him, and its two pointed claws were aimed at Li Xiao and grabbed him!
At the critical moment, Li Xiao rolled to the side and barely escaped the giant eagle's claws.
"Stab it!"
The sharp and powerful talons of the giant eagle grabbed the roof, and sparks flew out where they came into contact with the stone roof! It actually pulled out a few shallow claw marks on the stone roof!
After missing the blow, the giant eagle immediately turned around and headed towards Li Xiao again!
On Li Xiao's side, after rolling and standing still, he immediately took out the crossbow and shot an arrow at the giant eagle!
Then, Li Xiao threw away the crossbow and without looking back, he rolled and climbed towards a window on the roof - exactly where he came up.
For this huge giant eagle, if the crossbow does not hit its eyes, it will have no lethality at all.
When the arrow struck the giant eagle, it was blocked by its thick feathers, losing all its power, and could only barely pierce its flesh.
The giant eagle screamed in pain and grabbed Li Xiao without slowing down!
The claws were getting closer and closer to Li Xiao's back! Just when he was about to catch him, Li Xiao dodged again - he jumped into the skylight of the roof.
One of the giant eagle's talons grabbed the roof again.
It was so angry that it scratched the skylight with its two paws like crazy, but it was to no avail.
Compared to its size, this window frame is too small!
In the room, Li Xiao was rubbing his sore buttocks, his face full of happiness that he had escaped disaster.
Li Xiao and his domesticated creatures were hiding in the stone building, and the giant eagle couldn't do anything to them. After causing trouble for a while, it flapped its wings and left again...
The danger was over, and Li Xiao left the house, looking at the back of the giant eagle flying away, his brows furrowed.
"How did this thing get here? Isn't it moving on the mountain?"
Although he was protected by a stone house and safe, there was still another problem that troubled Li Xiao.
"Although my yard is protected by a horse, it can resist dangerous creatures on the ground, but the problem is that my yard cannot defend against threats from the sky!
This yard cannot withstand the attack of the giant eagle. It comes and leaves whenever it wants. I can escape it this time, but what about next time?"
We must find a way to cure it!
But what to do?
Erecting a net over the yard? No, with the size of the giant eagle, how big and solid a net is needed? It's too unrealistic.
Setting a trap? That’s not realistic either.
Li Xiao thought about it for a while, but there was no good solution.
For other small-sized creatures, this is not a difficult task, but the problem is that this giant eagle is too big, and its strength is not small, which makes it very difficult for Li Xiao.
After thinking about it, there is only one weapon that can deal with it - the ballista!
If I remember correctly, if I upgrade a few levels, I will unlock the crossbow, which is a huge bed crossbow that is fixed on the ground and can be aimed in any direction!
The power of the crossbow... hum... If the giant eagle dares to come again, Li Xiao will dare to stop it from leaving!
The problem Li Xiao faces now is how to upgrade quickly!
As the level increases, upgrading requires more and more experience and the speed will become slower and slower.
Calculating the experience points, even if he keeps killing creatures to level up in the next few days, it will take a week for Li Xiao to upgrade to unlock the crossbow.
During this week, Li Xiao could only place his hope on luck, hoping that no other Argentine giant eagle would come to harass him again...
…
"Fuck!&%*$#!"
Seeing the figure flying down from the sky, Li Xiao was so angry that he cursed.
Look at the appearance of the black shadow, it's still the giant red-haired eagle, it's here again!
Li Xiao directed the dinosaurs back to the enclosure with ease, and he immediately turned around and ran into the house.
For three consecutive days, this giant eagle kept harassing Li Xiao, even coming two or three times a day.
Part of the reason was that the giant eagle wanted to come here to hunt for food, and the other reason was that Li Xiao guessed that the arrow he shot that day angered it and made it reluctant to let go.
Li Xiao now extremely regrets why he shot it in the first place.
If you can't kill it, it will make you feel embarrassed...
Every time this giant eagle came, although it could not hurt itself or the dinosaurs, it kept destroying the facilities in the yard.
Especially the crops planted by Li Xiao had been completely destroyed long ago.
Li Xiao tried to stun the giant eagle by putting some raw meat mixed with anesthetics in the yard, but unfortunately failed.
After eating dozens of pieces of raw meat mixed with anesthetics, the giant eagle burped, waved its wings, and flew away...
Li Xiao lost both his wife and his troops!
Given its degree of anesthesia, even a hundred or so anesthetics would only make it fly a little crookedly...
"If I can't afford to offend him, can I still afford to hide?"
Li Xiao packed his bags, led a group of dinosaurs, and prepared to leave the yard temporarily.
He planned to go to the swamp area in the south of the central island to level up for a few days, upgrade until he unlocked the ballista, and then come back.
Moreover, it was also time for him to take over the alarm clock and other dinosaurs from the small plain.
Riding the Velociraptor, Li Xiao arrived at the swamp area in a short time.
After jumping off the dragon, Li Xiao placed a bonfire on the edge of the swamp and built a thatched hut behind the bonfire. The thatched hut was also surrounded by horses.
He will stay here for a few days, and safety must be guaranteed.
After doing this, Li Xiao took out the legendary bow and arrow and stood at the edge of the swamp.
“Let’s clear all the old and new grudges this time!
Don’t blame me for seeking your life so quickly. If not, blame me for having a plague god in my family!”
Li Xiao looked at the creatures in the swamp, as if he was looking at a group of dead things, "Bring me a message to my dead raptor Xiao Xun, just say that I miss it."
After that, Li Xiao drew his bow and aimed at a creature...
