Chapter 60
They even planned this far ahead? Hagiron, you bastard!
[You're trash, even your mortality rate is so low! I despise you!]
Did you laugh when you said that?
[Two point eight percent... Is this here to participate in a natural disaster or on vacation? Eighty percent of other species died, and only two point eight percent died. Why?]
[Natural disasters seem to have no effect on them... I'm so envious! These original crocodiles were pretty useless before, but if they evolve once, they might rise to prominence!]
[As expected, the Dragon Kingdom is a terrifying country; they have their reasons for choosing even the smallest animal! This young man's cunning is unfathomable!]
[You even planned this out? Hagiron, you bastard!]
【…】
The foreign audience had extremely mixed feelings.
They previously mocked Yuan E as a piece of trash, Wang Lin as a slacker, and predicted that the Dragon Kingdom would definitely be finished in this round.
When the natural disaster ended and the results were tallied, the original crocodile had the lowest mortality rate, so they won big!
That was a resounding slap in the face, loud enough for the whole world to hear.
The audience in China was both amused and exasperated when they saw this scene.
What exactly are they plotting?
You bunch of idiots really didn't watch it. They also attacked Yuan E and Wang Lin before!
They're criticizing Yuan E as trash, Wang Lin as a deadbeat, and the Dragon Kingdom as hopeless this round.
Later, the original crocodile became so pitiful, being chased by the canine jaw beast every day, that they couldn't bear to criticize it anymore.
What calculations, what considerations? It was all just blind luck.
Upon learning that the ultimate victor was the original crocodile linked by the Dragon Kingdom's civilization observers, the civilization observers from various countries were furious.
Jack swept everything off the coffee table, spilling red wine and scattering snacks all over the room. He sat on the sofa, panting heavily. Kim Jung-tae smashed a wine bottle, shards of glass flying everywhere, the smell of beer filling the room. The Indian player threw his phone, the screen shattering into a spiderweb pattern…
If they hadn't had so few remaining observational species that it wasn't advisable to make a big fuss, they would have probably ordered these species to kill a few proto-crocodiles to vent their frustration.
[As previously stated in the grand scheme, the observation race that survives this natural disaster with the fewest species losses will be granted an opportunity for accelerated evolution.]
[All original crocodiles begin evolving; the evolution process will take approximately one minute.]
As soon as the planner finished speaking, the original crocodile in the light screen instantly burst forth with dazzling golden light.
Wow, there's even a golden legend!
The golden light burst forth from the crocodile's body, illuminating the entire swamp.
The golden light was so bright, so dazzling, that it was impossible to open one's eyes, and that viewers in the live stream had to squint to see it.
Within the golden light, the original crocodile's body outline began to blur, as if it were being reshaped by something.
Audiences from all countries stopped arguing and stared at the primordial crocodiles wrapped in golden light on the screen.
Some people envy them, some are jealous, and some hate them.
Jack stared at the crocodile in the golden light, his nails digging into his palm.
Kim Jong-tae stared intently at the crocodile in the golden light, his eyes unblinking.
The Indian contestant stared at the golden crocodile, his breath catching in his throat.
Watching this scene, any observer from various countries who claims not to be envious would be making a fool of themselves.
They were green with envy, wishing they could replace these original crocodiles.
Why did the original crocodile from the Dragon Kingdom win?
Why should they be given the opportunity to evolve ahead of time?
Why does the Dragon Kingdom get all the good things?
Damn it, the Dragon Kingdom beat us to it in the end!
Chinese audience: [Hehe!]
【Dragon Kingdom, you deserve to die! Dominating the last round was bad enough, but you're trying to dominate again this round!】
Chinese audience: [Hehe!]
The species observed in the last round of the Dragon Kingdom observation were truly phenomenal; let's hope these proto-crocodiles don't evolve too powerfully!
Chinese viewers: [Hehe! Remember the fear we felt after being dominated by our Dragon Kingdom!]
[Never become stronger! Never become stronger! Never become stronger!]
Chinese viewers: [The alpaca is rebounding! The alpaca is rebounding! The alpaca is rebounding!]
At this moment, the globally used bullet screen channel is comparable to World War III.
The Dragon Kingdom's audience fought against all the other nations alone, and even gained a slight advantage.
If South Korea insults you once, China will insult you ten times back.
If the US hurls one insult, the Chinese will hurl twenty back.
If India insults you once, China will insult you a hundred times in return.
Even if Japan doesn't criticize, China will still take the opportunity to kick them while they're down and say a few words...
One person fighting against dozens, the barrage of comments was flying, and the Chinese viewers felt like their brains were about to explode, but they absolutely could not lose in terms of momentum!
The word "hehe" filled the entire screen, infuriating viewers in dozens of countries who immediately turned off the live chat.
Almost all countries assume that the Protocrocodile will become extremely powerful after this wave of evolution.
After all, it was a victor in the natural disaster, and its early evolution made it look golden and shiny. It didn't look like it was going to become useless at all.
Of all the observed species, most perished in the natural disaster, except for the Protosuchus, which survived almost entirely.
How could this species not be strong after it evolves?
What a joke!
Little did they know that even if a piece of trash evolves, it will at most be considered a slightly stronger piece of trash.
Moreover, your original grandfather, Crocodile, wasn't in this situation.
The only step it takes for you, Grandpa Crocodile, to evolve into Uncle Crocodile is to cut off half of his leg.
Its four long legs shrank into short legs, its body became flatter and wider, and its tail became longer and more powerful.
And then that was it.
No wings, no bone spikes, no fire-breathing, and no laser eyes...
And from that point on, your Uncle Crocodile has not changed at all except for his size.
The powerful Uncle Crocodile is a crocodile with an enormous size.
Uncle Crocodile is a crocodile with a small body size.
For specific details, please refer to the examples of Nile crocodile and Chinese alligator.
These two are essentially enlarged proportionally from the outside.
The Nile crocodile is an enlarged version of the Yangtze alligator, and the Yangtze alligator is a smaller version of the Nile crocodile.
The enormous Nile crocodile, a majestic ruler of the water, a fearsome and deadly killer.
The tiny Yangtze alligator, a cute little thing that loves to eat rice crackers and cookies, a precious creature that can't even beat the lead goose.
Therefore, the only way to determine a crocodile's fighting ability is to look at its size.
As for physical changes, I can only say there were no changes.
Don't forget that your Uncle Crocodile used the Death Roll move for two hundred million years.
Crocodiles 200 million years ago knew how to roll to their death, and crocodiles 200 million years from now will still only know how to roll to their death.
While other animals are evolving new skills, crocodiles have perfected one move to its fullest potential.
It's not that it can't evolve, it's that it doesn't need to...
Just kidding, you can't learn any other skills either...
As the golden light gradually faded, the new original crocodile appeared before everyone.
The Chinese audience, filled with anticipation, and the foreign audience, unable to bear watching, all stopped arguing at the same time and turned to look at the evolved crocodile.
Then, the expressions on their faces reversed completely.
The excited Chinese audience members instantly lost their composure, their smiles turning into smirks, and the expectant light in their eyes vanished.
The foreign audience, who had been looking anxious, instantly became joyful, their furrowed brows relaxing and their mouths widening into grins.
