Chapter 8, The Jurassic Meets the Quaternary
However, humans are not organisms that exist at the lower end of the food chain
Si Xuan was overjoyed to see Lu An's action. With a swift motion, the knife struck the dinosaur's neck, and then quickly withdrew, causing a large amount of blood to gush from the dinosaur's neck. The blood sprayed in all directions, and the dinosaur, like a drunken rooster, shook its head for a while before collapsing. After the life of this dinosaur came to a complete end, Lu An, who should have felt at ease, had a glint of excitement in his eyes. This was the first creature Lu An had killed in this alternate dimension.

As for Luan, he was the sixth to awaken. He chose the upper-middle stream. However, after Luan awoke, he clearly noticed that Kam cast a glance at him.
As for the next individuals, there is a clearly mercantile-style aunt and a taxi driver with puffy eye bags. Everyone is under the age of fifty, and Luan is the youngest.
When the Early Jurassic collided with the Holocene of the Quaternary, one was a predator that had just survived a mass extinction, while the other was a creature that had ascended to the top of the food chain in the Quaternary
Luan reached down to touch the dust on the ground, crushed the hard clumps and stuffed them into his pocket, while slowly approaching the athlete
When the two-meter tall carnivorous dinosaur jumped out and extended its hooked claws, Sihuan swung his long knife, aiming the blade directly at the dinosaur's neck. This is the weakness of dinosaurs, as well as that of chickens. The neck of any creature contains the major arteries supplying blood to the brain. Unless you are the apex predator on Earth, a long neck allows for flexible observation of everything around, discovering other creatures and specifically hunting them.

Just as Si Xuan was feeling conflicted, the female teacher Bai Lu walked over and said, "Let me handle it." Through the scene simulation, Lu An clearly observed that when Bai Lu said this, there was an expression of embarrassment and relief on Si Xuan's face
The elderly woman pointed at the surrounding jungle and began to rant. However, she occasionally mentioned supporting characters and extras. It was evident that she was cursing everyone around her. As for the others, they did not engage in the conversation and continued to mind their own business
Eight minutes later, Luan once again confirmed one thing: this Bai Lu is quite impressive
Everyone looked at the situation, and it was evident that they were all very surprised by the current circumstances. To be precise, each person generally accepted the present predicament; however, some clung to the last shred of hope, attempting to feign that this might be a conspiracy with a showy display of bravado.
However, humans are not a vulnerable species on Earth. There was a news report about two men from a warrior nation who mistook a brown bear for a zoo keeper dressed in a bear skin and severely injured it. When an adult man's fist strikes a brown bear's nose, the bear will be greatly harmed
"You must ignite it, or leave here quickly." As everyone was still in a daze, struggling to digest the reality, Li Sanxiang (a minor official) spoke in an almost commanding tone
Siyuan (the athlete) asked: "Where is this place? Who are you?"
The fifth individual is also a female university student in her twenties, with no makeup on her face. She appears very simple and somewhat reserved. Her name is Yan Yun
This dinosaur burst out from the jungle, revealing its full form. It stands two meters tall, resembling a small Tyrannosaurus rex, but its forelimbs are more agile than the shorter claws of the T. rex. Its mouth is filled with sharp teeth.
The bearded man said: "All the questions lie on your wristwatch. I am called Kam, your guide. Unfortunately, you have been kidnapped by a space known as Yuan Yi. However, as long as you can survive, Yuan Yi will provide you with a wonderful report, surpassing everything you can enjoy in reality"
At that moment, Kam walked up to Sihuan and, seemingly pulling a 40-centimeter long knife from nowhere, brandished it. As Kam revealed the knife, Sihuan immediately clenched his fist, and the people around them all stepped back, except for Luan, who did not retreat. This was because Luan saw that a second later, Kam had thrown the knife down in front of Sihuan.
How strong is the human species? First and foremost, humans need to recognize their own limitations. If one were to engage in a bare-handed fight with a gorilla, they would likely be knocked out by a single punch. In a confrontation with a lion, the immense biting force of the lion could potentially sever the bones in the neck. Facing a grizzly bear would almost certainly result in death
"Oh no, a big cockroach!" A white-collar girl suddenly ducked to the side, hurriedly standing among the crowd, carefully staring at the ground, her eyes filled with tears. She no longer wished to pick up firewood. In the face of this situation, everyone could only helplessly allow her to be lazy.
In the midst of the process, Bailu pushed her glasses with her bright red hand and turned to the person behind her, saying: "I need water for the final rinse. Who will go find the river?"
Influenced by the old smoker who was a taxi driver, a pile of grass leaves was ignited, and then everyone scrambled to gather the dry branches and leaves from the sunlit surroundings. The flames unexpectedly burned very fiercely. However, contradictions gradually emerged.
Therefore, when Sihuan rushed forward, Luan also charged a little behind Sihuan, simultaneously making his move earlier than Sihuan, pulling out the relatively dry sand that he had just ground by hand from his pocket
The concept of a velociraptor emerged in Luan's mind, but he quickly dismissed it; this was not a velociraptor, but it was undoubtedly a type of carnivorous dinosaur, standing about 1.5 meters tall, upright, with hooked claws on its forelimbs
Siyuan raised his head and forced a smile at Luan, saying: "I am afraid of poison." Luan replied: "We only eat thigh meat; the leg muscles cannot have poison glands. Moreover, this type of dinosaur, which hunts its prey using strength, has no need to evolve poison glands."
As he finished speaking, Li Sanxiang gently explained to Si Xuan and Lu An, "The smell of blood can attract other dangers, but the scent of flames can repel wild beasts"
The man with a scruffy beard lit a cigarette, and just like that, two minutes passed. The first person quickly regained consciousness. He is an athlete, standing at 1.9 meters tall, with a body full of muscle.
The fourth individual is a woman who appears to be in her thirties, a female teacher named Bai Lu
Through this information, Lu An understood that Si Xuan might have a mild aversion to blood. He might not hesitate to kill animals, but he could be unable to handle the dissection of their bodies and organs, particularly the removal of intestines and other organs
Luan has no doubt about this athlete's fighting ability. If it were a bare-handed confrontation, he could be pinned to the ground within three seconds. This is the advantage of adult strength; once the opponent grabs his arms or legs, he would be directly overpowered and brought down. Under absolute strength, any means would be futile. Of course, if armed with a knife or weapon, Luan is confident that he can make the opponent hesitate. The presence of a knife or weapon introduces the possibility of inflicting harm on the opponent, and Luan's current capability ensures that the probability of success is over ninety percent.

The bloody scene of this large dinosaur shedding blood on the ground caused great shock among the crowd, and everyone was completely convinced of what was stated on the wrist-mounted display. This is the early Jurassic period
Facing the large, watery eyes, the sand was thrown directly at it. It was a forceful throw, and this proved effective, as this dinosaur had a transparent eyelid (a common feature in birds and crocodiles, consisting of a layer of transparent skin). The small stones in the sand struck directly, causing the dinosaur to hurriedly attempt to shake its head.
For instance, that shrewd old lady, shaking her head dismissively while using a metaphorical expression, said: "Yuan Yi, coming up with such a name to play tricks, and even gathering so many accomplices for this prank, I've seen plenty of such tricks before."
Therefore, it can be said that humans are not inherently a weak species. The reason for animal attacks on humans is that humans have restrained their primal instincts. If humans were to engage in direct combat with animals, they would actually be formidable beasts. If humans were to wield clubs and stones, and create primitive spears, tigers could be driven into the mountains by humans. Elephants could be hunted to extinction (the Sanxingdui culture in Sichuan has a large amount of ivory). If humans were to take up torches, the lion prides on the grasslands would not dare to steal from human hunters.

During the rehearsal in Lu'an, Sihuan will sever the neck of this carnivorous dinosaur. At the same time, several blood holes will be gouged into his scapula by the claws.
However, soon this lady could no longer roar, as her roars attracted the strange cries of peculiar animals from the surrounding jungle. Just as everyone was puzzled about what to do next, a swaying figure suddenly emerged from the jungle, and soon an ugly large head appeared. It was a head resembling that of a lizard, but unlike a lizard, this species had a mouth full of sharp teeth. Its neck was very slender— a dinosaur.

Then someone subsequently woke up in succession. The second person to awaken was a construction worker wearing a safety helmet and a blue jacket, with a red undershirt. Upon waking, he spoke with a Huai Bei accent. His name was Zhao Chenggong
"Oh my!" that shrewd aunt shouted, immediately turning around to run. This was a response driven by instinct, as most people turned and fled. However, the predator also has an instinctive reaction, which is to immediately pursue when it sees its prey turn to flee.
In this struggle of species spanning nearly 200 million years, the species with developed brains emerged victorious. However, the situation was quite dismal; three individuals rushed out of the forest, leaving without looking back, including the small-time thug who had been licking the blade from the very beginning. The woman who had been cursing loudly at first clung to a tree, only peeking out from behind it after confirming that the dinosaur had fallen to the ground with a whimper. It was not that she could not run, but rather that her legs had gone weak.

As for the others, some were vigilantly observing their surroundings, while others cast glances filled with malice at everyone. A small thug took out a knife and kept licking it with his tongue, as if the taste of the knife was quite good
As for the three individuals, one of them is a middle-aged official with clean white hands and shiny hair, who holds a minor position in a powerful department of the county. His name is Li Sanxiang
This dinosaur has encountered a skill that no other animal in the natural world currently possesses. Throwing sand in the eyes is considered a magical attack in this era
Kam said, "Take this, and remember to give me ten evolution points when you return." After that, Kam turned around, glanced at Luan, and darted back into the jungle
Of course, as long as there are no contradictions, there is no need for conflict. The athlete began a conversation upon seeing the bearded man
As Lu An gathered firewood, he urged Si Xuan to disembowel the carnivorous dinosaur: "Big brother, just treat it like cleaning a rooster; you've already killed chickens. It's time to eat meat now"
In the current environment, if these several blood holes become inflamed, it will greatly affect the athlete Si Xuan's subsequent activities, which is extremely unfavorable for Lu An's current situation
Watching Bai Lu wield a long knife to skin the enormous dinosaur, extracting its heart, liver, lungs, and intestines, her snow-white arms were covered in red blood. Everyone around could not help but take a few steps back. This lady remained unfazed while dismembering the dinosaur weighing over one hundred kilograms, as calm as if she were slicing bread. Following the procedure after slaughtering a chicken, she peeled off the skin and discarded all non-striated muscle tissue. The bloody scent permeated the entire area. The whole forest fell silent.
After Kam left, that petty woman pointed in the direction where Kam had disappeared and shouted, "That scoundrel has escaped? I tell you, if anything happens to me, I will sue you to death in court"
Hungry humans, who are unarmed, can kill wild wolves. If we were to create a ranking of modern terrestrial predators, with unarmed humans included, tigers (Siberian tigers) and bears (brown bears) should take the top positions, while humans should rank above wolves
Indeed, the evolution of animals is driven by the principle of seeking benefits and avoiding harm, which is a fundamental rule of evolution. In this era, animals possess relatively small brains (compared to the mammals of the human era, these creatures with brains the size of walnuts are practically deficient in intelligence), and their cognitive abilities are limited, making them significantly influenced by evolutionary instincts. Upon sensing the perilous presence of a natural disaster such as fire, they will undoubtedly flee.
