Chapter 99: Gigantosaurus - 99
After Zhou Fan double checked everything and made sure that the dungeon was finished, he left it and went back to the mountain peak.
He stood at the tallest point of the peak and looked below. There weren't that many trees and there wasn't a forest for miles, so Zhou Fan was able to find what, or who he was looking for very quickly.
About 10 miles away, behind a tree, was the dinosaur that he had run into previously. This time, however, it wasn't alone.
Alongside it were many other similar dinosaurs. They seemed to travel in a herd and go around eating plants.
One difference was that the ankylosaurus Zhou Fan saw yesterday was slightly bigger than the others by about a foot. That may be due to the effect of the emerald ore it was laying on.
Zhou Fan started floating above the mountain and flew towards the group of ankylosauruses without being noticed. He stopped far above the herd and watched on as they continued their daily lives.
Over time, Zhou Fan noted that they didn't seem to have a home or even make a temporary one. They simply set up camp at night and feel asleep.
Another thing that Zhou Fan noted was that the ankylosauruses took turns guarding. That action made Zhou Fan believe that there were more dinosaurs out there. They may be even more powerful than the ankylosauruses.
The night passed without another dinosaur even being spotted and the ankylosauruses moved on at the crack of dawn. They traveled for about 6 hours before anything interesting happened.
By that time, Zhou Fan was starting to think it would be another uninteresting day, but soon after the ankylosauruses entered the nearest forest, rustling sounds could be heard.
Before any of the ankylosauruses could react, a large dinosaur ran out of the bushes and attacked the one in front. The front one happened to be the one that Zhou Fan encountered on the mountain, and it immediately swung its tail at the giant being before it could even see what it was.
The tail directly collided with the beings face and made it stumble back a few steps, knocking over many trees in the process.
After that, the battle came to a brief pause, within which a staredown occured. The ankylosauruses finally had a good look at the huge beast that attacked them.
It was 20 feet tall, 50 feet wide, and stood on two legs. It also had two small arms hanging from its body.
In an instant, Zhou fan made a name for the dinosaur. A Gigantosaurus. The reason for its name was obvious, it was huge.
Although there were a herd of 10 ankylosauruses, Zhou Fan didn't know if they would be able to stop the gigantosaurus. Even the first hit made by the leading ankylosaurus was sheer luck, along with the increase in strength from the emerald ore on the mountain.
The gigantosaurus stared at the ankylosauruses with a fierce bloodlust in its eyes like they were nothing but food. Although the ankylosauruses wanted to run, they were smart enough to know that they stood no chance like that.
ROAR!
The gigantosaurus only stared at them for a few moments before it let out an ear shaking roar and ran towards them. Its stomps shaked the ground, but the ankylosauruses stood fearlessly.
As soon as they were about to collide, the ankylosaur Zhou Fan saw yesterday swung its tail at the gigantosaur. This time, the gigantosaur raised its head and dodged before biting at the ankylosaur's shell.
Its teeth were thoroughly chomping through the armor of the ankylosaur when another one swung its tail and hit the gigantosaurs body, forcing it to let go and focus on it.
Besides the injured ankylosaur, the entire herd surrounded the gigantosaur and attacked it.
The fight was long and bitter, but the ankylosauruses managed to force the gigantosaurus to retreat.
Sadly, it managed to take one of the ankylosauruses' lives. The rest of the herd had injuries all over them, but at least they survived.
As soon as the ankylosaur Zhou Fan met healed up, they went back the way they came and left the forest in defeat.
As for Zhou Fan, he chose to follow the gigantosaur as it ran through the forest. After about thirty minutes, it reached a cave and dropped the ankylosaur before eating it.
Zhou Fan watched on as it ate, then slept. The night passed and the gigantosaur only woke up at noon. It gave out a yawn and left the cave, likely in search of prey.
Before long, it came upon a group of extremely large dinosaurs with huge bodies and necks. It didn't even spare them a second glance and walked past them. Zhou Fan assumed that neither group felt the need to make enemies with each other.
Of course, that was only because the big dinosaurs were herbivores. Zhou Fan took the liberty of naming them brontosauruses.
The gigantosaurus continued to walk around the huge forest in search of prey. It soon came upon a group of dinosaurs similar to itself, but much much smaller. Zhou Fan called them velociraptors.
Although they had a brief stare off, it seemed that neither side wanted to fight each other. After all, there were far too many velociraptors and the gigantosaurus wouldn't be killed without a fight.
The gigantosaurus once again left in search of food. Eventually, it found a group of three-horned dinosaurs.
It didn't immediately attack, but instead waited for one of them to leave the pack. As soon as it was far enough away, the gigantosaurus sneak attacked the dinosaur and killed it in seconds from behind.
As it carried it to its cave, Zhou Fan named it a triceratops due to its three horns. The Gigantosaurus repeated the process for multiple days. Zhou Fan continued to watch on despite the repetitiveness.
During the fifth day of hunting, the gigantosaurus ran into a group of dinosaurus nearly as big as itself, but in a pack.
Chapter 100: Apex Predators - 100
There were 5 dinosaurs in total and each of them was around 20 feet tall. They had small arms hanging from their body and a slightly round head.
Zhou Fan decided to name them tyrannosaurus rexes, or T-rex for short. The T-rexes were clearly excited when they saw the gigantosaurus. They looked at him as if he was nothing but prey, similar to the way that the gigantosaurus looked at the ankylosauruses.
Looking at them, Zhou Fan felt that the gigantosaurus would win in a 1v1, but with 5 t-rexes, it stood no chance. Apparently, the gigantosaurus thought so too as it started to slowly back away from the group of t-rexes.
Of course, the t-rexes didn't let it go far before surrounding it. Sensing its entrapment, the gigantosaurus roared into the air and charged towards one of the t-rexes.
ROAR!
Once the gigantosaurus reached the t-rex, it bit at its face. Unfortunately, the t-rex wasn't as helpless as all of its other victims. It fought back without much trouble and seemed fairly equal to the gigantosaurus.
It only had to 1v1 the gigantosaurus for a few seconds before the rest of the t-rexes showed up.
There was no suspense or unexpectedness as the gigantosaurus soon fell. The t-rexes had killed it without sustaining any major injuries.
As they ate at its body, Zhou Fan moved on. The t-rexes were likely the peak predators around the area, so he decided to move on to other areas and see what other existences there were.
After leaving the forest, Zhou Fan soon arrived at a swamp. Two foot deep water covered the ground. It was stinky, moldy, and dirty. Zhou Fan truly couldn't imagine what dinosaurs would choose to live there.
After traveling around the area for a few days, Zhou Fan was surprised to discover that many of the dinosaurs he saw in the forest also existed in the swamp.
The only dinosaurs he didn't see were the brontosauruses and t-rexes. Zhou Fan assumed that the brontosauruses didn't live in the swamp because it didn't fit their habitat, while the t-rexes didn't live in it because there was another apex predator more suited to the environment.
As for what the predator was, Zhou fan looked forward to finding out. After journeying through a fair amount of the swamp, Zhou Fan finally discovered the apex predator.
There was a dinosaur that walked on four legs yet still was 30 feet tall. It had what seemed like a semi-circle fin on its back, however, Zhou Fan could tell that it was actually its spine.
Zhou Fan only took one look before he called it a spinosaurus.
He watched it hunt with efficiency, despite not living in a pack. Even with its size, it moved faster than any land dinosaur Zhou Fan had seen.
Zhou Fan continued to look through the swamp for another day before he left it. Without a doubt, the spinosaurus was the apex predator of that area.
Zhou Fan continued to move around the 10,000 miles surrounding the mountain for many days before he found an incredible environment.
It looked like a mesh of the many terrains he had seen before, and everything was much bigger. There were rocky areas, mountainous areas, swampy areas, plains, forests, redwood tree areas, and many more.
If there was ever a dinosaur haven, this would be it. With the size of the environment, there were sure to be many more dinosaurs and many new species. Perhaps there would even be an apex apex predator.
Zhou Fan traveled around the big area, seeing many more apex predators than before. There were t-rexes and spinosaurus fighting each other, and even a much bigger gigantosaurus than the one he had seen before.
He also saw many new species of dinosaurs, some big and some small. By the time he had combed through half of the area, he had already named enough dinosaurs to fill up a book.
Just as he was crossing through the exit of the redwood area and entering the mountainous/rocky area, Zhou Fan felt the ground tremble beneath his feet. It wasn't fast as if a big animal was running, but slow as if a mountain was taking a step.
Zhou Fan could tell that the source of the sound was behind the mountain that stood in front of him. He quickly climbed up it and reached the peak. The sight he saw over the mountain was something he would never forget.
There was a huge oasis surrounded by mountains. In the distance, Zhou Fan could see a dinosaur as big as a mountain itself. It was hundreds of feet tall and covered with what seemed to be a rocky pattern.
It somewhat resembled a brontosaurus, but was much much bigger. Even a dragon would find it hard to match up to such a giant being in terms of size. With a single glance, Zhou Fan could tell that it was the true king of dinosaurs.
He named it the titanosaurus due to its titanic size. Zhou Fan looked in the rest of the oasis and spotted many different species. He then set off on an adventure to discover every dinosaur species and create a book detailing them.
The entire thing took almost a year before Zhou Fan finished. He had enjoyed it thoroughly.
After he finished, Zhou Fan silently left the dinosaur area and returned to the skies. Since a year had passed, the expansion of the world would be completed in a few days.
Zhou Fan had planned on creating more opportunities, but the dinosaur book had taken up too much time.
He planned to go into seclusion soon, but he first decided to publish his book in one of the celestial libraries.
He arrived in the celestial lands quickly, where he published the book of dinosaurs and where to find them under the name That_Dinosaur_guy.
He didn't sit around and wait for the results and instead started to look around the new and improved central city.
After about a year, the city had been repaired and improved to a much better state than before.
