“Damn it! Is there a hyena plague?!”

Pairs of yellowish-green eyes appeared in the night on the grasslands along both sides of the river.

The group, huddled inside the circle of adult long-necked dinosaurs where the young dinosaurs were resting, was suddenly awakened by the players on night watch.

The adult long-necked dinosaurs also came to their senses at this moment, standing up and emitting rare, threatening low roars from their throats, as if trying to scare away these uninvited guests.

“Get up, quick, and grab your weapons.”

Everyone woke up. Except for the players guarding the young dinosaurs, the rest climbed onto the adult dinosaurs’ backs. They soon saw hyenas surrounding them from all directions.

Countless eyes in the darkness stared straight at them. For a moment, everyone lost count.

“Aren’t there at least a thousand of them?”

“Damn it, you’re not kidding me! This is too much!”

Mingmei gasped, gripping her two bone knives tightly. She looked worriedly at the young dinosaurs in the center of the circle and said, “These hyenas rely on their size advantage; they’re small and fast. Even if these desolate beasts surround them, there are still gaps underneath…”

“The people below are in more danger.”

Everyone thought the same. After spending so many days together, even though the desolate beast cubs were bigger than them, they were really cute. What was going to happen with these hyenas targeting them?

“Besides the cubs, everyone needs to be careful.”

The players below had already formed another circle to protect the cubs. The cubs in the center were also mooing, causing the adult dinosaurs on the outermost ring to emit threatening low roars from their nostrils at the approaching hyenas. One even stomped a hyena that charged forward into a pile of meat.

“Not good!”

In just the time it took to lift a foot, the hyenas in all directions moved instantly. Those that were stepped on were out of luck, but those that weren’t took advantage of the gaps between the dinosaur’s legs and charged in!

A bone knife flashed, and Hu Ge’er directly split a charging hyena in half!

The reactions of the others were equally swift, and they attacked the moment the hyenas charged in!

Some were impaled on the ground by a bone spear, while others were hacked by bone knives, their blood splattering everywhere.

“Lu Xiaoyao?!”

Mingmei and the others, standing on the adult dinosaurs, realized that the gaps below were too big. The adult long-necked dinosaurs immediately changed formation, and the protective circle contracted.

The seven adult dinosaurs instantly lay down on the ground, sealing the gaps below. The other three surrounded the circle, stomping their feet wildly!

But this couldn’t stop the hyenas’ frenzy. Seeing more and more hyenas in the darkness, they tried to jump over the dinosaurs lying on the ground or—it would be worth it to bite one of the people off their backs!

Mingmei shouted at Lu Xiaoyao and directly raised her twin knives, slashing a hyena that was trying to sneak attack Lu Xiaoyao in half.

Lu Xiaoyao, who was pulling up a player who had just fallen, suddenly heard Mingmei’s shout. When she turned her head, her face was instantly splattered with blood.

“Hurry!”

Mingmei, having slashed two charging hyenas in a row, saw that Lu Xiaoyao was still squatting there pulling people up, and immediately urged her.

“Okay, okay!”

After responding, Lu Xiaoyao didn’t have time to wipe the blood from her face and took a breath, pulling up two people.

Wang Wenfei and Merui Ta were pulled up, and Merui Ta’s long knife was still covered in blood.

When the two of them had fallen below, hyenas had tried to pounce on them. Merui Ta, while being pulled by Wang Wenfei with one hand, had killed several hyenas.

Because the movements were too violent, it was already good that Lu Xiaoyao hadn’t let go, let alone pull them up, so she was delayed for a while.

“Thanks.”

After saying this, Merui Ta breathed a sigh of relief. The awkwardness she felt being beaten by Lu Xiaoyao before had finally disappeared during this game.

She felt that getting along with others on an equal footing was actually pretty good.

“You’re welcome~” Not noticing the meaning in Merui Ta’s words, Lu Xiaoyao smugly picked up her bone knife and said, “I’m pretty strong!”

“Hiss!”

Without paying attention, a hyena suddenly pounced on Zhen Hu’s arm and bit him. Before the hyena could clamp its jaws shut, the dinosaur cub turned its head and bit the hyena’s tail, pulling it away. But the sharp teeth still left a cut on Zhen Hu’s arm!

“Damn it!”

Stimulated by the pain, Zhen Hu’s temper flared, and he hacked at the hyenas with even more force.

The longer the battle lasted, the stronger the bloody smell in the air became, until late at night, the piles of hyena corpses finally scared the last wave of hyenas away.

They came in the thousands, and left with only a hundred or so, but their momentum was far less than when they first arrived.

Looking at the dispirited hyenas, tails between their legs, slinking away, the exhausted crowd who had fought for most of the night suddenly howled in cathartic release!

“Aaaaaah—!”

Tonight was truly a narrow escape!

If it weren’t for these dinosaurs, Mingmei and her group wouldn’t have survived this migration.

Similarly, without Mingmei and the others, few of these dinosaur cubs would have survived.

As dawn approached, the dinosaurs went to the river to drink and feed. Mingmei and the others also changed to a cleaner place to rest. They treated their wounds as needed. Mu Chen had prepared a lot of herbs before winter, but he didn’t expect to use a third of it tonight.

“Mu Chen, um… give me some of that herb.”

Just as Mu Chen was applying medicine to Mingmei, Zhen Po came up to him and asked for a lot of herbs.

Mu Chen looked at the amount he was taking, startled at first, then looked up at him and asked, “Is your brother’s injury very serious?”

“No, it’s for those over there… can they use it?”

Zhen Po pointed to the cubs who were being licked by the adult dinosaurs to heal their wounds. One of them had nearly a quarter of its tail bitten off, and blood was still oozing out.

“My brother said they’ve helped us several times.”

“It should work; it’s all for stopping bleeding, but I don’t know if they’ll accept it after we apply it and bandage it.”

Mu Chen nodded and didn’t stop Zhen Po.

“Hahaha, that’s good, that’s good.” Saying that, Zhen Po happily took the herbs and found Zhen Hu, asking his brother to take him to apply the medicine to the dinosaur cubs.

Whether it was Mingmei’s illusion or not, after this incident, the dinosaurs’ attitude towards them became even better.

For example, when they rested and then climbed onto the dinosaurs’ backs to continue traveling, the dinosaurs would stretch out their tails for them to ride on. Then, they would lift their tails, letting Mingmei and the others slide down their backs as if they were on a slide.

In this way, everyone migrated for nearly half a month. Along the way, they encountered several attacks from carnivorous dinosaurs other than hyenas.

However, their numbers were smaller than the hyenas, but they were a bit bigger.

But they weren’t that much bigger. After the players and adult long-necked dinosaurs worked together to drive them away, everyone’s combat skills had improved a lot after all the battles along the way.

As the days of migration increased, they encountered more and more migrating animals, which also proved from the side that some unforeseen danger was approaching…
