Late at night, Viridios finally woke up from the feeling of comfort.
He checked his body consciously. The branches and leaves were thicker and taller, reaching about one meter. Viridios felt that as long as he thought about it, the leaves would secrete that kind of juice.
Consciousness extended downward. The underground rhizomes extended to one meter and were thicker. They could easily break through the underground soil and rocks. Ordinary small insects couldn't easily bite the surface of the rhizomes.
Trying to change his mental body again, the range of consciousness reached ten meters. Everything within ten meters was clearly visible. The branches and leaves of the ferns around him swayed in the breeze, and flying insects as big as ten centimeters fluttered among the grass blades.
Boom boom boom...
The ground shook. When Viridios got closer, he realized it was the group of triceratops from yesterday. Among them was the cub that almost broke him before, running around among them.
When it came within ten meters of Viridios, he tried to control it with his mental power. As a result, he felt dizzy and almost fainted again. He could only try to send a friendly message instead. The cub was affected and slowly approached curiously. It circled around the lush grass twice, then got closer and smelled it. It stuck out its tongue and licked Viridios, then opened its mouth to taste it. Viridios quickly sent out another dangerous message, shocking the cub away.
The grass began to secrete grass juice, and a fragrant smell slowly spread to the entire area with the morning breeze. The triceratops group smelled the scent in the air and slowly moved closer to it. But everyone looked at it with big eyes and small eyes. No one had ever seen such grass and did not dare to step forward. The cub just squeezed under the legs of the adult triceratops. Before the adult triceratops could stop it, it licked the leaves along the leaves and then closed its eyes in comfort.
When the adult triceratops saw that the little one was fine, they couldn't bear the scent and came up to lick the grass juice from the leaves. Viridios' mental body observed a group of triceratops surrounding him and secretly rejoiced. Fortunately, grass has no feelings. Otherwise, if you think about that scene, a group of big tongues would surround you and lick you... vomit...
The days passed like this, and Viridios' life was very simple every day, absorbing energy, upgrading, and secreting grass juice to the triceratops. Now the triceratops group treats Viridios as a treasure. Each dinosaur can only lick it once a day, and they also drive away other herbivorous dinosaurs attracted by the scent.
Many years have passed. Viridios couldn't remember how long it had been since he was reborn. Now the leafy branches had grown to 30 meters, turning into strange-looking tall grass. The root system also extended to 100 kilometers away, and the diameter at the thickest part reached one meter, which could be wrapped around the waist.
The spiritual body had also become more solid and could control objects and lives within a range of 10 kilometers, with an upper limit of 10 tons. The cub that crushed him in the first place was now the leader of the triceratops group, and it still led the triceratops group to live leisurely every day. However, because it was the leader, other triceratops could only lick one mouthful of grass juice every day. It could now lick two mouthfuls, which was still the freshest.
Viridios felt everything around him as usual. He was getting stronger day by day, which made him feel dreamy and fulfilling, except for being a little lonely.
[It has been detected that the Triceratops racial friendliness value is full. You can choose to accept the Triceratops group as a subsidiary population. Please confirm.]
"System, what is the friendship value, and what are the affiliated populations?"
[The friendliness value is the closeness of this species to the host. When all of them reach 95 or above, you can choose to become an affiliated race.]
[An affiliated race means that when the group's friendship value or fear value reaches the condition, the race can be accepted by the host as an affiliated race, and it cannot betray or disobey after being conquered.]
"Understood, confirm."
[It has been confirmed that this Triceratops tribe has become a host-affiliated race and race information has been opened.]
"Open race information panel."
[Affiliated race: Triceratops]
[Quantity: 3265]
[Racial characteristics: rough skin, thick flesh, brutal charging]
[Leader: Triceratops leader (unnamed)]
[Ding! The pet system has been activated, the pet space is opened, the number of pets that can be accommodated: 10]
"System, what's the use of pet space?"
[The host can tame the pet and bring it into the pet space. Time and space in the pet space are stationary, and injured pets can slowly recover in the space.]
[The host only needs to imprint his own mark on the pet to conquer it.]
After hearing this, Viridios became very interested and started to try it out. After selecting a circle of targets, his eyes finally landed on the leader of the triceratops lying under his shade. Just give it a try first.
Viridios controlled his mental power and inserted it into the head of the triceratops leader. He saw a ball of light the size of a walnut kernel. This must be its spiritual body. It's a bit small. Then without hesitation, he printed a mark on the leader of the triceratops. Viridios chose a newly sprouted grass for the mark, which was easy to recognize.
The whole process was completely flawless. The moment the branding was completed, a system prompt sounded.
[Congratulations to the host for successfully capturing the first pet. Please open the properties panel to view and name the pet.]
Conquer? No resistance at all, okay?
Viridios felt bored for a while, but he still checked the attribute panel of the triceratops leader.
[Pet: Triceratops leader (unnamed)]
[Age: 25]
[Intimacy: 100 (the full value is 100, defection may occur if it is below 60)]
[Strength: 50 (human limit is 10)]
[Speed: 30 (human limit is 10)]
[Physique: 45 (human limit is 10)]
[Intelligence: 3 (human limit is 10)]
[Ability: rough skin, thick flesh, brutal charge]
This pet is a bit biased. It turns out that the intimacy level is full, and he is still a fool, no wonder he doesn't resist!
Viridios looked at the system panel speechlessly.
[Ask the host to name the pet]
What is it called? I am a bad name maker, and the author is also a bad name maker (?｀⊿?)?
To put it simply, Triceratops, well...
"Just call it Mistress!"
[Pet "Mistress" has been named successfully!]
As the system sound sounded, Mistress ran around Viridios happily for several times and couldn't help but lick it several times.
About 100 years have passed. As the leaves continued to absorb energy and extend their roots, the entire area of this grassland—and deep in crust—was covered with Viridios' roots. At the same time, Viridios also collected two pets, the tyrannosaurus "Reptar" and the pterosaur "Grimlock." Perhaps due to system reasons, after becoming pets, the three dinosaurs did not age with time but instead relied on Viridios' juice properties to increase to varying degrees. Among them, Reptar, as a carnivorous tyrannosaurus, grabbed the most juice, surpassing Mistress and becoming the boss of the three dinosaurs.
I don't know whether it was because my IQ was too low or something else, but Mistress eventually became a Mistress worthy of the name.
The ancient days were lived in such a boring way.
Until this day.
Viridios was woken up by the sound of the system.
[Warn! Warn!]
[The system has detected that there will be a meteor shower that is so big that it will explode. Please be prepared for the meteorite arrival. The countdown to the arrival time of the meteorite is started..]
[29:59]
[29:58]
...
No way, why are you so unlucky?
Viridios lamented the fate of his life and hurriedly asked the system.
"Boss, is there any way to save myself?"
[Ding! The host can choose the doomsday self-rescue gift package, which only costs 108600000 evolution points. Are you sure to buy it?]
"OK, buy it!"
[The order has been confirmed, 110000000 evolution points have been deducted, and the gift package has been delivered.]
Viridios looked at the bottomed-out balance and couldn't help but lament the evil-hearted system.
"Open the gift bag."
[Ding! The doomsday self-rescue
gift package has been successfully opened. Congratulations to the host for obtaining the following rewards.]
[Time-space jump fragment (energy required: 10,000 evolution points)]
[Immortal body (extreme upgrade)]
[Pet Immortal Gift Package x 3]
As the voice of the system fell, Viridios' leaves and root system emitted bursts of colorful light, and the colorful light covered the entire area of the earth and spread to the surrounding area at an extremely fast speed.
The time-space jump fragment emitted a powerful wave of energy and space tearing, enveloping Viridios and his three pets in it.
At the same time, the dinosaurs on the ground ran around in panic, and the flying ones were ready to take off, but they were pressed down by a colorful light and became motionless.
Above the sky, a huge meteorite with a diameter of more than 10 kilometers was falling towards the ground at a speed of Mach 10 with its tail burning and glowing red.
In the next moment, there was a loud bang and the earth shook. The ground was torn apart by the impact of the meteorite and cracks continued to spread.
The Tyrannosaurus, which had nowhere to escape, was directly evaporated and burned. Only a few surviving Triceratops were still affected by the shock wave. Their bodies were torn apart by the shock wave. Among them was the leader of the Triceratops group, whose head flew to a high place, and then fell heavily to the ground, slowly closing his eyes and losing his life.
But the colorful light kept wrapping and healing them, and finally, their bodies glowed with colored light. Under the system's ability, they gradually stood up again, as if they had never been injured.
And the moment the meteorite touched the ground, Viridios had already been taken by the energy of the space-time jump fragments and left this world.
Everything returned to calm. The earth that once belonged to the dinosaurs lost its original life because of the meteorite, and the colorful light slowly dissipated, becoming calm and silent.
