Chapter 439: The Crisis of the Tuatara
Xu Xingchen wants to build a military port in the capital of the moon, prepare to send it to the space base of the other two planets, and also build a large space astronomical telescope. This requires a large number of ship girls to work in space and the moon. In the future, more and more ship girls will work in space.
Xu Xingchen and the Yuanwang sisters in charge of scientific research, observed the status of the ship girls working in space while gradually expanding the scale of the space girls.
Considering that the ship girls who want to work in space had to undergo special transformations, they mainly had to install rocket engines, otherwise they would not be able to move in space.
Moreover, traditional rocket engines are really a bit overwhelmed to push the huge hull of the ship girls, and can only be considered as just a matter of use.
So although the construction of the intermediate material energy system has not been completed, Xu Xingchen first replaced the power system with the spaceship girls.
Although other equipment still needs power maintenance for the time being, everyone's continuous combat capabilities have achieved orders of magnitude growth, just like traditional nuclear-powered ships.
One day after the big rabbit arrest operation, Xu Xingchen was renovating a new group of ship girls heading to space. The consciousness communication channel suddenly received news from Neptune:
"Commander, Commander, the big lizard is in trouble. Do we want to take care of it!"
Xu Xingchen just finished the transformation of this ship girl, and asked Chaoge who was following him to arrange manual care, and then took out a tablet dedicated to watching live broadcasts.
While searching for the surveillance footage of the area where the big lizard is located, we asked Neptune in the consciousness communication channel:
"What happened? Isn't the big lizard the top creature at the food chain over there, the top predator? What else can she have trouble?"
Neptune said immediately:
"The emperor also has difficult scriptures to recite. It is just a big lizard. Commander, please go and see the picture of the DXY003 device."
Xu Xingchen was already searching, but when he heard the reminder, he chose the surveillance channel Neptune mentioned. After clicking in, he took a look and immediately realized something.
This device photographed the scene above the canyon where the big lizard's nest is. Now there are two big lizards fighting here.
Two flying dragons with a body length of more than twenty meters and a wingspan of nearly twenty meters flew up and down in the sky, suffocating and biting each other, and the valley was in a mess.
These two guys were obviously fighting hard, and both sides were already bleeding, but they still had no intention of giving up.
Xu Xingchen said in a daze:
"How come these two have become bigger? Are these big lizards from other places? Do you want to compete for territory with it?"
Neptune's voice immediately rang in Xu Xingchen's mind:
"No, these two are not the big lizard we are observing. Let's observe the ground on the edge of the canyon and watch."
Xu Xingchen was stunned for a moment, and immediately took a look at the video. Sure enough, a third big lizard was found on the ground in the lower right corner.
And I finally noticed that the two in the sky were only much larger than the one on the ground, and the one on the ground was the big lizard I had observed before.
"So what the hell is going on? Two outsiders are fighting at her door?"
Neptune's voice sounded at the right time:
"These two are jealous. Look how exciting the fight is, blood is splattering everywhere. Oh, are you? Is that?..."
Xu Xingchen asked speechlessly:
"Why are you still jealous? What's going on!"
Neptune still wants to beep, but the sound of Yuanwang 1 has been inserted:
"Commander, that's the case. We have been observing this flesh-winged dragon. She is a female and is hatching her eggs.
"The two flesh-winged dragons who are fighting in space now, one of them is likely the father of its child, and the other is the new contender."
Xu Xingchen finally understood what was going on, but he still said with some confusion:
"This third party is too incompetent. The eggs are all laid, so why are they going to interfere with them..."
Neptune said carelessly:
"This is so beautiful!"
Xu Xingchen ignored Neptune and waited for Yuanwang One's explanation.
Yuanwang No. 1 doesn’t keep it a secret, and directly explains his judgment:
"I suspect that although these flesh-winged flying dragons are not in groups, their living habits may be somewhat similar to those of African lions.

"Male may fight for the right to dominate territory and fight for the right to mating of females, which has no direct relationship with the breeding period.
"Of course, this is still just a guess at the moment, and there is still too little information we have directly grasped."
After Yuanwang No. 1 said this, Xu Xingchen immediately thought of the lion's living habits, and then said with some concern:
"I remember that after the foreign male lion defeated the original lion king of the lion group and successfully fought for the rule of the lion group, it may kill the young lions in the lion group, that is, the children of the former lion king..."
Yuanwang No. 1 nodded and said:
"Yes, male lions will not protect other male children. At the same time, lionesses will not enter the mating period in the first two years of raising the baby lion, but after losing the baby lion, they will enter the mating period..."
Xu Xingchen frowned and said:
"So if the habit of a flesh-winged dragon is really the same as a lion, if the big lizard's father loses, will the child be killed?"
Yuanwang No. 1 also said:
"So we want to ask the commander for advice and whether to interfere in this matter..."
Xu Xingchen frowned and looked at the scene in front of him. He thought about it for a while with a complicated mood:
"In theory, there is no need for us to directly interfere in the life of this wild animal. Whether it is fighting for territory and mating rights or slaughtering young children, it is part of this ecosystem.
"Before our arrival, before we directly intervene in intervention, this ecological cycle is a normal state of balance, and our intervention may actually break the balance.
"But... we also have another choice. If the big lizard's child's father loses and the new male dragon wants to slaughter the young, we can save the young dragon.
"Anyway, according to the lion's standards, it is the same result for the ex-child's death or leaving. However, we took the young dragon away, but we had a direct observation sample."
Yuanwang No. 1 nodded slightly and said:
"I think the commander's advice is good."
Neptune on the other side suddenly shouted:
"The battle is over."
After hearing this, Xu Xingchen immediately diverted his attention and looked at the surveillance video in front of him.
Two flesh-winged flying dragons fighting in the air, one of them had a large gap torn by their wings by their opponents, and their bodies were unable to maintain balance, so they fell down to the ground with a tilt.
After a brief circling and lifting, its opponent roared and pounced down again, grabbed the opponent's body with both claws and dived towards the ground on the side of the canyon.
Accompanied by a harsh roar and terrifying earth-shaking, the injured flying dragon was pressed to the ground.
However, its opponent still refused to give up. He opened his mouth and bit off one of its wings.
Amid its screams, the winner let out a deterrent roar towards the sky, and then flew up to the sky again, leaving the loser to flap weakly on the ground.
Xu Xingchen couldn't bear to look at him, and sighed softly before asking:
"Who is the winner? Is the big lizard's child his dad?"
Yuanwang No. 1 said calmly:
"no."
Xu Xingchen sighed again:
"Then be prepared for action. If the new ruler wants to slaughter the young, then find a way to get the egg out."
Neptune immediately said excitedly:
"I understand, I'll set out now!"
Xu Xingchen stared at the scene for a while, mainly flew on the ground with the injured flying dragon:
"That big guy... his wings are broken. If we let it go, he will probably die, right? Can we also try to save it? Anyway, as an observation sample?"
Neptune immediately agreed:
Chapter completed!
