Did they become their offspring?
With a dull thud, a one-eyed monster that looked a bit like a mud monster landed at Night Raid Widow Village's feet.
[Complete Earth Demon Beast Corpse (Tier 4)]: An earth-element Transcendent Creature that feeds on clay, possessing the ability to change its shape at will and harden its skin. Its crystal core is very suitable for Beast Clan Players. (Value: 7000 yuan energy.)
"Is this... for me?" Looking at the Primal Hawk's expectant gaze, a sense of absurdity rose in Night Raid Widow Village's heart.
He glanced at the wings on his back and the scattered eggshells at his feet, realizing that he had most likely been mistaken for its cub by this Primal Hawk.
Generally speaking, the cub that hatches first is always the strongest one. But... Night Raid Widow Village glanced at his own small arms and legs.
To the pair of Primal Hawks, he, this "cub," was undoubtedly small, thin, and strange-looking. Yet despite this, they had accepted him quite easily.
"Since that's the case, I should be able to sell this Earth Demon Beast corpse, right?"
With a thought, the Earth Demon Beast in front of him vanished instantly, and his panel immediately showed an increase of 7000 yuan energy.
"Yes!" Effortless!
Night Raid Widow Village danced with excitement. However, this heartfelt joy was interpreted by the Primal Hawk as a begging gesture.
Not full yet? The Primal Hawk's already small brain seemed unable to process such a complex matter: it could not understand how this seemingly overly thin cub had "eaten" prey larger than its own body in the blink of an eye!
Although this was its first brood of cubs, memories from its bloodline inheritance told it that it should tear the food into small pieces and feed it into the chick's mouth until the chick no longer showed begging behavior. Although one step was currently missing, satisfying the chick's appetite should be correct, right?
Thinking of this, the Primal Hawk flapped its wings and left again. Not long after, another Primal Hawk landed on the edge of the nest.
[Complete Blood Demon Moon Wolf Corpse (Tier 4)]: A psychic-type Transcendent Creature that can enter a berserk state under moonlight. Its crystal core is very suitable for Beast Clan Players. (Value: 8000 yuan energy.)
Night Raid Widow Village: "..." He seemed to have a bold idea. After selling the corpse, Night Raid Widow Village mimicked the begging action of a chick.
The result was just as he had expected; the pair of Primal Hawks brought back many more Transcendent Creature corpses. This cycle repeated until the Primal Hawk couple landed wearily on the edge of the hawk nest, and only then did Night Raid Widow Village stop with some regret.
Looking at the more than 70,000 yuan energy added to his panel, he suddenly felt that living in the hawk nest all the time might not be so bad?
After resting for a while longer, the Primal Hawk couple left the nest again.
"No way, you two aren't leaving one behind to watch the eggs?"
"You're so careless, what if some weirdo comes along and covets the bird eggs?"
Night Raid Widow Village stared at the bird egg, swallowing several times to suppress the evil thoughts in his heart. "Forget it, I've taken so much prey from you, it would be heartless and ungrateful if I stole your eggs too."
The Primal Hawk's nest was built on a gigantic tree, with no shelter above the nest. Because it was too close to the sky, under the irradiation of two suns, Night Raid Widow Village felt his health bar slowly receding.
"Damn it, I'm going to be roasted into human jerky." Night Raid Widow Village glanced at the huge nest under his feet, wanting to build a shelter for himself. He lifted the fluff and hay spread on top, revealing the thick and sturdy "branches" underneath.
"This is!" [Wood]: An important material for building houses. (Value: 1 yuan energy.)
Not all woody plants can be identified by the game as the material "Wood." The "Wood" recognized by the quest is a type of woody plant that is not thick compared to other plants in this vast Beginning World, but has extremely high density and toughness.
For the massive Primal Hawks, these might just be resilient "branches," but for players, this is precious Wood! Only this kind of "Wood," with a density comparable to metal, can build sturdy cities.
"It really is a case of 'finding what you're looking for without even trying'!" Such a large nest was almost entirely built from precious "Wood." How much contribution value would this contribute to their guild!
Night Raid Widow Village excitedly collected the "Wood." In the blink of an eye, more than half of the huge nest was gone. Just then, the sky was covered by a shadow again. Night Raid Widow Village froze.
Seriously, do you have to be so diligent about coming back! The Primal Hawk couple looked at each other, both seeing panic in the other's eyes. They certainly wouldn't think this was the work of their "cub." They would only think that the hawk nest had been attacked by a mysterious creature while they were away.
Only then did the couple realize belatedly: they seemed to need to leave one hawk behind to guard their nest! Actually, it wasn't their fault; if Lu Chuan were here, he would have realized it. This pair of Primal Hawks were creatures that had not gone through a long period of evolution, but had broken through to become Transcendent Creatures directly through [Ancient God's Protection].
They had no "parents" to teach them during their childhood, only animal instincts left in their blood from when they were ordinary animals. Unfortunately, even these instincts had become blurred with the leap in their life hierarchy. If it weren't for [Ancient God's Protection] arranging the program that "eggs can be hatched by sunlight," they, having lost even the instinct to incubate eggs, might have gone extinct.
After a brief exchange, one Primal Hawk remained in the nest, not forgetting to nudge the two unhatched eggs to a safer place with its beak. Seeing that there was no hope of stealing the house, Night Raid Widow Village sat boredly on the edge of the hawk nest.
Before long, he was carefully nudged back by that Primal Hawk. He thought he would have no more gains from then on, but unexpectedly, the Primal Hawk that left soon brought back a large amount of "Wood." Night Raid Widow Village quickly realized: this Primal Hawk couple knew where the Wood he was longing for grew!
Night Raid Widow Village was extremely excited: "Hahaha! Finally, it's my turn to make a contribution!" Night Raid Widow Village wanted to follow the Primal Hawk to find the Wood, but the other party simply didn't understand his meaning. Every time he just flapped his wings, he was firmly pressed down by the Primal Hawk guarding the nest. In their view, a chick should stay obediently in the nest.
But how could Night Raid Widow Village just give up? After trying again and again, he finally... fell out of the hawk nest. "Holy crap—"
The oxygen content and air pressure at high altitude were a huge test for Night Raid Widow Village's lungs; at his current level, he simply couldn't fly at this altitude for too long. This time he was really done for... Night Raid Widow Village closed his eyes in resignation, thinking optimistically: At least... this wave wasn't a loss?
The imagined sharp pain did not come. Night Raid Widow Village plunged into thick feathers. "This is... Hawk Daddy is mighty!"
The Primal Hawk that caught Night Raid Widow Village did not send this rebellious cub back to the nest, but compromised and carried him toward a forest. Looking at the familiar plants appearing below, Night Raid Widow Village's breathing became rapid.
