Simulation: Starting From Strange Creatures Chapter 96

Chapter 96 Let's lay eggs

There is a fact in nature, this fact occurs especially in mammals.

Female mammals become infertile after a certain age.

But male mammals are different. As long as they can move, no matter how old they are, they have a certain probability of retaining fertility.

Such examples widely exist in higher mammals such as humans, and the same situation is not uncommon in nature.

【In July of the eighth year, you are getting old】

Zhao Meng finally felt the breath of death.

After entering the eighth year, he felt that his condition was getting worse and worse, perhaps because he had competed with young male platypus for mate at this age.

Or maybe the grueling young new partner drained his last bit of energy, in short, Zhao Meng felt like he was going to die.

At this time, Zhao Meng imitated the female platypus and blocked the entrance of the underwater cave with something, waiting for the arrival of the last time.

Death, Zhao Meng has experienced too much, he also thinks it doesn't matter,

But thinking back on the platypus' life, he still finds it interesting, although most animals are reincarnations of courtship and reproduction, and the offspring are regarded as the continuation of life.

However, the platypus is mostly at ease.

It is also the comfortable life that makes Zhao Meng calm down slowly, not thinking about the problems of those suffering.

"The simulation is coming to an end, and it's time to go back to face real life. I don't know what kind of entries can be extracted this time?"

Zhao Meng fell into a deep sleep. At some point, a line of words suddenly appeared in front of his eyes:

【Simulation successful】

Looking at these words, Zhao Meng was in a daze for a moment, and then he felt the body of a human, and the influence of the platypus was also cleared by the phantom,

"Death from sleep is a good ending."

Zhao Meng muttered, and opened his eyes. It was still the familiar thatched cottage, and it was still pitch black outside.

"You're weird!" Zhao Meng, who just came back, suddenly heard a cold voice.

Hearing this voice, he was still a bit stunned, and then he realized something and looked towards the corner of the house.

There is a metal box standing upright, and the sound is coming from inside.

"What's weird?"

However, in the face of Zhao Meng's rhetorical question, the metal box fell silent again. Seeing this situation, Zhao Meng shook his head, and didn't say anything more to the Yin Ji Dagu.

"Draw the entry first!"

Zhao Meng directly closed his eyes, and his consciousness came to that piece of virtual space.

At this time, the colored light group representing the platypus has turned white, and at the same time, a shiny lottery holder appeared in front of the phantom of the human head and snake tail.

"I hope to extract the paralysis."

Thinking about the purpose of this simulation, Zhao Meng didn't hesitate, and shook the stick as soon as his consciousness moved.

Soon a blue light appeared in front of him, and when the blue light dissipated, Zhao Meng sighed helplessly when he saw the content of the entry:

"It's not paralysis!"

【Fat Oil (Blue)】

"You will have special oil glands that secrete special oils."

"So that's the function!" Zhao Meng secretly thought, and then thought of the possible usage of the entry.

In ducks, there is a special gland near the buttocks.

This gland secretes waterproof oil, which ducks usually apply on their bodies from time to time to facilitate their activities in waters.

In addition to the duck-like mouth, platypus also has such a structure in a certain part, and it also needs to smear and maintain its fur on its body from time to time.

It can be said that the platypus is a creature with its own protective fluid.

"It has a special function. Could it be that it has other functions besides waterproofing?"

"Speaking of which, I don't have hair covering my whole body, so what's the use of applying this oil on my body?"

"Could it be that the simulation system has strengthened this entry in some way."

Zhao Meng thought for a while, and recalled that when he simulated this magical animal, he didn't seem to find any other outrageous effects.

"I can't figure it out!"

"That's all! I won't extract such strange entries, let's go to the next one!"

Zhao Meng's mind moved again, and a dazzling light radiated from the lottery:

"Withdrawal!"

However, looking at the golden entry, Zhao Meng was not happy at all.

What he wants is 【Paralysis】ah.

At this time, the golden light dissipated, and the content of the entry appeared in front of him.

【Egg-fetal duality (golden) (why not yet) (coach)】

"You can let your unborn offspring transform into each other in terms of oviparous and viviparous."

Looking at the content of the entry, Zhao Meng said in his heart, as expected:

"The content of the entry is not different from what I guessed!"

"But what's the use of just transforming eggs and embryos?"

Thinking of this, Zhao Meng glanced at the content of the entry again,

He has simulated so many animals, and he understands the various characteristics of animals.

He also knows a little bit about the difference between an egg and a fetus.

The advantage of viviparous birth is that the cubs can quickly adapt to life in nature, such as some cloven-hoofed horses, sheep and other creatures.

They are born able to run and jump, gaining the ability to move.

Human beings are, in a sense, premature babies.

However, viviparous birth requires the mother to pay the price of pregnancy, and needs to double the energy obtained from the outside world to replenish physical strength.

The resulting reduction in mobility and the dystocia caused by childbirth will all lead to a significant increase in the risk of pregnancy for female mammals.

Dan Sheng is different,

The cost of caring for the cubs that parents need to pay is greatly reduced.

Some reptiles even only need to bury their eggs in sandy land, wet soil on the shore, or rock crevices with a suitable temperature, and just wait for the natural temperature to be suitable for the eggs to hatch freely.

And most reptiles will ignore their offspring, let the offspring obey the destiny and experience natural elimination.

As a result, the survival rate of offspring will also become a question.

However, Dan Sheng also has many advantages,

If there is almost no dystocia, and a large number of eggs can be laid at one time.

If there are some nest-protecting behaviors, or simply hatching their own offspring like birds, it can also increase the fertility rate of offspring to a certain extent.

"And if you turn the pregnant offspring into eggs!"

"Then you can take the offspring with you, and wait until you find a suitable place to hatch the eggs."

"In a sense, if humans have this skill, can they avoid dystocia?"

"and…"

The female ghost with the head suddenly appeared in Zhao Meng's mind. These days, those female ghosts have been pestering him endlessly.

He also gave that female ghost a lot of [love].

However, there was still no sign of the offspring of the female ghost with the human head being born, which made him doubt whether the female ghost with the human head had a difficult delivery.

"If you turn the child of the female ghost with the head into an egg, will it change some of the current status quo?"

Thinking of this, Zhao Meng felt a little emotional when he saw the golden entry.
