“This monster looks a little strange…”
While speaking, Simmons pulled out his sword and used it to pry open the monster’s mouth.
There was still half of the black puppy’s foreleg inside. At this moment, the puppy had already been swallowed into its stomach.
“This monster, we call it a jackal.”
“It’s a very, very weak monster.”
Simmons sized up the jackal as he explained.
“It usually moves in groups. It follows behind some other powerful monsters and picks up leftovers.”
“This monster usually avoids battles, so it’s not a big threat.”
“But our tribe has a rule. The moment we see a jackal, we must kill it.”
“I don’t know why there’s such treatment for such a weak monster, but I just obediently followed it.”
“I brought this question to my father and he said he didn’t know. As Grandpa said it every day, my father just followed obediently.”
“So I’ve been thinking. Maybe these jackals are actually a great threat in some aspects.”
Apollo listened and showed a puzzled expression. He didn’t know what Simmons was actually trying to say.
Simmons pointed at the jackal’s body. “The jackals in my memory don’t look like this. I remember that jackals aren’t this big, and their claws also aren’t like this… They also do not have spots. In short, I think there’s something wrong with this jackal, so I suggest that we dissect it.”
“Dissect the monster?”
Apollo nodded when he heard this thought, but then he looked worried. He replied, “Actually, I had the same thought, but who should dissect it? It would be poisoned to death no matter what.”
Indeed, the monsters in the swamp were not strong enough to frighten the Sky Dynasty. However, each of these monsters was extremely poisonous. It was almost like they would die if they touched them. Who would dare to dissect these monsters?
Simmons shook his head. “Unfortunately, I was too busy fighting in the tribe and didn’t learn their dissecting skills. In fact, some of my elders are very good at this…”
“But then, it’s not that it’s impossible…”
Apollo was not in the mood to listen to Simmons recall the past. Instead, he turned his gaze to Sharena.
At this moment, the puppy that was eaten as bait had been summoned back by Sharena.
However, at this moment, the puppy was grinning and looking at Sharena warily from the corner. No matter how Sharena coaxed and clapped her hands, it did not dare to go over.
“Looks like she’s being hated by its own summoned creature.”
Apollo smiled and walked over to the puppy and picked it up.
“Good boy, don’t follow Sharena anymore. I’ll give you meat, okay?”
Apollo was quite talented in coaxing pets, and soon calmed the puppy down.
“See that pile of poisonous… no, delicious meat? Go and eat it.”
As Apollo spoke, he let the puppy out and put it next to the jackal’s body.
Sharena rushed over and when she saw the scene, she asked in confusion, “What are you guys feeding my dog?”
Apollo rolled his eyes. “It won’t die anyway.”
“You have to watch out that it will bite you in future…”
…
The puppy was blinded by the food in front of it and was eating heartily while Simmons squatted at the side and watched.
Dissecting a monster while ensuring their own safety was a skill in their tribe at that time. Simmons was playing the role of a combat force in the tribe, so he didn’t have the opportunity to learn this skill.
Therefore, Simmons, who found this monster abnormal, could only watch the puppy tearing the jackal’s body to observe its structure.
In a short while, the puppy had finished eating the entire jackal and wagged its tail in satisfaction.
The puppy looked at Sharena, and the wariness in its eyes was gone. It seemed that it intended to bury the hatchet with its owner after a good meal.
However, Sharena did not look at her puppy. Instead, she pretended as if nothing had happened and looked away.
The puppy stuck out its tongue and took only two steps before it suddenly froze and fell to the ground.
“It has nothing to do with me…”
Sherena muttered to herself.
“How is it, Simmons?”
At this moment, the jackal was only left with a skeleton after being eaten. However, Simmons squatted by the side was looking more and more worried.
“Something’s wrong, something’s wrong. I can swear that the jackal’s skeleton isn’t like this…”
As Simmons spoke, he used his hands to flip through the skeletons in front of him.
From what he knew, the poison of a monster was in the blood and flesh and a small part of it was in the bone marrow. Therefore, it was not dangerous to grab the bones of a monster with bare hands.
He flipped through the skeletons for a few rounds and then pointed out at a few places.
“Here, there’s an additional bone, and it seems to be the kind that only sheep-shaped monsters would have.”
“Here, there’s a large piece of bone missing. I saw it when the puppy was eating it just now. There’s a strange organ here. I’ve never seen anything like this on a jackal.”
“And here… the most outrageous.”
Simmons grabbed the jackal’s spine and broke it open. He pointed at a small piece of bone and said, “This is the skeleton of a wing.”
“The skeleton of a wing?”
Apollo wondered if he had heard wrongly. How could a jackal grow a skeleton of a wing?
Moreover, when the jackal fell from the sky, he had seen it too. It did not have any wings.
Simmons still had a serious look on his face. His young but weathered face was enough to prove that he was an outstanding hunter. He had absolute confidence in the strangeness of the skeleton in front of him.
“There’s something wrong with these jackals. They seem to be evolving through some method…”
Simmons voiced out his thoughts.
Apollo did not understand what this meant, but looking at Simmons’s serious expression, he could sense the danger of the situation.
“Today I’ll get the watchmen on the tower to pay attention to this type of monster.”
Apollo said as he called Sharena over.
“How many pets do you have in total? I mean, the kind that monsters like to eat.”
“Twelve,” Sharena answered quickly. “But one was lost on the second floor.”
Apollo was puzzled. “One was lost? Why didn’t you inform His Majesty?”
“It’s not a big deal…”
Sharena looked sad. “We were marching at that time. I was afraid that we would slow everyone down, so I didn’t say anything.”
