Reborn As A Giant Scorpion: Evolution By Consumption Chapter 16
Advertisement
In the vast Amazon forest, there were hundreds of tribes.
The prominent tribes might have thousands of people, while the small tribes only had hundreds of people.
Each tribe had a different level of culture. Some tribes had frequent contact with the society outside the rainforest, trying to get close to the advanced civilization and update their ideas.
But most of the tribes lived in isolation and maintained a primitive society.
One of these tribes, the Nata tribe, was good at hunting.
Because of their frequent contact with modern society, people in the Nata tribe had greatly improved their ideas and hunting skills.
For a long time, they had learned modern hunting skills, and they were growing stronger and stronger and were on the verge of breaking through to become the top tribe.
Not only did they not resist the people of the modern world, but they would also help them at the right time.
But in exchange, you had to give them the best techniques you had.
Once Harden ran into trouble, he turned to the Natas and taught them his boat-building techniques.
On this day, a dozen hunting teams of the Natas were out hunting in the jungle along the river.
Their hunting targets were varied. Whether the prey crawl on the ground, swam in the river, or flew in the sky, they were all included in their diet.
Especially when it came to their archery skills, they were very proficient. Their accuracy was relatively high. They could take the head of their prey from a hundred meters away.
At this moment, Mcgee, a guy in the hunting team, made a strange gesture. The people behind him stopped walking and looked around vigilantly.
This gesture meant that there were large creatures nearby, so please be careful.
It was the secret language of every tribe. To better hunt animals, they would not use vocal language to communicate when hunting but use gestures instead.

This way, they could not only convey their meaning but also better camouflage themselves.
Because animals had a powerful hearing, when they sensed something was wrong, they would run away.
At this moment, Mcgee squatted down and looked at the traces on the ground with a puzzled look.
"Uncle, what is this?"
A fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy came over with a small long arrow in his hand.
It was his nephew, Mike.
Mcgee let out a breath and then shook his head. "I don't know. It seems to be the footprints of some insect."
The little nephew opened his mouth and looked at the footprint on the ground that was as big as his. He sucked in a breath of cold air. There was such a giant insect in this world?!
The other hunters also did not seem to believe it. If it were not for Mcgee's rich hunting experience, they would have refuted Mcgee.
They were inexperienced but not fools.
Looking at the puzzled expressions of his clansmen, Mcgee knew that this was too absurd. If he had not seen it with his own eyes, he would not have believed it.
But his many years of experience told him that this was the footprint of an insect.
Thirty years of hunting experience wouldn't be wrong.
But what kind of insect would have such a big footprint? If this were just a footprint, then the main body of this footprint would be so big.
Mcgee didn't dare to imagine.
If it was a herbivore, there was no need to worry. If it were a carnivore, it would be a disaster for their Nata clan.
"Uncle, what should we do now?"
Seeing that his clansmen were silent, little Mike timidly tugged at the corner of Mcgee's shirt.
Mcgee focused and said, "Let's go, let's catch up and see what this big guy is."

...
In the jungle, Alex suddenly stopped in his tracks.
After four evolutions, his senses had become very hypertuned. He could hear every movement within five hundred meters.
He sensed that there was a group of creatures following him from behind.
"Someone even delivered themselves to me. Then I won't have mercy," Alex sneered.
Although Alex was only interested in mutated creatures now, he could only accept it with a smile if someone delivered themself to him.
No matter how small a fly was, it was still meat.
"Hmm, it's a group of creatures that are walking upright. Could it be humans?"
Alex's smile grew wider.
He generously stopped at his original spot and waited for the arrival of the group. Compared to mutated creatures, the evolutionary energy of humans was still considerable.
It would depend on what these people did.
Although he did not take the initiative to hunt humans, if the humans made the first move, Alex would not let them off.
About five minutes later, a group of people wearing animal skins and holding longbows appeared.
Alex waited for them to make the first move. If these people acted rashly, he was confident that he could end the battle within a minute.
Then, he would have a good meal.
When he saw Alex, Mcgee was stunned, Mike was shocked, and the other hunters were also shocked.
The atmosphere suddenly became strange.
A group of people and a scorpion, two different camps, were in a stalemate, staring at each other.
Alex thought to himself, 'You guys make your move; as long as you make your move first, I can eat you all.'.
But in the next moment, the group of people roared, and all of them ran back in fear. In the blink of an eye, they disappeared without a trace.
Alex was stunned, and there was a hint of disappointment in his eyes.
But soon, the group of Aborigines returned. Under Alex's astonished gaze, they knelt on the ground.
What was this behavior?
One of the Aborigines kowtowed and said something loudly to Alex. His gaze was pious, but unfortunately, Alex did not understand a single word.
"System, do you know what they said?" Alex asked.
The system said, "Of course."
Alex said in envy, "When will I have the ability like you?!"
There were more than a thousand languages on this planet. To learn a thousand tongues, what kind of concept was that?
"Host, as you continue to evolve, you will be able to do so in the future."
Alex was not discouraged. "Alright, I only hope to evolve this ability as soon as possible, but I don't have this ability yet. I still need you to translate it for me. I need to know what these people are saying."
The system then replied, "Host, they are kneeling before you, saying that you are the messenger of the True God."
"Messenger of the True God?" Alex was stunned.
"Yes, host. They have been praising you and expressing their endless yearning and worship."
However, Alex knew very well that he was not the messenger of the True God. These people must have made a mistake.
He no longer paid attention to these people and turned around, preparing to crawl into the depths of the jungle.
At this time, the lead hunter saw Alex leave and immediately became anxious. He knelt on the ground and shouted as he crawled.
Some of the others wailed and chased after Alex.
