Lin Qiao immediately raised a hand to take off her sunglasses, then watched the thirty or forty turtles, which were even faster than rabbits, run past her feet.
Each of these turtles was as large as a washbowl. While running, they pressed the thirty to forty centimeters tall grasses to the ground. The edible thing which attracted her here were precisely these fleetingly running turtles.
Those fishes were outnumbered by these swift turtles. Before they reached the woods, these turtles had caught up with them and pounced on them. Each fish was targeted by a few turtles. The turtles widely opened their mouths and pierced their weird-looking sharp teeth into those fishes' bodies.
Those fishes had thick scales. Lin Qiao could tell that their scales were especially hard, maybe because they often ran on the ground. However, under these turtles' teeth, these scales seemed to be totally useless. The fish scales were crushed by the turtles, and the fish blood splashed everywhere. Soon, the turtles tore the fishes into pieces.
Seeing those footed fishes struggle under the turtle teeth, Lin Qiao even felt their pain!
The fishes were large in size, yet not a single fish managed to survive the group attack from a couple of turtles. Besides, these fishes weren't much different from the fishes back in the old world, except for their legs. On the other hand, the turtles had shiny sharp teeth which would make anyone afraid. Being bitten by these turtles must hurt like hell.
Lin Qiao watched the turtles tear the fishes. They were like a bunch of starving wild dogs which had finally found something to eat. They were so fierce that they fought each other even while eating. From time to time, they would turn their heads to bite the other turtles.
Before long, the few fishes were eaten up, with only their heads and bloody spines remaining. Even their feet were dragged away and chewed up by some turtles.
Lin Qiao witnessed the whole thing from the beginning to the end, which only took nearly five minutes. 'Oh well, now I know why there're so many fish bones. It just happened right in front of me!' She thought.
She looked at those turtles which had still been lingering around the fish bones. The eight large footed fishes weighed twenty kilograms each at the very least, yet they were swallowed by these ferocious and crazy turtles so quickly. Moreover, the scent of these scary turtles was actually attracting her.
Should she kill and eat these turtles?
Seeing that some turtles began drawing back toward the lake, Lin Qiao immediately showed her face and stepped on the shell of the turtle which was moving past her feet.
The turtle which was trampled by her was startled, and automatically began struggling hard.
The turtle had an incredible strength. Lin Qiao felt that she was stepping on a large dog. However, the turtle shell helped her. She pressed her foot down and pressed the turtle to the ground. The turtle struggled to stand up but couldn't, no matter how hard it tried.
Lin Qiao's strength was greater than that of a bull, and the turtle was just a turtle.
While struggling, the turtle turned its head back to try and bite the foot which was stepping on its shell. However, as its neck wasn't long enough, its teeth couldn't even touch Lin Qiao's feet.
Lin Qiao bent over and gripped the edge of its shell. Then, she suddenly lifted her foot and upturned the turtle, making it fall down on its back with legs pointing up.
As this turtle was swinging its limbs to try and turn itself over, Lin Qiao glanced at the other turtles and found that they were all drawing back into the water.
The turtle she caught might have released some kind of danger signal that made the other turtles run. The other turtles swiftly darted back to the lake, and soon jumped into the water.
Lin Qiao immediately caught up with the turtle which was left behind. Just like how she caught the first one, she stepped on its shell and then quickly turned it over. After that, she went for the third one.
These turtles weren't as fast as she was, but still, most of them managed to escape. Lin Qiao moved as quickly as she could and managed to turn seven turtles over.
Looking at the seven turtles which were rocking on the ground without being able to turn over, Lin Qiao walked toward the relatively larger one. She squatted beside the wash-basin-sized turtle, watching it struggle.
As Lin Qiao approached, that turtle glared at her fiercely. It bared its teeth and reached its head toward her, seeming ready to attack her. 'Do you still want to attack me? Wait to see how I kill you!' Lin Qiao thought.
Lin Qiao stared at this feral turtle and abruptly gave a smile. Then, she reached out a hand, popped her sharp claws, and swung at the turtle's head.
Crack!
The teeth-baring turtle's head was cut off cleanly by her.
Lin Qiao took in a deep breath when sensing the refreshing scent of the turtle's blood and flesh and bones, then began chopping it up. Her claws could even cut stone walls, let alone a turtle. She reached out her forefinger, put her fingernail on one side of the turtle's body, then cut directly toward the tail.
Squeak!
Her fingernail brushed against the turtle shell and produced a shrill noise.
She drew a line on the turtle's body. In fact, the turtle shell had already been cut open by her. At the moment, as long as she split the turtle shell, the turtle's flesh would be exposed.
When she tore the turtle shell into two, a white figure suddenly showed up on the lawn.
Lin Qiao quickly glanced at Qiu Lili who appeared abruptly, then dropped her head to look at the turtle which was already split in two. After that, she began digging its internal organs and chewing its flesh.
Qiu Lili's red eyes were wide open. She was pouting and wearing an angry look, but at the sight of the few large turtles which were lying on their back and struggling, she immediately came over with curiosity.
She was chasing after Yang Jianhua, but failed to catch him. The latter had hidden in a certain way, and she couldn't find him any longer. She wasn't willing to give up, but still, she decided to come back and find Lin Qiao.
She found that Lin Qiao was in this lakeside park alone, so she came as well. After arriving, she saw a few turtles lying on their backs while Lin Qiao was cutting up one of them.
At last, Qiu Lili squatted by the smallest turtle to spin it with her hand. While making the turtle spin like a top, she watched Lin Qiao take out a sharp and exquisite dagger to cut the turtle meat for eating.
