All Chapters of Evolve to Survive: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

The sound of wings echoed through the forest as the Draco landed on a large open area. It flapped its wings, revealing its glorious and majestic body. Its horns, part of its current evolution, were terrifying to behold. Its body was made purely to destroy and rip apart its targets. It lightly growled to greet its challenger.  Across the Draco, there was a large bipedal animal. It roared at the Draco and thumped its chest with its powerful arms. It was a berserker ape. Its giant body was adorned with evolved muscles. Compared to the one that evolved in front of Elizabeth, this berserker ape had the time to get used to its new abilities.  It was dangerous and even David would be hard-pressed to defeat one.  

David needed to move. Each second he spent standing still or not moving towards the Draco’s nest meant more seconds in which Elizabeth to fight the Draco.    Each second wasted meant more chances that Elizabeth would die.    Looking at the super reptiles surrounding him, David immediately charges at the one in front of him.   The advance of the super reptiles suddenly stopped due to surprise. They did not expect their “prey” to advance towards them.   David hefts the steel spear, an advanced weapon that elevated humanity from a bunch of cavemen to a warfaring species. It also allowed David to fight without fearing for his weapon breaking.   Then h

Elizabeth watched both in horror and excitement as the berserker ape stood up. She saw that its ripped open chest was fully healed. Its face was angry but not of blind rage but determined purpose.  Taking a deep breath, the berserker ape releases a powerful roar that creates an invisible shockwave that affects all the living creatures that could hear it. Even the Draco was affected by the ape’s new challenge.  The Draco turns around. It ignores Elizabeth in lieu of the more powerful threat. Elizabeth saw that the Draco was grinning.  Crazy lizard… The Draco didn’t have the facial features of a human but anyone that saw it would immediately think that it had the smile of an

David slowly crept into the Draco’s nest. It was surprisingly empty.   Weird.   David looks to his small companion and looks upward. Bob follows David’s line of sight. The ceiling of the cave had many large holes that seemed artificial.    The hole didn’t scare David, it was the crawl marks that did.   The Draco doesn’t need to crawl on the ceiling… it just needs to fly.    Then David’s senses screamed murder. Dodging backward, David barely avoids the jaws of an exceptionally large super reptile.    While dodging backward, David grabs Bob and throws him upwards to o

The Draco was not a sentient creature in the way that humans can talk, understand, or think about abstract concepts but it was still a living and breathing creature. It had desires, albeit not as complex, like all human beings.  It desired food and had complex enough taste buds to prefer meals from tender meat in comparison to tough meat. It also preferred being in the sunlight as it felt more comfortable in the heat than cold. It enjoyed eating living animals compared to dead carcasses.  And just like any good human parent, the Draco also wanted its true offspring to prosper and grow up to become like him or even better than him. On top of its almost human-like tendencies, it had paternal instincts, something that humans didn’t have.  So, when the Draco
